Email exchange with no security? - Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I hate hate hate unlocking my phone every single time I need to use it...I have exchange because of work and came from an S4 with no exchange security but have not been able to figure it out with this device.
A lot of good things about this phone and a lot of little things I frown upon and makes me re consider since I'm still in my 14 day window.

Not quite sure what you are asking... Are you asking if the phone would auto unlock or your Microsoft exchange email server to have security turned on?

When I set up exchange though the email app for work it requires a pin to unlock the phone for security reasons. With my S4 I was able to bypass being that it was rooted and running a rom but I can't figure it out with this phone.

Awesome I'll give it a go once I get the recovery installed...I just have root right now.

It's going to be tough to flash the exchange hack posted above on a device with a locked bootloader.
Try Enhanced Email or Touchdown - both allow you to bypass exchange server enforced security.

Yeah and from reading its not for stock Roms its for custom so I didn't bother flashing.
I would try them but aren't both paid apps? I'm definitely not trying to spend money for something towards my job lol

As far as I know there is no free app to offer than functionality. I bought Enhanced Email years and years ago. $20 over a year or years really not that much money if the PIN bugs you that much.

360 live app gone!

So I paid for the app among how many thousands of other ppl and Microsoft decides it wont allow 3rd party apps to gain access to an account that we the gamer/consumer pay for and google does nothing but pull the app or apps from the market and issues no refunds what the heck is that about ...its not about the money its about the poor business practices and the lack of protection of the consumer

I use an app called XBOX Live Statistics. It's nice because I can see if my friends are online or not, and I can send them XBL messages from my phone. It's a little slow, but worth the load time.
Its the fact all of us who paid for an app can now no longer use it and we got no refund from the dev or google but everyone will cry like babies about pirated software and protecting their work well im saying what's protecting our (the consumer) money.

I have paid for both apps and now I wont get updates to any of them... Nor will I get a refund for either of them. I dunno who I am displeased with more Microsoft, Google, or the app Devs
I also payed for this app... I got a bit pissed off when I noticed it wasn't available anymore

Absolutely not the devs or Google. Microsoft is at fault here. They disabled access and there was nothing anyone could do about it. Google could have given you the money back but you shouldn't be mad at them.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using Tapatalk
I didn't even know about this. I have xbox live statistics. Is the app no longer working? I haven't checked it in a day or so, but have a widget that treks me if I have any messages or how many of my friends are online. This is a real bummer and I hope the consumers show enough outrage that they allow access once again. This affecting other mobile platforms as well?

Yup that's exactly why these apps are useful. No need to keep booting up the Xbox or load the bloated website.
Removing access is not cool at all.
Buy a ps4 like iam going to I was a big xbox fan and I still like my 360 and xbox1 but after 4 POS 360s I will not buy the next xbox! And I did not buy win7 becuz M$ riped us 360 owners off with defetive ****y hardware! M$ really Sucks it all started after Bill gates left

They only pulled it because it cost money. Had it been free it would have stayed. That's their policy on the iPhone app store thus I assume the same thing here

[Q] Transfer paid apps to another account?

I dont know if this is the right place to post this question but here goes
I have a lot of paid apps that I never ever use like beautiful Widgets and launchers and stuff, is there a WY to transfer them to another Google account say my gf so she can have them?
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using xda premium
Possible, but she will not receive any updates. From the time you transfer them, i would imagine that they would be deemed as warez?
Regards
I was hoping to have them linked to her account so she could get updates and it removed from mine, they should have a gift system put on
Sent from my HTC Desire HD using xda premium
Not possible as far as I'm aware. But i agree, the gift system is a good idea.

Good idea, but just to remind you, updates will be impossible. But the App shouldn't change a drastic amount anyway.
Then again you could use your backup periodically to update her apps?

Actually, it depends how trusting and honest your relationship is... You can add your account to her phone, since the market allows for account selection now. This would (of course) give her access to your contacts, gmail, etc. But that is the only way I know to do this.

Can I somehow send/receieve txts to another VZW SIII # that has been blocked?

