Hi -
Android Device info:
Android 4.0.4
Samsung Galaxy tab 2 10.1
I am trying to image and deploy 500+ Samsung Galaxy tab 2 10.1 devices. The requirement is, that the 500+ tablets configured and provisioned with the relevant applications for the end-users before delivery...December 31st 2012 - :crying:
I have been manually creating gmail accounts for each device via WiFi since I am not sure of a better way. Now I am starting to notice that some tablets have an error message "Your account has been disabled." Would Google disable these new gmail accounts because they are coming from the same IP address? I am so worried because I can not afford to lose any of the gmail accounts since they are specific to each end user.
P.S.
I am installing a mdm - SOTI
I found a thread discussing Android mass deployment using an "update.zip" if anyone could help me do this I would be willing to pay. I don't see anyway I am going to make this deadline doing each one manually. I was just laid off from this company, but brought back on as a contractor to assist with this last minute project. I would hate to lose this opportunity since its the only one I have.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions
Should I provide additional info?

Hi, there
New to this forum group, having just taken delivery of SGS2, with three.co.uk.
Prior to this I had an HTC HD2 with O2 UK, and made much use of the HD2 forum groups in modding that phone.
This forum group has been so active, I see a steep learning curve ahead. This is all to the good - it means folks are enthusiastic about this phone.
A major reason for me choosing the SGS2 was that Samsung Exchange client supports SMS sync with Exchange 2010 accounts.
This is vital for work, as I can send up to 1000 sms a month to clients and staff.
With SMS sync, I can keep a message history for past and current issues and projects.
My question is: should I stick to the standard Samsung ROM (it isn't "3" branded, as I got it through a reseller, and came unlocked) to keep SMS sync?
Or, can I give in to my inner geek and get modding?
There seem to be 2 main branches for mods - Samsung ROM based and "other" ROM based.
If I were to install a modded ROM would I preserve the functionality?
Or, could I reinstall the Samsung Exchange client if it wasn't present in a modded ROM?
Please excuse me if the answer is out there. I have done extensive reading and searching, but haven't found an answer yet.
If the answer to my question is "search some more, son, this has been answered already", please let me know politely.
I would suggest learning first which things do you need to be able to run SMS sync. If the only thing you need its Samsung Exchange Client, you can use any ROM you like and you can install Samsung Exchange Client app in there so you would be able to run SMS sync without problems.
If SMS sync requires certain kernel or more deeper system stuff, it would be harder to move to another ROM.
Hi, AzureusPT, and thanks for replying
I suspect it is just the Samsung Exchange client I need - it is the only one, other than WM6.1/6.5 that has the SMS sync feature enabled. Standard Android and other variants (HTC, etc.), Apple and Windows Phone 7/7.5 don't enable the necessary features.
I've tried Nitrodesk Touchdown (on a HTC Wildfire I set up for my Mom as a second phone) and it's implementation is spotty.
I guess you're right - I will have to bite the bullet and try out various options. It will be the only way to know for sure what is necessary. From your comment, I take it the Samsung email (Exchange) client is available as a separate download?
Also, I see you are using HyperDroid-Androidmeda - I was thinking of giving that a go as my first ROM rooting adventure. Is it a variant of the Samsung ROM?
I'd also be very interested about this.

Hello
I have Galaxy S2 and synch with Exchange 2010. But i was checking on the device and under Location and security - Select device administrator, It has " Enable server-specified security Policies.
Which enables to wipe device remotly. Is there a way to stop that but keep synch.
I did a test and he not only wipes the email side but also wipes the entire device back to default.
Is there a way around this or not?
Thank You
Any update please

I believe the only way to change this is via a policy change at the Exchange Server end.
That said, I do remember seeing something on here about a utility that would bypass Exchange's policies.
Is there another client for the outlook so that the Exchange admin cannot wipe my device
Thank you
try using Enhanced Email, that's what i've been using since Exchange 2010 was implemented in my organisation.

This is a feature of Exchange just incase your device is lost the admin or you can remotely wipe all your secure information. Businesses of-course like this because they don't want their trade secrets in the back of some cab somewhere to be sold off to the highest bidder (imagine iPhone 4 but information instead of the physical device).
There are hacks out that removes the checks for security but the Server could then block those devices if they don't reply properly to requests for encryption and such.
There is however no need to try to circumvent this as you'd only ever use it in those cases, it's not like the admin is gonna just wipe your device one day because he is bored at work.

