Hi,
I don't know why but my Xperia Z Ultra have "Botloader unlock allowed: no" status. Is there any way to unlock it or to use custom ROMs with locked bootloader? I appreciate your help
Best Regards
That's a negative. You can't unlock it. Are you on Bell by any chance?

It allows you to put custom roms and custom kernels. It also voids your warranty.
If you phone is sim/network locked (in service menu it'll say something like: "Bootloader unlock allowed: No"), then you cant unlock bootloader unless you pay someone to unlock it with network unlock codes. Afterwards you can unlock it via offical (SE) or test-point method.
yes. subforums you try to check on development. there are many tutorials to unlock and root

Yes it is worth unlocking the bootloader. With an unlocked bootloader you can do almost anything with your phone.

Well that depends, it might have been worth for you, but for someone who likes stock rom and has no need or will to change it with custom rom (except few tweeks that can be done with root), it's probably best to keep it locked. I look at it as a pretty subjective thing. If losing warranty is not an issue and you want to go that extra mile, sure, unlock it.

You need to dial this *#*#7378423#*#* Then go to Service info>Configuration then read Bootloader unlock allowed, it will say yes or no, if yours says no you cant unlock your bootloader even if you have sim unlock.

I though you could unlock the bootloader if you didnt have a sim-locked phone. So what/who dictates whether or not a phone can be bootloader unlocked then?
Its unrelated to simlock, but your carrier is the one who made it un-unlockable. Its a shame unfortunately many of us are in your boat

Xperia RAY
Currently running Gingerbread 2.3.4
My phone is locked to the network o2UK and the bootloader is set to LOCKED
I've tried to unlock the bootloader but in the services menu it says 'Bootloader unlock allowed: NO'
My question is, how would i get the bootloader unlocked or are there any 'work arounds' to get root
Thanks!
okay, first... rooting n unlocking bootloader isn't same... root can be done to locked, unlocked, bootloader status : no and bootloader status : yes...

Bootloader Unlock Allowed:No
It has SIM lock, if I remove my carrier SIM lock will it be able to unlock?
No, it won't make it unlockable

Hello, there is no longer an official method to unlock the bootloader for Huawei devices. So yes, unfortunately you will have to pay to unlock the bootloader.
Isn't there anyone in the world who can help us for free?
