I unlocked the bootloader of my XPS but now when i tried repairing it through the SUS or SPCC it gives an error "it can't be updated because it has custom software". Is there any way of relocking the bootloader of the XPS
Thank you

Just flash updates with FlashTool if that's all you want

Hi guys,
Sorry, I have some questions...
- How method to re-lock Bootloader on Xperia Neo?
- I know that by re-lock Bootloader would not be able to restore DRM, but after relock, Can i update firmware from/via SEUS or PC Companion?
Thank's very much

I am using a Xperia tipo dual and I have already unlocked my bootloader to gain root access from bin4ry, thank him so much :good:
The problem is that I have deleted some system apps without backing up them so I think I should use sony companion software or SUS to repair.
As far as I know, updating firmware OTA on an unlocked one will brick it, so does using SONY Companion or Sony Update Service brick unlocked-bootloader phones if I try to repair and create a ftf?
Thank you in advance.
And can someone upload a Xperia Tipo Dual ftf for me please?

Nope it won't brick the phone but on the other hand you can't update /repair either cause of the unlocked bootloader and the root...
You will get "modified software error" on both SEUS & PC Companion

Flash it with Flashtool and the firmware ftf file. Also you don't need an unlocked bootloader to root with bin4ry's method.

well, with Bin4ry's method, I tried three times with locked tipo dual and it did not work, then unlocked bootloader and tried again, it worked
Get the ftf file from somewhere around here..i am sure someone uploaded it.. Flash it worth flashtools...
And yes using SUS and pc companion will brick your device if it is boootloader unlocked..

Yup it's possible in two ways :-
1) Just flash the stock firmware with flashtool available in this forum for your device...
2) If you dont find the stock firmware then "relock bootloader" and repair your device with SEUS or PC Companion by doing this your both wishes wil be done to hv stock firmware and update through PC companion

Hey everybody, I just have a question about the bootloader, can I flash firmwares thats in a ftf or using update service when I have a Xperia U with unlocked bootloader using the sony method? Or do they just talk about when you update your phone using the update center app on your phone? Im just curius cuz I dont want to brick my new phone.
You can use flashtool, but NOT SUS or PC Companion. If you update with sus/pcc u will brick.

Ok, can you provide me with some FTFs?
You can find stock rom ftf's in ROM development section
btw you can always relock your bootloader if you want to update via SEUS

Hi,
I had a neo V with a bootloader unlocked via wotan.
I neet to repair it an SAT changed my phone...
now I have a neo V 12w51, and I can't unlock the bootloader via wotan.
Somebody can tell me how I can unlock the bootloader with a new neo v???
I have the "unlock bootloader allowed= NO"
Thanks
Unfortunatelly in your case you can't unlock your bootloader for free. You must chose some service and paid them for this...
I don't have any problem to pay.
But via wotan I can't do it because only works with 2011 phones.
somebody know how I can unlock it with a new board version (12w51)???

Since your phone says unlock bootloader allowed = No you may not be able to unlock it. Nd even if you can unlock the bootloader the only way is to do it via official sony site because your phone is 12w51.

Good for you. But as far as I know it is not possible to unlock the bootloader for devices later than 12w14. Even I could not unlock using testpoint method. My device is 12w17.

you can unlock via official, go to web sony and get security code.

The link you have is the correct link. And as far as I know 2011 devices means the series of devices and not the year of manufacturing. Just follow the steps given on the site.

But in this link says:
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.
My phone says: NO
.... I will try?

Since it says NO you can't unlock it officially try some other method. Just search how you can do it.

You need to lock your bootloader then go to Sony Service Center.

My bootloader is already locked,i want to unlock it but i get stuck at 13th step...will they have my bootloader unlocked?(will they unlock the bootloader for me/)
I don't think so as unblocked bootloader voids the warranty.
It's a procedure that you have to make alone.
