Does anybody know the default password for this rom or has anybody encountered the same problem and got away by not erasing everything and installing again.

P.S. - I am a noob...i know.

Have a good day!

That's strange, there's definitely not a default PW on the lockscreen, at some point you or someone would have had to create one somehow, even if it was inadvertently...

Might be able to get away with a factory without doing a complete reflash, all those settings should be in data.

Hello guys and thank you for your posts so quickly.
Yesterday i wiped out the system and did a fresh install since i had no other solution.

Anyway what i described initially is a little bit wrong because what i really did is : settings ---> cyanogenmod settings ----> tablet tweaks ---> and there i unchecked the "disable lockscreen" which is by default checked. I wanted to mention that so it won`t happend to anyone else. And as a security measure, after the fresh install, i went in: settings --->cyanogenmod settings ---> lockscreen ---> unlock options --and ckecked "skip on security" ( which is by default unchecked ) just in case

.

Have a good day all of you and Thank you once more.

You guys on CM7 really should take the leap and at least give Jelly bean a shot. Jelly Bean has some really nice features, and is smooth as butter and just as stable as CM7 is. Check out TWA's builds. They have all the aspects working, and I have not had one forced close or issue on his latest build.
