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,

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

Why! Why would you say you unlocked your bootloader?

Its like killing someone and going into the Police Station and asking where you can hide from the Police.

If I take it in for repair and lie are they going to realize what I did?(try to unlock BL)

Many people have done this, bricked their x8's and told SE that the phone suddenly went BOOM etc

[Q] Anyone in Nepal with an X8/W8 + unlocked bootloader?

Just curious as to whether or not it was successful. Thanks. Please let me know if in the wrong section.

I dont understand and whats the connection of the place? You want to ask for help? We can help you. If your phone has this tag 11w29+ up then be very aware that you might brick your phone if it falls 11w28- below then just follow the instructions and your bootloader will be unlocked

What's the place got to do with anything?
sent from my X8 running nAa's ics kernel and nAa's mini CM9

Me guest he just want to know if somebody else(x8/w8 users)in Nepal had manage to unlocked their bootloader & want to asked their guide in Nepal language how to do it.

None, actually. My english is better than my nepali...i have a W8 with 11W20
Just curious...i'll follow one of the guides here, but if there was someone, thought maybe i'd go through the process with him/her. To be honest, i just don't have the courage (yet) to do it, looking at the repercussions.

well, ".if u got Around Q2 2011 & Below of that date then ur date code is below 11W29 & safe to unlocked bootloader"
i don't believe on this statement..
if u're a very faithful person, unlock the bootloader(check with S1tool FIRST !! )
