My story is that I had a xperia x8 to make s1tool Identify came with this "SEMC SIMLOCK CERTIFICATE" and the battery is 11 w25 successfully unlock the bootloader using "msm7227_semc.exe".
I had custom kernel, custom rom android 2.3 until a technician take to release him for the two companies of my country, and actually released it flashing as I leave the factory.
Now to make a sale s1tool Identify with this

Try to unlock the bootloader in the same way that the first time with "msm7227_semc.exe" died completely and even take technical and revived him from ayi not tried more.
Without in bariums However lei in forums and also in this that if he was released with setool2 devo use this "msm7227_setool2.exe" and not this "msm7227_semc.exe". Maybe that's why? Died?
Looking for more information read that if you leave this message "NOT RECOGNIZED SIMLOCK CERTIFICATE" in no way attempting Devia, But I also read in a forum that if came Indonesian "NOT RECOGNIZED SIMLOCK CERTIFICATE" and nothing came devia to use this "msm7227_setool2. exe "
I'm about to try again with "msm7227_setool2.exe" but first wanted to consult with you to clear up doubts me ... any comments are welcome ... THANKS
respond with complete words because my English is too poor and I have to use translators ... thanks

Hi all,
surely most of us know that SE's newer Xperias have official unlocking instructions. I just went to the website anyway and poked around;
http://unlockbootloader.sonyericsson.com/instructions
I've an X10 Mini by the way. I followed the instructions, SE asked for my IMEI in return for a code to unlock my device, and I fully expected to get rejected at this point and nope, I got a code unique to my device. I can go ahead and TRY to unlock, and I'm not sure what could go wrong now...but the site is, naturally FULL of warnings against noobs who may destroy their device. Anyone know what are the chances of a brick if I do as they say in the instructions? It's really simple-download the Andorid SDK, enter a command, enter a code unique to my device and boom...boom to unlock, or as I'm afraid -boom to brick it...These instructions may OFFICIALLY be for particular newer SE devices, but they did after all give a code unique to my phone which may make it work, no? UNLESS, they changed something in the bootloader of the newer Xperias, hence mine might not work.
Any ideas?
This thread shows up every week, you can give them a nokia imei and they'll still give you a code, won't do anything tho.
So if entering an IMEI-based code doesn't change anything, does that mean it's a bootloader issue? Meaning that the older and newer Xperias do have some differences between the bootloaders which defines what's possible? Or something else?
This may of course come to nothing. It was this paragraph in particular that got me wondering. Also, will the code just not work, or could it brick the device?
"The only way to determine if you can unlock the boot loader for your phone is to connect your phone to the Fastboot tool in the Android™ SDK. If your phone can connect to Fastboot, the boot loader can be unlocked."

We cannot enter Fastboot mode on the mini/minipro. So we cannot unlock the bootloader with their "official" method.
Thanks mate, that clears that up!
he guys what is the unoffical way to unlock my phone
Unlocking is a different thing altogether...
when I got my X10 Mini it was so new that most places didn't know what to do with it. I did find a shop I know and trust and got it unlocked there. I have no idea how it is with doing it yourself. The older SEs yeah, Xperias, I've no experience.
Hi xda members,
first of all i've read through tons of post, searched google for an hour. Now I hope for your help. I own a "Sony Ericcson Xperia Mini Pro" (model number SK17i) running Android 2.3.3 (Kernel 2.6.32.8-perf, build number 4.0.A.2.335). It's branded by Orange Austria. I'm looking for a way to root it, but all I could find doesn't help.So far i've read the thread on rooting my phone and followed the guide mentioned there. That doesn't work as planned.
The problem seems to be the branding. Fastboot won't recognize my device since I'm not able to unlock the boot loader. The phone just goes to normal charging mode, when I press [volume up] while connecting the usb cable.
Hence my question: Is there a workaround to unlock the bootloader or an alternative way of rooting? I looked and found solutions for older Xperia phones with brandings and tried what I could. No success.
I would appreciate any help. Just point me into the right direction. Thanks!
Edit: So I found a post on unlocking the bootloader using the device's testpoint. According to one post he succeded in unlocking his orange branded phone. Unforunately some of the information there 404 so I can't reproduce that. Plz help!
Edit2: Now I'm a step futher. Problem now is that s1tool dies after the disconnect testpoint step. Any suggestions?
So this is where I'm stuck:
imageshack . us/photo/my-images/829/freezeu.png/
Weird URL due to new users not allowed to post outside links. I removed the testpoint and waited. Am I supposed to do something else? At one go I tried the [volume down] stuff with and without connected battery. That didn't help.
So for branded phones with *#*#7378423#*#* (service) -> "Service Info"-> "Configuration" -> "Bootloader unlock allowed: No" there is now way to unlock the bootloader?
I run wotanserver on my Ray with a carrier locked bootloader hoping i got an unlocked one (dont care about SIM lock), but after booting the recently flashed rom, i checked the service tool and it's still locked! and not allowing me to unlock it!
any ideas?

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

Hi, I came from X8 section so I dont really know how things work around here in X10MP section. My problem is, how safe it is to unlock my bootloader because one of my X8 has been bricked because of it, what i mean is hard bricked that is not recoverable by home remedies, it needs JTAG and I have paid alot for it. So I am afraid and sensitive when it comes to Bootloader unlocking, I read the faq's, sticky, and guide here and use search, but no luck. Im kinda annoyed that no one confirms or warns if it is safe or not in FAQ/Stickies, when I first unlock my first x8 it worked out well so I did not bother unlocking my 2nd x8, unfortunately it did bricked(hard). The X10MP that I have is 12w17 MFC, so is it safe? it is past 11w29, so to say in X8 it is not safe IDK in X10MP. Thanks in advance.
EDIT1: I Fiddled abit in this phone, IDK if this is the confirmatory that were looking for, this is what i found:
BTW-Im on stock rom and stock kernel so i have this service mode or something like that
1. Enter *#*#7378423#*#* in the dialer then call
2. Go to Service info
3. Go to Configuration
4. At the lower most entry, there is something that says:
-Rooting Status:
Bootloader unlock allowed: Yes
Is this the answer that we need? or it is all in MFC date? my X10MP is 12w17.
EDIT2: I guess, I did answer my question, the confirmatory is this http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/
The supporting details is EDIT1, BTW thanks for nothing
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 .
