Galaxy S5 Corporate Exchange Mod Email Security Bypass - Verizon Galaxy S 5 Themes and Apps

It's just the stock email for 4.4.2 without the security requirement.
Been using it with my Fortune 10 company for a while now perfectly without security, I just use swipe on the lockscreen.
I also don't see why this wouldn't work with any other Touchwiz ROM using 4.4.2. Give it a shot.
1. You need root and Safestrap.
2. Remove current email apk and exchange apk first, with Titanium or another.
3. Flash zip in Safestrap.

Fixed in OP.

I flashed this to my 4.4.2 S4 with Insane KK v11 rom and it works great except it force closes when I try to go into the settings to adjust the sync frequency.
Are there any ideas on how to clear this issue or find another APK that works with 4.4.x?

Where are email.apk and exchange.apk files located? I've searched for them and can't find them. /system /app? Or could they be another file name on a Sprint s5.
Thanks.

Exchange security bypass!

As far as I know this only works on the rooted AT&T version and that's because I didn't create it and that's the only version I've tested it on.
If you download this:
http://d-h.st/z9O
And remove the two apks for email and exchange....
Then I booted into recovery mode and deleted both the existing email.apk and exchange.apk as well as the odex files
After that, I copy and pasted the apks from the zip into the app folder and rebooted the phone again.
Voila!
It didn't work perfect the first time and I got a bunch of force closes. After doing it again I didn't get any so if it works for you you shouldn't have any force closes.
For what it's worth I don't take credit for the zip and I don't take responsibility for If anything bad happens to your device..
I would recommend making a backup of the existing apks in case anything goes wrong.

Personally, I just used the xposed module to bypass exchange security. i would rather not have to replace APKs if possible.

Install Xposed and go to the modules tab and install "Exchange Bypass." Add your exchage account AFTER you install and enable the module and the security is gone.

[WIP] Dark CM Messaging App for 4.4 (NO ROOT NEEDED)

So, I updated to kit kat, only to discover that with the new "Default SMS app" feature, you can't just use old SMS apps. Well, I don't really like using Hangouts as my SMS app, and the stock Mms app lacks quite a few features i really like from CM's Mms app. Plus, I really like dark themes.
Well, of course I simply tried to go ahead and use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1745830 , but because that doesn't include the new information, it isn't seen as a possible "Default SMS" app, and can't be used. Well, I wasn't okay with this...
Dug into apktool and messed around in the AndroidManifest.xml, added the appropriate bits and pieces for it to be discovered by 4.4, and recompiled, and then signed. Voila, I have a working, dark themed, CM version of 4.3 Mms, with popups and all. I've tested that both sending and receiving of sms (in app and from popup) and mms all work.
If people are interested, I can post it up for download. Not sure about all the rules though. I assume I'd have to ask for permission from the OP of that thread I linked above?
EDIT:
Okay, so I've got the 4.3 CM messaging app linked from above. I've updated it to work with 4.4 (allowing it to be a "default SMS app") and also went and modified all the smali and xml with a new package name and a couple new authority/provider names to avoid conflict with the stock app.
Final takeaway: a themed, customizable (see settings), popup-enabled, emoji-supporting 4.3 messaging app that not only works on 4.4, but can be installed without root alongside your stock Mms app. Should work on 4.2 and up, on any variant, rooted or unrooted. Simply download, install with adb or by transfering it to the phone and opening on there, and then go to settings->More->Default SMS app and enable this one (the dark icon "Messaging" one).
I tested sending and receiving sms and mms, sms both from app and popup. everything was working fine. If anyone finds an issue just let me know and provide log cat output if you can, or at least a repro case
EDIT2:
Apparently there are still some kinks I need to work out. Will try to look into it this weekend.
EDIT3:
Okay so I did the version that works on 4.4 for rooted users. This one only has the AndroidManifest edits, so there should be no issues with functionality. I've been using it for a bit now and haven't had any issues. The one labeled Mms.apk is for root users (Nothing about installing/using it requires root, but you have to uninstall the stock messaging app to put this one on). The one labeled Mms2.apk is the (currently kinda buggy) version for those without root. That one is still a work in progress.
That would b awesome if u could share , now would this only work if u r rooted?

