Expert Tips After Installation
- Update your dongle firmware (if applicable): After launching the new version, go to
Settings > Dongle > Update Firmware. This ensures hardware compatibility.
- Test with a known device first: Before tackling a customer’s expensive phone, test the update on a spare device to ensure your cables and ports are working.
- Join the official Telegram/WhatsApp groups: The UnlockTool team often posts hotfixes and beta drivers in community channels.
⚠️ Important Safety Notes
- Disable Antivirus: Before running the tool, temporarily disable Windows Defender or any 3rd party antivirus. GSM tools often modify system partitions, which antivirus software flags as "HackTool" or "Trojan." This is a False Positive.
- Backup Data: Always advise your clients to back up their data. While UnlockTool is safe, unlocking bootloaders or flashing firmware wipes user data.
- Avoid Cracked Versions: Do not attempt to use "loader" or cracked versions of this update. They often contain malware and will result in your legitimate hardware ID getting banned by the official server.
Compatibility
- Supported OS: Linux (glibc), Windows (10+), macOS (11+), Android (11+), iOS (15+).
- Minimum hardware: 1 GB RAM (mobile), 2 GB RAM (desktop), secure element recommended for full functionality.
- Backwards compatibility: Configuration files from v2024.* should auto-migrate; plugin API v1 still works via adapter but will be deprecated in 2026.
