I had my phone on the security code so people couldnt screw with my facebook when i leave it alone. Came back to my phone and there was 7/10 attepmts, and now instead of the **** when i type, it says the font or letter. Im on 9/10 and i dont know what the next step is and i dont want to find out.
It goes to letters and numbers after the 5th attempt at entering the wrong password. Your original password should work. It goes to letters to help you remember. If you can't, it will go to out of the box condition. Hopefully you made a backup to restore your data and settings.

Media card will be fine. You could remove it to be safe, but I've never heard of it being affected. You can't remember your password? Try putting it down for a while.

The lesson is to make backups. Every once in a while is better than nothing. One thing that did happen to me once, I tried to enter a wrong password once to wipe a device before I sold it and it wouldn't wipe!? I tried about 15 or 16 times before I gave up and used the wipe function. I wouldn't count on this happening though, .

I must be the king of overkill. I backup before leaving for work and then again
before leaving from work. Two a day, everyday. I have too much crap to lose.
i saw a post on here ( old one i believe ) where you can change it from 10 to whatever number you want but you have to use DM and find that file to change it dig around here incase you cant remember your pass, before doing last attempt worth a shot?
Good stuff!!! Remember to back up on a regular basis as the others said and if it ever happens again you can just restore your data from the back up.

Just curious, does the backup restore themes and apps? I recall reading somewhere on these forums that backing up apps & themes is not the same as backing up your device through the DM. Am I mistaken?
Could you guys help me please.... I never set a password but i have messed with it a few rimes and it say 3/10 or 4 something like that. I want to set a password but when I entered wht I though was the default one.. last 4 dig of my number no good.

To my knowledge there is no "default password" and mine BB's have never had one enabled...

umm if you type the password wrong on attempt 10 it does now wipe your phone. you have to type in BLACKBERRY or somethign like that before it wipes. thats to prevent accidential password attempts from your pocket or something.
