I don't get this...
You ordered your SIM unlocking code from web (using your IMEI) and it failed?
Or you just entered some random numbers?

If for some reason you sent a wrong IMEI you get a wrong Code.

[Q] Sony Xperia 5303

Little stuck with a S X 5303.
I have rooted it no worries, but cant unlock it as the flash tool tells me it cant be officially unlocked. Help?
I used the DooMLoRD easy root, but not sure how to apply the custom kernel so I can flash this phone and unlock for any network.
Please advise? Dont want to be stuck on 02....

Have to install a custom recovery before you can install any kernal,
To unlock it buy a unlock code as far as im aware there is no way to do this other then that. I started a thread about unlock on this device before.
Also all the information you need can be found in the sp c5303 forums, Go take a look

Sim unlocking and bootloader unlocking are Completely different.
To flash custom kernels,you need your bootloader unlocked search on Google Sony sp bootloader unlock for guide etc.
To unlock sim to any network then you need to buy a code or take to local phone shop for them to unlock.
Rooting will never give you these options it just allows you to customise your phone, give you control over device.

OK. I may be being thick here. I have googled guides as suggested, but my bootlocker status says NO. So, not possible? And the 2 sites i tried for sim unlock both were unable to get a code and refunded my money...
Help?
My Galaxy S2 was no bother.... :crying:

Your bootloader is locked because your SIM is locked. Your carrier can give you an unlock code if you're not on contract

[Q] Why there isn't any way to unlock the carrier locked BL?

Hi guys,
My question is simple (please notice that i am a noob) i just wanna know why there is this block, becuse it's really annoying. And if this is not pernament then is anybody working to unlock it?
thanks in advance!
I think its locked for at least 2 reasons:
1.-Its locked so you CAN'T use another carrier's SIM card (Not very sure about this)
2.-Its locked so you CAN'T hard brick your phone
Maybe we don't need to unlock it: http://www.xda-developers.com/android/locked-bootloader-xperia-s-and-want-cm10-no-problem/

[Q] Unlock network

Hi,
Just like to ask if there is a possible way to unlock the network on Sony Xperia V without rooting? My phone is only locked to one network and I want to unlock it (maybe some unlock codes to input) for other networks sim card.
Please help.
Thanks!
It has nothing to do with rooting, it is unlockable using unlock codes.

I see. So anyone can help to generate any unlock codes for this device?
Thanks!
You can get an unlock code from the provider it is locked to
