Your bootloader did relock, the yes is telling you that your bootloader CAN be unlocked, this is normal. As for the nandroid error, it failed because you cannot rewrite the boot image after you have relocked. This is fixable though don't worry, just flash stock firmware using flashtool
How do i know
How do i know is my bootloader is locked or unlocked coz member in here said like this Bootloader unlock allowed - Yes << this means that your Bootloader is Locked
Bootloader Unlocked - Yes << this means that your bootloader is unlocked.
So base on it mean my bootloader is still unlocked, But u said is locked? so can some one tell me how to double cross check my bootloader is locked or unlock

Xyge my phone posisiton is stuck on Sony logo and i'm will flash the official rom using flashtool so it's mean my kernel will be stock one. So should i try to flash again the kernel or try other thing?
you cant update your phone to pc companion when your phone is unlocked.
Sorry, I don't understand what it is you want to accomplish here. Do you want to just fix your phone and re-lock your bootloader?

After i'm relock i just want to know how to make sure my phone is locked or not.

Open flashtool and connect your phone in flash mode. On the screen look for "bootloader status:" or somethings similar. If your bootloader is locked it will say ROOTABLE or if your bootloader is unlocked it will say ROOTED.
If your bootloader is unlocked you cannot update from Sony PC direct and if you phone is locked Sony will allow you to update the phone

Actually thats not right. If you relocked the bootloader it will go back to Bootloader unlocked allowed: Yes and not stay at Bootloader Unlocked: Yes
When you try flashing that bootloader relock in flashtool what happens? I have used it many times with my LT26i with no issues. Can you past the log from flashtool when you try to flash it?

Just do OTA update without relock bootloader
After update bootloader still unlock
I have SE Arc lt15i from 2011, and I wont to install FXP138-cm-10-20120916-UNOFFICIAL-anzu on my device. Now I have ICS 4.0.4 (587) with root.
When I start CWM-based Recovery and try to install zip from SD card I get status 7 error. I do some search and it's probably because my boot loader is locked. So I try unlock it following instructions on unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com
I enter #*#7378423#*#* and then I found this: Rooting status: Bootloader unlock allowed: NO
What now? Please people help I wont this rom badly
If you want it badly, you're gonna have to pay and use third-party software to unlock your bootloader. Otherwise you're stuck with stock and stock based ROMs.
I cant help you too much since my bootloader is locked; refer to a bootloader unlocking thread for help.

Bootloader unlock allowed: NO
Hi,
I just woundring if after unlock bootloader with HTCDEV is it possible to back to factory state with *** LOCKED *** status of bootloader again.
I think that it's not possible, but many times I read here on XDA it coud be done.
I know that it's a tool to lock bootloader from CWM - but if we LOCKED bootloader from CWM after that we can't reflash bootloader to oryginal HTC ( becuse it's LOCKED ).
If we first reflash bootloader to stock ( by fastboot) one we can't use this tool.
So the last way to lock bootloader is to RELOCK it afrer flash ROM --> BOOTLOADER --> USB FASTBOOT, and after that we have factory state phone, but the status of bootloader is RELOCKED.
Am I Right ? There is no another way to LOCK bootloader after unlocking to use OTA ?
I'm just curious.

If your wanting to relock the bootloader I would flash to a stock Rom using fastboot and relock after that.

What locking tool you using? That seems long to get locked status.
I know this is not a phone but I locked a bootloader today on a Nexus 7 by using the same shell I unlocked it with.
I might be getting my wires crossed sorry if I am. Glad you got it sorted though.

by the shell on WFS You can lock bootloader using the same metod like before to unlock of course , but when you do this the bootloader status will be **RELOCKED** not **LOCKED**, so of course RUU and OTA update will works fine but Warranty is lost.
If you lock bootloader with this tool ( superversion option ) phone status will be **LOCKED** and you be able to flash stock ROM and stock bootloader.

Waiting for your reply.
It will void your warranty unlocking bootloader
First you have to check if your bootloader can be unlocked in phone dialler put in (*#*#7378423#*#*) then go through the menus and find root status for bootloader it if says bootloader unlock allowed=yes then you can if it says no then you can't unlock it
If it's yes then you need to backup your TA DRM keys this will help if needing to relock bootloader if phone needs any repairs (brings back your warranty)

Thanks for helping me I'll definitely try this kernel and the steps you told:good:
I have aT2 Ultra D5306 with an unlockable boot loader. What can I do about it? can anything be done? Firmware flash?
You can unlock bootloader and flash a customized kernel,even you can instal a custom rom too..
Can you point me to guide to unlock my unlockable bootloader? Any information would be helpful.

Tap Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status. If Bootloader unlock allowed says Yes, then you can continue with the next step. If it says No, or if the status is missing, your device cannot be unlocked.
My bootloader is unlockable. Is there something that can be done about this?
Maybe some kind of LokiDoki will be made for it soon.
