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...

Root, tell him to use Backup-TA to save his DRM keys, and then he can unlock the bootloader

Got an C6603, rooted with doomlord.
A locked bootloader.
Can I flash things as recovery now?
Ore is that only possible if the bootloader in unlocked?

Is it possible to relock the boot loader on the Xperia V? I am thinking it should be but haven't seen any instructions anywhere.
