Hi
I have a Blackberry Pearl 8110 and, as the title explains, my keypad password suddenly doesn't work anymore. I tried to put the password in a few times, sometimes happens you might accidently hit another button and you try again without thinking. I realised it still wasn't working then decided to properly watch what I was putting in. I did that again once or twice and didnt work. I took out the battery and sim for a bit then tried again but no luck. Im on my last attempt now and it says that if I fail to enter the password correctly then all my information will be lost.
The password is my son's first name, and it has been that ever since I got the phone. I used the phone this morning a few times and everything was fine. I went out in the car and later pulled in to make a phonecall and the password wouldn't work, and I couldn't make the call as a result.
Nobody else had the phone at any stage today as I live on my own and went out in the car on my own. So it not like someone could have taken the phone and changed the password on me. I didn't drop the phone or spill anything on it or anything like that. It was in my pocket, then on the passenger seat of the car before it all went wrong.
I cannot afford to lose the information on my phone. I've just started a new business and all my contacts are in it. I've got all my contacts for friends and family, as well as contacts for people that I have no other method of contact for and will not be able to contact them again if I lose their details now.
This is unbelievable.
If not, does anyone know if RIM reset my password or do something for me?
Has this happened to anyone before? Is there any way around this?
I cannot afford to 'try' anything else now, I need a definite solution to get back into my phone, as it's my last attempt at the password, or I'm completely screwed.
Thanks
