Telus/Bell Phone Box Cracking

by CerealKillah

Ok first let me put things clear : I'm a french canadian so this text should have some spelling mistake, but hey, who give a fuck ? If you have a problem with that, get the fuck back !But to my knowledge, it's the ONLY tutorial to swiftly open phone box, so make an effort since i've wasted some time writing this.

And i obviously only tested this trick on the great Québec territory, but as Telus is countrywide, it shall work trought the Canada.I know it work on Telus phonebox, wish are the old bell box... maybe it will work on other compagnies phone box, i dunno.

It's a pretty simple trick and if you have some time on your hand, you will easily get the content out of the box. One of my friend got this from a guys he met at school, and it's fucking hilarous to actualy unlock the box... of it go like this :

First, you will need a nail or something long with the tip bended. It should be bended about one half-inch. Since you will use this as a key, it need to be wide enought and not bend easily. The phonebox key hole look like that #0# and are like 1/2 inch deep. YOu will also need a bag to put the quarter in it and another brain would be useful to decript the password (explanaition next)I advise you to look closely at the lock on a phone box before getting to business, since your tool need to be tip-top.

Second, ok now let'S get into the important phase, say, you are in the cabin, with one of your friend.The first thing you need to do is, without hang up the phone, type 2727378. You will be pleased to see something like : Please enter your PIN number.....

ok, this PIN, is a five number password, and you need to guess it, but it'S more easy than it seem. Lemme give ya some trick: those operator are lazy bastard, and get in your head that they have probably 100 cabin to check, so the PIN number should be simple since it would be too hard to memorise 100, differents,five number PIN. Try some obvious like : 12345,54321,1800,66666,11111,00000... or check for a five digit number near the phone...and you can see it as word too! yesterday i got the PIN of one, it was Telus backward, (78538) i suspect that it have a maximum of eight different five digit working PIN per cabin.

Another way to bypass that electronique lock is to "play" with the interface...lemme me explain. After typing 2727378 on the phone, the PIN request show up, with other "instruction". Those are : (losange) = Clear,(star) = Save, (square) = Enter

To do thing more easily, type a dump pin, like 12345, then, press on the star (to save your password). The box, insteed of asking you a five digit PIN, will ask you for a 3 digit operator password, wich is really less pain in the ass the decypher. Like for the PIN, this should be a easy pass like : 123,321,666,111,911,119 ... you get it don't ya ? now, the box will save your PIN (in this case 12345) and you will only need to go back at the PIN aking, and type the pass you've just saved ! Pretty easy eh?

When the PIN will be correct, the box will print something like "You can now open the box with the key"

so you take your tool, and open the front lock !!! You can't describe the happy feeling you get for defeating that electronique lock eheh...

Ok if you didn'T really get it, (cauz of my shitty typing) just remember one thing : 2727378, type this on the box, and you should be able to figure the rest!

I hope you will get some quarter when you are broke and that you will thing about me :P if you get any comment/question/advises or other tricks like this, just drop me a mail at [email protected] and i'll be happy to share anything with ya! I hope this will be useful for many people...
