Just look in the title for [LB], or if it's based off stock Sony FW it should work.
You'll find all roms for locked bl in the development section.. Original android dev is for custom roms. Go explore. It's not a hard job. Plus there aren't many. Just a few brilliant ones.have fun. :thumbup::thumbup:

Hey Guys,
I've been trying to try to get a root on my LT25i on JellyBean.
Till date, I am unable to get root.
I'm looking at using my Carrier's stock firmware.
Build: 9.1.A.0.490
Carrier: M1, Singapore
Read the all in one thread.
Downgrade to ics, Root, then follow the instruction s to upgrade whilst keeping root

Yes it is, just flash an ICS ftf

EDIT,
Sorry my mistake, now I am at my PC I can see you have a V.
In which case rooting is easy..just unlock you rbootloader and flash an insecure kernel.

There does not appear to be a method for locked bootloader.

You can use any Rom that is based on a stock firmware and kernel.
Make sure you have cwm recovery to flash Rom

Not unless someone manages to find an exploit to unlock it.

i heard you need to be on stock based firmware to install the recovery,
but you can flash on other roms and manually flash the kernel or something like that
im not too sure,

BL is already unlockable, one unlocked u lose all DRM, there is no need for exploit.
Root was needed just to push the recovery to the stock kernel.
And CM uses a completely different kernel than the stock and the only way to flash it by unlocked BL

Exactly. I'm not sure of the chances that non-unlockable devices will become unlockable. If I said any amount if time I'd be making it up :/
One of the devs said that Sony bootloaders are locked up tight though...

hello i would like to know if Xperia sp is Dual boot enable yet... and if you can flag any custom roms on it..
thanks
Sent from my C5303 using xda app-developers app
Dual boot requires a custom kernel that supports dual booting.
And for custom roms, there's the development section. There are a couple of stock based roms in there if you are interested.

Hey guys
I just want to ask you something about xperia sp because im going to buy this tomorrow (excited)
Guys how can i check the xperia sp if it BOOTLOADER LOCK or UNLOCKED?
and what is the advantage between LOCK and UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER ?
Sent from my GT-I8190 using xda app-developers app
Type this into dialer *#*#7378423#*#* go to service menu/configuration
If it says boot loader allowed YES you can unlock which will let you use custom kernels.
If it says boot loader allowed NO
then you can't unlock which means no custom kernels which may also mean custom ROMs maybe limited.

Because not everyone can unlock their phone and doing it voids warranty, but just rooting does not
