Read "FACTORY SIM FREE", ones that are sold to carriers even if they didn't locked it it is treated like carrier phone, means no bootloader unlock...
R: Custom roms and kernels?
No, i buy the phone with 499 euro free sim and no bootloader unlock!!

Just checked and it appears that there is a new FW certified. I hope this is for the UK generic as I have not received the 7.0.A.3.195 or .197 FW yet. I am still running 7.0.A.1.303.
Why not just flash the ftf?

It has not been released yet, it has only been certified by ptcrb, that does not even gurantee it will be released.

I do not want to change the UK generic FW I have now. I would rather keep it until I get the official update.

Hi guys,
Whats the latest UK Firmware?
My new Xperia T, bought on the 9th is running 7.0.A.1.303, does it include the batter features etc?
Thanks.

The 195 firmware in the all-in-one thread is for Vodafone UK (and one for O2 UK I've just seen added.)
Just like Batman, I'm waiting for the generic UK version. Up to you though SWFlyerUK.
Any difference between them?
My phone was bought from and locked to Orange.

Thats fine, but all you have to do is remove the bloatware and you will end up with a debranded FW, that is of course if you want to root, and on this FW you need to unlock the bootloader to do that.

none at all, you will just get some extra vodafone bloatware apps that can be removed with titanium backup, again with the proviso you want to root.
Thanks for the quick response, determined not to mess with this phone, so it's rooted but will keep bootloader locked and stock firmware

Thats fine, but if you update to .195 you will have to unlock the bootloader in order to root it again, unless a new exploit is found.
Hi all please help me
My phone was bought from and locked to Orange.
Orange blocks fastboot and assumes simlock.
can i unlock My bootloader? if so, how.
due to the original method: allowed-NO
(so sorry my english is poor)
Goto the dial pad and type
#*#*service*#*#
Look for the menu to see if bootloader unlocking is allowed.
If it is then follow my guide in the all in one thread on how to unlock via the official Sony way

bootloader unlock allowed:No
It is therefore another way?

Hi
Just wondering whether anyone has an XT bought from O2 UK, as I am looking to get one of these phones, and whether you were able to unlock the bootloader (do O2 allow it?)
Also, what state are CM10/10.1 in right now, as in what does/doesn't work.
Thanks

I don't have O2, but this has been dealt with several times in the forum before regarding unlockable phone or not.
Type *#*#7378423#*#* and check with "Configuration" for youself
@datagubben
I think he is asking before he buys the device.
@razzmataz1478
I suggest ask the salesman when he sells it to you, and if he cannot answer the question goto to vodafone, every single phone I have from them is sim unlocked and bootloader unlockable.

I'll be buying this online, as it's refurbished and quite cheap, albeit on a bad tariff (100MB internet :crying.
I did talk to an online adviser who was pretty useless and had no idea what a bootloader was, so that is why I came here to see if anyone with an O2 branded version could tell me. I shall wait for an answer

It'll probably be the same as my xperia T (sounds like the same deal i got), the bootloader is not unlockable on mine.
I'm on o2, got the Xperia t. I'm locked completely :/ we're hoping for a kexec or some other way around it by tampering in the ta, but nothing yet.

I'm fairly sure O2 phones are locked for good. I got mine off phones4u having cancelled my O2 order after finding out this was the case.

Hm that doesn't sound too good. I'm still thinking of getting the T but I was looking forward to putting some CM ROM on it. Guess I'll have to live without. Thanks guys.
What about flashing a generic ROM? Would that work? I've never owned a phone with a locked bootloader so I'm not sure how they work.

Of course they can....whats your point? Stock FTF's are complete stock roms.
Got my Xperia T on o2 through Tesco Phone Shop,
sim unlocked and unlockable bootloader.
My Xperia T is from O2 which was sim locked and bootloader locked.
Thanks to the folks at Cellunlocker.net, after emailing them, 2 days later my sim was unlocked, and my O2 sim was set on fire and extinguished through urination.
Cost £25 through Cellunlocker, O2 cost £20 AFTER 12 months usage.

True, He did say that, but since its blindinly obvious that that is allowed I interpreted his "generic" rom to mean a "stock based" rom, looks like we got our wires crossed.
Edit
To clarify the point
All phones can flash stock FTF files
Rooted phones with recovery can flash stock based roms and FTFs
Unlocked bootloaders can flash custom kernels, all custom roms, stock based roms and FTFs
Good that you clarified it Greg, I agree that it was not completely clear what he meant.

In fact, I just got mine yesterday, hoping to get the 4.2.2 soon. , so far the only issue is the Bluetooth drop out and freeze my MB Stereo, 2011, I have to shut down the car and restart, and hoping it work again. My HTC One work perfectly on this one.

I was exactly in the same boat as you till a couple of days ago. Bell's official veriosn is still 4.1.2 if you can beleive it!!
So i went ahead and flashed the 4.3 journalists rom thats available here. Works amazing..smooth as butter and blazingly fast.
No point in waiting for upgrade to show up on your phone. You'll be lucky to get 4.3 by middle of next year from Bell!! they're pathetic when it comes to sony upgrades..

Ftf files are original firmwares.
Can be flashed to unlocked or locked boot loaders.
Locked loaders only prevents to flash 3th party kernels.
