Palm TREOPROBLKSPT manual Customizing Your Treo Pro Smartphone by Palm 357

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 Treo Pro smartphone. Performing a hard reset deletes all the entries on your smartphone. However, you can restore all previously synchronized information the next time you sync (see “Connecting to Your Computer” on page 39). In addition, your device might not reestablish a data session after a hard reset. To manually establish a new data session, open the browser to access a Web site.
