Locking Your Smartphone

Locking your Smartphone prevents access to personal data.

When you enable this feature, your phone will automatically

lock after a specified time of inactivity. A screen will be dis-

played requiring your phone lock password before access

is granted.

You can still receive calls and make emergency

calls, even when the Smartphone is locked.

•

To lock your Smartphone:
1. Press the

Power button and quickly release, to display

the Quick List. Select

Device lock, then press the Left

Softkey (“Select”).

2. In the

Lock phone after field, select the amount of

time you want your Smartphone to be inactive before

it automatically locks.

3. In the

Password field, enter the password you want

to use, to access your phone when it is locked.

4. In the

Confirm password field, enter the password

again, then press the

Done soft key.

•

To unlock your Smartphone: Press the Unlock softkey,

enter your password, and then press the

Unlock softkey

again.

•

To turn off phone lock:

Select

Start > Settings >

Security > Disable Phone Lock, enter your password,

and then press the

Done softkey.

NOTE: If you forget your password, there is a way to regain

access to your Smartphone, but you will lose all programs

you installed. First, turn off your phone. Then press and

hold down the Left Softkey (“Softkey 1”), the Right Softkey

(“Softkey 2”), and the Power button, all at the same time.

Continue to hold them down until a message appears and

asks you if want to clear the memory. If you select

0 to con-

firm, all programs you installed yourself will be lost, but you

will regain control of your Smartphone. (If you had previously

synchronized with a PC, you can then get the lost programs

back easily by synchronizing with it again.)
