check bootloader unlock status.
In your device, open the dialler and enter *#*#7378423#*#* to access the service menu.
Tap Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status. If Bootloader unlock allowed says Yes, then you can continue if it says No, or if the status is missing, your device cannot be unlocked.
I think your bootloader cannot be unlocked.There is someway to unlock that type of bootloader but i cant remember now.Search it and reply please
But he says again. So I guess he had unlocked it then relocked it and now wants to unlock it again.

yeah bro. thats what i mean on my question. can you help me guys to figure it out?
Check on another computer.
Request unlock token again from Sony. It might have been corrupted.
Close antivirus software.
All of these
When you go to the service menu (*#*#7378423#*#*) and check the bootloader status, does it say "Bootloader Unlock Allowed: Yes" or does it say "Bootloader unlocked: Yes"?
If it is the second one it is already unlocked, and that's the only reason I can see it keep failing.

You need to try ;
-Try in another pc
-Connect phone to other usb port
-Reinstall adb and flashtool drivers
-Try with flashtool
We have tried plenty of ways around this today and can't figure out reason why it has done this

i was trying to follow this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1285285) to unlock my sk17i. i'm pretty sure i did the right thing at first, but during "PROCESSING … REMOVE TESTPOINT NOW, THEN PRESS "READY"" part, i removed the USB instead of just the test point.
now the problem is nothing happens anymore after i click Ready (after connecting the test point) when i try to Patch SECMBoot.
i tried the RESTORE but it said 'nothing to restore'
is there any way to solve this? or maybe reset the process i abandoned before?
Well,does your phone still can be turn on?If no,use wotanserver,and try to unlock it again...
yes it can still be turn on. everything is still normal.
i have looked through wotanserver before posting this, but hesitated to use it. can i just unlock my phone using it and without installing their firmwares?
and it said
Beside unlocking removes Invalid SIM Card or SIM network unlock PIN screens and allows you to use your phone with different network SIM card – unlocking is NOT supported by WotanClient software!

done it.
instead of connecting testpoint to USB (which i did before), i connected test point to ground-negative connector of the battery.
now i have unlocked the device.
but sadly i used wotanserver and my phone is back to stock -_-"
thanks.
@hizperion
just a question sir, why are you trying to unlock bootloader?
if you have done it already thru test point that should be it.
this would allow you to use fastboot on your phone to install custom kernel.
flashing thru wotan would definitely lead to stock since that is what it does...

the unlocking thru test point at the first time didn't work, because i plugged the USB out during the process. so it kinda stuck at some point (it seems like its already unlocked, but actually not yet). i tried to flash using fastboot but nothing happened too.
just check service menu.
if it states "bootloader unlocked : yes" then it is already unlocked.
if it states "bootloader unlock allowed :yes" then it is still locked.

but i couldn't unlocked it anymore by connecting the testpoint to USB

Hi,
i just bought single unlock licence for omnius and tried several times to unlock my sk17i and always stuck on "waiting for loader response"!can somebody explain step by step how to do please i cannot wait anymore to flash custom kernels and roms!
thanks in advance!!
don't use Omnius, use SE bootloader unlocking relocking, download it.
1)open SE Bootloader_Unlocking_Relocking.exe
2)in your phone digit: *#06# and copy your IMEI
3)paste the IMEI in the SE Bootloader_Unlocking_Relocking.exe apposite space and click on: Get Unlock Code
3)turn off your phone,and connect in to your pc in fastboot mode(press volume up when you connect it
4)click Unlock BL,
4 link write me on private message
im not allowed to do that because of branded phone
i have the xperia mini pro sk17i, i have done this metod and my phone works perfectly
in service menu i got bootloader unlock allowed:NO...its sim locked branded xmp
have you done everything what i writed?
i can't get into fasboot it's locked
fastboot can't be locked, maybe you haven't got installed fastboot drivers on your pc
flashed with omnius.thanks anyway

Fastboot is disabled on SIM-locked and/or branded phones. Only way to enable it is via paid method.
Hi people Im posting here in my old forum because of more experienced devs my Question is which part of the hardware is flashmode associated with because my Xperia J won't boot into flashmode only fastboot which is strange because the bootloader is locked. this is my seccond J so all drivers are installed and my first J still works fine. so what part of the device is broken any ideas. Thanks.
The S1 boot ...You cant access/modify/alter it ...You need to use fastboot to unlock bootloader but on locked bootloader ,fastboot is pointless ....
Try it on another computer ...Windows loves to ignore flashmode for no reason at all...

I flashed my other J before and straight after. so would it be something wrong with the kernel
No ...
The section "related" to fastboot and flashmode lies before the kernel...
It tells the phone to use the boot.img(kernel) to boot the device..
Basically if you cant get the phone to boot in flash mode,you are screwed...
But i believe it's windows fault ,so try it on other machine ...

I tried to unlock but i never got my unlock code tried several times but does that mean its unlock-able or the code has already been isued.
Try this code to access service menu
*#*#7378423#*#*
Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status. If Bootloader unlock should say Yes then only it's unlockable ...
Also ,is this your new phone or refurbished ?
Chances are they dont allow BL unlock on refurbished phone ...

Theres a pattern lock i cant get past so i can't and tried the code on the energancy call screen but won't work because its not an emergency number. i bought it off ebay the seller said he can't remember the unlock pattern so i asked him for the security question then he said that the phone wasn't his and now he is not replying so i think he has found the phone or something and sold it so i have been truly ripped off

Chances are extremely remote...
You need access to phone partitions ...
Lack of USB debugging prevents that..
No terminal command can be issued to phone
Factory reset is impossible without flashmode ...
You can try asking for unlock code via another email id like prantoroy said but chances look slim...
Just a random thought...try using PC companion and see if you can format using it ...

took from sony bl unlock site:
-open the dialler and enter *#*#7378423#*#*
-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. maybe then u can use the testpoint method, nut i have no xperience with this... so better you read carefully the ''unlock by testpoint method'' thread found in general forum

i guess ur bootloader is not unlocked .... anyway kernl flash by fastboot should be no problem.. (if u really unlocked)
did u type in that code into dialer & looked if u are bootloader unlock allowed??? (this is the first thing u should do instead asking if it has sth to do with simlock, lol)
and press the thx button instead saying it :3

But s1tool showed that I have unlocked the bootloader, or may be it's because my operator blocks the fastboot?
Guys, the guy in the shop told me that the simlock unlock, unlock fastboot. Is this true?
Hello Everyone,
is there a proper way to unlock the bootloader of the xperia pro-i? The sony webpage doesnt have this model available for the code request, so i'm a bit lost on how to do this. Thanks a lot for your help!
actually figured it out - on the sony site you can simply select the xperia 1 III, enter the imei and it will give you the correct code. Also if you want to relock the bootloader its the same command just with lock: fastboot oem lock 0x[your code]. Hope it helps.

I got a code selecting xperia 1 IV. Threw my valid and some random imeis with the last digits altered at it and it seems to always give the same key (17E1B6ED42D0F719), you could just try that maybe? (at your own risk, I know nothing about this stuff) Haven't been able to use it yet myself, as I have some fastboot driver issues to solve first... xD
