I NEED SOME SERIOUS Help... Question about Lost Phones and Security Codes
 
Sorry to type in all caps...

I lost my phone on Sunday... I don't know how or wear...
I had one of those rubberized belt clips for my phone, the 2 piece ones with a front and a back.
Sometime between 3:00pm at church, and 5:20pm at home, I lost my phone. Somehow it was either pulled off or I clipped it on something. It would take a lot of force for anything like that to happen, but it did. When I left my house to go back to Church, I looked down at my belt, while I was pulling off in my car, and saw the back half of the case still clipped to my belt, minus the phone.

Blessing for me is that I had the code set on it, so no one can access it after 5 minutes...
And if they mess up the code, 8 times, it will kill the data on the phone.
the question I have, is will it wipe the Secure Digital card too?

I am hoping it does, but does anyone know this for sure?

what password program are you using? and if it is just a program, couldnt they just hard reset it?

If the program you used for security has the option to "kill" the card when it clears the ROM then yes. If they do a hard reset, that would wipe out the internal EEPROM with all of the data, but not the card. So, needless to say, the data on the card is somewhat vulnerable.
