I synchronised my XDA last night and it was fine. However, I need to re-synchronise it again today. It is password protected. I have switched on my XDA but am unable to use the screen at all. Each time I tap the screen to enter my password, nothing happens and I am unable to get into my XDA. Please can someone help. I have already done three soft resets with no luck.
Thank you.
If it was recently backed up do a hard reset and they just resynchronise your data

Forgot my Security Password Help Please ??
Hi I have forgotten my XDA 11s security password do you know of anyway I can get into my phone without resetting or loosing all the data ? Your help will be greatly appreciated. Cheers Tony
@ Tony - If a password was easy to break, there would not be much point to it. Do you not have a recent backup through activesync? or have you got active sync set to rember your password? (if so, copy the data you need off then do a hard reset)
XDA ii s Password
I have forgotten my XDA 11s security password (not the sim password) do you know of anyway I can get into my phone without resetting or loosing all the data ?
if I went through all the numbers to find the right combination for my password would my XDA eventually freeze or block my XDA permanently just like the banks (or the SIM) do with bank cards when you get your combination wrong 3 times??
Well, for a start, read my earlier post - it is ot worth having a pword if it is easy to break.
As for the lock after x attempts, it is likely to have this, but probably be 5, and MAY lock for 15 mins and then give you another attempt, then lock for even longer.
IF you want to do this and spend from now to infinity trying all of the possible 10,000 combinations, then go ahead.
Hello .. I have my HTC hero back on sprint. but no EVDO or DATA connectiuon at all.. I went to the corporate store and of course the MSL code did not work.. so i told the guy well use 000000 and the guy said .. so u messed with the phone...and i had to say yes...therefore they are not messing with it at all...even when i putted the right MSL.. L*( so. what can I do to get my EVDO DATA back?
I can make calls etc...
my other question is...
if you flash your phone..with STOCK(RADIO,STOCK APPS) and you changed the MSL before...will the STOCK flash do all that it suppose to do?
I had the same sort of thing happen to me when I was trying to pass a rooted Pre to a friend. Using the RUU might sort it out, if it doesn't call customer care and ask them to send out the hands-free provisioning signal again. That will put the right info on your phone. Most of all, don't panic All will be well once again.
That's a problem..the hands free activation starts working when you turn oin the phone but it does not complete it gives an error 1012

that's probably due to the MSL not matching the one on file. have you tried rewriting the correct MSL code to the phone? the handsfree activation and profile update should work after that.
Yes I did that...They gave me the MSL...and It does matches the one on file...I am going to try using the RUU again ..
fix
Take the phone back to the store all they have to do is reprovision the phone. If the won't work on the.phone factory reset the phone. I work for Sprint and either will work.
But I am thinking that Update Profile...and Hands Free activation need a EV or 3g whatever connection...right? I don't have it there is no ICON
Just to make sure.. I am running the RUU properly...I have to go to the bootloader( 3 android skaters) and select Fastboot right?
3 things I can think of that worked for me the other day, you will need your MSL and do a ##RTN# (##786#) hit menu then reset. It will ask for MSL but it will also delete everything. should work as long as you have 1.5 based off the 1.29 or 1.56.. Or you can try ##DATA# (##3282#) and reset the data profile. If that does not work call sprint or go into your local store and have them reset your Vision username. 1 of those 3 things should get you where you need to be. If they do not work it is more than likely hardware related.
Just wanted to note as I am still an active employee for sprint as well, a data provision will not work, they will only be able to go these routes in this case, so def. back up any information you may want to keep if you have not already.
ok thanks for all the replies...I just came from a Sprint store, and they guy said that my DATA was not provision properly and I have to wait 1 hour take out the battery ... and turn the phone on again..that should do it...if it does not I ll call Sprint and have them reset my Vision Password ... Thankss!
Ok I think I know what's the problem...First I don't have a recovery thing....HOME+POWER ON brings me to a Exclamation ICON I guess there is where my info should be ... and because the phone was rooted before that image is gone...so the ##3282# USERNAME menu is empty...where can I get that info? that suppose to be there? IP, etc
Your data information will populate automatically once provisioning completes, Id try calling tech support having them reset your vision user name not password then preforming a RTN or doing the RUU prior which should reset everything to what it needs to be prior to root.

FIX
It is not the username and password. It is the fact that the phone is not recognizing there is a network available i have seen this issue a bunch of times. you are going to have to do a hard reset (not a ##786#)or you can take it back to the store and have them provision the phone through icss.
I have done Hard Resets more than 5 times. now ... So i am getting a new phone, and that's it .. I'm tired of goind around with my phone..having i consirderation that my phone was in Metropcs and then to Sprint , maybe that screwed something, ahd the guys over in the corporate store don't want to work on it.
if you were in my area i would help!!

Hard resets will do nothing... Run the RUU... Your MSL has no ties to your provisioning.. So I don't know why that keeps coming up.. I'm not sure how Metro does things, but to take that ESN to another carrier usually needs a radio flash and if they had done that, you will not be able to use it unless you reflash the sprint RUU...
You cannot exchange a phone that you have maliciously changed... It has nothing to do with the phone, its the user....

