If your manufacturing date is below 12w10 it can be unlocked by setool or else you have to buy code

Take it you want me to look at flash tools is that right can that unlock and relock the bootloader for my Neo v ?
Sent from my MT11i using xda premium
Look for the relocking bootloader ftf file (for neo v) in this category and flash it in the flash mode.
make sure you make backup of everything if something incase goes wrong.
and also if you unlocked bootloader via sony's official site then you can relock it but you wont get the certificates as they're already gone while unlocking it + warranty is voided.
i unlocked my bootloader and then used se pc companion to install the original se 2.3.3 rom ... i wanted to know whether still i have a locked bootloader or unlocked bootloader please help!!!!?????
I cant remember,but run s1tool and
R=locked
r=unlocked

yes now you have unlocked bootloader even if you flash any rom
you're good to go
You see, firmware and boot-loaders are two different things all together, once you've unlocked a boot-loader it's "unlocked" even if you install Stock Firmwares. There is a way to lock the boot-loader back again though, which requires a different process all together !!
In s1tool it says not recognized simlock certificate... my phone is sim-unlocked. can i unlock my bootloader without a brick? and i have fastboot mode and bootloader unlock allowed: yes...
will it restore the simlock?
nobody?

To unlock your bootloader that says "Bootloader unlock allowed:yes", go to the official Sony site for get bootloader's codes, my recommendation is download last version of FlashTool and when you connect your device in flash mode (with phone off push "Back" button and plug usb cable) then you have a "Plugins" tab, go there and select "unlock bootloader" it shows you a window where you put your IMEI and the bootloader unlock code that you get of Sony official site, and flash tool will do the work for you.
If your bootloader says "Bootloades unlock allowed:no" and you have SIM lock, you can try http://www.fastgsm.com that offers now at cheapest prices for Xperia Neo SIM Unlocking and bootloader unlock in the same price, the unlock software is fully compatible with Windows 8.
I hope I helped, Good luck!!

Hi, iam new to Sony but did have htc wildfire I've rooted and overclocked, iam about to root Sony Xperia mini but I've noticed someone say theres 2 different methods depending on your bootloader I've done that *# code and checked it says yes so what iam wondering and wanting to find out is how to check the bootloader is locked or unlocked, iam on .62 software iam looking to downgrade, root then update, any help would be appreciated thanks
Sent from my ST15i using xda app-developers app
Connect it to flashtool and look at the Bootloader Status: ROOTED or ROOTABLE. ROOTED means the bootloader is unlocked
Or you type *#*#7378423#*#* and go to service info -> configuration -> rooting status:
bootloader unlocked: yes [obviously it's unlocked ]
bootloader unlock allowed: yes [unlockable]
bootloader unlock allowed: no [not unlockable, only with a paid method]
Ok thank you, iam sure its locked and with *# I get yes so that means its unlockable, all I wanna do is delete standard apps that come on phone. So should I use and follow your method for locked bootloader? Do I just flash straight over the .62, thanks
Sent from my ST15i using xda app-developers app
Sorry also where u say
MAKE SURE PC COMPANION OR SONY UPDATE SERVICE ISN'T RUNNING IN BACKGROUND WHILE YOU ARE FLASHING!!! DON'T USE THIS METHOD IF YOUR BOOTLOADER IS UNLOCKED, OTHERWISE YOUR DEVICE WILL BRICK!! (Unlocked bootloader can't do updates over the air, but flashing won't destroy your phone on unlocked bootloader!)
Is that on pc? Thanks

Yes this is on PC
Yes just follow the guide to root it and afterwards you can delete all unwanted apps :good:

i relock my bootloader by this method relock bootloader post
is there any other option i can try...plzz lemme know
thnxx in adv
If you are using stock. 54 tft file, it doesnt matter if your bootloader is locked, it will work on both. If you want to use Rom for unlocked, then you need to keep bootloader unlocked all the time you are using the Rom. If you flash unlocked and then relock it, you will get bootloop.

If it is Sony stock tft file, then yes, its working on both, locked and unlocked.
If its customized Rom based on stock, then read the OP.

There is thanks to brainkafka for kernel, maybe its updated.

Do you have a ST25a or ST25i? If you're installing an ST25a on a i you should exclude the base band in flashtool and the other way around. I don't know if this causes the boot loop, but it might be worth the try.
Yes... But a boot loop isn't necessarily. It's the best probability. Maybe... Just vibrate and nothing else.
