I'm having a problem disabling the preinstalled lock (the one where you type your numeric password on a key pad) & disabling the preinstalled dialer. It's messing up my Slide2unlock & a few other things. I have a reg editor & did try what someone posted but would you mind giving me the step by step instructions for dummies?

I have slide working but it doesn't work right. I think that is because I'm confusing the phone by adding programs but not disabling any of the old or factory preinstalled ones. Sometimes my Slide2unlock pops up when i get a call & the caller id is messed up. I can't see who is calling, the number comes up but with no name (& it's someone I have stored in my contacts) or I can't answer the call no matter what i do. I think it's because I have 2 caller id programs running but i don't know how to shut the one down.

The other thing that may or may not be a problem is the lock on the phone that is a numeric lock. It's factory installed. It still comes up if i dont use the phone for a prolonged period.

PS-Did you ever get that dialer to work?

yea i've been soft resetting, but its annoying, especially when i start losing shyt, like i got a text message from a number i didnt kno, went to read it, and turned off the screen by accident, when i turned it back on it asked for a password. i did the soft reset and when it came back on, it was like i never received the message.

well i believe the stock lock code for most phones is the last 4 of your phone number... XXX-XXX-1234 lock would be 1234 at least

also check settings/personal/lock
