Hey guys, my bootloader unlock allowed status is no, but what if i unlock my SIM? Will it change to Unlock Allowed: Yes? I really wanna unlock the bootloader.
SIM unlocking and bootloader unlocking are two unrelated things.
You won't unlock your bootloader by unlocking the SIM.
To be exact, there is no way to unlock your bootloader by your own if bootloader unlocking is not allowed.
If your local laws grants you the right to gain full access over your device, you can try to send your device to Sony and ask them to unlock the bootloader by invoking these laws.
There is no guarantee that Sony will accepts to proceed, but I know that at least one person get an unlocked phone in France using this process (sorry I don't have the link anymore, I will add it later if I find it again).
Hope it helps,
Regards

Guys why we dont have OEM unlocking option ?
does that mean we will never be able to unlock the bootloader?
Verizon never allowed bootloader unlocking.
Help me, have my phone on bootloader mode and i don't have the code for unlock. Is there some way to unlock it without the code?
Hello guys,
Just a question for experts i do not need to do it, my phone it's rooted (OP7T) it's possible to bypass the unlock pattern without reset device and would it be easier since it has bootloader unlocked?
Thanks in advance
I have a oneplus from metro by T-Mobile and in developer options the OEM unlock option is there but I can't click on it is a really light color gray does this mean I can't unlock the bootloader? Please help I'm a noob
Apparently, your device is locked by carrier. I doubt that you will be able to unlock it. Anyways, according to your words I wouldn't advise to touch developer settings at all.
