What Windows version are you on, cappone76? Did the installation finish with a window showing a green tickmark next to the drivers you selected?

ok everything is resolved already, but I do not know how to unlock the bootloader Xperia ZL

bootloader
psycho-punk said:
Google 'unlock bootloader'. Click the link to Sony's page, follow all the instructions until you get the bootloader unlock code and stop, no need to download the Android SDK as it says. Keep the code.
Before you unlock the bootloader, you may want to backup your TA partition, you can find the guide here on XDA.
After all that, in Flashtool, click the BLU icon, follow the steps and unlock the bootloader by entering the code you got earlier.

Can. Turn-off phone, then press and hold "Menu" button. Connect phone to computer. The LED will turn to blue color. Now, it is in fastboot mode.

Then your bootloader isn't unlocked.
Keypad, type in *#*#7378423#*#*, Service Info, Configuration
If you see this
Code:
Bootloader unlocked: Yes
or this
Code:
Bootloader unlock allowed: Yes
then you can enter fastboot mode.
If you see this
Code:
Bootloader unlock allowed: No
then you can not enter fastboot.
Anymore questions?

hello,

in flashtool 0.9.10.1 i flash my device completely, then i attach a phone for fastboot,
everything going right, but when i click Lighting ICON => fastboot => OK nothing happen
need your help urgent
thanks in advance
You have to make sure that your phone has unlocked bootloader, if it says "bootloader unlock allowed: yes" it doesn't mean your phone is unlocked, it only tells you that it can be unlocked.
If you have TrackID, try to play it, if it can be played, then the bootloader is still locked.
For unlocking, try the link below. And don't forget to thank them.

Put your phone into fastboot mode first (turn off your phone, hold down menu button and then connect the USB cable, blue LED shall light on).

Just DON'T install it. My Xperia Arc s is locked bootloader and i tried to install Ultimate HD Rom twice, but no hope after installation Sony logo stucks!
first time i solved it by using Update Service.
second time (NOW) still on Sony logo and Update Service isn't working, it says "You already have the latest software installed"
so for now I'm searching for a way to fix it

Just SOLVED IT! :laugh:
I flashed stock firmware using flash tool
stock firmware link by a member in the forum: http://www.mediafire.com/?rhr59r4o6oarnfx
then::
1. rooted the device
2. installed CWM
3. wiped everything
4. installed UHD and choosing just one app to install
5. unticked reboot
6. wiped Dalvik Cache ONLY
7. reboot device from CWM
8. Enjoyed UHD
UHD is stock based so it will work on locked boot loader, if it doesnt then you're doing something wrongly.

Not necessarily! choosing to install all the apps in the AROMA Installer causes sticking on Sony logo in locked bootloaders.

Unlock your bootloader, flash a custom kernel and install a custom ROM. It can be done since you can unlock bootloader.

Yes, you are doing all good. However, you will need to install fastboot drivers first. Which OS are you using on your PC?
Thanks for reply, I have tried eRoot, It detects my phone (LT15a) runs complete process displays some form in the end asking for phone model, number and comments. I provided data but nothing happened.
I also removed eroot folder in appdata and retry this process again nothing happened.
My phone have rogers firmware
I have copied drivers from sonywebsite to android sdk folder (as suggested in official sony website)

For eroot , you dont need sdk.

No, for Eroot your phone must be in normal mode, turned on, USB Debugging ticked, Unknown Sources ticked.
Yes Settings were correct
I tried again but nothing changed
(I am using Win 8) previously run eroot on win 7, nothing changed that time either
I have the same problem, but is still running Win8.
Hope you post the solution here - even if you found it somewhere else.

Flashing kernel, Test Point unlocked

Hi everyone!
Yesterday I unlocked bootloader of my Arc, and now I'd like to flash XUK, but.. I read that phones with bootloader unlocked by Test point method can't be flashed with a .img kernel, only with .ftf. Is that true?
And if is, how can I convert boot.img -> boot.ftf to flash it with flashtool?
Thanks a lot

First time I hear this. Definitely false statement.
On side note - Boot.img can not be converted to boot.ftf. Maybe can, but not worth the time and effort.

