I was trying to set my wifi security on my htc 3d and it went off so when I turns it back on it is showing me a emergency call screen and asking for a password and I have never use a password on this phone before. What must I do now because it is not letting me any more and keep asking for a password which I have never use a password before.

            It lists the Desire HD, but not the Inspire?
            Interesting considering they are like devices.

                    If you are wondering if any of your apps have access to this you can check by going to Settings - Applications - Manage Apps - Downloaded - Permissions (Down the bottom of the page.)

                    Just in case you weren't aware.

                                I don't care about stored passwords for WiFi routers I have accessed and remembered.

                                    Stunned, 03 Feb 2012What exactly does apps having access to all Wi-Fi passwords mean ? email, IMs, social networks... moreJust the password of the wifi connection profile. Not a very big deal. Corporate users should careful but installing random apps will pose other bigger risks anyway...
