Hello, well, I have a very noob question, the thing that I have to root a 10.4.1.B.0.101, from Telcel, and it seems that I can't unlock its bootloader... (Bootloader unlock allowed: No)
I need instructions to root it, I know, I could and I should find those intructions through site but I almost brick it twice tonight, so I prefer to come here to beg for intructions. PLEASE HELP! :crying::crying::crying::crying:
I'm not sure if I can try this without a unlocked bootloader.
Thank you very much!

This works without unlocking bootloader.
The only way is to downgrading to android 4.2 and then updating to .101 by flashing zip files

Nope. Bootloader unlock allowed: no means no current way to unlock it.
BTW search for this next time please as it has been discussed ad nauseum.
I just check my ZL and it says Bootloader Unlock Allowed - NO
Does that mean I will never be able to unlock the bootloader and install custom ROMS? I have my phone rooted and its also SIM free if that matters. Would someone be kind enough to explain the consequences?
TIA

Don't worry mate (if initially your "BL unlock allowed" was "yes")! I read it in the XZ rooting thread that if you root with a locked BL then you might have a bug resulting into BL unlock status to not allowed. Doomlord has also posted a fix for this, i think. Have a look at this thread. Hope it helps.

The thing is, I didn't check if I was allowed to unlock my bootloader before I rooted it (banging my head against a wall as I type this). Any way to find out?
EDIT: Nevermind, I see that I have to flash it and if I had an unlockable BL, the status changes to yes, and if not, then nothing changes. However, how do I flash this seeing as how there is no CWM out yet?
AW: Bootloader Unlock Allowed - NO!!
There is CWM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39157612
But just for unlocked bootloader...
CWM for locked bootloader would be coming... krabapple is working on it...
hi mates,
if unlocking BL, i will lose BE2 & WM right? sr if this noob question was answered before
AW: Bootloader Unlock Allowed - NO!!
Yes, you loose that functionality.
And please don't ask the same question in several threads. Ask once and have patience until someone replies.
I have Xperia Z LTE C6603 with
bootloader unlock allowed:No
I Can change this to --> bootloader unlock allowed:Yes ?
as I can change it ?
Thanks.

Using an unlock code is not risky at all. In fact using galaxsim unlock is riskier although I have used it with no issues at all. Galaxsim needs root access and don't forget to back up your EFS folder if you decide to use it.

Roll back to 4.1.1, unlock for free using instructions on here, then flash to 4.1.2.
You will need to carry out full EFS backup, then get Samsung usb drivers, and ODIN, download 4.1.1 stock image, flash, factory reset and clear cache, then carry out the unlock procedure found in these forums, then download and flash your choice of stock 4.1.2 rom, and bingo, unlocked and updated phone.

Hi everyone,
maybe this is a wrong place to post this but im getting desperate.
How can i unlock my bootloader (xperia arc s). But the major problema is when i go to details menu it says this:
bootloader unlock allowed - no
And as far as i search all people says i cant unlock it....
If someone can help me i really aprreciate. or at least tell me some good room for my phone.
I need to give it a new life. Start to close and reboot very often... and right now i dont whant to spend money in other device
Thank you all for the support.
As it says - you are not allowed to unlock the bootloader AFAIK
If you try to attempt the usual unlock bootloader, you'll get hard brick

So basicly im stuck with the phone as it is? I cant install good rooms or whatsoever? what a shame :/
Really appreciate your feedback.
thanks.
You can root your phone and install some roms with the ability to install on a locked bootloader - but most of them are GB or ICS. If youre looking for JB or KK you're out of luck

Search,there's ROMs available for locked bootloader
Hey Guys,
I am new to HTC, coz I was using a Sony Xperia Z earlier.
So now I have a HTC 816 (4G version), just want to know a way I can ROOT the phone. I have seen a guide which states how to do it, but it says to unlock the bootloader. Is there a way I can root the phone without unlocking the bootloader? Coz since I have bought this like last week, I dont wanna unlock it yet.
And also wanna know, how I can find the model no. of my phone. Like "a5_ul" etc.
Your help is really appreciated :angel:
That guide is the only one available, and you can't root your phone without unlocking your bootloader, there's just no way sorry.
Also you most likely have the a5_ul. If your on Virgin Mobile though it's the a5_chl.
To find out for sure boot into Hboot, and it will say it on that screen.
