This is a tested and working Exchange Security Bypass that I am using on my AT&T LG G3. This mod should work on any variant of LG G3 that is running stock or AOSP ROM's.
All credit goes to the below developer, I was simply looking for a solution to bypass the exchange security policy that required me to have a password or pin on my lockscreen. After several tests using Xposed Framework and other APK's I came across this and it works flawlessly. You can see the developers thread here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1965468
DISCLAIMER: I'm not responsible if:
• You get caught by your employer and are punished in any way
• This bricks, breaks, scratches, dents, misplaces or cracks your phone
• This security bypass leads to any negative outcome.
USE THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK.
I have rooted my phone and used Root Browser to perform the following steps (You can use ADB as well, please follow the guide in the link above).
Instructions:
1. MAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR STOCK EMAIL (LGEmail.apk & LGEmail.odex) - Copy and place it in another folder incase anything happens and you want to revert.
*Stock LG Email is located in system/priv-app2. After your make a backup, delete the stock LGEmail.apk and LGEmail.odex files
3. Download the files attached to this post and put them in the system/app folder
4. Change the permissions of the two new APK's (Exchange2.apk & Email.apk) to rw-r-r (DON'T FORGET TO DO THIS)
4. Once the 2 files (Exchange2.apk & Email.apk) are placed in your system/app folder, click on them and install
5. That's it...close out of your root explorer, open your new email app and set up your exchange account. :good:
I hope this helps users who are looking for a solution to their exchange security issues like I was. Enjoy
Very cool. In the dev thread, it states "The app tells the server what it wants to hear - which is they have total control over the device, but it doesn't really do anything on the phone". Does this appear to be the case for the G3? My company requires the ability to remote wipe the device as well, looking for a way to bypass that.
Not sure it truly disables the company's ability to control your phone rather it just allows you to bypass the password.

If you backed up your email app as stated in the OP you wouldn't be without email. If you did back them up, place them back in the priv-app folder and reboot your phone.
Myself and many others have used this method with no issue. What isn't working?
Sent from my LG-D850 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
You seem to have flown over the whole point.
What's not working is I'm left without an email app. Backing it up isn't the problem nor was that indicated. Nor am I doubting the seeming plethora of people you state have succeeded in this.
I however, following your instructions, end up without an email app with which I can connect to an exchange account, with or without security. It's simply not there.
Sent from my LG-D850 using Tapatalk 2
All you mentioned was it didn't work and you're left without an email app so my apologies that I didn't quite follow you.
If you copied the email apks I provided to your system>App folder, changed the permissions and installed them but nothing showed up then I'm at a loss.
Sorry for any trouble you've run into. This should have acted like installing any other app after it was all said and done.
What version of the G3 are you on, what carrier?

The install went fine but there's no app in the drawer. And even if I go to accounts there's no exchange listed or email.
Not sure what I'm doing different, not a big deal, my company email can be had from a website as well

Install went fine, but it times out validating server settings. Not sure why. Maybe the server isn't being told what it wants.

This must have been in the last update. That wasn't there before. Very nice! I agree...much easier to use that (assuming it works).

I tested the tweaksbox bypass but I've had a couple issues where the exchange account got removed when adding other accounts (yahoo). Not sure if this is isolated to me or just a bug in the tweaksbox bypass.

I just flashed my ROM to cm9 from cm7 and installed the google apps package.
When I log in open Android Play (same account), and go my My Apps, all my previously downloaded apps and purchases are there still there, but none of them say 'PURCHASED'. They now list the purchase price of the app. Essentially, it's not recognizing I purchased any of my apps.
Can anyone tell me why this is happening?
EDIT: If I go on my computer and visit https://play.google.com/store, My purchased library still exists and I am able to install it via send to phone.
So really, it's a matter of inconvenience.
I read an Engadget article saying this is happening to a ton of people and Google is aware and working to rectify it.

