"Good for Enterprise" maiil app on a rooted Nexus 6 - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello experts,
I wanted to know if anyone is currently using Good Mail app to access work emails on a rooted Nexus 6. I believe the pre-requisites mandated by the s/w is that the phone should 'NOT' be rooted. I also know that there is an xposed module that facilitates using the application on a rooted phone, along with a root cloak method. Before I try and fail and get blocked by my enterprise mail server, I wanted to know if anyone else is currently using a rooted phone to access the Good application? I am on stock rooted with xposed installed. No way I am going back.
Thanks

Nine is my absolute favorite. It's paid (I think like 10 bucks or something when I bought it) but it follows material design guidelines and works seamlessly with exchange accounts. It works fine on my crazy customized N6 (Dirty Unicorns, rooted, v4a, xposed, hellscore kernel, etc...). My favorite features are- application level security if you want meaning if they remote wipe your phone it doesn't actually remote wipe your phone- it just removes your account from the Nine app. You can also revert this back to wiping the entire phone if you would want. Also if your workplace requires an unlock code/pin to be able to set up your email- it can also bypass that if you want to have a regular swipe to unlock.
Mailwise would be an alternative recommendation, I used to use it a while ago and it worked fine on my rooted phone. They have a free version too I believe.

Thanks for the reply but I was seeking help on a slightly different topic. There is a product called Good for Enterprise which is used by corporate companies to provide work mail access on personal phones (as a replacement for Bberries). The thing is that the company mandates the phone to be non rooted for this to work. Now there is an xposed module that blocks the app from checking root status or something of the sorts that makes the Good app believe that the phone is un rooted. Some have success with it, while others have had issues. I wanted to know if there is anyone with Nexus 6 rooted and on Marshmallow that has success with using the Good For Enterprise mail app?

That all really depends on the it department. Take mine for example. It is set to look for root as well as xposed. Both which is not allowed.

[Q] Install carrier exclusive apps

Is there any way to install carrier exclusive apps on non-carrier phones? I'm not talking about OEM exclusive apps, but carrier exclusive ones.
For example I want to install AT&T Locker on my Lumia, but I'm not in the US, let alone on AT&T.
Can this be done?
Yeah, same proxy technique as for OEM apps...
I tried Reker's proxy: 117.135.139.179, and also another one: 103.13.29.118.
I could freely install OEM apps, but not that AT&T Locker one.
What else can I try?
You have to actually create your own proxy rules. It should be pretty obvious what part of the URL specified from your phone is the MO identifier; you just have to change that to another MO. (For example, T-Mobile USA uses "TMO-US" and Rogers Canada uses "ROG-CA"; I think AT&T uses "ATT-US".) Those "public" proxies are only aimed at the OEM apps, since normally the MO apps aren't worth anything to people who don't use that MO.

Thanks a lot. After meddling a bit with Fiddler2, I finally managed to install that AT&T Locker app. It fu**ed up anyway, opened fine but crashed at login. Guess it's not my luck.

Yeah, I can understand that Fiddler isn't the easiest thing to run... Are you using my app to install AT&T Locker or are you using the direct URL? Also after you got it installed, is it requiring an AT&T SIM or something?
Oh, another thought... What device are you using? This app actually has some provxml stuff that gets deployed on Lumia devices.

I have a Lumia (1020). So what I did was using the Auto-responder function to capture the URL then redirect it. I changed product code to a 1020 AT&T (dm=RM-877_nam_att_205), change carrier to AT&T (moId=ATT-US). I accessed it with IE using the direct URL (bookmarked in advance). I think it worked fine, since it did display the install button.
When I opened the app, it displayed a signup/login window. After enter my credentials and hit login, it crashed, and kept crashing when I tried to access back to the app. Had to remove and reinstall. Then I tried to signup for a new account, it still crashed and crashed. From my laptop, I can login fine.
I didn't see anything on the app that said it requires an AT&T sim. But since I'd changed moID to AT&T, it should be tricked into thinking my sim is AT&T isn't it? And I did keep the proxy on all the time. If you can install and run it fine, could you give me some instructions about how you did it? Like what and how parameters should be changed?
I actually have only ran it on my 520, not even on my 928 yet... I just know it needs extra privileges once installed, as it shows up inside the Tier3 list. Check on your phone if its in that list if you can.

I'm a little confused here. It sure requires an OEM level restricted capability, which is ID_CAP_MEDIALIB_PHOTO_FULL, I think, so we cannot sideload it. But since I'm installing it from the store, it should be okay, isn't it? Like we can use proxy method to install Nokia Camera which obviously has this capability.

