    Solution How to Lock/Unlock with newer 9700 OS (.500+)

    With all of the changes to the Lock / Unlock / Password Lock / Standby functions, here's an explanation of what's up with how to lock your BB now.

    • Top Right Button does NOT put BB into Standby
    • Top Right Button is now only Mute for Phone and media players
    • Pressing * + SEND no longer does anything

    WITHOUT a Password set, Lock your BB by:
    • Holding down A from Home screen
    • Clicking Top Left Button from any screen
    • Placing BB in stock holster with magnet
    WITHOUT a Password set, Unlock your BB by:
    • Clicking Top Left Button
    • Removing from stock holster

    WITH a Password Set, initiate Password Lock by:
    • Clicking Password Lock icon (icon is only visible if Password Enabled in Options app)
    • If Homescreen Dialing is off, clicking K from Homescreen
    • Pressing ALT + ENTER from Homescreen
    • Letting your Backlight Timeout and dim to black
    • If you have set Lock Handheld Upon Holstering to Yes, placing into stock holster
    WITH a Password Set, Unlock your BB by:
    • Entering your password!

    WITH a Password Set, initiate a NON-Password Lock by:
    • Clicking Top Left Button from any screen
    • Holding down A from Homescreen
    • If you have set Lock Handheld Upon Holstering to No, placing into stock holster
    WITH a Password set, Unlock your BB from NON-Password Lock by:
    • Clicking Top Left Button
    • Removing from stock holster, if you have set Lock Handheld Upon Holstering to No

    If I've made an error or omitted anything, I'll edit this post. So let me know!
    There may also be some minor exceptions/variations between some of the newer builds, so let me know and I can get more specific.
