Hello everyone,
I'm using an Xperia Mini and I unlocked the bootoader.
Can I upgrade to the last official firmware (4.0.2.A.0.62)?
I'm waiting for answers. Bye.
Flash new firmware via wotanserver.
Just did the same to my active (bootloader unlocked) and everything is ok
Hi,
I have been reading up alot recently about rooting and flashing my phone (Sony Ericsson Xperia Ray) as currently my carrier (O2) is not releasing ICS for updates as they have not "tested" it sufficiently on my particular device (this was there explanation to me via email).
I have looked on the official sony ericsson website trying to find a way to update my phone and found that the method there required my phone to have an unlocked bootlader but unfortunatly my phone has a locked bootloader (im assuming due to it being locked to O2 although it is a pay as you go model).
I have read conflicting opinions on whether you can root and flash your phone in my situation and was just wondering (before i tried anything at all) whether someone could clarify if it would be possible to update my phone to ICS.
For reference this is my phones status:
Rooting Status:
Bootloader unlock allowed: No
Thanks
Try find generic ics for ray, flash it using flashtool.
Or u can pay to make your bootloader unlockable.

When you follow the Link Tutorial you have at the end Root and ICS on your Ray, without unlocking your bootloader (unlocking bootloader causes probably in lost your warranty!)
You need unlocking Bootloader for new Kernel and/or some Custom Rom´s, but there are some rom´s for locked bootloader.
Don´t forget to save your build.prop in /system befor you do something from the guide! With original build.prop you can flash your phone to O2 original software when there are something to repair in service center.
I have a problem with my Xperia P
the bootloader is locked so I am not able to unlock in and change the stock ROM for some other
is there some possibility how to put a new ROM into this phone ?
waiting for the operator to release the update will take ages
thanks
You can flash a generic firmware with flashtool.
Does anyone know how to debrand Sony Xperia P from O2 in UK (or just in general) ?
I have done some searching and there is some question about boot loader locks on some providers' firmware. Is this the case for O2 UK ? Does the boot loader need to be unlocked to put on generic firmware or change model id ?
Here is a procedure I found for debranding Sony Xperia S:
http://www.xperiablog.net/2012/03/26/debrand-your-xperia-s-tutorial/
This seems to be just changing the id of the phone, which then allows the Sony update service to put on latest generic ROM
Can the same one be used for Xperia P ?
This is FINE for me, I don't need custom firmware I just want generic stock firmware
Sorry for newbie questions but this is my first Sony Android phone (and a beautiful one it is too - no idea why this phone is not more popular)
thanks in adavance!
Unlock your bootloader and flash the generic ics image... I think it will be the best possibillity

Flash the generic firmware with Flashtool ..,
No need to Unlock your BL ..,some devices have unlockable Bootloader..,
But Flashing firmwares with Flashtool doesn't require an unlocked Or locked BL ..
It's easy as it sounds.. =)

Hello, I just bought a Z2 (D6503) that is never locked (SIM free), boot loader unlocked allowed YES but it has Vodafone firmware on it (Germany). Where do I get an EU generic firmware and how do I flash it?
Unfortunately Z2 is just released and there aren't any tutorials so that's why I'm asking you. Can I take the files from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2666849 and use this tool: http://www.flashtool.net/download.php to do it? Do I need to unlock the boot loader first? I would rather not do it if possible (yet).
Thank you.
