We regret that due to server problems with the Orange & T-Mobile UK suppliers, we have had to increase prices. We have negotiated an emergency service with another supplier so we can carry on with our service without interruptions, but there may be a delay in the normal 1-3 day delivery

We hope to have normal service resumed asap……

Due to restrictions & loss of service access to the main Samsung Worldwide codes, we have had to change provider. This has resulted in the increase of prices for this service. Hopefully this is a temporary measure & we hope to have the cheaper option resumed in the next few days.

How to unlock Nokia BB5 SL3 with MXKEY (step by step):

1. Identify phones with “Scan Phone” (as usual) to see if it is an SL3 phone.

2. Now go to “IMEI & Security” tab and select “Online Logger”

3. Click “Login“, and if your card is activated SL3 Unlock panel will be visible.

4. Click “Read Phones IDs” to prepare the data which is needed for brute force task (this will also identify if phone is supported or not) then a new file {IMEI}.sha will be created inside the main MXKey folder “{MOBILEEX}\data\SL3\”

5. Now you can select the {IMEI}.sha file and upload to our SL3 server along with the imei:

*If you get a file back from our server which is {IMEI}.cod you need to download it, then go back to main exe, select the file and do “Calculate Codes” to get the unlock codes for your SL3 handset. The unlock codes will be saved as {IMEI}_SP_CODES.txt. You should then Tick “Send to the phone” to directly send the codes to the phone.

Please make sure when uploading your .log file to us that you only upload the .log file and please please make sure that your handset is NOT the new SL3 type containing a 20 digit unlock code as you will still be charged for this service if your unlock log fails due to being new type hash. Please see below for help in understanding how to identify new 20 digit code handsets.

Please read the PM field from your handset before reading the BF Log, and once you have read the pm, open the file and check the length of pm field 120,2:

This is how to tell what code should be used from reading the length of PM 120,2.
134 = SL3 20-digit NCK -> SUPPORTED FOR BRUTEFORCE UNLOCKING
130 = SL3 15-digit NCK ->NOT SUPPORTED FOR BRUTEFORCE UNLOCKING

Due to numerous request’s from customers about using our Nokia BB5 SL3 Hash service, we have decided to provide a little bit of information on how to read the .log file with boxes such as MT Box, Cyclone, UB Box & ATF Box.