I haven't tested, but it should work without root. You can install it just like a normal app, and it gets installed to /data/app. I suppose the concern here is getting rid of the old messaging app, which does require root. I'm pretty sure if you tried to install this alongside the stock app, it would complain about having the same package name. I'll test and let you know soon.
Go get this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.thinkleft.eightyeightsms.mms
It works great and has a dark theme option in the settings, the developer pulled the CM MMS app and made it an installable on KitKat and a few tweaks, feels just like the original CM MMS app and even has the quick reply popup option.

The blue drives me nuts now. I really like the monochromatic look of kit kat. I think I'll take this app and theme it the way I want it to look (replacing blues with grays). I'll post that and the 4.3 version I did for anyone that wants it (that one allows color customization directly from the app) later tonight probably

Can the op post up the MMS app you recompiled to work with 4.4?
Sent from my XT1060 using xda app-developers app
Okay, so theming the 4.4 one is a lot more involved than I expected. I did some initial theming with xml values, got all the text the way i wanted it, but there's a lot of images i'd have to edit to get rid of all the blue, and I don't really have time for it right now. I started to, then realized using Paint was a mistake, as all the transparency of the ones I'd edited was gone, which messed up the look. I'm sure I'll get around to it eventually, but for now I'm just going to use the 4.3 Mms I made work with 4.4. Here it is for anyone else that wants it. (Couldn't get attachment to work so here's a zippy share link): http://www58.zippyshare.com/v/36354844/file.html
For some unknown reason, I could not get it to install by cp to /system/app or /system/priv-app and doing chmod, so i made a keystore and signed it and have just been installing it with adb install. You have to uninstall your current stock Mms first though (requires root). I did that by renaming to .bak. I'll see what kind of work might be involved with changing the package name, which would let it be installed alongside the stock app. I tried installing it over the stock with "adb install -r -d Mms.apk", but it complains that it's signed with a different keystore than the currently installed one. If anyone knows how to get the default android keystore I could try signing it with that.
I like this version. I see nothing in the 4.4 Mms app that the 4.3 one does not also have to offer, plus this one has tons of customization, emoji support, etc etc. You can change all the colors of text and background straight from the menu. Until we've got something similar for 4.4 I'll stick to this.
I just noticed a little bug... I installed it on a 4.2.2 device and that device receives messages twice. No issues on 4.4 yet though... I'll look into it.
I got this to install fine, but when i try to send an MMS it FC's on me.

Are you on 4.4? And you set it as your default SMS app? If so, can you grab a logcat output?

Bizarre... I just uninstalled mine, cleared all data from the stock app in case something was getting cached, and went and downloaded from the link and installed and it works fine for me still...
My setup:
Moto X 4.4 OTA with SlapMyMoto root (meaning 4.2.2 bootloader)
Xposed framework with XBlast and GravityBox
I also installed it on a rooted S4 running 4.2.2 and it worked, although it was receiving messages twice (figured out why, but haven't uploaded that update yet) and a "not responding" message when receiving MMS (though you could then go back into the thread and view it). I've not had any issues on the Moto X though.
I wouldn't imagine that anything in the app would need root, though I'm not gonna unroot to find out. Can you guys post some log cats and i'll look into it?
EDIT:
Just got the mms force close. I'm sure a side effect of blindly find/replacing com.android.mms in the smali. Soon I'll post a version that only has the 4.4 changes for those of you with root, and i'll keep working on the whole package name spoof for those without.

[Q] Is there any man remove ''checking subscription status'' when open mobile hotspot

like my old android 4.1.2 I want to open mobile hotspot without checking subscription status in my new android 4.3 galaxy s3 verizon
where are developers that will modify framework.jar file to enable this again in this new android verizon?
please help
If beans ever gets his 4.3 rom out it will probably be how you want. I know I'm waiting to install safestrap until he releases it. Until then I'm sure you could find a guide on how to do it.

I mean opposite, it probably isn't that hard and you can have it now if you do it yourself. Or ask for clues on how to do it instead of expecting someone else to do it for you.

Friday night I found out how to manually do it but java was being a pain in the butt and I wanted to test it before telling you how also so I could have the file to upload to you. Just so you know the file you needed to edit was the framework-res.apk not the .jar. the xml that needed to be edited was located at framework-res.apk\res\values\arrays.xml
Decompiled it just fine but on the compile after I was done editing java was being stupid and the compile failed. Hope this information can help you in the future.