One of my friend's and I text a lot (well, we did) until her dad noticed we were texting at late hours and he blocked my number on her phone....so she cannot send texts to me and my texts don't get to her. This was all while she had a "dumb" phone, but recently she got an SIII.
Is there any way to get around this now that she has a smartphone? I'm talking about regular texts and not having to use a special app (i.e. Facebook, Skype, etc.) to send texts back and forth. She is currently unrooted and thus running stock JB obviously.
Would rooting do the trick? A certain rom out there maybe? Or is there some sort of process one can do to "unblock" my number on her phone?
Uggghh. I hate that I will have to be that dad one day soon. Thank God I am smart enough to thwart you young men.

Haha if I had a daughter Im sure I'd be doing the same thing....
But there has gotta be a way/hack/fix around it....
I am assuming that the block is on the account side, meaning she would need the vzw.com account password to unblock. If it was done on the phone itself I would imagine a factory reset would remove the block. Why dont you want to use third party apps like whatsapp? Some apps (can't think of names) can send free texts to legit cell numbers.

A Factory Reset on an unrooted, fully stock S3 will fix it you think? What about her apps? Does Titanium Backup work fully on unrooted, stock phones? I haven't been unrooted in a longggggg time.
Can't you just use an app like tikl or tango just to sent the texts. I know you said no third party apps but they are free and if they work sounds much easier than having her root and find a hack.

I know they are free and I know that we could text that way.....the reason why I want to be able to send regular texts to/from our regular numbers is because I tether constantly, every day, and my phone stays in the window for the strongest LTE connection and I use Airdroid to view and send texts from my phone while on my pc......can't do that with a 3rd party app, I'd have to get up every single time to view/respond to the texts....

Not if she gets a third party texting app that allows her to text your number from the app and vice versa.

We are trying that now with Pinger...her sending me a text from her Pinger # to my regular cell number.....but surprisingly its not working....Is this the method you were talking about?
Do you know of another app that will actually work in this way?
Well we got it to work for the time being via the HeyFree app.
Soo many third party apps will work.
Factory reset, root, custom rom will have no effect.
And what are you guys like 11? Haha got her dad blocking your number, I'm weak.
Sounds like my younger childhood

I second that. It seems best to use Google Talk or Facebook Messenger.... then you guys can be "chatting" but you can just do it from your desktop browser and she can do it on her phone.
OP, I saw you have another thread started trying to help this girl get around something else her father set up regarding the use of her phone. Let me, as the father of a 23 year old daughter, give you a little piece of advice.
He has blocked your number from texts and stopped her data at 10:30pm. He is doing that for a reason and apparently doesn't like you very much either. I understand that you think you are trying to help her, but what you are doing is causing yourself more problems with the dad. I am guessing that neither of you are very old, hence the curfew on the data. You are looking for "hacks" to get around what he has done to, what he thinks is for the betterment of his daughter. You would be better served to work on your relationship with him than to really piss him off by going against him. Just remember, Daddy's little girl is his entire world that he would gladly die for and you are going to get into more trouble that you can imagine or would ever want to be in by messing with her and his wishes.
My advice would be to get onto his good side if you haven't already screwed that up and you may find the "hacks" that you are looking for. Alternatively, you could put another phone on your plan and give it to her for texting. Good luck and remember that some things cannot be undone after you do them........
Seems like Google Voice could be a good solution.... You get a different phone # and you can send/receive texts from any PC at voice.google.com
I would say hhf2 had the best idea and option for you. You may not like it but it is the truth.

That is actual VERY incorrect. While a boy you would consider your little "mini me", a daughter is your princess. The biggest concern is that they are healthy. Sure there are things that a guy wants a son for, but make no mistake about it, there are things that you are just as proud of with a daughter.

Mail app sans exchange security / admin settings ?

Love this device. Just need to get on my exchange account without giving the IT guys at work all those rights to my device.
They' re using exchange 07 and upgrading to 10 in a few weeks.

Sent from my GT-N5110 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
You need to go with an app like Touchdown then...unless you do some major fiddling around. I think a global search on XDA will come up with some hits to a "native Android" mail app to get around Exchange servers security requirements. Touchdown is much easier...

As one of those IT guys, chances are it matters little to them.
Touchdown works well. If y'all are cloud based then AFAIK your IT dept might well have little control over the config. Native box on site, more local admin control. But keep in mind, Exchange 2K7/2K10 can get squirrely when a device other than MS connects. Apps like Touchdown do help smooth the road a bit. You may want to sit down with your IT people.....get 'em a coffee...and see what can be worked out.
