Hello, I have recently purchased an Xperia Z from abroad. The problem is, it is carrier locked and I am unable to use my international sim card. If I root it without a bootloader, then flash a custom ROM, will it unlock the sim? I am not used to the Xperia Z, however I have had the Galaxy s2 and Note 2, and both sucessfully unlocked when they were carrier locked. However, it seems that Xperia Z has fewer resources. Is there a way to unlock it?
That will not work. You will have to buy an unlock code from an online seller. That is the only way if you're unable to contact the original network provider.
The network lock status is stored in the TA partition and trying to edit that unofficially in any way will permanently hard brick your phone.

i have vodafone spain mobile, how to unlock anybody know? im not in spain
Network/sim unlock? If you cannot contact the original network provider to unlock it, the only other way is to buy an unlock code from an online seller.
There is no unofficial way to do it, either by root or by flashing unbranded roms etc, before you ask.

i had flash unofficial rom byt doesnt help
ok so i posted a thread not long ago about this, now the answers helped, but not to the full extent. anyways the link they sent me to was
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/general/ref-how-to-root-4-4-links-guides-t2603358
it helped but in the device variants for XT1058 it said
"XT1058 - AT&T, Rogers, Claro, Movistar, Vivo, Oi, TIM - Sim Unlocked "
now i noticed Telcel isn't on the list? if i wanted to root my phone would the Claro or Movistar methods work? or all the XT1058 have the same methods?
Not sure if the blocking out was necessary but here is the box

Here is my System info
Thanks!
Your stuck on 4.4.2. There is no way to root a xt-1058 (bootloader locked) at this time. Your gonna have to wait, and downgrading is not an option as the 4.4.2 bootloader 30 b4 has a security option that doesn't allow a downgrade. That's the latest I've been reading.

i hope anyone can help me

i flash the same ftf but s1 boot is different
I tried to change in the but i cant find them
how i can obtain the same result?
I think that you cant use screen mirroring because you have an unlocked bootloader(seen some threads in xperia Z forum). For S1 boot i cant help you, maybe its based on when you've buyed the device or something else i dont know.
Dear Friends,
My REDMI 4X has No Service issue. It gets no network though SIM is inserted. I've tried many way out to gain network but ended in vain.
So how can I bind my account to "Mi unlock status" in developer option, as it wants me to add account with SIM (inserted) network!?

Hi, I have a Galaxy S20 5G FE from Verizon (SM-G781V) that I purchased while with Verizon a year or so ago. The phone is bought and paid for, and carrier unlocked. I've since switched carriers multiple times, so there's no question whether the phone is carrier unlocked. My question is can I unlock the bootloader to change the firmware on it? I really wish to get rid of the laggy Verizon startup animations, and remove all of the preloaded apps from the phone, and finally I wish to not have this notification each time I restart my phone that "The SIM is not from Verizon" (I'm well aware its not from Verizon I don't know why it always has to tell me). Thank you for looking.
This is the software info for the device.

I would also like to know. I fear it may not be possible yet, but I remain hopeful.