The app installs from the store, but the provxml that's inside might not be executed. Usually you can launch Tier3 using the dial string to check if it's fully installed. You can find the code in the WP8 Diagnostics thread in my sig.
EDIT: Never mind... I thought this app had one and it doesn't. I'll need to look at the xap to investigate...
Those ATIV S devices are looking to be more and more useful...

[Q] how to remove SMS limit per hour on Lollipop?

Hello,
I send a lot of text messages to nearly 200 contacts on a semi regular basis. I have an excellent app that does it well. The only issue is I constantly get permission messages saying I'm sending too many and if I wanna authorize more, its very annoying and if I don't accept it as soon as it comes up, will usually delay my messages.
So my question is, how do I remove/change that SMS limit on Android 5.0? IRS definitely baked into the OS cause as I said, any SMS app gets the same issue.
All help and thoughts appreciated!
- Master Ramy
PS: I tried a couple SMS limit apps on the Play Store, nothing updated for lollipop yet.
Bump, anyone able to help me? Any devs want to weigh in?

Sure, but I also understand its an adjustment somewhere in a system database file to change the limit, I found instructions for a Galaxy S3 phone, but its not in the same place. I was hoping one of the devs of said Roms could point me to the right file so I can adjust it manually on stock.
Anyone else?

I think this app works : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mittelmanapps.smslimitunlock
Just intalled it and proceded to a full unlock. Requires root.
Device said the operation is a complete success and needed a reboot to apply all modifications which I just did.
If I don't have the limit, I will come back to confirm this app works.
Hope it works !!!

My phone is rooted and I'm on Dirty Unicorns 5.02. I'm not sure what system you're on but I've sent out 150 messages without an issue using Group SMS Pro. It will ask me to Wait or Kill the app while sending bulk sms, but I hit Wait and everything goes through. Also, I don't send much more than 200 messages at a time because even on KitKat that seemed to be an issue.
So? Did it work?

I to would like to figure out how to work around this limit. I am on Benzo rom 5.1 and under settings/security you can select 30, 50, 100 or 200 but it's a dead setting apparently because I can select 50, 100 or 200 and I still have to approve any text over 30. Did you figure out how to fix it? I tried the linked google play apps to get around but no luck so far
Flash a custom rom - like what was posted in post #2.
Other than that, you're probably out of luck, OP. Just do what anyone else here would do if they *just have to have that ability* - flash the rom.
Thanks for the reply but I will NOT flash LS because everytime I have tried it it borks my phone and I've been dumb enough to try it "one more time" too many times and paid the price. I know it's probably something I'm doing and not the roms fault but done with that one..........:cyclops:
I went back and looked at the app posted above called SMS Limit Unlock and played around a bit more. I changed the Restriction cycle time and Restriction message amount settings a few times when I was in there before but never clicked on 'Unlock'. I did that this time and it went thru a progression and then said I needed to reboot for settings to take hold. I sorta forgot that step before thinking the Unlock was to convert to the paid version of the app. I rebooted just in time to give it a try and it worked exactly as it should so I got it to work correctly.
Figured I'd post this in the thread so in case someone else does a google search on SMS limit problems and they get directed to this thread as I did, hopefully this will work for them as well. I am on Benzo 5.1 and it worked...... Yippeeeee

1. Root Phone
2. Download/Install a Different SMS(texting) app from the Google Store
I chose to use the 'Go SMS PRO app
3. Download a Root Uninstaller
I used 'Root Uninstaller Free'
4. Uninstall the stock SMS app, it's called 'Text Messaging' I believe. Can't quite remember
5. Profit!!! Just remember to check the setting in your new SMS app for any limit. In Go SMS PRO you can turn off any limit or have it save upto 100+ texts and then start deleting old ones.
I'm not really sure if uninstalling the stock app can actually cause problems, but a few people told me it Could.
It obviously worked fine on Android 5.0 :laugh:

Yes, SMS Limit Unlock did work. Right above your post I said that I sent out about 200 messages with no issues. Some ROMs like BeanStalk, by the way, have SMS limit settings.

[Q]Tap and Pay

Has anyone successfully got tap to pay working with google wallet? Under the nfc settings page it says that "No payment servcies are currently installed" despite me having the google wallet app both set up and installed on my phone. Thanks in advance!
I would suggest you remove it and set it up again. It does show up under NFC for me and works fine. I didn't have to do anything special.

