What does this do?
This is simply a graphical front end to the_laser's Windows batch files, with the added questions to prevent accidental device bricking.
Can I use this without having to downgrade to 2.1?
Yes, but make sure you follow 9Lukas5's guide here. Just disregard the third bullet point and use my program instead
How hard is it to use?
Not hard at all. Just click the big "Unlock Bootloader"* button
What is the point of this?
For people who don't like black backgrounds and white texts, but feel more comfortable with GUIs
Will you release the source code?
Now? No. In time, yes. Why not now? This is just a quickly developed application and the code is rather embarrassing at the moment
Do you plan to further develop this program?
Indeed I do. I plan to make it a nicer GUI, implement automatic kernel flashing (for those who use 2.3.x), and much more robust. As aforementioned, this is simply a quick mock-up.
Download:
VERSION 0.1.1:
Download the attached file below, "x10_bootloader_unlock.zip", or by clicking here.
Changelog:
Code:
0.1.1 (11/09/2011):
- Fixed ADB errors.
- Fixed "Bootloader" misspelling on button.
0.1 (10/09/2011):
- Initial Release.
Announcement:
Dear members,
My priority is the X10. I apologise if you feel left out because of this. However, have no fear, because as soon as my implementation for the X10 is complete then the X8 (and other devices) will soon follow (like, almost immediately)
Regards,
Mayazcherquoi.
PLEASE REPORT BUGS. I HAVE NOT TESTED THIS!!!
* Please ignore the spelling mistake on the button

What about phones previously unlocked with SETool/Omnibus? Is there some kind of detection in the program?

It will ask if you have unlocked it via SETool or another method. If SETool, it will execute the appropriate code. Otherwise, it will show a friendly little popup box saying that it won't do it because it will risk your device

handy tool for X10'ers ,nice work appreciated.

---

For those who haven't unlocked their boot-loaders yet and want to, can you please try this program? :s I have a feeling it will freeze when it is waiting for your device to be connected... :/

@OP
u do know that there is a edited module posted for rooted 2.3.3 ROM... so there should be no need to do kernel downgrade if u have rooted 2.3.3 ROM...

I was not aware, my apologies. I was just going by 9Lukas5's guide which I thought was updated, and I still found references of having to downgrade the kernel. Please link me to this module?

Thank you.
For users, please bare in mind that this tool does exactly the same thing as the batch file! So take the same precautions as you would, this just adds some security checks (questions) to prevent accidental brickings and gives you a "one-click" unlock solution!
Thanks

---

I was gonna wait till more stuff came out which took advantage of the bootloader but oh well ... do I have to downgrade the kernel etc?? or is it just plug in and press button kinda thing?
Edit: Ah dm didn't read fully

Thanks!
Now i see in the package you have mapper_2.6.29.ko, is it needed to downgrade the kernel then?

Hi! I have an idea! X8 and X10 mini can also unlock the bootloader now. It will be great to add the support for x8 and x10 mini in your tool!
And this is the tool for x8 and x10 minihttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1254525
