Xperia S hard locked - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

My Xperia S gets Hard Locked as My Bro enters Wrong Network unlock code so many times...anyone help me i also purchase an unlock code for it but it doesnt work it says "couldnt unlock network"...HELP ME PLEASE:crying::crying::crying:

I'm not really sure as it has never happened to me, but I just found a thread on the Arc S forum where someone has the same problem. What they suggest is that, is your bootloader can be unlocked, then you can do that and that way it will not be hardlocked anymore. However... if you needed to use an unlock code in the first place, then you probably can't. In that case, i think you're out of look, sorry .

Can i do the sim unlock via davinci after i've unlocked my bootloader? - Yes(ish)

I unlocked my X10 bootloader when it was released, since then i've realised I still had credits in my davinci account, so I thought I'd have a crack at sim unlocking it.
The question I have is, will this brick my device if flash the 2.1 software back, perform the unlock and then flash back to cm7?
Maybe no-one has tried it yet, but I'm looking for a sensible answer with some evidence to back it up.
Cheers ppl

OK, So yes I can sim unlock it with davinci, But now I'm back to having a locked bootloader which is probably because it rewrote s1_boot in doing the sim unlock.
Soooo, now I can use another network sim which is my main priority as i just switched contracts.
But I'd like to have an unlocked bootloader so i'm not crippled and can go back to FXP and not SE GB.
I know I could unlock the bootloader and not have network access but that defeats the object of having it sim unlocked.
Looking back, There are a few things that would make this a lot easier....
Hi!
I had the same problem.
I was able to unlock bootloader and running Linuxdx+GingerDX.
Then i wanted to unlock my phone, did it with davinci app and worked all just fine, but after trying unlock my bootloader again the sime network crashes.
I have tried both choices on my phone both semc unlock and seetool unlock.
The same problem.
Only way to rescue my bricked phone is to make a "new" unlock again.
Now i have paid a unlock a couple of times so i dont dare to try unlock bootloader again.
Well i really like LinuxDX+GingerDX.
I beleuve that i am stock with STOCK kernel and GingerDX until a solution is here...

That's weird.. wotan server unlocks sim lock using the test point, so it was supposed to unlock your phone's bootloader too.. maybe you did something wrong.. xD
any way, check this out:
[Unlock Bootloader]Xperias 2011 unlock for free.
yes, i've been trying omnius-server and S1tool for the last 3h!
im using an home made testpoint.
omnius-server doesnt seem to recognise it, and s1 ends with this error:
qcReceivePacket: can't get packet start

[Q] Sim unlock question

My question is why there is no software that can sim unlock xperia x10, i mean access has been obtained to the bootloader and everything inside, i dont understand why there is no method to sim unlock this cellphone, other android cellphones that are succesfully rooted and hacked their bootloader are super easy to sim unlock just one button press like samsung galaxy so my question is why cant they acess the area where the lock is stored and erase it or replace it with an unlocked register, im really interested in this info, if someone answers me or points me in the right direction it would be really appreciated, im pretty sure there is no method and i want to create one, probably imposibly difficult but i want to try.

I dont have a technical answer to why its not possible but yes the answe is no. Theres no possible way to sim unlock your phone.
Galaxy phone capable of being unlocked already have the unlock code hidden in some file which we dont have.

Oh thanks i didnt know that about the galaxy but i still want a more technical answer about how can we have access to everything from bootloader, kernel, rom everything, so where is the sim lock hiding?

[Q] How to unlock bootloader? Allowed: NO 12w23

Hi people, after searching a lot, i just wanna make sure there is no way to get this done,
My phone has the bootloader locked, the manufacturation date is 12w23 , and the bootloader unlock status allowed: NO
Is there anyway to unlock my bootloader?
Thanks a lot!
Javier
Maybe a guy with medusa box can do it, there is NO online service that can do it, so don't look. You could take out the sim lock on your official provider (might be cheap or expensive) and then unlock by Sony's official method since it'll say "allowed: yes", but even if you do, you probably don't even have fastboot enabled, so you also need to contact Sony and see if they can enable fastboot after you are done with the simlock

Sony Xperia Z1 Compact - Locked Bootloader ???

Hi XDA
I recently acquired a Sony Xperia Z1 Compact, but it seems that the bootloader cannot be unlocked (even after grabbing the code from Sony)
it says that the command isn't allowed, then I saw a post on a forum saying that not every bootloader can be unlocked.
I was wondering, since I have a unlockable* bootloader (which I assume there are ways to unlock it, because lets face it.. is there anything out there thats "locked" and hasn't been cracked into?
Anywho.
I have been to EVERY single "Phone repair / unlock" shop in my town, and none of them know what a bootloader is. So I decided to see if anyone here has managed to unlock their locked* bootloader.
If anyone can shed any light on this, it would be great.
Thank you.

It keeps saying I need to unlock the bootloader but it says when I try
"FAILED (remote: Command not allowed)"
This is what I mean.. I can't unlock my bootloader.
Unless I'm missing something?
Anyone?
Have you tried with SONY?
Perhaps the easier solution is to start from SONY itself....

Guys.. it says "Bootloader unlock allowed: No"
Which means I can't use an official way to unlock the bootloader, what I need to know is if theres a different way I can unlock the bootloader. By flashing firmware, a different bootloader or any special utility to unlock the bootloader. Thanks

Anyone able to shed light on this? I really don't wanna have to sell the phone due to the bootloader being locked..
Especially not after scoring 43,000 in Antutu
are there such thing as a custom FTF file I could flash with a locked bootloader?
