Hi there,
I'm not sure of unlocking the bootloader of my Tipo, cos the last time I installed a custom ROM (Paranoid), my mobile died and fortunately I've recoved it using Update Service.
Now I want to install JB (Pure CM+: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2284432) but I need some help and don't wanna lost the money!
Thanks in advance
to unlock bootloader you must downlad SE bootloader unlocker, install fastboot drivers from its folder, type your imei and press unlock bootloader....very simple

Unlocking bootloader is not dangerous, installing custom kernels might be.

you can unlock your BL in no time but you have to know that after unlocking it your warranty is impaired

your phone didn't die then, it dies when it won't even vibrate or charge, you just didn't know how to flash a ROM.
Thanks for reply, now I've installed CWM Recovery, then I've to unlock bootloader and then flash the zip file.
I used to have a lot of android mobiles... but no one was so "risky"

Does have any of you some method (i mean program) how to root Xperia J JB 4.1.2 firmaware 11.2.A.0.21 BUT WITHOUT flashing and unlocking bootloader? Something like UnlockRoot, Root with Restore by Bin4ry v25 or Super One Click. Note: these three do not work!!!

+1 for that! I would like this also. My bootloader cannot be unlocked, and I really don't want to go through the all-process of downgrading to ICS, rooting, updating via OTA, flashing etc.
Is this working ?
Just a clean install of 11.0.A.7.5 firmware --> root with unlockroot --> (only) OTA upgrade to 11.2.A.0.21.
This way you'll have JB rooted!

I don't know how can you do that just like that? I root ICS when there was latest update 11.0a.7.5 and one day i reflash ftf file because I delete some important system apps,after that my phone was unrooted
Anyway I have rooted JB!

But how to downgrade? Do you have manual? Because every manula I found requires unlocking bootloader and I can´t do that because service menu says NO. I´m just looking for some once-click utility...

No, it don't. We must wait for a solution in xda.

Hi. Search custom ROM for Sony Xperia E C1505. I have phone without unlock bootloader. My mobile operator lock bl. Thanks for help
Currently there are no roms buddy
Don't worry cuz I use stock jellybean
Its far better

Thanks for the reply. Are custom rom with J will fit into E? And the second question is whether to install the official rom that need to have unlocked bootloader or not ?
To install official Rom via pc companion , you will need a locked bootloader otherwise you will brick your device
Official updates can be installed via Emma the official Sony flashtool or androxyde flashtool if u have a locked Or unlocked bootloader
And about roms
I have never tried.. I don't wanna try either
Because I can't raise enough fund for a new device if I brick my phone

For custom rom you need CWM
For CWM you need Custom Kernel
For Custom Kernel you need Unlocked Boatloader.
Your boatloader can not be unlocked so it can't Flash Custom ROM sorry bro. Flash ICS from E dual

If you install ICS, you still won't be able to unlock your bootloader.
Deodexing might possible, but I have no idea how.
