Hey,
I have a problem with unlock the bootloader. I saw that there are a lot of problem, but I didn't find any good idea.
I have Sony Xperia J(4.2.1) with kernel 11.2.A.0.21. I tried the official steps, but I have a little bit problem with the fastboot mod I think. The official website write that the fastboot button is the Volume up button, but when I tried it the command window has frozed while it wrote me that: << waiting for device >> like this: http://kepkezelo.com/images/g4yxuosyez5vrgq07nky.jpg
Then I tried to unlock the bootloader with the flashtool but it's frozed too like this: http://kepkezelo.com/images/el7v56a56qw7dpzwwvfs.jpg
I tried it with usb debugging on and tired too when it was off. I tired to change the firmware to ST26i_11.0.A.7.5_CE and of course it was bad too. Somebody could help me please?
Regards,
Mark Puskas

Can you please follow the first two steps from the official Sony page please?
First, you should confirm that it is possible to unlock the boot loader of your device by checking the service menu. In your device, open the dialler and enter *#*#7378423#*#* to access the service menu. If you have a tablet, click here to learn how access the service menu.
In your device, tap Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status. If Bootloader unlock allowed says Yes, then you can continue with the next step. If it says No, or if the status is missing, your device cannot be unlocked.

Download the firmware file from here: http://d-h.st/PsQ
Download flashtool from here: http://androxyde.github.io/ (DON'T change the install path)
1) Install flashtool and install the drivers from the path C:\Flashtool\drivers
2) Download the firmware file and move it to the path C:\Flashtool\firmwares
3) Close any processes related to PC Companion whilst in Task Manager.
4) Disconnect your phone from the computer.
5) Click the lightning bolt, select your firmware from the new window. DON'T change any of the settings, click OK.
6) Wait for the file to finish preparing. Flashtool will then ask you to connect your device in flashmode.
7a) Take your battery out of your phone.
7b) Connect the large end of your USB cable to your computer
7c) Connect the small end of the USB cable to your phone while holding volume down (-).
7d) Put your battery back in whilst still holding volume down (-) (a green LED should come up).
8) Wait for flashtool to finish flashing your phone.
9) Enjoy android 4.0.4

Hi bro, i just wanna help those people who wanna unlock their phone bootloader. Why you need to unlock your phone bootloader? To install some custom rom like FreeXperia's CyanogenMod 10, or Custom Kernel. First, all you need is :
1. Rooted phone. See my guide here
2. Have the driver, you can install PdaNet from my guide or Sony Companion
3. Install the flashtool from Androxyde github
YOUR PHONE WARRANTY NOW VOID!
THIS PROCEDURE DOES A FACTORY RESET ON YOUR PHONE. YOUR DATA, MESSAGES, CONTACTS, OR ANY APPLICATIONS WILL BE DELETED, AND IT WILL INSTALL A STOCK ROM LIKE THE FIRST DAY YOU BOUGHT YOUR PHONE. PLEASE MAKE A BACKUP FIRST IN CWM, I DONT OWN ANY BLAME
Make sure your phone is allowed to be unlocked. Here is the guide :
Dial *#*#7378423#*#*, then go to Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status. If the Bootloader Unlock Allowed is yes, you can continue If not, please dont ask me. If you want to unlock your phone, go to your service center
THE UNLOCKING STEPS IS :
1. Dial *#06# and takes a note of your IMEI on notepad or anything. This is needed for our next step
2. After install Flashtool, go to Drivers folder and click on Install-Drivers.exe or something like that. In the steps, you need to install your Xperia XXX (XXX is your phone model), Flashboot driver, and flashmode driver. [If your phone is Miro, select the Tipo driver]
[IF YOU ARE ON WIN7 / WIN8, when you're on booting your pc, push the F8 button, and select Disable Digital Signature]
3. Go to Unlock Bootloader website, and enter your phone IMEI here.
If you got a warning like this, then delete your last IMEI character

Hi, sorry for the late reply. You must have already installed CWM/TWRP (choose one). And how to enter CWM/TWRP? Just restart your phone, when the Sony logo is appearing, try to tap the volume down button repeatedly and fast. If you didnt understand, please search it on this forum

When you first boot your pc, suddenly press the F8 button, or you can go to Charm menu -> Settings -> Change PC Settings -> go to General -> Scroll down 'till you find Advanced Startup. Then select the one who have "Disable Digital Signature Check of Driver" or something
Nice, but I think it should be in the development forum, and also add a link to a CWM install tutorial.
i think you need to post more info about this
like Bootloder BackUp / ReLock / is that possible / how to do it
Thank You
Why is rooted phone required???

