This mod should be used along with Xposed ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1574401 ).
This mod will bypass the Email app from becoming device admin for your phone and prevent it from setting up any security restrictions on your device including pin/password/remote wipe, etc. There are a couple of other mods out there none of which work right now (1 doesn't work at all and 1 doesn't work for N4 4.3)
Instructions for users
- Remove your existing email account from phone and reboot
- Install Xposed installer (from link above)
- Install this mod (Download apk from here: https://github.com/shantanugoel/Exc...geBypassForXposed/ExchangeBypassForXposed.apk )
- Enable the mod in xposed (Preferences for other devices/versions coming Soon)
- Reboot
- Add your email account again. This time, it will ask you that the email
might require security restrictions, say yes to it but it will never actually set the restrictions.
- Done.
Instructions for developers
- Read the xda link at the top and go through basics of xposed development
- Install xposed as an android sdk addon on your system
- Clone this git repo
- Import in Android Studio
- Make changes
- Build