Here is the latest facebook official app with location 'feature' removed.
I am not sure if you guys who use the app know this, but facebook constantly tracks your location. There is a receiver built into the app that every time you "refresh" the app (Interval settings are found in the settings menu of Facebook) it gets your location and everything you do on Facebook, post a status, send a message, upload a photo etc, your location is added and you cannot turn it off..
So i decompiled the apk and removed all locations ability. That means, no checking in, no nearby, nothing that needs to get your location. You WILL get a forced close. I am working on trying to keep that enabled while dissabling the 'tracking' featrue. Just download, copy apk to your phones storage and use a file browser to install the APK.
Hope you guys enjoy the privacy while also enjoying the Facebook app.

This mod will possibly use a tiny bit less. But it uses so much for its Cache. So things are loaded a lot faster and what not.

Are you talking about turning your location off under settings of your phone? Well thats different. There is no way to turn it off in the FB app itself. You can turn off the location thing for your messages but its still secretly getting your location.

Sorry it took so long. XDA is giving me some security error when i try to attach anything :/

I don't mean to hijack the thread, but a good app that stops location requests for any application is LBE Security Master. It will prompt you each time an application requests to use certain permissions. You can also check a box to never allow the application to access that setting, in this case it would be location.
Just search on XDA to find it, I'm on my phone and I don't think the app is on the market.

Whenever i tried using a third party app to block GPS to the Facebook app, it would cause the FB app to force close irregardless what you did.
I'll try the app and see what happens. Not sure how it goes about granting and denying access. In all honesty i was looking for something like this.
Just don't use LBE Privacy Guard on jelly bean, it caused my phone to freeze a few minutes after turning on and then rebooted and got stuck in that loop. The only way to resolve it was to use adb and remove the apps file.
The app I mentioned in my post above doesn't seem to have any issues besides that parts of it are in Chinese.

As far as I can tell it does. When I open Facebook, LBE pops up and asks me if I want to allow Facebook to track my location. It detects whether Facebook is using location tracking through WiFi or through GPS. I have not checked to see my posts to see if location is attached to them.

Interesting.. I wonder if it's blocking "locationmanager.getlastknownlocation" as well. This method doesn't access any hardware. It just reads what the last location known was. Meaning if any other app has access to your GPS and gets a lock, that location is remembered and then used by above method.
I feel much more comfortable completely removing the actual physical code no offence to your option though.
And for a thread update, I learned a new tool to help figure out what gets called where. so I might be able to add the ability to check in as well as use "nearby" in the app. And just disable the tracking!

Sort of. I know when notifications are enabled there is a service running. Also what's your refresh interval set at? If that's not disabled then that's what the service is.
If not it may just be in "empty applications" part of androids memory manager. Meaning it's dead but still there to increase launch time. I'm running cm10 and I use the "hold back to kill" option on Facebook so mine is 100 percent gone.

Almost all antivirus companies have device tracking enabled through web.if you configured and recalled the data.you can track the location of phone and can remote swipe/sms and many more.I have tested that using kaspersky and NOD32 and webroot.this is the only chance to track else after stolen people throw away SIM,format the phone or change the IMEI so impossible to track back.
I'm using avast! (Free) It has quite an extensive lost/stolen system built into it aswell as all the antivirus stuff. One thing I like about avast! (Not sure who else has this) it has a setting called 'Geo fencing'. Once set, if your phone leaves a, user set, distance from your current point, it automatically locks your phone and triggers any other protection activities, and sends a SMS to a pre-set cell number. Good for night clubs or busy shopping malls incase you get pick pocketed.

Avast! is pretty good when it comes to tracking.

