Locking your phone and data
Your Treo includes several features that help you protect your phone
from inadvertent use and keep your data private. The built-in security
software enables you to use your Treo for emergency calls even if the
handset is locked.
• Keyguard: Manually disables all buttons and the touchscreen to prevent
accidental presses in your briefcase or pocket.
• Auto-Keyguard and touchscreen lockout: Automatically enables
Keyguard after a period of inactivity, and lets you disable the touchscreen
during an active call or call alert.
• Phone Lock: Requires a password to make and receive calls with your
SIM card.
• System password lock: Requires a password to see any data on your Treo.
• Private records: Masks or hides items marked as private, and requires a
password to view them.
Keyguard
Your Treo includes a feature that locks the keyboard, so that you don’t
accidentally press buttons or activate screen items while the phone is in a
pocket or bag.
1. With the Treo screen on, press Option
and the Screen button to
enable Keyguard.
2. To disable Keyguard, press and hold Center.
When you receive or make
a call, the touchscreen on
the Active call screen may
be automatically disabled to
prevent accidental
termination of a call. You
must use the 5-way
navigation control to access
the buttons on the Active
call screen. Check the
Keyguard Preferences
settings.
