Thats an epic fail. To them who don't understand it I DONT HAVE WINDOWS AND I DONT WILL NOT BUY A WINDOWS LICENCE?

did you people get my point now or should I repeat one more time!?
You don't have to buy a windows license... If you insist on doing it the official way you can simply download this official windows vm completely legally without having to pay anything.

You don't have to buy a license for anything. There is an officially available VM that requires no purchase whatsoever. Couple that with VirtualBox with a USB passthrough, and your argument literally doesn't exist anymore.

Just a quick comment: I have purchased Sailfish X from Jolla Shop. I used a voucher that I have received from the Jolla Tablet Refund, and during the whole process, the only geographic-dependent step was agreeing with the terms of conditions, which in particular mentions that Sailfish X is currently being sold only in EU/Norway/Switzerland.

Indeed, we do not know yet how much different the process is going to be if one will not be using a voucher, and also how the download procedures will exactly go. I think the easiest is simply wait, we should learn that in a week.

I can confirm that flashing this image via the open source flashtool unlocks the oem partition for fastboot flashing!

So no requirement for emma at all and flashing Sailfish X on Linux/macOS will most likely just be a matter of updating using flashtool and replacing the flash.bat with this flash.sh!

Excellent. Though I spotted the md5sums don't match for flashtool downloads. I posted about it in the unlocking boot loader thread.

Hoping someone can share their md5sum of flashtool to workout if website md5 is wrong or files tampered with.

At the very least the flashtool.net website appears to be the official one since it's linked in the top post of this immensely popular xda-thread so it's probably just a mistake by the person who maintains the website (especially since if someone took over the website for malicious purposes and changed the links to infected ones they could also have changed the md5sum to the infected version).

Good. Your comments are consistently disruptive and unproductive. Rather than contributing to the discussion at hand, you're complaining about semantics... when your version of the semantics aren't even true.

If you don't wish to flash an Xperia X with Windows, don't. But please, let this community continue onward with the task at hand.
