Help blackBerry Smartphones! I'm locked!

A few days ago, I put all my various credit card, Bank, etc., usernames and passwords on the Memo pad.  I created a password, I've never done before.  Later in the day, I tried to use my Tour 9630 and the screen showed a lock, no other icons and requested my password.  I put what I thought I had created.  Did not work.  I have 10 tries before I'm devastated and I'm up to 7.  No. I didn't write it.  I tried another one of my standard personal passwords, then variations.  No luck.

I went to the Verizon store.  They said that they can not help it's problem of BB.  I called BB, they said, call Verizon, it's their problem.  If I try 3 more and not to mark, told me that my phone is wiped away as if I formatted a disk.  No, I don't have a backup on my laptop.  But I'll change that if this ever gets solved.  I may be stupid, but I'm not stupid.

I get incoming calls - otherwise, I can't use my phone.

I can't be the only one * beep * who never forgot a password and has been locked.  There must be a work around for this problem and see the or bypass the password.

Anyone out there - help!  I don't want to have a very expensive paperweight.

Hi and welcome to the Forums!

Unfortunately, it isn't your problem carriers nor RIM. It's yours. One of the main characteristics of BBs is their security. And you have activated one of these distinctive signs. And there is no back door. There is no way to keep it, after that the 10th attempt, wiping her own failed. The only solution is to enter the correct password. Here's what to do. You probably know the right keys, you rely on when you created the password, right? But, do you know what key modifier performed (enabled or disabled, by the way). It is likely that, whatever the configuration control keys was in place when you created the password are not in place now. You must find this good configuration - alt, caps, something. Either on or off. Those who will change the character who sends the same key on your keyboard. You have to find what is right. There's no other way.

Good luck!

    Hello tooblackish

    Welcome to the Forums of the BlackBerry Support

    Sorry for the trouble, but I noticed this same problem with few other users, who could not send pings to any BlackBerry 10 there BlackBerry 7 devices.

    To solve your problem, I suggest to re-install BlackBerry Messenger!  To do this on your homescreen go to Options > device > application > locate and remove BlackBerry Messenger from there. After deleting to do a battery pull reboot as this device powered on remove the battery wait a min. then reinsert back.

    KB10040  : How to display or remove installed application on a blackberry smartphone   

     

    Finally, after the reboot, use your BlackBerry browser and go to www.blackberry.com/bbmdownload and download the latest available for your phone model. If device reboot prompt do then sign in with your ID BlackBerry even.

    Try it and tell us how it goes.

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    If the old BB is really dead, then it is not available as a source for restoring your data to your new device. Instead, you must use another source, one that you created before the old BB died.

    If you made a backup of office, you can use the backup as a restore source file:

    • KB10339 How to use BlackBerry Desktop Software to restore data from a BlackBerry smartphone from a backup file

    If you were synchronizing with a Desktop Organizer (for example, Outlook), then you can use that as source for restore reconfiguring the RIM Desktop software now work with your new BB:

    • KB03315 How set up the synchronisation of data using BlackBerry Desktop Software organizer

    As you use BB Protect, is also an available food source:

    • KB25063 How to use BlackBerry Protect to restore data on a BlackBerry smartphone

    You must be sure to connect to, on the new BB, the same BB ID that you used on the old BB. If you have already created a new ID BB on this new BB, then you go to your old ID BB:

    • KB26694 How to change the BlackBerry ID on a BlackBerry smartphone or BlackBerry PlayBook Tablet

    This will allow even you to migrate other things that were on your old BB - for example, documents of purchase/download AppWorld.

  • Help blackBerry Smartphones, after resetting my phone (due 10 password attempts failed), it will lock in T or stay unlocked to the network all the?

    I forgot my password blackberry and only have one attempt left.  I read somewhere that if you enter the password more than 10 ten times then you can reuse the phone but it erases everything (which is fine by me) howevever my question is this, I unlocked my phone to all networks yesterday, my phone will lock t mobile again once it resets itself or it will remain unlocked to all networks.

    Thanks in advance, im a new user of the blackberry so that you can understand my confusion.

    Hi kashipower

    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums

    When we enter the wrong password longer then 10 (by default) it will wipe this device by removing all the data within the camera, if you previously had your device Unocked then no it won't lock your device to the carrier after a reset.

    He will wipe away just the content within the unit.

    Hello

    Personally, I would get a new phone. While this could be remedied by reloading the operating system, it could also be a sign of a serious defect that may affect your phone permanently. In my opinion, I wouldn't pay for a device that has to be repaired

    or isn't just straight out of the box.

    Hello!