Well, I figured it out. Turns out google just needs a photo ID from me before it will work.
Just curious... did you set it up before you first rooted? I'm not sure if it matters, but it might be necessary to install wallet before rooting. Could try unrooting and installing it.

Bypass Exchange Security Settings on Note 5?

Hi guys,
I have a Note 3 at the moment and was able to bypass the exchange security settings using a custom ROM.
I'm buying a Note 5 and need to be able to bypass the exchange security settings on it as well. Just wondering how I can do this on the Note 5 with the least amount of stuffing around/customising my phone? I don't need any other fancy features at all - I really only use my phone for calls, messages, emails, Facebook and Snapchat.
Any help would be appreciated
Cheers

There is section called Q&A!
BUMP - just got a new Note 5 (in Australia).
Just wondering what the easiest method is to bypass exchange security? I'd like to keep my phone as stock as possible.
I heard the Nine app can bypass the settings but can't see anything online about this. I can see that it can make the PIN required for the app, rather than to unlock the phone altogether, but I want to get rid of the PIN/password altogether.
I don't mind using the Nine app, or normal Email app, I just want to keep the phone as stock as possible.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
Thanks
Anyone?
In my company you get fired if you get caught circumventing exchange security... True of most companies in my industry.
So can't help you there. Would be a dumb way to get fired.
Just use Nine and put in the pin... It really isn't that big of an inconvenience.

You can use mailwise which has an option to bypass exchange security. Plus it's a decent mail app.

Thanks for this! Works well. I had quit putting exchange on my phone because I hated the security. I resigned to just using chrome and our corporate web email.
I already use a fingerprint security on my phone but Outlook admins disabled the use SmartLock which is an oversight in my opinion. They don't let SmartLock but do allow me to keep my phone unlocked for up to 30 minutes. So bypassing exchange security and using my thumbprint with SmartLock (when connected to my Moto 360) is more secure IMO.
As a side note Wanam Xposed module had exchange bypass though I haven't used it in forever so not sure if it still has it.
Thanks guys, I tried Mailwise and Nine and didn't like them - I want to use the stock app.
Looks like I'll have to root + xposed module. Just wondering if I'll still be able to use Snapchat if I do this?

As long as you login to snapchat before installing xposed then you shouldn't have any problems.
Snapchat won't login if it detects xposed, but does not check for xposed after you've already logged in.

I'm on the latest snapchat with root/xposed and it hasn't asked me to log back in after updates. Though I have had it ask me to login and not work after an update, once. Just not in the past few months..

Only way I'm aware of is uninstalling the xposed module and reinstalling it again. Which is probably even more of a hastle than snapprefs.

It works with call/message continuity for people who have tablets (messages can normally only be forwarded if you use Samsung Messages). Might be some other cool stuff or differences too, but that's what I'm after.

Someone probably will need to repackage and sign it. Usually you can't just install a system app off of another device. I haven't been into Android modding/development for a few years, so hopefully someone can get that done now that we have this APK here.
If someone can get this working ,it would be great. I jumped to U TMO firmware to keep RCS and not lose text and phone on my TabS7+

We honestly might even need their Call & Text on Other Devices apk too. The current one we have tries to kick you off if another SMS app is installed.
I've tried to sign the app but, it still refuses to install. Let me know if any of you have any luck!
I don't have the watch or tablet so I don't need the continuity part. Annoyingly my s21 no longer has encrypted messages.

Is it not linked to the version in the Play Store for updates or beta sign up? Encryption was a beta feature.
It is still linked but whenever it updates it has a slightly different file name and no encryption. But the version number still matches the latest beta version. For now I uninstalled updates, sideloaded the regular version and disabled automatic updates.
Anyone manage to get this working yet?

I'd probably start a separate bounty thread for it. I don't want to make multiple threads on the same topic though myself, so I'll let someone else. It'll likely be a two part job though with both the Google Messages and Call & Text on Other Devices apps needing modifications.

Try using Total Commander app from Google store, I get most of 'other' apps installed with that app. The apk files must go to root Download folder so you can easily find it on Total Commander and install it after you grant permission for it. It works on non-rooted phones as well.

Please select all split APK parts!
Are we missing more apk?
Does anyone have any screenshots of the actual app. Are there any visual differences in the one ui messages version?
Just an FYI for anyone hoping to use RCS on their tablet
I got the beta on my exynos s21u and while it does work with the call & text anywhere feature, it currently only replies as SMS even if the inbound msg is RCS
I'll also contribute some funds to get this working if need be. Sad my S21 snapdragon doesn't come with it already. Samsung really needs to polish their brand and stop making it so diverse between countries.