I agree with you there if the device was given from the company but if the device is your personal and you are just synch email than i don't want the exchange admin wiping anything so that is my main reason for looking at another client
I think this is a feature of Exchange 2010
Thank You
I have this tablet, however Iam not able to set up the email client to use my work email. I keep getting a message saying that my server requires settings that are not supported by this Android device.
can anybody tell me what is going on? I even went into the settings and encrypted the tablet because my work email requires to have the device encrypted but it did not work. However I also have the Galaxy phone but that works ok with my email. so my issues is only on the tablets.
Am I m missing something?
What email system does your company use?
Also this may need to move to Gen discussion.
This is not in the right forum.
If your exchange admin has enabled security features that Android does not have then you're out of luck unless you can get them to change them. Otherwise your web based exchange should work ok.

Use your OWA address as the mail server.
Can you get mail on your phone? Then you should be able to get mail on your tab. If not, then your IS folks probably have owa sync disabled. We do for all phones except droid, apple, and bb.
I had the same problem with HC 3.1 and 3.2. You can try one of the ICS preview roms like Mabalitos ICS rom in this forum.
I finaly got it working with that after six months of struggeling.

My corporate exchange servers have some requirements that the stock email application won't support so I ended up using Moxier mail. Suggest checking it out, im not sure if they have a demoversion though. Retail version is pricey but worth it for me, ymmv.

Hi all, very stuck!
I have tried setting up my work exchange email on 7 different android handsets,
(Different models, makes and os versions (non rooted, all standard os))
on non of them does it ask to "update security settings" during setup, and as such the account does add but does not sync.
So your aware I’m actually one of the tech guys for the company and when I set all other staff accounts up (so far) on android it does ask for the update which I accept and it then works fine
i have no other phones attached to my account & only the one email address.
and every aspect of my account as far as I can see matches that of others whom it works fine for
Any advice on this would be great and very much appreciated
thanks in advance
Hi there,
Been a frequent reader of the formus for a long time, though I can usually get the information I need without having to annoy anyone with questions... Guess there's a first time for everything!
I have a question about Device Security Policies. Specifically, Lotus Notes Traveller.
All of our users have the option of having their company email accounts on their mobile devices. All of them use iOS devices, but sadly, we apply the same policy rules and all of the same administrator settings to all operating systems. So here's where I have the problem...
I like the convenience of having the Lotus Notes Traveller suite on my phone. Mainly for To-Do and Calender sync, but occasional email is useful. Our Lotus Notes policy reques a password of a certain strength to be enabled on all devices - it must consist of letters, numbers, lower case, upper case and can contain symbols. My issue is that it is frustratingly slow an inconveninece to enter such a complex password every single time I take my phone out of my pocket(a lot!) but I don't want to disable the android policies since there could be some users switching from iPhones to Galaxy S4/S5s.
What I am wondering is, can I do something on my Android device(Galaxy S4 GT-i9505 LTE) that will fake or spoof the secuirty strength and let Lotus Notes still sync with the server even if I don't have a password on my device?
In summary:
- Lotus notes needs a complex password to operate
- I don't want one
- Can I have a less complex password(PIN) or even no unlock secuirty but fool Notes into thinking my device secuirty meets policy.
Sorry if I haven't explained this clearly enough. If you need any more informaiton, please let me know.
If you feel some additional information on the Lotus Notes side could be useful you can get more information by Google searching "Enabling Android device security via Lotus Notes Traveler" there will be an IBM link with all the info. Sorry I couldn't give you a URL - apparently I need to have 10+ posts to my name before I can use external links! :angel:
For now I have uninstalled the Lotus Notes Traveller suite so I could go back to my handy 4 digit unlock PIN :good:
Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Ace
P.S. I am comfortable with Flashing updates and/or custom ROMs if that's a posible solution. I currently run PAC ROM AIO Black Power-Edition NG 4.4.2.
Maybe something like this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2398934 ?
Another idea: Maybe you could use something like KeePass or LastPass to be able to both have complex passwords and be simple to enter?
