Hi. I got a samsung wave s8530 from ebay and it wont let me master reset without previous owners pin code. It is running Bada 1.2 and I tried a few tricks like volume button holding with home button etc to get to a menu screen but no luck, think some techniques work just for androind OS ?
Can anyone help??? Thanks
Is this a good question?

If you can't get an answer from the previous owner, file a complaint with eBay and send it back and leave negative feedback for this seller.

justin, try this. Remove your SIM and Memory Card, then dial *2767*3855# (here are two other codes that you can try if the first one does not work *7465625*638*00000000*00000000# and #7465625*638*00000000#) and wait till the phone reboots. If that does not work, you most likely will have to flash your firmware. For that, check on here. Hope this helps, good luck.

I have similar problem with my s8500. Everythink was exellent. But why to not set up password...? I did it. Whats happen next? I forgot it. Phone was wait for new battery and I forgot password.
After restart, phone asking me for password. Its 8 digits max. No accept #. That your suggestion is wrong. Its not full keyboard accesible. Only 8 signs.
Same problem with my Wave 525 S5250
