I tried unlocking bootloader and it went into bootloop after that, I flashed stock rom and now the bootloader is not unlocked still.
will it go again in bootloop after unlocking bootloader?
HELP!
I followed every instruction, enabled usb debugging, backed up TA, then used flashtool to unlock the bootloader (after entering the unlock code flashtool showed OKAY, then the device rebooted). now I'm stuck in the bootloop. when I try to connect the device with flashtool to flash the stock ftf, it says usb debugging is turned off! how can I flash the device now? Is there any way I can turn on usb debugging again?

Just turn off your phone...When flashtool's ready to flash, connect your phone with down button pressed..
Flashtool's never said usb debugging on/off when the device is off..

I Have "Bootloader unlock: not allowed", but right now it's sim-locked. I can get the company to get it sim-unlocked.

Relock doubt
I have unlocked my bootloader and want to relock it but have not yet made any TA backup....so can i make a TA backup of another xperia-L device and flash that in my Xperia-L?
I, recently tried to unlock my bootloader via flash tool, but for some reason, my rooting status (my bootloader) is unknown (before was unlockable. I relocked and unlocked it again but still no luck. Then I flashed the firmware with flashtool.. but my bootloader's status is still unknown. I think the error is due to some file named x10flasher in the flash tool. What i must to do for have back bootloader unlockable?
Please someone Help me

[tipo]Rooting status changed to "No" from "Yes". Can't enter fastboot mode now
This xperia tipo st21i single sim had rooting status: "Bootloader Unlock: Yes" but it changed to "Bootloader unlock allowed : No" may be after flashing 11.0.A.4.22_generic or after a failed root exploit by flashtool or some other reason. I cant enter fastboot mode now. I want to install and test some custom roms on this device. Help please...
[ images attached. Flashtool log (the only log that i have) during bootloader unlocking is also attached.]
THE COMPLETE STORY:
The device was running 11.0.A.4.27_Indian firware. It is detecting sim cards of Reliance and aircel carriers but not of airtel and vodafone carriers. So i decided to flash modems from 11.0.A.4.22_generic.ftf. I successfully unlocked the bootloader yesterday with flashtool. I was able to enter fastboot mode. I tried flashing modem with "fastboot flash modem modem_fs1.sin" and i got "Error: Partition modem not found (remote error)". I tried rooting it using flashtool but root exploit failed. Then i successfully flashed entire 11.0.A.4.22_generic.ftf via flashtool in flashmode. I tried installing cwm using these instructions but then it failed at step3 "error su not found". I had downloaded boot.img which had twrp recovery. But then, i realised the device is not entering fastboot mode with any method. Then I checked rooting status and surprisingly it has now changed to "Bootloader unlock allowed: No". I came to know that unlockable devices cannot enter fastboot mode after searching forums. Flashtool still recognises it as unlocked.. How do i access fastboot mode again? How do i revert the rooting status back to " Bootloader unlock:Yes". My ultimate aim is to install a custom recovery and flash custom roms.
Whenever I try unlock bootloader bug out FAILED (remote: Command did not allowed).
I have Bootloader unlock allowed.
I tried in CMD - Fastboot and Flashtoo and out this same problem.
When I tried twice unlock bootloader I get OKAY and I try turn on my phone, I walk in bootloop.
Where is problem?
Hi! So actually you did unlocked your bootloader (as i understand), and when you turn on your device after the unlock you go into bootloop. This is something normal. You need to flash the stock .ftf with flashtool (i recommend you to use old versions like 0.9.11.0). Have a look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-l/help/bootloop-unlocking-bootloader-t2675892 ! Good luck!
What firmware version did you flashed. I have flashed firmware for c2104 and i got this bootloop. Make sure you flash the propper firmware verison for your device.

When I tried it, in Service Menu I have "Rooting status: Unkown".
I have bad code in Bootloader unlock Wizard and I can't change it, field is inactive.
I have firmware C2104, I don't have any branding.
I have installed Flashtool v9.23.1. I tried to unlock my phone (Sony Xperia E3 D2202) bootloader but i get an error saying there are no drivers. I tried to install them from the flashtool folders but there are multiple drivers.
I think the Common Drivers JDM-Platform is the correct one. But when I try to Install it it shows failed to install. How can i unlock my bootloader without using the Android SDK method. Pls Help!!
