Somebody please confirm if this is working on Xperia U. As I am lil afraid of doing it. If something goes wrong i will be ****ed up
I know it was working correct on my Mini pro but dont know about Xperia U

Just a GUI version of the official thing.
It's the official way. It's just simplified.
Flashtool can do the same thing.
Can you do one app to unlock not alowed bootloaders?
My xperia U is bootloader locked why sony phone its so dificult to unlock?
Sent from my ST25i using xda app-developers app
I tested it on xperia U, working for unlocking bootloader, but when I failed ti flash KA ROM, it said the file is to big.
nice work dude, I think you should make a verification if the driver is already installed or not,
because firstly I forgot to install the driver, and this app just was not responding..
I have tried two times but it is not working. I have typed IMEI and got unlocking code but when I click on Unlock BL nothing happens.
Light is blue for fastboot, I am on Xperia S - official ICS, not rooted.
Bootloader unlock allowed - YES
Program freezes and I need to reboot virtualbox to remove it from the desktop. I am using it over virtualbox on XP and I am running Ubuntu 12.04

I think you should try it on win7, it only need about 15s to unlock your phone
Please install driver as i said if not work turnoff your phone and your computer after that turn on phone and plugin in windows to install driver !
Thank you, works for SXP. Lock and unlock the boot loader. I also flash the kernel * img previously saved CWM Recovery v 5.5.0.4.
I have tried on Win 7 and it works flawless on my SXS. For some reason it could not work over virtual box on two linux machines.
Bootloader unlocked in 10 sec on win 7.
Thanks a lot, earlier I had HTC Sensation and Motorola Atrix and unlocking bootloader on those phones was very difficult. This was just to easy :victory:
if i use this method to unlock my Xperia S, do i lose my DRM keys? or the 2012 dont have DRM keys?

Sony will know that you unlocked your phone because you give them IMEI, and for DRM keys i think that you will lose them if our phone have DRM keys.

As far as I remember, Unlocking will wipe the data ...
Is that still right with this tool?
if you unlock with this method, you lose the warranty?

I'm not sure if it was ever true. I unlocked my phone when I had GB and didn't lose data. Lately I wanted to see what version is my phone originally supposed to get so I relocked and unlocked again in ICS. Again, no loss of data.
But back up anyway, you're supposed to always take care of that...
And yes, you lose your warranty. How do you think you get the unlock code? From Sony site... this tool has a script that accesses Sony's site with your IMEI...

Yes all mentioned are enabled. I'm using stock rom and kernel. I have an older Arc which I did this unlocking easy. I swap my Arc to get this Arc S. I love the 1.4GHz increase. I'm on stock .69 GB. I tried W7 to unlock but didn't work. Here's the problem. This is on W8.

IMEI does not change. Please dial *#06# to check your IMEI. I have only heard of this problem with Samsung phones about the changing IMEI when you flash a custom ROM.

OK, firstly I won't advice you to play with your IMEI. It can be very dangerous and might result in hard brick if that's what you want. Secondly I would recommend you to gain type the IMEI code properly with one digit less at sony's website to get the key, just in case, and try to do unlock again. I'll also keep looking for this error

There is no need to mess with your IMEI at all.
If you are completely sure, that you got the correct code (enter only 14 first digits of your phone's IMEI at unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com), and it still does not work, make sure you have proper fastboot drivers installed. Personal experience shows, that the drivers from Flashtool package work just great (in Flashtool folder named drivers, by default in C:\Flashtool\drivers). I recommend you to try using Windows 7 as it is known to work there without any workarounds.

Hi members
I have an I9195L mobile and I am trying to change the firmware to I9195 so that I can root it and unlock the sim - using this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2558384.
Unfortunately, it gave me an error that shows " Secure Check Fail! : sbl 1 " . What could be the reason and how can I solve this problem and then load the new firmware?
Thanks in advance
What firmware version do you have?

I9195LUBUBMK3 - Columbia (tigo) . It was same firmware number - but another latin country -Dominican Republic (claro).
I could change to same version, but not to I9195. While changing firmware to EVR - I9195XXUBML4 , it gave me the above error
Try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2565758
It a very safe method of rooting. Unless you have a locked bootloader, which would complicate things.
You have knox bootloader that could be the problem

You can forget it. Looks like you have a locked bootloader from your network. Nothing can be done on such phones, unless your network provider decide to unlock them.

I suppose you can try again on different USB port (not a hub) or even a different PC. But if your phone truly has a locked bootloader nothing can be done.

You should've done more research before you start... Your Knox is already triggered - 0x1... Should been on 0x0
In *some* rare cases, USB port, cable or some other USB related incompatibility/problem may throw you the 'Secure Check Fail! : sbl1' error. But it rare. BUT if your phone is a vendor specific brand with a locked bootloader, NO you can't do anything. Crack a locked bootloader is on a totally different level, why do you think it more difficult to 'jailbreak' an iDevice? It because Apple has a locked bootloader.

