I would like to send the phone in service, so I am interested in whether it is possible without problems through official unlocked phone?
The first time I successfully unlocked and is now locked to send in service, that if it can be again unlocked the same way?
Thanks in advance.

yes bootloader
Should work the same, just if you get replaced device back, then IMEI is different.
Haven't tested, not sure, just an opinion.

i know that the imei is different if i got another device, but if i got same device can i enter same cod i use firs time to unlock bootloader?
Yes, code stays the same then.
Are you sure? If we're talking about BL unlock, isn't the code calculated based on the IMEI? So, if you get a new phone (different IMEI) then code should be different...

Hi, I've had my ray for about a week now, and i'm already sick of the stock .62
I started unlocking my bootloader, the method from the Sony website. But when it asks me for my IMEI, it wants a 14 digit number, and mine is 15. I don't know what to do. Is there another solution? I would love some help. I have searched everywhere but apparently no one has the same problem.
I want to flash Miui but i'm new to this phone and I don't have a clue about anything. It was so much easier on my Optimus One

It's sim locked. You must unlock it with paid service.

delete the last number of your imei to become 14 digit
6. Enter your name, email address, the first 14 digits (remove the last digit) of your phone’s IMEI number

i need to unlock my bootloader
please pelp
get an unlock code from your network provider, some people have said that once they removed the simlock its let them unlock the bootloader. if that doesnt work then theres not much you can do untill someone works out another way to unlock it
no fastboot mode.
Theres only one solution I know of, and it may be a crazy one....
Use search first, and read the other 500 threads created on this topic ;-)
Short answer: No, not able to be done yet.

If you want to unlock the boot loader, use the wotanserver.com
* In addition to sim unlock you get an unlocked bootloader.
However, it seems to me that at the moment, this service does not support SXS
Try to write the administration service.

= the post above was completely unnecessary as it does *NOT* provide a way of unlockning bootloader for SXS.

What is a "rootable bootloader"?
For the Croatian members:
I've just called customer service of Vipnet( Vodafone) and they told me that there is no problem, you can unlock boot loader for only 480 HRK (~65€).
Well, if there's no free unlocking solution in few weeks I'll have to milk some cash. It's still better then locked for life.

Pay more for a phone that's SIM-Free and not subsidized by a network. That is the only way.
guys, try the ezSEMC. it's realy working, but it's paid.
I'm not seller. I used it on my acro hd and i'd got the bootloader unlock allowed: yes.
What about U/P/Sola

Even paid, I think if it works is really worth...
I have a problem, which i have just now found out, Before the Jelly Bean update my Xperia P's Bootloader unlock status is allowed ie YES( i checked it myself and also installed cm9 for sometime), but after the update when i tried to unlock bootloader i couldn't do that, when i checked in service menu i found that Bootloader unlock status has changed to NO, how could this happen, pls someone help me to unlock my bootloader.
Does any one facing the same problem?
u r nt alone.. someone else too reported this... why dun u check it ... just flash back ics and see whether it changes or not

is there any way to make it allowed in JB itself?
In my Xperia Go, the Bootloader Unlock status was NO. However, I took the chance and did it anyway. I just followed the instruction to unlock the bootloader and voila! Now the phone's bootloader is unlocked. The only downside is that the phone's data seems to have reset. I don't know whether that was supposed to happen, but I can flash custom kernels now, so the bootloader truly is unlocked.

I didn't do anything special. Like I said, I just took a chance and did it. I have no idea why it worked even though the bootloader unlock status said NO. My phone's unbranded. Maybe Sony slipped up.

Hmm....SIM lock and Bootloader lock is different my friends....unlocking SIM lock just to make your phone usable with any SIM card while unlocking Bootloader is for development purpose....
all phone will SIM Lock can be unlock easily but for Bootloader lock that depend on the date of your phone is manufacture...

Thank you. brief explanations very carefully
Hey, just like the topic, do you have any advice?
I would add that:
-Button fastboot is locked
-I can not unlock the bootloader
The phone was purchased in orange the same hence the lock
Recently I wrote here in the forum but to no avail.
Please household remedies not services.
If you have bootloader unlock = no in service menu, there's no known way to unlock it -- some claim you can after getting it SIM unlocked, others say it doesn't help...

no it doesn't matter if it's sim locked or not.. if you got no on the unlock bootloader service menu then nothing can be done.

Yes,I send it on service repair because I corrupt bootloader.
Then Sony replaced it with clean one and much faster NAND memory.
You will lose phone for a week but hey,you will get faster and unlocked phone.

So I have a choice:
1: Sell the phone and buy the same but with the ability to unlock the bootloader
2:, CONTACT Sony to replace me (higher costs and a long wait on the phone)
edit:
Maybe TESTPOINT metod?
NO TESTPOINT, IT HAS BEEN PATCHED!
