Try to flash another firmware. You dont need to root or unlock bootloader.
Find Xperia Flashtool on Google and install it, you should get with Flashtool program called XperiFirm.
You can find every firmware for Sony phones
I hope that was helpful, you can click "Thanks" button

Tried, but they couldn't calculate the code for me. Is there any other way?
Hi,
Has anyone managed to unlock an Xperia Z3 401SO sim locked on the Japanese carrier Softbank?
I found a site in Japanese where the guy says that he managed to unlock his phone. Since my Japanese is not good, I contacted the guy in English but have not received any answer yet.
I bought a sim unlock code for the Unlocking Company but the 2 codes they provided me did not work and they reimbursed my purchase. The surprising thing is the type of lock on the phone. As shown in the image attached, the phone is Network Subset locked and the number of unlocking attempts is unlimited. Has anyone seen this on other phones?
I have contacted other unlock code providers and will update this thread when I receive any reply.
Unlocked!
I managed to unlock the phone. I re-contacted the Unlocking Company asking them to send me the NSCK code which they did even if they had already refunded my purchase. The Xperia Z3 from Softbank in Japan can be unlocked with the NSCK code.
If you put a non-Softbank sim card on the phone, you will not get the screen to input the unlock code. In order to unlock it, I flashed a Docomo firmware (it also works with the international firmware) with flashtool. After the flash, you can reach the sim-unlock screen to input your code. I guess Softbank must have removed some files from its firmware to make the sim-unlocking harder.
Assist
Where did you get the firmware to flash the phone with?
Xperia Z3 401SO
Pls. kindly share what firmware you use , thanx in Advance.
Your z3 version is 32gb or 16gb?
32 Gig
I suppose he used SO-01G_23.0.B.1.38_docomo.ftf because Docomo Xperia Z3 doesn't have any other firmware avaiable, can someone try in a Sony Xperia Z3 T-mobile to see if this ftf works on it just flashing system?

Can you give answer to just 2 questions :
1. Which unlocking company you used ? Would be great help if you can give the website.
2. Which firmware did you used to flash it ? Would be great help if you can give a link to download the same.
Thanks in advance.
unlocking 401SO Sony Xperia Z3
Hello,
though I do not have a T-mobile Xperia Z3. I have the softbank 401SO build. 304... For those of you that have updated to. 334. You will have flash back to. 304... 344 has not been uploaded. I don't have the means either or I would. Here is the .Ftf build link
ttps://ftf.xn--l8je9byecb9a3syb.xn--q9jyb4c

To get unlock codes, I used .sim-unlock make sure you GET the NSCK that is the only code that will unlock the X subset network (unlimited)... here is a link that has a small guide if you follow it you will find it in Japanese so you'll need to translate it.. But it works... ziko8jp.info/archives/2725
If you have any questions... I will answer them.. Good luck.
I will be posting a step by step guide on my channel... When I get it done I will update my post... Free your phone. Lol

I have a Sony Xperia J locked to a network.
First, what can I do to remove the "lock"? If I flash a stock FW (normal version instead of the network company version)? Or can I remove without flashing a fw?
Sorry if this question is somehere answered but I couldn't find nothing "safe" enough for me to risk do something on the phone.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers
You can't unlock it with flashing, you need unlock code to unlock it, or go to some local mobile shops that can unlock phones. There's no free way.
Good Luck.
Xperia M2 D2303 on K.K. 4.4.4
I'm going to risk with this question: is there a way (some guide in xda) to find an unlock code?
Nope. Not XDA, not on net. Sorry. I got mine unlocked when my contract ended.

I read the thread and i understand there is no way to unlock the Sony Xperia J by the root or something else ?
One way is buy the code ? in my coutry when the contract will end the operator dont unlock the phone :/
Maybe someone can give me the code if i give him a IMEI ?
I will be glad

Can I unlock my Sony XPERIA Z1 Sim locked through flashing a new ROM? If so, Where can I download one? Is it safe? If The flashing fails, can I reflash in order for it to work again? thanks
Hi,
Thank you for using XDA Assist.
Flashing a rom has never unlocked the sim card.
thanks. so, it means I really need to pay for unlock code.

AFAIK there are hidden menus for specific devices. The easiest way is to pay of course.
Hello to everyone..
Sony mobile flasher simlock option killed my sony xperia Z5 sim service.... bad mistake by me
Basically i bought a second hand sony xperia Z5 locked to O2 UK- first i wanted to upgrade the firmware and i have installed sony mobile flasher 0.9.23.2 and all the drivers to my laptop and downloaded the latest firmware everything was on right way to complete the firmware upgrade but before i proceed i saw the simlock option and i choosed it in order to remove the o2 network lock from the phone, i thought i could get 2 things done if i was lucky but i did not think choosing this option would of kill the phones network function. unfortunately after completing the flash i cannot use the device as a phone as it says no sim service, i can see the imei number and use other things on the phone like wifi etc... but cannot make calls.
After making some google search unfortunately i wasnt able to find any solution for this issue. Is there anyone on this forum have had this problem or can anyone advice me what to do please?
thanks.

Hi, have you tried to unlock the bootloader and reflash stock firmware using the flashtool from flashtool.net and xperifirm?
Or you could follow this step by step and see if that helps. https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z5/general/ftf-e66xx-patched-kernels-google-drive-t3688365
