[FAIL]Lets try UNLOCK BOOTLOADER! - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

I know this is completely useless since bootloader has been bypassed, but I don't want hidden things on my phone!
If you don't either, then help me!
So, I think that it's a simple button combination to fastboot and unlock bootloader.
I tried holding the this (the order matters) : BACK + POWER
and the led blinked green once. I assume that this is an indication to continue and press something else to unlock.
I don't know, that's why I ask for help.
Please try combinations and report them here.
Report EXAMPLE
VOLUME DOWN + POWER = FAIL (nothing happend, just boot)

i think back+power is flash mode without USB cable but im not sure so tell me if you manage to make it do something cool like use the LED to play stuff on the SD mode #9now that would be cool)

and i dont think you can unlock the bootloader pressing buttons.

i was searching for the x10 bootloader crack method and ive found some interesting things... like the kernel in the big x10 is the same as x10 mini pro (2.6.29 [email protected] #1)

we should look at the x10 unlocking method (cpu exploit) becuz x10 and x10 mini pro are similar in some specs like ther kernel.

I just lawl when I come here, I thought i will be seeing some hard hex codes, and complex kernel sources .
Btw, that wont work, and also X10 it's SO different to mimmi on everything (kernels are not the same, processor, screen, bla)

They have the same name, that don't means that they're the same.

Before anyone mentions it.
No we cannot get fastboot the way you are thinking.
No we cannot unlock bootloader with 'flash mode'.

yes. but they can have similarities.
what im trying to say is if they are similar we *meybe* can do something based on the bootloader cracking metod of the x10.

Yup they're simillar only exception being the hardware, they unlocked it using a security encryption bug, the right direction would be in looking for same bug in msm7k series!

If it doesnt work (no offence D4, i just dont know what programming languages you know) then we probably have no hope as we dont have a Dev team, only D4 now. And of coure, NobodyAtAll from mini.

It's funny how SE has instructions on their website on just how to do this:

Guess it doesn't work with the Mini Pro?
EDIT: Yep, doesn't, sorry for the useless post.

It works only on:
* Sony Ericsson Xperia TM PLAY
* Sony Ericsson Xperia TM arc
* Sony Ericsson Xperia TM pro
* Sony Ericsson Xperia TM neo
as the sidebar says ;-)
By the way unlocking a bootloader isn't so relevant (at least for me), i'm wondering if we could just load a custom kernel over the SE's one using kexec-tools... in the next weeks i'll start reading something more about it, thus if we load a custom kernel (with proper hardware configuration, hoping SE doesn't patch the kernel too much) i guess we could get out from 2.1 constraint that SE forces us into.
It's only a guess, but i think it's a worth trying ;-D

[Q] Bootloader question

if they can do THIS
Can the method used by implemened on the x10?
0_0 wow, i hope so !!. Good find Pilot.
But surely by pass is better like we have now like incase something goes wrong you can simply flashback to stock and your warranty is still there. Bypass is more than adequate for me. Is there any extra benefit to be gained from fully unlocked bootloader as opposed to the current bypass?
Nice find though ;-)
Although I guess flashing back to a stock rom with flashtool could work incase something broke. But say if something broke would flashtool still be able to read the device as x10?
Sent from my X10x using XDA Premium App
The thing is we don't have fastboot on X10, so I doubt this method could be applicable!
Someone should let our devs know though, just in case!

Exactly. I'm thinking, We need a way to enable fast boot (It should be present to my understanding)
This is really turning out good. xperia84 was really right about this. If Motorolla and HTC unlock bootloaders for Atrix and Desire then why not SE for x10?
just think of it guys, It's pure business and competition
Actually, our devs shouldn't do anything for the bootloader for now. Who knows our x10 gets unlocked when getting GB as a big surprise?! Unless if they like to do it, they should keep messing with it !

Fastboot is a protocol used to update the flash filesystem in Android devices from a host over USB. It allows flashing of unsigned partition images. It is disabled in devices with locked bootloader since USB support is disabled in said bootloader.

Also Z said a while back, regarding the Arc unlocking procedure:
zdzihu said:
Just a funny idea...
So the SE provides oem unlock codes for their devices. Obviously we cannot use fastboot with S1 loader.
But what would happen if we use usbloader with fastboot mode enabled...
Click to expand...

So we can't enter fastboot with the provided loader for sure.
The post is quite old (16th April 2011) so I guess this idea unfortunately has sunk.
But maybe someday there will be a workaround...

[Q] unlock or not unlock?

Ok, theese phones are good, rooted we're able to do almost everything, but we lose DRM and other cool stuffs, so I'm not so sure if unlock my ray or not and I think many ppl are in my same situation. Do our phones really need to be unlocked? Well, maybe when any good ROM will be cooked, but now?
Motivate me please^^ and sry for my bad english
Do you enjoy your phone as it is now? Is your warranty still valid?
In my opinion you should keep it locked down, at least until a really good ROM comes out or your warranty expires.
Rooting and unlocking is mostly usefull for devices without stock gingerbread. Like x8 and x10 mini. But xperia mini is good without root. I have the mini and it is an awesome device. Keep it origional.

right, I know... damn!!!!
My problem is far from crappy DRM but more for future updates as SE says "no updates via OTA with unlocked BL".
Does it means that with seus we'll still be able to update future fw ? In that case I'll jump on root procedure (cos I hate their "popcap games" app eating 9% of my battery stats !)

Not true at all. While you may not have access to the backend of your phone, it is still extremely customizable. Compared to something like an iPhone.
The option for root will always be avaliable to you anyhow, just because your phone isnt rooted now doesnt chaange that fact.

