I hit the lock device button by mistake. Of course, I can't remember the code, don't remember ever actually setting it and have tried all the default ones I read about here.
In searching here I find contradictory reports about if a re-flash gets around the problem. Some people say you still need the code, others say the code is still there but the function is turned off and they have a successful re-flash.
I would not mind re-flashing. Everything is stored or backed up elsewhere. But I don't want to end up even worse off if I am to be asked for the code when I try to re-flash.
I have an n800 which has the latest OS and updates up to last week. Something has to be changed with the way the device lock works. It's too easy to get into trouble if you have fat fingers, a fat head, or both.
Thanks, I hope.
