Hi Guys,
Well i hope this is not a dupe post, however ill give it a shot.
So i have my new Android phone that is setup with Exchange syncing from work. There is a PIN number that is forced onto my phone which is ok, however coming from an iphone they had a really neat feature where i could set the timeout on the PIN to say 15mins, then anytime i used my phone during that time i didn't have to enter in the PIN. This was ok with me. However since moving to Android, it seems that when i set the PIN and the screen lock feature to say 2 mins (so the screen will turn off quickly) when i wake it up the phone asks me for a PIN. It is starting to get quite annoying.
Now before you all jump on the security bandwagon, i want to first say i am happy with having to enter the PIN, however i was wondering if there is an app or solution out there that could make it similar to the way the iphone handles the PIN timeout.
I am using a carrier supplied phone, so no rooting or hacks have been done to the phone yet.
Does anyone currently know if there is any way to add in the PIN timeout feature (or whatever it may be called) so that when i wake my phone from sleep within a certain time, the PIN will not be asked until that timer has been met?
The apps i have seen do NOT work when exchange sync is enabled.
Any help would be really appreciated.
cheers
Hi guys,
Just wondering if anyone has any suggestions on my question?
Thanks.
There's a version of email with the security requirement disabled. This would allow you to set your own password requirements and screen time out.
Where could I find this replacement email app?
Ok so I have a Galaxy 10.1 wifi tablet. I have it rooted with the AOKP ICS release, and my tab is encrypted. What happened is my little brother was messing around with my tablet and it has a PIN code lock screen, he botched the code too many times and now my tablet is trying to do a data wipe. Is there any kind of work around I can do to keep that from happening?
Some more detail, I tried the lock screen bypass app and it didn't work
Really ?!
I used to know that if u typed in the code wrong several times it locks the screen for 30 seconds than 5 minutes 30 minutes and so on
Can you make a photo of the screen to show me exactlsy what it states
I kinda feel that this isn't completely relevant but I'm kind off not doing so good. The other night I changed my phone lock from pattern to pin code (done on the verge of sleeping) and I forgot my pin code. Is there anyway to reset my galaxy player without by passing the lock or something. Its not yet rooted and its a galaxy player 5.0. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
if u mess up on pin more than 5 times, there should be a forgot your password option on the bottom
Did you have android debugging checked in settings? If you did, you can use adb to bypass the lock
I accidentally my Galaxy Player
My brother set up a lock screen pin on his Xperia Go and now cannot access his phone. He was messing around with the phone and ended up setting a pin which he does not remember. He's tried various combinations and nothing has worked.
A factory reset wouldn't be an issue but there are photos which he wants to recover.
The WiFi is connected and his Google account is in tact. He remembers the password to that but the device does not offer any option to reset the pin. I tried installing a free and paid screen lock bypass app but none of them worked, I was going to try installing Screen Lock Bypass Pro through the web market but it says the device is incompatible with it.
The phone is stock, it has not been rooted or modified in any way.
Can anyone please help recover the photos?

Bump! Has anyone got any suggestions?
Hi, I have a problem, this morning trying to unlock the phone (HTC desire 820) I received information that the pattern was incorrect. The formula is 100% correct. Finally, after a few phobe resets, the pattern came in and I have access to the phone, but now to turn this pattern off I have to provide it again in Security options, but it does not work again. What to do to get rid of this pattern? I have access to the phone and have to wake up every 15th time so that the pattern lock does not turn on again. I do not have ROOT. Please help
