First, you should confirm that it is possible to unlock the boot loader of your device by checking the service menu. In your device, open the dialler and enter *#*#7378423#*#* to access the service menu. If you have a tablet, click here to learn how access the service menu.
In your device, tap Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status. If Bootloader unlock allowed says Yes, then you can continue with the next step. If it says No, or if the status is missing, your device cannot be unlocked.

2 - Where y find a version ICS ? Stable and no bug?
Sorry I'm new here and me no talk so god english ! Tanks

took from sony bl unlock site:
-open the dialler and enter *#*#7378423#*#*
-tap Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status. If Bootloader unlock allowed says Yes, then you can continue with the next step. If it says No, or if the status is missing, your device cannot be unlocked. maybe then u can use the testpoint method, nut i have no xperience with this... so better you read carefully the ''unlock by testpoint method'' thread found in general forum

i guess ur bootloader is not unlocked .... anyway kernl flash by fastboot should be no problem.. (if u really unlocked)
did u type in that code into dialer & looked if u are bootloader unlock allowed??? (this is the first thing u should do instead asking if it has sth to do with simlock, lol)
and press the thx button instead saying it :3

But s1tool showed that I have unlocked the bootloader, or may be it's because my operator blocks the fastboot?
Guys, the guy in the shop told me that the simlock unlock, unlock fastboot. Is this true?
Hi Guys,
My Xperia P is one of that specials one that can´t be bootloader unlock. I already make the process:

and of course is NO.

Sony Xperia M4 Aqua (E2303) Root Guide
For devices with LOCKED BOOTLOADER (Bootloader unlock allowed: No)
I searched for days, weeks and months to find a way to root my Xperia M4 Aqua E2303 phone without any luck at all.
The problem is that every guide I could find means having to first unlock your bootloader before being able to root.
Dialling *#*#7378423#*#* will give you the 'Service Info' menu, and tapping 'Configuration' will give you more information.
Under 'Rooting Status' you will see Bootloader unlock allowed: No. If this is not the case, then I don't know if this guide will help you. However, if this IS the case, then the below allowed me to root my device.
My device info:
Android Version: 5.0 Lollipop
Kernel Version: 3.10.49
Build Number: 26.1.A.3.111
Disclaimer: I will not accept any responsibility for your device. You are using this guide and any linked files AT YOUR OWN RISK. Due to Bootloader being locked, this guide doesn't include flashing the recovery! I am sharing this in the hope that it will help someone having the same problems I did.
So, here we go.
1) Dial *#*#7378423#*#* then tap 'Configuration' then look under 'Rooting Status'. If it says 'Bootloader unlock allowed: No' then go to step 2.
2) Download the kit at http://s000.tinyupload.com/?file_id=28364310233527948260
3) Unzip the kit. Make sure you have installed your Xperia M4's drivers including fastboot and ADB. These are also included in the kit you have just downloaded if you do not already have them.
4) Turn on your phone. Go to 'Settings' then go to 'About Phone'. Keep tapping on 'Build number' and you will unlock developer options.
5) Go to 'Settings' then go to 'Developer Options'. Tick 'Enable OEM unlock' and 'USB debugging'. Also UNTICK 'Verify apps over USB'.
6) Make sure your phone is well charged, and plug in your phone via USB cable. A message will appear asking if you give your PC debugging permission. Tick 'Always choose this option' and then tap 'Allow'.
7) On your computer, go to the kit you unzipped in Step 3 and go to the rootkitXperia_E23xx_26.1.X.3.xxx folder.
8) Double click on 'Install.bat' and an automated Command Prompt will open up (looks like DOS)
9) The bat file will send all the required files and scripts to your phone. When complete, your phone will restart.
10) When your phone has restarted, the Command Prompt will say 'Press any key to continue'. Push any key and the Command Prompt will close. If not, I am told the Rootkit can be run again until it works - however it worked first time for me.
If all has gone well, your phone will now be rooted and will have the SuperSU app installed. Download 'Root Checker Basic' from the app store to verify your root status.
The Rootkit files used were found at a similar thread here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/m4-aqua/development/root-xm4aqua-e2303-bolek-t3340399). This post/guide aims to be a more in-depth and approachable method for those not so comfortable working it out for themselves.
You're a lifesaver! Thanks so much I was stuck after having Bootloader Unlocked: No
Only problem is I don't have the usual feeling of satisfaction because of messing around with fastboot commands for hours that I usually do as this was so easy :/
