Hello people,
I just bought a new Xperia Arc which was locked to 3 UK. I bought this phone from another country, the seller has somehow unlocked the network lock (All SIMs work perfectly).
But sadly, the carrier splashscreen and some stupid apps are still there.
How can I get rid of this?
Can I unlock the bootloader on this, root and install CUSTOM Roms like other factory unlocked phones?
Additional Info:
Android Version: 2.3.3
Baseband Version: 8x55A-AAABQOAZM-20302204-36
Kernal Version: 2.6.32.9-perf [email protected]#1
Build number: 4.0.A.2.368
btw SEPC shows a new software version update (4.0.2.A.42) !!
search the forum..have you??

I did bro! Most of the threads are about unlocking the network, but my situation is different...My network lock is no longer there, its unlocked!
Flash generic firmware ftf file
Check *#*#7378423#*#*
And see in menu if bootloader unlock says yes or no.
I got three UK arc s and I am having to pay to unlock and do test point method
But lots of posts about it as I have found do a little search on test point method and contact jinx13

Thanks for your reply chiefy, I just checked service menu using *#*#7378423#*#*
All the SIM Lock values are shown as 0
[] Network 0
[] Network subset 0
[] Service provider 0
[] Corporate 0
[] SIM 0
But under Configuration the Rooting status says that Bootloader unlock is NOT allowed! How can I get over this? Can someone help?

hi i need help to unlock my xperia x10 mini pro and the IMEI code of the phone is :************** and S/N: ************. plz can someone get me the unlock code for free.
Don't post your IMEI or serial number in public. Someone could disable your phone with that information.
did you find the solution?

Hi me too, i need an unlock code for my x10 which is orange uk locked. if not for free, how can i possibly pay it if i don't have a paypal account nor a credit card to use.
First of all, I couldn't find a Xperia Pro forums and so I posted here. After all, I've seen a lot of Xperia Pro talk in the Arc forum.
I have a locked, but rooted Fido Xperia Pro which I've been wanting to unlock for a while now. Will the testpoint method work with S1Tool for free? I don't want to try it because of the hassle, hope someone can confirm it for me. If not, is there a free way to unlock the bootloader on a locked Xperia Pro?
First type *#*#7378423#*#* ie *#*#service#*#* actually ,go to service info then configuration see bl unlock allowed if yes you can unlock it free from sony official site many tutorials are on xda too search them eg in xperia play forum it will work on your phone too and if no you'll have to pay for it for that contact alejandrissimo

You need the full SETools which you're not going to get for free, so it didn't work because you haven't done it right.
is there any rom or CWF that can unlock the phone or anything else, ... also with test point they told me some version of weeks like my is 12w16 :S because in my country some se tools will not unlock the phone.. :S

No Rom will unlock the sim. Search for jinx13 on xda or look in general for unlock. they offer unlock via setools but done remotely

There should be carrier unlock codes that you can buy from eBay, you have to a search there cause i have no more info on that.
I think rayner is confused with s-on & s-off

You can't unlock it in service becouse they don't know how to do it
In Romania and a few other countries the unlock codes are changed by the factory when they recieve the order for that operators. So no unlock code from ebay or any other website will work for this phones
If you still need to unlock it, give me a PM. I can do it.
BR,
stuck, need help pls ..

Even thought this is a pretty old thread, i just want to post a note here :
ROMANIAN Carriers cannot be unlocked by code, so any site that claims that they can provide the factory code for this is wrong. The romanian networks change the code on the phone, therefore the code from the HTC database is wrong.
The only way you can get this device unlocked is with a USB cable or get the code from your provider ie Vodafone Romania or Orange Romania.

You can't unlock it at home. I found a way to downgrade some firmwares to 4.0.3 and then unlock them. But on new firmware with TP drivers changed, you can't downgrade becous you touch panel will not work.
So you are stuck with your providers or you can sell it and buy a Samsung or an LG witch are not stuburn to lock theyr devices!

There is no way to unlock the bootloader on your model, if that's what you're asking.
