Dont be afraid. 11w29+ is hardbrick. If its lower and s1tool says simlock certificate(or something like that check bootloader unlocking threads) its safe. Good luck!:good:

Afaik there will always be even a small chance of something going wrong. But then
It's the 11w29+ phones that are really at risk.

Goodluck lukenda. And if you do get your bl unlocked, thanks for your help for those of us with 11w29+. :)

As everyone said before, it's safe as long as the phone isn't sim-locked.

However, regarding Jelly Bean -- as nobodyAtall said on his CM10 development thread, it's "a best effort to support the unsupportable" or something like that; our X8 really, really shouldn't go any further than 2.3. I'm currently on 4.0 and it leaves a lot to be desired -- 2.3 roms are *much* snappier, but for some reason I get terrible battery life on those (that's why I'm on 4.0)

Read Bootloader unlock threads for thatv sim certificate. Everything is explained there.

Mine X8 is 11W19 and i had no problems with unlocking bootloader.

Are u seriously asking these or u are testing us.. u have been here since quite a long time and know a lot more than many of us around..
Any way you can check out the thread by spyderx on unlocking with all the methods and details or mine below for a simple one with some usefull links..
And yes i haven't heard anyone complaining about brick for the one's below 11W29, still no one can assure u on that, there are always a few chances if something goes wrong(very small chance ;))..
Good luck.. :thumbup:
