I've just managed to root my X10a with Wolfs ROM after these steps: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1193753
Now I have a generic x10i 2.3.3 Android Vers.
How can I unlock the phone?
Thank you.
Best regards,
George Neata
The site I used to unlock my X10 was http://www.cellunlocker.net ... cost me $7.99, and the code was sent in roughly 30 minutes.

If you want to unlock the bootloader, see this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1256430. Worked great for me.
If you're talking the regional restrictions, I'm not sure, but Google it and you'll find some sites that charge for it. There should be a free method somewhere.

Well a friend of mine said that it's possible to bypass the trouble of unlocking, if you flash your firmware.
I have Xperia X10i and it's network locked. It's bought from france. Also he mentioned something that i have ''Orange''. If there is any guide to do so (i didn't find any on my own) i would be grateful if any of you guys forward me there.

Probably not. I have an X10i which was locked to Orange. Simplest solution is to google "unlock X10i Orange" and follow the rabbit. There are a couple of sites where if you provide the IMEI for your phone, part with about 20 Euros, you will receive an email in about 4-5 days with the unlock code and instructions to use that code. Be very careful entering the unlock code, as a mistake can mess the phone. Its not difficult.
I have a unlocked xperia x10a on 1.6, Ive read a few things that clash with each other about updating. I read about the flash tool that says you have to be at 2.1 to run the tool.
I want to update the android with either a custom build or even the official build it doesn't matter but im on tmobile and I dont want to loose the unlock and I've already read some material that says once its unlocked you cant update.
Is there a way to update to anything other then 1.6 without loosing the unlock or at least being able to re-unlock.
Im sorry if this has already been posted but I need a specific answer before I mess this up Ive been through like 4 phones in the last month lol.
I actually did the same thing. I bought a x10a from eBay, unlocked the phone, updated to 2.1, and put it on T-Mobile. I didn't lose the unlock when I updated.
As far as updating to 2.1 or other software, I used this guide here from agentJBM. I haven't had any problems. Hope this helps.

Hi, all

Upgrade to android 2.1 , root it using Super One Click or another tools. Then unlock it's bootloader like on instructions http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1254225 .

didn't know we can unlock the sim via the boot loader
Thanks for the help!
Hi everyone,
I have a X10a BL unlocked right now using MIUI Oddie v10 default kernel (FXP).
And about 4 day ago in my country every company is offering free sim unlock for all cell-phone. (we got a new law ).
We can achieve the sim unlocking introducing the IMEI of our cellphone and our cell-number in the carrier web page, but the PIN they send me is not working only in this phone.
Do i need to downgrade my firmware bts?
Thank you.

You could try the Flash tool given to us by Bin4ry and flash generic then follow the standard rom guide, thats how i did mine unlocked from Vodafone to originally get 2.3 standard, but lead to more xD

Relock ur bootloader then try pal. If it works, don't unlock again (unless u used s1tool u may lose radio).

can someone clarify please. tried search its either old info or not clear enough.
hopefully the answer can help future users with this subject in the year 2012.

No, it does not mean you can use any sim card.
my phone is network unlock, i cant upgrade my firmware via seus or se pc companion. but you can use flashtool to flash roms
thanks you both, after searching ive finally gathered it has to be sim unlocked by
factory, network provider.
using sites like http://simlock.com/ and da vinci team does this affect the bootloader unlock? i.e. flashing different kernals? im sure i read in the bootloader post that using 3rd party unlock your bootloader is locked again?
so for instance if i sim unlock from the sites mentioned, is my boot loader relocked or will i have to unlock it again after sim unlock?
at the moment my x10i is network locked to orange but 2.3.3 root/unlocked bootloader via flashtool.
I went whit cellunlocker.net
the best, used it on 3 phone.
takes about an hour to receive a code
and it do NOT interfere whit unlocking the boot loader
free unlock code from [email protected]
I called att today and to my suprise they gave me free unlock code for my sony x10 I bought it from a buddy of mine that got two phones lasy year and didnt pay the first bill
