X426 unlock problem

I tried the code to unlock a samsung x426, and it works. But i'm always asked to enter the sim lock "00000000" each time a put a sim card, even with the one of the original network locked to.

Why?? can i remove that??

I don't think you can remove that but you can change those numbers. It's a security feature.

Thanks for your reply! i fixed it! i just had to disable the sim lock option in the phone!

Gi,

Can you tell me how you unlocked your X426 step by step. Also was it Firmware version 1.5 or 1.6

Thank you

Harry

start your adventure with *#9998*3323# and any invaliud sim if you are version 1.5 and earlier, then select mallov fail and after reboot *0141# and hit call. It will then ask for your password which must be 00000000 (change it back and try again if you have changed it). If this doesn't work try #0111*password# where I don't know the password value yet as 00000000 tends to be wrong for ver 1.6 and if all else fails Cerebros is available on my site.

Thanks a lot bud. It worked like a charm...the 00000000 one. I am grateful to you and I would try to spread the word around.

WHat is Cerebros ?

Harry

Cerebros is an all in one IMEI-related tool. It can unlock and reset your IMEI and is available on a lot of unlock-related sites.

Thanks again for the prompt info. How can I get it...what is your site address and instructions. And do I need a cable to use this tool and if so, what kind of cable..USB or Serial or another. YOu can also email me at [email protected].

Once again, thank you and you are a great guy (gal)

Regards

Harry

I don't know about great, but the site is http://www.personal.psu.edu/users/s/j/sjs342 and if you want to skip the page info go right to Cellular.htm The program has simple selection menus for phone type, an entry area for IMEI (illegal to edit, know before using) and Unlock. You do need a cable, and I would suggest cable, but usb should work (don't know, never used one)

HEY,
I´VE TRIED ALL THE METHODS ABOVE TO UNLOCK MY SAMSUNG X426 WITH NO SUCCESS. CAN YOU TELL ME HOW TO UNLOCK IT, AND HOW DOES CEREBROS PROGRAM WORK? THANKS
