Hello recently decided to unlock the bootloader on your Xperia L by Application EZ-Unlock, but ok I see similar output unlock the bootloader yes but I did reboot and since then . not want to come in flashmod or fastboot.HELP FRIENDS!
Why u tried unlock bootloader using this untested method? You have at least two method on forum How-To unlock bootloader:silly:. If really your phone has been bricked, u can only send to service(and pay - Unlock bootloader=lost warranty)
The phone does not lose the warranty and they said on the site that I am entitled to a new

Hi.
I'm kinda noob in this root thing. I have a Sony J with 11.2.A.0.31 and i want to install CM10 (freexperia project).
Do root and unlock bootloader the same thing? do i need to do both? or just need to follow the sony website instructions http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/instructions?
After that? do i just have to folow these steps http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1997251?
And another question if i ever want to go back and put the phone just like i bought it, can i do it?
Thanks.

First root your phone then unlock bootloader by that solution.
But unlock bootloader will lose DRM keys permanent, Bravia Engine (not sure Xperia™ J have or not)
I recommend you to backup the DRM keys first (search how to backup the keys)
And after that just follow the instruction to install CM10.
Last you can back your phone to normal but you will lose DRM keys.(you can restore if you have backup)

So i rooted my device with this method, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2327472, this also instaled SuperSU.
Now following the instructions on sony website to unlock bootloader it says
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.

Unlock bootloader: no. There is no workaround / tespoint method yet. You can only root and use roms for locked bootloader. Cm10 needs unlocked bootloader.

Thanks, I think I'll stick with stock then. I just want cm10.

Hello, first time in this super forum, i have sony xperia j original with stock rom and last update; cause some lag and various stop and reset i decided to pass to custom rom; i followed the obvious site of sony for first step, unlock the boot loader ( my phone is unblock-able ) so continue with the form that ask me imei name and email...but...
Sony don't want to send me anything.....
Some ideas?
Thxs
Unblock-able?????
Hello,
So you aren't getting any code from Sony? And what do you mean with unblock-able? That the bootloader cannot be unlocked? If that's the case, ofcourse you don't get a code from Sony! Your bootloader cannot be unlocked! How should they send you a code if you can't unlock your bootloader?
That is my interpretation of the word unblock-able, you're using... Maybe it means something else, so correct me if I'm wrong...
Kind regards and goodluck,
MatsPunt

xperia j 's bootloader is unlockable not unblockable before sending imei number u should confirm that imei is exactly the same as in your phone and the problem can be because u r entering a wrong email address thoroughly check the email address u r entering on sony's site and enter only 14 digits of ur imei number (remove from backside if required )
hit thanks button if i've helped u

Trying for a month now to get the code for my arc s an xperia s and they just wont send it. Everything is checked and rechecked on bouth phones but there is is big NO from sony.
YES, the both phones have bootloader unlock status to yes. I guess they simply stoped and forgot to say it to everyone
If you are using Arc or Arc S , unlock Bootloader using EZ-Unlock App, beware since I am not responsible for bricked devices
my Xperia L C2104 device does not show any YES or NO in the bootloader unlock allowed section of service configuration.
It only shows like this:
Bootloader Unlock Allowed
and no yes or no after that.
Also I tried to unlock the bootloader previously via official method but it showed Error: Bootloader cant be unlocked officially.
Help me guys, Can the Bootloader be unlocked in my device and if yes HOW? Any Unofficial method there for unlocking bootloader plz convey that...also m a NOOB so simpler language appreciated :silly:

I think The official method also includes the flashtool method.
or is there any other method using flashtool. plz convey tht method if any.
Also the phone doesnt show YES or NO in the bootloader unlock allowed option.

The phone doesn't need to only show YES or NOT.
It can also be ALLOWED or NOT ALLOWED.... which is practictly the same thing dont you think?
For sony devices bootloader can only be unlocked this way

I unlocked my bootloader couple of months ago with that method but sony site was diffrend back then....they changed it.
I don't think there is another way to unlock bootloader on your sony devices except that one....

I also tried that method a month ago. I will try it again. but the commands given in the website arent accepted. they show error with tht commands. :crying:
I had tons of problems with this, I thought all was lost. I have win 8.1 x64 and assumed it was a driver problem and so did the unsigned driver install in windows safe mode. No dice, flashtool continued to be unable to unlock. What worked for me was re-submitting my code to sony, I got a totally different unlock code and then it worked through flashtool! Maybe give that a try? Fingers crossed!!

hey guys, I've noticed that almost all of you have the bootloader of your Sony Xperia E JB (C1505) unlocked.
Mine says not allowed, I just wanted to ask if you guys that have it unlocked, had the same ''status'' as mine, or if there is any way that I can unlock my bootloader...
I have my phone rooted but with the bootloader unlocked the possibilities are not comparable
I really wanted to change the rom, my kernel (to be able to overclok etc), but im afraid I can't to that
Please give me an answer

To unlock bootloader follow the instructions from Sony Mobile: developer.sonymobile.com/unlockbootloader
I had to send my mobile to Sony service center to change the Rooting Status: Bootloader unlock allowed: No to Yes.
Good luck.

Hi,
-First you can't change it to yes
-Second You can't root your device for the time being cause you need an unlocked bootloader
-Third there's no way to unlock a bootloader unless you have "Unlocked allow yes"
-Fourth be polite next time and say at minimum "Hello" please
Assalam o alaikum!
I've found a software on YouTube to change bootloader status no to yes

I don't think so, we're talking about bootloader so it can f*cked up anytime I think it would be better to don't play with it if we're not sure.
This is just an advice, do what you want to do after that, I'm just giving my thought no need to follow it if you don't want to
What is the logic behind this?
I mean some devices are unlockable and some are not!
What this actually mean?
Well! Can i install custom recovery on locked bootloader?

Nope, you need to unlock the bootloader in order to flash anything.
So it simply means i can't flash any recovery,rom or root my device
That pretty much mean you can't do anything right now sorry bro
It means I've to sale out my device
And buy other brand like LG or HTC
Or exchange it against another unlockable one ?
I don't know, do as you like, sorry for you, just bad luck
http://bootloaderunlock.com/
I've found a video tutorial on YouTube with a link to download software to unlock the bootloader of devices those shows the status "Bootloader unlock allow:No"
Here is the video link
Beware a lot of fake videos are running through the Internet, I warn you, but as I said before do as you like.
If I were you I would not play with bootloader, either I change phone, or I wait for a locked bootloader tuto.

Did you try this? I found this video a while ago, decided not to try it
Why not to try it?
Okay now i decided to not to play with my z5 and change my device
Wise choice, still sorry for you mate
Thanks but this is definitely my last device from sony
This ain't Sony who's responsible, this is your provider.
I'm French I have a Z5 (no prenium no compact)
From Bouygues Télécom, and it ain't locked I'm actually rooted running a custom Rom everything is fine.
This is between you and your luck, you and your provider
