Yes, you can use that ROM in locked bootloader as it is SONY stock modified ROM. Any ROM which can run on stock kernel doesn't need an unlocked bootloader. ROMS like CM9, MIUI are based on Android Stock ROMs and require separate kernels.

Thanx bro...

Rom request

Could anyone make a rom for the people without unlocked bootloaders please????
1. Wrong section.
2. You can try and make your own and see how it goes.
3. All you need to do is unlock your bootloader, which is relockable (with tp version of unlock)
Xperia UXP NXT is the only one currently.
Custom ROMs cannot have all those functions with stock kernel. Stock kernel has low functionality that's why custom ROMs do not work so.

[Q] Installing MIUI without unlocking bootloader ??

Hello
I wanted to know if i can install MIUI in my neov without unlocking my bootloader ?? I knw bootloader needs to be unlocked to install custom ROMS ..but is there any way out ?? :O
Thanking you
I don't think you need for MIUI V4 (ICS) because it's stock based and it works on stock kernel. So update to official ICS with flashtool, then install recovery and flash MIUI.
there is in Spanish?

as for as your problem i think you have not flashed JB kernel, their are so many kernels for JB choose one or read how to installrom from OP..
I would like to give a brief about locked and unlocked bootloader, it may help to other peeps
if you unlocked your bootloader it doesnt solve the bootloops, the main reason of bootloops are you have to use respected kernel for the respected rom, if you are flashing ics rom then you should be on ics kernel, same for ginger bread (GB) or jelly bean, you shouldnt be confused if you read the procedure of flashing the rom from OP,
whats wrong with locked bootloader?
if you accidently flashed any wrong mod or rom which is not suitable to your stock kernel you get bootloops, and you cannot restore backed up rom immediately because you have to reflash stock from scratch and then recovery, after then only you can flash etc, it is a very painfull process,
why to unlock bootloader..?
unlocked bootloader is like a muscle car , after unlocking you flash custom kernel which has cwm recovery per-installed , if you got any booloops you can easily manage restore backup, or you can flash custom rom which is compatible with flashed kernel, and you can easily switch kernels switch roms flash mods without worry,
this is explained in many ways and many times In xda, but peeps are lazy to search...
Please dont mind if my briefing is boring and useless...
thank you..

Why do you get Sony logo if you flash kernel... Are you sure you are fastbooting kernel instead of hotbooting?

Locked vs. Unlocked bootloader?

I have been wondering what's the difference between locked and unlocked bootloaders? Is it about the capabilities that you are able to do with an unlocked bootloader or what is the thing between them?
Sent from my Xperia U using xda app-developers app
Hi, its not related to phone performance, its related to flashing custom ROMs mate.
There are recoveries which you can use to flash custom ROMs on locked bootloader, but you will never taste ROMs like Cyanogen Mod, which is only for unlock bootloader.

With unlocked boot loader you can install custom kernel

Is there any way to install custom kernels on locked bootloaders? Mine XU's bootloader is locked (unlockable) and I'm running firedroid which is based on (if I remember correctly) FXP146 or 147, and those are based on cyanogenmod, right?

You cant bro, the only thing you can do is flash kernel for locked bootloader and install roms for locked bootloader.
So the only difference between locked and unlocked are the mods you can install (i.e. user interface)? So if I'm happy with my UI there's really no point in unlocking?

Stock kernels are set with limitations.. Whereas Custom Kernels dont have.
The problem is most custom kernels dont support 480p or 720p video recording like stock kernels.
I am having a NEO V with Stock Kernel and a Custom ROM (UHD 4.0) with Root privileges.
Depends upon the type of ROM u r using. Mobiles with 720P support give their best with Stock Kernels.
basically you will never see past ics (on a U) if you have a locked bootloader

Custom ROM on XPERIA U locked Bootloader

hello
i have an Xperia U with bootloader LOCKED, and unlock allowed : NO ! is there a way to run a custom ROM on that phone ?
Nope... As custom Rom requires custom kernel...and to get custom kernel you need to have unlocked bootloader...so no is there is no way
