Hi, first of all... I'm not sure anyone can actually help me on this one, but all and any input in the matter is desperatly needed...
Problem is this:
I've password protected my Diamond for, well, the reason one password protects stuff... and now it refuses to let me in!
I do know the password I put in! I'm damn sure of it, but it won't recognize it.
Is there any way I can get into the phone without making a hard reset or otherwise just flushing everything?
Stupid question, hung over, frustrated and just annoyed... but in desperate need of help!

Hi, I have a tmobile wing and I set up a security pin code but can't remember it! I keep all my school work on here in word docs, and presentations MY LIFE is in this phone so I can't do a hard reset, its just, out of the question. Anyway I can bypass this code? Via software maybe? I will do anything to make this work!...funny thing is if I go to menu and cancel it actually lets me get a peek at what's behind this enter password screen! Its like throwin it in my face that I can't get past aargghh!! Any help, greatly appreciated.
Have you tried to access it from a PC? If you have connected it before, filled the password and checked to remember it, you could download the files and HR the machine without fear.
Aren't you using a Storage Card? I can't see you having all those school and general files stored on the device itself. If you have them stored on the card, then a hard reset won't effect them in any way.

I'm an idiot yes, I know, I just recently got a 1gb card but just filled it up with music. I'll try what CommZ suggested, thanks for the help.
Damm...didn't work...any other suggestions? How about uploading something to edit the bootloader into an sd card? Is there anything there that may lead to a solution? I mean, if they can unlock the iphone...let's be for real here.

Here's a simple thought, have you tried contacting T-Mobile. Yes i know that virtually they are useless, but if you assert yourself and have a 'Don't-take-no-for-an answer' attitude, you may eventually end up talking to a 'helpful' tech support person, who, if doesn't know the answer - might be able to point you in the right direction?
Just a thought.
i think there's no way to erase that password without erasing all device
maybe injecting some proggy as a nbh file, perhaps, u could reach password
How do you erase the whole device? I have the same problem. Some prick put a password on my phone without me knowing, I guess he thought it would be funny and I can't use it anymore. I dont really have anything valuable on the phone so I dont care about resetting the whole thing. I can't access it from a pc for some reason I get an error message but im sure there's a way to do a hard reset without accessing the phone itself, right?
thanks for any kind of help
I'm hoping somebody here can help, because I'd hate to have to get rid of a device that I really love...
Used Helmi's WM6 (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index...angel_WM6_Home) to upgrade from WM2003SE and everything was working beautifully!
I was absolutely LOVING the new software until my device just stopped accepting the passcode that I had been using for 2 years. What I don't understand is I had to use the passcode a few times after the upgrade and all was fine. What could have happened for it to suddenly change by itself (because I know it wasn't me)?
Someone at the PocketPCAddicts forum suggested that I locate an original factory ROM to wipe out everything on the device and try again from scratch. I've searched the web looking for such a beast and can't find one (since the manufacturer/carrier no longer support it).
Can someone here help?

Just so you know, you are in the wrong thread. There's a whole section for WM6 for Blue Angels...
Anyway, what do you mean a passcode? Passcode for what? Reason i am asking is because I too have a SX66 (have had it for 3 years) and I have never seen it asking for a passcode (and I have flashed the bejesus out of it)
EDIT: the guy from PPCAddicts might be partially right, you may need to reflash your device, but you can do it with WM6. I don't think there is any need for you to go back to 2003
(Sorry about posting here. I thought a BA upgrade thread was the proper place. I apologize.)
It's a passcode that you can set to lock entry to your phone's funtions. Kind of like a parental control feature you would put on your cable box. It's just a simple 4-digit code that I set up when I bought the device and I have never had to change it. I will try to do a master reset again when I get home, since I'm back to using my SX56 for the time being.
Thanks very much for your quick reply. I'm so glad there are forums like this out there.

Hard reset. The idea is that if you bypass the password with a hard reset there will be no info on the phone left to pilfer.
um some of those passwords stay I think.. I don't do the password thing on my phone.
Hard reset does wipe the device password indeed, just with every other info on the phone.

It has worked for other people in the past. I think that there are way too many really stupid people in this world not to make a work around for a passworded phone.
I have always said, unless you are carrying your county's nucclear secrets on your phone or cheating on your wife there is no need to password your phone.
Just bury your porn collection deep in an unnamed folder no one will find. Right Chumley?

The reason she is not able to hard reset is because the company program overrides it since hard reset will take it back to factory defaults, losing all company connections\sync. As for touchFLO issues, try re-installing touchFLO.
OK. So I need a good amount of help. I completed screwed up my phone. I was having issues with my G-mail account so I went to delete it. For some reason I was unable to. Told me I had to go into settings and reset the phone to default settings. I connected it to my computer and download a new Rom. I get a pop up on my screen and it asks me to if I want to format. I figured I don't need anything so why know. I had the 8GB SD Card and a different piece of storage for the important stuff.
Oh man. Apparently EVERYTHING is stored on the 8GB. Or there isn't separate storage. What ever it is I really really screwed the pooch here.
So I am assuming I have to install the firmware first. But that part I don't know how to do. I was able to install different ROM's without any problem. And format like a champ.
Can anyone please help me after you all get over the face / palm feeling. Thank you so much.
This can be deleted. I have fixed this phone.
