Dawg is right. Many people have tried to get rid of these settings. Unfortunatly, these policies are put on for a reason and therefore are not easily taken off. The fact is that it's not possible to "remove" the policies. I believe that when the carriers or RIM refurbish they can remove them but not the end users. This thread is the best there is for making used BB's work. While it's good to be on the lookout for other methods we need to just live wth the fact that used BB's have their issues.
