Why you're using flashtool instead of fastboot if your bootloader is unlocked either way?
You can try to flash Lollipop 5.0.x ROM : PABX's ROM YUGA 5.0
The instructions are written in the page, but before that you need to download android SDK.
After you will be done that either, you will need to go /sdk/platform-tools/ (where fastboot.exe and adb.exe are installed), then with holding SHIFT button press Right Mous Button and push "Open command prompt here". And then just write the commands which are written in the page, again.
And don't forget to install adb and fastboot drivers.

So my phone bootlocker has been unlocked right ?
Can I do anything to relock it?
I don't have old TA partition because I've bought an used phone and I just want to use stock ROM

If via *#*#7378423#*#* shows, that status is : "Bootloader unlockED: YES", then yes, your bootloader is unlocked and your DRM keys have been erased permanently, without any way of getting them back (if you don't have TA-Partition backup, of course). If status is : "Bootloader unlock ALLOWED: Yes", then your bootloader isn't unlocked and yours DRM keys is in their "place".
If your bootloader unlocked, then you could ask the person you have bought your phone from for TA-Partition backup, if he/she has it.
If not - don't ever think to flash anyone else's Ta-Partition, otherwise you'll brick your phone permanently.
You can relock it via Flashtool, If I'm right. But it doesn't change the situation you're in, 'cause your DRM keys are lost and you'll not be able to use BE2, Clear Audio+ and other fuctions, which requires the DRM keys to be working.
I'm sorry about that.
You can still flash stock .FTF, I suggest you to flash Generic.
If error persists, you could try other .ftf to fry for flashing.

It's show me Bootloader unlock allowed: Yes. I've flash C6603_10.5.1.A.0.292_Generic_NCB.ftf for my device but it show the above error.
Then I flash C6603_10.1.1.A.1.307_Generic BE.ftf it's all right nothing error.
Both of them are GENERIC but the 292 ftf error.
Could you please help suggest me which 292 ftf not error on my device.
And one more thing strange, I can't update my device with OTA even on 307 TFT. Someone say it only happen if my bootloader unlocked
I just tried C6603_10.5.1.A.0.292_Generic_UK.ftf too but it still error
The fact is I can't only flash which FTF include S1_Boot_Lagan_1.0_2 that mean I can't update my S1_Boot ?

Well, you've not unlocked your bootloader. Your bootloader status is locked. However, do you have flashtool drivers? You could give a try on another pc, maybe your pc is causing issues, like mine (my os is Windows 10 and doesn't support fastboot and adb, as I can see).

Hi,
I'm having the same problem with the "Rooting status: unknown".
I can't flash kernel (via Flashtools) and can't unlock (via android fastboot).
Unfortunately the file posted in the solution you mentioned is unavailable.
Can you tell me how you proceed to fix it?
Thank you very much

I was flashing a stock rom for my xperia z ultra c6833.
After that, the flashing proccess started and done without any problem. When i put the sim card in the phone, it says: "Invalid Sim card" and in the service menu says: "Rooting status: Unknown". Before this, the service menu said: "Rooting status: Unlock Bootloader allowed: yes" then I unlocked my bootloader without any problem and everything was perfect, but after that flashing on flashtool the Rooting status change to "Unknown" and my sim card are unable to read. There is no problem with my sim card because I tried to put it on another phone and works perfect.
How do I fix it?
How I change the roothing status back to "allowed: yes"
and how I fix it to be able to read my sim card again?
and what ? any solution ?

yes the bootloader is unloack but i had my phone rooted before then had to use pc companion to repair it, ive unlocked it again to be sure.
It seems driver problem.
I met the same problem as well as others yesterday, when I unlock, relock, re-unlock, root locked, root unlocked, flash recovery... for some crazy reason.
Try these:
Connect to flashtool (beta2 or beta4) with device power-on debug off, to see if flashtool can recognize it, and how much it can recognize.
Connect to flashtool with device power-on debug on , to see if flashtool can recognize it.
Connect to flashtool with device in fastboot mode, to see if flashtool can recognize it.
Connect to flashtool with device in flashmode, to see if flashtool can recognize it.
Flashtool may fix some driver error. I just succeeded after hours of bungling like that.
Good luck.