    As a community of volunteers supported users, there is no commitment for when / if any position will respond to the. We try, but we too are human beings human and also have a life to live. In addition, many of us who spend a lot of time here are in the USA... and the last weekend (Thursday, by starting earlier for some) was a period of holidays in the USA, many volunteers making busy with their life and unable to post here. Therefore, the delay in responding to your message is, while not unexpected, that unhappy. Of course, this solution was posted maybe of thousands of times already... some research site should certainly have revealed to you earlier, rather than waiting for a response, perhaps?

    Anyway... regarding your query - at the top of each device forum, there should be some 'sticky' threads dealing with the level of the OS available for many models. If they understand your model, please use those as a reference as you go along. Otherwise, you will have to dig through the download portal official for packages of OS for your model:

    You can ignore the Desktop software for it and from a PC, you can install any compatible OS package (for example, for your BB model exact number) of a BB via this procedure:

    Note Although written to "recharge" and the storm, it can be used to upgrade, downgrade or recharge any BB device model - depends on the operating system package you download and install on your PC. If this OS package comes from one carrier other carrier for which your BB was built, then remove, on your PC, all copies of the SELLER. XML... There will be at least one and maybe 2, and they will be located in the same way or to (it changes based on your version of Windows) these files:

    • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
    • C:\Users\(your Windows username) \AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML

    Don't forget that you remove, since your PC, any other BB OS devices as packages with more than one installed on the PC can cause conflicts with this procedure.

    You can also study the use of BBSAK (bbsak.org) to perform the wipe what he is capable.

    You can also try this procedure might limit the specific causal element:

    1. Load your OS "bare bones"... If everything is optional, do not install it.
    2. If the behavior is immediately, then try another OS with step 1
    3. If the behavior does not immediately, then run for as long as necessary to make you to be sure that the behavior will not occur.
    4. Add one more thing - no matter how tempting, one.
    5. If the behavior does not immediately present, and then runs for long enough to be sure he won't have the same problem
    6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until all things are responsible or the behavior presents

    When the behavior shows up, you know the culprit... the last thing you have loaded.

    If the behavior doesn't re-present, then you know that step 1 or 2 cured it.

    If the behavior has anything, then you have probably a problem of material level for which no amount of OS or software can heal.

    If you are on a MAC, you are limited to only your sanctioned carriers OS packages... but can still use any level they currently have to sanction. See this procedure:

  • BlackBerry smartphones, the phone lock to make a call

    So far, my experience with the Blackberry Storm has wishing me fervently I didn't buy the phone or even looked at it. Why? simple. whenever I'm on a call and and so unhappy as to touch my face out of the phone, TI puuts the pople, I'm on the call to we hold, mutes them cutting me, etc etc etc. Th phone is more this kind of incident to be broken into pieces in a fit of fury rigtheous. Someone must have thought that a screen lock would be an idea of common sense to stop this problem, but I do not see anything telling me how and Blackberry responses! installation was as much a drink of water to chocolate. Someone can please and if there is no existing method to do someone on the EDGE please apply a little common sense and put it in a software update?

    Thanks to all those who ae enough kind of pity and help in advance!

    Are you annoyed by the touchscreen BlackBerry Storm (tm) remains active during a call? Frustrated with accidental screen presses activating programs while you talk?
    CellAvant has the answer... TalkLock. This free utility snaps automatically a few seconds after a call is connected and intercept the actions of touchscreen. This prevents presses to launch programs or functions call screen while you talk.
    When the call ends for any reason, TalkLock releases control of the screen until your next call. You can also disable the lock and back to your normal phone at any time behavior by sliding your finger across the screen from left to right.
    Features include:

    • Runs automatically after installation and each restart
    • Automatically after that phone calls are connected
    • Automatically hides when phone calls are completed
    • Manual unlocking with function "slide to unlock".
    • Menu item to re - engage the lock after unlock
    • Customizable background image (uses /store/home/user/TalkLock-Background.png if it exists)

    I had to post the article for this utility!  Its free, can't beat THAT...

    Visit http://www.cellavant.com/TalkLock/Default.aspx to download...

    Hope this helps you and take a deep breath... RIM will take measures for continuew to improve your user experience!

  • Help blackBerry Smartphones! device password does not.

    I went into options and turned off my device password. Afterword, I turned off my phone, took out the battery and restart the phone. When the phone restarts, he said still device is locked. I select unlock and it says: 'Enter 'blackberry' to continue.' so I type blackberry and it takes me to the next screen, which is the usual password screen. I tried the password that I disabled it and the att password set in place. neither work. I'm on my last attempt or all will be earsed. I have no idea what is the password and I need my files. can someone help me please?

    There is simply nothing that can be done other than for you to enter the password. It would be that YOU assign to lock the device, not an ATT password.

    There's no other choice. Password for BlackBerry security is impenetrable and there is no way around it.

    I hope that you have a recent backup of your device.
