They r DRM, so unlocking BL means losing them forever.
u can relock BL again and restore them back, it worked with XS but i dont know if any dev was able to relock XZ

Can the bootloader unlocking sim-unlock your x8? Via Flashtool? Why is it my x8 still requiring a code for other sim/network to be use?

Obviously reading/searching forums is not your strong suit. You should always read all the details/warnings surrounding unlocking your phone, before doing so, which is why my phone is locked and I am only using root and CWM
Use Screen Adjuster lol

KA04 Xperia Z revolution ROM has Bravia Engine 2 working on video playback without having to relock bootloader. Probably other ROMs too, but I haven't looked into it.
You really aren't missing much though, it just over-saturates everything. I think it's much worse.

Are you sure, this is not with locked boot loader? because if bravia is gone it's gone. I would imagine it is a emulation of BE2
I also do not see in the change log bravia engine even mentioned, I am sure it would if they have this

Everything works for me too with unlocked bootloader. Except for OTA updates.
It's really? I forgot to backup my TA and DRM keys while I was unlocking bootloader. Re-locking bootloader will bring my Bravia Engine back?

I have an Xperia SP currently running 4.1.2 rooted, bootloader locked.
My aim is to upgrade to 4.3.3 and root, for which i will have to unlock the bootloader. To do so I need a TA partition backup , for which again, root is required.
So, my question is that is it okay if I take a TA Backup now [in 4.1.2] and then upgrade OTA and unlock bootloader, root and then restore the 4.1.2 TA backup onto 4.3.3 in order to restore DRM keys and Relock the bootloader?
Has anyone done this?
is it safe?

Yes, TA partition is not firmware related you can restore it in any stock firmware (don't try to restore your TA on a custom rom) test your back up first and make a many copy

Mine is unlocked too.
I received a new firmware update, not installed it yet.
But my previous updates, such as Walkman, movies, and album are able to be installed via OTA update...

[Q] BIONZ work after relock the bootloader?

Hi guys!
I've read several threads about loosing the BIONZ after unlocking the bootloader. Some say it depends on DRM, some say it has nothing to do with. It's possible to regain it after relocking the BL?
What is truth about this?
Unlocking bootloader makes no change to software...just make sure u have a TA backup....

Actually it does make a lot of changes to the software. Just take a look at the stock rom logcat straight after booting. There's a check if bl is unlocked and if it is then it wipes some stuff.
TA backup is very important before unlocking it so u can go back to LB and send your phone in for a warranty. I can't tell what's up with the bionz as I've unlocked my BL and then restored it, but the camera doesn't seem to be as good as it was. That might be caused by 4.4 firmware though. Can't tell for sure.

some unlock bootloader guys confirm track ID work but they cant use update music info feature in walkman app, x-reality stop working, picture quality lower than lockbootloader
( im not sure, just read from google, should we make a thread to vote and confirm what feature stop working after unlock bootloader ?)
I can say it like this then.
I unlocked lost drm keys forever. I relocked my phone using flashtool. Drm keys still not there according to what we know.
But all the functions you mention works. I've compared pictures with ones that comes from a locked bl with never was unlocked. They are the same quality. The other functions you mention works aswell.
And remember now, I don't have any drm keys. But I have relocked bl. I unlocked last night again. And I actually checked these things just to see and guess what. They all still worked.

Yes, it totally wipes all data on the phone, e.g contacts, messages, call history, apps and data, and everything which belongs to internal storage.
You should get a backup before you unlock your BL.
You should just unlock it if you wanna root, and be aware of its pros and cons

After I rooted my Z1, I figured out that there's no need to unlock BL for root

Yes it is well known that there is no need to unlock in order to root
However, he has a Z1S. There is no way to root that phone at all, so the point is moot.
He cannot unlock the boot AND he cannot root.
Really? Z1S is unroorable? Or it's like Z1 kitkat, hard to root?

Its impossible.
Z1 KK is rootable because you can downgrade.
There are no rootable firmwares for the Z1S as it was introduced on 4.3 which has no root exploit.

you can only do that after unlocking the bootloader. But doing it that means you do not get to back up your TA.
Unlocking the bootloader is an easy way to get root, but not always the best way

AT the time I wrote that it was impossible, but yes root has been achieved.
However, unlocking the boot on a Z1S is still impossible
