    So, last night I must have had too much to drink and tried to get into my phone and failed because I just woke up to it with the password typed in wrong 10 times. Anyway I can go about this without having to wipe my entire phone? I already tried going alt+shift+delete, didn't help.

    Nope, sounds like you are pretty stuffed! The only thing I can think of is to try and do a full backup using DTM first, then let it wipe, then used advanced restore to get back just the bits you need.

    Oh man. That sucks. I'd call your provider first and see if they have any suggestions. Good luck.

    It didn't wipe my device, after I typed Blackberry it gave me 4 more tries and now that I've sobered up I got it right. Whoo!

    Yeah I think it asks to type blackberry in after a couple wrong attempts just to make sure the keyboard is working correctly.

    Just so it's not an issue in future take the 2 minutes per week and make a backup on the computer. It is much less of an issue if you have most of your data backed up.
