Hi guys,
as title above suggests, after doing the *#*#7378423#*#* trick, my SXS says bootloader unlock is not allowed.
Is anyone aware of any exploits to make this possible. Yes I know ICS is coming out soon, but as I am on Orange UK they will hold it back until they have added all their bloatware, which I want shot of
Cheers for looking, and for helping
With any luck there will be a hardware method to unlock the bootloader on these like there was on the 2011 range. But currently I don't think anyone has figured it out yet. Certainly don't envy you waiting for Orange to roll out the update with all their junk installed.
There's no rooting method for GB nor for ICS as of now.
if you want ICS, use flashtool and flash any of the available firmwares to your phone (generic one), then you don't have to wait and you'll only get Sony's bloatware, some of them can be removed without rooting. If you flash the original images, you don't have to have root or unlocked bootloader, it works just fine.
Right...
I had the exact same issue as you...
The phone is from CPW so not a phone direct from orange but the Bootloader unlockable status was set to 'No'
I then flashed from GB .67 to .73 and it had somehow changed the bootloader status to 'Yes' and I was able to unlock it...
The phone was rooted the same day and now on ICS rooted too!
Here is the (albeit vague) thread on the subject...

thanks man I'll have a look. Have this really annoying issue, I'm on .75 so will need to flash back to .73 to see if it works.
DAMN I HATE ORANGE UK for doing this! Why? You buy a phone, yet don't get the full functionality out of it you want when they mess about with it

On Spain last may we bought lot of Xperia U from the same carrier, all of them with locked BL, somehow we managed to complain about it and the solution they gave us was first you need the phone with simlock removed, so you can use the phone with any company, after that the SAT from sony will get the phone for about a week, you have to send it, they take care of the fees and they unlock the bootloader.
Make sure your phone is simlock free, and try to contact sony about allow the BL
enable fastboot with jinx
go to phoneunlockserver.com and talk to jinx and he can sim unlock it and enable fastboot so you can unlock the bootloader with official way.
no test point need, just normal usb cable and pressing one button.
"It's Here
Ok, anyone wanting sim unlock for the newer xperia's
Xperia S etc etc it is here for a limited time and afraid to say expensive.
This also includes phones produced after 12w14"
"Cost
The cost for this is at the current moment is £35.00 GBP This will be going up soon I hear. The reason for this is it takes 10 credits for the process"
"Sim and Fastboot
This unlock is for sim unlock and fastboot enabled. Customers can then unlock the bootloader the official way.
I do not know how long this will be up for and it is up between 8am - 8pm GMT+8 time zone"
I'm just waiting for ics to come out for my Xperia U and then i think i'm gonna do it with jinx.
it is right
Anyone has already test this methode?
As far as I'm aware SIM unlock doesn't enable you to unlock the bootloader.....

it's not only sim unlock, you are paing for both things: sim unlock and fastboot activation.
and then, with fastboot active you can go to sony site a get the code to unlock it (via fastboot)
jinx is send me a message that the servers are offline for unknown time, he was going to unlock my phone today, where can i check when is available????
I'm in the same situation! please jinx13 contact for more details !

Yes but when we contacted the SAT from Sony to remove the "unlock bootloader not allowed" from Xperia U/S they told us that we need to send the phone with simlock unlocked, they had no way to check if the phone have some permanence with the carrier beside simlock unlocked.

Hey I along with others are waiting for bootloader unlock for third party sim unlocked phones. I was wondering if anybody unlocked their bootloader anyway and had any luck. By third party I don't mean you received imei code from a different company I mean you had to plug in your phone to your computer when unlocking.
EDIT: I have contaced Multi-Unlock-Client and they said they are working on getting the bootloader unlock to us and it will be here soon: 1-2 weeks.
YEAH.

If u unlocked phone by omnius or other and then u reunlock using setool2 doesn't help??
U can try that and see if it passes the certifacte test...
Do u know where can i find setool2

I heard that if you reunlock with setool2 then all will be okay and you can unlock bootloader. BUT I have not freaking idea how to use setool2 or how to get it or how to pay for it...it boggles my mind why they use credits instead of real currency and I don't know if you need se toolbox or whatever.
I prefer not to pay for unlocking sim TWICE.

Here you go...
https://rs107dt.rapidshare.com/#!do...l2lite1.11www.se-tuning.net.rar|68890|R~0|0|0
if you get "not recognized simlock certificate", you have 3 ways:
1.
go to nearest service center and ask to unlock your phone with setool2.
almost all 3rd-party service centers have setool2 equipment and can help you.
cost can't be less than 15$ and upper limit depend of service center greed ( mostly they are GREEDY guys )
2.
wait,until lead ( omnibus developer ) will integrate semcboot unlock in omnibus software.
if you used omnibus to unlock your phone, it can be even free for you.
if not - price will depend of lead's greed ( and he is EXTREMLY GREEDY guy )
3.
wait,until tool author, which wrote tool you used to unlock your phone, integrate
semcboot unlock in own tool.
ps.
all that other 3rd-pary unlock tool authors need to do -
- sniff my patched s1boot
- replace S1_SL_Root_xxxx with own
- proudly release new version with words "world first user friendly REAL TRUE TOTALLY SAFE ULTIMATE bootloader unlock blablablablabla"
Thank you for the information...its actually very helpful. I did not get mine unlocked from omnius, i got it unlocked from multi unlock client...so hopefully that person knows about this and will integrate it soon.
Thank you again the_laser for taking your time to read my post. And of course bootloader unlock.
I contacted the company JIC technology the maker of multi unlock client...and hopefully they will get back to me soon.
I have receieved an email from a JiC technology..the makers of the multi unlock client software...so if any of you ahve used that to sim unlock your phones a bootloader unlock provided by them will be published in the next 2 weeks.
SWEET.
Waiting ..
I'm on the same boat ..... Its been a week now of I think It won't be long now , do anybody know where lease can I check for the updates on the multi unlock client ?

