Hiya!
I've posted some stupid posts before, but this one I really need an respond to.
I am trying to unlock the bootloader VIA SonyEricsson's website. But when I enter the number intro the tele app (*#*#7378423#*#*). And Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status : Says "No".
Can I still unlock the bootloader?
And if not, can I do something about it? (Debranding)
And if I can, how do I proceed?
EDIT : My IMEI is 15 digits...?
Regards, SH4RKI3
i've manage to unlock the bootloader using the steps provided on the SE site.
The IMEI is 15 digits BUT you will have to write only the first 14 digits. (delete the last one)
Contact guys like Jinx13, they'll unlock it

How Do I find out the bootloader status (Locked/unlocked ?) of my xperia ARC.
actually I unlocked it official way, then relocked and updated to .42 fw using PC for giving to repair under warrenty. its over and I want to unlock bootloader again. whats the best way I'm on fw .42 baseband 56.
thanks a lot in advance.
dial from your phone to check status :
*#*#7378423#*#*
service info --> configuration
for me, the best way is via fastboot..

dear gogo,
I've tried that, the service info will tell you "bootloader unlock allowed = yes"
it will not tell you whether your phone is locked or unlocked state!
It will tell you.
Mine is unlocked and says " Bootloader unlocked: Yes "

that means your bootloader is still locked, and you were allowed to unlock it.

So that means I can do the same exercise again to unlock I mean official way?
In that case se will provide me new code to unlock?
I don't remember the old code they provided
Regret for the seeking the clarification again as I don't want to endup in trouble later.

Yes, you can unlock again.
Request the code again and you'll see if they provide it again.

They can't block a unlockable bootloader afaik
Just try it

it's ok.
I've tried it.
the unlock code is still the same code you had received before.
the remaining question is whether you sure to unlock it again or not, as standard user doesn't need to do such thing.
bravery comes from experience.
that's it bro.
I think your problem has solved.

For the info...
Bootloader unlocked: Yes
Means fastboot is enabled and the bootloader can be unlocked the official way
Bootloader unlocked: No
Means fastboot is disabled and therefore the bootloader can only be unlocked by other means
The best way for you to check your bootloader status is do identify in s1tool or similar
Hi guys.
Basically i'm getting round to rooting and unlocking my phone but i'm having issues with the bootloader. I've gone to the official website and typed in *#*#7378423#*#*, the rooting status says 'Bootloader unlock allowed: Yes' so I carried on but when I come to put my info in (e-mail, IMEI etc.) the IMEI is 15 characters instead of 14.
I've already rooted my device using Flashtool but i'm having no luck with the bootloader which i'm assuming I need unlocked to install custom ROM's (?).
Thanks.

Read step 6 again: Enter your name, email address, the first 14 digits (remove the last digit) of your phone’s IMEI number and the two CAPTCHA words in the input boxes. Click Submit. You can view the IMEI number by entering *#06# on your phone.

is there ANY way that xperia arc s newer then 12w19 can be sim unlocked??
Purchasing code or..??
Can cellunlocker unlock it?
Atm no, I think.

If you're not locked to any carrier, I don't see any reason why not.
Have you tried the official Sony unlock method? Your other option is via the testpoint method.

My bad, I didn't wrote sim locked..
It's carrier locked, and sim-lock is there for 24 months, the problem is I bought it in another country and in my country that carrier doesn't exist..
So the question is edited, can it be sim-unlocked (bootloader is irrelevant)
Then you'll need to use the Testpoint method. Contact Jinx13 or Alejandrissimo. They should be able to unlock it for you remotely for a small fee. Or use Omnius (again Paid).
And no, there's no free method to unlock your phone. But trust me, it's worth it.
Hope that helped. Cheers!
I already did contact jinx and he told me that if it's 12w14 or newer he can't unlock it :S
I'm not looking for a free method, I'm looking for a working method...
Off topic: Is it worth upgrading to ICS?
Damn, then you may be out of luck. Do ask around though.
And upgrading to ICS. Well, I have upgraded to the Generic Global World 4.0.4 and I must say I like it. My only issue is that my touchscreen isn't AS responsive as it was on GB.
There are others who couldn't/can't stand ICS and reverted back to GB after a few days with ICS. They felt that it lagged too much compared to GB etc etc.
To each his own. But I like ICS; that's just my opinion.
Cheers!
is there ANY other way?
is there anyone that has Emma and a working account and can remove the sim lock?
Also can these pay sites unlock it?
maybe fastgsm
I was looking for the exact same thing and found that fastgsm.com can unlock it with network codes.
It seems that we cannot currently unlock this phone model with our data cable method if the manufacturing date is later than 12W13, please contact [email protected] and ask for a refund. It would be possible to unlock this phone via Network codes, if there are unlock attempts left, for $59.99.

Its a bit to expensive for me, so i haven't tried it. But if you do, please post back results.
Good day to everyone and sorry to revive this thread, but i didn't want to ask a question that's been asked before so while searching the forums for cellunlocker.net i found this thread.
Is there anybody out there who got their arc S(new security manufacturing date 12w26) unlocked by purchasing the code via IMEI method for 39,99$?
dont paid

There is no known solution for disabled fastboot cases yet (Bootloader unlock allowed: No), as phones manufactured after 12W11 have enchanced type of security, for which there is no exploit yet.

It might remove the SIM-lock (I am not sure, which code you mean right now), but it will not enable fastboot and will not allow bootloader to be unlocked.

Would you at least bother mentioning your methods for this? Considering you haven't been around on this forum for long, I doubt any of your methods actually unlocks the bootloader.

Hi,
Thanks, i see there: http://www.fastgsm.com/en/sonyerics...-unlock-codes/network-unlock/flashing-debrand
Unlock codes. I read a lot, and i figured out that Bootloader Unlock Allowed: No means that fastboot disabled due to simlock..so if there's no simlock on the phone, the no changes to YES, so can unlock simply..If unlock allowed YES, then everyone successfully unlocked the bootloader in this forums. Am i wrong somewhere?

It does remove the SIM-lock, but fastboot is still disabled. Removing the SIM-lock does not activate fastboot nor does it change Bootloader Unlock Allowed to Yes.

Just sent a mail to the LG Developers Team and describe your problem in the mail.. They will correct their database to match your IMEI and Device-ID so you can obtain your unlock key.
