It is recommended that you unlock the bootloader, Sony actually allows it and it can be done here: http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/48798

I prefer to keep my DRM keys and bravia engine. I do not recommended unlocking it as it is usually the cause of hard brick if you do not follow certain steps correctly.
I am back. Ignore forum signature 1st line.

Really? No tutorial? You have link in that very same thread you posted! Check where it says "Unofficial Unlocking Method"
And if that's not enough, you have sticky thread! which have instructions in second post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1409269

It is easy, but you need to be careful! You need to follow steps exactly.
Please search before open a new thread. There is a chat thread here where you can also have quick chat if you wish to. Best regards,

Your boot loader is unlocked right ? if yes then,
flash a kernel with cwm(suggest you nightelf's.for link check my sig) and flash this via cwm
For locked boot loader use pandemics guide ')

Neo V, dev section, sticky threads. Read them!
You are old enough here to know that.
Hey dude, I didn't post this thread before i search, I barely look in to Neo V DEV section. I have found many post that explained "how to unlock? ", but no"lock" thread !!!. Can you redirect me to the right section ?
for relock.use restore button with s1tool...i did that way.
if u read relock BL...u will find this :
xodARAP7 said:
Peeps, if you unlocked your phone with s1tool testpoint unlock solution you CAN relock your bootloader with same app s1tool by pressing restore.
Why you are so complicated, since most of you did it with s1tool?

Thanks for a quick reply, I didn't use S1tool to unlock my phone. I followed this method... !!!

So dude, have you tried to check where I pointed you? I won't give you exact link.
There are not many sticky threads in dev section, and not more than 1 with unlocking BL.
And yes, it does contain information how to relock your BL.
Dude sorry, I was frustrated to find a quick solution to lock my phone. Otherwise i can't go for warranty service. Also the keyword i used was not correct. Any way i got it now, but don't go-away i will come back here if any help needed.
Thanks a lot
You used official method they know its been unlocked anyway. .....
