View Full Version : Disable enforced security by Exchange server

Hi!
I'm using my Vario II with a hosted exchange server provided by 1und1 and so I'm stuck with the enforced security settings.
Some time ago I read someone managed to disable this but unfortunately I don't find it any more. I tried the search engine but it didn't come up with what I was looking for.
Anybody who can help me?
Thanks!

With the enhanced security, are you not able to get anything working on your PPC? Or do you just not want it there? If it's the latter, I'd really like to know why you wouldn't want security on there.

Hi! Everything works fine. But I use this on a private basis and therefor it is unnecessary for me to use a password. Additionally I use an Anti-Theft-Software which is unlikely to be of any help if the device is password protected.
Apart from that it's just a matter of convenience. I've seen that it's possible and now I would like to try it.

I suppose telling your IT dept that you want to be on the password exception list is out of the question eh?

I'm using a hosted exchange. There is no way of changing the server settings.

Hi! If you just want to turn off the security check when you turn your phone on. You can go to SETTINGS->(the symbol with the key don't know what its called on english rom) and set the time to 24 hours. Now all you have to do is turn your phone on once within 24 hours...and you will never see the security keypad again. I hope that is of any help to you...

Thanks for the tip. It's already set to 24h. The reason I want to disable this is not just me being to lazy to key in the 4 numbers but to allow my anti-theft-software to work properly. But when the SIM is changed a softreset is performed and the Password is required before the thief's SIM can be activated and an alert SMS can be sent.
That's my problem.
