Hi everybody!
When you try to upgrade operate system from version 2.1 (everything is the same as in the video) to version 4.x runs everything is fine until the moment you try to flash. BootLoader is unlocked. Mobile device is functional, just need higher OS version for application

Looks like your bootloader is not unlocked
Can you look at the output from S1Tool?

Getting Root Access is NOT the same as unlocking your bootloader.
Root Access gives you access to the system files in the ROM part of the phone.
Bootloader unlocking gives you access to change the Kernel. So your bootloader is NOT unlocked by the rooting process.

Flashtool will do it, but you have to be careful.
There are some checks to be done before you go and unlock it because it can break your phone. There is a link in the kernel-thread to unlocking the bootloader, that will tell you what to look for to see if it's safe. If it is you can unlock it with flashtool.

but the problem is still present during Flashmode, it states that My USB Debugging is OFF but Debugging Mode is already Enabled.

Stock ROM .58 Firmware Gingerbread
I wanted to Upgrade to .62 Firmware Stockrom and then Unlock the Bootloader
Other Issue: Can't Upgrade to Firmware OTA.

You have to enable both Debugging Mode and Unknown Source.
If you have unlocked bootloader, upgrading via OTA is not possible.

I want to Install Custom Rom, Hybrom, Because Feedback says that, Flashing
to Hybrom with stockrom .58 will have problems in during Boot Up. It will stack up on the SE Logo.
Man if you want to flash a custom rom you just have to unlock your bootloader you don't need to change your firmware or root first.
Does wotan server free of charge for flashing? it says i have invalid account even though I registered.

Once again, it does not matter what ROM you have in first place(.58 or .62, MIUI, CM....does NOT matter).
You must install custom kernel ALSO, else phone will not boot.
Cleaning cache, dalvik cache and factory reset must also be done if installing new ROM.
1 More question sir, If I flashed a ROM to a Locked Network Unit, will it be openline after Flashing?

Custom ROMs require also custom kernel.
Custom kernel requires unlocked bootloader.
Unlocked bootloader requires Bootloader Unlock Allowed: Yes, which on some network locked phones is not like this.
Hi!
I got my Xperia S a day ago, rebranded it to Nordic firmware while waiting for my sim unlock code. Today received a message from second place that there some trouble with imei and code can not be provided. So I need to get back on rogers firmware in order to exchange it.

hows the phone run on nordic firmware?
glad I've been reading, I'm having a hard time figuring out if i need to sim unlock before i unlock the boot loader.
as the statement above it seems you did not sim unlock first.
do i need to sim unloack a rogers locked xperia s first, before i unlock the bootloader?
Thanks
I just got an unlock code from MobileInCanada, took about 18 hours. Popped in my Bell Simcard and it worked. The thing is that the bootloader is still locked.
On Nordic firmware phone is running great, and best part no rogers start up screen and crapware apps!!! ( make sure you got rogers back up firmware just in case)
I think that if you use official boot loader unlock you have to sim unlock your phone first.
In your phone, tap Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status. If Bootloader unlock allowed says Yes, then you can continue with the next step. If it says No, or if the status is missing, your device cannot be unlocked.
What i noticed that before I sim unlocked my first xperia S (had dead pixels returned same day) it said No in that menu, and after sim unlock it changed to Yes.
Sim unlock does not unlock bootloader. You got to use sony mobile developer website and follow all instruction on there.
unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/instructions
ok mine says unlock boot loader allowed = no
I ordered my sim unlock 2 hours ago, so i guess im done tonight. really dont want to setup my new toy just to do it again in a day or two.
Thanks

Sim unlock does not unlock bootloader. You got to use sony mobile developer website and follow all instruction on there.

Mine says no, can't be unlocked... I can try the rest of the steps, nothing will happen...
sorry don't know what to advise, have no phone on me any longer.

How did you back up the rogers firmware?
still waiting for my sim unlock key from canadagsm.ca, might be a late one tonight. lol
What I did to back up rogers firmware is use SEUS to update your phone even if it has latest software. After update is successful go to C:\Program Files\Sony Ericsson\Update Service\ db folder there should be 3 files named FILE_XXXXX, (their size is 64kb,9487kb,288381kb you should have something similar).
Copy those 3 files to some folder that is easy for you to find.
Then open latest flashtool go to advanced>decrypt files
when window opens select folder where those files saved.
Select those 3 file and wait for it to finish decrypting.
Once it is done another window will pop up that will assist you to create ftf bundle. Just select all files accept for partition-image.sin and wait for it to finish. Created ftf bundle will be in directory where falashtool was instaled in folder called firmwares.
You are done!
Now you can flash your phone anytime you need to put Rogers firmware back in.
thanks, i have been using htc for a few months and coming back to se (sony) i feel as though im starting all over again.
do you know if you can enter the sim unlock code with out using a different sim? i don't have one.
if you need a sim from another carrier i guess ill have to buy one.
Yeah, you will need to use another sim card. I found an old Bell one and I cut it up to fit. Worked, but easy to screw up.

