Bootloader unlock still not allowed? - Xperia Tablet Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys,
I purchased the tablet yesterday from the o2 store, o2 have provided me with the unlatching code and now the tablet is sim free
When i enter the service menu though it still says bootloader unlock allowed no.. I was under the impression that the sim unlock would also remove bootloader restrictions?

No, simlock is totally unrelated to bootloader unlocking.

need to sim unlock xperia mini pro from tesk, anyone now anywere to unlock

hi all, my xperia mini pro is locked to tesco mobile. does anyone now were to get a tesco unlock code and yes i have searched forums but nothing straight forward!!
anyone please any ideas
does unlocking bootloader remove simlock?

found something £12-15
The sim lock is removed by paying an unlocking company to get you the code. It costed me $7.99 Canadian to get it done. There is plenty of websites that will do it for you. you just give them your imei # which is easy to find on the phone. They will send you back an unlock code. No the bootloader unlock will not unlock the sim.
thanks but i am on tesco uk so i dont think canadian unlock company will have uk codes.

[Q] SIM unlock

Hi guys!!
I've bought my sony xperia z2 from France and its locked to Orange network in france, now I've moved to UK/London, my phone is 4.4.4, I've flashed unbranded UK 4.4.2 firmware in order to unlock the sim, but it still asking for the SIM network unlock PIN, I've tried two firmwares (17.1.A.2.55 UK unbranded) and (17.1.2.A.0.314 UK generic/unbranded).. they've flashed successfully but the phone still asking for that unlock PIN.
How to solve this problem and unlock to mobile network so I can use an UK SIM?? My UK SIM is (LYCAMOBILE).
Thanks for reading and special thanks for helping!

[Q] If i SIM unlock my phone, will bootloader unlock allowed=Yes ?

I bought my Z2 from EE in the uk and i was very sad to find out that EE and other carriers stop you from unlocking the bootloader. So if i sim unlock my phone from EE, will i be able to unlock the bootloader? If not is there any other way i can make it say yes??

No and no.
This has been answered before. If you bootloader is locked, there is no practical way to unlock it.

Hello,
Sadly, there isnt a free way of doing sim unlocks for this certain phone (again, sadly), the only thing you could do is wait for a 2-year contract to expire to get it unlocked by them OR buy an unlock code from a popular simunlock site (be aware - there are many sites that scam) :/

I can't unlock my Sony Xperia XZ Premium bootloader

Hi there,
I am trying to unlock my Sony Xperia XZ Premium's bootloader as I am wanting to use EE (UK)'s VoLTE service (it only works on EE firmware and the device I bought from CEX (UK) second hand has Vodafone UK's firmware on it so therefore won't work). However, in the phones' Service Menu, it says the bootloader cannot be unlocked despite OEM unlocking being enabled in the Developer Options menu. Is this a mobile operator problem or is my device faulty. Please help. Thank you!