Plz Help
same issue...
Has anyone found a sure fix for the issue presented by the original post? I am having this issue and I have tried different drivers, ftf's, computers, adb/fastboot/versions and flashtool versions. I have unlocked and relocked. Is rooting status "unknown" normal after bootloader unlock? -Z Ultra 6833 EU
Still no solution?
With my C6603 it does not allow to write boot aswell. Any final solutions?
edit: solution found: bootloader was not unlocked

This is the wrong forum to ask this. This is the Xperia Z section.
Despite that, you need to unlock your bootloader to flash kernels via fastboot.

After months using stock everything I decided to flash CM11 yesterday, I'm doing exactly same step as I was doing when on 4.1/4.2 but it seems like it doesn't works, I'm not even sure that my BL is unlocked despite success message, when trying to reboot after unlock BL I had a bootloop and when trying to recover with Sony's Flashtool it says 'device not unlocked'. So I repaired with PCC and restarted from scratch but same results today.
I'm totally lost as like I said I was doing exactly same thing on the same PC.
Edit : Now my XZ doesn't even start! I have the red led blinking while connected with usb, power+ Vol+ doesn't do anything, no vibrations at all!
I was on latest sony official ROM
Edit2 : Tryied again to recover with Sony's Flashtool but it says "Mobile Locked" that's crazy!

fastboot remote command not allowed Xperia Z3
I unlocked my boatloader, but have no way to confirm that it is still unlocked. I'm running Windows 7. Fastboot used to work just fine before I unlocked my bootloader. FLASHTOOL works fine. But if I try to flash anything with fastboot I get the remote command error. Can't flash recovery. Can't flash boot image.

Look in the service menu to confirm if your bootloader is unlocked.
Enter *#*#7378423#*#* in the dialler, then look in Service info -> Configuration. It will say "Bootloader unlocked: Yes" if it's unlocked.

By installing FLASHTOOL by Sony I was instantly notified that my bootloader was not unlocked, even though I had already unlocked it three or four times without any errors. So I unlocked it again. Then fastboot flashed my images just fine.

Well, sad to say, but you don't have the warranty anymore, as you have unlocked your bootloader, within erasing all your DRM keys (ironic, I know).
But if you have a TA-Partition backup, then you could just push in, (just be sure before pushing TA to flash stock .ftf with its kernel) and your DRM keys are back. Then you could proceed futher for warranty service.
Firstly, if you don't want go to warranty, try to flash Pabx Lollipo (it's stock lollipop). After that you could check if it has been fixed and flashing commands are properly working

DRM keys are stored in your TA-Partition, they're required for many functions to work: Clear audio, Camera functions, Official ROM and it's updates (If i'm right with this one) and other.
I recommend you to download android SDK, then go to it --> Platform tools --> SHIFT + RMB (right mouse button) --> Open Command Prompt Here.
After that, shut down your phone. Wait atleast 30 seconds. then by holding Vol +, plug it into PC. Blue LED should show up.
Then in CMD type this:
fastboot devices
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It should be returned some numbers and letters. If it doesn't show anything, then your windows maybe doesn't support fastboot or you don't have drivers to that (fastboot + adb drivers).
Make sure in this folders are fastboot.exe and adb.exe (the most importantly to us is fastboot.exe) and some other files as well.
If ir returns information correctly, then you can download any rom and extract it (I sugges you to use Pabx).
Extract everything from .ZIP/.RAR, you should see system.img, boot.img, userdata.img. Place them into platform-tools directory (where fastboot.exe and other files are).
Then simply write these commands in CMD:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If everything will go OK, then you can reboot your device:
fastboot reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Then your phone should start normally, after that you can manually install CWM and other things either.
If it didn't work, just quote me regarding the problem, I'll try to help you

I'm sorry to tell you, but you phone doesn't have warranty anymore and specilized Sony staff won't take it for fixing, as you have unlocked your bootloader, so you need take it to local repair service (Sony might fix it, but with some price of course).
Either way, you can try install drivers on other computer, if you have one, then try on it.

