you dont need to copy update_su in external sd card
turn on ur phone and copy update_su in internal phone memory
reboot ur phone in recovery update via update_su
resatrt and now unlock ur phone

I have spent many hours trying to unlock this phone with ver. 18.1, solution for me was ver. 16.0, rooted 2.3.6 and just press unlock, no need to enter 8 zero phone is unlocked
