1. Yes.
2. L9 with Unlocked Bootloader can install custom roms and/or kernels

2.5 Unlocking the bootloader is like winning the lottery....lol.

but i also saw a thread called Locked BL recovery installer
so can't i use it to flash CWM and then flash roms?
here is the thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2095825
and this thread is what brought me here to ask the same question again:
if i can root my phone and flash recoverry on it without unlocking my BL so why should i unlock it?

Yes you can root your phone with CWM on locked BL but there is no possibilty of changing ROMs in future.

So you mean an unlocked BL gives me the ability to flash roms?

Yes that is correct. However, re-locking the bootloader is currently not possible which means your phone will be out of warranty, so proceed with caution.

Not really
Since most(if not all) of them are in CWM zip's.
What's stoping you from root-ing?

You've unlocked bootloader and you don't want to root your phone? That's the strangest thing i've heard.
Everybody else is doing it!

Well yes then, you have access to cwm from custom kernel so should be ok.
But it is a funny request.

Yes, i believe it's possible with the latest version of flashtool (+ update).
The safest way though, is to revert to stock (do a backup of your current rom&setup of course) then perform the unlock.

Alright alright.
But,if i backup my current rom (which is for LB) then unlock my BL and then restore my backup of my LB Rom,i will have a Rom for LB on my phone with ULBL.

[Q] Locked bootloader + CWM?

So, I was searching for solution to have custom recovery on my locked Xperia S and i couldn't find it. Is it even possible because of my locked bootloader? My phone is rooted.
Rooting with This method gives recovery on locked bootloader.
I'm using it. I make backups and also flash roms that are for locked bootloader.

xcream and [email protected] roms are pretty cool, easy to install on locked bootloader and clean,
You can also use the attached "recovery", very quick no reinstalls, and even root direct with flashtool. A lot faster than the old method

How?
Sent from my LT26i using Tapatalk 2
My SXS is rooted (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460) and CWM is installed (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1756346) on locked bootloader. So I can install for example the [email protected] ROM with CWM and will still have root and CWM?
Thx for answers!

[Q] I'm Stupid (bootloader locked and flashing)

First of all, I'm spanish, my apologizes of my expresions or misspelling.
That's what I've done:
1 - I've checked if my bootloader was unlockable, and my phone say's: NO
2 - Then I've installed the DualRecovery W/O root and with my phone bootlocked.
3 - Then I've tryed to flash CM11 in TWRP recovery, flashing first the Boot.img via fastboot.
4 - Device in Red Light.
What I can do to woke up my Z2? That's my record 2 hrs to **** my phone. :silly:
Firstly, it's stated in the first post of the CM11 thread that you shouldn't be using dual recovery. If you read the thread further, you'll see that it is recommended to use the recovery in DooMKernel to flash. And this requires unlocked bootloader.
Anyways, you can try using Flashtool to flash a stock firmware. Might be able to recover your phone.

If your BL is locked, you cannot install CM.... coz you cannot install a custom kernel. you should rebuild your phone using SEUS to put a good ROM.
Then you can put whatever ROM you want for LB and root it. but no custom kernel.

Hi there,
Is there any way to get root access without unlocking the bootloader. I found some ways in XDA but nothing is clear.
I would really appreciate if you guys can send me a link with a clear tutorial of how to get a new ROM without unlocking the bootloader.
I just got my Z2 which is sim locked (UK) and I can't unlock the bootloader from the official page.
Many thanks,
tux

Yeah, working right now, then 3 questions more:
first: the phone comes with a Vodafone rom, I can put some "unbranded" rom? how?
second: I can't unlock my bootloader forever ??
and third: What is the function of recovery mode if I can't flash any cRom? Just backups?
Thanks all ^^

You can download a Generic FTF and use flashtool to flash it to your device
Once you unlock your bootloader it stays unlock till you relock
You can flash roms n manage general other stuff from recovery

No way around a non unlockable bootloader
