[Q][U20i]Bootloader unlock - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

Hi guys !
I have Xperia mini pro (U20i)
Baseband : M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404015
Kernel version : 2.6.29
Build number : 2.1.1.C.0.0
Rooted+Recovery
I want to unlock Bootloader,but before i have simlock and I paid 20€ for unlock.I read that unlocking bootloader restore simlock and I dont want pay again.
So my question: Is there any chance to unlock bootloader without restore simlock ?
Please give me a little chance
Sorry for my bad english
Greetings from Slovakia

I AM NOT COMPLETELY SURE, but I think you'll need to pay again. That's what I think, I've never been on that situation before...

thanx for reply..one more question: when i flash stock rom and stock kernel with SEUS will be bootloader still unlocked or it will be locked ?
sorry for english

Flashing ONLY WITH SEUS relocks bootloader. (In fact, the bootloader was never unlocked, only patched, so flashing something official removes the patch.)

Flashing with seus DOESN'T relock the boot loader!! Just flashes the stock rom and kernel.

Need help with flashtool / .71 firmware and miui

I've been trying all day to flash the .71 firmware and different kernels for miui.
I really want miui to work on my x10. I've tried all the provided kernels for the miui Roms I've tried.
I can flash the uk generic firmware fine but when I try the kernels in flashtool it keeps saying error aborted and keeps doing that but if I try uk generic again it flashes fine.
I have x10i uk vodaphone
Thanks

Have you unlocked your boot loader?
It was previously unlocked. If I reflash original uk firmware does it relock again? Any app about to test if it locked or not?

SIM unlocked or bootloader unlocked? to check if bootloader is unlocked run this: (post#2)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1254087
where it says: RUNNING S1_EROM FROM VER "r8Axxx" if the first letter is lowercase, you're unlocked. If you see "R8Axxx" the you will need to unlock.

[Q] please help

i unlocked my bootloader but now I dont has the signal did someone know how to repair this . sorry for my bad english
What baseband you are getting. Flash stock .71 baseband after you shift to 2.3 fw. I hope this works.
In the_lasers thread 'unlock bootloader, the proper method' there us a tool to relock your bootloader.
It seems you have tried to unlock your bootloader after using an incompatable Sim unlock method...there are warnings about that

Well if I unlock my BL, will it be permanently unlocked? Or can I lock it back again?
just for confirmation, is it still after UBL the kernel needed to be flash via flashtool and cant be flash through recovery?
I did knot Unlock my BL yet ....can i Unlock using the new Flash Tools v0.5.30 ??
Yes use flashtool if u can't press the button to unlock it because you don't meet the requirements. (think u need stock kernel)
Edit: yeah u can re-lock bl

yes now you have unlocked bootloader even if you flash any rom
you're good to go
You see, firmware and boot-loaders are two different things all together, once you've unlocked a boot-loader it's "unlocked" even if you install Stock Firmwares. There is a way to lock the boot-loader back again though, which requires a different process all together !!

bootloader!

isnt here ANY other way to unloack bootloader than by test pont method or official method!!!just bought an xpera mini st15i !!!plzzz helpp!!
Urghh if you mean other method than a TestPoint and official method = Nope,no method currently available...

Try to ask your nearest phone service and ask them to unlock your bootloader
Well,I adviced you to NOT unlock your bootloader as it is hard to relock it back (especially if you want to receive official ICS by sony)

As far as I know only stock roms can be instaled w/o bootloader unlocked :/
;////
samsung phones are much much much better in this case!!;9
Bootloader can be unlocked only 2 ways. Service shops will likely ask money. Relocking is actually easier than unlocking.
There is only one ROM that doesn't require unlocked bootloader, Xperia UXP NXT.

I got lucky I could unlock it for free via Omnius it was a mess tho >.< but I'm very happy with the results
What's omnius
??
It's like wotan server, allows you to unlock your bootloader, flash stock roms I think and check and repair your phone, it works for SE and Samsung if I'm not wrong :$
Edit:
You can check in here: http://www.omnius-server.com/

You can try to unlock your bootloader by downloading the flashtool and image created by quanghut. Try to search the link, I cant post links yet, I used that to unlock my bootloader.

You cannot unlock bootloader via Flashtool or any image files.
Bootloader is done via Official method or test point method. Quagnhut's(sorry if misspelled) program also uses official SE method.
