unlocking BL w29+

no solution for unlocking BL with 11w29+?
hope can some one can do it with no hardbrick? im 11w48 im so sad because of my lock BL?

For the last time, please don't open such threads. You can unlock it but there's a high possibility that you'll brick it. You can get it done by the paid method, but I'm not sure how that's carried out. You can ask some other members (via PM, not by creating threads) who unlocked their bootloader via the paid method. That being said, if you try it and brick and come to us crying, we are not going to compensate for your loss. That basically means XDA is not to be held liable for any damage. You are on your own, but we will try to help.
Summary: It can be done, but the risk is too damn high!

at the moment there is not a free one.
Also why did you open a new thread? if there was one you would find it easilly

We're so losing hopes and have to watch every SDE, JB roms, and some awesome ixperia roms just screenshots.. Also we want to swap.. But we never can... So sad for the stock kernel.. ;(
I have 11w43 locked bootloader, too.. Don't sad..

I have unlocked my (11W43) with flashtool and all the flash Drivers installed and then at first i root the phone, after that i have installed xRec then i downloaded a rom and have it put on my SD and then i have make me sure that i have the Original Firmware latest firmware installed or you will brick your phone so or so . Now you download a Kernel for your "Rom" then you flash the Kernel via Flashtool and you go into the Recovery after the first start and install the Rom. I make a Video Tutorial for that if i have time .

WAIT a second....you have managed to unlcok bootloader on your 11W43???
Are you sure its 11W43???
Maybe its 10W43....take another look and write down what is your number
If it's 11W43 then NICE JOB :victory:
I have 12W03 and I hope I am going to be able to unlcok it soon,without hard bricking it

i dont know how making these posts is going to solve problems for people who are let behind with locked bootloader. Instead of wasting your time try to find some 'work around' for it. Maybe you can come up with a solution. It is better than saying that we are losing hopes.

Yea but he unlocked 11W43....how did he managed to do that

Ok bro. I will try paid method for it. Hope it would solve and it's the last thing I can do. And I love My X8 too much so I won't change handsets.

Luck.
If you search, you'll find some reports of people successfully unlocking their phones with this kind of dates.
Some of these posts are then followed by people who attempted to do the same, but just bricked their phones.

the procedure is the same as unlocking bl for 11w28 below devices. BUT the risk is great. SOME have been successful, but the majority bricked their phones.

subscriber lock

hello.. my xperia x8 was originally subscriber locked and was unlocked by a technician (i ddnt know how and what he did) while being retained on stock and unrooted.
now the question is, will the unlock remain once i flash a custom rom such as ginger dx?
if not, how can i disable the subscriber lock?
thanks in advance for your replies..

Not at all....your bootloder remains unlocked always if it is done properly.

thank you for replying.. i hav more questns tho..
youre saying that the subscriber lock is with the bootloader?
would you consider using x8 toolbox in rooting the phone as proper?

Yes....you probably have unlocked bootloader.....would you minfd to look under the battery for a date number?
turn off phone
take out battery
look at the BACK SIDE of PHONE(not battery)
find something like 11W30 or 10W30 or 12W30...
Write down the number
Why would you want to use toolbox??
PRESS THANKS if someone helped,don't just say thanks

its 11w35. good thing the techncian ddnt brick it.
i want to install a custom rom and root this thats why i might need the toolbox, am i right?

-you can install flash-tools app (latest may not support x8) & download a custom kernel then flash kernel ... (read guides)
Then flash roms from recovery

can you ask your technician what method did he used to unlock it?
Don't install toolbox,download Flashtool
With Flashtool you can:
Root
Flash
Install apps
Clean
Install kernel
Install recovery
And for installing custom rom :
Root via flashtool
install recovery via flashtool
Put custom ROM .ZIP file on sd card
Flash custom kernel
go in recovery via phone(by pressing BACK button)
flash rom
tadaaa...you're done

what i remember is that the techncian used "credits" in unlocking but i'll ask him..
ok. flashtool it is.. im just concerned on losing the subscriber unlock and bricking the phone when installing custom kernels and roms..

[Q Help] Flash ROM's on Z1?

Hey to all XDA Users, I hope you are in good spirit today!
I am back again!
When I was flashing my HTC HD2 everyday I was close to a Professor now I upgraded to Xperia Z1 and I am stupid again as F...!
The Z1 I think is an awesome device but I am really disappointed for many reasons.
I can't select Governors and Frequences for low consumption of energy.
I can't put data folders on External microSD and use the internal Storage for Apps ONLY. (I am already out of storage).
I can't use many app because the OS is not rooted.
I don't have many Option in Settings to improve the Phone.
It's slow.
Drain Battery.
...ecx....
So like any Android Phone the best way to make it fly is to flash some good ROM.
How?
I was reading in the forum about some tricks to put the phone in some condition to flash the available roms but I really will be glad if someone can explain to me all the process to How flash the Rom.
I know is a stupid question but flash the Z1 is not even close to what I was doing with my old friend HD2 and I want to be sure to do all well.
Thanx in advance.

