Is there absolutely no way of restoring DRM?

I have relocked the bootloader though..
It doesn't matter: the certificates were wiped and PC Companion can't give them back to you.
It's just a fact of life I guess

Go to your kind neighbour or relative and borrow his/her Windows-computer for a minute or two.

I have just rooted using Superoneclick with ZergRush, (bootloader is still locked), and uninstalled some of the bloat (video unlimited, timescape, etc....), using Titanium.
My question is that when Sony Ericsson release an OTA update (i'm currently on 2.3.4). Will I be able to update without any problems?
If not how would I go about updating?
I have an unbranded generic R800i (UK model).
Thanks.
(sorry if this question has been answered before).
You will be able to update without any problems

You can unlock with SDK.Sony Ericsson will let you unlock boot loader but!you lose your warranty.just google and get the code from se to unlock bl.it didn't effect if you are rooted and have locked bl.

Not really bothered about unlocking the boot loader atm. Just wanted to root so I could remove some of the bloat.

Actually if you delete any files from /system/app/ you will not be able to ota update (update will fail). But afaik you can still use seus/pc companion to update.

Oh ok. That's not too bad then
Yes I finally steped up and went through with unlocking the bootloader with jinx13. Its not yet done because im running windows 8 and my pc crashes but tomorrow i'll do it in another computer. But to the point!
I need advices on what not to do. The only problem is OTA and using PCC and Seus right? Any advice is appretiated!

When using test point via setools you cab still use pcc and seus and you will still keep drm,( think this was resolved after ics).
There are no issues with unlocked bootloader, you can only gain.
Just a point to remember that you can always relock bootloader with jinx13 if needed, as the server keeps records.

Just to clarify my previous post about the relock, if jinx13 does it then he can relock, if you use other company, then only they can relock. Hope this makes it more clearer.

hello
i have been in this forum for a while now and its awesome to learn how ours phone work.
thks for the help
right now i have a problem, i got a lt26i (my boss phone), he gave me the phone a few days ago, saying that the phone was inoperable due it always appear "recommender app is not working".
i took the phone, made a backup and then try to "restore the phone" to default, the process went fine, the phone rebooted and when finished the restart process, the phone was exactly in the same way it was a few minutes ago.
that surprised me, but, i continue with the next step, USE FLASHTOOL.:fingers-crossed:
i was confident with this step, i did select the firmware LT26i_6.1.A.2.50_1257-5499_WORLD.ftf, and everything went fine, and again when the phone restared, nothing, in the same spot.
after that, i thought that maybe if i install a custom kernel and rom, maybe i could have access to the phone again, but no, due i cant take root access or install any recovery program.
i dont know what else can use or do.
thks in advance for your response
AND SORRY FOR MY ENGLISH
regards

Its bootloader, is it unlocked?
Sent from my LT26i using xda premium
Dude,
You could also try Sony update service to push original stock firmware to the device.
But this will wipe all data and will only work if you have not unlocked the bootloader

well, the bootloader is unlocked, so i guess im $%"#ed! any other ideas?
