You must have perm root.
Which means you must have bootloader unlocked or s-off.

Its working perfect.... now its time for custom roms...
THANKS..
hmm im debating on doing the bootloder unlock, once i do it i can never get s-off
or to wait till s-off comes out

on the instructions #9 "turn on phone using the volume button and power button"...is it volume up or down? I used volume down and went to the bootloader said checking files and then did nothing

Yes - working now - too embarrassed to tell you why...lol. Just opened it and making a nandroid.
Question - just curious - why 5.0.2.6 vs 5.0.2.0 (which flashes from internal as well as external SD)?

I have a sony Live with walkman, i just bougth it. My question is, is it worth to unlock the bootloader? what does unlocking the bootloader actually does? And last how do you do it? :silly: Thanks in advance
with booloader unlocked you can put a custon kernel, for unlocked bootloader, search on this thread:Tutorials | Firmware | FAQ | First Aid

It allows you to put custom roms and custom kernels. It also voids your warranty.
If you phone is sim/network locked (in service menu it'll say something like: "Bootloader unlock allowed: No"), then you cant unlock bootloader unless you pay someone to unlock it with network unlock codes. Afterwards you can unlock it via offical (SE) or test-point method.
yes. subforums you try to check on development. there are many tutorials to unlock and root

Yes it is worth unlocking the bootloader. With an unlocked bootloader you can do almost anything with your phone.

Well that depends, it might have been worth for you, but for someone who likes stock rom and has no need or will to change it with custom rom (except few tweeks that can be done with root), it's probably best to keep it locked. I look at it as a pretty subjective thing. If losing warranty is not an issue and you want to go that extra mile, sure, unlock it.
Hello. I'm wondering if anyone's managed to unlock the bootloader on a Sony Xperia S / Firmware ICS 6.1.A.0.453 where in the service settings it says bootloader unlock not allowed on a locked phone? I've seen lots of guides on doing this with a phone with GB and early versions of ICS but no guides with the above firmware? Many thanks in advance.

You can't unlock bootloader if it's locked to carrier. Not even on a gb.
Ok Many thanks for that. So if I get the phone unlocked in the normal way from my carrier - will that also give me the option to unlock the bootloader as well? Many thanks again.

I think that it depends of your carrier.
Ok - many thanks again!
Ok my phone is now sim unlocked but its still bootloader locked and my carrier O2 do not support the unlocking of the bootloader. Is there any unofficial method I can use (even paid) to unlock the bootloader?
Yeah the O2 are the worst by that question,definitely.But try to make a pressure on them saying if it is not stated in the cobtract than they can **** themselves and unlock or you want your money back!

Once your phone is sim unlocked it will stay that way and if you perform a bootloader unlock it wont get locked again.