I Opened a case with JIC Tech to ask for the bootloader unlock and they just closed it with no reply .
They have released V52.00 of the Multi unlock client and there is no reference to the X10 bootloader unlock .
I guess I we should have used the IMEI method ... ;(
Just a thought. Maybe, with the new version out, someone could flash back to stock 2.1, re-run the unlock, then run the s1tool to see if it's now compatible. I can't try it for a few days, but it might be worth a shot.
E.T.A.: This is for those of us who used the Multi Unlock Client.
I said weeks ago that I have Omnius unlocked bootloader and I can give it in PM.

Blagas,
Thanks for the software via PM last night.
Can you check your PM as the bootloader unlocking does not work for me.
All the info should be in your PM box.
Thanks.
Downloaded to 2.1 rom and still getting errors whrn running the bootloader unlocking cmd file.
I wonder if i am doing something wrong.
Has anyone got a "how to" guide for people who unlocked their phone with "omnius" software ?
Thanks.
Received email from Multi Unlock Client creator...
"Just to keep you informed. We are nearly finished with our other project so i hope that after 1 week we can do the unlock for bootloader.Either way it is next on the list
Regards
Dave Brailsford ( MIoD)"
This email is about 2 days old so look for a serious software update soon.
when i check *#*# code7378423#*#*
in service menu
Bootloader unlock allowed no
what should i do???
i need to unlock my bootloader
please pelp
get an unlock code from your network provider, some people have said that once they removed the simlock its let them unlock the bootloader. if that doesnt work then theres not much you can do untill someone works out another way to unlock it
no fastboot mode.
Theres only one solution I know of, and it may be a crazy one....
Use search first, and read the other 500 threads created on this topic ;-)
Short answer: No, not able to be done yet.

If you want to unlock the boot loader, use the wotanserver.com
* In addition to sim unlock you get an unlocked bootloader.
However, it seems to me that at the moment, this service does not support SXS
Try to write the administration service.

What is a "rootable bootloader"?
For the Croatian members:
I've just called customer service of Vipnet( Vodafone) and they told me that there is no problem, you can unlock boot loader for only 480 HRK (~65€).
Well, if there's no free unlocking solution in few weeks I'll have to milk some cash. It's still better then locked for life.

Pay more for a phone that's SIM-Free and not subsidized by a network. That is the only way.
guys, try the ezSEMC. it's realy working, but it's paid.
I'm not seller. I used it on my acro hd and i'd got the bootloader unlock allowed: yes.

So we have achived root on our sxs.....
We have achived CWM on our sxs.....
When oh when will we get to unlock our bootloaders???
Hopefully this will be a thread where we all can discuss what we have tried on our phones...and didnt work...ideas....links to other sites...anything you can think of to make us get closer to unlock!!
Maybe some Devs can give us an idea if they are getting closer to this (thanks for their work btw)
Also is there any tweaked custom roms with sxs stock kernal?
S1 server was on for a short time for opening the simlock thing.
then it was on for even a shorter time for opening the simlock+ enabling fastboot(and then opening the bootloader via the official Sony site)
then.. S1 server went down, for a very long time apparently.
and now we wait, again.

I'm in the same boat. Tried using unlock. se website's software and using the s1 signature but only did a network unlock.
EzSemc is the tool needed to do a full csca certificate unlock which 'should' allow unlocking of the bootloader. Google it for info. The server this tool uses is offline though.
The info is in the trim area (TA) part of the phone. This may be possible to edit but comparisons need to be done with someone who's phone has the permission allowed but not yet unlocked and someone's phone who hasn't got the permission allowed.
Flashtool can be used to read/write TA part of the phone in advanced mode.
This is all the info i know about.

Lunar.

I have a Xperia U that says bootloader allowed no. Is there a way to unlock the bootloader?
I think only Sony Mobile can help us
We should never buy a phone from the carrier network again.
There is no way,end of story.
There is a way. You must contact your carrier and ask them to do it. They will tell you where to send your phone in order to unlock your boot loader. For example, here in Portugal, Datafax is able to change your boot loader status to "allowed= yes"

Hey, just like the topic, do you have any advice?
I would add that:
-Button fastboot is locked
-I can not unlock the bootloader
The phone was purchased in orange the same hence the lock
Recently I wrote here in the forum but to no avail.
Please household remedies not services.
If you have bootloader unlock = no in service menu, there's no known way to unlock it -- some claim you can after getting it SIM unlocked, others say it doesn't help...

2:, CONTACT Sony to replace me (higher costs and a long wait on the phone)
edit:
Maybe TESTPOINT metod?
NO TESTPOINT, IT HAS BEEN PATCHED!