Yeah, if your phone is psychical damage (overheated) and doesn't turn on, then they may change it for you to another one, but If they will bring the life back to it, they would be able to see if DRM keys are in their place, and even if you've re-locked your BL, it doesn't change the situation at all, because in the service menu they could check if DRM keys are not erased, if so - they will not fix it under the warranty

@m1k8 I suggest you to use Validus ROM. Just now I'm waiting for 5.1 update @shoey63 - of course he has phone with an unlocked bootloader, even he said so, that means he just pre-installed it by himself

09-03 for now. I'm not sure which version was perfect working, as the newest 03-11 isn't working properly as it should to.
Now I'm waiting for the update to 5.1.. I do know that from 03-08 there will be lots of bugs : screen always on, even if you turn of it just will turn to grey color, that's all, ambient auto display doesn't work either and some other problems.
So, I suggest you to try only from 03-03 to 03-08

xperia z c6603 IMEI corrupt and restarts after flashing a c6602 firmware

I have a sony xperia z c6603 , it was never unlocked from the start but it worked very fine on its original firmware, android 4.1.2. But then someone flashed a c6602 android 4.1 on it and now the IMEI is corrupted and it restarts every 9.3minutes.
It says bootloader unlock allowed: Yes which I guess means the bootloader is locked and can be unlocked, but since IMEI is corrupt, i cant request for unlock code from sony or use fastboot.
My only other option is the famous flashtool. I have three issues with flashtool.
1. I already downloaded the correct firmware and preparing to flash, so I click on the flash icon and start flash (Using Androxyde flash tool). It goes through the normal process and then an empty device selector screen comes up, with no option but to cancel. and when i cancel, it says "loader not found for this device"
2. Okay, after step 1, i am thinking "maybe i have to unlock the bootloader first" so i click on the BLU button and connect the device in flash mode, it starts and the empty device selector screen comes up again, once i cancel, it says "your device can not be officially unlocked"
3. So i did a little bit of digging around on here more and found that i have to update xflasher.jar to beta6, and so i did and flash tool started as "androxyde and bin4ry flash tool" .Only problem is when i click on the flash icon and choose flash mode, nothing comes up, i cant get into flash mode. but I can get into every other thing like fastboot mode and BLU
Please if you think you have an idea on how to solve this problem, please reply. I cant afford a new phone and I would also like to know if my phone can be repaired too, I also dont have a lot of time to waste trying to repair it.
try to reinstall flashtool after deleting it first .. install fastboot and flashmode drivers and drivers for ur device from drivers folder in flashtool folder.. disable any antivirus and any app that could interfere and unplug any usb device ... try to flash with flashmode

[HELP] Xperia Z Can't boot, stuck in locked bootloader without IMEI

Hey, I have a Xperia Z C6602 running 5.1.1 and firmware version: 10.7.A.0.222
I was trying to root the device but got in trouble.
I used this guide to root the device but soon after Super-SUme got installed & updated, the device was supposed to reboot but it just shows "Power off ; restart ; take screenshot " options and nothing else.
I went into fastboot mode:
Code:
fastboot devices
worked but couldn't flash recovery.
I can't unlock the bootloader since I don't know the IMEI code. I don't have the phone box or receipt to check the IMEI.
Please help.
THANKS IN ADVANCE.
I install the emma. It show imei. Then i unlocked bootloader.
You should install flashtool from:
http://www.flashtool.net/index.php
It's a multipurpose tool for Sony Xperia Devices!
Be sure to install the right drivers "Devices -> Check Drivers" for the Xperia Z.
If you are running Windows 8 64-Bit or a higher version you need to disable Driver Signature Verification before installing the drivers!
Example guide: http://www.howtogeek.com/167723/how...8.1-so-that-you-can-install-unsigned-drivers/
If everything went well you can now connect your phone to the PC and the Flashtool program will be able to recognize it.
As far as I remember it, the boot loader unlock from flashtool will automatically save your "DRM-Keys" so you will be able to restore them later on to your phone, which also relocks the boot loader (but you might want to check on that before doing the boot loader unlock process as you won't be able to restore the DRM-Keys if you loose them once!).
Now you press the "BLU" button inside flashtool and it will guide you through the progress!
I hope that will help you! If not, feel free to ask!
