Hello,
I have a little problem or question.
The surface lock automatically after x time, in the configuration panel you can configure this time (max 15 minutes) but the option of "not lock" is not available and a note apears that say "this option is not available by local policies of the device" (the message is not exact because i´m spanish ;-)

Anyone call tell me what can i do to prevent the lock of the device???

thanks

Are syncing Corporate/Work Email? These policies are enforced through Server Side Exchange Active Sync Policies and the only way to remove them is by removing the accounts and resetting local security policies.
