This is the wrong section to ask a question. But simple answer is NO. There's no way to flash a custom rom
without unlocking your bootloader.

Hi all
Anyone know if we need the bootloader unlocked if we already have S-Off? I have flashed a few ROMs already and was wondering if I would need to go unlock my bootloader to gain more customization options. Can we change kernels and overclock with a locked bootloader?

Hi,
You don't need to unlock bootloader via HTCDEV if you already S-OFF.
If you are S Off, just flash firmware from the user friendly firmware thread.
You'll have an ENG Hboot that says Revolutionary instead of Locked.
So, I rooted and gained s-off but haven't unlocked my bootloader through the HTC site. It sounds like I don't need to do this and can do everything I could on my rooted device right?
correct me if im wrong and 10x 4 ur helps

Yes, an ENG Hboot is better than an Unlocked Hboot.
You can do all & more than a Unlocked Hboot can with an ENG Hboot.

If it's official, then your Hboot is locked.

Hi all!
I have a rooted(using framaroot) XPERIA E(C1505) phone, with locked bootloader(bl unlock allowed:no). I've been searching on xda for 2 days, I found a lot of install guides for other types, but i cant find the solution for installing CWM to my phone.
So i'd like to ask is there any method to install CWM with locked bootloader, or it's impossible now?
And if it's impossible, can i install Custom ROM without CWM? How?
Thank you for replying

No sorry mate, your going to have to have an unlocked bootloader or wait for the developers to come out with CWM for locked bootloaders, hardly likely for our phone, Maybe in a year or so since the Xperia E came out this year!

No chance bro. The only thing you can do without cwm, is install some mods (themes, toggles etc), i mean all the stuff you can just copy in system/app.
If you want to install a custom rom you will need to unlock your bootloader and use a kernel with integrated cwm.

Then you didn't install cwm mate. You rooted your phone and unlocked your bootloader, right?
Are you using a custom kernel?
Please describe me the entire procedure you did with the links of the mods you used.

Here is the link for cwm for E http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2276943
Flash it via flashtool with unlocked bootloader.
Thank me if I helped you.
Yes, it is possible!!
Hi men, I think it is possible with flashtool. You can check in xperiafirmware dot com (sorry, they don't let me set any website)

The question was raised because of the locked bootloader...
Does any know a suitable method for Xpheria E ,locked bootloader,to run Custom roms?
What are you guys talking about? Unlocking bootloaders, CWM in general or CWM for locked bootloaders in particular?
I think somebody said CWM for locked bootloader wasn't possible for the E cause there was no available exploit.

Ah! Don't worry buddy :laugh:
And is there any chance that it might be possible in the future?
Because this is the reason why I havent rooted yet...cause you can't lock it again...I mean to lock it without the information that it was already unlocked

Probably not, there is need of an exploit, but this last only for root, if you want also custom recovery you will must unlock bootloader. No chance to bring back bootloader value to initial state and never there will be.
ok thank you ...so I'll probably have to take the risk sooner or later
Hi Guys,
I'm new to this whole Android tech stuff, but recently I decided to try cyanogenmod on my Xperia L device. But the thing is that the Bootloader access is restricted by default, so I can't install it. Can you show me any Custom Roms that don't need the Bootloader to be unlocked? Or if there is a way to unlock the Bootloader, even if unlocking is not allowed on my phone?
Thank you in advance!
There is no way to install custom rom without unlocking bootloader.and yes our device(Xperia L) is unlockbale.
Find hear.

Banrom is the best!
Features:
- you learn how to respect the rules
- you learn to not ask for eta
- you learn to not ask for best rom
- you learn to respect others work
Best is you test the 24h demo version before you flash the fullversion

yes , but you must deodex your rom.
And if you want to install recovery without unlocking try this one out:

Good luck
If your bootloader status is unlock not allowed,you can try the ROMs which are for locked bootloader otherwise you can unlock your bootloader can flash any rom

Install TWRP image to your stock kernel then flash magisk.zip , or you can directly flash a custom kernel with pre-installed magisk instead, there is a tone of good kernels for your device
Oh and BTW wrong forum, your question must be in AT Q&A forum.

How can you unlock bootloader mate? Mine unlock bootloader allowed said NO :crying:
docomo set cannot unlock bootloader.
My docomo have
The docomo version can't have bootloader unlocked, which means you can't flash any custom ROMs or recovery,so you can't flash Magisk or SuperSU and you are not be able to root your device.
