IPhone :: Lock Access To Settings?
Jun 16, 2012
My mother (age 68), keeps changing her password and forgets it. She also turns on sim lock without remembering the password. Can't explain why she does it. This has been a weekly event since getting the phone. She did the same to new hp pc. After 6 hours with tech support they deemed it owner damage. After sending it back and $400 it's fixed. We set it up with an account for her and a locked admin account. This won't happen again to the pc.
I've looked through all the docs and can't find any way to lock the settings. There must be. What if your kid watching a video or playing a game- goes in and starts pushing buttons in settings?
Info:iPhone 4S

More and more our phones are becoming communal devices, we lend them to friends, family, co-workers to make calls, play games, share information and numerous other activities. He works in an business area where information security is at a premium. As such he doesn't store any secure information on his phone. Â
I totally understand and respect his decision, however there's an Achilles heel to his methodology. Like most business oriented people the main flow of company information comes in the form of email. Not getting that instant access on your phone can be a detriment. Currently when he has down time he'll open up a browser on his phone and log into his webmail. It works, but it's just not as effective as having the email on the iPhone and having the alerts. My question being, is there a way he can lock down his mail? Is there an app that would require an additional password to open Mail? Or is there an option so that the Mail can only be opened with a fingerprint?

I'm trying to setup a new exchange email account on an iPhone 4. This is normally pretty straight forward, however, on this particular phone I can't get into the Mail, Contacts, Calendars settings. When I go into Settings and click on it, the screen flicks up into the settings for a second and then boots me out of settings and back to the main display
I have tried restarting the phone to no avail and checked to make sure it has the latest software update. Is there anything else I can try before I resort to resetting back to default settings?
Info:iPhone 4, iOS 5.1, Business environment

We are introducing iPhone into the business but have a question regarding security. We need to restrict user access to the settings on the iphone probably via a passcode. We also need the user to have access to their emails (which when using exchange enforces a passcode). Is this the same passcode that is used for both by default? Because if it is then by allowing the user access to their emails they would by default have access to the code that allows them to change the settings of the iphone? How I can achieve something similar.

iPhone 4s, ios 5.1, Verizon customer. I have never had an issue until this phone. Why I can see the "delete from server" option, but I can't check it? It's really annoying to delete emails from my phone and then have to go back and delete from my computer.

tell me the steps to locating the APN Settings that I was told should be in the Advanced Options menu- but isn't there? I've got a BB Curve 8530 and need to make sure the TCIP selection is correct.

Using Google Sky Map on my LG G3, and there is a search function in there, which on other phones with a physical menu key (like samsung phones), is accessible via that...
As there is no physical key on the LG G3, how I can access this menu. It also contains the apps settings as well....

I recently upgraded to a Blackberry Curve 8520 from T-Mobile. I am at my wits end. I have a $9.99 unlimited internet plan with T-Mobile. I have gone through several websites trying to find the APN settings to use with the Blackberry Curve. I have found several of them, but none of them seem to be working.
Can anyone out there tell how can I go about this? Honestly, I do not want to pay T-Mobile the $30.00 a month they are asking for access.

When i'm using the browser the Blackberry Logo Button doesn't seem to work. If I hold it I can switch programs but it wont open the menu where the options are. The button works fine with other applications! I tried wiping the blackberry but it's just not making any difference! I'm so frustrated, I only got the phone the other day!

Under the Security settings on my LG G4, there is a section called App Usage Access. What is this? There are 6 apps listed there. 5 of which are "on".

I have recently bought a 1520 (a HK variant with GBIE firmware) and on inserting a giffgaff sim I can only access 3g/4g (there is no 4g in my area so it shifts to 2g then back to 3g, 3g signal isn't great).
Any way to enable access to 2g in the settings, if this is going to be changed in denim or if it is best to change the firmware version?
Currently set to
RM-937_eu_euro1_231
OS 8.10.14192.280

Today I plugged my headphones in and waited for smart connect to disable clear audio plus since it hurts my ears with headphones... It didn't do that, I tried disabling it manually but I couldn't access audio settings in music app... It just wouldn't do anything when I clicked on it, then it said this: [URL] .... and when I did go to settings, sound, audio settings it again said the same thing... I've restarted my phone like 5 times to no avail... And I've checked running apps and there's nothing that could do this.

Somehow i'm not able to access my settings anymore. It gives the following error code (translated from dutch) 'The application 'Settings' (proces com.android.settings) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again'.I haven't downloaded any new apps recently, no new SIM or SD. I've already tried removing battery, SIM card etc. and putting them back in.

This is my first thread and im writing to know if i am the only person who is facing the problem of no being able to access that part of battery setting wherein you get to see the abnormal usage by any app and there a button "Details". Problem that i face is that button 'details' is not click able any more. And since the day it went inactive my battery is draining like crazy. I'll attach pics of same window as well as the processes that's currently running.

We've discussed before that Keep Awake and Location are the primary permissions to block with Access Lock. There are quite a few apps that have those permissions active that simply do not need them. Why does ES File Explorer need to know my Location for what it does?As a group we've worked through a lot of the whittling down for battery saving and smooth use of the G4 over the past few months. I'm now circling back to some things to see if I can't tighten things up even more.
So, what are some of the other permsissions we should perhaps disable by default (unless they are very obviously needed)? What does the WiFi Change (or Bluetooth Change) permission do? Or, more to the point, what potentially happens if I disable that permission?I figure there aren't a lot of things beyond Keep Awake and Location that are big battery eaters, but what say ye?
