Bootloader unlock allowed:no solution Xperia V - Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V

hi, i was wondering if there's a solution found in changing the status of Bootloader unlock allowed:NO to YES. i went to the sony service center yesterday and start asking if they could change the status or even unlock the bootloader but they didn't know what the heck I'm saying, they even don't know the what is a bootloader. Even my provider doesn't know how to unlock it. everyday im scouring the forum to find a solution but to no avail. I want to flash the cm build but i can't since the restriction. any help and guides will be appreciated.
thanks

How to unlock xperia x8

Hello everybody. This is my first post in this forum and first of all I want to thank everybody for the great work they do everyday.
I have a sony ericson xperia x8 locked with a network code. I want to unlock my phone and use it with any other sim. I've done several researches in internet, but i could't find any solution to my problem. I'm sure that this network lock has something to do with the software of the phone. I've unlocked the bootloader, flashed a costum room, but nothing happened.
I'm sure that someone in this forum is able to help me and other people that have the same problem to unlock our phones. I'm sure that this has something to do with the software of the phone. Is there any way to delete all the software of the phone and install everything again??
I want to thank everybody for the answers.

The network lock is at the bootloader. To unlock the phone you need to modify the bootloader. Do you know any tool that can modify the bootloader, or some other way to do it? Thanks.

I've already payed to unlock my xperia x8. Theydid the job for 10 euro. What they did was reload a new modified bootloader and that was it. It was done with usb cable and a software downloaded by the site that offered the unlocking. So the network lock has something to do with the bootloader. I just wanted to know if there is any way to modify the code of the bootloader and reload the new modified bootloader.
Anyway thanks to everybody for the answers , and I hope this post might help other people that have the same problem. Mabay it can be found a way to modify the bootloader and offer a free unlocking for the other users. Thanks again everyone.

[Q] Xperia X8 Unlock-Sim question.

Hello! I'm sure I have read a post on the forums about this a few months back but cannot find it for the life of me so apologies if its been asked already....
I want to sim-unlock my SE x8 E15i. The phone was running custom kernel and ROM (with unlocked bootloader).
I've now restored the phone to stock (both kernel and rom) and relocked the bootloader - Its nowe back to "factory" settings.
I'm now ready to call and pay my provider for the sim-unlock code....
My question is, once the phone has been SIM-unlocked am i free to unlock the bootloader to flash kernels and roms WITHOUT loosing the sim-unlock which i have paid for.
I've tried to find out more about how the IMEI number and the unlock code behave (e.g. where the unlock code is saved to. Im not sure if it's in the bootloader. If it is will unlocking the bootloader mess up the unlock codes? etc).
Many thanks in advance.

[Q] Help: Sony Xperia Z1 says cannot unlock bootloader

How can I install a custom ROM without an unlocked bootloader?
My phone says its bootloader cannot be unlocked
Mine too , it's must to be a solution to unlock the bootloader...
No, there is no solution
If it says it cannot be unlocked then it cannot be unlocked
Look in the development section for stock based custom roms that can be installed with a locked bootloader
To my experience it needs to be sim unlocked first in order to be bootloader unlocked. In a Xperia Z it said it couldn't unlock bootloader, i purchased unlock code, got it unlocked and then reflashed stock image. After that the status on "bootloader unlock allowed" was changed to yes.

Please provide proof of that, because this has never happened before and would be fantastic news
Also, some sim locked phones can have bootloaders unlocked and some sim free phones have bootloaders that cannot be unlocked. SO your logic is wrong.

Can't provide proof as 1) the bootloader was already unlocked 2) I don't even have the phone anymore.
I don't know if you find my logic right or wrong it was what happened to MY experience with one phone.
I'm pretty sure devs can give you a technical explanation about why it can or can't happen.

OK thanks.
I know what the devs will say. They will say it cant happen. This has been talked about ad infinitum across various xperia devices.
Also, if your boot was already unlocked then how did you know the status changed?
Thanks anyway.

When i got the phone (telcel mexico) it said the bootloader was not allowed to be unlocked.
I purchased an unlock code. Entered the code, unlocked the phone.
I flashed an upgraded FW via FTF
typed *#*#SERVICE#*#* and boom bootloader unlock statys changed to yes
That's how i know the status changed. So basically that's my story. I thought it could work with every device.
@gregbradley maybe the sim unlock method really works to change unlock bootloader status YES..bcs it works for some sony device, and we need to test this on Z1.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1896553
There is nothing in that thread that confirms this. Plus the test point method to unofficially unlock the bootloader was stopped by Sony nearly 2 years ago.
But please, delve into this again if you want. But trust me it is a dead end and does not work. If it was easy as sim unlocking and flashing a ftf do you not think that would have been done by now.
Some seriously good devs have been working on this ever since the test point method was closed.

[Q] Bootloader not allowed

Hi,
I have a Sony Xperia SP and to perform all the procedures to unlock the Bootloader in the initial part that says if our machine can unlock the bootloader or not , mine says it is not allowed .
My questions are:
Why is this unlock on some devices is allowed and others not?
Even if the information that shows my device , it is not possible to unlock the bootloader , I wonder if there's another way to do it or even impossible to do ?

Your service provider doesn't want you to unlock your bootloader and there is no way of unlocking if it says not allowed.

Thank you!
By the way... do you now if its possible, someday, create the version 4.4 KitKat in *.ftf extension so I can install through the Flashtool?
In simple words no. But you can install cm11 on locked bootloaders. Just search for it in the development sections.
Hit thanks if helped.

I also have the bootloader status set to NO.At the moment,there is no way to make it say YES,unless you SIM unlock it(It must work,as in most cases it is the SIM lock which changes the status to NO).

[Q] Root Access and bootloader unlock status as No.

Ok i bought this z3 compact today and really want to remove all the bloatware which comes pre installed however my rooting status is the following Bootloader unlock allowed: No
What can i do to root my phone, i searched around a bit and all i can find are the tutorials to do this with the Bootloader unlock allowed: Yes
i dont really care about the DRM camera problem as i use the camera very little and have no problems with unlocking the bootloader but i cant seem to find info on how to do this with the " Bootloader unlock allowed: No" status .
any help is greatly appreciated.
Z3 Compact Model: D5803
At the moment there is currently no root solution for locked bootloaders unfortunately, a bounty thread has been created here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-compact/general/bounty-root-unlocking-bootloader-method-t2940539
Where did you buy the phone? Is it possible to return for a refund and find a retailer that sells unlockable models?
On the other hand, bloatware can be removed via ADB on unrooted devices. Thread in Z3C android development section
O2 store, oh well happy enough to remove the bloat ware as mentioned above.
Thanks for the swift reply guys really apreciate it.
Stay classy.
I'm not really sure, but maybe you can do that by installing an other stock Romney using flashtool or the pc companion or Emma if you have an operator customized phone, that maybe why it is locked
