iPod touch Can't reuse passcode after 2.1 update?

[PaperQueen]

I'm stumped. Since installing the iTunes / iPod Touch upgrade (2.1), I'm no longer asked to enter my passcode when firing up the iPod. No big woop...just go to Settings and re-set it, right?

Wrong. The thing won't let me reuse my original 4 digit passcode. True, this isn't the end of the world, but if I have remember one more code in my life, well...odds of me actually recalling it are slim to none.

Anyone else run into this? Is there a workaround? I really want my original passcode to function (no clue why the update turned that feature off...odd.....).

Thanks in advance, oh wise ones. 😀

Just reverse the pass code number sequence or make it one number higher than the previous one and you will remember it.
