Remove Exchange Security ICS on Razr Maxx HD - RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I used the i click root in this forum and it worked perfectly. I now want to remove the Exchange Security by replacing mail.apk and exchange.apk. Can someone guide me through this? I tried to copy to device and install, but it said installation failed. How do i change the permission ussing commander?

Update. Ok, i rebooted, and now i have two email apps in the drawer, one yellow and white icon and the other red and white. If i select the yellow and white icon, it says email has stopped. IF I use the red and white, i can setup email fine but security is still there. My guess is the i did something wrong while installed the new mail.apk

I would follow the steps set forth in this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1948809
I have not tried it my self though I intend to later. The bottom of the OP's post mentions a script though it is not posted there.

Will the AOSP Version disable the exchange security?

I'm working on this for the JB Leak in the even that anyone cares.
I think I've got a solution.

Unrevoked Root & Recovery Mode System Mount

Unrevoked Root works great, I honestly thing it's the best actual usermode root available atm.
I'm looking to be able to mount the filesystem like the rooted roms allowed in recovery mode, can this be done?
Basically, I'm looking for a solution to make changes to NAND without using an entire custom ROM.
please search, and post in a relevant thread. i don't mean to sound like a jerk, but there are already several threads about these topics, and the more threads that end up getting made, the more cluttered this place is going to be.

You can use the new OTA update, which fixes the SD card bug, with it.
You can still downgrade to the stock image and use toast's image, if need be.

There are many threads, but none about this specifically.
I doubt this is even available and felt the need to make a thread dedicated to something of such importance.

Unrevoked is actually quite well refined, and does not require being reapplied after each boot. I am much more satisfied considering I can do this after the update AND all of Market is available with 4G access.
Both rooted ROMs have one loss, either Market or 4G...this does not.
I stand corrected...there was a thread that was buried over all the ruckus.

Open the camera again. it should work and i never had this problem again.

It doesn't work and at this point in time it looks like it will never work.
The latest software prevents unrevoked from running, you have to flash a ROM to get root.

Un Rooting The One Click Root?

Tried SEARCH but for whatever reason it doesn't seem to be working...
I could have sworn I saw a thread on "unrooting" after installing the One Click Root but I don't seem to be able to find it. Am I just missing it?
Also, when "unrooting" are things such as your email setup deleted or do things such as that stay intact?
I haven't actually changed anything on my phone since I did the One Click Root.
Thanks in advance....

[Q] Rooted stock ICS - cannot disable lockscreen

I have a rooted sensation with stock ICS. I need to enter a PIN every time I switch on the device screen, which is really annoying. I had a VPN set up, deleted it, same problem. Rebooted, same problem. I think it has something to do with the Exchange account I have set up, but I cannot remove that.
I tried the settings in the "security" section, but they are greyed out (see attachment).
Any ideas?

I don't remember which post it was, but someone in response to a similar query said that you could check out the device administrator applications, one of those would be enforcing this. In that case, the exchange app was the culprit.

Hi man,
This could be related to the info on the 2nd post.
Do you have any exchange account setup in your device? (from your company)
If yes, this is the reason, if not you may have to wipe your device and reinstall everything.

Question about installing OTA

I was supposed to be part of the soak but for some reason my phone is invisible to the Moto update servers and they cannot push the update to me. I have the update file someone gave me a link to download. I have two questions about how to install it.
1. Since I am rooted can I just put it where Moto would have downloaded it to and then my phone will update it like it got the OTA?
or
2. If I install it off the SD card will it just do recovery first and then display injured android man, and then have to reselect the zip package again to finish instlling the update?
I would prefer method 1 if possible. If one of the devs or a knowledgeable person could respond I would appreciate it. I'll give Moto about six more hours to get this straightened out, otherwise I am tired of waiting to get my Atrix 2 onto ICS.
Hi. I don't suppose the end result would be different, whatever method you choose.

Where does moto put the zip file so I can try putting it where the OTA would have downloaded to? Then when I go to check for update it should say an update is ready for installing. Do they put it in the cache directory? Someone who knows please let me know. Thanks.

AFAICT this seems true, you I could run a leak#2/soak based ROM as a second system (first system too?) with boot menu manager by following the guides:

Yes, it is /cache... but I think you also need the .crc file of the same name along with the actual .zip - not positive though. And, it can take a little while for it to recognize it - but I have done it that way, by putting it in the cache folder - also, it will disappear if you reboot.
But, you do know what you are doing, right? There is no fxz yet...
---------- Post added at 08:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:12 AM ----------
Edit.. since it's the same files as leak#2.. for the .crc file, you could just make your own if you don't have it:
-Just create a new blank file with notepad++
-Add this as the first and only line (no blank lines after)
Code:
3114145323
-Then, save it as Blur_Version.55.13.25.MB865.ATT.en.US.crc

Yes, I know what I am doing. I used to develop roms for LG P999 but have not played around with my Atrix much. LG does their OTA updates very differently and downloads them in pieces all over the place so no way to use the method I am suggesting for the Atrix. I don't care about being able to fxz back as I just want the phone on official ICS; but I do appreciate your caveat. Thanks for the reply.
If anyone has the .crc file please upload somewhere so I can grab it. Thanks.

