Not if his phone says Bootloader Unlock: No. Only option is to pay.
Paying the $24 is what is required to run the program necessary to unlock your phone. The guy unlocking it for you makes no profit from it. Is it really that unreasonable?

No that dont work my bootloader says no. An do you really think it costs that much to run a bit of software there will be a free way and ehen i find it will post in here

In the entire year that this phone has been out, the aforementioned unlock method has been the only way. If you think you can find another way, good luck, and godspeed. You'll be back, or you won't have an unlocked phone.

I have the same problem on my XPlay :/ I can't get into fastboot.

How anoying is it lol people keep saying it cant be done for free
But i think dif just gotta find a way if i do will pm you on here dude

(Q) Bootloader bypass

Is it possible to bypass the Bootloader similar to when it was the only way on x10 ?
I just need miui on my arc s

Yes, but as I stated in one of your pther threads all devs have unlocked phones

Ok but I get that but I would imagine it is not to different to the x10 bypass so could be fairly simple to switch over to arc s

A huge amount of time was poured on the x10's bootloader bypassing. Our devs will not do that as SE provided a way to unlock the bootloader. Devs will work on something else for the community.

Yes as the first poster said with unlock available from SE they wont do that. But wait on ICS to put thier efforts then, in my oppinion. And welcome here Chiefy009.

There might be a bit of misunderstanding here.
As a previous owner of an X10, I know how the bootloader bypass worked but with the arc, we don't need such thing because SE already provided a way to really unlock the bootloader, hence no bypass required.

I don't know where the misunderstanding is, a question was asked, then answered wrongly, most people here have had the great start in thier Android experience with the great X10, still savility cost nothing.

He could have another device that lets him download the game, thus giving him a titanium backup of the app. Doesn't always have to be warez

Paid for app that you are giving someone else a copy of for free and still keeping the original = warez.

I know but it states rather implicitly that PSXperia is only to be used for games you already physically own

Yes but that doesnt allow sonys software to be changed they have strict rules about that. Its just substituting one illegal thing for another lol

They are releasing a non-tegra version. If you watch the trailer you'll see the timeline of release dates. If I have time I'll watch it to let you know.

you can use that forum to find out if there is any way to use that on xperia play or not.

[Q] Can the Play still be unlocked via unlock code using the old method?

I have an IMEI code from when some saintly users found an exploit on Sony's servers. Can this code still be used to unlock the play without having to pay anything? I unlocked it back then, rooted it, and then ended up going back to 100% stock. Now, I'd like to unlock it again, and really don't know where to start.
edit: R800x
Yes you can still unlock with that code. I had mine unlocked over a year ago by ashergray and I've relocked my BL once only to reunlock it.

Could you by chance point me to some instructions? Will Flashtool do the trick?

Yup. You use flashtool. Search for relock.ftf. I have it somewhere but its in this phones android development section. Once you have it flash via flashtool.

Each device's unlock code is unique, so getting someone else's code would do nothing for you

Because you have a r800x you have the branded phone. Sony doesnt hand out unlock codes for the branded phones suchas att&t and verizon. Sony gives out unlock codes for the non branded handsets the r800i the international xperia play
