Hello,
My phone has 4 number security code you have to enter when the phone's being unlocked(did in settings, default winmo lock but HTC made an unlocking skin on it).
I've taken out a battery while the phone was on, then turned it back again in 3 hours. I move the unlock image, and as usual dialpad appears asking for security code. I enter as I usually do and it says INVALID CODE. I'm like - WTF? Tried again, nothing. Tried dozens of times, nothing. Reboot doesn't help. Now it even stopped saying INVALID CODE, when you press the unlock button it doesn't do anything.
I had the "lock" feature working fine for weeks.
QUESTION: What to do(without hardreset)? Phone is set to sync when USB connected, Windows Mobile Device Centre says unlock your phone first before sync. I can't do anything, can't make call(i can receive it), can't check messages or anything, i can't unlock it ffs! Help please, any ideas are welcome
you aren't alone,happened to quite a few.
did you recently install swype 3.9?(there are other reasons)
i've not seen anyone get out without hard resetting.
i have miri rom with swype pre installed
maybe there's a way to upload a file to storage card that will change some registry keys? problem will be how to run it

About the only thing I can think of is if you were able to find a way to put something in the \windows\startup folder that fixed it - but like someone here already said - odds are you're going to have to do a hard-reset.

It happened to me awhile back...i tried to find a way but didnt manage to find it, i had to hard reset..

Could someone please help?
I have an XDA Exec (HTC UNIVERSAL) Ive been searching for days to a solution for this without avail and you guys seem to know what your talking about! Im very new to this and need a solution to this error when i try to install some applications and run them:
" X cannot be opened. Either it is not
signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be
found "
Is there any way you can disable this in WM5? my WM5 version is OS 5.1.1700 (Build 14354.0.1.1)
Or is there any way whatsoever you can get around this? please if anyone can help do let me know and post!!
Thankyou !!
Is your phone locked ?
It may be locked or your operator prevent installing all of 3d party applications. In this case reinstalling "clean" WM5 may help (I'm not sure though) - I'm only a newbie in WM5.
Another reason that application you run trying access trusted functions - like allocation of the physical memory. In this case I'm not sure what can be done - reinstallation of WM5 will not help.
Its unlocked! so if i re-install wm5 it wont say this when i install programs? i have tried resetting the phone and installing different roms but nothing works! is there any particular rom i should be looking to install? or anything i can put in the extended rom to install after a hard reset to sort this out? PLZ HELP!
I have had that problem, too and I was going crazy. Then I tried the following tweak but I do not really know why it should work, it just did:
in HKLM\System\ObjectStore is a reg key "RegistryType=1", which means Hive based registry.
When you set it to "RegistryType=0", which means FILE based registry, all changes you do in the registry will stay there also if you reboot with device's reset button...
BUT AFTER YOU CHANGE THIS VALUE, FIRST REBOOT HAS TO BE DONE WITH SOME SOFTWARE, NOT WITH THE RESET BUTTON.
Subsequent reboots can be done with reset button then. :lol:
there is another tweak that gets rid of the warning messages, but I did not use that one
really! which software could i use to reboot the phone??
also is resco registry okay to view and change this? it says registry type 0x0 (1) i have now changed it to 0x0 (0) is this correct? i performed a soft reset but im stil getting the error message! is this because i need to use software to reboot?
yep, the first soft reboot needs to be done with software. After that you can use the usual way again.
After I had done this I removed all "problem apps" and then reinstalled them and it worked.
What software did you use or could i use to reboot my ppc chuckchuck?
Hi guys!
I cannot enter the menu Settings\Connections\USB to PC , it simple do nothing. (i think it stop working after trying a SD to DISKMODE soft)
Can someone tell me what registry keys it use and modify ?
The only way to make it working again is a HARDRESET but i got too much software already instaled and backups carry the error that dont let me enter the menu.