I have run the RUU several times aswell, and I have insurance on the phone, so I hope I can get one tomorrow.

Hey, he bought the phone. There is nothing 'malicious' about him modifying or customizing 'his' phone. The only thing malicious here is your attitude. Well, that and the phone company Nazis warping the brilliant idea that Google had when the Android was first conceived. It wasn't supposed to be about control, or about 'nickle and dime-ing' their customers to death reselling features that are already built into the OS.
Grow a soul, or at least a pair.
Hello, recently I bought a Google g1 phone (used)... It was working perfectly until i tried to access wifi, it began to tell me wifi is unable to enable. So I began to read some threads online and one thread said that the wifi may begin to start working if you are to restart the phone from its factory defaults... SO I did and it was probably the most idiotic decision in my life because now it is asking me to enter in my account info for my Google account, oh and I forgot to mention... I am NOT in the United States, meaning I dont have any form of a data plan and am using a prepaid sim card, so I can't bypass this dreadful login screen . I am been looking through these forums and have found a link leading to a thread where it explains how you can bypass the registration page BUT there is one problem, my phone is not an RC29 model nor a modded RC30 but a LEGIT RC30! I've tried using the <enter>reboot<enter> command and it is not rebooting . So i am thinking I am going to have to find some way of flashing back to an RC29 but I have no clue as where to begin :'(... I really want to get this issue resolved, it is driving me crazy and i've only had this phone for 1 day! Any help would be GREATLY appreciated, please just tell me how to flash this phone back to RC29 and that would be amazing!
what about rooting your G1 and porting super d rom. it will help bypass the sign in problem

ok well see the problem is I have no idea of how to do any of that... I have even tried connecting the phone to my pc and nothing is coming up on the screen about mounting the phone to my computer! Is this normal? Anyways, so what do you mean by rooting my g1; if i cant access the g1 through my computer can i get into the micro simcard directly (as in use a microsd adapter and connect it via usb) and install the terminal or what ever is used to flash the g1 back to RC29... If so that method would work wonders! Please reply with an answer... and again THANK YOU SO MUCH for your time!
You can customize the APN settings before logging in to Google. Just hit the menu key on the screen where you login (I think, it's been a while). You will need your APN info for your prepaid carrier though.
Hi, a family member passed away a few months ago and I was given her phone by her sister to use if I wanted. She had the phone and charger, and thats it. I stay in the UK and the phone I use is on O2. The phone she had was the Experian L but she had her phone through a contract with virgin media.
When I initally put my sim card in and turned the phone on it said 'virgin media, this phone has been reported lost/stolen'. In order to unclock it from this security lock I needed her insurance company(through virgin) to provide me with a 4 digit pin to unlock the phone. This was very hard to get as the insurance people are different from virgin media, but after a while they agreed to give me the code if I sent a copy of her death certificate in. I did this and got the code thankfully. I was told that I wouldnt be able to use my o2 simc ard in the phone because the handset was locked on Virgin. I was told if I paid £15 I would receive the unlocking code through the post in a week or so.
I did this and got a letter through the door with the instruction on for to unlock the handset. Basically its a 16digit number that I enter and the phone become unlocked. However, after all this Ive just realised I think there is a phone lock on the phone i.e. a pin she must have set herself? I think this because when I power the phone up without a sim, all I can see is the date/time, with her name underneath, and also underneath that is a keypad. When you press any button on the keypad and hit enter it says wrong pin? That happens without a sim card so I presume it is a phone pin lock she had on her phone is that correct? If so, is there any way around this? Ideally I would like to keep whatever pictures etc are on the phone however I realise that might not be possible. Ive tried to download the sony suite however it wont allow me to use the suite because it tells me on the computer I must enter the pin on the phone to continue! bit of a nightmare to be honest.
Any help/suggestions with what I can do? Many thanks
I cant unlock through Pc Companion because Pc Companion needs the screen to be unlocked before it connects the device, and I cant do that.
factory reset
Hello, do a factory reset to the Phone, but you will loose all the information on it
My friend's son died in a car crash, so I would like to get the sentimental data off of the device. Here are my ideas:
Idea 1: In recovery mode, the device is found, but the computer is not authorized. Unfortunately, no access to the son's PC. An exploit to find the correct key would work.
Idea 2: Brute force 4 digit pin. I could do it, but the lockscreen wait time is currently 30 minutes. It will probably go up to 1 hour. Brute forcing would take a year. Also no guarantee his pin was only 4 digits.
The solution is probably brute force + network spoof. The date and time are synced with the cell network. If you could feed incorrect date and time info to the phone, you wouldn't have to wait in between guesses. I would do this, but I am not sure how.
Idea 3: Sideload fake OTA update that removes password lock . This would work if you had the official key. Maybe I could send the phone to Samsung and have them do it?
I'm open to any ideas.
Hello , I am giving the data recovery service from locked mobile phone. If you need feel free to contact me on xxxxxx
