Hmm, you had to go to Crackberry to find that. You could have found that in the first post of this thread.

After you've upgraded to OS 4.3 or higher, simply backup the device using Desktop Manager, close Desktop Manager, then run JL_Cmder and execute the "resettofactory" command. The device will do a security wipe of the device; (meaning wipe your data but leave the OS, DO NOT use the "Wipe" command in JL_Cmder) then reboot leaving the OS, 3rd party apps but no data AND, best of all, NO IT policy whatsoever. When you're done, simply restore your backup and you're good to go with no policy or locked firewall. You can downgrade back to the old OS if you desire, too.

I guess I should've been more clear: it would've been nice to know that jl_cmder isn't required to remove an IT policy. That all one needs to do is use the DOS prompt to navigate to:

c:/program files/common files/research in motion/apploader

and then run: loader.exe/resettofactory

A lot less hassle than Jl_cmder.

will it take away that feature of having to enter password and it locking up. and you have to enter password to unlock it. I had a 8310 and switched to 8800. I don't like having to enter a password everytime to use my phone. Like the way my 8310 worked. I gave it away. Will be able to ungrade soon. Till then I want to get rid of this feature.

Yes, if your 8800 has an IT policy, once you remove it, that feature will be disabled.

First off, you shouldn't be using the policy.bin on an 8100. Remove the policy.bin from your computer by reversing the steps used to install it. Then upgrade the OS on the 8100 to 4.5 and use "Method 1" above.

Second, I have no idea what your talking about "custom service book in GPRS." Do you have a BB data plan?

Hi John, I had tried both the methods.
In the wipe method, as soon as i restore my backup, the IT policy comes back again. Any suggestions pls?
I am running stable os version 4.5.

custom service books using GPRS means i dont have data plan for blackberry, but i use the generic data plan from provider to access internet from my handheld.

That's likely because you have the policy.bin on your computer. As I stated above, remove the policy.bin you installed using Method 2 from the computer by deleting it from the folder where its stored. If the policy.bin is left in place then ANY BB connected will get that policy applied.

Hey John, thanku so much! it worked like a charm.. i guess i should not have mixed the two methods.. the bin method is mentioned at net at many places without the fact that it does not work with bb 8100.

thanks again

I have another type of issue with my blackberry 8900 and I need help. I had a 8310 curve that I bought off ebay and had to install the blank IT policy on. I just bought a new 8900 from T-Mobile; unistalled my desktop manager, policy.bin file, and all backup and restore files from my computer. I reinstalled the blackberry desktop manager using the disk that came with the new 8900, went to sync my contacts with MS Outlook and noticed, an IT policy was placed on my new device.

I searched my entire C:/ drive for anything resembling an IT policy and I can't find anything. I wiped the device again (device showed no sign of IT policy), unistalled DM then reinstalled and the same thing happen. What am I missing??? Please help

Delete the policy.bin file from your PC.

Backup your data.

Then I would download and install JL_Cmder and run the RestoreToFactory options. Once you've done that restore your data.

I'm not sure why you used the policy.bin on an 8310....that being said do the reverse of the steps in method 2. Make sure you remove the registry entry.

Thought that was it but when i went into regedit i saw that I had already deleted the folder created for the blank policy and emptied my recycle bin.

The 8310 I had was from ebay, it had an IT policy on it and the seller didn't know how to get it off. I couldn't wipe it so installed the blank. Now the blank is hiding somewhere on my pc and it's driving me nuts

This worked so perfectly. Blackberry 8320 OS 4.5.0.81


Thank you all!
