Yes bro he's right...
Only with ICS this cam be possible..
And the way things are looking and the latest which I read in Sony forum a guy frm UK asked for the date of update of ICS of Sola. On Sony Facebook page and he got an answer which was heartbreaking and disappointing "Q4 was the ans frm Sony ie; by the year end!!! "

1) there is a relocking bootloader. Tft file which relocks your bootloader only { DRM KEYS WONT RETURN}which will help you to bypass Sonys altered software error while updating it through SEUS or PC Companion n you can update your device without any problem to latest firmware....
2) No performance change is noticed rather the performance wil increase if you using custom roms...
3)it works only for Xperia 2011 device

Hi for now, there are no known ways of rooting the locked Sola bootloader.
There are successful methods for this on ICS but not gingerbread, for now. I have tried so many.
Thanks for replies. Thread moved to the Q & A.
so we w8 ICS or FXP its like a race! xD
I got tired of waiting and crazy rumours so I did it, unlocked myself. I wanted root that much. Plus, I read B4anry explain in a comment exactly how Sony treats locked/unlocked bootloader, depending on what you've done, and I think I'm safe. He knows his stuff obviously!

I think we have to wait till the ics update, like the xperia S developer does.. And the beloved developers develop rooting method without unlocking the bootloader..

Wooha, I don't understand the the language even it's translated by google.
But, I see his method is like the xperia S here, and in this case, many xperia U user of XDA forum failed to apply it, we need a confirmation for xperia u developer in xda forum if the the source is different maybe or the script has been modified so it will be implemented well in our phone.
we can see there that there is a requirement of ICS rom, xperia U doesn't have it, that's why maybe we need to wait to ICS update..

You can but not (correct me if I'm wrong) the official way, so to speak. Rolling back to older version of sola stock rom would require some basic skills in boot loader unlocking, flashing image etc.
Just search for "unlocking", "flashing" within the forum. HTH.
Please do not post Q&A in a development section.

You don't have to unlock your boot loader or anything.. Just use flashtools and flash a generic firmware... Thats it...by this way u can upgrade or downgrade...

Hi! I have a :
[device] SONY Xperia U
[Model Number] ST25i
[Android] 2.3.7 (Gingerbread)

My question is: How Can I root it? I tried 2-3 apps(on my phone). 2 of them didn't rooted the phone when they were over, and the other told me to wait a few minutes(I waited 1 night, I mean 6-7 hours and I wasn't over).
Please help! and thanks in advance!

I rooted my Neo some time ago, but I'm not sure whether it has S-OFF. How can I check? Thanks.
I had my Neo in original GB. I rooted it using this Flashtool procedure: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1709880. And the phone is with ICS now.
May I unlock bootloader now? And how?

These are 2 methods to unlock Bootloader
1. testpoint - I used that and it's really simple
2. Officialy
I prefer testpoint so here u are --> http://androidflip.com/unlock-xperia-phones-bootloader-without-losing-drm-data-track-id-working/
I would say go for official one.. because it is easy and anything official is great

Yess bro you are right.. but See basically once you unlock your bootloader and even if u again lock it, its in re-locked state and not locked state.. whatever it is.. once u unlock the bootloader you void your warrenty anyways.. so even if we lose DRM whats the big deal?
Because if that was the case then at first place we would not root the phone or unlock the bootloader.. we know what we have to face after doing it

No not always.. there are some roms wich u cannot flash having a locked bootloader.. but there are some.. here is the link for one..

It's not same.
lack of DRM certificate can easily be seen/spotted in service center, just by connecting phone to one program, which is not the case with "re-locked" or "un-patched" phone whose BL has been unlocked unofficialy via s1tool.

Well, if you flash fw for same region then there is no way to know that phone has been flashed with flashtool.
And if "you" are smart enough you will make backup ftf before you star messing with your phone.
Or smart enough to know how to trick SEUS or PCC to flash different fw, by editing build.prop.
Just FYI, my BL was unofficially unlocked, flashed so many times (though before service center I flashed it with correct region) and they replaced my motherboard with no problems.

So who ever put DRM in the first place was stupid, right?
That's your opinion, but you can't say it's not important.

i have an xperia u st25i android 2.3.7
when i decided to root it i was disappointed by knowing my "unlock bootloader allow : no"

Nope, as of now, there is no way to unlock it.
But you could attain root if you upgrade to ICS, without unlocking your boot loader.

After experimenting around i wouldn't worry about it on the U. Just use gingerbread or update to ics, root, add cwm and flash gb rocks rom. It's the best to use
