you cannot update with bootloader unlocked, try relock it if you want update from PCC.
or try to find the ftf here and flash it directly from Flashtool.

No official ICS for unlocked bootloaders ?

I just read on the Sony Developer site that the ICS update will not be available for those with an unlocked bootlader WTF ?
"Also, if you unlock the boot loader, you will not be able to download and install the final Ice Cream Sandwich software upgrade for Xperia™ phones."
Just look for the article "ICS beta ROM now available for unlocked Xperia™ PLAY smartphones" .. it's about 3/4 down the page :?(
Good thing I unlocked via Testpoint method...
I think it could be possible that SEUS or PC Companion are checking IMEI, if the phone was unlocked via Sony...
simple relock won't do it I guess :/
But don't worry, a few days after our devs will come up with a flashable generic and prerooted rom

That is because DRM keys are lost, which are needed to use PC Companion and Update Service to update phone firmware.
It is not sure, if relocking will do the deal or not, as least not before it is released.
Relocking with Flashtool will definitely work & also if yhu unlock BL via Testpoint Method den yhu can update via SEUS, PCC!
Dude, didn't you read when unlocking bootloader? its written in big red fonts on bootloader unlock page that you will not get further updates after unlocking.
Officially, the bootloader can only be unlocked, that's why the warning with red letters.
Unofficially, it is possible to relock the bootloader and after that it's possible to update software again. I tested it multiple times.
The only thing You loose permanently is the DRM. Cheers!

Yes, you can read my tutorial, a guide is there.
Sent from my Xperia Live using xda premium
i think u must wait untill the original work rom from xperia team out.
and if u want test ics xperia u must unlock BL because this rom is porting rom and this is mod. so if u want u device still unlock i think u must wait..

[Q] Upgrading from custom Rom to Official ?

I have Night Elf kernel and [2.3.7] X-GAMER [V1.2] on my Neo.
Bootloader is unlocked.
The question is,
What happens if I try to use SUS or sony ericsson update service to upgrade it official ICS?
What is risky or has it no risk?
Depending on how you unlocked your bootloader.
If officially, then you won't be able to update it. Pcc/seus will show you error.
If unofficially, with test point, then yes you could update it. If the rom you are using have good phone description in build.prop.

[Q] Xperia P: Unable to update via PCC

I recently rooted my Xperia P (JB 4.1.2, unlocked bootloader) using the ThP's JB_stock_autoroot.img available here.
Now when I tried to install the updates using PCC, it said that modified software installed and hence cancelled the update. Is it because of the unlocked bootloader or rooting the phone?
Cheers,
Saurav

So now if i wish to relock the bootloader keeping my phone rooted, what steps do i need to follow? I have downloaded the file LT22i_relock_bootloader.ftf which can help me relock the bootloader. Anything else that I should keep in mind before/while/after flashing this file?
Cheers,

If i am not wrong you must be on full stock (kernel and rom) and you relock. You can search around as i have not relocked my bl before as i never unlocked it.
I am back. Ignore forum signature 1st line.
You can create the FTF from PCC files

I have flashed the relock file more than once without any problem.
You can root JB .100 with DooMLoRD Easy Rooting Toolkit

Preparation of Marshmallow

Hi,
Can I please get some assistance so when Marshmallow is released, I can update my phone?
I've currently got unlocked bootloader and rooted wth TWRP. Do I need to unroot first?
Or Is it just the case of using flashtools to update and installing TWRP to root again?
Thank-you!
Since your bootloader is unlocked, you have to download the marshmallow ftf and flash via flashtool. And yes, you have to install twrp again to root again. Unlocked bootloaders can't be updated via OTA or Sony PC Companion
