Hey i had sucessfully unlocked the bootloader on my Xperia Pro, however the speaker broke and i had to send the phone to service. So i relocked the bootloader by flashing a flt found here the file is called Xperia_Relock_bootloader.ftf
*I cant post links yet*.
Today i got my phone back, the service replaced the speaker on the phone, so now it works =D
However i can't no longer unlock the bootloader - here's how i have done.
1) i have installed the fastboot drivers from the FlashTool drivers.
2) Ive followed the intrsuctions given by Sony Ericsson, i entered my IMEI key
and were returmed an unlock-key to unlock the bootloader
3) Rooting Status in the Service menu says:
Bootloader unlock allowed: Yes
4) ive ran fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce getvar version and i were returned 0.3
5) The last step ive ran fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce oem unlock 0xKEY were KEY is the key i got from Sony Ericsson,
however i am being returned this
(bootloader) Unlock phone requested
FAILED (remote: oem unlock failed!)
finished. total time: 0.004s
What am i doing wrong?
I've seen a fewposts with this same issue with nothing really suggested other than making sure the code is right, I've copied it direct from the sony site so it's correct. I need help guys

Don't you need to escalate your privilege's in order to complete this process? I know on Linux systems (if not already root) I have to type sudo before the command I want to use before it will allow it. E.G.
Code:
sudo adb
sudo fastboot
I'm not familiar with the windows command prompt way

As i recall, imei that you entered in Sony's site should have 14 digits. If you entered 15 or 16 digit number, code you received could be wrong (and that's why it won't work).
I don't know much on unlocking r800x models. My is r800i and it's unlocking was without any problems

The number I entered was my device's me id which, if I'm remembering correctly, is what CDMA phones have.

Hi, I need some help with unlocking the bootloader of my phone [Huawei Y5 (DRA-LX3)] Please!
So, I am using the adb7fastboot method to unlock the bootloader, there are very limited options to do this process, but I've managed to find what might be the unlocker code for the command:
Code:
fastboot oem unlock xxxxxxxxxx (the unlock code)
Naturally, the warning screen appears on my phone (the one that tells you about erasing all of the data by unlocking the phone), and when I select "Yes" the phone displays an error:
unlock failed... return to fastboot in 3s
And the adb/fastboot window goes something like this:
Code:
...
(bootloader) Start unlock flow
FAILED (remote:
Unlock failed - Err:0x7
)
finished. total time: 6.137s
What do you think? Is there a solution that can save my life? Thanks by the way!
