Hi all, I have a Sony Xperia J ST26i rooted by MasterRoot, with a locked bootloader. Is there any way that I can install Custom Roms using a particular method without unlocking it? Thanks!
Yes, search Alien Rom you have instructions ther how to install. Basically any stock based Rom can be installed on locked boatloader.
Good Luck.

Not sure if it will work for Sola, but you may want to check out the test point metod to unlock the bootloader. You won't lose DRM. you can also relockmthe B any time you want.
fter 2 days of long hours of failure attempts, im so frustrated now. xda users say its not safe to unlock bootloader if phone's manufacturing date is over 11W29+, which will results in hard brick. my sola has date of 12W38, but i see many guide in unlocking sola's bootloader. so what the heck is all this bout? btw how to tell whether bootloader has been unlock? i used flashtool n i my sola reboot from fastboot. it seems ok(can be use) but i dono whether the bootloader is unlock......im so damn confused right now. this drives me so crazy........

Are you still looking for an answer about how to tell if bootloader is locked or unlocked?
just try to update with pc companion or update service , if it says modified software then the bootloader is unlocked , if it still continues ( cancel it ) then it means its locked.. I've not tried it but read it here.
I just purchased an Xperia J
I decided to that flashing CM10 would be a better idea, However when looking at unlocking the bootloader it says
Bootloader unlock allowed no
Now what do I do?!

hi all,
i have xperia jb(rooted) and i want a good custom rom for my device,but i have not unlocked my bootloader yet:/ i have tried many times to do so,but failed.Any one click software for unlocking bootloader?Any help will be appreciated.
thanks
Looked around a bit and found out its virtually impossible to unlock the boot loader if you are Carrier Locked so now my question is can someone help me installing CWM on Xperia J Locked bootloader (ICS 4.04 / Firmeware 11.0.A.7.5). This is because whilst browsing the web I also found its possible to flash ROMs that are based on stock ROMs which is the only reason I rooted in the first place!
Thanks in Advance,

Hmm, i think you can't because your bootloader is locked. :silly:
so how am i meant to flash a rom? My phones well slow
Found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-j-e/development/tipo-clockworkmod-t2003069/ Would it work or what?
And if so how do I make sure a ROM is compatible with this CWM
Can someone post the download link for the xperia j Znxt Rom ive looked through the first few pages but cant find it?

I recommend you to flash AlienRom. Its compatible with locked bootloader. Just follow the instruction how to install it. Also the rom doesnt have custom kernel inside, so just flash the stock kernel after you install the rom.

Already done
For a class project I decided to load a custom ROM on my Sony Xperia J ST26a. I have bought it from Bell and the way my contract and phone is set up when I enter *#*#7378423#*#* --> Service Info --> Configuration --> Rooting Status : bootloader unlock allowed: No
Is there an easy way around this?
I'm not doing a kernel just a simple stock ROM like XperiaPremiuM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-j-e/development/cm10-ultimate-xperia-premium-v3-xperia-t2159103)
I am running on 11.2A.0.33 firmware and android version 4.1.2
Everything I have previously looked at and tried hasn't worked such as the DooMLoRD Easy Rooting Toolkit.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1321582 (I do realize this has more than likely been patched)
Please help and fast. Project is due in 2 weeks
(Sorry abut my n00bness is this looks bad or isn't visually appealing)
If you asking how to root, last time i rooted J it was with Flashtool, but don't remember which one of root methods i use.
Good Luck.
