Re: I locked my phone

Do you know if she's entered the password in activesync? Sometimes it might let you unlock if you connect it your computer. If all else fails, and she doesn't have any information that she'd mind losing on it, you could always just set the phone to the rom default settings, but doing this you'd lose all of your info on it though. but it should unlock

Re: I locked my phone

Hold power+volume down+Center"ok", then use your stylus to soft reset....

Wait till the screen pops up and then you can let go of the buttons

Re: I locked my phone

Take the battery out & put it back in, while the device is still off, hold the power button, volume down button & enter (circle) button all at once until a grey screen pops up. Follow the directions and u should be good to go
