Please read some information before you post. I have unbranded UK Generic Xperia L and I can unlock bootloader.
Some people in Poland who are with Orange cannot but with other operators they can. Before you buy some phone make a research.

Why ? Because you can't have a stupid CWM on LB... You can install C'n'T on locked bootloader.
C'mon guys, sell your xl's and blame Sony for something he didn't do. Great idea.

Yeah locking the bootloader would work, you need to return 100% to stock though, so factory software it was shipped with, I don't know whether you still have that or if you can grab it from the official sony site, there is probably a copy of it in the forums

Running PC Companion with an unlocked bootloader is lethal. You could wait it out like PhxkinMassacre said,or skip the reverting to stock,but the bootloader is a must lock.

Ya... Is essentially the same steps as I found. I have manage to unlock. Will try to flash recovery and root later. Wish me luck... :fingers-crossed:
What I have understood so far, the steps are affecting the recovery and install su into the /system partition (no wipe). It does not affect the kernel nor Android itself. So, technically, it should be generic for all build.

If it says 'unlock not allowed" you simply cannot unlock it. And at the moment you can't install custom roms or kernels, but no need to worry about that for now. I mean you just wanna flash an ftf here? so yeah go ahead.

I used htcdev to unlock the bootloader and then flashed SuperSu but i got a buggy root looks like.

I have permanent root. You have to unlock bootloader for that and then flash SuperSu as i mentioned earlier.
There is no method without unlocking bootloader. I tried a lot, none of the other exploits worked,, unless you want to spend

Yeah bro... Actually i had unlocked ? my bootloader and backed up DRM keys (require root) but after 2 months my power button was not working properly....
What i did..
Restore DRM & relocked bootloader and flash the stock rom.... And then send it to service center and they also fix the issue for free!!
So is there any way to gain the warranty back like in samsung we can clear flash counters by "triangle away" app... And here in sony with DRM method??

Hmm... I wonder. Is it okay to pick up a single sim version? Looks like everyone has dual sim here and I'm a little worried when ROMs do get ported, it might not work on the single sim version. Would it work anyway? Or do I really have to go for the dual sim?
