Hey guys, i'm kinda still a newb with the xperia z1 so maybe my question was already answered, but i couldn't find anything.
I was wondering if it was possible to install a custom recovery, like cwm, with a locked bootloader. I found: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xpe...cked-bootloader-cwm-recovery-6-0-2-8-t2187363
wich is for the xperia Z. Does anyone know if this is gonna work on our z1 with 4.4.4 too? If not, is there any other way to get cwm on a locked bootloader. Thanks in advance

Hello there.
As far as I got no possibility to write there: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2244511 I have to ask my question here.
Is there any way to flash MIUI Rom posted by above link to my Xperia T with locked bootloader (no simlock though)?
Or if there is no such possibility, is there a way to modify that ROM and get it working with locked bootloader?
Thank you in advance.

Hi all, how can I root My Xperia? I've unlocked the bootloader, I have read several threads but I'm not sure about what method to use.
Any suggestion?
Thanks a lot!

you have unlocked your bootloader? The why do you need to root? Just flash a custom or stock based kernel.
PS, Can I ask why you unlocked your bootloader in the first place?

I unlocked it because I thought I had to before root it lol (I'm a sort of noobie, ehmm...)
Thank you for the answer!
Try reading the all in one thread. Its the first thread in this section.
I hope you understand that your warrenty is now null and void...
Ok, so I've upgraded to 4.3 and lost my root. As far as I know, to get root on 4.3 I will need unlocked bootloader to flash custom kernel and/or ROM. Unfortunately in the Service Info / Configuration of my phone it says: Bootloader unlock allowed: NO. So here's the question: is there any method of unlocking the bootloader other than official from Sony? Looking at the Xperia Z and ZL forums looks like there isn't, but maybe someone had succeeded on the Z1?
Thanks for any information.

Hello !
Let me ask you this quick question because I did not find an answer in the different topics on the forum.
I wanted to install Cyanogen 11 (Android 4.4) on my Xperia T but I get the message "Bootloader unlock allowed: No"
So I'm wondering if it is possible to unlock the bootloader.
Thank you in advance,

You can do anything that doesn't need unlocked BL. That means e.g. flashing stock ROMs, stock-based ROMs (most of them). But you can't flash kernels!
Just read every instructions really carefully so you won't brick your phone and everything will be OK
My phone is T. Xperia T.

You need to have a rooted ROM with CWM installed, and then install a 4.3 ROM that is rooted. If you don't want to do that you need to unluck your bootloader.
There are a number of threads dealing with the process, the best one probably from Matt.
