What it does:

  • Fixes the WSOD (White Screen Of Death) associated with the Pin Lock Applet. (Which Samsung's Lock Applet creates)
  • By Changing Samsung's Lock Applet (LAP) to Microsoft's default Applet, that will allow support for businesses/organizations to enforce you to use Pin Lock on your device (over their network via Microsoft Exchange). If  used for the company you work for.
    • There is also a way make this change with out installing the Pin Policy update, via Registry:
      • Navigate to
        HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\Security\LASSD\LAP\lap_pw
        Dll=”lap_wpc.dll
      • Edit the string where its says Dll=”lap_wpc.dll to Dll=”lap_pw.dll”

      Or you can download and import the registry file I have created.

      With that said, you can change this back and vice versa to whatever Lock Applet you choose.

To change PPC (Windows Mobile) Registry values you'll need a registry editor, which can be found here: TascalSoft (TRE) or PHM Regedit or you may use a desktop version, that will allow you to edit your devices' registry from your desktop PC, via Active sync. Found here: CeRegEditor v0.0.3.0 MDSoft  (Highly Recommended).

So overall you do not need to install the Pin Policy update to fix the Pin Lock Applet and or the WSOD.

Samsung's description on what it does (quote):
"What Does the PIN Policy Update Do On My SCH-i730 Handset?
When the patch is applied, it removes support for certain character entries. This helps enhances support and compatibility with Microsoft products with the new applet applied."

Here is the before and after image of the Pin Lock Applet after the Pin Policy update is applied or if the registry setting above is changed:
