Excuseme.....I have a little problem...
I did the procedure to relock the bootloader on my Xperia mini pro .. sk17i to use seus .. but the phone will not turn on ..
But the file is also relockbootloader for this phone?
I guess that you have flashed the insecure boot.img, which cannot boot the phone with the looked bootloader.

I made the test ... relocking my bootloader and SEUS told me I have got the last FW without the possibilities to re-install it !
I can't use TrackID for example...

It was told that you will loose drm forever, so no trackid
That means when we flash the kernel, we loose something from SE ...
Could we make a complete copy of the nand before flashing it for restoring later if needed ?
same
on sues it says, could not find any firmware for your device, but i have relocked bootloader
any ideas
firmware uk
the reason i wanted to use seus was to get the firmware downloaded, so i could root it, because the firmwares on here have foreign apps that werent on my phone when i got it from shop

am on stock kernel and ...58 firmware.
(SEUS, PCcompanion)... none offer me any update. they say i've no update to install..
OTA is available on my sk17 but afraid to go for it
neep help

How can you have OTA files if SEUS is not working?
restore the DRM
Can I restore the DRM keys by relocking bootloader via flashtool?
if I can't do it that way, shall I still hope that it is possible to do somehow?

Nope, DRM cannot be restored at all, if it's gone, then it's gone.

Not 100% sure but you may unroot after updating. someone can confirm.
i have locked bootloader, so i don't know if there are problems with unlocked, but my neo was rooted on .42 and stay rooted after .62 ota update.
If you unlocked your bootloader via se official way then no you will brick your phone with a fota update, if you unlocked with setool2 paid for method then you should be fine, but i'm not sure about the setool1 method.
Why not flash with flashtool ?
NO WAY DON´T DO THAT YOU WILL BRICK YOUR PHONE!!!!
Use wotanserver or other way.

thanx for that info! Not really thinking of updating but dat notification kinda annoying..
any idea of removing/deleting that notification without moving to .62?
one more question... if i flash with flashtool the .62 firmware, will my bootloader still be unlocked?
Sure it will be unlocked.
The bootloader as nothing to do with the firmware.
To root you must to flash rootxperia.zip through recovery, it´s the easy way.
Search in the foruns and you will find the thread.

I have a Neo bought unlocked with 2.3.3, I made OTA update and I briked my phone. After restore, first I flashed with a new 2.3.3 and after used x10 flash tool, I rooted with DoomLoRD_v4_ROOT. I received that is a new software update available, I was affraid to do it by OTA and I done with pc software update from SE. After update I still have superuser app but my neo is not rooted.
How can I root it again without any flashes or downgrade. Is out there any app working? I tried with Gingerbreak, SoperOneClick v2.3.3 and DoomLoRD_v4_ROOT, but no result.

How is you bootloader unlocked? Official way, s1tool or setool2?
And you can't root .62 without downgrading first to .42. But I guess that trick only works for bootloaders unlocked NOT BY OFFICIAL way, but still not sure, that's why I'm asking you.
Hi, I will have SE Xperia Neo V, and I have 2 questions:
1. Root - I update my phone SEUS and I want to root my xperia. How to do it? am looking for an easy way.
2. OC - I wanted to speed up the phone using OC and Smartass v2. How is the easiest way to upload?
In both cases I will not unblock the bootloader! Must stay stock rom and kernel, only OC and root will be in my phone.
Please help me.
Sorry for english, google translator help me
Make your life better and unlock bootloader
About rooting we have many noob tutorials.
OC you get only with unlocked bootloader.

And I will be update Neo V to official 4.0 and and it is important to me
I recommend use Flashtool!!

No, only SEUS, OTA, PC Companion, official ICS will be first in this, in flashtool later...

You already got answer so why asking again?
To be honest not sure about ota but pc comp. and seus will work. ota should work 99%.
locked or unlocked your still going to get it but probably before with unlocked boot loader because carrers will still need to push update not that's what's going to take the time

Hi All,
Recently got an xperia s, and to be honest been having a few issues with it, i.e memory probs connecting to pc, and yellow tint on screen.
Stupidly prior to checking everything as always I jumped and unlocked the BL, and installed a custom kernel and rom, XSX and K10 ICS.
I had also prior to this updated to ICS via sony. Problem is now I realised that it has the yellow tint at the bottom of the screen so prior to sending it back to sony I want to relock BL and install stock ICS again and stock kernel.
Please can someone show me a link to this I'm in UK and have a factory unlocked version, I have tried to search but I am confused to which one I need, I also cannot find any kernel.
Finally they are all FTF files and I need to be in Flashmode to use these, unfortunately for some reason my phone will not stay in flashmode green light for more than a few minutes and it just boots up so I dont want to start flashing only for it to stop in between and brick my phone any ideas?.
BTW I managed to install fastboot drivers in windows 8 I know some people had problems in windows 7 & 8, I found a solution if anyone needs
Thanks
Mav.
So simple ^^
1st You need to relock your BL via Flashtool by using This http://j.mp/xps_relock

