Did you use the sim lock checking tool?
You need to get the device unlocked properly for it to work. There are plenty of warnings about this in every bootloader unlock thread.

Is it possible that you unlocked your device with the setool2 bat instead of the semc bat?

After unlocking you may need to reflash your baseband again.

If you have used setool.bat then you have to be sure that your phone has been unlocked with setool2 before!

few questions about using the unlocker, whilst using the qsd8250 _semc and qsd8250_setool2,
does the phone have to be in flash mode or just connected to pc via usb with usb debugging enabled??
any help greatly appreciated

If I am not mistaken, and correct me if I'm wrong. But the laser said that if you have used any 3rd party unlocking, you will lose your radio signal. You will have to pay to have your sim card unlocked again from the lasers site before it will work again.

You wouldn't know what kind of tools they would use to test to make sure your phone is still valid for warranty, they may as well use an unsigned sin file to test whether you have done stuff on the bootloader.
So my advice is don't do anything yet until you get your phone back from the service centre.

Thanks,
there is one One touch tool to unlock bootloader but the thing is u need to be on 2.1 then it can unlock bootloader easily !! if u can flash 2.1 then search for the one touch tool i dont remember the name exactly but u can search the forums for it !!
If you go here:

Edit: Is your phone sim locked or unlocked? If it is unlocked u need to check with s1tool if you can actually unlock this way (it can break your device). Info for this is here:

No.even 2.3.3 also can unlock bootloader using Flashtool.
Here's the easiest step.
1.Download the latest flashtool.
2.Flash the phone to stock SE 2.3.3 ROM.
3.Root Your Phone
4.Click Plugin & unlock your bootloader.
Thats all.

Search forum for s1tool and follow. Also (not sure if this is accurate or not) type on keypad *#*#service#*#*, go on service info, software info & check s1 boot version it has few numbers then r8a033. If the r Is lower case (like above) then I believe u have unlocked. Even easier after I type all this flash doom kernel for unlock bl if se logo is replaced by dooms boot pic then u unlocked allow

Hi,
I have a WT19i with Three UK.. *yada yada*
I got this phone because I wanted something new that looks good and works well, Since February and now I have discovered - I don't like the UI and I can't stand the screen.
Basically all I'm looking to do is unlock my bootloader so I can flash MIUI or CM9 but apparently, Three aren't going to let me unlock it. I checked in the service menu and it shows that the bootloader unlock is not allowed which really sucks.
I was going to do the testpoint method or official but after reading up, testpoint on a phone with 'Bootloader unlock allowed: No' can brick it..
Does anyone know if this is true? I'm seriously considering trying it anyway with S1 boot of whatever.. I can't stand this stupid software and UI anymore.
Thanks!
You need to use paid method to unlock your phone and enable fastboot. After that can bootloader be unlocked.

@Someguyfromhell You mean network unlock? I paid for my phone to be unlocked by Three last Saturday but they still don't have the key yet They said hopefully this Saturday
After that should I be able to unlock the bootloader?

Incorrect if done with code at the operator.
Only WotanServer, Omnius and these providers unlock both(at once I think, not sure).
To install custom ROM, install the custom kernel provided with the ROM, enter recovery and install the ROM.
Kernel installation is included in my tutorial, link in signature.

So will I have to unlock my bootloader some other way?
Installing kernels is just using the boot.img in the roms .zip through fastboot isn't it? Done it before on my old GT540 many times What command is it on the LWW?
I used to use flash boot boot.img?

Yes, but if you had network lock you might have to enable fastboot also. Check it from service menu. Then you can unlock bootloader. Also in my tutorial.
Command ia "fastboot flash boot boot.img".

Hmm well i did that to update my phone via update service and it worked. But btw how do you know when ur phone is unlocked or not?
could you explain a little bit on how you unlock bootloader? if you use test point method just use s1 tool and click restore. but if use official way (sony website) then use flashtool with files names "xperia relock bootloder" or something i cant remember so far it managed to relock the bootloader.
I buy last month phone and unlock with official method before couple days. I have that file,flesh via fleshtool but when is done,on fleshtool writhe that -phone will reboot-,but nothing is happaned. I manualy turn on the phone and try to update via seus and then get error that phon isnt recognized
Sent from my ST15i using xda app-developers app
Relocking Bootloader is useless,it wont get your warranty back (Well you can get it back when using test point)
Official Method has your Phone IMEI stored on SONY database so when you go to service center they will check if your IMEI is already Unlocked or not

for that option to be displayed you need to be on rooted stock rom of sony gb.
For this, u need to click on repair option in pc companion and after u successfully get on gb sony rom u need to root it and then the option to unlock bootloader will b displayed.
