Recently I found instructions on how to unlock a Samsung X475 for free. Unlocking some Samsung mobile phones require an unlock code, however many models such as the X475 from Samsung do not! Don’t let someone convince you that you must pay for a high priced unlock code and instruction to use your Samsung X475 with a different service provider. Below I have provided the full instruction on how to unlock your phone.
Warning: If these unlocking steps do not work the first time with your Samsung phone do not keep retrying, as it could permanently damage your phone!
Unlock Samsung X475
1. Reboot your mobile phone with a SIM card from another carrier
2. At the warning message, type *#9998*3323#. A message will pop up telling you to press exit. Then hit number 7 and your phone will reboot automatically.
3. Now type *0141# and hit the send button.
4. Reboot the phone with your original SIM card.
5. At the message, type 8 zeros (00000000) and your done!
Now that you have an unlocked Samsung X475, you will be able to buy a SIM card for it and use it with any phone carrier. I also found this article from the Phone Scoop forums that has the same method above, but some other codes to use as well. If you have any further suggestions to help other unlock their phone, please leave them below. Thanks!
