So i have a LWW (WT19i), I recently rooted it and flashed it.
I installed this rom about two weeks ago with CWM
HTML:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1490166
i currently have my phone rooted and using MIUI, roottoolbox, titaniumbackup and stuff....
The weird thing is that, in the description of the ROM it says that unlocked bootloader is required,
but it was working perfectly with my locked bootloader, until yesterday.
The phone started crashing and freezing out of nowhere, apparently it had something to do with overclocking it
because I disabeled the overclocking and it worked a bit faster but just... not like it was working a week ago
it freezes sometimes, google chrome takes like two eternitys to load.
maybe it is because of the bootloader thingy??? i don't know...
and why did it work in the first place?!?!
does it mean CM works also?
so i guess the only thing i have to do is get a full wipe and install the ROM again? or maybe some other ROM
i really want to install CM9 it seems really interesting, but.... freaking bootloader....
So i'm kind of lost... i'm really lost.... apparently i can't use CM9.1 or MIUI because i dont have unlocked bootloader, but they work anyhow?
and i can't unlock it, i really have no idea how to do it. i've read like 158932 different tutorials and they are all different
some tell me i can't do it, it won't ever work and i should drown in my tears for all eternity, and others tell me i have to download freaking eclipse
and start programing in java...
i just get lost with that many incoherence....
I really want to install a nice and comfortable rom so i can rest and use the phone
im just tired of flashing and rooting and reflashing.
....CM9... 10?... looks nice.....
so, are there any sugestions ???? what should i do?
should i just reinstall MIUI what if it gets slow again ?
also... can someone please for the love of Godzilla explain me how can i unlock my bootloader ?? if it is possible
you guys probably get this a lot but sorry for my poor english...
thanks a lot
bye

Does you phone has Sim lock? ok so u can check this by hiting the *#*#7378423#*#* and go to service info/ SIM lock. see the pic? if it has any lock, you can try this it may work: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1675718 good luck and anything just let us know
From my opinion its impossible to unlock bootloader if its not allowed. If you want the taste of custom rom then change the phone

i just went on the unlock bootloader part of the se website and filled it out and it gave me a key to unlock!
has anyone tried this for there mini pros?
i may try and i will keep note of my key but i think it wont be able due to lack of a search key to get into fastboot any ideas on how to get into fastboot?
From what I've heard, it generates a key from any IMEI, even from HTC Desire.. But yeah, it would be nice
well thats not so good news.
yep just tried with t610 and it gave me code. oh well so much for them accidentally allowing us to unlock bootloader...

there is a thread which was ongoing in X10 forum (not sure if its dead now ;-). This needs fastboot to work which is not present for x10 and mini and pro ..so its of no use at all. Check that thread for more info.
so, as title says i am getting my neo (not neo V) tomorrow.
i see diferent ways to unlock the bootloader, also a ways to relock it.
as i dont know what version it will be what is the safest path to having CM7 on it?
is there something i should know/be aware of before starting to flash it. (shiny brick on first day yay! no.) like what isnt working properly (bravia on cm7?) 3d games on cm7? battery drain?
any info would be cool. thx in advance!
do not flash android 2.3.2 it will brick your phone.

I know it can be equal, but we (especially newbies) were always in doubt because the title refers to Neo V!

Hey guys, its atrixno4g and i was wondering if their is away to rom the atrix running 2.3.6 with .141. Oh and if someone could tell me about this unlocked-bootloader thing is all about ( is it when the phone is unlocked?) and how to get the clockworkmod recovery i think its called.. I recently got this phone and without doing any research i used a program called RSD Lite and flashed some sbf to downgrade or something and instead bricked my phone- but i fixed it now. So basically can someone just give me a brief summary about all this, i dont want to brick my phone again.

Yeah, they are outdated. Like the bootloader thread, its outdated, but its still the way to do it. Theres no newer way. After that, root it. After you root it just install cwm from the market don't follow any threads on it.

Like everyone has said you gotta search. A sign you haven't even looked in those threads is the fact you said they're outdated even though they have responses that are very recent, indicating people with your version and firmware might be commenting. It's a lot of reading and it should be because if you mess it up you could brick your phone. Read everything you can and then read it again. I can guarantee you can unlock, get clockworkmod working, and flash a ROM onto your phone (my guarantee is limited to the US AT&T atrix)
Thanx for everything guys- now i root first or unlock bootloader?

It was a leak, we need a new leak from Motorola, this was not a hack at all so we can't just reuse something.
First of all, THANK YOU everyone for taking some time to answer every question. I really appreciate it. I have been reading, and reading for hours...my eyes are starting to bleed.
So... there is NO WAY we can get a better Android than the 2.3.5?
My build number says 4.5.1A_SUN_USC_19.0, that means I cannot unlock the bootloader, isn't it?
Is there another way (hack?) to improve the performance of the cellphone? I have root it, just to change some files I couldn't, e.g. the sound of the camera.
And finally... is it THAT bad being stucked on 2.3.5?

Some people are trying to use kexec, which is a way to bypass the bootloader and install a rom. it will take some time though. I'm not stuck on 2.3.5 so i cant comment on that.

Thank you, I'll search about "kexec".
The reason I was asking if I was stuck on 2.3.5 was regarding to my build number. I don't know how to conclude it's an ota or not.
You can attempt the Pudding Bootloader unlock, it is unlikely to succeed, but it may be possible. You do risk bricking the device though.

Unlocked bootloader
Well, it appears that I am still the only Photon owner around with 2.3.5 and an unlocked bootloader. Unfortunately mine was some sort of freak accident that it happened. I can run run custom recovery and flash all day long. Unfortunately if I install a ROM with any other version (or maybe it's the kernal) it will not work. It will boot up fine but nothing will connect at all. I've tried almost all of them........
You know what guys, I really miss honeycomb. Especially the way you add widgets and also the customization that Sony did with the app drawer- they shouldn't have gotten rid of it in my opinion.
I still have my old Tablet S (Although with a cracked screen sadly)
Is it possible (I have root) to downgrade to 3.2?
Why did Google get rid of the awesome screen which added widgets.
Or perhaps someone could send the launcher?
Ive done extensive research and tried many methods and asked people alot smarter than me it cant be done until the bootloader is u locked. Once it is than we can the reason is because the recovery has been updated in the current version of android and once it is you cant go back because it is part of the Rom and is hidden. Yes ive tried downgrading and before I got bootlooped it said cannot because of recovery version. I WASTED about 2 months on this idea as well as a few other people and also Condi the best dev we have over here for the tablet s has tried and theres still no way until the bootloader. Ive also looked at testpoint unlock but if you've ever looked at the motherboard theres gazillions of testpoints so who knows which is the right one plus taking it apart isnt exactly a walk in the park like it is with phones. Youll just have to wait like me. Btw head over and sign the bootloader unlock petition.
