I just got my 9900 about 2 days ago. I accidently signed up with someone elses email. I can't make a new bbID coz it asks me to verify everytime and I can't because email is wrong. I'm on 8/10 attempts, is wipe the only way to go?

Sorry, but your problem is not that clear for me ...
Are you talking about BBID or PIN number ?
Anyway, the simplest solution is probably not to do this with your phone settings but instead have a look at this : BlackBerry - BlackBerry ID
There, you should be able to modify your BBID, including your email address (I guess).
Hope it helps
I'm talking about BBID. I used some one elses email by accident and I can't do anything because they changed the password, what happens after 10 attempts of BBID
Just follow the link provided above to change your BBID settings.
The X10 thing is about PIN (when unlocking the device) fail attempts that will swipe the device, don't know if anything will append with BBID.
Also, you shouldn't spoof around all the forums ...
are you listening to me or not? I CANT LOG IN TO IT!
I ACCIDENTLY signed up with some one elses email.
That 'someone else' has changed my password
and now i cant do anything.
should i security wipe?
No need to wipe. Create a new BBID with your address, then go to 9900 Options/Teminal/BB ID account and change it accurately.
:mad:Stop yelling at helping people.
sorry, but i have to yell. you are just NOT helping me.
there is no such thing as terminal.
i go to Options > Device > BlackBerry ID
but it still asks me for the password, now there is 9/10 attempts.
Im gunna security wipe. sorry but your really not helping me.
how do i back up texts, apps and stuff without bb protect, because you need an ID for that.
did a security wipe, hoping it will be more HELPFUL than you. :)
you're welcome, thanks for your time
Yes! Did the security wipe..
weird, phone is running faster... and BBID WORKS! :D
thanks for trying, sorry if i shouted :P
I also had a problem before with wifi, signal is much improved.
I recommend security wipe to all of you with problems :D
Glad you get now a better experience, enjoy your new phone.
Also this wasn't the place to ask for help, the 9900's section would be more appropriate. Oh well, what's done is done.
....I'm still confused about how he "accidently" signed up with someone elses email address. Then this person changed their password? seems a bit fishy to me.....Oh wait! sorry, I forgot, we like to yell in this thread. SEEMS A BIT FISHY TO ME!!!
This was my zen practice of the day :)
Went pretty well lol
