I just got my phone back from service. It got it's motherboard replaced. I can't unlock it's bootloader now using flashtool. It says Canceled and device disconected. I tried the newest and the 0.6.8 flashtool version
Am I sentenced to the locked BL forever?

Hi people, I've unlocked the BootLoader following 9Lukas5's instructions (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1254087)
And now I don't have radio anymore.
I checked first with the s1tool and it said "SEMC SIMLOCK CERTIFICATE". I've used the correct bat file and it said that it was unlocked successfully.
It was unlocked because I could install the latest Doom's kernel and Wolf's rom. But I didn't have radio.
I've been searching through the threads looking for answers, but all the methods people suggested, didn't work.
What I've tried: re-locking the bootloader and restauring the phone with seus (still no radio), unlocking again and trying several kernels, basebands and roms (versions 2.1 and 2.3, but still no radio).
Any tips?
Im on the exact same page searched a ton of times this forum and the net and no solution seems to work
Do u know how to check the status of your bootloader?

I don't think so. How do I do that?
Type *#*#7378423#*#*, go to software info, look at your s1boot version (it will be an r and some numbers) if the r is uppercase (R) it is still locked. If it's a lower case r it has been unlocked

It has an R..
So the bootloader isn't unlocked? Then how can I use Doom's kernel?
Solution found thanks to all of you guys.
First, use pc companion from sony to restore the mobile. (easy)
Then enable usb debug in the apps menu and with flash tools root the phone, it will restart.
Then with flashtools install the xrecovery (easy)
Again with flashtools in the plugins menu select unlock bootloader and run. Phone will restart a few times, do not unplug usb cable (i was unplugin after the first reboot) and it shall be done
Is it doomkernel for locked bootloader?

I have radio now. I tried to do what BrixSat said and on the second try it worked
Thanks everyone for your help
i have a similar problem...radio signal of my X10 is so bad and low, when i am at home the signal is 1/4 or 2/4 bar (before was always 3/4 or 4/4).
repair with pc companion or seus did not help me...tried to relock BL, repair with pc companion and unlock BL but the problem still here.
it is antenna problem or software problem?
Hello,
I am using a X10 Mini Pro (u20i). I am having problems with my mobile earphone, and since I checked forums and asked SE technical service and they told me that I had to send it because it was a hardware problem.
My mobile is still in the period of warranty, but I rooted it, installed recovery, unlocked bootloader and installed a kernel.
I have SEUS, and I know that I can "repair" my phone to return it to fabric settings, like taking out the root or the kernel.
The problem comes with the bootloader. I know there is an option to relock the bootloader, but I haven't still considered that option.
I was wondering if somebody could tell me if with the use of SEUS the bootloader gets locked again,
Thanks in advance.
If you do a repair with SEUS or PC Companion it will flash the original kernel and rom, but it won't touch your bootloader.
You have to relock that yourself.
i will help you cause i have been searching it too open it conect your phone to flash mode and press restore..... your bootloader was restored
Relock using se tweaker tool.... Its the best..... Be sure before sending to warranty...that the bootloader is locked and ur device is unrooted....

Hello everyone,i have a big problem.
The first time i've tried to unlock the bootloader (following the guide of this section) i've check with s1Tool,and everithing whas ok.Then i started the flashtool end click to plugin and i've run the bl unlock.The ploblem is that after that action flashtool looks like stuck (because nothing happened) and i close flashtool and unplug the device.The device now works ok,but the option on the flashtool for unlock the bootloader just disappear,i can't unlock the bl anymore .I've checked if the bl was unlocked with s1Tool and it says it is locked.
What can i do now to unlock the bl?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I think something might have messed up with kernel or rom.
If you want to unlock I suggest you to go to stock 2.1 or 2.3.3 and the bl unlock plugin should appear again.
Thanks man
Hangs on the Sony logo. Flashed a rom thinking I was BL unlocked, rooted. Turns out not. I can still get into blue or green mode so my i think i need something to flash back to stock. I don't know which or where.
I was getting conflicting info from fastboot and flashtool+ EMMA. Went through the BL unlock code via Fastboot, it failed because already unlocked it says. Then I rooted. EMMA immediately flagged it as being locked. I ended up flashing a CM via flashtool.

Oh F me, i just found out. Do you see something out of place in the bold?
Here I was wondering why the phone is on stock ics and yet in development its 2.1 stock customed to ics. I had an Xperia Mini thinking it was an X10 Mini.
