BB Torch :: Password Works Only For Unlocking Device?
Jul 11, 2011
The password that I use for unlocking the device works, because I just entered it and unlocked the device. However, when I connect it to the computer via a USB cable the same password doesn't work. The password is all letters. I do not remember ever entering a password to synch my device before so I can't remember if that is supposed to be the same password. I did try once with caplocks on just to make sure that the password wasn't all caps, but that did not work either. I'm baffled. If any others have that have had this problem could post what they learned,
My daughter has bought today a new Torch 9810. She has entered a new device password. After a few hours she tried to enter her password, but she forgot her password.
After a read of some internet groups, the solution is simple, just type 10 times your password and the BB will restart. I know that all data will be removed, but that is no issue.
Unfortunately the BB will not restart after I retype for then times the wrong password After the reset it starting with a White screen, with a sort of document icon. Within this document icon, appear a lock and cross sign, beneath this icon there is a counter with is repeatedly showing from 0 till 100% and then start over again.
I've tried to disconnect the battery for at least 1 minute, Put in a different sim card, let it run for almost one hour, but nothing seems to work.
I can't remember my device Password. I am on the 5th attempt and the message is stating that if I try the last attempt and miss it, it will delete all my data on my device.
I can't access my phone because it is rejecting my device password. I am now at the final attempt and am getting the message that any more attempts will cause the info on my device to be wiped clean.I tried recovering and changing the device password through Blackberry Protect with no success.
Since upgrading to BlackBerry Torch device I am unable to configure custom alerts for a specific email address. The device is silent for all email except when email arrives from a specific address (for on-call support purposes) .The alerts are actually working for as long as device is not password locked. As soon as I lock the device, whenever the email arrives it remains silent. If I simply unlock the device the device will respond as expected. The devices uses 6.0 Bundle 2647 (v6.0.0.600, Platform 6.6.0.223) on Bell Carrier network.
just got my 9700 today. With my old 9000 I was able to make a password, lock my phone, and then upon unlocking it it would ask for my password.With my new one I just need to press the unlock button... what's the point of the password then? Can I make it ask for my password when I unlock it?? And how?
Just bought a new I-phone and I'm trying to back up my old phone so I can transfer everything to my new phone. I must have created a password a while ago to unlock the I-phone back up, but now I can't remember it. Is there a way to reset it or obtain the password?
I Forgot my password(security code) of my Nokia N86 which i'd change and when i change my sim card,the handset prompts me to type the security code...
I've tried all my known passwords,but of no use..
I reviewed many websites and found that bb5 models cannot be unlocked and the only solution for that is to get the handset flashed,i just want to know from Nokia Discussion board,is the flashing only solution available? or any other alternative?
I bought a Bold 9700 about a month ago and everything was fine un til I had to call T-Mobile to get an exchange about a week ago. I got my new Blackberry 9700 but the only problem is, when I set my password and enable it, the phone doesn't prompt me to enter the password whenever I unlock the phone. It only asks if I go to settings>password lock or when I reboot the phone. I'm new here, and I apologize if this has been posted before.
I have a Blackberry Bold 9700. It was buyed to Orange Spain. I got it unblocked by a MEP code. It worked with other companies since that day. Later, it got broken and I took the device to the store and it got repared by an official tech of RIM. It now works, but I am unable to unlock it (make it work with ohter telephone companies) with the same code I used previously.
Recently I bought A Samsung SGH A886. And I am currently in Contract with FIDO, knowing that this Phone was a ROGERS Phone. I bought it because a friend of mine told me that it's possible to unlock it. I`ve been trying to look for someone that can unlock it. But I've heard that all you need is a Code to Unlock the Phone permanently.
I just started noticing that when I hit the power button on my N6 and it shuts off I hear a popping sound. I also hear it not when I swipe up and put in the pattern lock I have, but when the phone unlocks after that when the homescreen comes up. Is this Normal? I swear I didn't hear it before.
Has anyone successfully unlocked the Tmobile Samsung Vibrant using a 3rd party unlock code source? I have purchased a code with ebay seller "unlockadic" and unlockallcellular.com. Hopefully one of these sources come through with the code.

There are a number of different docks / lapdocs out there for different Moto phones. which ones will line up with the MicroUSB and MicroHDMI. I have been warned that some are backwards and or upside down.I see sales on Atrix HD docks and Bionic lapdocs will they work ?
I just upgraded to a BlackBerry Curve and was very happy when my Password Keeper just showed up, accepted my old password and had my database. However, the find function no longer works. If I type A, is says no passwords found even though I can see a bunch as soon as I open it. So how does one fix and non-functioning password keeper find function. It is painful trying to get to the ones that start with "Z!"
All of a sudden the phone couldn't automatically log into my yahoo email. I've changed the password and everything. Now I deleted the account from the phone and tried adding it again. It says "authentication failed, verify username and password". I'm 100% certain both are correct.
To improve GPS performance, can the 5800 be paired with a Bluetooth GPS receiver? Does anyone have this working and with which GPS receiver?
GPS problems: 1 - cannot obtain a lock outdoors at all or within a reasonable period using unassisted GPS. 2 - using WiFi assist, gives inaccurate location, off by hundreds of feet to a mile.
The 5800 has the latest firmware, maps software, and maps offered. The GPS receiver would be attached to the car's dashboard.
My device volume buttons (+ - ) doesn´t works. The ringtone it sounds, and the alarm but not whatsapp´s or my music. If I touch the + - buttons, appears the ringtone symbol but not the little white squares. I can´t increase or decrease the volume.

On my sony xperia z3 stamina mode doesn t seem to work.Then i go to apps, find stamina mode app then i clear cache, force stop app and i restart my z3. Than stamina mode works proparly. And the same situation after each recharge.  Before restart
After upgrading to os 7.1.0.163 my password keeper application does not recognize my password. I am on 7 /10 unsuccessful tries before I assume I get eternally locked out and the data lost.
I have an application which works only through WIFI and not through 3G network. Its a security camera app which when I install on it on an iphone it works over 3G no problem but not on the blackberry. Is there something I should be looking at ? Also yes I do have a full data plan with unlimited access.
I downloaded an theme from BB Appworld. Since then almost none of my apps are working. I can't go to options to delete anything nor can I reset my phone. I can't even go back to Appworld to delete anything from there either.
I have a new Torch 9860.When I tried to make a call, there was no ringing tone, so after about 20 seconds I looked at screen and saw it has been connected for 10 seconds, but I couldn't hear the other person. Tried again via speakerphone and with handsfree earphones, and these work. Also tried phoning bb from another phone and I hear it ring, when when I answer "normally" I can't hear caller unless I select speakerphone or plug in the earphones.
recently my screen would take afew tries with the unlock button to actually unlock, now my screen has compeletely turned off, but all my buttons still light up and work, i can touch and use the screen (although not being able to see what i am doing, i have navigated my phone to play music etc from memory) there are no cracks or damage to my screen.