And when it's done, just update your phone normally via SEUS (Sony Update Service)

Thanks jvsykes,
I thought that you had to first have a stock kernel installed prior to relocking your BL otherwise it would brick your phone, I read it somewhere, I would prefer to have a stock kernel and stock firmware then relock the BL, then possibly put it through SEUS to make sure everything is right.
you dont need to relock the BL for yellow tint issue, the custom roms have nothing to do with it, ive sent my phone back twice unlocked bl and custom fw and its been fixed twice without question

Isnt the firmware link rooted?, if so unlocking BL more thank likely will brick it so i've read, also when I go to download it asks for a mob number dont really fancy that?
Dont really want to risk sending away if BL is locked anarchyuk, although i know by right they should fix it.

But its not a UK stock, I've managed to use flashtool to install 6.1.a.0.453, but of course thats not officlally our yet so if i sent it in they would know at some point its been rooted to install this rom.

I can flash this, then relock BL, then use SEUS to update to stock 6.1.A.4.52
Does that seem correct?, or will I have probs?
Also the file I would be using to relock BL is called X10_V1_BLRelock.ftf is this correct?

Reflash the stock firmware then the bootloader lock. Also look in development section for Xperia s Relock. It is called that not the X10 one.

Hi guys,
Just realized there is a new update. I am on rooted .290 model C6802,
Here are my few questions:
1. Do i need to update it from Sony Pc Companion ? As on rooted fw there is no notification for any updates.
2. Do i get to keep root ?
3. Will I still have an unlocked bootloader?
4. Will I still have a stock kernel ?
5. How do i update it to a clean stock rom will every thing 'untouched' ? Wanna check a few things and then root later.
6. Any improvement in this fw ?
7. how do i keep track of fw update as my ultra doesnt deliver me any notification ?
1. You have to update it through PC Companion or SUS..
2. No doubt your root will be lost..
3. To keep the root you've to first update then unlock the Bootloader of your device..which will void your warranty unless you take a TA backup and then unlock..
4. To root on your lock Bootloader you've to wait for a while..
Revert back if you need anymore info..
Hit Thanks if I helped you..

1. I've not see anyone with an ota update, I think they have all been PCC or flashing a FTF
2. The FTF kills root, not sure about PCC. Root is easy to get back with a unlocked bootloader http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2630781
3. Wont touch the BL state
4. Yes
5. Um... just flash the FTF or via PCC - make a nandroid backup beforehand of cause
6. There is a thread about this in grneral
7. Plug in the ultra to a PC, some of the updates have come as OTA, but will normally fail on a rooted device
Thank you for the reply
The update doesnt work from the pc companion on rooted devices.

That leaves two causes, unroot and flash via PCC or flash the FTF from flashtool. Plenty of ways to get root back if you have an unlocked bootloader now
FTFs are here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2453921

Lol! But C6833 is an LTE variant. I think it will drain battery. I guess c6802 should work better on its dedicated stock fw.
Anyways u knw better.
btw to unroot you need a locked bootloader. To avoid bootloops a stock kernel is required rt ? I am on fw. 290 but cant find the stock kernel anywhere.
Hello everyone. Seriously need help here with a xperia z ultra c6883. I bought it off someone and tried to do an update from the phone but it keeps saying 14.3.A.0.757 could not verify. FYI, I checked to see if bootloader is locked and it says yes. I downloaded rootchecker and it says device not rooted. I dont know where to turn. i just want to be at stock.
android version says- 4.4.2
baseband version says -8974-AAAAANAZQ-10270045-39
kernel version says - 3.4.0-perf-g8c33725
[email protected] #1
build number says_ 14.3.A.0.681
What does this all mean? Am I rooted? Do I have an unlocked bootloader? Can I just go back to stock? Or is it easier to just upgrade to lollipop?
Try locking the boot loader and then connect to Sony PCC and redo the phone.

you can use flashtool (http://flashtool.net) to relock the bootloader, but if you download flashtool you may as well just use that to update the ZU to the latest FTF from here (see the FTF thread in the dev section)
Is there a how to video on the process? Ive read things like ( I need to know what rom im using or drm keys etc etc) Dont know what to do.

In the FTF thread there is a video
As you brought the ZU already bootloader unlocked the DRM keys are gone (unless the last owner still has the backup). Just flashing a FTF doesn't relock the bootloader, you have to use the BLU icon in flashtool. The BL does't have to be locked to flash a FTF but it does to get/use the updates directly from Sony.
Any more Q's just ask
Ok thank you for the info. If you dont mind I might hit you up tommorrow for more Q's.
