Well, motorola's internal servers will have registered it when you asked for unlocking bootloader. So your warrenty would be void
Yes you can..

You wouldn't know what kind of tools they would use to test to make sure your phone is still valid for warranty, they may as well use an unsigned sin file to test whether you have done stuff on the bootloader.
So my advice is don't do anything yet until you get your phone back from the service centre.

I was talking to my mate actually who knows loads of stuff about SE and the way they work etc and he said the tool they use to check, Emma I think it's called, hasn't been updated since April so they won't be able to pick up anything to do with the BL for now
No, not even with a nandroid backup

Hello
I want to ask:If i unlock the bootloader over sony,will i be able to restore the warranty by relocking?
test point method voids the warranty permanatly because you have to take the sticker off the testpoints,wich voids the warranty.So,can I return the warranty by relocking the bootloader,even tho i unlocked over SONYs website
Please help me...
EDIT:i unlocked the bootloader over xda rom hub,easiest way.i dont care if warranty void because i never broke a phone.

If u unlocked via the method that sony has provided, Relocking is the method that u can get warranty again. Honestly i unlocked via sony website too. Testpoint method will sure lose our warranty

But isnt it the opposite?We loose DRM by sonys method and we give the unique IMEI of our phone to them.testpoint method doesnt require your imei either loose DRM
OOH,i forgot,I want cm10 soo bad:drool:.but is it worth unlocking the bootloader.I mean,my st15i is only 2 weeks old.

Use official method . Tp Is extremely risky . You can always relock bootloader after official unlock.

CM10 is in alpha stagehence many bugs and frequent crashes. Better install cm9 stable . However my advice is to unlock bootloader only of yourre not satisfied with current performance..

I dont experience lags,but i hate that lots of the roms like PA,newer sony firmware,... need a unlocked bl.And i watch over my stuff.i had a lg p350,xperia x8 before,and i didnt even use the warranty once-never broke it
Then pls don't unlock bl. Trust me custom Roms even like cm9 have many bugs .. No xloud/WiFi and others. Better stay with stock.

Hi all
My wife is considering to root her phone, but she does not want to root it, unless it is possible to unroot so it can be sent in for warranty porpuses...
So is it just to unroot it, and sent it in for warranty??
Kind regards

Yup you can unroot it and claim the warranty. However warranty would be void if you unlock the bootloader..

You can unroot using repair option in pc companion or you can unroot using this script
Just reflash stock rom in flashtools and root is gone
i was thinking to relock my bootloader. please help me to decide by giving me advantages of locked bootloader or the risk of using unlocked bootloader (or vice versa) thanks.
Locked bootloader doesn't have much advantages other than maybe your warranty will be back but still if you don't want warranty back you shud be stuck with unlocked bootloader.....

DRM keys are lost forever if unlocked by official method. Relocking will not help for officially unlocked bootloader. Do this only if you have to take your phone to Sony. Maybe it is different for testpoint method..

Warranty...... But I doubt you will get full warranty if you obtained the unlock code officially from Sony.. They register the request with your IMEI and void your warranty...But somewhere Sony mentioned to give conditional warranty, provided the device wasnt damaged with any mod you made "frying your processor by overclocking" ...Still its worth relocking if you claim warranty/service.. Apart from that, theres no big deal.

Download music info on unlocked bootloader!! It works, I have tried it. No need to relock bootloader, just download and replace the SemcMetaDataCleanup.apk. Tested with ThilianaC's walkman player. Should obviously work on the walkman players mentioned in the link.:laugh:

No, there is no way to flash JB on locked BL.
You can unlock the bootloader using Sony official tool/website for unlocking bl
http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com
Before unlocking you can backup your TA partition, in case you wanted to give the phone to warranty. Later you can restore it - phone will be locked again and they will not know it was unlocked.

I dont think you should feel sad because of that. My bl can be unlocked, but after using custom kernel for 2days my phone became unusuable dur to extreme lags. That's why i stay with stock ROMS. They are good enough .
