Default Device Lock still grayed out after following other procedures

Hi!

As I were trying to link up my X1 to my works exchange-server, I was forced to check the "Prompt if device is unused" checkbox. As I was growing more and more irritaded over having to enter the code every time I use the phone, I wanted to get rid of it.

As I was finding posts telling me that this was becaus of the exchange server forcing this checkbox, I deleted the connection to exchange.

But the checkbox is still grayed out. Is there any way without having to hard reset the phone I could fix this?

There is a way to "circumvent" the Exchange policy - albeit temporarily

Similar questions have been asked before, so I managed to locate this solution - in theory, if you're no longer talking to the Exchange server, the undoing of the policy settings should stick (and you'll get your checkbox back)

OK, read THIS post and may all your troubles be little ones....

Hope that helps,

Mark.

There is another one, very similar program which resets the registry key once in a while, so it doesnt bug you anymore.
Stay Unlock 2

If your device doesnt have an english OS, then the prog wont run out of the box, you have to tweak it (the path \Program Files is hardcoded unfortunately). Instructions:
  1. Create the folder "\Program Files"
  2. Go to the program folder on your device (\Programme, \Programmes, \Programmi, ...) and make a copy of the "Zenyee" folder in your newly created "\Program Files" folder
  3. Now go and run the config utility, it will work

What it should look like:
Code:
\
  \Application Data
  \Documents and Settings
  \My Documents
  \Programme
     \Zenyee (<- original folder)
  \Program Files
     \Zenyee (<- copied folder, duplicate)
  \Windows
etc etc
Current:
Sony XPERIA Z (C6603) locked, rooted stock 4.1 | Samsung Galaxy S3 rooted stock 4.1
Asus Transformer Pad (TF300T) locked, stock 4.1 | Asus Transformer Pad (TF300TG) locked, rooted stock 4.0


In Repairs: Sony XPERIA T
Deprecated: Samsung Galaxy Note, HTC DesireZ, HTC 7, Nokia N900, HTC Magic, HTC Touch Pro, SonyEricsson XPERIA X1, HTC Touch Cruise, HTC Canary (Orange SPV) et al.
