Without sim lock you can unlock yourself using SE website unlock tutorial.

How to unlock bootloader when not allowed?

Hi, this is just probably a stupid question, but is there anyway of unlocking bootloader when it says that it is not allowed after typing in *#*#7378423#*#* and going to Service Info, configuration? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
By the way, I did google it.

Hey friend,
You have to unlock bootloader by SE Unlock bootloader 1.6v. This thread is available in development section. Just follow step by step.

This will not work as it is the official way to unlock the bootloader.
Currently the only way seems only via paid method because fastboot is not enabled.

That is because you had Bootloader Unlock Allowed: Yes.
He has it No, which means his fastboot is not enabled.

Does that mean if I unlock my phone network my bootloader will be able to be unlocked?

You need to do it via specific paid method, because you also need to get fastboot enabled. Just getting unlock code from network operator will not help, as it doesn't enable the fastboot and Bootloader Unlock Allowed stays No.

Sim Unlocked

I unlocked my bootloader through the pudding method. I then flashed CM7 onto my phone. Do I still have to unlock my sim to be carrier free?
Yes

Is this working? (Unlock bootloader)

http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/unlocking-boot-loader
I stumbled across that page, and I wanted to know if it's legit? it seems much easier than testpointing my Xperia Active.
Yes that will work, but voids your warranty. That's the official Bootloader unlock method by Sony. You will lose DRM and you cannot use ota Updates and trackid...

Besides, you can only use that method if you have Bootloader unlock allowed: yes, if no, only testpoint method will work

[Q] unlocking bootloader without using the official method?

Are there any devs who are working on an unlocking method for those who cannot use the official unlocking procedure?
Its impossible. To unlock the bootloader, you need the key from SONY. Every key is DIFFERENT.