Give the following a try. Dunno if it will be sufficient or working at all. (Make a backup before doing so).
Hope others will also post their findings.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\Active\70]
"Key"="\\Drivers\\USB\\FunctionDrivers\\Serial_Class"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Comm]
"Cnct"="`USB Default"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\USB\FunctionDrivers]
"DefaultClientDriver"="Serial_Class"
remove the space from Serial_Cla ss

Mine stopped opening a couple of days back. I wonder if we both carried out some identical activity that can be pinned down (not the above you suggested - does not apply to me). I had to hard reset 3 days ago and over past two days I've been reinstalling apps along with SKtools new app for me. Also been having problems not experienced before with Active sync wanting to set up new relationship on virtually every connection.
Anyway you try Menneisyys suggestion and I'll await your results. If evrything goes kaput I'll know not to bother.
Mike
GREATTTTTTTTTTT Menneisyys!!!!!!!!!!!!!! thankyou very much!
Changing to this:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Comm]
"Cnct"="`USB Default"
make it work again! It was set to "`USB" only
it stop working again... this time I cannot make it work again and I cant pinpoint where is the trouble.
Hi All,
first of all , hope to put this issue in the correct forum path....
my friend has a problem with the Pro2, as you can see by the attach , concerning the keyboard password lock.
His password doesn't works and also performing all the reset type , after the reboot the mobile starts with the keyboard locked (only emergency number is possible call).
he has reported me that at the first time, the mobile has gave to him an alphanumeric code to try to unlock the code but it doesn't solved the issue.
probably re-installing the software (6.5) the problem is solved but he doesn't want loss the date / appointments due the fact he has a doctor.
please help us.
thanks
Hi again,
it's appreciated also if someone know if there's a way to perform the backup in this condition.
Thanks again

Did he ever use Activesync or Google Sync? If he did, most of his information sould be saved that way. Also, you may want to try doing a hard reset but only after exausting all attempts to back your data up. Send a couple of PM to Senior memebers or Moderators, you might get some help that way!!
Good luck!!
thanks for your post....
principal problem is that is not possible connect the mobile to pc in order to use activesync or other program due the fact the mobile is locked....and not save data has been performed before....
Double chack that his SIM card is in correctly.
Same exact thing happened to me. My phone battery was at about 10% and when I tried the password that I had set... it didn't work. This made me frantic and very ticked off. I had a ROM on my SD card so i just reflashed from there. Since then I always install a different locking app then the stock one. I just can't trust it. So I think youre only option is to hard reset and hopefully your contacts are saved to the SIM so they won't be deleted.
Hello,
I had a problem while i'm trying to unlock screen, the device is not responding, i just can input numbers.. but when i'm trying to press UNLOCK nothing happened.
FULL STORY:
I was changing "Network: Call Forwarding setting" then the phone stop responding, so i removed the battery to switch the device down, then after 1 hour i put the battery back, then I've tried to use my general lock-screen password to unlock device but "Wrong Password" message keep shows!! I've tried many times until the device stop responding, then I tried to leave the device for 24 hour in both ways (with battery & without it) then trying back.. but nothing changes :S
Please help me back i don't have any backup and i need my data inside!!!
my phone Omnia II 8GB, using windows mobile 6.5.3 (it comes as original ROM when i bought it)!
Regards
REM
REMINDER!
Hmmm I'm not a specialist my self but I'll give it a try, are U sure that it's the password to enter the phone (that the device is asking for) and not the PIN code for your SIM card? Sorry but I'm not familiar the GT-i8000 stock loaded with a 6.5.3. ROM. Where is the data stored? When it's on the SD card, you might give it a try to readout the SD card in your PC.
Regards,
Bert
I am on XBmod and Yuki's 7720 mango.
The day before yesterday all my sideloaded xaps would not open and returned the "revoked by microsoft, please uninstall" message.
I read around and it seems that the phone had become locked (possibly interop locked), so yesterday I tried to (b)ackup and send the DEV_UNLOCK.CAB which succeeded to install. However I still got the revoked message.
So I did a 1234 gogogo reset and set up activation etc. Interestingly, this did not affect my extrapartition as I assume a settings/about reset would. Also interestingly, I was able to (r)estore from cab sender, and all my apps reappeared (I did not check if SMS were restored doh!), but the revoked message reappeared too!
So I did another 1234 reset and set up phone and zune, and was able to sideload apps again. After a while of access to these apps, suddenly all of them wont open at all. On touching the app icon, it does a wiggle and thats all, no message.
So I tried to send DEV_UNLOCK.CAB but it didn't work because already unlocked.
Also, I have exceeded my 5 phone zune limit and can't sync apps until 23/10.
I have a feeling that we need to be full-unlocked as in DFT rom,
Also I might try WP7 root tools (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1265321 interesting reading) after another reset.
Does anyone else have this problem with this ROM or any thoughts?
Edit; WP7 root tools unavailable for htc as yet
Edit 2; found to be advanced config tool 1.4/tweaks/prevent re-lock. Do not use this with this ROM it somehow interferes to ruin your xaps
