[Q]Can't unlock bootloader? - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

Ok so i have a st15a.and when i enter the *#*#7378423#*#* code it says: "Bootloader unlock allowed: No" Does this means my bootloader can't be unlocked with any method? I read only CDMA phones can't be unlocked but mine's a GSM. How do i know if my bootloader is locked or unlocked? Sorry, posted in the wrong section can some mod pls move it? My bad.

is yours SIM locked?
That could be the reason why you can not unlock the bootloader.

Yes its locked to my carrier

Bootloader question

I am kinda confused about the bootloader. So do you need to have an unlocked phone to unlock the bootloader? Because I'm a little afraid to do it because of the loss of radio signal! Please help
and i checked on that tool thats supposed to check if you can unlock the bootloader and and it said ready. My phone is not unlocked from the carrier.

If your phone isn't unlocked then you can use the SEMC_qd8250.zip to method to unlock your boot loader, but you can always use the SIM certificate check tool in the dev thread to check if what SIM certificate your phone has, post the tool in a second.

Yes i know you told me earlier in a pm,
but does anyone now how you unlock network with setool?
x10 stand not in the list, only very old phones.
actually no. you dont have to unlock your phone carrier. i unlocked my bootloader without unlocking the phone carrier. there is a tool to check if you are eligible for unlocking your bootloader
You do NOT need to use setool to unlock your carrier before unlocking bootloader!
I was sim locked to vodafone (And never used setool) and I have unlocked my bootloader by following the steps posted in this thread with the kernel upgrade/downgrade method.
If you have never unlocked the sim then you can use the tool posted the_laser to unlock the bootloader.
Ok thanks mates

To unlock your bootloader that says "Bootloader unlock allowed:yes", go to the official Sony site for get bootloader's codes, my recommendation is download last version of FlashTool and when you connect your device in flash mode (with phone off push "Back" button and plug usb cable) then you have a "Plugins" tab, go there and select "unlock bootloader" it shows you a window where you put your IMEI and the bootloader unlock code that you get of Sony official site, and flash tool will do the work for you.
If your bootloader says "Bootloades unlock allowed:no" and you have SIM lock, you can try http://www.fastgsm.com that offers now at cheapest prices for Xperia Neo SIM Unlocking and bootloader unlock in the same price, the unlock software is fully compatible with Windows 8.
I hope I helped, Good luck!!
it could not!

Bootloader

I have a x10 running 2.3.3 official firmware.
I have rooted it.
So have I unlocked the bootloader?
If no,how to unlock it??

Rooting is not part of unlocking bootloader. Check first by dialing *#*#7378523#*#* and if bootloader says YES then you can unlock it. But if you are locked in a specific carrier then you need to unlock your sim first then proceed to unlocking bootloader. Check the development thread and look for proper bypass for bootloader unlocking.

Need to know more about your phone. In order to unlock bootloader your phone must to be factory unlocked. If so you can get steps from sony they will provide you a unlock code for the bootloader unlock process. If your phone is carrier locked you need to unlock your phone first and then you only can unlock the bootloader through special tools using sites like omnius.
