Unlock bootloder by sony devlopers - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey as sony has given open offer for all the devlopers for unlocking the bootloder by detailed procedure at thier site with selected types of sony ericsson handsets. I go though the list they provided and saw it can be done on xperia mini too. I want to know, is there any similarities between x8 and xperia mini??
Can it done on x8?
pls give your valuable comments.

Do you mean X10 mini?
If x10 mini is yes, because X8 and X10 mini are same

It can't be done for X8. X8 is 2010 device, this unlocking method is for 2011 and 2012 (maybe) devices.
Only thing that is the same for Xperia Mini and X8 is the scren resolution, nothing else.

It's unfair. Sony give methods to unlock new phones. My brothers xperia mini pro bootloader unlocked by sony's method

No it's xperia mini.
I don't know both are same or not

No. They also support old phones. There is no specified that it is only for new phones

You can't unlock the bootloader of 2010 phones through Sony. Also don't get confused with x10 mini pro and xperia mini pro.

W8 custom rom work fine?

Is x8 cusrom will works fine on w8?
Thanks
Sent from my ST18i using xda premium
Just like the most because it is the same phone but W8 is a walkman and just x8 xperia
Do not have concerns about the roms or software problems
Yeah
Sent from my E15i using xda premium
Yes,ROM made for X8 can also compatible for W8 because they are the same device with same hardware spec and form factor
but you also get bugs and glitches in some ROM that installed in W8. but its very rare to see.
Yes Xperia x8/ Walkman w8 are the same phones with different model names. Before installing any custom rom make sure you update your baseband.

Sony mobile website root.

Has anyone tried rooting their xperia phone using the steps provided on Sony Mobile's website? Does it work and is their a risk of your phone being bricked?
THANKS!!

I think you confuse rooting with unlocking the bootloader. Check the All-in-One thread, everything you need to know is in there.
