[Q] [LT18i] Bootloader unlock allowed: no - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys.
I've got one Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc S LT18i from Vodafone (Portugal).
So i've checked this tutorial from sony:
unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/instructions
But i got my "Bootloader unlock allowed: no"
I've seen one website that we can unlock this, but we must pay for that. I don't whant to spend my money making my android "opensurce"... He should be unlock for customers.
So guys do you have any free solutions for me?
:laugh:

Nope. Gotta pay in your current status.
One of the services that unlock bootloaders did have a free unlocking weekend last year. I don't know if they will do it again.

[Q] Who is offering paid BL unlocking? Or is there a way to do it for free now?

Hey all,
I want my BL unlocked so that I can start putting some ROMS on my xperia arc. Unfortunately, as I have Rogers branded phone, I cannot follow any free unlocking tutorials. I know I before used Alejandrissimo's services, however he seems to be inactive right now.. So my question is, who is selling unlocking services right now?
Another option is to use Omnius, however I don't know what to purchase if all I want is a single bootloader unlock.
I may be incorrect but can't you use s1tool on arc to unlock?

Contact user jinx13 he offers the same service. Just search his name and you will find.

I want to reove sim lock !
The only option is to use setools which is a paid service, this will unlock SIM card and also unlock bootloader without losing drm etc, however the bootloader can be relocked.
xda member jinx13 offers this via remote access, search his name in search bar.

Check the Internet for one of the SIM unlock services for your area. For example in Canada I can get a Xperia Arc unlocked(allows you to use any provider) for $8.
If none are available in your area(for provider) then maybe you will need the advise above and unlock the BL....for bootloader I used Alejandrissimo

Just use Omnius then.
In many countries this service is available in local shops that sell and repair mobile phones for small price. Since you dont know english that well you should consider that instead of using google and xda to find it...
This thread is old, but maybe someone still searching for solution... here it is:

[Q] Unlock AT&T Xperia S

OK guys so I got a new Xperia S from a cousin that moved in from the USA. The phone is locked onto AT&T. I currently haven't got the phone (cousin is kissing it goodbye for a few days). So does the phone have a SIM in it that I should remove? Also is there any free way to unlock it so it can work with any SIM carrier? I am in the EU. Thanks guys. If there is no free way please give some cheap alternatives. Thanks again.

He is correct. AT&T never sold the Xperia S so it can't be locked to them. Any Xperia S purchased in the US is already unlocked. Now the Xperia ion is a different story.

unlock code is just for the network and that is with att, bootloader is with sony. this may take time just like with the x10 which sony claims that the bootloader cannot be unlocked (well devs got it uunlocked) it was unlocked but its a dead phone that time since xperia arc was already selling like pancakes
sony is playing with us? Oh god...
Sony is the one who locked the boot per request of ATT. Now once ATT drop this device I am sure Sony will unlock it for us. Now the sim unlock is a different story as you will have to fight ATT to do that one and with new rules this will only be harder to do from here out.
I just wish they drop the phone asap so that to get bootloader unlock...
that's it.

I requested SIM unlock from att under the guise i was traveling abroad. Got the code in less than a week. Now, understand that it's made no difference in how the phone operates, but they did unlock it.

So maybe we could try writing sony reminding them that the Ion is no longer sold at ATT?!?

Yes it has long been dropped but to be honest it does not look like we will ever have a unlock for any of the locked devices.
you could merge this thread with this other

I would like to know how... i requested my unlock code and when i received it.. i tried five times with no unlock... after calling att after each attempt they just said try again. on my last attempt, they told me my device wasn't eligible for unlock. AFTER.... they had sent me my IMEI specific unlock code. when i requested another code for another ion that i have a few months later. they still show its not able to be unlocked. give me the name of the person who fave you your unlock code. i want to talk with them!!
