Recently, dear Santa Claus found out that I was a nice kid this year (like all others) and he decided to give me a nice SP in advance. Because im a very ''curious'' person, i want to know, if i can unlock the bootloader of my SP, in order to be happy to download all the goodies uploaded here.
CAN SOMEBODY HELP ME ???:crying:
Cosmote is a company in greece, so this thread caters to greeks mainly, but help from everywhere is accepted

just remember to backup TA before unlocking

I`m on COSMOTE too , but i`m from romania but my xperia is unbranded... if the phone is branded on cosmote i think you can not unlock the bootloader.. but that depends ..
just dial *#*#7378423#*#* go to service info then configuration and look there your bootloader unloked status is yes or no .. that`s very simple..
I have Vodafone and i live in Greece but i had no problem unlocking the bootloader because my phone is not branded.
Press the code to see if you can unlock the bootloader and then if it says yes keep the IMEI code of your device.This code is 15 digits long.
Then you go here http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/ and you type your name and your IMEI (only 14 out of 15 digits).
At last you will receive a code that you use to unlock the bootloader using flashtool.
love u man ,thanks a lot, h alliws poly

Hi all, I'm so sorry for posting this if there is similar thread. I've searched a lot about my problem, but still can't find a resolve. I want to update my Xperia T (LT30P) to JB 4.2.2, but my phone says "bootloader UNLOCK allowed:NO". I have read some threads but they are all too old and maybe outdated. I'll be very thankful if you help me to update my phone. Thanks!
Only if a rom uses a custom kernel you will need an unlocked bootloader. Stock based roms can be installed on a locked bootloader. There is however no 4.2.2 stock based rom, as there is no stock update to 4.2.2 (yet).
It really has all been covered in the All in One thread (sticky in this forum).

so I can't install even the CM10 ?
No I can't either for cyanogenmod you need a custom kernel which needs an unlocked bootloader
Sent from my LT30p using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Did you read the first few lines in the first post in the first thread in the Q&A section?
It clearly states that if it says no, then you cannot unlock.
No unlocked bootloader = no custom kernel = no Cyanogenmod
same
I also encountered cases similar to yours and send mail to sony but they say that this case can not be unlocked

Right. What happened in that thread was Sony Xperia support gave customers of Movistar (one carrier) an opportunity to make arrangements to send their phones to Sony, so they could physically unlock their bootloaders for them. Sony offered that service to that specific group of Movistar customers that had received SIM unlock codes from Movistar. It's a little bit of an exceptional situation.

I dont think that its an exceptional situation. I'm from spain (sorry for the misspellings), and Sony Its unlocking bootloaders from all providers, in my case one Xperia V from Yoigo (Telia spain) its now on the Sony service for changing the status from unlocking allowed: no to yes for free.
This situation its a mess from sony, because all the devices sold as unlocked where unlocked from provider and can be unlocked the bootloader. But the ones sold from providers and locked to them, once you obtain de unlock code (from Yoigo in my case) only unlocks from provider and not the posibility of unlocking the bootloader.
The conditions for changing the status of unlocking the bootloader are that you have previously unlocked the provider by any way, I mean buying a unlock code or obtaining it from your provider. And prove it with the unlock code + IMEI contacting with sony by email. Then in one or two weeks sony will contact you to take the phone to unlock. Try contacting Sony, you have nothing to lose.
If you can read spanish or translate it here you have to posts where I take the info:

Hi!
I got my V unlocked from Sony. I'm from Yoigo too and after conctacting Sony, they took my phone for free, changed the status to Yes and returned to me.
I read about it in the spanish forums htcmania (in the links provided in the previous post), tried it and worked
Hi there , I'm looking for someone on Xda who can Unlock my Xperia SP (T-mobile) for a low price.
Do you mean removing the Tmobile stuff?
If so you need to flash a unbranded stock ROM with flashtool
Do you mean SIMUNLOCK?
If so you need to contact your operator. Because you need an unlock code
The sp does not unlock with setools or similar. Like the other post said you buy a code

Debranding and removing sim lock does not unlock the phone to accept another sim card.....if this was all it took then we can all change carrier, tho I am no tech pro or dev etc I have had android phones for long time and know what will and what will not unlock the phone to accept another sim card.
All the method you talk about will allow you to do is change sim unlock no to sim unlock yes

I wanted to sim unlock my xperia SP C5306, and found a real cheap code deal (about 7 canadian dollars) here in this forum, from the advertisers.
But the couriosity drove me through a Google searching raid and found this:
http://sonyxperiaunlocker.wordpress.com/
But as I'm not an expert with these things, and am affraid of damage my phone or PC, I'm asking to the experient people in this forum, to check if it is for real, or just to input some virus on the phone, or something like that.
PS:
I downloaded the .rar, extracted, and checked with Avast, MS security essencials and Malwarebytes, and got all results clean.
Only didn't execute the file

If you're talking about a "bootloader unlock allowed: no" related issue, then your only possible solution involves the test-point above the battery (as outlined in this post) and some custom software by the developers of SEtool, and I have no idea if this will actually work, but most likely nothing else ever will.
Hello all, my question is simple, i'm starting with the history of bootloader and sony brand.
And I want to know if anybody know how to hack the bootloader or other methode to bypass Bootloader allowed NO.
My Sony xperia is Sim Locked with SFR but i can unlock it, even if it changes nothing ( i think ^^).
Thank you for all.
Ps : don't be hard with me, i'm starting.

No. There's currently no way around it and probably never will be, unfortunately.

No. Sony will not change your bootloader as their customer (your operator) is the one that requested a non-unlockable bootloader for their devices. So, they will direct you to your operator and they will not have the means to unlock it for you even if they wanted to.
