hi !

They say " you can’t unlock the boot loader if you have a SIM lock protected phone", what do you think about it ?
Or  am i just a little impatient ?

[theking_13]

Do you have a rooted phone? If so, download Rom Manager from the Market, and install the ROM from there.

11.... If you are not asked for drivers, and your phone starts to boot as usual, it is not possible to unlock the boot loader on your phone.

i have tried to install manually the android_winusb.inf but nothing hapened

It didn't showed me either so I directly went to the device manager , there you will find S1 fastboot ,right click it , then update driver .. select manually search on the computer from there select x86 or x64(in the driver folder you have downloaded from the link I provided) as per your system configuration then it will prompt its harmful n all .. ignore it .. and then your good to go
hope it helps

Hi, I already tried your instructions. My problem is I can't boot to clockwork mod even though I'm in 4.0.A.2.368 firmware, rooted and bootloader unlocked. I even flashed my rom.
Thanks

First extract the update.zip which is the official release of the cyanogen. you will find a boot.img copy that to your fastboot folder .
Now follow the same procedure as you did for flashing it the first time. once done copy the update.zip to your sdcard directory , then remover the usb and power it on .
YOU WILL SEE XDA DEVELOPERS LOGO !!! on that screen keep pressing the volume down key .. then follow the steps.

try uninstalling it . then again installing it . cz IF U DONT EXPERIENCE CYANOGEN U WILL REGRET
and if this aint helping try going under warranty and replace it for some silly reason you might get a new piece which allows unlocking boot

I retried flashing Sir, I really don't know where I went wrong. I am seeing the XDA Developer Logo(freexperia). But I can't go into clockworkmod. I tried holding up and down, even pressed them simultaneously. Please help.
Thanks

when freexperia shows your need to press vol down a few times, then you come to recovery with cm recovery
