Unlock with new algo

Open ov1d1u opened this issue 5 years ago • 1 comments

Seems that there are modems which require a different algorithm for the unlock code. While I don't know how to generate unlock codes for those modems I can help with modifying the script and using a generated unlock code to unlock the device:

  1. Get an unlock code at https://huaweiunlockcalculator.com/huawei-new-algo
  2. Edit unlocker.py
  3. At line 247 replace unlockCode = computeUnlockCode(imei) with unlockCode = "66611394" (replace the code with the code from the website above)
  4. Run the script.

This is how I managed to unlock my K3772 modem.

Cool - glad you got this working somehow @ov1d1u!

Sadly - due to a lack of time, knowledge, hardware and talent on my part - I can't improve my script to help anyone else in your situation. But I'll leave this issue open to make it easier to find in the future. I really appreciate you taking the time to leave feedback.
