I was wondering if there is a kernel for locked bootloader??
Nope, you need to unlock the bootloader in order to flash a custom kernel.

How kan i install recovery or cwm with bootloader locked.
My statu for unlocked bootloader is : no
Do You have one way to install this please

I don't think there is currently a way to do that. If you were to flash an unbranded firmware onto the phone would that allow you to unlock the bootloader (allowing installation of CWM)? I can't unlock my bootloader due to my PC being broken.

I'm waiting for a solution as well. it should not be that hard as they have a solution for the xperia s with a locked bootloader.
maybe some very wise and helpful dev can port cwm for us xperia t owners with locked bootloaders.

Flashing unbranded firmware will not allow you to unlock the bootloader if you currently cannot unlock it.
Well, no promises of any kind, but there is that one user which claims that after updating to 3.195 the bootloader status changed from non-unlockable to unlockable.
I have to stress out, I cannot confirm nor explain this and I do not propose that anybody tries this.
But we all know where this is going, right...? Sic...

Its safe to try, as long as you have a .ftf made from your original rom or are prepared to flash one the .303 .ftf's found in the all in one thread
I've flash one week later the 3.195 and my statue dont change.

For people with the lock bootloader cant you unlock it through the official Sony site? i thought Sony allows you to unlock bootloaders on their devices...

Sony does, but some carriers (Especially AT&T) block it.

You can ask, but I bet they say no.
up to date, any method to unlock it?
Seriously?
I also have this problem, the boot loader is locked and I need to install the recovery. Prompt really working bootloader unlock method, none of the methods I did not ride. Through the website Sony have an error occurs, full of requests to install the update file, it weighs 1.5 gigabytes. I do not have as much Internet traffic to download it.
Currenty is possible if you are both rooted and in FW 303. Try this.
After of a few hours of driver issues (adb windows 8 sony xperia z too) I have managed to make them all work.
I tried root without unlocking, no luck with that method
I tried unlocking with flashtool, It said "Done", my first doubt is how I can check my bootloader is unlocked?
After this I tried unlocking with the official way (sony, and I got bootloop,on sony animation logo)
So I had to flash the 10.3.A.0.423 (the one I had previously which I flashed it with flashtool)
Now I think pictures look a bit worse because I have unlocked the bootloader and I have lost the Bravia Engine but maybe its just me, how can I check if I have unlocked succesfully my phone? If I have unlocked it I have lost the BE? I tried to save it with no luck because I wasn't root
How can I succesfully install a recovery for installing another rom? all the tutorials aren't working for me neither the locked recovery cwm or the unlocked one..
Can someone link me to other tutorials?
The order is Root, Unlock, Recovery?
Flash doom kernel with fastboot,it has root and recovery.
If it's successfully flashed that means you have an unlocked bootloader.

In service menu (*#*#service#*#*) it will tell you "bootloader unlocked" ; if it's still locked you'll have "bootloader unlock allowed : yes"

yes, you need either to unlock the bootloader via htcdev or s-off.. then you can flash a custom recovery and flash a superuser app..

no, its not possible. you would be stuck on boot since the bootloader is locked and wont allow the phone to boot with root access on.
Hi, any news on this topic? I'd like to root my phone without unlocking the bootloader (just so I can keep the warranty)
still not possible

You can re-lock your bootloader with SRK Tool before you have to send your phone for service.
