After of a few hours of driver issues (adb windows 8 sony xperia z too) I have managed to make them all work.
I tried root without unlocking, no luck with that method
I tried unlocking with flashtool, It said "Done", my first doubt is how I can check my bootloader is unlocked?
After this I tried unlocking with the official way (sony, and I got bootloop,on sony animation logo)
So I had to flash the 10.3.A.0.423 (the one I had previously which I flashed it with flashtool)
Now I think pictures look a bit worse because I have unlocked the bootloader and I have lost the Bravia Engine but maybe its just me, how can I check if I have unlocked succesfully my phone? If I have unlocked it I have lost the BE? I tried to save it with no luck because I wasn't root
How can I succesfully install a recovery for installing another rom? all the tutorials aren't working for me neither the locked recovery cwm or the unlocked one..
Can someone link me to other tutorials?
The order is Root, Unlock, Recovery?
Flash doom kernel with fastboot,it has root and recovery.
If it's successfully flashed that means you have an unlocked bootloader.

In service menu (*#*#service#*#*) it will tell you "bootloader unlocked" ; if it's still locked you'll have "bootloader unlock allowed : yes"
My phone says bootloader unlock allowed no but if i restore a different TA from one that could be unlocked could that change it to bootloader unlock allowed yes?

So..my xperia z (first one) had some problems with the back and water got in, and oRange gave me another new one back..
The thing is that the new one has " bootloader unlock allowed: yes"...
If its yes..this means that I can install a recovery without losing my waranty...and the bootloader is unlocked ? Or what

No it means that you can unlock your bootloader which will void your warranty and enable you to install custom kernels but remember to back up your ta partition before unlocking. Custom recovery can be installed on a locked bootloader anyway.

If you want to root and you have a locked bootloader, I'd suggest using towelroot.
