So, when using the link in OP I got this:

Information on IMEI ---------
Type Allocation Holder Sony Ericsson
Mobile Equipment Type Sony Ericsson Xperia X8
GSM Implementation Phase 2/2+


Information on range assignment
Est. Date of Range Issuance After Jan 2003
Reporting Body PCS Type Certification Review Board (PTCRB)
Primary Market North America
Legal Basis for Allocation PCS Type Certification

Information on number format
Full IMEI Presentation --------
Reporting Body Identifier 01
Type Allocation Code -----
Serial Number --------
Check Digit 1


What does it mean? I had to send my X8 to SE Service Repair because of failed attempt to unlock bootloader. Now the sticker beneath the battery says 11W26... How can I see if I can safely unlock bootloader?

I think ur IMEI is not in their database if u got Est. Date of Range Issuance After Jan 2003
.Now for sure,are u got 11W26 after repaired it?If that so,is a big chance they replaced ur m/b with that date & if u ask me,I say u should go for it.Just remember that even ur date is below 11W29,doesnt mean its u will 100% success to u/b.So take time to read every step carefully and keep ur eyes,mind & hand sharp while do it.Like always,me not take responsible if u kill u phone...again.bye

As long as the sticker's number is 11w38 you shouldn't try, but you may want to give it a try as you are under warranty... your choise:angel:.