Yes, you'll need an unlocked bootloader. If you're going to try it, here is a flashing guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20796650&postcount=26
Here is their changelog (it is combined with their CyanogenMod Gingerbread project as well, but is easy enough to figure out):
http://code.google.com/p/freexperia/
As for checking whether your bootloader is locked or unlocked, S1 Tool is your friend. You can download it from here:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21624172/Flashtool/s1tool.7z
Decompress the downloaded file.
Run the utility.
Click the 'IDENTIFY' button.
Power Off your X10.
While the X10 is off, plug your USB cable to the phone, but don't plug the other end to the computer yet.
Hold down the back button on the X10 and while doing that, plug the other end of the USB cable to the computer.
S1 Tool will then read your phone and display several lines of information.
Look at the first line that starts with 'Running S1_EROM VER'. If the version number that follows starts with a capitalized 'R', that means your bootloader is locked. If it starts with a lower-case 'r', your bootload is unlocked.
will this work with all roms?
U have to be on Stock 2.1 and Use S1 tools n before that check if u have used any third Party unlocking if u did n/w or Sim unlock. if non then use the tool
This guide is pretty helpful if you're considering unlocking the bootloader of your X10:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19685019&postcount=7
Read it carefully, though.

[Q] Sony Ericsson Xperia ray - Blank/Black screen issue

Hi all,
I have an Xperia ray on GB 2.3.4 and have a major problem with the screen. Most of the times when booting up the phone, the screen is blank/black but the backlight seems to be working and I can still interact with the display i.e. slide unlocking the phone and can hear the sound as well.
From time to time, the phone works as normal but this issue is there as soon as I decide to shutdown/restart the phone.
Help will be appreciated.

Oh man. I got this issue too on my good ol' Ray. I think it happened because I dropped it. I also lost the blue led on the home button arc, now instead of white it turns on yellow :/
Anyway, has anyone gotten his replaced\fixed after getting this problem? I had the bootloader unlocked with the wire method (s1tool or whatever it was called), then I relocked it after I hard bricked it once sometime last year, I hope they don't notice it and replace mine under warranty.

Xperia P looks like big problem Help :D

Hello guys,
i ****ed up the new Xperia P from my wife i was trying to instal cm9 for her so the battery life would be a lot better. i also did it wit my S and my Z is coming soon .
But now here comes the problem. I unlocked the bootloader trough the sony's way/website then installed superuser from binary. en then i flashed by accident the wrong kernel, so now only the little red ligt glows up and that's it. im searching for a stock NL rom to fix it... but it also looks like i cant enter fastboot anymore the light turns up bleu but then after a few seconds the ligt goes back to red and the flash tool doenst recognize the phone anymore
so who knows wat to do now ? how to get fastboot/flashtool working again and the NL stock rom
many thanks in advance, because my wife isn't happy atm
i followed this vid for my S and her P
ww w. youtube.com/watch?v=TrP-IBuAeN0

Yeah i think i flashed the stockrom back but It looks like the locked clockworkmod is overruling. Is That possible?

Did the phone booted? If yes, then you have stock kernel. If your bootloader is locked, the use sony program to repair your phone. Ckick on update, it will probably tell you that it already has latest firmware. Click on repair and follow instructions... I dont think kernel override in this case is possible as flashtool flash the whole firmware.
One recomendation, always read the op for instructions and if its for locked or unlocked. But after this, you probably will
EDIT: if you are not sure, try to use flashtool once again. Do do same procedure as before.
ADVICE:if you want to use better kernel and roms, unlock your bootloader. Waiting till warranty end, your wife will not be happy anyway. This opens you a lot of possibilities and most important thing, her phone will fly for a long time. Im using stock rom and sliding kernel, awesome combination.

Thanks For the answer. Yes the phone boots but i see only the sony logo you always see. But not even the xperia logo That follows next.
Also the phone is unlocked with the sony unlock code and rooted with the patch from bin4ry.
But after a long evening trying to get the mod running, and after status 7 error after error i tought maybe its the clockworkmod. And i read the site 3 times but It appears i missed the part "for locked bootloaders only"
So yeah i won't make That mistake Again indeed
But i flashed several times the stock rom back but it stays on the sony logo and sadly that's it

kernel
Ok, get this kernel
http://rapidgator.net/file/76795117/kernel.zip.html
its from this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2029756
Hit thanks there...
Unzip and use the .54.
Switch phone off (power+volume up until 3 vibs...)
Open flashtool, click on that flash, select fastboot mode.
Now press and keep VOLUME UP and connect to the computer.
In flashtool press "Select Kernel to Flash".
A window will appear, choose the .54 you just downloaded and hit ok.
It takes about 2 seconds to flash the kernel, so no worries. Look into the main flashtool window, you'll see if the action wasd successfull.
Then disconnect and try to start, if nothing, then try to flash the stock firmware again.
Sweet thanks going to try This when in back at home. It looks very similar to wat iv'e done already. But iv'e used kernel B.599 or it was B.559.
So, ill Let you know if it worked

Yeah but this is about a Xperia P
so i guess that its better to don't try that. because they say DON'T use it other devices like Xperia U,P etc. only use for Sola.
so i hope u have another suggestion
edit f*cking retard i am sometimes :S the link for the P is in the description xD
im sorry for that !
edit 2
wel i tryed to flash the rom back. but it still stays on the sony logo and now i can only turn it of by hard pushing the pwr and vol up key and waiting for the 3 vibs to come. so its really strange i can flash roms and stuff but it stays on the sony logo

Sorry for confusion.
So for P...
Go to that thread. There are 3 kernels
Download them and try to flash in fastboot. Instructions in earlier post.
Or just simply try fix with pc companion. It use flashmode anyway (volume down and plug...)
