[Nexus 7 General] jimbo0914:
Thanks to the OP for locating the sensor location. I was able to figure out a cheap and easy fix to prevent the magnet from shutting the tablet off when the cover was folded back, pretty simple stuff.

Basically I used a small piece of steel (a steel washer to be precise) taped to the back of the case underneath the tablet, where the magnet would otherwise sit when the cover was folded back.

I'll eventually switch it out with some steel foil to make the shield thinner, but I think any ferrous material should work in shielding the back side of the tablet from the magnet, assuming the magnet is fairly weak. Hope this information helps someone else.

Nice job man !

Somebody please confirm if this is working on Xperia U. As I am lil afraid of doing it. If something goes wrong i will be ****ed up

I know it was working correct on my Mini pro but dont know about Xperia U
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] marcoplo:
so is it official or unofficial way ? or is this just a gui version on the top of the official unlocking
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kartobot:
Just a GUI version of the official thing.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] G-FACE:
It's the official way. It's just simplified.

Flashtool can do the same thing.

Can you do one app to unlock not alowed bootloaders?

My xperia U is bootloader locked :( why sony phone its so dificult to unlock?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] alphine.zzz:
I tested it on xperia U, working for unlocking bootloader, but when I failed ti flash KA ROM, it said the file is to big.

nice work dude, I think you should make a verification if the driver is already installed or not,

because firstly I forgot to install the driver, and this app just was not responding..
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Otkudja:
I have tried two times but it is not working. I have typed IMEI and got unlocking code but when I click on Unlock BL nothing happens.

Light is blue for fastboot, I am on Xperia S - official ICS, not rooted.

Bootloader unlock allowed - YES

Program freezes and I need to reboot virtualbox to remove it from the desktop. I am using it over virtualbox on XP and I am running Ubuntu 12.04
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] tamthanh:
I think you should try it on win7, it only need about 15s to unlock your phone :D
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] quangnhut123:
Please install driver as i said if not work turnoff your phone and your computer after that turn on phone and plugin in windows to install driver !
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] brygse:
Thank you, works for SXP. Lock and unlock the boot loader. I also flash the kernel * img previously saved CWM Recovery v 5.5.0.4.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Otkudja:
I have tried on Win 7 and it works flawless on my SXS. For some reason it could not work over virtual box on two linux machines.

Bootloader unlocked in 10 sec on win 7.

Thanks a lot, earlier I had HTC Sensation and Motorola Atrix and unlocking bootloader on those phones was very difficult. This was just to easy :victory:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] rambg2:
if i use this method to unlock my Xperia S, do i lose my DRM keys? or the 2012 dont have DRM keys?

and if i relock it, will sony know if i unlocked it already?

Sorry for my VERY BAD ENGLISH.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] mrscope:
Interesting question... anyone knows about it ?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] HooLIMAN87:
Sony will know that you unlocked your phone because you give them IMEI, and for DRM keys i think that you will lose them if our phone have DRM keys.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Oggy972:
As far as I remember, Unlocking will wipe the data ...

Is that still right with this tool?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] antonio8297:
if you unlock with this method, you lose the warranty?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] elvirag:
I'm not sure if it was ever true. I unlocked my phone when I had GB and didn't lose data. Lately I wanted to see what version is my phone originally supposed to get so I relocked and unlocked again in ICS. Again, no loss of data.

But back up anyway, you're supposed to always take care of that...

And yes, you lose your warranty. How do you think you get the unlock code? From Sony site... this tool has a script that accesses Sony's site with your IMEI...

Did PC get fastboot driver of XS? you can see the power light is blue during the operation or not? the first when XS connect to PC, it'll turn off fastboot mode very quickly, so you need to press the button "volume-" a little longer, about 2-3 minutes, then the windown will install driver. After that you can use this tool to unlock your phone

But if it's working all the x8 user will come and use it! I've brick mine once 11w43! No respones at all it's completely dead!

Just, before you do it, save your DRM keys.

Also, you can get Bravia back with PimpMyRom from the Play Store.

Bravia doesn't get deleted, it just stops working. So PMR won't do anything neither for xperia, nor for any other phone.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] someone755:
Well I knew Bravia doesn't get deleted, but I thought PMR activates it/installs it. Because it actually made a difference for me and an HTC One X friend...

Even if so, Bravia doesn't work with the whole system: only with Albums and Movies (Films, or whatever) apps made by Sony.

Bravia is a strange thing indeed... :P

did you verified the screenshot with and without the tick on "mobile bravia engine" ?

because it could be only a placebo effect on non-sony phones
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] someone755:
But everyone says that screenshots look the same, Bravia on or not. Presumably, it's only software that 'enhances' the pictures, but can't be seen in screenshots.

you CAN see it

if it's working at least on my xs i could notice. it's not a night and day difference, but at least night and evening

Bravia processes images using software, so you can see difference on screenshots as well. Checked on my own.
