Ok
1st: b.jay isnt mad or angry or anything, he is simply helping people who fail to read the most important words and just look at the thanks they get, 11w42 are you f%&@ing crazy!?!?! Lol
You do realise that there are about 6 threads about exactly NOT doing this!
Anyway , tell em that you were playing a game when it suddenly crashed your phone and it dont respond or turn on at all, even.after charging

Not being a douche or anything but it does clearly say everywhere that you WILL get a HARD BRICK if you try to unlock your bootloader if your manufacturing date is 11w30 or over.
Sorry about your phone btw.
Good luck,
- Shane

Why would I be mad at you?
I CLEARLY told you by PM: "DO NOT TRY"
Additionally there's also the hard brick warning sticky over in the X8 General section.
If you decide to disregard each and every warning that has been given to you - your dismay, not mine.
As posted for quite some times now: There's no way by which ANYONE of us can help you now. The phone is dead and beyond any repair possibilities you can try at home. It seems you already found out that the last option is to send the phone off to SE for repair.
I just wouldn't recommend telling them outright what you did - otherwise the response could turn out to be: "Oh, so you tried to unlock the boot loader? Why thank you for telling us, because hacking your phone voids your warranty. Thank you very much for choosing Sony Ericsson and we hope you continue to enjoy our products."
Best shot would be to tell them it suddenly didn't work anymore.
Oh, and once you get the repaired phone back...
DO NOT TRY TO UNLOCK THAT DAMN BOOT LOADER AGAIN!
The warning clearly doesn't exists to run a prank on y'all ... the warning is clearly there to prevent such situations (and at least with the X8 the critical manufacturing date code IS 11W29 - no matter what other "OMFG mah unlocked mah 11W40 no probs kthxbye" post).

Holy sh! 7! Not again....

Just put it in trash...i don't think they will replace it with a new one or repair moneyfree so you will need to pay. I think you should buy a new one from ebay or another site they have them in pretty low price...i hope your battery code this time will be under -29

He's not angry, he is kind hearted but he isnt angry,
In fact b.jay and irushstuff09 are right, there are millions of threads saying not to unlock your bootloader.
SO WHY THE %!£$ HAVE NONE OF YOU LISTENED TO IT!!!
Try checking this
OR this
or might i just put some quote around this:
This post is intended to point your attention to the simple fact that there's a hardware imposed danger to hard brick your Xperia X8 and W8, applies to E15i/a and E16i/a, at the attempt to unlock the boot loader!
The phones affected by the problem are units being manufactured at, and after, 11W29!
To check if your device is affected by the problem follow this simple steps:
Turn off the phone and open it up
Take out the battery
Look at the sticker below
If the date code on the sticker reads 11W29, or any later date (11W30, 11W31, 11W32, 11W33, ...), DO NOT attempt to unlock the boot loader.

(Thanks b.jay for your thread)
I do have the answer to this:
The new (2011/2012) SE phones (or just new xperia x8's) have a security hole. They have a revamped chipset configuration. This basically means that attempting to unlock your bootloader will end up in a hard brick, and there is no way to revive the phone yourself
I was lucky cuz my date is 10w46
Hope this helped

Sugesstion to prevent NOOBS brick their phone

Lately,i see many of noobs install a rom in dev sec b4 read what its requirement & end up with bricking.
My suggest, a filter in download link which is direct to some form to tick correctly a requirement for specific roms.(similar with membership form).This form can be determined by dev of the roms & real download link will be open if they tick a right answer.for exp;
Phone model-x8/w8 tick/untick
Root tick/untick
Recovery System
Xrecovery tick/untick
CWM tick/untick
Baseband
xx06 tick/untick
xx15 tick/untick
Unlocked bootloader
Yes tick/untick
No tick/untick
Kernel
Stock tick/untick
Costum(can edit by dev)tick/untick
I know this will be annoying for some of us but prevent is better than cure
Hope colossus will see this & consider it.

Not a bad idea
But it will be very difficult to implement it. Practically impossible as I see it.

This can be done on google docs, create a form there... easy to implement...

Looks like Just SoftBrick dude [hardbrick means when your phone cannot be powered on]
You Relock Bootloader? Unlock it again
Flash ICS nAa Kernel, Flash MiniCM9 as simple is that
Or Using Pcc/SEUS, Flash All again to Stock Rom/Kernel.
Then, Using s1tool, check wheter you phone Already Unlock bootloader or Not.
If Not, Unlock Bootloader First,
If Yes, Flash kernel, Then Rom
Dont Forget to FULL WIPE
Just My opinion

And
What does a bootloader do?

[Q] [Question] Bootloader ROM Unlocked?

I installed XPerience and in Requirements it says i need to have BootloaderUnlocked...
I once tried to unlock my bootloader and my phone was hard brick...
The guys that fixed my phone said that the motherboard is dead and they changed it...
Now i wonder do i have bootloader unlocked or not and how can i see if it is?
