You will be unable to update or repair using SEUS after unlocking that way.
You could also unlock by the test point method with the s1tool

If your phone is sim locked, then I guess you have to pay to unlock then.

Thanks experience D, but i really not want to pay anyone to make a chance on my phone, i already pay it, very expensive because on brazil the tax is too high, and i think this is dangerous.
I miss you my x10, easily to put xrecovery, various roms, including Miui and Cyanogen.....
I'm again...
I'm looking to sony ericsson's website and it says
"The only way to determine if you can unlock the boot loader for your phone is to connect your phone to the Fastboot tool in the Android™ SDK. If your phone can connect to Fastboot, the boot loader can be unlocked."
I can connect my phone to fastboot, but why i don't can unlock the bootloader ??

Hey,
Not been on this lately. I meant to say to remove simlock. Any tool for removing sim lock not unlocking bootloader?
Considered buying an XTC Clip?
It worked for me and isn't really that expensive anymore...
Hi everyone, yesterday I bought Arc S and it is sim locked.
My question is: If I root it or even unlock its bootloader put custom rom, kernel, etc., will this become problem for the unlocking the network? I will get my arc s to a service so i don't want to have problems.
P.S. on Service info/configuration it says: BL unlock allowed: No .... So if my network is unlocked will i be able to unlock the BL?

Probably not according to all those that have got their Phones back from a Service Centre.

I'm really interested if someone with simlock can get access to the bootloder without paying for unlock service. I look several days in the internet and didn't find a way for that

Hi xda, I am a noob here needing some help on my Xperia play. I am currently using a r800at running 2.3.3 and it will not show if my bootloader is unlocked or not and I want to know if it is or if I will have to have it done for me. Here are some pictures below showing what it shows me... I have rooted it using Superoneclick successfully as well. Im looking to run Cola custom rom on it if anyone is wondering why. If anyone can be of any help here, it is greatly appreciated
Thank you have a nice day!

First off, welcome to XDA. Also first, you should edit that screenshot with microsoft paint and hide your phones IMEI #. You dont want that info out in the open. Second you can only unock the AT&T xperia play (R800at) via either alejandrissimo at unlocker.com or wotanservercom
http://www.wotanserver.com/en/sony-ericsson/se/xperia-play-r800/unlock-tool/debranding-flash
Currently wotanserver is about $10 american and it will unlock your phones bootloader and simlock, so you can use the phone with a T-Mobile or other sim card.
All the details for unlocking on here in XDA, just do a search. I hae never used alejandrissimo but have heard good things, currently though wotan server is cheaper and you can use the unlock tool from wotan to unlock your phones bootloader.
Good luck.
Are u sure Sony still don't allow unlock on r800at? They do for I aswell X now.

As far as I know SONY doesn't allow free bootloader unlocks for carrier branded phones. ...Verizon & at&t
As of bout a month or two ago Verizon users can now unlock their bootloader for free via Sony's webiste. I relocked my bootloader and tested out the code that was emailed to me from Sony and it worked.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2013762
Currently AT&T is the only Xperia PLAY that you cannot unlock for free from Sony., You must either user Alejandrissimo or WotanServer.com to unlock.
Is it possible to unlock the bootloader of the r800at from sony's website in 2014?
Hey Guys!!
I want to unlock my bootloader but i cant with the sony's method , so iam tried to unlock it with s1tool and it worked .... but i havent got fastboot:/
My question:
When i bought my xperia play it said i can unlock my bootloader ... but iam not did it , one day ive got a new SiMCard and after i want to unlock it and it is said i cant unlock my bootloader with my new simcard ..... well i guess this is the SiMCard's problem ..... So do i need to go back to the service and ask the guys to do a simunlock , or there is any way to do this at my home?
Thank you for your answers!!

Yes you can unlock your bootloader with the settool method. You have to pay somebody to unlock your bootloader for you. By unlocking your bootloader your simlocked device will be unlocked for whatever service provider you want. I recommend alejandrissmo.
