I was wondering is there an easy application to Unlock my Bootloader of my x10. ?If you know any can you lead me to it? 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 !!
Well if I unlock my BL, will it be permanently unlocked? Or can I lock it back again?
just for confirmation, is it still after UBL the kernel needed to be flash via flashtool and cant be flash through recovery?
I did knot Unlock my BL yet ....can i Unlock using the new Flash Tools v0.5.30 ??
Yes use flashtool if u can't press the button to unlock it because you don't meet the requirements. (think u need stock kernel)
Edit: yeah u can re-lock bl

ya u cant flash kernel via xrec....only flashtool
Yeah that is true you can also use seus or pc companion to get back to stock kernel

yes now you have unlocked bootloader even if you flash any rom
you're good to go
You see, firmware and boot-loaders are two different things all together, once you've unlocked a boot-loader it's "unlocked" even if you install Stock Firmwares. There is a way to lock the boot-loader back again though, which requires a different process all together !!
Hi !
I have an Xperia Mini Pro (sk17i) and i can't unlock the bootloader is vodafone. I searched custom roms with stock kernel and there are none.
Why there are no roms with stock kernel? It's possible?
Thanks !
Why can't you unlock bootloader? Which unlock method did you try (the official one or the testpoint version)?
U can use UXP NXT room, this for stock rom with xperia s taste...
No need unlock bootloader, just root and flash with cwm

Branded phones cannot have unlocked bootloader at all, both methods will not work.

This is some Xperia mod, mostly edits only the visual part. Does not require bootloader unlock.
Might be more, only some stock-based ROMs can run with stock kernel.
you can unlock bootloader on branded phones with test point, i did it with mine unfortunately it did no good because due to a sim lock restriction i had no access to fastboot mode so i had to completely unlock mi phone using setool (paid tool) or you can also use omnius (paid tool).

Yes, only via paid methods can bootloader be unlocked right now.
Most of the custom ROMs need seperate kernel... However u cn try UXP NXT Rom... I think it uses the stock kernel

Try to ask your nearest phone service and ask them to unlock your bootloader
Well,I adviced you to NOT unlock your bootloader as it is hard to relock it back (especially if you want to receive official ICS by sony)

As far as I know only stock roms can be instaled w/o bootloader unlocked :/

samsung phones are much much much better in this case!!;9
Bootloader can be unlocked only 2 ways. Service shops will likely ask money. Relocking is actually easier than unlocking.
There is only one ROM that doesn't require unlocked bootloader, Xperia UXP NXT.

I got lucky I could unlock it for free via Omnius it was a mess tho >.< but I'm very happy with the results
What's omnius
??
It's like wotan server, allows you to unlock your bootloader, flash stock roms I think and check and repair your phone, it works for SE and Samsung if I'm not wrong :$

You can check in here: http://www.omnius-server.com/

You can try to unlock your bootloader by downloading the flashtool and image created by quanghut. Try to search the link, I cant post links yet, I used that to unlock my bootloader.

You cannot unlock bootloader via Flashtool or any image files.
Bootloader is done via Official method or test point method. Quagnhut's(sorry if misspelled) program also uses official SE method.

Hi,i got unlocked bootloader and how to update to ics using pc companion?
I hear that relock bootloader dosnt work and you cant get official rom after unlock bootloader
wysłane z commodore64
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.

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
