Default [REQ] Disable Lock Screen ('Exchange Policy Patch')

I would love an app that gives me the ability to disable the Lock screen.
For Windows Mobile 6.x I used this app, and works fine:

Our Exchange policy locks my screen every 5 minutes. Besides the short period, I hate having to enter an unlock code everytime I want to use my phone.

Hope we can get a similar app for WP7.

Microsoft doesn't currently allow 3rd party developers to do this on WP7. Enterprise support wasn't a goal for Microsoft at launch and will come later.

Hi,

Are you sure MS doesn't allow this? I can understand they don't like it, but then again, it's just a 'tweak'. Tweaks/tools are allowed I think on Marketplace? If so, then why wouldn't this 1 be allowed?

Regards,

There is no access to the registry or api to interact with the lock screen so it's impossible without some type of jailbreak. 3rd party apps are really limited right now with what they have access to.

Ok, thank you. Guess I will have to contact our IT department and try to convincen them that 5 minutes is insane, and change it to 15 or 30m

Wondering if this is possible now with the unlocker which allows sideloading?
Perhaps even some sort of 'quick 'n dirty' remote-registry possibility?
