Entering method 4
I have downloaded latest developer rom,
moved it to phone's internal memory,
But when I tried to update with updater app, it throws an error that I am permitted to update to other stable update only.
For other methods, I am getting error at 50% "Couldn't verify device - Current account is different from the account info on the device". The phone is also not booting to EDL mode. It's just booting to android instead.

But as you have said on your other thread the method in the link follows fastboot mode which is for unlocked Bootloader only. My phone's Bootloader is still locked. And I am unable to enter EDL mode also. Phone reboots to android when I try to enter download mode.

Without edl mode with locked bootloader it is not possible to flash. So there are various methods to open edl mode. Search on google you will get it.

good job!
excellent guide
big thx !
do you turn off drivers signature enforcement in your pc
@m4mohit , maybe you should add, that logging into miui accound and activate device track can help at unlocking also. in fact this was how it finally worked for me. despite the other prerequisites
im using windows 7 32bit so there is no driver signature check i guess

try to update and see if it there
important point. after confirming the desire to unlock and clear data, the bootloader really(!) unlocks only after the initial settings and when you see the gray immutable "OEM unlock" switch in the developer menu.
If you didn't see this item the first time, you need to enable the Internet and update the security policies, and at the same time disable them immediately.
This is the only reason for the appearance of the red inscription "only official ..." and this is the way to switching "rmm state" from prenormal to cheking.

I think you are booting your phone into bootloader mode.
You do not have to boot your phone into bootloader mode, instead you have to boot in Odin mode. For that, switch off your SAMSUNG phone. Afterwards, press both volume buttons and insert the data cable into your phone simultaneously. (Note: your device should be of samsung otherwise the Odin application will not recognize your device. Your data cable should be connected to pc to enter Odin mode). Then a blue coloured screen will appear. You have click the volume up button once and you will enter Odin mode.
Thanks!

*I don’t take responsibility for any bricked devices or any issues that you may encounter. Do everything at your own risk. Read till the end before you start.
Since the Xperia Au variants don’t allow for bootloader unlock by default, the only way I found was to use qUnlocktool to change the Bootloader unlock allowed From No to Yes. I have successfully tried this on an SOG02, not been tested on SOG01 personally.
Things you will need -
1. The phone obviously
2. A windows PC
3. USB-C cable
4. qUnlocktool - https://we.tl/t-XO7zUJanov (credit to canadaunlocking.com for this link)
5. Unlocking credits – You can use canadaunlocking.com or martview.com to purchase one credit to use the tool ($21 - $35 USD depending on which website)

Both are trusted as far as I know
Here are the steps listed briefly:
1. Charge your phone to at least 50% or more, take a backup just in case. Power off the phone.
2. Open your windows PC and turn off any antivirus or windows defender. These will interfere with the program.
3. Connect the USB-C cable to the PC. In case of desktop, it’s preferred to use the ports on the motherboard directly.
4. Unzip the qUnlocktool zip file and it should contain 32 bit and 64 bit drivers. Install according to the system that you have. If you think these drivers are outdated, look for newer drivers on the Sony website for your specific device.
5. Start the tool and enter the username and password you received when you purchased the credit earlier. Click on check credit ONLY ONCE. Make sure you have 1 credit (Server credit left/used: 1/0)
6. Click SIM unlock and the tool should instruct you to connect the phone with USB-C while holding down the volume down button.
7. If you see UNLOCK DONE, you have succeeded. It may take a few minutes so be patient.
8. Disconnect your device
DO NOT delete the qUnlocktool folder or any of the files just yet. There should be a backup folder we may need later.
Once the phone boots, open the dialer and enter *#*#7378423#*#* to access the service menu. Go to service info>configuration>rooting status. If bootloader unlock allowed says Yes, then proceed to unlock the bootloader from the Sony website.

Important note : You may lose SIM functionality once you unlock, but don’t worry, do the following -
1. Open up your PC, start qUnlocktool as admin.
2. Power off your phone
3. Connect while holding volume down.
4. In the qUnlocktool, use the write backup option
5. Boot the phone. You should have regained SIM functionality.
TWRP
1.Grab the twrp of your choice. Check XDA or the telegram groups
2. Power off the phone. Make sure USB debugging is enabled beforehand.
3. connect phone in fastboot mode
4. Open terminal or CMD in platform tools folder, make sure twrp (recovery.img) is in the same folder.
5. type “fastboot devices”. Your device should be shown
6. type “fastboot flash recovery recovery.img”
7. type “fastboot reboot”
Voila

Theoretically, same guide should work as it should change Booloader unlock allowed from no to yes.
Other ways to get Sim function? I tried the back up option but did not fix the issue.
