- Hurrayyyyyyy......... It is successfully unlocked. Now you can use it for any Network

ReplyDeleteI tried searching for the string 43 64 2C 00 but could not find. Then started removing characters until searching for only 53 64, and voila, found it and got the unlock code in the next line. IT WORKED.... Thank you so very much...

ReplyDeleteVery good. Worked for me. Thanks. Would this work on any phone?
ReplyDeletewill this work with the Huawei E226?
ReplyDeletePoddak Try karala balapan Machan.
ReplyDeletedanna thramin e220 witharai
well done.
ReplyDeleteTry with E226. Might be worked but not sure. There will be no harm for reading flash file into PC. After that there will be Unlock code in a different location. So search string will not be same as 53 64 2C 00
ReplyDeletePlease update us with d result
Can u send me the flash.bin file me. Then i could help you.
ReplyDeleteIs this possible with E169G?
ReplyDeleteI can get as far as getting the Flash.bin file but then don't know what string to search for to find the unlock code. Any help?
send me your flash.bin file to me. I may help you. indunilabaya@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteAfter creating Flash.bin and opening in Hex Editor XVI32, search for string 53 64 2C 00 turns up no results. I can search "53 64" but there is no 8 digit code shown on the right. Any help?
ReplyDeletesend me your flash.bin file. I may help you. indunilabaya@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteif you keep searching for the string, it will eventually find it..as tutorial says, you knpow which one you need, because it's the only one with 8 digits grouped together..unlocked mine perfectly, to change profile, just create a new profile, and leave everything blank.
ReplyDeleteive been manually scrolling true the flash.bin, at present about 15% complete and already i have found 11, 8 digit numbers. so far none of them work so i will carrying on scrolling...
ReplyDeleteSame problem here It couldnt find the string 53 46 2C 00 what DO I need to do now people?
ReplyDeleteOk after second try it WORKED when i looked only for 53 46 then it found it and the 8 digit number came on the right. It unlocked my HUAWEI E220. Thanks a lot to the Autor!
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by a blog administrator.
ReplyDeleteAnyone tried this with E270 ?
ReplyDeleteIf the string is not the same as 53 64 2C 00 ?
Should I just look for any 8 digits together ?
Thanks
after all that hassle looking for the string, I finally got to try it with a different sim and it is already unlocked. thanks for the help all the same
ReplyDelete@dudeeile - thts wat i said u very early. But you were not care abt my point
ReplyDeleteVery many thanks. The string on my E220, quite an old version, was '53 64 21 00'
ReplyDeleteI´m trying with E226 but i cant find that string. Do you have any ideia what would be the string for the E226?
ReplyDeleteThanks and unlocked successfully. However, as some of the reader above, I can only find the string "53 46", and find the unlock code in the next line.
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteHello. I got the 8 digit numbers then entered it to the SIM unlock but i got error message (Open port failed) what means that? plz can anybody help me.
ReplyDeleteCan this also work on the E160? There is no string 53 46 ...

ReplyDeleteThank you very much pal...
ReplyDeleteE160 is unlocking by IMEI number. So this method is not working for E160
ReplyDeleteMan! It works perfectly! Million Thanks to you!
ReplyDeleteHey, i understand this process is ment for the e220 modem and that the hex string is 53 64 2c 00. So , what about the hex string for the e160 model??? any one help please
ReplyDeleteis this work for e1550 modem
ReplyDeletei couldnt find the string! i've searched manually by scrolling but couldnt find the right 8-digit code. i've found several codes n tried to unlock but was unsuccessful.
ReplyDeleteHello Machan the device not ready kiyala enawa hethuwa mokakda.mata meka unlock karaganan oni plz help me soon mata karanna oni step tika mail karanna,
ReplyDeleteHI I'm stuck at the part with the XVI32 Hex Editor. I loaded flash.bin and there's nothing! Any idea what went wrong?
ReplyDeleteI did QC Mobile correctly and I had 'successfully read EFS'.
Works perfectly, nice post!! I have E220 from Vodafone UK, and actually the unlock code is not as exactly described in this post.
ReplyDelete1. Don't search for the full string 53 64 2C 00, only search for 53 64. There are likely to be a couple of instances, you want the first instance of this.
2. The unlock code is not exactly after it, it's maybe next line down in the hex util. Look for 8 numbers in the ASCII window on the right, 1 line below the 53 64 string - it's very obvious what the unlock code is. There are no other sequential numbers around it.
Other than that, excellent post! I am sitting here happily on Virgin Australia using an unlocked VF UK E220!
Search for "Sd" as Text string and you will get the same result !!!
ReplyDeleteis this work for e1550 modem
ReplyDeleteHello!
ReplyDeleteI worked out to find the unlock code
but get "open port failed!"
Any idea whats wrong?
thx in advance!
hi. please help i cannot find the hex string and the Sd doesnt show any group of numbers. my modem is e226. ty.

http://unlocke220.blogspot.com/2010/04/unlock-huawei-modems.html
Yay! Thanks for this.
ReplyDeleteOk so for those that struggle. Here is the low down.
First off, just search for 53 64 on the matrix.
Then even if you get 53 64 21 00 use the 8 digits on the opposite side, even if its a row below.
Then I got an error message "open port failed" This is cause your system is trying to access the dongle with more than 1 program.
I then installed the unlocker on my desktop and ran the number through there.
Voila! Both Tmobile and Three unlocked.
Tested my Tmobile dongle with the Three sim. Yes, worked!
Thanks!

Those who get the error massage "Failed to open port". Plug the Modem without the sim card or disconnect it from mobile partner and close all the programs which try to connect to the internet. Then run the Unlocker. Will be fine.
ReplyDeleteHey thanks so much it worked, first I got the port error but then I just followed what Dian Joubert said and it worked like a dream.
ReplyDeleteCheers guys
you saved me having to throw away my old modem
Cracking is a success. but when connecting, all sim cards connect on any profile selected. Hope it doesn't charge extra.
ReplyDelete- I updated the firmware.
ReplyDelete- Then I tried to read this VERNUM. = it says "successfuly send command" but the info is empty.
- Then I tried to read the EFS:
it shows me a very slow progress bar and after 10 minutes or so it says "please register!!!" and the software ends.
hey, the simlock is removed only by installing the firmware.. it was not necessery (and for me possible) to download the patch, and install the simlock... i can use any sim card and network :) thanks.-

I can't find the 8 digit unlock code.