You should post this in the QA section, anyway, root your device first - install recoveries - download preferred rom - push to SD card - Reboot to recoveries - wipe system, cache and dalvik cache - Flash ROM. You should be fine

Can you help me and send me the right links for:
Unlock Bootloader,
Root the device on Z1,
Recovery for Xperia Z1
I got many threads with recoveries, what it means recovery for 518 & 526. Where I have to look on my device to know the right recovery?
bootloader link?

Er no, you do not have to unlock the boot loader to root Xperia devices.
Please just read the several threads that are in the general section and the one in this section to find out how to get root on the latest firmware version

In the above post of your you did not mention flashing roms, just rooting and installing recovery.
ALl stock based roms do not require an unlocked bootloader, and with those there is a lot you can do

If you unlock the bootloader you can flash any rom

Download and install Flashtool from here:

(Drivers are also in this package in folder drivers)
Download the rootable ROM from here:

For rooting read this post:

Download recovery from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45149758&postcount=1
And install it like describe in thread.
But, the most imortant thread for you as a new XPERIA user is doomlords thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2440565
The best kernels you ca use are from doomlord. But so far I can see he did not make a kernel for the latest firmware version. In the past (on my xperia S) you where able to chage Governors and Frequences. But wait for this a while. Unlocking bootloader is needed only if you use non stock based ROMs like CM, AOSP and so on. It's your choice what you want. There is no generelly answer for any ROM and situation, it depends only to your own needs.

[Q] Xperia T touchscreen just stopped working

I just turned on my phone but suddenly my screen doesn't function anymore. I doesn't react on me touching the screen. Anyone familiar with this? I turned it off for a while but after turning it on again, it just doesn't react on me touching the screen. The screen looks normal and so on..... A few minutes ago everything was still working!!! Please help !
Edit: also in recovery the screen doesn't react....
I have a Xperia T, unlocked bootloader(for a long time) and OmniRom 4.4.2 (for a long time as well). Haven't changed anything for a week, no flash or whatsoever.

Any other suggestions to solve this? Quite sad here..... Now that I have flashed the original 141 to my phone, I reckon I still have a unlocked bootloader and cannot hand this over to Sony to repair this under warranty? How do I lock the bootloader or even simply said; how do I flash it to stock so Sony can repair it?

I've had the same problem twice now on Omnirom 4.4.
The fix is it flash the ftf followed by a kernel elf file with a CWM recovery already eg DooMkernel on flashtool. Then reboot into recovery and flash .141 zip or similar do all wipes.

OK, read that you need an unlocked bootloader so I unlocked it again. Doomkernel says I need .145 as requirement. I have 141. Will that be a problem, since I cannot find a .145 stock that fast.

I unlocked the bootloader, flashed the Doomkernel and then the 141 but still no luck.....:crying:

OK, good news! After leaving it off for like 30 minutes, after doing the above, it worked again after turning it on again! I want to have it all back to stock, kernel and so on. Where do I find the original kernel for 141? By the way; I thought that 145 was the latest?

Recovery Partition and ftf brick

Hey guys,
I've recently bought the Xperia Z1. Now I have some questions which weren't answered in all the guides I read through.
1. Im coming from Galaxy S3 where the recovery is stored on an seperate partition. How is it on Z1? I saw that you will flash the recovery to boot. So if I flash for example that Dualrecovery it will overwrite my kernel or is it somehow seperated too?
2. I saw that "brickclub" where people bricked their phones, just by flashing an ftf using flashtool. So that mean I can hardbrick my phone by flashing an FULL ftf and not excluding anything?
3. And another one...do you think that this device is already dead? I mean the developer support and so on. Because it has already two successors.
It would be great if someone could answer my questions.
mischa_martin

Recovery is stored in the system partition where its protected by Sony RIC . You cannot hard brick a locked bootloader since you can't change the kernel or mess with anything else. z1 is still alive just Aosp ROMs are very hard to port due to barely no kernals so all development is done on Sony stock (Benefit for LB)
---------- Post added at 05:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:55 PM ----------
Also Dual recovery doesn't flash a kernal it just sends something to the system to process something then load into ram. If you reinstall a Ftf you lose recovery.

I thought Qualcomm and Sony were pretty open source and developer friendly. Aren't they?
And I didn't see many custom stock roms too.

Nooo. On LB you can only Softbrick. Only go there were you device absolutely don't work..
When you install recovery is uses an exploit which enable to disable Sony Ric then install recovery
Yes Qualcomm and Sony are open, but the Z1 just got aosp support from Sony. Remember we need Aosp kernals which are hard to make.

You can brick if you flash wrong ftf. As long you can still get into flashmode voldown and plug usb . that means your soft brick. I have been there.

Okay.
I see, that these bricks are caused by flashing parts of the .290 ftf or failed battery measure.
Sorry if I bothered you.
Just one question....
If I am on .133 can I flash .108 kernel to use that EasyRootTool?

Thanks for all your responses JPH, I learned more by reading this thread then going through the thousands of messages on the forum.
One more question though if I may, safestrap seems like a pretty good option for locked bootloaders given that you can install XZDualRecovery, yet I cannot find only a single post on this subject referencing a video from a year ago. Was it abandoned for a particular reason ?
Thanks
