Hi guys
I'm just wondering if there are any ROM's out there for the Mini (ST15i) that don't need a unlocked bootloader? I don't want to unlock it at this time but would love to try some modified Roms. Is that possible?
Thanks in advance

The requirements for this says that you need unlocked bootloader and I asked about Roms that don't need unlocked bootloader.
But thanks anyway

Yes bro he's right...
Only with ICS this cam be possible..
And the way things are looking and the latest which I read in Sony forum a guy frm UK asked for the date of update of ICS of Sola. On Sony Facebook page and he got an answer which was heartbreaking and disappointing "Q4 was the ans frm Sony ie; by the year end!!! "

1) there is a relocking bootloader. Tft file which relocks your bootloader only { DRM KEYS WONT RETURN}which will help you to bypass Sonys altered software error while updating it through SEUS or PC Companion n you can update your device without any problem to latest firmware....
2) No performance change is noticed rather the performance wil increase if you using custom roms...
3)it works only for Xperia 2011 device

Hi for now, there are no known ways of rooting the locked Sola bootloader.
There are successful methods for this on ICS but not gingerbread, for now. I have tried so many.
Thanks for replies. Thread moved to the Q & A.
so we w8 ICS or FXP its like a race! xD
I got tired of waiting and crazy rumours so I did it, unlocked myself. I wanted root that much. Plus, I read B4anry explain in a comment exactly how Sony treats locked/unlocked bootloader, depending on what you've done, and I think I'm safe. He knows his stuff obviously!
I have Sony LWw WT19i running on stock rom and kernel and locked bootloader. I'm using 4.1.B.0.587.
Can it be rooted without unlocking bootloader and flashing rom? Can you refer to any thread that allow to do so?
Thanks before!
Plz read the sticky threads in general forums ..u will all info how to root without downgrading.
No. It can't. You must downgrade to 431

Umm...no dude....with e-root u cud directly root it and even if we choose the downgrade option there are 2 ways downgrading to .42/.58 rom and root it or just downgrade to a rootable kernel, for e.g. .562 kernel and then root.
Cheers,

Anyone think that is possible JB on LB?
Thanks

you need UB LB waiting for SONY
When I tried to install the ROM JB unofficial on mobile without being with UB it was dead.
But needed to perform the procedure to get UB finally use this exellent ROM.
u will need Unlock because we cant use the new drivers on locked Bl
wich makes it impossible to run.
offcourse it can be possible but not without sony