If fastboot is working, try flashing the kernel again.
Not Connected in Fastboot
Any warranty left, or...?
Have you tried to use an external charger?
I'll take him to guarantee ...
Yes .
Why does not connect in fastboot or flashmode? It's hardware problem?
Since he has installed CM 10 i guess he has lost his gurantee.
I know ... but if it does not start at all as they see what ROM I have installed?
They can see that you have an unlocked bootloader(I guess you have) and i think they can see that you have a different kernel and that you are rooted.Correct me if i am wrong
Bootloaderul is unlock ... but how they see if I root the phone does not start?
if he change the components to install software again?

different usb port.
Sony pc companion.
emma.

download adb drivers installer and install adb drivers.
if none of the above work check if srsroot or any similar software is able to recognize your phone.

have you tried installing adb drivers through adb driver installer ?
http://adbdriver.com/downloads/
what about srsroot/kingo root ?
are they recognizing your phone.
EDIT : is phone charging when you connect to charger/pc ¿
SRSROOT not recognizing !
Have you installed the adbdrivers?
Yes ... device is dead ??
IS DEAD ??? yes or no ???
If you did the vold.fstab swap trick and then wiped internal data the phone is hard-bricked. Did you do this?
If the phone is bricked Sony cannot tell the bootloader is unlocked, rooted or not on the official rom and will send you a new one if under warranty.
Hi guys.
I need your help very urgently.
Update my phone to android 4.4.4 and I only realized until that moment that CM11 has no radio support on many devices.
I wanted to install the stock firmware but unfortunately 15.3.A.1.14 open my bootloader after I failed to make the connect via FlashBoot.
That is, if I try to connect to fastboot I have no problems doing that and that's that mean flashing kernels, but if I connect the phone to flash mode the LED does not light,
Although flashtools if recognized as a device connected in this way, if I try to flash the firmware via everything starts normally but before end I throw an error.
Anyone have an idea that I can do, and be able to tell me why this is happening?
I appreciate your help, and I hope you can understand my English is lousy.

Unfortunately the failure seems to be on the phone and tried it on another pc and the problem persists.
When I connect it with the volume down button, the LED lights green and then red for less than half a second, the pc makes the sound of announcing that something was connected but the phone does not turn on but the led.
The problem is that I have several tested tft and the result is the same, even though flashtool flash mode recognizes something is not right and I assume that's why flash it throws error.
I had the idea to flash in fastboot mode tft but I'm afraid to leave me a hardbrick,:crying:

I don't think that the red led keeps glowing when you connect on flash mode. It just flashes green and red once.
Also did you an updated flashtool on the other pc?
if not then try once with another cable। and flashtool.

First of all, your english is terrible mate.
As far as I know you can't use fastboot to flash a firmware. I believe it's only for flashing kernels.
Also, make sure you have the required drivers installed. You can download latest drivers from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2635830
Along with that make sure you use an updated flashtool.
Head over to the general threadand you will find it
Hope it helps
Hit thanks if it does.
hei man, same **** hapens to me, try to use a old version of flashtool, 0.9.11.0 works for me
Hello everyone!
At the beggining I really would like to give my regards to:
- @mbc07
- @costel90
- @vinay
and other people from topic http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-e3/help/root-locked-bootloader-t3038518 for any help and / or ideas;
- @AndroPlus and japanese developer, キューブキューブ @cubeundcube for posting rootkitXperia ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2559009 )
Great job people - I really appreciate your work for entire community.
Remember - don't bother me, if you do anything wrong and brick your device - you are doing this at your own responsibility.
/ -- /
Let's begin rooting our Xperia E3 D2203! I will show you my way to root:
0. Make backup and load up the battery (at least 60%), download and install flashtool ( http://www.flashtool.net/downloads.php ), download and install Sony PC Companion (to provide drivers)
1. Obtain your firmware's FTF file (easiest way is to use XperiFirm)
and this firmware: http://uploaded.net/file/f1wll17r (it's Xperia M2 JellyBean kernel) ,
and copy them to: %userprofile%\.flashtool\firmwares ( for WinXP %userprofile% leads to c:\documents and settings\username; in Win Vista and laters: to C:\Users\username )
2. Turn off the phone
3. Connect it to USB cable with Vol- tapped. Make sure that all drivers have been installed successfully and disconnect USB (this is one-time step, if you have ever flashed your phone you probably don't need to do this again)
4. Run flashtool, click thunder icon, select flashmode, choose 18.5.C.0.19 firmware and click Flash

