Hi!
I've got a problem with unlocking my XPERIA U. It has Orange branded firmware, Android 2.3.7, and I'd like to change it to for example ICS. I wanted to unlock my bootloader, but I can see a message: Bootloader unlock allowed: No.
Is there any possibility to unlock it, or not? And why this phone has no possibility to do it?
Regards,
linoskoczek
Unlock = debrand? If yes, just flash stock ROM 1.54 or 1.75 with flashtool.
You can make branded ftf backup before flashing, just in case.
BTW why do u want to unlock bootloader?
Odp: [Q] Not possible to unlock phone - is there anyother method to do it?
No, you can't unlock your phone. Probably you have simlock and locked bl by operator(Orange). But you can flash fw without Orange apps etc. Just go to development section and download latest ICS fw.

Ahh that ****ty orange...
I've flashed it to ICS, but still unlocking is not possible. Anyway, do you think http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460 will root the phone? It's just a one thing I can do without unlocking xperia.

I think the only thing you can't do in SXP with locked bootloader is flashing custom kernel. So, the answer is yes, you can root the phone without unlocking bootloader as well as e.g. install CWM recovery.

If you want to install a kernel like lupus, first you need to unlock your bootloader. Use this tool to unlock it.

The risk of brick your device, but a lot of people already unlocked their bootloaders without any problems, your DRM will be permanently deleted, but believe me you can get more from your phone when the bootloader is unlocked, really worth it.

And you loose your warranty
Drm won't be lost if you unlock using testpoint method.

First check the bootloader status.whether its unlocked or not.
If its already unlocked then you can flash any custom kernel.If not you have to unlock BL first.Its not harmful but it will avoid your phone warranty.Try to use SE web site to unlock BL.Its the safest way..
After unlocking BT u can flash kernels anytime using Flash tool™..
Re:How to install a kernel
To install a custom kernel,you have to unlock your bootloader and there are two ways of doing it:
1.Use the official sony method...
head to unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com and follow the procedure there..
by doing so you lose your DRM keys which means services like track id wont work anymore...
2.use a testpoint method which is a bit complicated but you retain your DRM keys
for the testpoint method check this out

Bootloader unlocking should be done carefully,you might brick your phone if you are not careful..
after the unlock is complete you can use flashtool to flash a custom kernel in fastboot mode..
I rooted my phone and now I have CWM will there be a day when I could flash Roms to this device?? I really hope so. This device would complete crap if there is no way of doing that.

You have to unlock your bootloader to flash a custom rom. Sony makes unlocking your bootloader easy: http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/