I think that rebranding of the phone is necessary step for your phone to be boot loader unlockable. At least that is what I understand from reading forum.
I just got new xperia S (sim unlocked it few hours ago) will put another software and let you know if that changed anything.
edit:
Just finished with flasing still boot loader not unlockable.
ok i entered my sim unlock code and the service menu still says bootloader unlock allow=no
does this mean i cant use sony's site to unlock the bootloader?
I guess it's the same boat as I am on. I guess we have to wait for the test point method to become active. (And in the proccess tear apart our phones)
I really want to like this phone but it's hard to do with the Sony interface. I would love to load up some CM9 right now but I can't due to this stupid carrier crap. I do wish it was more like Europe were unlocked phones are not some kind of secret market.
Oh well, I guess I will have to do with using a custom launcher for now...
yeah it might be a while before the test point id ready.
i have a question for rogers users, in the service menu my model says, LT26i, should we not be LT26a
I thought se versions with i at the end was for international versions?
Yeah, I noticed that right away. I don't think an "a" version of the phone exists. I believe the "i" is just capable of all bands.

just had a thought, i wonder if using the ftf files of a rogers phone that can have the boot loader unlocked and using the se update service with those files would allow me to unlock the bootloader on se sites.?
maybe a dev can answer this.
Im using flashtool on linux to unlock the bootloader on my x10mp.
When I follow the unlocking instructions, the message shown is:

does this mean the BL cannot be unlocked on my phone? or am I doing something wrong?

also, when I click Help->Check Drivers it shows:

Have u tried looking for a tutorial on XDA? They actually work too. I succesfully did it. If u do, be sure to read every step carefully!

tnx.
I've followed these tutorials:
http://i-amhereforyou.blogspot.co.il/2012/06/unlock-bootloader-for-xperia.html
the current flashtool should be able to unlock the BL all by itself. it detects my phone but fails to unlock it.
I've checked the date number under the battery and its says "11W10" so the phone should be ok for unlocking the BL.
any suggestions?
TIA

Hello,
I'm attempting to unlock the bootloader on a Xperia Mini Pro U20i using a program called Flashtool. When i connect the device to the computer in Flashmode, it tells me that the device is connected, but then it disconnects several seconds later saying that USB debugging is off. USB debugging is enabled on the phone. I don't understand what i am doing wrong. All the correct drivers are installed. Please, can somebody help me.

Here you go
But if you have luck there's no need to create a new thread on that topic because a moderator could move this thread to the other forum. You are able to request that by clicking on the orange triangle in the upper right corner of your post and write a short message to the mod and ask him to move the thread. I'll do that for you now, but you know it for the next time then
Btw for your problem check this. Are you sure you disabled your antivirus program and you did the factory reset?

Thanks chaps!
Do i actually need to unlock the bootloader or can i just go ahead and root the phone? If i could it would make things much, much easier. On my Nexus 7 you had to unlock the bootloader first, but i just wondered whether things would be any different on this device?

No need to unlock the bootloader in order to root the device.. Just press the 'root' button in flashtool and follow the instructions. You only need to unlock the bootloader to flash custom kernels on this phone.

Okay, so basically i need to root in order to install a custom ROM then? (Because custom ROMS change the kernel). Then reason i want root access is because the old Android Market on 2.1 doesn't seem to work anymore, so by installing the Android 4.3 ROM i can use the new Google Play store instead. At the moment i cannot download any apps on the phone whatsoever. Google Play is not compatible with Android 2.1 so i guess a ROM upgrade is the only option i have?

Not sure if the market app is completely dead for 2.1, it's been a while since i used it. On this device though, the kernel is never included in the ROM. You can either choose a ROM that runs on stock kernel, in which case you don't need to unlock the bootloader, or choose one that needs a custom kernel (for 2.3 android that would be nAa-14), in which case you do need the bootloader unlociked. You will need to root your phone in both cases though.
It sounds complicated maybe more so than on other phones, but it's the way it is, and once you're used to it, it's not such a hassle.

Your bootloader is locked.
This means you can only flash original Sony GB 2.3 ROM via SEUS, PC Companion or flashtool if you have a ftf version.
If you are going to install other ROMs you must make sure you are using the LOCKED bootloader version of the ROM/Kernel IF one is available.
If you are able to unlock your device, I would strongly advise it.