Thanks. I will give them a few hours to get to work and see if my phone is visible to the update servers now that I have done an FDR as they requested. If so, I will just let the OTA do its thing. If not I will manually update my phone.
Also I do not think you can be rooted to update the check will prevent you from updating, also you have to be as close as stock as you can..... Meaning all bloat must be unfroze.....
One more note there is a Q&A section now so try to post questions there.....

Could the fact that you're not in the US, are now unlocked and on another network have something with failure to get the OTA!?
You can be rooted. The update asserts only check for the original system files to make sure they have not been modified or deleted. It does not check for extra files like superuser.apk or busybox. Rooting is not a problem. I set superuser to OTA protect and it worked. After the update my ICS was still rooted without me having to root it.
For the person that wants the leak the OTA is leak # 2. It is exactly the same. Just find thread with download link for leak # 2 and you are good to go.
Would installing beats audio drivers using the app be considered tampering with system files? And would it prevent me from receiving a ota?

Sorrry but what mean FDR? because I'm in that situation: Im not in US and I have the phone unlocked, and I'm using it with other operator... Is just ended the soak test?... because the phone say me "Your phone is updated, Is not required a update in this moment" (Translated from Spanish) when I look in Settings -> About the phone -> Update, and I'm have the system version 55.13.25.MB865.ATT.en.US.

You have to be someone that was invited and filled out a survey about six weeks ago. If you are you need to go to the Motorola Private forum. Go see how others are requesting it (not allowed to really talk about it). FDR means Factory Data Reset and it is an option in Privacy in Settings. It erases all your user settings, app data and you are back to square one like when the phone came out of the box. For many people it was required to get what they wanted.
If you were not invited don't worry. Usually the official rollout of the OTA will come within a week of a soak test if no problems are found. It is the same as leak # 2 so just look on this forum and you can install that manually. The release is solid so I see no reason the OTA won't be going live to all AT&T Atrix 2 devices very soon.

Ditto here too, spent half the day trying to figure this out. I noticed some DNS errors coming from the phone while doing the update. Maybe they have figured out a way to block the 0.7.2. update for just us? Anyone know of a way to load just the 6 meg update to the phone manually and force the update?
Some behaviors I've noticed:
1. erase data 4G only get error mentioned above: "Please try again later"
2. turn on wifi (and 4G off) get no message but no update.
3. turn off wifi and "download suspended" appears (and never changes)
4. reboot to 4G only, get "An unexpected error has occured. Please try again later."
Stuck.
UPDATE:
My router shows a request to ws-cloud434-blur.svcmot.com from my phone. If I change my DNS to OpenDNS (hijackers) and try to update I see references to the "website not found" garbage that OpenDNS injects. Unfortunately I dismantled my squid setup so I can't see the exact url that is being attempted only the DNS error when OpenDNS injects it. I'm tempted to bring squid up just so I can figure out what is actually being requested on the update server.
Yea I can update to the latest via the computer, but then I cannot restore root so guess I will be waiting. I piicked a great time to do this ha ha.

Both are POSTS and both return "file not found" when I try them from the browser.
Using the Motorola Device Manager. There is an option to update device. But it goes straight from the original ICS to Latest JB. Was not able to get root back afterwards. Voodoo did not even give the option. Tried the RestoreRoot script as well without success.

Yes. Temp Unroot then flashed with Device Manager. Went to Voodoo and SuperUser had to be reinstalled. Did that, still did not give me an option to re-root.

But... I think it did. I just updated two devices using the Device Update tool. This is from memory but...
1) Connect, right click your taskbar and click check for updates.
2) It will say there is a 6MB download available to go to 0.7.2, accept it.
3) Updater downloads it, reboots your phone, applies it, etc.
4) Once fully booted, it prompts again, there's a new update available.
[do your rooting here]
5) Accept this update. It will download now a much larger file (200+ MB if i recall) to get you to the latest version
6) It reboots, applies the update, reboots, etc.
Unfortunately, I was too eager to get on the latest and greatest ROM before dropping by, so I did it from a vanilla new-phone upgrade. I did not root the device.
