Get rid of "safe unlock" after failed exchange account config?

bela42 · 12/07/2011, 10:13 AM

Hi,
I just tried to set up an exchange corporate account on my Pre3 (2.2.0). The server did require a security policy of setting up "safe unlock" either with a password or a PIN. So I just set a password. Then the account setup failed.

Now I'm left stuck with my password lock on the phone, since the screen & locks app does not allow me to remove the lock at all. I can only choose between password and PIN, but no longer set it completely to "off" since the toggle is no longer there...

I also cannot remove the exchange account, which should remove that policy also - because the setup failed ther is no account to remove

Does anybody know how and where I can remove that exchange security policy again without doctoring my phone?

HELP

Nevermind, the problem was 'solved' by a Luna crash/restart this morning (just was using Forums).

The lock went away and the setting was magically reset to 'none'.

Fascinating world of WebOS...
