Good Evening,
Tuesday my Arc will be picked up bye the Post because it have for the second time the Frontcover damage.
Now my question :
I have unlocked the Bootloader and flashed the prerooted.img of the 2.3.4 on the Arc.
Should i flash back to Stock 2.3.4 and close the Bootloader again?
Or will there be no problem ?
Sony Ericsson Germany told me that it would give no problems because the Bootloader is open.
I send the first time the Phone with 2.3.3 and root on it and there was no problem.
Hello, when i unlocked my bootloader and rooted and more i flashed a cyanogenmod rom and send to sony ericsson when i had a problem, they fix and put the stock rom.
I had no problems.
thank you very much
I am trying to update my xperia ion to version 3.7 from 2.68. But its not happening. I tried with pc companion as well as OTA. Both say that phone has the latest version of firmware. I tried to perform repair via pc companion but it re-installed same version of firmware 2.68. Also my phone heats up quickly while browsing internet on 3G and battery gets drained quickly.
I checked with Sony service station and they are ready to replace my phone as i am facing heating and battery issue. But before replacing the phone i would like to check if issue has been solved in firmware version 3.7. I am concerned about flashing phone directly as it might void the warranty.
Any help on this issue would be appreciated.

go to service centre tell them that you were doing a 4.3 update and this happened.they wont recognise that your phone has an unlocked bootloader bcoz it doesnt start!they will replace it make sure you dont have cwm installed.

Hey I'm new here so sorry if I explain it weirdly and I mistakenly posted this in a different section before
So my xperia M which is now unrooted can't install the 15.4.A.1.9 update it just downloads and reboots and goes to the boot up screen and loads for 2-3 seconds and blacks out and and restarts and it says couldn't install update. How can I fix this?
Try flashing a .ftf file via flashtool
Press thanks if I helped!
This might me the answer
Hey there!
I think i understood your problem and i have a question to ask you. is your bootloader locked or did u unlocked ur bootloader anytime and didnt lock it back.?
if your bootloader is unlocked , u wont be able to install updates from official Sony Update Center.
I dono if this is the exact reason y ur are unable to do but this happened with my phone too.
I use Sony Xperia M Dual C2004 and i wasnt able to install updates, then i noticed that my bootloader was unlocked then i used Flashtool to lock it back, then i was able to install the updates
Or if u want to install .FTF of your phone manually do it via Flashtool coz its safe
and if you want to get .FTF of your phone directly from Sony use PC Companion as Sony Update Service [SUS] is stopped
Hope it helps :angel::fingers-crossed::good:
I have the latest officially firmware update for my Xperia M running on Android 4.3.
While trying to unlock my bootloader it got bricked and the Xperia boot animation kept on loading.
I followed all the steps and gave every commands to unlock my bootloader given in the official Sony developer website for my Sony Xperia device.
Since its not booting into my homescreen I gave my device to the Sony Authourised Service Centre where they are asking to replace a new motherboard.
DOES UNLOCKING THE BOOTLOADER CAUSE ANY DAMAGE TO THE DEVICE MOTHERBOARD?????
Sir,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum.
Stand by
Until then read this thread: [TUTORIAL] Xperia M Bootloader Unlocking
Good luck
Moved!
