Hi guy's,
I've been looking everywhere and managed to find a few random threads but most of the links are gone and Ive been trying to piece information together but can not seem to get S1tool to unlock my Neo
My Neo is not network locked (it was bought in Singapore and is running on a German prepay simcard) S1tool can recognise the phone (when I do an IDENTIFY) but when I try to unlock the bootloader nothing happens..
Its say to remove battery, connect testpoint to phones battery negative terminal then press "Testpoint READY" and attach USB cable... but it just sits there.. I have installed all drivers possible.. does S1tool still work on the Neo's?
Has anyone on here used that method? I don't really want to lose DRM and track id etc... so the official method doesn't seem the best.
Seems like someone is trying really hard to remove mention of it on XDA all I find is links to a website where someone is charging to unlock the phones.. hrm.
Any idea's?
Kiwi
EDIT..
O.K.. I found this thread.. here this time it worked.. seems I had the wrong driver installed for the Qualcom USB device... Bootloader unlocked and still have DRM..
Kiwi
yes its possible but you CANT relock it
Thought s1tool could relock too.. Oh well, don't know why I would ever want to relock it anyway.. (never been one for warranties anyway)

nope sorry mate, you better use the official one, i did it to with the official like i told, so i relock it again because when you have unlocked bl you cant not update through official se programs like pc companion etc
I'm pretty sure that I can still do OTA updates with my unlocked bootloader.. One of the advantages of using S1tool over official method

He should be able to use pc companion I think if drm keys are fine.Using setool2 method and I still can use pc companion.s1tool is kinda crippled version of setool2 I guess

Hmm ok and yes i geuss he can that to, but im not for sure i have no unl bl ya know
Yep, been reading up on other forums too, they say I can use the same S1tool to relock my bootloader (Repair button) also the ability to use SEUS to update and still having DRM intact.. I think I'll stay away from "official method" this one seems to have no disadvantages

Yes, you can use SEUS/PC Companion if you unlocked BL with s1tool or setool2 method.

With setool2 method I can confirm you can use pc companion,tested on my Neo V and works.If it won't work for you my guess is afaik 1st you used official method to unlock bl right ? if yes you would've lost your drm keys,and I think that is why you cannot use pc companion.Bcos I remember kiwi posting that pc companion worked on his phone which got bl unlocked by s1tool method and drm keys was not lost too.

I guess as the camera is diff, the libs will cause issues. Will not suggest to take risk.
All the old root methods are not working, looks like all old exploits are closed in 2.3.4. Looking for an exploit to root. Lets see. If anyone already rooted Neo v, please share.
I totally agree that it is a risk and I would not do it because I understand very little about the subject android.
but it is only a guess.
The issue is very large libraries because I do not understand

Lol all I got to do now is unlock the boatloader as mine I can't unlock from what is says on the Sony Ericsson dev site. Mine phone is on T-Mobile any one got any ideas
Sent from my MT11i using xda premium
if you are on t-mobile then your bootloader & fastboot will be locked by your carrier...
Dial *#*#7378423#*#* , then goto service info > configuration . At the bottom you should see this
Bootloader unlock allowed :YES or NO , IF YES UNLOCKING SUPPORTED IF NO UNLOCKING IS NOT SUPPORTED
If it says NO then you have to buy 5 credits to use a full SETOOL to unlock your bootloader & you fastboot(if it is locked too)
@vimjam : The link Unofficial Unlocking Method 2 does not work.
Can you please update the same ?
I am not a noob..have played alott with HTC and samsung phones...but sony seems to b a different ball game all together..i hv been reading threads since the last two days to unlock the bl of my neo v..and flash roms and stuff...
but there are a couple of qstns that are bothering me...
1-I wanted to install KA20.1 Ics rom..since its official stripped down ics... but it needs unlocked bootloader. i am currently running gb..2.3.4 .62...
first i though of rooting and using gb as it is.. but now since ics is here i am inclined to use ics
so here is my question..
If i unlock my bootloader..and then flash official ics using flashtool..will the bootloader get locked again?? will it create any kind of issue for me with regard to using flashtool and flashing official ics?? if yes then what..
will it have to b unlocked again???
and the next question
Everything remains the same in case of jj hybrid rom also??
but i wud appreciate all the help i can get ..cz whatever i learn i always give it back to the forum..
xda rocks..
cheers...

No.
Though not sure what you meant by "flashing official ics". If you meant with flashtool, then answer is still no.
If you meant on using PCC or SEUS then answer depends how you unlock your BL. IF you unlock it unofficial way, with s1tool, then you won't have any problem. If you unlock it via IMEI code from Sony developer page, then you won't be able to use PCC or SEUS until you relock your BL(which is done by flashing 1 ftf file).
And for both official and unofficial way worth rule, do not use OTA updates. For official way, that's 100% correct, while for unofficial way, some report problems, some don't have them.

You mean 2 -ve battery pins? Yeah, only connect to 1, it's enough. Or you can also connect it to simcard holder, as I read, people also do that. Point is to ground it, whatever method you want

You're not irritating. Usually I would irritate if someone asks without researching, but as I see you actually research yourself, so it's not hard to answer you

I don't like OTA, and after you unlock your BL it will be smart not to use it, as we told above.
And if you unlock your BL it's much easier to root it, as I wrote, check that thread I linked in this post and try.

Well if you actually want to update to ics and you don't care about region and so just download a ftf file here in xda and flash it using flashtool it is easier and you don't have to wait for a regional or even branded update.

Uhhh...maybe because we do not want to lose our warranty???! Anyway, testpoint method is an easy procedure as well...just can't get it to work properly and I have read a post somewhere that models after a specific manufacturing date are not supported by s1tool due to new security measures by sony.:crying:..can someone with experience in this issue please confirm this to me and topicstarter? Regards, andy

Please read before posting useless info...
Use the OFFICIAL way and don't worry about those DRM Keys...
I used the same way and i'm having no problems...:good:
u won't need DRM anyway... (at least I didn't)
I really like them but I cannot unlock my bootloader. So is it possible?
You can unlock your bootloader using Wotanserver
It costs 5€ now.

Thanks, I will try to contact
but I guess that can not be opened after the 12W
Please notify me too
Can not open
Did you try official method on http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/ ?
Mine is 12w14 unlocked via official method since test point method is not working
nope. I think it works only "bootloader unlock allowed: yes" device. mine says no :/
