i have looked round for the answer myself, there seems to be alot of threads on this, all of them say no you can not unlock it unless using a payed method such as wotanserver also you most probably will need to sim unlock first, i think that then changes the status, well thats what i have read has happened to some, and a little something else the fw is the number such as 2.3.4 or 4.0.4, and the build number is the 4.1.b.431.

If you unlock it for any network using wotanserver it will unlock the bootloader aswell, I used them and it was fairly easy.

Yes i know you told me earlier in a pm,
but does anyone now how you unlock network with setool?
x10 stand not in the list, only very old phones.
actually no. you dont have to unlock your phone carrier. i unlocked my bootloader without unlocking the phone carrier. there is a tool to check if you are eligible for unlocking your bootloader
You do NOT need to use setool to unlock your carrier before unlocking bootloader!
I was sim locked to vodafone (And never used setool) and I have unlocked my bootloader by following the steps posted in this thread with the kernel upgrade/downgrade method.
If you have never unlocked the sim then you can use the tool posted the_laser to unlock the bootloader.
Ok thanks mates

Whatever is better for you. Both ways work, if you follow the instructions properly.
Do some researching, read and learn and decide then.

Try installing custom kernel, if it succeeds, then bootloader is unlocked.

No, thats not true. I "unlocked" my BL with S1tool and says bootloader unlock allowed: yes . But is unlocked already.
If is unlocked with oficial method i think it says: rooted. Correct me if im wrong
Anyway. Try to flash custom kernel maybe is already unlocked

If you patched your bootloader with S1 Tool, then it says Bootloader Unlock Allowed: Yes.

Isn't it for only debranding and flashing mobiles.As written on their site.
After using it will I be able to use all simcard.as they say
"unlocking is NOT supported by WotanClient software!"
Maybe they have changed terms or something, it worked on smokerman. Try to send PM on how he did to unlock network on his unit.

Flash 0.58 firmware using flashtool,root it using doomlord method
XDA Premium sent this message from owner of Sk17i
after the method you say it will allow me to unlock bootloader?
Unlocking bootloader can only be done via paid method, as your fastboot is disabled(Bootloader Unlock Allowed: No).

You said you want to root in your post right?So,no need to unlock bootloader in order to root it
EDIT : If you want to unlock bootloader,unlock it using testpoint and you're done (fix my post if I got something wrong/misleading)

Can I unlock?

Hey everyone
I need a quick phone to last me a few months till my upgrade and the Neo V seems like a good deal, brand new for £70.
Now I never buy an android phone unless the bootloader can be unlocked. I understand that phones made after 12w14 cannot be unlocked or something? If the phone is made after 12w14 is there really no way to unlock it? It will be sim locked and I know it's necessary to unlock it to allow fastboot.
Basically can phones made after 12w14 be sim and bootloader unlocked?
Thanks

If you buy your phone brand new from an 'open' store than your phone should be sim unlocked.
send from my mt11i with cm10 unofficially (TheDarkDefender build) on fusion kernel 4.5
If you want to know whether you can unlock your phone or not, here is an excerpt from Sony's forum.
1.First, you should confirm that it is possible to unlock the boot loader of your phone by checking the service menu. In your phone, open the dialler and enter *#*#7378423#*#* to access the service menu.
2.In your phone, tap Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status. If Bootloader unlock allowed says Yes, then you can continue with the next step. If it says No, or if the status is missing, your device cannot be unlocked.

Thanks but the phone will almost certainly be locked to T-Mobile.
What I need to know is, if the manufacturing date is past 12w14 is there a way for me to sim unlock and then unlock the boot loader ?

If I'm not mistaken, there is but you've to pay for it as your status says :No
You may use SeTool2
Or Wotanclient for doing so

JB for Locked Bootloader - Xperia U

No, there is no way to flash JB on locked BL.
You can unlock the bootloader using Sony official tool/website for unlocking bl
http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com
Before unlocking you can backup your TA partition, in case you wanted to give the phone to warranty. Later you can restore it - phone will be locked again and they will not know it was unlocked.

I dont think you should feel sad because of that. My bl can be unlocked, but after using custom kernel for 2days my phone became unusuable dur to extreme lags. That's why i stay with stock ROMS. They are good enough .