So there's no risk flashing in fastboot on this Arc?
Tomorrow I'll try that.
Thanks a lot again.
You can't really fail with flashing kernel, as long as you got the command right. If it does return an error in fastboot, post it here and we will find the reason.
I tried to enter into fastboot, but the phone starts to charge instead of turn blue the Led. I'm a bit confused with that, because S1 Tool shows:
RUNNING S1_EROM VER "r9A021"
SOFTWARE AID: 0001
LOADER AID: 0001
FLASH ID: "002C/00B3"
LOADER VERSION: "r4A069"
SEMC SIMLOCK CERTIFICATE
The small "r" means that bootloader is unlocked.. then, why can't I enter to fastboot?
Any help?
Thanks
Just flash a kernel with fastboot. Post the log if you need more information.
I am not sure, what are you trying to say with S1.

I can't enter to fastboot, when I try it, the phone starts to charge, like phones with locked bootloader. That is what confuses me.
Phones with locked bootloaders can enter fastboot mode, but they wouldn't be able to flash a kernel. Flashing would end up with an error.
In your case, the fastboot is disabled then. 12W11 and earlier manufactured phones can have fastboot enabled via testpoint method. Others don't.

The guide I followed to unlock it say that:
and my phone is "Loader version: r4A069".
I have not mentioned that I unlocked simlock with NCK code provided by my telephone company before try to unlock bootloader with the testpoint method. Actually I can use any simcard from any company and it works fine, and in theory I unlocked bootloader too.. It's very confusing can't to access to fastboot in my situation.

Which guide did you follow? Using test point method to unlock bootloader should enable fastboot as well.
Test point method would have removed the simlock anyway, could have saved some bucks if you paid for the code.

No, I didn't pay for the code. When the contract with the phone company finish, they have to give the code for free.
I don't know, I'll tray again to unlock with test point.
In attached files is the guide I followed, but it's in spanish.
Here's a similar tutorial in english, but in that says phones "unlock allowed: no" cannot be unlocked with testpoint :silly:

Xperia M doesn't boot after unlocking bootloader

HELP NEEDED!
Hi guys,
So I tried to unlock bootloader on my Xperia M (C1904). And after unlocking, it doesn't boot anymore. Just shows "Sony", and "Xperia", then the wave animation forever.
First of all, I access to Sony Developer World for unlock bootloader key, then used flashtool's BLU feature. It successfully completed and said "Device will reboot into system now" However it showed the wave animation forever, (waited for around 20 or more minutes) but there was no change, so I flashed stock .ftf file via Flashmode. HOWEVER, everything was the same as before.
Then I used BLU feature again to try Re-locking the bootloader, but it said that "Processing of loader.sin finished with errors." and "Your phone bootloader cannot be officially unlocked". I am sure that my XM is bootloader unlocking supported, and flashtool successfully finished unlocking.
I searched around the Internet and found many people is having same problem with me.
I DID try using Sony PC Companion to repair the software, but as you can imagine. It simply showed ERROR.
I need your help as fast as possible.
Thank you, and sorry for my bad English btw.
PS I did read XDA threads about this problem, but nothing helped much.

Buddy download stock firmware that works with your device(c1904) and I have heard that newley flashtool have some bugs most of the peoples found it difficult to use due to error so download a old version of flashtool.
Here is the link for flashtool that I use
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3WS5xjTt_0tQTZzQmNiZFc0R2M/view?pref=2&pli=1
It works smooth and don't forget to install drivers for xperia M found in C:/Flashtool/drivers after unpacking flashtool
Thank you guys for helping me.
I tried re-locking and flashed the stock firmware, and now my XM is working normally again.
Now, the question is, "Is there a way to safely unlock bootloader without soft bricking?"

Haha, sorry but I don't speak Portuguese. I did try *#*#7378423#*#* and it says that the bootloader is unlockable. I will try to unlock it again using flashtool and report how it goes. Thx.

