So i use an exchange 2003 server for all my email, contacts, and calendar but after flashing some of the new roms it seems my previous methods for disabling the lock no longer work.

I've tried lock picker, and even the instructions from keyguard controller on how to patch the Mail.apk but i still get the lock screen.


Does anybody know how to completely remove the lock screen? This is driving me nuts and i do not have access to the exchange 2003 server to change any settings.

Thanks for any help guys!

Ive had this problem and was driving me nuts. Today wanted buttons to be replaced, but they replaced the whole damn phone. Long story short after rooting.
I surpassed the exchange policy by this apk.

I did this.
adb push Mail.apk /system/app

Reboot...

Once done, i added exchange account, went through the whole setup.

After that i went back into the settings, security, device administrator- removed that, and went yes on all the warnings of it deleting. Then still on security screen, i turned off the screen lock/setup the pattern lock.

Hopefully this helps you out.

Oh and this was all thanks to this thread here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10266578&postcount=307

but since your using an evo, and this Mail.apk works for me, id figure it work for you. :)

What about "no lock" by BoD ? I include it in my ROM and haven't had a case were it didn't work. Although I don't know what ROM you are using.
