I'm on iOS 5.0.1 on iPhone 4. In settings>general>passcode lock, Erase data is set on off and yet in the bottom it says "Data protection is enabled". Toggling Erase data is not helping. Isn't it supposed to be off?

Nothing wrong with yopur phone. Your phone supports hardware encryption, and when you enable the passcode lock, you'll see that message "Data protection is enabled". That just verifies you've enabled the passcode lock, has nothing to do with the Erase Data setting.
Could be an enforced policy from an Exchange account you set up for work...
Thanks, wjosten.
You're welcome.
It says, "the article could not be found."

The link works fine for me. Regardless, you have your answer.
'data protection is enabled', even when 'erase date' is disabled?!