Android now has a built in phone locator which can be activated in Settings > Security > Device administrators. Check Android Device Manager.
Uses Google's push service so it doesnt poll battery.
Link to web interface: https://www.google.com/android/devicemanager
In addition, I use AndroidLost from Play Store. Runs through Google servers so no background usage. Has an advanced plethora of controls on the web interface. Check it out.
Google Device Manager
I have enjoyed using Google Device Manager. It has the ability to ring my phone for 5 mintues so I can find it easier. As well as the ability to locate it. Although like everything else depends on data connection. So if I lost in a park with a dead battery... NO DICE.

AndroidLost supports SMS controls. You could send an SMS message to activate GPS and auto reply the location, or you could send a message to enable WiFi/data and track that way.

agreed, i use android device manager. used to use the samsung version, but now that google offers it then i'll use that one.
I used to use Avast, but now I can just use Google's Device Manager or even CyanogenMod's which is crude for now.
Device manager seems to work well. It allows you to locate the device from another browser using Google maps, allows yo to ring the phone even if it's on vibrate or silent and once set up allows you too lock/erase all data from it.

Actually, this is a really important point. Which of these apps are still able to perform their advertized functions after it is being lost? Supposedly, whoever is in possession of the phone will through out SIM card and do a factory reset so all apps that use google services will not work anymore as they are Signed out... Are apps from antivirus suites immune to this?
I really like the new AOSP mail app for 4.4 and was bummed to find the 4.4 KitKat update for the Droid Maxx doesn't have it. Is there anyway to install it without crashing? I've tried copying the email and exchange2 apks to the system/app folder and all it does is force close after restart and clearing cache and app data. I'm sure there is more to this.
I too am interested. It would seem it needs a signature change or somehow pushed to the system app folder without root, but I'm inept in such matters

Just install both the Email and Exchange .apk's (download at bottom of the page).
One note: There is a bug in this version with the "push" sync option that causes a syncing loop that will suck your battery's power in no time. The temp solution is to set the sync to 5 mins (or more if you want).
Sweet, that one actually works! Now all we need is ver 4.4.2 that has the sync fix and pin bypass.

I tried opening both of the APKs direct from that link, but it gave the same error parsing the package.
I downloaded it to my phone, then opened it from there and it worked fine. Followed the instructions and I was able to fully use it.
hi, i formatted my S9+ just when BK Manager and MDM Extension apks were removed from Play Store.
my question is, i have both of these apks files in my storage, will i be able to install them manually and whether the disabler app will still work as it was before? can someone kindly advise?
i have emailed the developer a couple of times asking the same questions, but not getting any response or help and was never my intent to ask for a refund.

as for the time being, is there any other good disabler app that we can use safely? i feel so lost without this app/feature.
thank you.

BK was taken down by the developer due to Samsung. That said the developer provided a work around on their development blog

A bit of work involved but the app works afterwards.

I followed this but I still can't get it to work. I don't know what I'm doing wrong or maybe it doesn't work anymore? I have recently used adb commands for other apps and they work fine.

The ADB command in the instructions is for a wrong package. You just need to change it to the one in their download link.

I did manage to get this working, but since then I've had a notification pop up on my phone a couple times which makes no sense to me. I'm wondering if this is a side effect of making that app an owner on the phone.
It tells me my phone is a "Managed Device" and that the organization may install software and make changes on the phone without my knowledge or consent.
A) That sounds scary, since I the phone didn't come from an organization.
B) Why is it suddenly popping up and telling me this? It's not asking for permission. It's not even asking me to acknowledge or read it. Just stating it like a fact. It's popped up at least twice over the last 2-3 days.
Any idea what's going on?

It's a response to trying to disable more packages than sammy wants you to. It removes a bunch of features. Sammy's way of trying to get people not to use package disabler.
What I did was disable all I wanted then uninstalled the disabler and it went back to normal with everything still disabled

Is there a list of packages that are safe to disable?
Package Disabler for Samsung is back
App Name : Package Disabler Pro+ (Samsung)
Available in google play store.
That's it. It's a one-click solution to deal with bloatwares.
Nice business model. Release app, complain that google removed it, re-release it and ask people to pay for it again.