Or edit the framework-res.apk yourself. I am glad I know how now because I will never need to wait for someone else to do it. well the only reason Iwould is if foxfi breaks in a update.

Where did you learn how to edit the framework-res.apk? I would rather know how to do it myself but my java skills are rudimentary at best (though I am a quick learner!!). What did you use to do the editing?
Thanks!
I downloaded a note 2 recovery zip of the modified apk. I then spent about ten minutes googling where the tether subscription checker was located then compared my apk to the note 2 apk. A lot of trial and error if you would like to see it old and slow has a edited recovery zip for the 4.3 tether (came out a day after I was looking for it so that's why I didn't choose that one). Just decompile both apk and look in framework-res.apk\res\values\arrays.xml. what I did when comparing it to the note 2 was open both of the XML in notepad++ and compare lines. I am confident I can now mod it without examples if it ever happens again. Finding a decompiler is the easy part there are a lot of free ones out there just Google it and as long as you can recognize every character in the XML (no odd symbols) it decompiled correctly. I could not find a guid on how to do this but I probably learned more from my errors than I would have learned from a step by step. Hope that helps and sorry if that made no sense typed it in a rush.

Oh and if you dig around in the apk long enough you might notice how easy (but time consuming) it would be to make your own custom modifications and themes for your own rom. I like doing it this way over xposed because no matter what I do xposed is super buggy for me.

[Fix] NA1/NA5_Work around to enable installation of non-market apps and disable googl

Hello Users/Readers:
I'm just your average Falsh-o-holic, who combs through all of the S4 threads to find what's been accomplished/useful information. I have not come across this work around, so I decided to post this info users of the NA1/NA5 Roms who cannot access the Security, settings option.
Disclaimer:
Use this info at your own risk. I am not responsible if this breaks your device.
I am posting this info using my XDA app. I also did this without the need of a PC. Please do not ask for links. Everything I used can be found on this web site, play store or google, except for the kernel. I'll try to be specific. Feel free to add links if you want to help other Users.
My Phone/ROM info:
Confimed working on an US AT&T SGH-I337 S4. I believe this will work on all S4 models. I currently am running Echo Rom v14 (NA5), with old bootloader and wifi working kernel (had to flash the loki doki.zip as well, which can be found all over the AT&T S4 thread).
Links of this kernel have sadly been removed.
I also use the AT&T MK2 modem - I intitially got 4G speed/icon.
I had to preform a few adjustments to the build prop and created a new PTA apn to achieve a stronger LTE connection.
I flahed the Att CSC fix zip (Can be found on the Virgin Rom thread in the OP.) as well.
Tools needed for this permission edit:
SQLite Editor or similar app.
I used SQLite Editor v2.0.1
Solution:
1) Using SQLite editor (in the apps menu) I scrolled down to the Settings Storage app and selected it/pressed it.
2) On the next screen I selected/pressed on the settings.db option.
3) Find the line that reads - install_non_market apps (line 19 for me) and press on it/select it. Then select the edit option (pencil icon top of the screen).
4) Change the value from 0 to 1 and save.
5) In the same menu, navigate to the line that reads - package_verifier_enable (line 86 for me) and change the value from 1 to 0 and save.
Last - Reboot your device and enjoy installing apks from your external/internal storage cards, xposed app, etc., without access to the Security settings option.
Please do not make any other changes because you can possibly harm your device.
These 2 simple edits will stop the current FC's we experience when trying to install and app without using the play store and disable the annoying pop-up thak asks if you want google to check for harmful blah, blah, blah. Will work even if you've pressed OK already, which I did my mistake.
Again feel free to post links to assist other Users. I Hope this helps everyone with old (4.3) bootloaders who cannot access these setting.

Please do not make any other changes because you can possibly harm your device.
These 2 simple edits will stop the current FC's we experience when trying to install and app without using the play store and disable the annoying pop-up thak asks if you want google to check for harmful blah, blah, blah. Will work even if you've pressed OK already, which I did my mistake.
Again feel free to post links to assist other Users. I Hope this helps everyone with old (4.3) bootloaders who cannot access these setting.

