I am using Balckberry connect to get my company e-mail and they pushed a policy out to automatically lock my device if unused for 30 minutes. It will not allow me to turn it off in the Blacberry security icon. It is greyed out. Is there a way to disable this lock from happening? Thanks! you guys rock!
Wondering the same thing....
I want to use the WM6 lock instead.
Corporate lock
I handle email for a fortune 100 company. I do blackberry and WM. There is no way to disable this once the policy is set. You can wipe the device which will of course remove the policy but you have no email. This is true in both cases. Only your blackberry or WM admin "could" disable the policy for you as a person.
Thru another post I have discovered that you can override the "lock" by stopping the "BlackBerrySecurity" services. However if you disable the service BB Connect will not startup. So you are forced to let it load after a soft-reset and then stop service and you will need to repeat this after each soft-reset.
Can someone post how to actually stop the BlackberrySecurity service?
Thanks!

It CAN be done.
1. install MemMaid and run it.
2. click on the Icon that looks like on old windows symbol with an arrow in front of it
3. along the top click on the down arrow next to 'Startup items'
4. select 'Startup Services'
5. select BlackBerrySecurity and press the Stop button
6. close MemMaid
7. NEVER tell anyone from your IT dept!
You need to complete this after every soft reset.
OK, Cool. Did that. Now can't seem to get the WM6 lock working. Settings, Personal, Lock is not responsive. My goal was to still be able to lock the device, but have the touch friendly pin entry of WM6 instead of the crappy blackberry version. Is this possible?
Phone dies....
I have been using BlackBerry Connect on my HTC Kaiser for quite a while now. It took a bit of time to get it set up initially and then again when I installed a new ROM and had to reinstall it. Anyway after these initial gremlins it has worked perfectly.
However..... A couple of days ago I switched on my phone (from sleep) and was presented with a screen telling me I must set a password - this was the BlackBerry Security Lock that has somehow been enforced (no idea why this wasn't pushed down previously?). Anyway I set the password as there was no other option (eventually as the password had to be of a certain complexity). This is a big PITA as I use TomTom Navigator and every 60-minutes (maximum delay that can be set) I am presented with this annoying Unlock screen. After a bit of searching I found the 'hack' on here to disable the BlackBerry Secruity Service and initially I thought this solved the issue (or at least bypassed it).
The last 2-days however I have been stuck with a dead phone when it has been 'asleep' in my pocket - the top left LED flashes to indicate the GSM radio is working but I cannot switch the phone on nor does it ring or do anything else when a call is received. If I connect it to my PC Or a charger the GSM LED lights to indicate it is charging but it won't switch on. The only option is to hit the reset button. I can only think the reason for this is the BlackBerry Security Service is stopped and the 60-minutes have elapsed? I am not sure though, but before this policy was enforced I never had this problem.
I am loathed to call the IT dept as they don't officially support BlackBerry Connect (I have a brand new BlackBerry Pearl in a box unopened...). Is there anyway to reset the security policy but leave the BlackBerry Security service running? Or any other way to restore the previous behaviour? Having a phone that doesn't ring sort of defeats the object of the whole thing doesn't it?

I have 10.6.33.600 version of windows live installed (came with TyTN II) but no matter how much I try I cannot log on to messenger or windows live because it says password or user name [email protected] do not match or are incorrect. Even though I have logged on to my hotmail account via my desktop with same password.
Ive logged on to hotmail with the email (its a @hotmail.com) account successfuly and the email and password are fine.
Ive tried to log on via my home internet connection (WiFi) or through HSDPA.
Everything was going smooth with this phone (in terms of transition from a long time Symbian user (P800-P900-M600i) until this log on error. I was able to log on gmail through PIE and by registering it as an email on my phone (send/receive), was able to log on to my wsk or dunno what wpk key secured Belkin N-1 router with ease! Log on to all sorta wifi's at coffee shops, but this windows live log on error just isnt making sense.
I've been using messenger for a long time, but in the las 2-3 days I've got some problems login in muy TyTN II and in my iPhone...
This is a shot in the dark, but is your keyboard mapping correct on your kaisier???
If not maybe you are entering in the wrong password without knowing.
I have been having major issues with WL since upgrading from an 8525 to a Tilt and can not seem to find the source of the problem. It is definitely some kind of connection problem. It seems that WL does not successful initiate a connection on its own.
I am getting ready to return the Tilt and go back to my cooked 8525.

