Well anyway, I left my phone with my cousin to unlock the bootloader using 'Omnius' because of their free easter promotion, but anyway he said he did it.... But how do you check if the bootloaders unlocked?

"fastboot getvar secure" should work
Sorry, I found out in the service menu, its says bootloader unlock allowed:yes
& network lock is 0 (all)
Lol

So just to get this right if the result of
fastboot getvar secure
is
secure: no
finished. total time: 0.002s
that means my bootloader is unlocked right?
that is what i understand.
type *#*#7378423#*#* like a call and u'll get into Service Menu than go to Service Info -> Configuration. there should be Bootloader unlocked: yes.

Hi just a quick question iv been searchign and downloading all sorts of things but still cant figure out how to unlock my bootloader?
The only method i can realy find it via the sony unlock develoment site, sendign your imei number, email address. Is there another way?
Plz let me know thanks.
The only other way is using test point method which isn't free
Its more difficult to do though...
Sony Ericsson official way is easy to do

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

What am i doing wrong?
I've installed all the correct drivers and followed all the instructions, typed in 'fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce getvar version' in cmd and it responds correctly, but when I type 'fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce oem unlock 0x8953C6AC2154D8C9' to unlock the bootloader, it always gives me the same error;

Have you double checked your unlock code? Or have you checked the root status like darkharbinger81 said. Both are common mistakes. Very easy to check too.
Bootloader unlocked: Yes.
R800i
Android version 4.0.2.a.0.42
Do I need to root it first? And the same error surfaces for my Xperia Sola... MT27i, stock 6.1.1.B.1.54, BL unlock: yes

Check (and doublecheck) what IMEI number you entered in Sony's site.
Type in dialer *#*# 7378423#*#* , go to service info> configuration and check your IMEI.
And IMPORTANT, that number will be 15 digits, but in Sony's site for bootloader unlocking you enter only 14 digits (ignore last digit)
If that fail, try some other thing:
-put usb cable in back usb ports of your motherboard
-try different usb cable
And finaly, as i recall, try by typing 0xfce instead of 0x0fce ( 'fastboot.exe -i 0xfce oem unlock 0xKEY)
Okay I went through the whole procedure again, double checked everything, the website gave me a different code and it worked this time. Thanks everybody!
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 All.
I just bought the leeco pro 3 and want to unlock the bootloader. I followed the steps outlined in "X727 (US Model) Persistent bootloader unlock from 5.8.019s". I turned on USB debugging, permanently added USB device, and turned on the "allow oem unlocking option". Then, i rebooted to fast boot and tried the following commands and received an error.
Code:
:~$[B] fastboot oem device-info[/B]

My phone came with 5.8.020S (I think) and I tried the above steps with that version. Then i updated to 5.8.021S and tried again and received the same issue. I checked for more updates but none were found.
I am sure this issue has been solved somewhere but I just want to make sure I do not brick this device. Please help.
Developer Options ---> usb debug ---> open ..
Developer Options ---> Oem unlock ---> open ..
Have you enabled them?

I had this issue also this I solved it.
Undo the OEM allow to unlock reboot then enable OEM to unlock bootloader.
Still had the problem.
I ended up flash the bootloader then then ran the bootloader unlock commander and it worked.

You need to flash 2 files via adb first, then run the unlock command.
I did it successfully for 021s

Flashing Critical Locked
I'm just a dabbler in this stuff, but I think I understand everything required to get LineageOS on my LEX727. The problem is, in the process of learning, I think I locked the ability to flash aboot, and now I can't get the twrp recovery onto my phone. Does anyone have any ideas or know what to do? If I can do anything from here?
Thanks for any help!
