Anyone here with local set unlocked their XS?

I know timberland unlocked his phone's bootloader. I'm just waiting for ICS to be released for Xperia S before I unlock the bootloader. For me, the main intention of unlocking the bootloader is to have root and to be able flash custom ROMs / kernels. But if I unlock now, and then ICS is released and there is no known exploit to root Xperia S ICS, then it defeats my intention.

My intention is to remove those junks

And of course for custom ROM, if there's any good ones.

The official ROM to me is pretty snappy and stable already IMO.

I want to get rid of those junks too. ICS should be coming up soon for XS

 

[CoolSilverRider]

My original couldn't be salvaged during the screen replacement...

Waiting for them to let me know if the replacement of the screen had arrive. My yellow spot like quite big liao...

my yellow spot like stock market... just now ran screen test app again when it seem to look less... n has indeed subsided quite a bit...

when it's there, my battery temp oso not high... dun understand the cause of it...

After receiving back my handset back from the service center with the replaced LCD (which also still has some amount yellow tint), somehow, the long absence of XS taught me to become less sensitive on the yellow thing... Life without XS was more of a nightmare relatively.

same same... ask u, send it for screen replacement, ur data when get back still there?

lol did not sent in my phone yet... I think the cause for the yellow tint is due to the heat issue. If I start using it again, the tint will reappear.

 

[ragnarok95]

Send in my phone on the 16th... wonder what is my chances of getting back the phone this week.

It is widely known that the tint appears when the phone is hot. Sony already said that "the display on a limited number of Xperia S smart phones may show a slight yellow tint if exposed to temperatures above 40 degrees Celsius."
