Dear J Sanders,

Its all there but you know most of the times the Blackberry Protect returns unknown response or many a times no response at all. I have tried this myself.

Yes, if the battery is removed, or if the SIM card has been removed and replaced with another, your Protect will not locate or backup or wipe the device. All that is explained in the link I provided.

When they block the PIN, that device will be disabled and unusable.