Great find. I had already changed build prop to att and did a dirty flash to get most of my app installed but this will allow those that didn't to work. It makes the Echoe a truly workable Rom for ATT users and a DD candidate. I agree with Friedrich420 this is what the forums are about,
Edit: Tried this and still have a problem with downloading some apps. Get a pop up "can't store internal storage or sd card"
Hmm. Just tried "sqlite editor pro free" and when I got to settings.db to open it, it gives me "an error occurred while opening the database". Rebooted to make sure everything was settled, but still no luck. Went to buy the $2.99 version of sqlite editor, but it couldn't install onto either my sd card or internal memory. Might be the rom, but this leads to the whole point of needing the work around. Maybe a lost cause.

I had fc too. But that's because it needs root access the request didn't appear straight away. After restarted su request finally popped up then it worked.

In build.pro change false for true in the line: "ro.securestorage.support=false" and in the platform.xml in system/etc/permisions look for:
<permission name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" >
<group gid="sdcard_r" />
<group gid="sdcard_rw" />
and add:
<group gid="media_rw" />

Great work! Eagerly awaiting a zip to flash that will allow Echoe to work flawlessly on I337. GE works great but currently has no real competition and for some reason the Galaxy Gear weather will not work with it so looking to get Echoe working.

Just thinking this could be posted in AT&T like GE rom where you have a zip that changes the 4g icon, build prop and security setting in 1 zip to make it AT&T. What WIFI issues? do they exist on MLD bb?

Extra love for the EXTREME SYNDICATE ROM

So, the EXTREME SYNDICATE ROM by elliwigy is extremely slimmed down, fast, and just all around awesome. With that comes the challenge of what to include and what to exclude in the ROM. In an effort to help support the folks who have asked for extra items that they want to add/add back to the this ROM, elliwigy and I created this thread as a central location for the requested APKs and ZIPs etc. Whenever someone makes a request of this sort, and we can accommodate, we will post the answer/file here instead of the main ROM thread.
Here is where the files will be located.

Is the link in post 2 a working torch zip? Or just the how to?
And, the stock messaging .apk would be good to have here.

This is just a link with some APKs in it. Since I want it also, I will work on putting together a fully functional APK to add to the ROM.
We had posted a link to the Stock SMS in the original thread. Since I do not have enough posts yet (working on it), I am unable to relocate all the links to this thread but I know elliwigy will be doing that once he is home from work.

Just to let you know that mod dose not work with the NE9 firmware. It was working on NCG but NE9 broke it. I think it's the flashlight smali file but I don't know enough to fix it.

I'm on your latest ROM right now and it works. It also worked on Rick's ROM V8, not sure about current.

OK sorry hours of this and I am tired but this is what I got so far and I think I am close...Maybe elliwigy can do it real quick since he is all setup.
I got the SystemUI.apk and SecSettings.apk from ExtremeDebloatDeOdex_v1_5 which I remember had the Flashlight already. I loaded them up and although not dark themed etc. the Flashlight showed up and worked on NE9 of course. Since Misterxtc thinks it may be the smali, I grabbed that from the SystemUI.apk and have it on the side. Tomorrow I am going to try to decomile the current ROM SystemUI and SecSettings APKs and do the same process that elliwigy had pointed me to but this time use the FlashlightQuickSettingButton.smali file from ExtremeDebloatDeOdex_v1_5 and see if that works.
Now, elliwigy, do you still have the decompiled apks that maybe you can do the above quicker than I can? I only ask because first I have never done this before and not sure I am doing it all correctly and second, had some real challenges to get to decompile/recompile these APKs. At one point I had it showing but would not turn on the light. I know you worked hard on this and if you do not feel like messing with it again then I would be glad to keep beating on it.

i can look into it when i have time.. i have to work today n tom n its end of month so today i need to most likely put in some ot so i can leave early tom. i do have sun n mon off so i think i will need to make a v2 and i will include flashlight toggle and put the mtp fix back into rom n see what else i can do.. i also need to replace the adaway apk with working one and might try to theme 8sms since i dont care much for chomp but want it to match the theme.. might also add a dif keyboard since lg g3 keyboard is not lightweight at all.. im going to try n reduce the size a bit more

Maybe I should have replied in the other thread, sorry about that. Please let me know how I can help. I like the idea of v2, a lot.
