Hmm well i did that to update my phone via update service and it worked. But btw how do you know when ur phone is unlocked or not?
could you explain a little bit on how you unlock bootloader? if you use test point method just use s1 tool and click restore. but if use official way (sony website) then use flashtool with files names "xperia relock bootloder" or something i cant remember so far it managed to relock the bootloader.
I buy last month phone and unlock with official method before couple days. I have that file,flesh via fleshtool but when is done,on fleshtool writhe that -phone will reboot-,but nothing is happaned. I manualy turn on the phone and try to update via seus and then get error that phon isnt recognized
Sent from my ST15i using xda app-developers app
Relocking Bootloader is useless,it wont get your warranty back (Well you can get it back when using test point)
Official Method has your Phone IMEI stored on SONY database so when you go to service center they will check if your IMEI is already Unlocked or not

Hmmm...go to dialer and press *#*#7378423#*#* then go to service info/configuration....look at rooting status, it will show if you have unlock bootloader or not....that is the proof you need if you did relock it successfully or not.....

Did you use the sim lock checking tool?
You need to get the device unlocked properly for it to work. There are plenty of warnings about this in every bootloader unlock thread.

After unlocking you may need to reflash your baseband again.

If I am not mistaken, and correct me if I'm wrong. But the laser said that if you have used any 3rd party unlocking, you will lose your radio signal. You will have to pay to have your sim card unlocked again from the lasers site before it will work again.

please can anyone help me to unlock my boot loader step by step in an easy way either with the latest flash tool or any other tool ?
please anyone knew help us with a step by step explanation .
Thanks,
there is one One touch tool to unlock bootloader but the thing is u need to be on 2.1 then it can unlock bootloader easily !! if u can flash 2.1 then search for the one touch tool i dont remember the name exactly but u can search the forums for it !!
If you go here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=920746 and download flashtool you can unlock with one click of button. You need to be on stock kernel to do this. or unlock button will be grayed out
Edit: Is your phone sim locked or unlocked? If it is unlocked u need to check with s1tool if you can actually unlock this way (it can break your device). Info for this is here:

No.even 2.3.3 also can unlock bootloader using Flashtool.
Here's the easiest step.
1.Download the latest flashtool.
2.Flash the phone to stock SE 2.3.3 ROM.
3.Root Your Phone
4.Click Plugin & unlock your bootloader.
Thats all.

Search forum for s1tool and follow. Also (not sure if this is accurate or not) type on keypad *#*#service#*#*, go on service info, software info & check s1 boot version it has few numbers then r8a033. If the r Is lower case (like above) then I believe u have unlocked. Even easier after I type all this flash doom kernel for unlock bl if se logo is replaced by dooms boot pic then u unlocked allow

Dude, I have this overheating issue on my xperia mini, and the bootloader is unlocked. So I gave it in the service center, they said that the motherboard has a problem and they are going to replace it . I lost the DRM keys by unlocking the bootloader-
1. Will I get those DRM keys back once my motherboard is replaced?
2. Will the bootloader status be changed to locked again?

for that option to be displayed you need to be on rooted stock rom of sony gb.
For this, u need to click on repair option in pc companion and after u successfully get on gb sony rom u need to root it and then the option to unlock bootloader will b displayed.

Hey,
First of all, google this --> "bootloader unlock - freexperia" with quotes (unfortunately, I can't post links yet).
If you've done it this way and still doesn't work, then I assume there's a problem with your USB drivers or fastboot (try reinstalling).
I want to unlock bootloader, but the risk is my warranty...
I wish wait to expired first
I dont think its driver probl cuz fastboot devices command works.

Well, my friend, I unlocked it on my second month and didn't have the need to use my warranty in any way till now (8+ months)
Of course, it's your choice, but I was fascinated by the fact I could run Jelly Bean on my Neo V thanks to Freexperia Team, and haven't looked back since then!
Then again, I can't tell you what is best for your needs but I can assure you, Sony's warranty (and most smartphone's dealers in general) covers very few issues that might happen in realistic scenarios.

Judging from this, I understand that you got the unlock key from Sony's official website and the last command (fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce oem unlock 0xKEY) fails.
Wild Guess: Any typos? confused "o" with "0" maybe.
Sorry I can't be more helpful, but for me it was harder to flash a rom for the first time than unlocking the bootloader :-/

I would say try again!
Though I got it unlocked in first try !
