License Plans

ChimeraTool uses a credit-based license system with three tiers that determine how many unique devices you can service per year:

  • Basic: 100 unique devices per year — suitable for individuals and small shops
  • Professional: 1,500 unique devices per year — for active repair shops
  • Premium: 5,000 unique devices per year — for high-volume businesses and resellers

Some operations (like Read Codes Online) consume additional server credits on top of the license.

ChimeraTool Authentication (Reseller Integration)

ChimeraTool offers a reseller/partner authentication system that allows third-party platforms to verify user identity before processing orders. When you see a "Verify with ChimeraTool" button on a service page, it uses the ChimeraTool authentication API to confirm your ChimeraTool account before delivering credits or activations.

How to Use ChimeraTool: Step-by-Step

  1. Purchase credits on Code-GSM — select your ChimeraTool credits package
  2. Create an account at chimeratool.com if you don't have one
  3. Download & install ChimeraTool software from the official site
  4. Launch the software and log in with your ChimeraTool account credentials
  5. Connect the phone via USB cable (install Samsung/Qualcomm/MTK USB drivers first)
  6. Select the brand tab at the top (Samsung, Huawei, LG, Xiaomi, etc.)
  7. Click "Read Info" first — this confirms the device is detected and identifies the exact model and chipset
  8. Choose your operation — Unlock, FRP Remove, IMEI Repair, Flash, etc.
  9. Follow mode prompts — the software will tell you to enter Download mode, EDL (9008), BROM, or other required mode

Essential Tips & Troubleshooting

  • Always "Read Info" first before any operation to verify device detection
  • Use a short, high-quality data USB cable (not charge-only cables)
  • Install the correct USB drivers: Samsung USB Driver, Qualcomm QC 9008 driver, MediaTek VCOM driver
  • Run ChimeraTool as Administrator on Windows
  • Temporarily disable antivirus — GSM tools access low-level system functions that trigger false positives
  • Back up important data before any flash or format operation
  • If the device is not detected: try a different USB port, reinstall drivers, or try a different cable
  • For Samsung: enter Download mode with Vol Down + Power (or Vol Down + Bixby + Power on older models)
  • For Qualcomm EDL: device should appear as "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008" in Device Manager
