Hi,
I have a Sony Xperia U locked to O2(UK). Under Service Info I see it says "Bootloader Unlock Allowed: No".
Does this mean the phone cannot be unlocked from O2?
You should ask O2 for unlock code. No other way afaik.

Odp: [Q] Xperia U: Bootloader Unlock allowed: No
No. You can't unlock your BL. O2 also can't do that because you have simlock on their network. Sorry.

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.

but my was 12w42 and i have unlocked it using test point method
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.

try this, I think this is the easiest and the safest way to unlock your bootloader, but you will lose your DRM keys.
I think the official method from sony doesn't allow for a relock ..you should try the testpoint method..I unlocked my lww using testpoint method...it's a bit risky if not performed carefully ..
Never thought of relockin it though...why would u relock anyway:-/?

Official method does allow relock
See someguyfromhell's guide.
We dont get DRM back though

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.
