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

Hey guys, this question is been asked before also. http://forum.xda-developers.com/sony-xperia-c/general/unlock-bootloader-sony-xperia-c-t2852284
But, today i checked Official website of Sony for Unlocking Bootloader >> http://developer.sonymobile.com/unlockbootloader/ and found that the model is named into the applicable list of devices. But Configuration Screen says ' Bootloader unlock is not allowed' . and i have read here >>> http://www.informationlord.com/bootloader-unlock-xperia-c-possible-leaked-source-sony/ , that Sony will allow unlocking of bootloader of Xperia C in the next version, but the problem is that Sony will not update the Xperia C beyond Android 4.2 JB ,
now what to do?? shall i go with the unlocking procedure as the model is in that list of devices on the Sony website or keep believing that i wont get any update???
or is there any other secure way of unlocking the bootloader???
plz let me know..
Hi guys, my new Z3 has just arrived today and I am looking to remove the bloat. I went to the Sony site to unlock my bootloader but aparently it cannot be unlocked (using service menu to check). I am new to Sony products, does this mean I will never be able to unlock my bootloader? Is this caused by a hardware difference?
Thanks

Plenty about this on the forums already.
If service menu says "bootloader unlock allowed: no"
You can't do anything.

Ive found on few sites that my Sony Xperia M2 D2303 with Kitkat should be 18.3.C.0.37 but mine software version is 18.3.1.C.0.21.
Why is it like this? Is there something wrong with my device, is it fully updated to last software version or not?
Also ive checked bootloader unlock status and it says Not allowed.
In the official Sony site ive seen a text that says: "Important note! In order to unlock your Xperia™ M2 you need to be on software version 18.3.C.0.37." - which is different then mine.
I also checked for any updates but there is nonne showing in my sony app.
How can i solve this?
Thanks in advance.

Different terms, different topics.
Let's see, .21 build version number means 4.4.4 KitKat (most updated version of KitKat).
If the unlock allowed device says No, it means you have the SIM Locked, so, you need to contact your carrier provider in order to unlock it and change the status to "yes", so, you could unlock your bootloader without any troubles in the process
Official Sony says you need to be in 4.4.2 or higher build number version, it's not stated you need to be in .37 build number.
Note: 4.4.2 (is precisely .37 build number, but, still .21 or higher works fine with the unlocking).
Regards!
i know its a bit turn off the topic, but while im still here let me ask - Does anyone know is Lolipop gonna come out for M2 or not?
There have been many different statements about this so id like to know once for all, is it or not?

No. It ain't confirmed yet. In some point might show up for our device. But right now there's no confirmation. Just OmniROM, CyanogenMod 12 and FXP AOSP.
If your bootloader unlock allowed says no. Then there is nothing you can do to unlock it. Not even network unlocking your phone will change that. To get bootloader unlock allowed yes buy sim free unlocked device. Most carriers lock down bootloaders hope this answers your questions

But ive hear many times people are "decoding" their phones in order to get SIM free device, why cant i do it?
And is there a way to root my device without unlocking bootloader?
To root you need to search on here plenty of easy to follow tutorials on how to root for locked and unlocked bootloaders.

Under what assumptions you say that? Topics before some guy said that he unlocked its device changing the status of its SIMLock with some code to unlock it. The carrier locks down your phone via SIM, but it doesn't mean you can't unlock it forever. If you "free" it, the problem must be solved. The guy I'm talkin' about, unlock two devices using the same method I'm sayin' here, and the two of them went fine. So, just try. The carrier shouldn't show any troubles in order to disable the SIMLock, it's your right, in fact.
Hello Community,
I hope you are well.
Would you please help me unlock the bootloader for an xperia tipo st21i
1st I tried the sonymobile method but this device is not supported.
2nd I tired the [se bootloader_unlocking_relocking_1.6] ,but I can't get the unlocking number after I write the IEMI 14 number , an error messege pops up => see attached pic
-The phone is GENERIC
-rooting status : Bootloader unlock allowed: yes
-The IMEI : 354807055894752
I am ready to provide any other details

You need to check if can unlock it. Dial *#*#7378423#*#*, go to Service Menu, Service info, Configuration, if you Rooting Status says: Yes, you can unlock bootloader. Go to sony mobile unlock page and follow instructions.
Good Luck.

I unlocked my XJ almost year ago with official method, I'll check what's changed.
Xperia M2 D2303 on K.K. 4.4.4
Edit:
Try with Flashtool.
You just connect your phone in flashmode (volume down + connect usb) press BLU button, then unlock.
Good Luck.

I tried this method, it didn't work :/ because I always have to put the unlock key in Flashtool :/
The unlcock key can only be provided by sonymobile , and sonymobile is not supporting this model anymore , which means i have to look for another way.
Thank you.
um ni

Actually, I just had the same problem 2 days ago - it turns out it doesn't matter which device you choose from the drop down list. Just choose a random one, then enter your email, and then follow the procedure after that. I tried that and it didn't work for me. If anyone tries and succeeds using this, head over here and tell me what I'm doing wrong.
I guess sony pulled out Tipo from its supported devices, I unlocked mine through developer world website a year ago and successfull.
Hi guys, my computer can't find my Xperia Tipo when is in fastboot mode. any ideas?
I have alla the drivers installed
Just to clarify: the Tipo is not shown as a separate supported device, instead you can get the unlock code through the Aino page.
