And I think the DRM will be lost A small thought of mine is that you should disable the 2 last buttons and enable them only after the user has completed the previous step.

Thanks for your translation. DRM will be lost. We cannot disable 2 last button because if you have an unlock code you dont need to get it again . Just double click in 2nd text field and type unlock code after that click Unlock button . And if you already unlock your phone you can flash customkernel to root or install CWM and somethings else
