That code, 11W29, stands for 29th week of 2011. Chips created from then and after have the security hole effectively closed.
So in short, you should NOT attempt to unlock.
No. As Chris said about the security hole, unfortunately your phone is a 2012 production meaning its to late.
So, unfortunately you can't unlock you bootloader.hope I helped

It's a hard brick.
The only thing you can do is send it off to Sony Ericsson. The motherboard has to be replaced. There's no way you can revive your phone yourself
Oh no... please, next time you wanna do something you are unsure of, please ask us first...

Yes , you have to send it off for repair. If your phone is under warranty , just tell them that you are unaware of what happened and suddenly the phone stopped working and responding.
The warranty is expired

You are a goner
Maybe find a mechanic/repair shop nearby who can do it at a cheaper price...
If nothing works , SE is your only option.

oh noooo, thats the end of it....... Your only choice is to either send it off to the nearest sony ericsson shop to get it repaired or send it to a repairman. I know someone who encountered the same problem 2 times! He sent it off to sony.....
hope it helps

Successfully UNLOCKED Xperia X8 11W35 just hour ago!
I was scared with all disccussions here but I wanted to try, however it could finish.
I had followed this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1254225
I am not encourageing anyone to do so, but it is good to know that 11W29 is not the limit, maybe it is 11W35?
Or maybe it has something with guidance? For me, guides by SpiderX were succsessfull.
U can by paid method
I have a one simple Question, Does any one know how to unlock the bootloder in sony xperia z (unofficially) officially not possible.
thank you.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2153261
However, note that the method in that thread will not allow you to unlock if the status of your bootloader is "Unlock allowed : No"
Check this by entering *#*#7378423#*#* in the dialler then look in Service Info -> Configuration

You said the official method was not possible, not that your bootloader is permanently locked. There is a difference, as there is an unofficial method of using your unlock token
The security on the bootloader is very very strict and is unlikely to be broken any time soon, if ever. There have been discussions on it by some very knowledgeable people on these forums and they all seem to conclude that there's no way around it.

If it was possible then there would be a thread about it and a link to it would probably be found in one of the stickys as there isn't and you can't then just like the rest of us you will have to wait.

Wow, I've been a member here for over three years, I've had an X10 an Arc a Ray and now an Z and I've never heard of Omnius before. Please tell me how that or any other such service is going to unlock unlockable devices.

Without an unlocked bootloader you can't use custom kernels which in turn means you can't use such ROMs I'm afraid.
Hi,
is there a way to unlock the simlock of a Sony Xperia Z1? I've already read about unlock,io, sim-unlock.net, worldgsmcodes.com, with the first beeing the cheapest at € 29, which I find quite expensive... Does anyone know of a cheaper method?

Sim unlocking is not something that XDA developers deal with as in some countries it is illegal.

I found, in my town, in Croatia same thing (they order lock code online) - order number online and that's the best solution.
But first, check is your phone "unlockable".

Being an ex at&t CSR agent, I was told my tech reps that once you use all unlock attempts and fail then you're screwed big time. Only way is to call sony CS.

That won't unlock it to work on another network that only removes bloatware. You need something called a pac code from the network it is currently on
D2303 5.1 deodexed z2 port+z5+X apps+themes, be,xr,sv,ad,XZRt2urecovery,xposed,z5 cam2.0,xLOUD,S-Force,viperaudio+more
Is there any way to unlock Z1 compact for free with some tool or something ?
Hello, what will happen when unlock bootloader? Anybody tried this on XZ2?
Most likely the same thing that happens on all Sony devices, loss of DRM license and some camera functionality. I won't be unlocking it.
I will be unlocking mine the first min I boot it up.
Android phone without root? Lol.

Let us know what happens to DRM keys. Hopefully it's not wiped but I seriously doubt that. Root is what is keeping me from changing my XZ.

Probably the same as the XZP; green pictures.
The real answer is nothing. Sony devices seem to drag on development... More than others in my experience. As tempting as it is, I won't so it until I can fake or backup the DRM keys.
I'm running out of reasons to root anyway.
Also, You will lose Ps4 remote play and you lose X-reality Engine
There will be a DRM patch as for all the previous Xperia devices...

Did you actually try taking pics even if the camera were black or did you just assume it didn't work?
Because Open Camera does work taking awesome pics with even if the screen is black.
