It wasn't originally, a mod moved it to the correct section. It was originally in the general section. But when you ask a QUESTION and you want an ANSWER this is the correct section for it

Hmmm so if you won't have bravia engine back it means also that you don't have guaranty anymore?

I didn't lose my Bravia Engine when I unlocked mine...
Sent from my LT25i using Tapatalk 2
You didn't loser bravia engine, but you did lose your drm keys, and this can be spotted real easy.
They just need to hookup your device with Emma and it will say if you still have drm keys, and thus unlocked the bootloader sometime in the past.
Drm keys are not recoverable.
Luckily here in the Netherlands they aren't that strict in bootloader unlock xD

Really !? I live in the Netherlands, The Hague, i bought my xperia T via marktplaats (you know what it is) The dude had it from T-mobile(saw the rom) And i unlocked bootloader and got CM10.1 on it, so where do i send it so they wont rage about it ?
I just locked it first and send it to T-Mobile itself since I have a contract with them.
After a month i got a new phone xD
But my case was a non working touchscreen (which I learned later was probably recoverable in another way)
But I don't know if your case will result in the same result ofcourse.

Hi everyone,
I read on other forums that the Optimus 4X bootloader is locked!
means it will be impossible to make the root or something needs to unlock it and then make the root?
Very interesting information, so does have Optimus 4X really locked bootloader?
Or where do you read about it?
Thanks.
Yes, where did you read this?
Sent from my LG-P880 using xda app-developers app
Do you mean answer "yes" that Optimus 4X have locked bootloader or do you answering on the first question about root?

My question was whether the locked bootloader means that there will never be the root...
I understand, but my reaction was on the post from axepted, if he mented "yes" on the fact that the Optimus 4X have locked bootloader.
So, the question is still here: do Optimus 4X have a locked bootloader?
Even if it is locked, it doesn't mean root is impossible.
The HTC Sensation had a locked bootloader and we still got root

1) be careful about duplicated posts, post just once, no need to repeat what you say, people will help you if they can even by one post
2)yes, that's easy enough, just head over "Xperia T Android Development" section, and then go to the thread by DoomLord, there is a rootkit which will help you
wish you luck bro

I don't know mate, that's serious thing - it will, most probably end with a unusable device.

You found that zip here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39178406#post39178406
It is used only to fix the status being incorrectly changed to No when using the goroh_kun method to root. It does not make a non-unlockable bootloader into an unlockable bootloader.
What is the point in giving false hope with some random zip when you cannot remember where you found it or what it's even for?
Don't you guys think if there was a method to achieve the unlocking of a non-unlockable bootloader, that it wouldn't be stickied in this forum/the development section?
There is no way currently and may never be, as -
- The security used is extremely tight, with multiple security checks all reliant on each other. The bootloader unlock status is stored in the TA partition, therefore any attempt to bypass this security may end in hard bricking your device.
- I'm not sure anyone is even working on breaking it currently. If they are, then they're keeping quiet about it.

It can be changed (re-flash bootloader) by official Sony service center but there is no exploit. If you ask nicely they might be able to do it for you.
No possible, sorry.
