Using system password lock

To protect your personal information, you can lock the system so that
you need to enter your password to access any of your information or
use other features of your smartphone.

[ ! ] IMPORTANT

If you lock your system, you must enter the exact

password to unlock it. If you enter an incorrect password, you are given
another chance. Each time an incorrect password is entered, you are
given progressively longer time periods between your chances to enter
the password. If you forget the password, you need to perform a hard
reset to resume using your smartphone. Performing a hard reset
deletes all the entries in your smartphone. However, you can restore all
previously synchronized info the next time you sync (see
“Synchronizing contacts and other info” on page 32).