I havent remapped anything, and just to make sure I wasn't clumsily hitting the wrong keys I even used the stylus to carefully type each letter/number in the password.
An annoying feature of the AT&T ROM on the Tilt is that if you have the password feature enabled, the phone will start on the Today screen EVERY time you turn it on, no matter which app you had up when you turned it off. My problem is that my company's Exchange server forces me to use the password feature, so it minimizes all my programs every time I turn it on, which is a major time-waster in terms of getting back to whatever I was doing before I turned it off.
Does anyone know how to disable this "feature" without disabling the password requirement feature? Thanks in advance.

Not sure about the password problem, but this thing puts "tabs" on open programs(like your windows desktop pc).
Theres no performance loss, and getting back to your program is a breeze!
From what I understood, that's a WM6 issue - not a Tilt/Kaiser issue.
And I agree. It's incredibly annoying.
I have that problem too. wth. is there any registry we can change?
It's not just the Tilt, it happens on a stock TyTn II. As already mentioned, it seems to be a WM6 issue.
hi,
i'm desperate (or nearly )
i just need some help with my new HTC TyTN II (it was originally a chinese version from ORANGE,changed into the english one with wondows Mobile 6 Pro), problem as follow :
i can connect to WIFI, i mean once i got the connection, and it show certain network is connected in CONFIGURE WIRELESS NETWORK page (or at least i suppose cos it shows CONNECTED near the network name, plus the 2 arrows on the top of screen stops to move) , but once i try to use EXPLORER or SKYPE (that tilts my device ) it show "The address is not valid. Check the address and try again", and it happens for any kind of website, and i'm connected in the same time with my LAPTOP by using WIFI (using in this moment to write).
Plus....
- do not have MSN (and i need it )
- cannot see on the program menu all the links to OFFICE MOBILE, even though i can open downloaded files cos it exhist in WINDOW folder
- do not see many programs on the main PROGRAMS menu such as , SPRITE BACKUP (ho il disco in cinese, ma ad ogni modo non leggo i caratteri), GPS SOFTWARE (like TOM TOM), WINDOWS LIVE
- canot see on the connections menu, KEYBOARD SLIDING SOUND (but it exist in WINDOW folder)
-in the SYSTEM menu cannot see, KEY LOCK,MICROPHONE AGC,POWER (but all exist in WINDOW folder)
-in CONNECTIONS menu cannot see, GPRS Setting, HDSPA, CONNECTION SETUP,WIRELESS LAN (last one i have in WINDOWS folder)
Another problem is :
i would like to have the main HTC screen for this device, that one showing weather...bla bla bla...
Is it a lot of things ? ...
Do i suck at this things ?
If anybody is so kind to spend some time to give me help i'll be so grateful.
Thanks everybody !!
Hi,
- did you register your device with your wireless router (if MAC filtering is on)
- did you enter the correct authentication code for your method of encryption (wep, wpa, wpa2)
- try to power cycle your wireless router and then power on the Kaiser
- search for the msn cab on this forum, it's there somewhere
Robert
Thanks Roobert,
WIRELESS shows "Connected" and the 2 arrows on top of screen doesn't move anymore (it move opposite direction when looking for conection).
And about the autentication code, i do not use any code on my PC using the same wireless network, and it's connect anyway cos it's a free network.
Thanks a lot for you suggestions but doesn't work.
Any other?
Thanks again
Hi all,
just wondering.... everytime i sync my device to my pc, i always get a message on screen that says please unlock your device, even though it isnt password protected. I figure this is an activesync issue. Ive had a look at the setting options on both the pc and TyTyn II and cant seem to see any option for turning this off.
Ive done a search but cant seem to use the right set of key words...all i get is pages and pages of info on unlocking my phone ...Fustrating.....
Any help?
Thanks
i dont think they mean password lock, they mean a standby lock or maybe even the powerdown button
If you are syncing thru Exchange 2007 there is a activesync policy that regulates that password.
To remove it you will have to change the activesync policy on your exchange 2007 server.
since i setup my exchange sync, i have issues answering the phone.
i do have the S2U and when the pop-up for the caller id comes on, the phone wil not take any input. i deactivated the S2U, but still, i do not get the regular caller id picture. the phone it's just locked...
something is screwed up..
but is there a registry entry that could be modified?!
