Ugh. This is not a fun thing - it happened on my C once...when it was still alive.
Just use the unlock utility, it will do what you need. Hard resetting will not remove the lock..the point of the lock.
It's really a dumb thing, if all your data is gone, why lock the device that way? I am glad that feature is not available on my 720.
yes it is so dumb........ makes no sense!!
or maybe it is to prevent a thief from being able to use the hpc after a hard reset and/or sell it...
how many times did you have to try to unlock it?
anyway i don't use password protection, as it kills instant-on..
