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..

Open dialer and enter *#*#7378423#*#* it should start service app, now press service info then configuration...if it says bootloader unlock allowed:no there is no way you can unlock bootloader (until Sony or some dev gives us woraround to allow it)...
And in any case make TA partition backup (if haven't did it already)...
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
Thank you in advence
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.

Hello guys , I am trying to unlock the bootloader of my sony xperia tipo!
Sony Xperia Tipo does not exist on the list of the devices on Sony's website. . .
My device Rooting Status allowed to unlock bootloader but Sony does not want to help
1-2 years ago the site was different... All Sony devices were available to unlock bootloader with IMEI
Can someone help me please? , I really need to get my IMEI's code in order to unlock the bootloader :silly:
Same Problem
-Bump-
Well after a long fight i finally came to the part "enter unlock code" and then it's over.
I don't understand why Sony cancelled the Bootloader Unlocking-Support for this device.
But im pretty sure the superbrains here at xda can show us a way to unlock the Bootloader anyways (maybe without code, oder did some1 write a code-generator?)
There must be an unofficial way! (at least i hope so)
Best Regards,

[Solved]
LOL, I just solved it by myself:
Go to sonys unlock site, pick a device of your choice (meine worked with sony xperia mini or mini pro, dont know^^) and enter your mail.
They send you a link, you enter the imei and get the code. Now after you prepared your computer retarding to one of the endless tutorials out there
you put your device into Fastboot mode. Now care: Flash-Tool doesnt work, a simple cmd does nonentheless.
So you open your cmd and type:
Fastboot devices
if your devices appears here, you simply enter the copied comman you got from sony (they provide you with a full command line) and hit "enter".
After that, your bootloader is unlocked. You see how desperate i was, but it worked, LOL
Keep us updated
Best Wishes,
Zockermike
PS: Sorry for my bad english
i want to unlock my bootloader and i went on the Sony website for unlocking bootloader on xperia xa devices but i ran into an issue halfway through the instructions. when the website told me to copy the fastboot driver winusb.inf into the sdk-usb_driver then go to device manager and update the s1fastboot driver with the usb_driverr folder an error message came up saying the hash for the file is not present in the specific catalog file. The file is likey corrupt or the victim of tampering
is the fastboot driver not working?
do i have to install another fastboot driver and where?
please can someone help me, i don't know any technical stuff about android phones but i really want to unlock my bootloader so that i can root my device.
