Yes i know you told me earlier in a pm,
but does anyone now how you unlock network with setool?
x10 stand not in the list, only very old phones.

actually no. you dont have to unlock your phone carrier. i unlocked my bootloader without unlocking the phone carrier. there is a tool to check if you are eligible for unlocking your bootloader

You do NOT need to use setool to unlock your carrier before unlocking bootloader!
I was sim locked to vodafone (And never used setool) and I have unlocked my bootloader by following the steps posted in this thread with the kernel upgrade/downgrade method.
If you have never unlocked the sim then you can use the tool posted the_laser to unlock the bootloader.

Ok thanks mates

Bootloader question

I am kinda confused about the bootloader. So do you need to have an unlocked phone to unlock the bootloader? Because I'm a little afraid to do it because of the loss of radio signal! Please help
and i checked on that tool thats supposed to check if you can unlock the bootloader and and it said ready. My phone is not unlocked from the carrier.

If your phone isn't unlocked then you can use the SEMC_qd8250.zip to method to unlock your boot loader, but you can always use the SIM certificate check tool in the dev thread to check if what SIM certificate your phone has, post the tool in a second.

i have looked round for the answer myself, there seems to be alot of threads on this, all of them say no you can not unlock it unless using a payed method such as wotanserver also you most probably will need to sim unlock first, i think that then changes the status, well thats what i have read has happened to some, and a little something else the fw is the number such as 2.3.4 or 4.0.4, and the build number is the 4.1.b.431.
If you unlock it for any network using wotanserver it will unlock the bootloader aswell, I used them and it was fairly easy.

Can I unlock?

Hey everyone
I need a quick phone to last me a few months till my upgrade and the Neo V seems like a good deal, brand new for £70.
Now I never buy an android phone unless the bootloader can be unlocked. I understand that phones made after 12w14 cannot be unlocked or something? If the phone is made after 12w14 is there really no way to unlock it? It will be sim locked and I know it's necessary to unlock it to allow fastboot.
Basically can phones made after 12w14 be sim and bootloader unlocked?
Thanks

So if the boot loader unlock status says no, will sim unlocking it allow me to use the official unlock method ?

If you buy your phone brand new from an 'open' store than your phone should be sim unlocked.

If you want to know whether you can unlock your phone or not, here is an excerpt from Sony's forum.
1.First, you should confirm that it is possible to unlock the boot loader of your phone by checking the service menu. In your phone, open the dialler and enter *#*#7378423#*#* to access the service menu.
2.In your phone, tap Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status. If Bootloader unlock allowed says Yes, then you can continue with the next step. If it says No, or if the status is missing, your device cannot be unlocked.

Thanks but the phone will almost certainly be locked to T-Mobile.
What I need to know is, if the manufacturing date is past 12w14 is there a way for me to sim unlock and then unlock the boot loader ?

If I'm not mistaken, there is but you've to pay for it as your status says :No
You may use SeTool2
Or Wotanclient for doing so

Bootloader

I have a x10 running 2.3.3 official firmware.
I have rooted it.
So have I unlocked the bootloader?
If no,how to unlock it??
Sent from my X10i using xda premium
Rooting is not part of unlocking bootloader. Check first by dialing *#*#7378523#*#* and if bootloader says YES then you can unlock it. But if you are locked in a specific carrier then you need to unlock your sim first then proceed to unlocking bootloader. Check the development thread and look for proper bypass for bootloader unlocking.

Need to know more about your phone. In order to unlock bootloader your phone must to be factory unlocked. If so you can get steps from sony they will provide you a unlock code for the bootloader unlock process. If your phone is carrier locked you need to unlock your phone first and then you only can unlock the bootloader through special tools using sites like omnius.
