Well I think he is saying for phone and not for sim, as far as I know PUK is for sim but correct me if I m wrong.
@OP, Flash again and add an account.

I have been trying for several weeks now to upgrade to 2.3.3 XWJVB, but when the flashing of the firmware completes and the phone restarts, i am asked to type a password. I am not quite sure what to enter and i hope somebody can help me to successfully install 2.3.3 XWJVB.

If that doesn't work I heard that just entering wrong passwords will factory reset it and then it will work.

Hi guys,
I have a question about bootloader unlocking. I know it doesn't unlock the carrier, so I've contacted Three UK and they're obtaining a code for my Xperia X8 that I bought on PAYG which will be £15.34 and can take up to 2 weeks.
My question is that if I go ahead and unlock the bootloader so that I can put newer kernels in (and therefore newer ROMs), will it remove the unlock code they gave me in any form, or will my phone always stay unlocked?
Also, if it goes back to locked, can I use that same code from Three and just unlock it again?
Thanks guys.
Also, I assume if anything goes wrong I can use the Pc Companion to practically wipe back to manufacturers kernel/rom/BL/settings?
You guys can't keep posting the Same question.
Anyway, your phone will get locked original network
Sent from my X8 using XDA
I believe if you use code to unlock SIM you' ll have phone same as one that was never locked. And none of your actions should lock it again.
It would be nice if somebody experienced confirm this, though.

I didn't intend to ask the same question again. I did use the search so I apologise if it's already been asked but I'd love a definitive answer.
My guess is that either way, my IMEI will stay the same of course so in theory the same code could be used numerous times on the phone regardless. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
I think I understand from your post that after unlocking BL it'll revert to original carrier lock? Same code or?

I think my phone had sim lock before i bought it, because it had 2.1 on it.
So i want to unlock the bootloader. In many threads about that i read:
Unlocking the bootloader of your phone will restore the original sim lock of your phone (if you had any) unless if you unlocked with EMMA/IMEI unlock code or it was factory-unlocked or if SE unlocked it!.
However, some users have reported that using msm7227_semc.cmd on their sim-unlocked phones did not restore the sim lock onto their phone. This has not been confirmed as of yet. Unlock the bootloader on your sim unlocked phone AT YOUR OWN RISK!

so is that confirmed now and how safe is it to unlock it. which tool can i use?

If your phone came factory unlocked (no SIM lock by default) then s1tool should tell you "no SEMC simlock certificate found"...
Align that information with the unlock thread in the dev section and you should have your answer (that you can unlock).

really? great so i can safely unlock the bl.?
is flashtool good for that.
with factory unlocked i meant that it had no simlock when i bought it. maybey it had one before because it had 2.1 not the original 1.6 on it and the sellin package was sealed with a sticker of an german provider. so i think it was unlocked and sold as a kind of remaining stock

See this thread and carefully read through the steps dealing with "if you had SEMC simlock certificate".

Actually,no need to reset your phone.Don't wipe your data or it will be gone. Here's a link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QYdkgO1KHmk&feature=youtube_gdata_player

I guess you are talking about unlock pattern
First of all you can disable it at settings>location&security>set up screen lock>pattern.
If you have stolen a phone(lol) and you don't know what's the pattern, you can always full wipe from cwm or restore with pccompanion or seus or flash stock with flashtool

I'm not sure if you just told that you want to steal a phone or you asked how to lock a phone when someone fail to enter the pattern multiple times
I don't know how you can do this but personally I don't see any reason for this,you want to add a lock to the lock so you lock your phone while its locked
Or I just didn't get what you asked:/

Sent from my X8 using xda premium
so you want to factory reset your phone if it got stolen? why do you want to factory reset your phone when it was stolen on the first place? unless you knew the thief anyway, just wanna share, if you failed to enter the correct unlock pattern for 3 times, you will be asked to wait for 30 seconds to re-enter the pattern, then, after re-try for 10 times, and you still unsuccesful to draw the right unlock pattern, you will be asked to enter your google account. after you enter it, it is back to re-enter the unlock pattern. im not sure what is your question on the first place, and if this answer your question
