Hey folks, after I leave my x2 in my pockets and ride a bike or something vigorous n' pull it out I find that it asks me for a password to unlock - yes I do keylock the device before hand...
What's the default password? I tried '1234' and 'admin'... I have SKTools 4.5 installed with the keygen info of Device ID: SyMPDA, so that's the name of my x2 as well...
thanks in advance!
think i read it somewhere to be a1b2c3. maybe try that out?

I've been searching for a way to use "device lock", but nmot take up a whole line on the today screen. eg use it in Pocket Plus. Can anyone tell me how to do that?

Sorry...
I meant I looked on my device, trying to find an executable file for Device Lock. I did'nt occur to me to actually search the forum.
It must be monday...
Trying it now...
Thanks V!
Is it possible to remove the plugin, but have an icon in the system tray which will lock the device when pressed?
Matt's app will do that. Read the thread above.

I just loaded "Microsoft Password for Pocket PC" from
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/wce/downloads/ppctoys.mspx#EVD
onto my T-mobile MDA Vario great I thought more security! :lol:
Laughing
once soft resetting the device I try a nice new password longer than the 4 digit number previously with a few other alphanumerics thrown in.
Now how do I enter longer password strings than 4 charc from the initial entry screen? It only has 0-9 and CLR on it!:x
Mad
I can login using the new password via active sync and have a recent SpbBackup backup, if its any use
Any one out there every been this stupid?
Thanks for help.
:lol:
Can't you use the hardware keyboard??? If not, you can use ActiveSync Remote Display or Pocket Controller.
Thanks lutzs,
mmmm.. the keyboard can be used but the message after the 4th character is entered comes up..
"The password you typed is incorrect. Please retype your password"
so it looks like it is only expecting 4 charcs and no enter/ok key press.
also to get remote display to work I need to lauch the application on the phone.. and no can do
Any other suggestions?
then i think it's not an input problem, forget the other methods. It's a problem of the program. Saved all data? Then make a hard reset :?
BTW: I can choose a simple or a complex pin (with ascii) by default.
ok will do ....one question
How do you do a hard reset on a T-mobile MDA Vario?
(please don't laugh ...I've updated my ROM, other tweaks and soft reset many times)
just don't know how to hard reset a phone without going through the START..SETTINGS...SYSTEM... method.
thanks
It was something with Pwr, camera, comm-manager buttopn and reset, but i don't remember exactly. Search the forum and you will find it.
thanks for your time Lutzs hard reset underway...
see...

"You have to hold down the buttons (comm. manager+voice command
) then insert the stylus... then remove the stylus wile still holding the buttons and wait a second. then let go of the buttons.. it will then ask you to hit send to hard reset."
I should be back up and running in 30 mins or so
cheers, :lol:
hey and don't install this app anymore. :lol:

LAPCancelVerifySequence
LAPDisplayCodeword
LAPDisplayPreWipe
LAPLockoutUser
thanks.

If you implemented a lap plugin, when the device starts, the plugin is loaded by the lass service and the VerifyUser function is called, there you have to launch a dialog box where the user will enter the password, if the password is correct, you should return true and if it is wrong you should return false.
If you answer false, the verifyuser function will be called again.

The LAPLockoutUser() lock out the user.but it take a parameter
cSecondsToLockout
[in] Amount of time, in seconds, to block the user from continuing and when it spend its time it lock out automaticly.

ps.: here is the sample provided in PB 5.0, I've read somewhere that this sample has been adapted for AKU 2.0, but I never had the chance to find it.
hi ,
I have an HTC Touch sync with exchange 2007.
the default settings pop up the password screen each 15 min .
does anybody know any "screenpaper" soft that may change skin this password screen? it's possible with spb shell ,but as I don't like it , it's 11 mb just for a password screen .
Any idea? S2U2 doesn't work , dockware neither
many thanks
good luck getting help. I posted this question a while ago with no answers. the only thing i have found is to totally get rid of it with a reg edit. try searching google for it if your interested. this will get rid of it and if your company doesnt enforce there policys of the password protection it will let you change it. if they do the next day it will reset and you will have to do it again or bribe your IT department to change your security settings. as far as skining it I dont think it is possible or if it is you will probably have to make a program to run over it. hope this helps.
Hello! when i installed swype keyboard on my htc hd2 after restarting when i write my 4 digit code nothing happens. I don't want to lose my contacts and I'm not doing hard reset
Please help me.
sim code or phone lock code???
It is phone lock code
so you do have a big problem now, because you would first have to remove your phone lock before installing swype. swype setup is changing the user information of your device. so you are locked out now.
what to do now without flashing new rom i dont know. maybe someone else can help you with this problem.
but the problem with swype changing the user info is known. so you had to read more carefull.
look @ this thrad: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=681004&highlight=swype
Thank you, but that didn't help me.
Try Try and Try again
Well,
Yiour other possibility is to keep on trying. Your passkey is hashed with user information.
If installation of software changed user information, you will need to try and find a combination resulting in the same hash value(very slim possibility, almost impossible)
Other option: Hard Reset..
I know ths doe not help, but these are the possibilities AFAIK
i've been caught out by this... i didn't read... i THINK also swype has f-ed up my email a/c before now as well... i think you'll have to hard reset...
IMHO swype is best installed almost immediately on a new ROM/reset ROM, before any other installtions, account set up & ESPECIALLY password set up...
yes - i swore a lot too, when this dawned on me..
ALSO - you must disable your phone lock password (not SIM lock) when UNINSTALLING swype as the same thing will happen - this caught me out too!!
HTH?
