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...

[Q] Help with unlocking bootloader on Live (WT19i)

I have been trying for two days now to unlock the bootloader on a friend's Live with Walkman (Wt19i) with little success.
The phone came with firmware 4.0.2.A.0.58 and is branded so in the *#*#7378423#*#* /Service info/Configuration menu, the rooting status is :
Bootloader unlock allowed: No
Rooting was easy, thanks DoomLord.
Next is unlock bootloader. I tried to do this via the s1tool method because the official Sony method was a no-go because of branding.
The s1tool method seemed like it would work but then I read that it also doesn't work on branded phones.
I attempted it anyway - the result was no change whatsoever in the phone's bootloader status.
Can I unlock the bootloader without having to pay someone to do it?
The s1tool method might work even if the phone is branded but if you want to unlock the boot loader to flash custom kernels and roms you will need to enter to fast boot mode which is disabled in all the branded phones that I know of, you can try to enter the phone in fastboot mode turning it of and connecting the USB cable to the PC and the phone holding down the volume up key, if the notification led turn on blue then you can flash custom kernels and rooms once the bootloader is unlocked if not then you will need to pay to unlock it if that is what you or your friend wants.
Hope it's helpful!!
Thanks for your reply, very helpful indeed.
I will see if I can boot into that mode when I get back home and at least then I'll know for sure.
It would be ever-so-nice if I could unlock this for her without having to pay money for it. (She won it in a competition that she only entered because her iPhone died recently - but the Live WT19i is locked to the wrong network)

Well actually for a sim unlock at this moment you will need to pay for, there's no way to unlock the sim for free. Unlocking the bootloader it's a different matter than the sim. I didn't mention it because you were asking about the boot loader sorry.
And I stupidly assumed unlocking the bootloader would allow me to unlock the SIM lock/branding.
Thanks again for the help, I'll just tell her she has to pony up the dough if she wants to use it on her network.

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] Is my bootloader unlocked or not.....unsure

Hi, i'm confused, i flashed my xperia x10i with x10_2.3.3_stock-with-xrecovery-v3.ftf, when i boot up,i get the custom logo as seen on youtube. When i dial the code in to get the system settings menu up, there is no sign of bootloader info,according to SE web site if this is'nt present then it can't be unlocked. Also, i can still use TrackID.
So, am i locked or unlocked ? ......Anyone ?......Please.
Problem solved,thanx to this post

[Q] Xperia P - Bootloader unlock in NOT ALLOWED

Hi,
In first, sorry for bad Eng! I have a Xperia from my friend. He wanted to install better ROM on his phone. As i read, bootloader in different mobile operators is permanently locked... That was on this phone from T-Mobile (im from Poland). But I took the directions on the website of Sony and took the unlock code. When I entered it, as they posted it in their site, I saw that BL is UNLOCKED.
And now I have a question: Can I brick phone if I will start to install ROM? Phone got root access, unlocked simlock (it was when I was unlocking bootloader), installed CWM...
Thanks a lot for any help!

You simply have an unlocked device... What could happen? My friend also has Xperia P from t-Mobile and I checked, he has no simlock or other restrictions. I guess, if you follow advices in the topics about flashing etc. your device won't get hurt.
mine Too
i have a xperia p LT22i
with bootloader unlock NOT ALLOWED
And No sim-lock
I asked Sony's suppport team to do something to make my phone Unlockable
Right now you can't do anything because the fastboot mode is not working
you can't flash a custom kernel
you can't unlock the boot loader
because the fastboot is disabled
like my F** Xperia P
