YES, I have 11w41, I unlocked my BL and I have now Alfs-8 with firedroid 1.1.
But I'm very lucky and my phone is s special one. Only one bug that is caused by the unlock procedure: I can't send text messages, it's just "sending" it, never gets done.

i know u asking this for me? ... i search on google but i say when i find someone with JFET cabel then i gonna try unlock bootloader (via eBay myb )

Better don't try so you won't hard brick you're phone. Some people are lucky , some don't . So better use you're phone as it is right now.
Press thanks button if i helped you with my answer !

Will see fenix.

Brainfart For some reason I thought it was the older, not the newer versions, which have problems with bootloader, but, you're right, it's the newer ones

My W8's Bootloader

Hi! I wanna ask is IMEI code important to unlocking bootloaders?
Thanks....
Sent from my W8 using Tapatalk
noting to do with that

Lol no, it has nothing to do with Bootloader. Go ahead and goodluck, you'll need it . haha
Okay.. I read a few instructions on unlocking bootloader, I dont actually understand it. It's so COMPLICATED!!

Unlock your bootloader its easy as rooting. I was scared at first, but when I tried and when it finished, I asked myself Is that all? Trust me its quick and easy. But make sure to follow the instructions carefully, and that ur phone is ok to unlock the bootloader

10W51 means manufactured in year 2010 week 51, phones manufactured last year from week 29 may end in hard brick.
so, in short terms, your phone is old and because of that you don't have to worry about this

can i update my w8 phone 11W42 to alfs kernel?

DOES any one has done it before please let me know?
please
no you cant!!!! you will hard brick your phone if you try to unlock bootloader!!!!!!!!

YES, I have 11w41, I unlocked my BL and I have now Alfs-8 with firedroid 1.1.
But I'm very lucky and my phone is s special one. Only one bug that is caused by the unlock procedure: I can't send text messages, it's just "sending" it, never gets done.

Do you recently disable some app with Autostarts? Once I had that problem and solved by enabling Messaging in Autostarts.

Mate, Its to dengerous to Unlocking the bootloader on outdate 11W29+,
Once Hardbrick, you cannot revive ur phone by ur Self, u need to send it in for Repair, and most likely they will change ur motherboard.
But, Maybe Have Someone succesed unlock bootloader on outdate X8?
If yes, yeah ! I want it to, for my 2nd X8

hey dude, well my w8 was on W1129+ but i took the risk and ended up hard-bricking my phone ands as a result had to take it back for repairs... they changed the motherboard (as you said) but didnt change the stickers...
is there anyway i can identify the "week" of my current motherboard?
But with the w8 its waaaay much more risk for a hard brick But the x8 is a little bit more safe ..

Hey Dude,
I think service center replaced the mobo with a pre 11W29 one,
Most likely that the replacement is even newer [11W5x -> 12W0x] than your original motherboard was. There is no way to find out "week" of you mobo except
of the sticker, or maybe you can ask them what the "week" mobo they replaced for you,
Peace,
I unlocked My bootloader and mine is 11w35

The ONLY reliable, and existing, way to tell if the phone is "security fixed" is through "GPG cable connection" ... as detailed by the_laser on setool.net
Also, the ONLY way to unlock the boot loader of 11W29+ devices (without hard bricking) is also by using a combined hardware/software approach. There's NO WAY to unlock the boot loader through software only.

Ok, the road is open for someone which buy the software and hardware and unlock, at good price, phone for all 11w29 in the world... Better if one for country. Could be a way to be busy and rich
This is just a joke, obviously.

11w29+ is RISKY. Just because a couple of people have unlocked theirs does not minimize the risk. you were very lucky.
on topic: google is your friend here. afaik, setool2 is an option if you want to go by the paid route.
