Use flashtool to flash a new kernel and you should be able to get into cwm

Is this root persistent? I.e. is it likely that it will survive the 2.3.4 upgrade coming soon?

Hey!
I want to unlock my bootloader, because i want custom kernel, so i started too google for it, and i found this forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1303960 i want to try unofficial unlocking way, because it looks easy.
But there isnt tutorial for it.
Or its soooo easy, that i need connect wire like that and my bootloader will unlock?
Help me, iam really confused.
And another question..

Really? No tutorial? You have link in that very same thread you posted! Check where it says "Unofficial Unlocking Method"
And if that's not enough, you have sticky thread! which have instructions in second post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1409269

Help me to lock bootloader !!! ???

I am having touch panel issue on my mobile and decided to go to service center to fix it. For that i need to rollback to Sony original stock GB ROM and also want to lock my bootloader. Please help me to do that !!!
will they find my mobile bootloader was unlocked ???
Neo V, dev section, sticky threads. Read them!
You are old enough here to know that.
Hey dude, I didn't post this thread before i search, I barely look in to Neo V DEV section. I have found many post that explained "how to unlock? ", but no"lock" thread !!!. Can you redirect me to the right section ?
for relock.use restore button with s1tool...i did that way.
if u read relock BL...u will find this :
xodARAP7 said:
Peeps, if you unlocked your phone with s1tool testpoint unlock solution you CAN relock your bootloader with same app s1tool by pressing restore.
Why you are so complicated, since most of you did it with s1tool?

Thanks for a quick reply, I didn't use S1tool to unlock my phone. I followed this method... !!!
http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/instructions
How can i re-lock in this method ???
[Edit].. Sorry, the keyword i used for search is not correct, "relock" is right one. And now i am going forward to re-lock my phone. Get back here if any help needed.. Thanks

So dude, have you tried to check where I pointed you? I won't give you exact link.
There are not many sticky threads in dev section, and not more than 1 with unlocking BL.
And yes, it does contain information how to relock your BL.
Dude sorry, I was frustrated to find a quick solution to lock my phone. Otherwise i can't go for warranty service. Also the keyword i used was not correct. Any way i got it now, but don't go-away i will come back here if any help needed.
Thanks a lot
You used official method they know its been unlocked anyway. .....

A little help with my Xperia Sola...

I've decided to root my phone... as far as I know I won't lose my warranty If I'll be rooted right?
So All I want is just root permissions... NO custom ROMS or Kernels.
I am using GB stock 6.0.B.3.184 firmware android 2.3.7
So Do I need to unlock my bootloader to root? Or I can proceed without doing that?
And could someone provide me with link how to root Xperia Sola with GB stock firmware?
Thank's
Please... I have looked everywhere.
Also found sources where people are searching for a way to root phone without upgrading to ICS with no luck.

You can root without unlocking your bootloader. Bootloader need to be unlocked only if you want to flash custom kernels or roms like cm9,cm10, miui etc.
You can try this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460
Confirmed on the first post that works on sola also. Hope works with gb also

says It's for ICS/JB.
Nothing mentioned about GB... I'll better ask If it can be done on GB as well.
Thanks
zmeu27, your suggested method looks too complicated and I don t want to lose my warranty. Thanks anyway.

My bad mate. Try this one : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1849030.
Hope this works. I don't use gb and can't tell you for sure which is the best choice, i am looking in various threads to find the best way.
You can also have GB with root permissions with a LOCKED BOOTLOADER

Thanks for your effort, I appreciate that
This one says It needs fastboot, so do I really need to unlock bootloader?
How hard is it..? To unlock bootloader, As far as I know it can be done at Sony homepage, Whats the advantage of unlocking it and do it has any cons... already know that it means lost wariaty, and that's a risk.
And finally can bootloader be locked again? To make everything as it used to be?
