Use p2kman software to delete these locked files with padlock. You will need a usb data cable as well. See the motorola tuturial section for more info.

Read this thread as well.

alternative course:
Any of the MSS versions higher than 3 will allow you to delete factory data as well...thats what I did just beware what you delete so as duceduc said BACKUP!!!!!! to delete factory data just go the the File Browser tab and select what you dont want one by one and delete file. Simple....careful because some files will cause your phone to go mute ....

The right way before deleting lock files, is the set all your ring style to silent. That ways when you delete those files that phone will not see it as delete.


Here is another tip.

Is it possible to copy the locked ringtones from the Motorola V330? Via bluetooth or using mobile Phonetools?
Thanks,
Ben
