Since it says "bootloader unlock allowed: no" so I suggest to stay away from messing up your bootloader.

sacrificing it won't give you anything but damaging it. Please refrain from tempering with your bootloader.

Bootloader locked means u cannot load anything at boot that would tinker with the basic core of the device, like u cannot use custom kernels when ur bootloader is locked that is y ppl unlock their boot loaders Google for further info.
As for the OP's problem :
This is a known issue when u root ur device without unlocking bootloader, the solution to this is to do a full repair using Sony Suite which will result in loss of all data phone ,SD card etc .
check this link out its clearly stated over there
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2186368
Troubleshooting:
if your device has unlockable bootloader then after applying this hack the bootloader status will turn "Bootloader unlock allowed: No"
in that case dont worry the users have reported that doing a repair via SEUS will flash back stock firmware and turn this status to "Bootloader unlock allowed: Yes" (the same might also be achieved by flashing a stock FTF using FlashTool <yet to be confirmed>)
ROOT WILL BE LOST BY DOING THE ABOVE AND YOUR INTERNAL STORAGE MAY GET WIPED!
SO DO A BACKUP OF APPS & INTERNAL STORAGE ON AN EXTERNAL SDCARD/PC
How so some people can unlock the bootloader and some can't??

This have nothing to do with Unlocking Bootloader. Unlock Butloader now and you will be fine, with 4.3 the camera was fixed.
but on the info about bootloader unlocking it says not to proceed if bootloader unlock is no in service menu i dont wish to end with a brick

Have you tried unlocking? When this has happened on Xperia T's the devices were still able to be unlocked even though that had changed. There is absolutely no risk in trying to unlock an unlockable bootloader, it will just fail in the process and will still boot no problem.
It has never been reported a NO had turned to YES, but some Yes had been turned to NO, and they were still bale to be unlocked.
And before anyone gets excited this is by no means something that can be used to unlocked bootloaders that are really locked, it is just a false reading of the boot status.

Ok, so it's risky. Is not a big problem even if you don't unlock the bootloader but are you sure was saying yes before? this is wired.
You can flash updates and custom roms anyway. Not custom kernels. Sorry.
ok i am going to try to bootloader unlock it and report back
remote command not allowed i am stuck with a phone that i cannot bootloader unlock hope there will be an s-off solution for xperia
Hi, I have no way to unlock the bootloader. I have a code provided by Sony, after facilitating the IMEI. I can communicate with the device by the Bootloader mode, as it responds to my call giving his ID, but I put the code, it tells me that is not recognized, or you can not run this. I hope someone can help me quer. Thank you very much.
Dial
*#*#7378423#*#*
Goto service test and configuration
Read the bottom line.
if it says
bootloader unlock allowed: NO. then guess what, you cannot unlock the bootloader.
If it says something else, please post it here together with exactly what the command windows says
Hi. We already do, but do not understand the last thing you said.
Thank you.
He means. Go dial that number. Go service test. Configuration. Read Bootloader unlock yes or no. If say different post on forum post

Long time ago i saw a thread that a user was telling that he wasn't able to unlock the bootloader when he has using certain ftf files. It is pretty strange actually.
Try to downgrade your phone, maybe installing kk and try again mate.
Maybe this will help if you already don't know it. Take a look here. Way old that thread but maybe still guilty.
