Hey guys.
My friend just bought the Xperia E(single).
The BL is locked.
But she want's to run CM, or any AOSP rom.
I don't find a perfect answer for me.
I find, we can root E with locked bl, but can't flash recovery, so can't flash rom.
Am I right?
So no chance to have AOSP rom on E with locked BL ?
Regards,

You are in the wrong thread mate. This is for Huawei Ascend P6
Looks like all Sony devices got their BL locked.

Yes they are, but Sony got online unlocking service if you want to unlock your bootloader. At least that was the case with my Xperia Arc S.

If you just want to root there is no need to unlock the bootloader.

I've flash this firmware using flasher but my wifi is not working ((
Hello. My Xperia Z1 Compact has Bootloader Unlock allowed: No. However, if I try to fastboot (volume up while connecting to PC), the device’s LED light turns into Blue.
I read somewhere that this means I actually CAN unlock the bootloader. Is it safe to try?
Thank you!

You can't unlock if says "no", you will hard brick your phone if you flash a custom kernel or a Custom ROM for unlocked bootloader

Hello, Meloferz! Thanks for replying! Well, I don't want to flash any custom kernel, I only want to get Sony's firmware updates, because my phone has an audio Bug, which has been fixed by Sony since March. My carrier told me they would not release any software update for this model, so I would like to let the phone update...
thanks in advance!!

One last question... Is it enough to get the same language firmware (spanish)? Or does it need to be one for my specific country/carrier (Perú/Movistar)? Because, I've got their latest fw installed, but that's not the one that fixes my audio bug.

You can flash any stock firmware you like. If you use Xperifirm, you can search for any you like

It becomes more interesting to me, I am looking for something to improve my Samsung Note 3 without ruining my pockets, and this Sony is one of the best candidates
EDIT: Well, what I see on Sony web is the XA1 and XA Ultra, not the XA1 Ultra.
But, maybe XA1 and XA1 Ultra have same bootloader?

It should work even you take XA1. That is why they need IMEI number to sort out. I just download the kernel source and need some info to build custom recovery. I successfully build kernel.

Sorry, but I don't understand you very well.
Do you mean : 1. We can take XA1 method for XA1 Ultra?
2. Do you have a XA1 or XA1 Ultra, and you have downloaded the kernel sources, so you can build a custom recovery?
This would be a great news for me... even if I don't get the phone yet.

I mean you can choose xa1 from the list and continue the process/ steps to unlock the bootloader. I ordered XA1 ultra and waiting for shipping. Regarding to kernel yes.. I downloaded the kernel source and build a kernel .. I am going to build TWRP recovery. But to do that I need some information etc to start working with custom recovery.
After 4 days working. I am now enjoying my XA1 ultra. Rooted+my own kernel build from source and even with working custom recovery twrp. :good:

Would unlocking the bootloader have any impact on the phone such as high image noise/poor image quality?
If not, what are the negatives of unlocking the bootloader?
Previously on my old Xperia Z2, unlocking the bootloader removes image enhancements and introduces noise in the camera...
I don't find the XA1 Ultra under the bootloader unlock list either. What model do I choose from the list - the XA1?

Yes, use XA1, no issue. We all did the same. Root and recovery is working without any problem.

Use flashtool to get the future updates.

The only way to update is by using flashtool to manually update. However, you will need to root once again after updating using the same method as before.
Also, to update via flash tool, you will need to get hold of the FTF file to update.
whats the update?

Same here. Is yours by any chance also a Canadian unit? Perhaps they're being inexplicably locked here. (Mine is from Wind/Freedom, and the service menu lists the bootloader as not allowed to be unlocked)
Have you rooted?
I don't think bootloader unlock is even possible at this point. There were quite a few threads about this posted earlier in the month/year. I would recommend checking those before creating a thread about it!

Republic wireless sells it. Think most people buy it unlocked direct from Moto, or Best buy or Amazon.

i think it's for their business, bbk (mother company of oppo, vivo, and oneplus) only release kernel source code for oneplus
oppo and vivo for average user without tweaking oriented
oneplus for high performance phones and android geeks
That means i can't install lineage os 15.1 or 16
On my vivo v9????