That is what I wanted to do jailbreak the locked bootloader of I9195L version!
Before I didn't know that this phone has a locked bootloader, so I tried different options like rooting and stuff. Now I understood, this phone has it locked.
There is no such thread here for doing that for I9195L version. all are for "I9195" model.
Theoretically 9195 & 9195L are same. So what I thought, first I will change my phone to I9195 and then break it

LOL, go for it! 9195L sound like just a network specific variant, which tend to come with a locked bootloader.
A couple months back, I finished rooting my phone and installed a custom ROM, now I'm looking to sell the phone and I need to get it back to 100%
After following Uziphi's post,but when trying to relock the bootloader, I'm now greeted upon a "You device has loaded a different OS" warning, and I'm hoping to get rid of that so I can sell the phone.
It's strange because when you go into fastboot, it even says that the "Software status: Official", and after locking the bootloader, it's changed from "bootloader unlocked" to "flashing_locked" which I'm assuming that it means that it hasn't really locked the bootloader.
Basically, how do I get my phone to 100% stock, enough so that you can sell the phone, and have everything work.
Thanks!
I dunno the answer to your question, but perhaps you could just leave bootloader unlocked and flash a replacement logo.bin over it? I doubt anyone who bought it would ever notice. Either they'd never care about bootloader like a regular person, or they'd notice when they try to unlock it that it's already unlocked and not care. https://forum.xda-developers.com/z2-force/development/remove-bootloader-unlocked-warning-t3702353

I'm not sure if that goes away, someone else might know better. It was discussed somewhere in the threads, and I believe what happens is that when you unlock your bootloader the stores that info and you get a corresponding splash screen. When you re-lock your bootloader, the phone stores that info as well and stores it as unlocked and relocked. What command did you use to lock the bootloader?
Note - re-locking your bootloader should be done with caustion. If you don't have everything official and in it's place you could brick your device.

The flag is saved in DTO. Oreo OTA reset that flag somehow but most of us unlocked after or had unlocked so it stayed 1
Just an FYI on this, in this state it won't pass Safety Net, at least as far as Google Pay is concerned. That's when I really "felt" the issue. The splash screen didn't bother me so much.

Right. The flag SN checked is "bootloader unlock=" there are 3 variables. 0=never unlocked, 1=unlocked, 2=relocked. If that flag isn't 0, then CTS will fail.

What variant do you have? I may be able to work something up to at least hide the other os message if you haven't found another way by now.

Is there a way to reset/lock it properly, so that CTS passes and that damn warning upon boot is gone for good. God damn "security" bull****

After following Uziphi's post,but when trying to relock the bootloader, I'm now greeted upon a "You device has loaded a different OS" warning, and I'm hoping to get rid of that so I can sell the phone.
It's strange because when you go into fastboot, it even says that the "Software status: Official", and after locking the bootloader, it's changed from "bootloader unlocked" to "flashing_locked" which I'm assuming that it means that it hasn't really locked the bootloader.
Basically, how do I get my phone to 100% stock, enough so that you can sell the phone, and have everything work.
Thanks!

after a lot of trying to install the stock via fastboot or LMSA, the OEM unlock option simply unlocked and now I can leave the bootloader unlocked and use root
So I bought myself the Motorola G10 phone just today and I'm interested in getting it rooted.
Is there a guide pasted somewhere for this phone? So I don't mess up my phone. There's Guides on Google but I don't trust any of them. Would prefer to get it from this forum.

You wouldn't happen to know a way to get the OEM part unlocked? I hear from google results and a couple of XDA threads that it's some sort of security feature and that it'll be unlocked within a couple of days but I'm kind of impatient. It's been about a day now and I really want to get this phone Rooted as soon as possible.
The oem part being grayed out is putting a halt on everything. I've already gone through the process on the motorola website to attempt to unlock the bootloader with the access key and my phone can be unlocked... but can't tick the oem box...

Tried. I don't think it worked or I did something wrong.
Then I tried this
I put adb.exe and fastboot.exe into the system32 folder. I tested it earlier with the unlock code tutorial found on the motorola website and that worked but for some reason I can't get this command to work.

No luck
I think my adb files broke or something I don't know what's going on. Was working yesterday.

Daemon wasn't started hence why the commands wasn't working so I restarted that and went back into my fastboot and adb is not detecting my device
When my phone is on tho normally adb can detect it
You wouldn't happen to know why this is happening?
It doesn't detect it when I'm in fastboot.
EDIT: Nevermind I did "fastboot devices" and it pops up
Still can't get the above command to work tho.
If I try and unlock the bootloader the normal way I can't because oem is not enabled because it's grayed out and won't let me enable it
So I guess I'm screwed...

You have to wait something like 48/72 hours and OEM unlock option will "unlock", then you can proceed with fastboot oem unlock *code*. It was driving me crazy too, then I found out some people on Lenovo forums saying that it magically un-greyed out after some days, so I just waited 3 days and it was actually true. Unfortunately chinese phones have their own "particularities" when it comes to unlocking bootloader.

Did yours say "Connect to the internet or contact your operator"? Cause I'm worried mine is not gonna get unlocked.
It's connected to Wifi.
It's now been 3 days... still grayed out
It's now unlocked but I'm having issues.
I can't get the firmware to download through rescue and smart assistant.
So I have to use an external link. Which one do I download from this?
lolinet mirrors - firmware, software, iso etc.
lolinet mirrors - powered by h5ai
mirrors.lolinet.com

Device Model #, Codename, and Software Channel.
Build number

It's all good I got it.
I just downloaded a random build off that lolinet website from the RETEU folder > put the boot.img file onto my phone > ran magisk to patch it > then used adb to flash the magisk rom and that was it.
Ran root checker and it says I'm rooted so I did it!
Thanks for your help man.
It took me over an hour to figure out that tutorial of yours since it wasn't that clear but got it figured out at the end.
