BlackBerry Smartphones remove a device password

How can I go about removing a device password?

On your Storm 9550, Options > Security > password and disable it.

You will need to look at the Options > Security > General settings password options.

Whatever it is, disable your password.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones Invalid email and password on blackberry 9790

    I have been using everything ok through POP3 email on my blackberry for the last six months and then all of a sudden yesterday asked me to check the password that I tried to do it but the only message I get, is that my user name or password is invalid.  This is not the case, as I am with the same username and password on outlook and my Ipad and these work perfectly. Can anyone help?

    We had a problem with our email on Wednesday, it is now sorted and the passwords have not been changed.

    I tried the hard reset, tried to set up online service, free books works and still will not accept the good user name and the password.  It's driving me crazy!

    Thank you.

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    With a strong carrier network (for example, not only WiFi), I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2, each should result in a message from your BB... Please wait just before moving on to the next step):

    1) register HRT

    • KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with wireless network
    • Please wait a 'registration' message reach your Messages application

    2) Remove and return Service books

    • KB05000 Remove the maintenance book for the BlackBerry Internet Service email account in the BlackBerry smartphone
    • If you do not have access CMIME, continue deleting
    • KB02830 Send the directories for the BlackBerry Internet Service
    • Please wait "the Activation' Messages, one per already configured e-mail account, arrive in your Messages. If you have not already configured email accounts, please wait 1 hour.

    3) restart

    • With power ON, remove the hood back and remove the battery. Wait a minute, then replace the battery and cover. Power on and wait patiently through the long reboot - about 5 minutes.
    • See if things return to functioning. Like all computing devices, BB suffers from memory leaks and others... with a hard reboot is the best remedy.

    I hope that will move things again for you! If not, then you should try remove and re-add your configurations for the relevant accounts. Otherwise, you should contact your mobile provider for formal support.

    Good luck!

  • BlackBerry Smartphones removed bbm info by accident and can't get it back

    Please help, if anyone has any idea if I can retrieve all of the information that was deleted from my cell phone.  It's my last attempt of my password. and blackberry deleted all my info here... I thought they'll just remove my password. my list of contacts, my SMS and my photos and videos are gone... I need to recover so badly... Please help... .anyone please...

    I am to help you! Why do you ask for help please?

    You have a BlackBerry ID. It is used when you want to download an application on BBWorld. You also need to log into the device then in BBM. There are some things in life that should be remembered. Your device password is one of them. You are suffering and begging me for help because he could not remember your own password. It goes the same for BBID. I don't remember your password or your BBID for you since I've never known them initially.

  • BlackBerry smartphones remove security settings of 8820 without access to PC

    I recently acquired a 8820, but I can't remove the security settings.  I'm currntly do not have access to a PC to connect the device to.  is there a way to delete the settings?  Thank you.

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    Exactly what 'security settings' you are asking about? Only these words, there are a lot of possibilities...

    My guess - if your BB has a policy due to have been associated with a BES environment

    • KB30076 How to check for an it on a BlackBerry smartphone policy

    and if you want that political removed, then see this KB:

    • KB14202 How to remove a policy from IT to a BlackBerry smartphone

    You will notice that methods 1, 2 and 3 require the admin BES to do something... If you are no longer associated with the BES, then these methods do not work, which leaves... method 4 not requiring connection to a PC.

    On the other hand, if I guessed wrong, then please specify exactly what 'Security Settings' you're curious about.

    Thank you and let us know!

  • Frozen BlackBerry Smartphones after typing the password (). Help!

    Any ideas before making a hard reset?

    Last night, my Blackberry is not completely unblock after as I type my password. I type the right password and press ENTER, the password input section darkens (or it will stay on the "Enter Password" screen and seem to freeze). (If I type the wrong password it just invites me again, so I know I type the password). This is according to that multiple battery pulls.

    Sometimes, after you type the password, I can hold the blackberry button and it will bring to the top of the box that allows me to BBM, browser, homescreen, etc and I can "switch" to this program, but there is a sort of shadow frozen area enter the password on the app that never I going to and I can't use the keyboard or the trackball in these applications.

    This "box of jelly ' prevents me from using any application on my BB!

    I CAN receive calls. Barely. I can only make calls if I remove the battery and only unlock the phone and go to the option to purchase the place.

    I upgraded to OS 5 a week ago and until last night, things were fine. I hear my BB when it receives messages (work tones) or txt etc, but cannot read anything due to the lock!

    The only suspect is Google Talk, I have installed two days ago and seemed to be hogging resources and drain the battery, however the phone worked well for about a day with it on. Google Talk is perhaps run at startup and hang up things? I doubt it, but it is full disclosure.

    I also, pulled battery and removed the micro-sd card to see if it had an effect - unfortunately nothing helped.

    An analogy I can think of it is as if Windows Explorer is blocked, but everything else works.

    THOUGHTS?

