Unlock and/or unfreeze Samsung Z??? phones (Z140/V, Z300/M, Z500/V, ZM60, ZV30, ZX10)

[UnlockBR]

@chuckzster,

Tried with and without SIM. Both ways I got the same result....

Tried with a Z130 and with a Z500 USB cables. I do have another USB cable (USB/PS2) and as I have E720 and U8110 PS2 I could try, but when inserted this cable ask for a driver and it is not the USBtoSerial or Samsung3G drivers...

NOTE: Even making jump on pins 2-3 or 3-4 I always get a "Can't Open COM1" error message. Any advice?

Tks

Best Regards,

[bonghernz]

after installing drivers check your device manager on what virtual com it is located.. preferably not com 1...

What if I don't have USB cable, but got LG 3G connector? How to modify it to be able to unlock ZV10?

[Tom17]

I got a Z140v that I have been trying to unlock for some time now. I have even paid someone from another forum who said they could give me an unlock code for it and he just ended up giving me the codes to set the auto network and subset locks, which do not work for me. I will try and get my money back from him I think.

Anyway, I followed the instructions in this thread and have got further than before, except I am getting a problem where winIME exits after i click on "read settings" button. Lots of promising looking stuff whizzes by in the status screen on the left, but it closes before I can read it properly.

Anyone else had this problem? Any idea how I can fix this? I tried a few different versions of WinIME that I found but they all did the same thing.

I did the com1 trick with an old connector and that is OK and I am using the USB cable that came with the phone. I downloaded the latest CDMA drivers from the samsung site.

HELP!!!

The reason I never used it is that it doesn't exactly unlock the phone; it works because there probably is a bug on the programming of the phones that makes them ignore the other type of network locking by auto-locking the actual SIM's network. So it's not the real unlocking of the phone; it's just a way of making the phone work with the SIM you want by locking the phone to the SIM's network with an different type of locking that seems to work by itself beside the other lockings. I'm also not sure that those codes remove "phone freeze" and I guess not because it's not their function to remove it (but it could also happen as it isn't even supposed to unlock any phone... just some, in some operators). It's an illusionall unlock, but for ocasional situations it's probably more usefull because it's quick.
If anyone really wants to unlock and/or unfreeze the phone, it should do it the way I did and that it's explained above.

About the cable connector, I just said above that the person should have the proper USB cable for it's phone. I did not said which cable is, but I guess all the phones bring it in it's box (at least they should, just like mine).

Thanks... Good solution...100000% ok and tested....

The explanation for how to do is already on this forum but to make it easier for everyone to find it, I'm making my 1 for all (Z series phones) post.
The supported phones for this process are (the Z series phones):
(as listed in the program)
SGH-Z140
SGH-Z140V
SGH-Z300
SGH-Z300M
SGH-Z500
SGH-Z500V
SGH-ZM60
SGH-ZV30
SGH-ZX10
To unlock and/or unfreeze these phones you must follow the next steps:
- Download and install QUALCOMM UNLOCKER (http://www.megaupload.com/?d=39RITNDZ)
- Install the propper USB drivers for your mobile (if it comes with CD, if that CD has the USB drivers, it's those ones that you should use, otherwise, download: http://org.downloadcenter.samsung.co...USBDriver.exe).
- Have the proper USB cable for your mobile (if it comes with one, it's that one that you should use).
- After having your phone correctly connected to your computer (using the USB cable) and turned ON (with or without the SIM inserted), set the mobile modem COM port as one between port 2 to port 9 (ports 2 and 9 included). [Note]
- Connect (with something like a metallic wire for example) the 2nd and 3rd pins of the COM1 port (behind your computer), like the example below (imagine it like a COM - 9 pinned - port):
…………………………………………... ______
……………………………………………( · — · · )
…………………………………………...\ · · · · /
'…………………………………………... ¯¯¯¯¯
- Before attempting to unlock your mobile (though everything looks OK), click on the "Read Settings" to be completely sure that the program is completely detecting your mobilephone and to make it able to unlock it (by reading the phone's internal codes).
- After all the previous steps... Press UNLOCK. It will remove all the phone locks and the phone freeze (if needed).
[Note]: To set the COM port, run the QUALCOMM UNLOCKER program and click on "Check Modem", then, in the "Phone and Modem Options" menu, click on the "Modem" tab, select your mobilephone on the modem list and then click proprieties. In the modem proprieties menu, you must click on the "Advanced" tab and then click on "Advanced Port Settings". In the "Advanced Port Settings menu, there should be a dropdown list, in the bottom of the window, to select the desired COM port for your mobile. The port must not have 2 digits - like COM10 or above - and it's not convenient to be set as COM1. Select one of the unused and confirm everything by clicking all "OK" buttons.
Then you'll have your phone completely free of lockings and freezings. I did it with my own Z300 and, after doing it just like I described, it finally worked.
Hope this thread was usefull and enjoy your phones without restrictions.

Minorka you are the best
