How to unlock Smart, globe or Sun USB Modem easily

There are many reasons why we want to unlock a USB modem also called "USB dongle" (ex. smart bro, globe tatoo, and sun.)
My personal reason of doing this trick is for me to be able to choose a better signal for my prepaid internet. I would use any of the three networks depending on the best signal they get.

As of this moment this method supports  E1553 E1550, E155, E156, E156G, E160, E160G, E161, E166, E169, E169G, E170, E172, E176, E180, E182E, E196, E226, E270, E271, E272, E510, E612, E618, E620, E630, E630+, E660, E660A, E800, E870, E880, EG162, EG162G, EG602, EG602G, Vodafone K2540 Vodafone K3515 Vodafone K3520 Vodafone K3565 Vodafone K3715.

Let's start





1. Go to http://a-zgsm.com/huawei.php

2. At the bottom part of the website you will see a text box that look like this...








3. Enter your USB Modem's IMEI number in the text box and the security code provided by the website then hit the calculator button(The IMEI is usually located inside the SIM card compartment of your USB modem)


4.Scroll down to the bottom part of the page and you will see your unlock code. (it will look like something below..)









 5. Insert your non native SIM on your usb modem. (You can do this by putting globe or sun SIM card in a Smart Bro USB modem if you are unlocking your smart bro modem for example..  Or inserting smart Sim card on USB globe tatoo modem or sun cellular.)

6. Then run your USB modem dashboard and a popup window will appear asking you for the unlock code. (dasboard look like this below... in case you don't know :)) )













7. Enter the code you have generated from a-zgsm website.

YOUR USB MODEM NOW IS UNLOCKED!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!