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
5. Connect USB with Vol- tapped when asked by flashtool
6. Wait until flashtool ends flashing (you will see messsages like this:
INFO- Ending flash session
INFO- Flashing finished.
INFO- Please unplug and start your phone)
then disconnect phone from usb, power on and wait to boot
7. Go to menu > settings
8. Go to about phone, tap few times on 'compilation number' to enable programmer settings. Go there, enable mock location (may be not nessesary) and USB Debugging
9.Go to security settings, turn ON unknown sources and turn OFF verify apps
10. Plug in USB to ensure that all drivers are installed properly (especially Sony ADB Interface driver)
11. Download giefroot_debug_D2203_modded.zip file ( https://mega.co.nz/#!sscXQKwB!qOIv2a70SH6UAM8vhySQIeEcYXrkkXXfh_X98q5rdDk ) unzip it and run install.bat
12. IMPORTANT STEP - make sure you allowed permanently to debug from your PC, when window appears
13. giefroot will inform you, that rooting has failed - that's OK - it was only to ensure, that your pc is allowed to debug
14. Now we have our phone prepared. Turn it off.
15. In flashtool click thunder icon, select flashmode
16. Select Kernel from Jelly Bean firmware
17. Connect to USB with vol- tapped and wait for flashtool to finish, disconnect USB
18. Power on your phone - you will see Xperia logo for a 1 seconds or 2, but it disappears and you will see only black display - that's ok - it's expected behavior.
19. Wait about 30 seconds and connect USB - make sure that Windows installs driver for ADB Interface Driver (you can ignore MTP driver prompts)
20. Download rootkitXperia ( https://mega.co.nz/#!Mt1zkAyQ!Z2Wg9xQyNCbPt6ksS-Dw76-ifSb_lGvQbFK7zP0yJ9E ), unzip rootkitXperia_20140719.zip and run install.bat
21. Wait for commands: done root command, wait 10 seconds...
22. When you see rebooting message, disconnect from usb, take out back cover, and push off button with needle. After that turn on the phone,at black screen wait 30 seconds and, after that, plug in USB
23. when rootkitXperia ends, you will see message all finished - turn phone off again with button under the back cover (as in step 22)
24. Now we need to restore D2203 kernel
25. Go to flashtool, thunder icon, flashmode, choose firmware from point 4, but BE CAREFUL! - select all things as this is showed on screenshot below: tick OFF wipe cache, data, tick ON exclude bootbundle, partition, ta, fota, baseband, system, elabel - you should see only two files: kernel.sin and loader.sin in content section
26. Now click flash, connect phone to usb with vol-, wait until flashtool finishes, disconnect usb and turn on the phone
27. When phone boots, connect again usb, go to giefroot_debug_D2203_modded.zip content again and run install2.bat
28. When script ends, update su binary with superSu and reboot You have now root access and RW permissions to / and /system
Yop,
Thank you ! ♥ I will try this.
Unfortunately, after doing every step as it is written, after flashing Xperia M2 kernel, phone just won't boot. Sony logo dissapears after 2 seconds and screen is black for long time and it won't boot at all.
I have D2203 with locked bootloader and not allowed to unlock..

It may be possible - but you need to risk and try. Just in points: 4 and 25 use your D2212's FTF instead of D2203.

Thanks so much for this! When I found out I couldn't unlock my boot loader I thought I was screwed. Worked perfectly, thanks again.
Thank you SO much for this! Followed the solution to the letter and I have successfully rooted my 'Bootloader Locked Vodafone UK D2203'. It works a charm.
Hello folks, please help me ASAP, as I have no other devices in me and both my private and work related things are associated with my phone so...
I was doing this and since im noob I was going step by step so i dont mess something and yet that happened. you can read from there what I was doing and what happened.
Basically I tried to flash firmware by executing line by line of commands and now my phone is dark (nothing can be done with physically clicking the buttons). Its connected with the PC so sometimes i can hear that USB sounds you know.. Anyway, can you please assist me how to proceed and go back to normal ?
Open device manager and look for Qualcomm
if you see that your Device is in EDL Mode.
Try this tool

Nope, nothing with qualcomm in my device manager.
And after running "bank-flash" my device now rebooted to fastboot.

You need to reboot to fastboot mode, unplug USB, and hold the volume button and power, till you see the fastboot screen.

Okay that did the work now my phone is off - black after i pressed the buttons...
Now which one should i download? Should i use the Android 10 one or the 9 one you mentoined previously (if its the same). btw before i do anything i had android 9 running with the november patch
I tried that Android 10 and this is what i did.
Extracted Mediatek and the firmware in same folder, did the cmd thing from the xml through the spanish web site, ran the bat file and nothing happened.
Now ill be trying with the android 9 version
Okay guys im not able to successfully run the flashfile.bat
I tried with the (Optional) Automatic BAT file made by Eufracio López and it did the trick!!! I was able to flash Android 10!
