If you find a lockbox that is locked, you will need your Skills and Gadgets to unlock it. For more help on Sleeping Dogs, read our Jade Statues Guide.
How To Unlock a Lockbox
When you find a lock box that is locked, you will need your phone to find the combination required to open the case.
Move your left thumb stick slowly while watching your phone’s display. You need to match the three numbers in order to open the lock box.
When you are close to these numbers, the blue line on phone’s display will turn yellow indicating that you are close.
When you have found the correct number, the line will turn green indicating that you have found the correct number. You need to turn the left thumb stick clock-wise and then anti-clockwise to unlock these lock boxes.
Once you have found the correct combination by matching all three numbers, the lock box will open, and you can retrieve its content.
