I can't unlock my bootloader....
This is what I know:
-I can't flash custom kernels
-I can flash Sony official kernels
Questions:
-Can I flash custom Sony based kernels?
-Can I flash Sony official JB kernel?
-Can I try flashing a kernel and, if anything goes wrong, flash my previous kernel?
-Can my phone have a hard brick when flashing a kernel for unlocked bootloaders?

Hello! I have a x10 mini pro with stock kernel, I can not unlock the bootloader as the s1tool me: Not reconozigned certificate
Therefore I test for Stock ROMs kernel, but so far all have some problems, so I wonder if there is any way that a ROM that works with custom kernel work with stock kernel (Running a custom ROM for kernel (NAA , etc) in the stock kernel)
I hope I can help, thanks!
Hey,
I have xperia ray, Im on stock 2.3 with unlocked bootloader, can i flash custom ics kernel over stock and then install ics rom or first i need to upgrade to stock ics?
Flash a stock ftf first then flash ICS ROMS, and if you're going back to GB flash a GB ftf.

Can I flash a custom kernel without unlocking bootloader??? Just the custom kernel not including custom rom. I will keep my custom rom.
Hello everybody on XDA,
I am new to flashing custom ROM's and I decided that I want Kitkat on my Xperia P.
Currently I have stock JB rooted with a Locked Bootloader.
I know I need to take the following steps:
Unlock my bootloader
Flashing/Fastboot the Kernel
Flash the rom with CWM
Flash the Gapps with CWM
Everything is clear to me how I should do it, except for fastbooting a Kernel.
I have looked on different threads with different kernels and they all seem like the have a different method of flashing/fastbooting it on my device.
So my questions are how do you flash/fastboot the CM 11 Kitkat Kernel by Percy_g2 for Xperia P?
There is a Newbies thread on installing Kitkat for Xperia U. Is the process the same for Xperia P?
Do I need to install CWM before I flash the Kernel or does it come with that Kernel?
Anything else I should know before attempting to install Kitkat (Tips or any important information I may have missed)

Hello there , I decided to finally flash a custom rom to my device(Snapdragon Kenzo), but AFAIK I can only flash lineageOS with locked bootloader. Are there other roms that I can safely flash with a locked bootloader?