HELP NEEDED!
Hi guys,
So I tried to unlock bootloader on my Xperia M (C1904). And after unlocking, it doesn't boot anymore. Just shows "Sony", and "Xperia", then the wave animation forever.
First of all, I access to Sony Developer World for unlock bootloader key, then used flashtool's BLU feature. It successfully completed and said "Device will reboot into system now" However it showed the wave animation forever, (waited for around 20 or more minutes) but there was no change, so I flashed stock .ftf file via Flashmode. HOWEVER, everything was the same as before.
Then I used BLU feature again to try Re-locking the bootloader, but it said that "Processing of loader.sin finished with errors." and "Your phone bootloader cannot be officially unlocked". I am sure that my XM is bootloader unlocking supported, and flashtool successfully finished unlocking.
I searched around the Internet and found many people is having same problem with me.
I DID try using Sony PC Companion to repair the software, but as you can imagine. It simply showed ERROR.
I need your help as fast as possible.
Thank you, and sorry for my bad English btw.
PS I did read XDA threads about this problem, but nothing helped much.

flashtool bug
I had similar problems as described in the first thread.
My flashtool version was 0.9.19.8 and during the blu-process the level meter stucks.
With "new" version 09.18.1 - as mentioned in one of the early replys - everything worked well.

Thank you guys for helping me.
I tried re-locking and flashed the stock firmware, and now my XM is working normally again.
Now, the question is, "Is there a way to safely unlock bootloader without soft bricking?"

Buddy for first time soft bricking happens with all it happened with me too because for first time the DRM keys (a kind of key used to get sony official support and update OTA) get wiped forever since DRM keys are integral part of BOOT so it will led to softbrick only for first time after that you can easily unlock or relock your Device

I am facing a similar issue.......
Unlocked by fastboot..... received [okay]....... seemed Unlocked and then bootloop....
After flashing again with the stock rom [generated by Flashtool decryption of Sony PC companion folder C:\ProgramData\Sony Mobile\Update Engine\db\13740270\blob_fs]....... I am not able to install TWRP recovery...
Now I am not sure whether the bootloader is locked or unlocked......
Is there a way to check........ further I intend to install CM13........ how to proceed...

Well, you should be able to check if your device is unlocked when you connect to flashtool, can't you?

How can I relock the bootloader and unbrick?

BND-L34
My phone is bricked, I lost my drivers, and I lost the unlock code.
I deleted TWRP, and I need BND-L34 drivers to relock the bootloader.
I can't get into fastboot mode without adb drivers.
I plan on using the dload method after I relock the bootloader.
I also need the unlock code back, or a new one because I think my
huawei account was deleted.
I need:
link to BND-L34 drivers adb, fastboot
and a method to relock and reunlock the bootloader.
The goal is to get working fastboot, adb.
And I'm supposed to be fine after I get the drivers.
And the last goal is to get the bootloader relocked,
so I can get the phone unbricked, then unlock it after.
I tried installing the update.zip and other zips in TWRP but it wouldn't work.
Anyways thanks. :good:

There was a post on XDA 7X Telegram group by nahil stating he retrieved his unlock code from the bash history on his phone.

Okay thanks, how will i get the drivers? I can't access my phone on my ADB on my PC anymore, I reinstalled my OS on my PC, idk if that has to do with it. Also where is this post? And what is bash history?

Also, the splash2 partition is the bootloader log section.
I found , but have not tried yet. A possible way to pull images from device without twrp
"fastboot oem dump emmc "partition name" "save location" "
If you can get that partition out and grep it for "unlock" perhaps you will find your code.
No special drivers are needed. Generic adb/fastboot drivers should be fine.
Search xda for 5 minute minimal adb /fastboot

Installing hisuite would probably be an easy way to get the drivers. I don't have a clue how to get to The Bash or search it.

Bash history would only be of you are on Linux.
And to top has said he recently reinstalled his whole PC OS, so there would be no history anyway..
My finding of the unlock code on the splash2 partition seems to be possibly a dead end as I think the log file is overwritten

When I plug the phone in and I have hisuite, I kinda don't have an os on my phone, like I said I was bricked. Is there another way besides the Hisuite?
does huawei have mate se adb drivers or anything on their website? Also is their a way I can re-get the unlock code back without history
if you installed hisuite than you have the drivers.

It isn't recognizing it.
And that explains why the adb and fastboot doesn't work.
Update: I sent it in, and it's being fixed for me.
