[Q] Xperia Play Bootloader problems

Hi
All
I have got a very quick question to ask and hope somebody can help me. I have got an Xperia play R800i. I used a program called SuperOneClick to root my phone. After using this program I got superuser access so that means my phone is rooted. But how do i unlock the bootloader.
Because according to the sony erricsson website when i type in that code *#*#7378423#*#* into my phone it says that i can not unlock my bootloader. I dont understand if i have rooted my phone my bootloader should be unlock write. Please correct me if i am wrong.
Also do i need an unlocked bootloader to install CyanogenMod 7 on my phone even if i have rooted it.
Many
Thanks
Mohammed

Anybody Please ?

Xperia L brick

Hello recently decided to unlock the bootloader on your Xperia L by Application EZ-Unlock, but ok I see similar output unlock the bootloader yes but I did reboot and since then . not want to come in flashmod or fastboot.HELP FRIENDS!

Why u tried unlock bootloader using this untested method? You have at least two method on forum How-To unlock bootloader:silly:. If really your phone has been bricked, u can only send to service(and pay - Unlock bootloader=lost warranty)

The phone does not lose the warranty and they said on the site that I am entitled to a new

[Q] Can i unlock fastboot?

Hi everyone!
I want to instal custom ROM on my smartphone, but i have one problem with that. In service menu i can see something like that "bootloader unlock allowed no". Can i solve my problem alone in home?
I will be grateful for any help.

If you have "bootloader unlock allowed no", then you can install only stock based ROMs. Unfortunatelly, you won't be able to install CyanogenMod. I have the same problem and i understand that pain :/. You can only root but can't unlock BL, unless you will pay for this (not me, i have no idea how to do that)

Sock ROM
Hi guys,i have this problem too...my xperia E is bootloader status unlock : NO... Please can you give me link to Stock roms? My phone is rooted....Thanks.

There is way to unlock it even if flag is no, but its paid method i did it with my xperia e you will need to find someone with setool2 to do it for you but like i said its not free.

Xperia Z3 D6616 T-Mobile Unlocked Bootloader (Can I install custom roms on it?)

Hello guys,
I bought an Xperia Z3 T-Mobile D6616 32GB with an unlocked bootloader unlike other Z3's from T-Mobile.
When I type *#*#7378423#*#* I see that I have ( Bootloader unlock allowed : Yes )
T-Mobile has limited us to Lollipop 5.0, I was wondering if I can install another rom (Lollipop 5.1 or + ) of another Z3 variant since I got unlocked bootloader.
Is it possible in my case? can you guide me please?
Thank you so much in advance.

I followed this guide to unlock my Bootloader, it worked very well, and when I try *#*#7378423#*#* It says ( Bootloader unlocked : Yes ) Instead of ( Bootloader unlock allowed : Yes ).
Can you please tell me if I can install a Rom of another Z3 variant please?

Have you tried it yet? Also, how exactly did you unlock the bootloader?
