You don't need to unlock bootloader to flash stock ROM.

Testpoint unlock on ICS???

Just a question.
Does the Testpoint method to unlock the bootloader works on a Mini (St15i) when I'm on ICS (stock)?
Or do I need to use official method?
Thanks

Rom is not important... Just try it.l When you get an error saying ": qcReceivePacket: can't get packet start" you can not use testpoint method due to new security by Sony.
So basically I should either use official method or downgrade to GB to be sure that it works?

Yes, it still unlock

I first made a backup of my DRM keys, so i can go back to a locked bootloader if I want. But that's only possible if you're already rooted. You can try Bin4ry's method, but if that doesn't work you should skip this step. Then you can backup your TA partition.
Then you can unlock you're bootloader. Sony's own instructions (search for "Sony unlock bootloader") are very good.
Tnx mate

See that? LT22i is XP!
Nevermind, hadn't seen your link before :silly:
Anyway, bootloader unlock tool won't be device specific I think so if that tool supports unlocking bootloader it'll be for all 2012 Xperia atleast, and anyways, all Xperias supporting unlock have the same bootloader unlock method

Wat u mean by no difference? U will void ur warranty when you unlock bootloader once, then evem locking will not gain you with warranty.
U can backup PDS, here's more info on it! See Q13.
