BlackBerry Q10 remove PW required for unlocking phone

Having to continually use a password from time to time to unlock the phone. Want to go back to NO password. How to reset the Q10 for this option?

Now, I can answer my own question. Password requirement was caused by encrypting the data on the phone. Once I unencrypted data, the requirement of password could then be turned off.

  • BlackBerry Q10 HSBC quick balance for Q10?

    Very disappointed with the lack of apps for my new Q10, but particularly quick HSBC Balance. I love the BlackBerry products and Q10 is usually a fantastic device (a few design decisions that didn't really take into account the requirements of the user if you ask me, but no product is perfect!)... but it's so frustrating not having critical applications, I need.

    Any indication when the HSBC app will be released for the Q10?

    Not really, just download an app called Snap and do a search.

  • BlackBerry Q10 new owner on your old phone

    While trying to install ID of my wife on my old phone (with my ID), and after phone reset to factory settings, I'm stuck because of anti-theft protection request original ID I provided, but then I ask myself for e-mail address as username. Can not pass. It probably came before the Forum.

    Thank you. The phone is Q10

    Thank for your help and your solution. The wipe of security suggested worked! Now that the phoneQ10 records finally under BBM ID my wife there is an additional problem. While the data on the card works, I can't transfer data from Blackberry link because it tells me that the restore option won't work because the phone has acquired a new ID. How can I transfer data?

  • BlackBerry Q10 callers can't hear me phone earpiece / normal, just speaker! Help?

    Hello

    I just bought a Q10 and love all that, except for the fact that the appellants can only hear me when I use the speaker. The microphone seems fine, I ran the diagnostics... is therefore not a hardware problem. And he does not pick up my voice when I'm on speaker.

    I tried to jump the battery for 15 minutes and put it back, which did not help. I've also updated the operating system and that made no difference.

    I think that others have the same problem... is there a solution for this? Please help, I need this phone to work.

    Thank you very much!

    S

    'New' is difficult to interpret, because it can mean different things to different methods... but nonetheless...

    The next thing to try is the virtual Expert of BB (I don't know if that's what you mean by your original report "diagnosis"... apologies for the redundancy if yes):

    • Article ID: KB35973 Virtual BlackBerry Expert diagnostics application using

    Failing this, official support of your place of origin of purchase, or another provider of the guarantee (as determined by your original purchase agreement).

    Good luck!

  • BlackBerry Q10 reset to zero when the phone does not

    Hello

    Is there a way you can do a reset phone to factory settings when it used to turn on?

    I had a bb10-0021, 0015 and 0020 error and it won't turn on at all

    Wonderign what I got (if any)

    Not happy that this is happening after the upgrade - I came to the conditition my phone is only good for the Trash now will try anything...

    Thank you

    I suggest you try the method of automatic loader, very clean and very energetic:

    Beware that it is completely destructive... the device will be 'as new'... None given, no apps, no accounts, etc. Remember you first take a full backup, as well as make full manual documentation of applications, accounts, configurations, etc. Sometimes a restore reintroduced corruption even sought to eliminate, and manual reconfiguration is required.

    You can also use it to return to a BONE earlier if you want... you can install any level of the operating system for which you can find an auto-loader. (Hint... search the site of CB!)

    Good luck and let us know!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones remove personal information for recycling

    How can I remove an icon called my email address that looks like an envelope with a small globe in the bottom center?  Or at least change the title of my email address?  Verizon service is no longer of this phone.

    One of the KB has offered a number of options, including using the function of deletion/backup/restore of the Blackberry Desktop software application, that had not occurred to me.  It was not necessary to use these functions, because one of the menu options is to remove all the information.  This seems to have deleted any personal off the unit.  Thanks again.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones removing BES requirements set by the previous owner

    I was recently given a 8830 by a friend whose society got her a curve.  His previous employer used BES and had password enabled in security options, which made sense because it was a mortgage bank.  I don't use BES, and do not need the password function, but it seems that I can't turn it off.

    is there a way to do a hard reset which removes all the restrictions that the previous owner had some?

    Options of-> Security-> General Settings Options-> press the Menu button-> Select wipe handheld

    Who will wipe the device, do not know if this clears the it policy as well.

    If this does not work there is another way...

  • BlackBerry Q10 removal of e-mails

    I just downloaded the new software on my Q10 and now it won't let me delete emails. When I try to do, I get a message asking if I want to cancel the email and check a box if I don't want to review the message. But then I can't push the delete button.

    Also, it changed my keybord. So if I press the Y get a Z and if I press Z I get a Y.

  • BlackBerry Q10 all is currently blocked on my Q10

    I cannot even accept an incoming call. It seems that all functions and keys are blocked. Does anyone have an idea what we were wrong and the way to unlock the device and touchscreen? Thank you. Marcus

    Perform a simple reboot on the BlackBerry this way: with smart BlackBerry poweredphone, remove the battery for a minute and then reinsert the battery to restart. A reboot in this manner is prescribed for most defects and errors of operating system, and you will lose any data on the device doing so.

  • BlackBerry Q10 Q10 cannot turn off after 10.3

    I have improved my Q10 to 10.3, after that that it restarts after several minutes since I turn it off. This means that I can't turn it off and it is still running on automactially. But it can be turned off while charging.
