I think, you have locked boot loader & stock kernel ?
and that rom required unlocked boot loader & V3 kernel !

i have just bought new phone don't want to loose warranty as early as possible may be later i may dare to unlock it
i love developers who makes world look better place.. i am frequent visitor of xda from my first windows mobile since 3-4years ..
but i had very bad experience with z71 android handset which gave me lot of pain but i made full use of warranty period because there was no unlocking ..! just flashing lots of custom roms ..
but xperia is different i think i have to gain more confidence to start flashing.. because there will be no warranty once unlocked...
When you feel confident, you can Unlock you device by any method you prefer, follow the guide by following link,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1409269
P.S, using official method to unlock the boot loader, you will void your warranty, but using XDA method you will have option to relock the boot loader again
Hope, this will help

you're welcome,
that means you are qualify to unlock your boot loader,
its not Pre-Unlocked !
if it shows No, that means you cannot unlock boot loader due to Manufacturer restrictions.
invoices presone
my phone is already rooted can i oerclock by setcpu without unlocking or do sommething etc
I think, overclocking need other then stock Kernel, check Kernels thread, which suit your overclocking need.
Hi please suggest iam half NOOB HERE may be full. locked bootloader
i have seen many threads some gives warning that only for Unlocked bootloaders some don't . in that scenario half NOOBS ARE CONFUSED
and give a try to flash things which is not clear and get stucked
these are my some questions which may help me and other noobs..
please kind mods need help
1) can custom kernels are possible to flash on locked bootloader ?
2) super_stock_boot_v3.img- can this flash via fastboot on locked bootloader ?
3) there are some tweaked stock rom and kernels- (example :cyclops LIKE THIS
thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1719973
can this also flashed on locked bootloader
Everybody are noob at 1st try, nobody is professional out of box !
you just need to read all the related stuff and pay attention.
let me try to answer your questions with the best of my knowledge,
1- Custom kernels or any kernel cannot install on locked boot loader, actually there's only one reason to unlock the boot loader, and that is to install the custom kernel.
2- super_stock_boot_v3.img is kernel & so it required unlocked boot loader.
3- you can flash some Roms on Locked boot loader, which don't required custom kernels, & can work on Stock kernels, but Roms which required Custom kernels cannot flashed on locked boot loader.
thank you ...
that was very helpful and useful ..:good:
so i have to unlock the bootloader to flash any kernel or custom roms..

Unofficial way, with s1tool.
Is your phone sim-locked, locked on 1 network?

Really sorry for posting new thread, but this forum is so messy and this phone too.
First of all I have an Xperia Arc S with unlocked bootloader and a custom ROM and Kernel so I'm no noob.
My friend has an Xperia Mini with framework .431 and he would like an AOSP looking ROM that doesn't require unlocked bootloader and custom kernel.
We've been looking around and found Real ICS and AOSP ROM. Do you know any other nice AOSP looking ROMs for locked bootloader?
I also found DragonClawsAreSharp's guide on how to root stock .431 firmware but I still don't really understand.
So I was just wondering if anyone could just give an easy to understand, step to step guide on how to root, install CWM and flash a custom ROM without unlocking bootloader.
It would be really appreciated
DragonClaw's guide is one of the most comprehensive guide that you can follow in rooting a locked BL phone. There is even screen shots.
Or you can try SomeGuy's guide.
RealICS can be flashed on a locked BL, it is also one of the most used here.

Google "android safestrap", it should point you in the right direction. What are GSM ROMS?
