Reset device PIN
If a user forgets the device PIN for a Windows Phone 8.1 managed by MobileIron, or if you locked the device, you can reset the device PIN from the Admin Portal.
To reset the device PIN:
- In the Admin Portal, go to Device & Users > Devices.
- Select the Windows Phone device.
- Click on Actions > Windows Phone Only > Reset PIN.
-
In the Reset PIN pop-up, click Reset PIN.
A new PIN is displayed.
The device user can unlock the device using the new PIN.
Note the following about the Reset action:
- The new PIN is generated by the device and communicated to MobileIron Core.
- Since the new PIN may contain complex characters, we recommend that the user reset the PIN.
