Did you unlock (official way at unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com) or patch (test point method) the bootloader?
Both ways, bootloader can be restored/relocked. I recently relocked mine, getting updates also.

Open the SE Tool and click Restore to relock the bootloader. Then you should be able to get the updates, if you couldn't earlier.
I used flashtool to unlockbootloader ,in the add on menu of flashtool .its work and if want to relock its already file on it.

I lost DRM keys and (bootloader unlock allowed:yes) in service menu
But the bootloader is unlocked in real
I hope i benefit you and some one else

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?

I can't answer that. You will get your answer if you get your phone back.
To previous post - Way too small photo, can't see. Neither can I see that option in Flashtool 0.7.1.0 on my PC.

If you mobile get bricked, lock bootloader again
Is is possible to root Sola without unlocking bootloader like the 2010-11 Xperia phones? I've installed Flashtool v0.9.6.0. It does support Sola but the rooting fails. I've the "Auto Connect in MSC" option enabled, but the rooting process still fails.
Following is the log from Flashtool. Need help.

Will the warranty void if we root the phone? even without unlocking the bootloader..?

Warranty is void when you do something irreversible. Rooting is usually reversible. Unlocking bootloader is generally irreversible. For our phones, I'm not sure if unlocking bootloader is permanent or not. But rooted Sola can mostly be unrooted. I've rooted my phone without much thought btw.
why not you try this

read that. Everything regarding bootloader unlocking should be there remember, you MUST be on stock 2.3.3 rom to unlock bootloader. The official Sony Ericsson rom, not any stock-based rom..
In s1tool it says not recognized simlock certificate... my phone is sim-unlocked. can i unlock my bootloader without a brick? and i have fastboot mode and bootloader unlock allowed: yes...
will it restore the simlock?

To unlock your bootloader that says "Bootloader unlock allowed:yes", go to the official Sony site for get bootloader's codes, my recommendation is download last version of FlashTool and when you connect your device in flash mode (with phone off push "Back" button and plug usb cable) then you have a "Plugins" tab, go there and select "unlock bootloader" it shows you a window where you put your IMEI and the bootloader unlock code that you get of Sony official site, and flash tool will do the work for you.
If your bootloader says "Bootloades unlock allowed:no" and you have SIM lock, you can try http://www.fastgsm.com that offers now at cheapest prices for Xperia Neo SIM Unlocking and bootloader unlock in the same price, the unlock software is fully compatible with Windows 8.
I hope I helped, Good luck!!
it could not！

I have a x10 running 2.3.3 official firmware.
I have rooted it.
So have I unlocked the bootloader?
If no,how to unlock it??
Sent from my X10i using xda premium
Rooting is not part of unlocking bootloader. Check first by dialing *#*#7378523#*#* and if bootloader says YES then you can unlock it. But if you are locked in a specific carrier then you need to unlock your sim first then proceed to unlocking bootloader. Check the development thread and look for proper bypass for bootloader unlocking.
