I am afraid this is one of these things you cannot do on a Mac, you can install parallels or VMware, make a quick windows install, root, and keep the virtual machine, you might need it in the future for future rootings and stuff like this.
well honestly i dont know cos i use to be a apple fan. but i've the international version of xperia Z

First, unlock your bootloader:

Second, use flashtool to change kernel/add root:

If you can understand the batch script used in the root kit then yes, it is pretty much a step-by-step of what to do.

Hi,
is there a way to unlock the simlock of a Sony Xperia Z1? I've already read about unlock,io, sim-unlock.net, worldgsmcodes.com, with the first beeing the cheapest at € 29, which I find quite expensive... Does anyone know of a cheaper method?

Sim unlocking is not something that XDA developers deal with as in some countries it is illegal.

I found, in my town, in Croatia same thing (they order lock code online) - order number online and that's the best solution.
But first, check is your phone "unlockable".

I haven't been aware of this, however, in my country it is perfectly legal.

thanks funky for the tip, tried the *#*#7378423#*#* code and the counter shows 5 so it should work.
Bootloader unlocking is not the same as sim unlocking

Being an ex at&t CSR agent, I was told my tech reps that once you use all unlock attempts and fail then you're screwed big time. Only way is to call sony CS.

Hello. I successfully upgraded my Xperia T to Jelly Bean 4.3 and the phone works perfectly until I lock it. After it has been locked I can't unlock it or do anything with the touchscreen. I have to reboot the phone pressing the two buttons on the side. Please help me.

Hi guys,
my gf recently bought a Xperia SP and for an unknown reason my SP and her's have the same mac-adresse and because of that the same ip-adresse when connected to the same wifi
Both devices have Existenz 4.0 installed and bootloader unlocked (on 3.3 the issue was there too)
So two questions:
- Is it possible that I accidentaly changed the mac-adresse of one device?
- What to do now? Contact Sony or try to change it manually?
I'm really confused

You can spoof your mac adress with apps but it would be best to bring both phones back to the store you bought it from and tell them whats wrong

thx for the fast answer
I contacted Sony support today but they only told me that this is only possible if I rooted my phone and because of that I get no support
So i repaired via Sony PC Companion and now my phone has a different mac-addresse^^
It seems that existenz is changing my mac-adresse
Guess I should post that in existenz discussion thread.

Good job!
Hey guys,
I only have one easy question:
I got the old phone from wife(pra-lx1), 8.0.0 installed.
Is there any working possibility to unlock/Root the phone anymore since Huawei dropped it's webpage for this?
Any working tutorial which is useful? I've have never seen anything working so maybe anyone has an idea how to unlock it.
Thanks in advance!

You can try "DC Unlocker -> Bootloader unlock for Huawei devices " from the playstore.. It costs between 1€ and 16€ per unlock .. unfortunately I havent tried their method .. since the IMEI way they once offered is gone (probably due to huawei disabling the service) .. so you can only try to read the code from your phone's bootloader which may or may not work ... they offer a refund if it doesnt work
Thx I gonna try it! Look @ Huawei's answer. It's a shame!

Yea, already read about it in a german forum, when they announced it in may '18 ... a sad thing they say "improving customer service" when in truth they reduce the service .,.
True thing though that many people bricked their Huawei P / Honor device but only because Huawei blocked all easy ways .. I still remember how easy it was on my good'ol' Galaxy Nexus (3) .. and at that time it was still considered obligatory to offer easy ways because rooting and modding was "fair use" .. Heck they even successfully sued the first manufacturers that tried to block rooting because of this "fair use" practise .. what happened to the world

I will try DC Unlocker once. If it failed I will retry unlock over customer service...
Hi,
So ? DC-unlocker is approved ? 4€ for unlock code seems to be honest for a free data...
Is it how many you paid ?

No, I didnt pay (yet) - because nobody could show a way to root my PRA-LX1 running EMUI 8.0.0..374 without bricking it.
Doesnt make sense to pay unless I can reliably continue unlocking
Oh ok...
So we just have to sell our P8Lite... and cry.

Hi there,
I wanted to know if it's possible to root my P8 lite 2017 with only the magisk manager APK without having an unlocked device ? (And following the magisk fix to not bricking it)
Thanks
DC Unlocker fails so there is no way to unlock it for now. Only way is to Sell it or use Stock.

Did you unlock it with EMUI 8.0 installed?
Yes, I had Android 8.0 and Emui 8.0. I wanted to install a custom rom but I had a lot of problem, I installed TWRP but had a lot of Error 7; I nearly bricked the device but it has started eRecovery by itself and repaired - but this is another story...

I can confirm that this method is working fine. Bootloader is being read with DC Unlocker, now I installed los15.1. Works great.
Hope haky86 gets issues on his device fixed soon.
If anyone facing mobile issues with unlocking bootloader, dont hesitate and contact me.