    Try this:

    (1) make sure that you have Blackberry Desktop Manager installed.
    http://NA.BlackBerry.com/eng/services/desktop/
    (2) on your PC, go to start > run and copy and paste the following line exactly (i.e. with quotation marks):

    'c:\program files\common research in motion\apploader\loader.exe' /nojvm

    (3) the Application Loader Wizard will appear - click on "next".
    (4) in the ' connection: ' drop-down menu, you should see "USB - PIN: UNKNOWN". Click on the button "next".
    (5) you should see a list of applications ready to be installed for your Blackberry. Try UNclicking the Google Talk application and remove the device and we'll see if that is the question.

    NOTE: If you do not display the list of applications mentioned in step 5 and instead to see the message "the Blackberry Desktop Software has no Blackberry Device Software for the device you have connected to the computer. Contact your wireless service provider or system administrator', then you must download the Blackberry operating system for your support and your device.
    http://www.BlackBerryFAQ.com/index.php/BlackBerry_Operating_System_Downloads
    Just select the appropriate type of carrier and network, select your Blackberry model from the list and download the latest version. Install this download and follow the steps above again and you should be on the right track.

  • BlackBerry smartphones can not disable password on my 9320 curve smartphone

    Hello

    To protect my phone against unauthorised access, I activated the password on my 9320 curve, so that it hangs after 5 minutes. It works well so far.

    Today, I tried to sync my data with my PC via the BB desktop software. Now, this desktop application asks for the password, but does not accept the password that I entered into my phone.

    I tried to disable the password protection by clearing the checkbox 'Activate' on the phone, but I can't do that (I can't click the "Enable" box, it remains checked with a lock symbol). I can change the password, but the BB desktop on my pc application does not accept the new password.

    Any idea anyone? Help would be much appreciated!

    Best regards

    Chris

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    I think you have two distinct problems...

    Desktop software rejecting your password entry.

    The password requested by Desktop software and the password you assigned to lock your BB are indeed the same password. But what I suspect is that you have a mix of different characters in your device password and you may not notice how you enter on the keyboard of the BB. For example, if your password

    • AB123

    and if you enter

    • a > b > ALT > 1 > 2 > 3

    the result will be

    • ab1er

    You must enter

    • a > b > ALT > 1 > ALT > 2 > ALT > 3

    in order to close with ab123. Thus, in this example, while on the BB keyboard, you think you type ab123, you actually type ab1er.

    On your BB, when you type your password, you should get a moment where each character is indicated in clear before it turns into a *. Watch carefully next time and you will see a surprising result. It will be the exact characters that you type on the keyboard of your PC, because it is in fact your password.

    Lock symbol on the device password, cannot clearly 'enable' setting.

    There are generally two reasons that the locking device password becomes necessary (this is what means small lock symbol).

    (1) you are part of BES or have IT on board strategy that forces the requirement. Given what you describe on when you created the password, I doubt that this is the case, but... If that were the case, you would never have a choice... the first time you used your device, you would have had to create a device lock password. If, by any chance, you are part of BES, then go see your BES admins regarding if they force this situation.

    (2) you have, after activation of the device lock password, activate encryption or the Protection of the content on your device. Once you activate those, they require the device lock password to operate. For example, you can't delete the device lock password until you have first removed encryption or Protection of the contents of your device.

    Good luck!

  • BlackBerry smartphones address email and password

    My Blackberry Torch was stolen recently.  Now that I got my new camera and everything seemed to work OK.  I received emails addressed to it and who is "pushed".  I tried to download an app and had my Blackberry ID need I entered.  She would not accept my new password - so I asked to reset - but the email they were supposed to be sent to my blackberry address did not!  Does anyone have ideas, what can I do now?

    Oh okay Ouch, the using the blackberry.net email account is not good. These emails cannot be found or read any where, but on the BlackBerry smartphone.

    Personally, I never recommend using blackberry.net for this main reason e-mail accounts.

    My best suggestion is to get a gmail or yahoo account for free and create a whole new BlackberryID.

    Then, call your mobile operator Orange and ask them to bring this problem to RIM level two level tech support and get your old account merged or moved to the new BlackBerryID.

    Yes, it's complicated. But it's the only way I see possible... all this because of the password reset. Yuck, indeed.

    I'm going to synchronize. Get to a point where the connection fails, and he asks my Yahoo password. I enter, but he is not happy. The password is deifintely ok. I tried uninstalling & reinstalling different versions of Desktop Manager, but nothing helps. In the past, I had the problem, but it seemed to solve with uninstalling and reinstalling. However, who now does not work?

    What should do?

    What I have to do a complete uninstall - I see that it mentioned elsewhere?

    This is a very frustrating problem! Drives me crazy and preventing the use of my BB.

    I see also said elsewhere that a single don't use Media Manager - why is - this? Is there a good alternative out there to use for my BB as an MP3 player?

    Hello, recently, I realized that, but it seems that the "name of sender" on my outgoing emails ONLY when envoys from my blackbery is displayed as my e-mail password!
