Hey... dunno if this helps, but here's what I do... I wrote up a simple MortScript that does the following (attaching to this post):
Code:
RegWriteDWord("HKLM","Security\Policies\Policies","00001023",1)
After you run that the first time, you can go into Start -> Settings -> Lock and make sure your settings are as follows:
1) "Prompt if unused for" checked
2) set to 24 hours
3) Simple PIN (with my PIN of choice entered)
Then, since the Exchange server policy gets reapplied daily (once a day as far as I can tell), when I see the lock prompt happen the first time (usually late at night or early AM for me), I unlock with my PIN and run the mortscript once manually. This basically resets the policy to prompt me every 24 hours instead of every 5 minutes... which means I never see that PIN prompt for the rest of the day (except on startup).. and for me, unlocking and running the mortscript once a day isn't the end of the world.
I've considered writing the MortScript to monitor for the reg change (say every 5 minutes or something) and auto-apply the fix, but I wasn't sure how that might affect battery life (and my Touch Pro doesn't need any more excuses to have it's battery drained
)...
