I just got a used blackberry to replace my last one. I cant use the slacker app because of the firewall issue. On my last one i could just enable and disable it, but on this one i dont have that option. Theres a little red lock next to it. What can i do to disable the firewall so I can jam to some music. Thanks.
Sounds like an IT security policy from a BES server.
How would I go about fixing this?
If you are not on a BES go to Options -> Security Options -> Firewall, disable it.
If you are on a BES it is being forced down by an IT Policy from the BES Server, nothing you can do but talk to the boss/IT Dept and they probably won't budge.
Here's the definitive fix http://forums.crackberry.com/f2/remo...y-phone-81401/.
I got the same problem. Little red lock next to the firewall option drop down list.
I'm on BIS.
It is a brand new phone bought from my service provider a couple of months ago.
The little red lock appears ONLY at my firewall and no where else. (e.g password etc...)
