I have now successfully relocked my bootloader and returned to stock ROM with my Acro S. I used the instructions and relock-files for Xperia S found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1527159
It´s good to know that it´s no problem to return to stock and a locked bootloader. I updated via Sony PC Companion so everything seems to be OK.
so which FTF file you use?
there is no FTF file for arco s ... what should we do?

Use the FTF-file for Xperia S.
this way DRM keys are lost forever, check Trak-ID

The TrackID-app works just fine, or what else do you mean by checking Trak-ID?
when you unlock bootloader you lose DRM keys, and some software installed on the phone stops working, i.e. trackID.
And "share location" in the SMS app will not work anymore once you unlocked the bootloader.
thanks...

By using the Xperia S ftf, don't you lose access to your SD card?
It's no use!
Because when you unlock bootloader, you must go to SONY net to get unlock code.
SONY know you unlock bootloader!
When your Phone get something wrong and send back to SONY, they will say no guarantee. Because you have unlock bootloader.
Do you have see the instruction at SONY net when you unlock bootloader?
So what advantage when you unlock bootloater and relock it?

no because after you flash the relock ftf is only for the bootloader, you still have to flash stock firmware again or else it won't boot

i think he knows that already, he probably wanted to switch back to stock rom from cyanogenmod, and just happened that there's a new rom out but nobody posted one that's for his region, so he needed to use pcc.

I´m aware of that. But some key-functions that I use don´t work in CM, that is ANT+ and support for Camera-button wake to camera-app.

I have unlocked my bootloader and then relocked it as stated above. But my TrackID app works just fine apparently, so that doesn´t seem affected. But I cannot send my location within the SMS-app, that´s the only thing I have encountered so far with stock-rom after relock.

Thats not even true. If ur sending in ur phone for warranty with unlocked bootloader. Sony takes a fee to restore bootloader. Else just relock bootloader urself before sending it in. So plz stop spreading lies and plz use a brain before posting.
Hi, my Acro S has an unlocked bootloader. If I flash this FTF no brand file. Will my bootloader will be locked again? Because as you've stated that the file wasn't modified in any way. Correct me if I'm wrong . Thanks.
Hi there,
I have a network unlocked Z1C which came from o2. The bootloader unlock allowed status is No but the phone is rooted. Is there anything I can do to this to unlock it? I feel like trying CM on it

If your bootloader unlock allowed status is no then you will most likely never be able to unlock that phones bootloader. I think your best bet is to contact O2 and tell them you want a phone on which the bootloader is unlockable, perhaps they can give you a special key to unlock the functionality, but I wouldn't hold my breath.
Oh and don't try CM on it, it'll just bootloop and you'll have to use SUS or PC Companion to restore a working OS.
...actually there is one hope, but it requires dismantling the phone. There is a test-point behind the battery which might enable you to put the device into a mode where it'll accept a command allowing bootloader unlock. But again, high risk, not sure if it's actually possible, easier to just sell the phone and buy an unlockable one if you want to run CM. Maybe you could even return the device, how long have you had it?
my z1c just turned up and ive got an bootloader unlock allowed :victory::victory::victory:
I have locked bootloader on EE in UK and have found that many of the tweaks I wanted can be achieved with Xposed modules. Give it a try but backup before you start.
Need a opinion by a dev
Hello there,
I was thinking about a test.
My problem is "Unlock bootloader allowed : no".
What could happen if i restore an other TA partition with "Unlock bootloader allowed : yes". I erase the old by a new one which unlockable. All i need is a TA partition build with a z1c which unlockable and the unlock code.
What do you think ?
Soory for my bad english
If you replace your ta partition it will most likely hardbrick your device.
What is a ta partition, i don't understand.
A bootloader is like a bios on motherboard.
But it is locked by a code.
The bootloader is the same on each z1c no ?

How you done this??? I tried hundred and half methods and still CAN'T unlock damn bootloader............
Hi everyone
I wanted to try going from the stock Android 4.3 to cm12.1.
My phone was bootloader locked but unlocking was allowed.
So I followed the process on the sony website and got the unlock code and entered it.
Phone then refused to restart, stuck on booting screen.
Eventually using Flashtool, I found a stock rom and reflashed that, still wouldn't boot. Then I relocked the bootloader and now it boots again.
However, it now says sim card is invalid and refuses to let me join the phone network (I'm in Malta, using the Go network).
Also, I'm now unable to reunlock the bootloader as it says failed when I try doing so using fastboot and says it cannot be officially unlocked when using flashtool. Worryingly for me, in settings it now says "no" for unlock allowed (it used to say "Yes").
So now, I've got a phone that otherwise works normally again except that it doesn't actually work as a mobile phone! Please help me someone as Sony have already refused to do anything to help, their customer (dis)service people simply point out that once you unlock the bootloader - even if that itself causes the problem - they will no longer help you. Cheers, thanks Sony, no way will I ever buy any product from you ever again!

i think you have missing something after unlock bootloader, and you can't give any wrong or false to sony. because you're do this with your vault and you're is vault your warranty. and sony have give you a warn sign before do this, and you accepted because you do it.
so no any vendor problem if you fail or your device is bricked.
after unlock bootloader, you need to reflash your stock rom again and do a full wipe data and cache from flashtool before flash any rom. after wipe and flash you can check your device is boot up perfectly without any problem. you only missed that. try to reunlock if still can, but try to unlock your bootloader using flashtool too.

Well on Sony's site it also says that any repair will be chargeable once you do unlock, so I would have expected them to have done something at a charge not to totally refuse to help at all. I accept what you say but I DID follow the instructions exactly, I unlocked the bootloader and rebooted it as instructed and from there it went wrong - refused to boot.
Anyway, I have tried several stock roms including even using the Sony tools and letting it do a "repair" reflash, all to no avail. "Sim Invalid" is what I'm left with and what I have noticed when flashing every stock rom with flashtool, what is missing from the "Wipe" list is cache, the only option there is "USERDATA". Is there something wrong with the flashtool perhaps?
Even when I relock the bootloader using flashtool (which I seem to need to do every time even after flashing a stock rom) it still seems to regard the phone as unlocked, or at least when you go the "BLU" screen it shows only the option to relock each time. Something has definitely screwed up here.
I got a UK stock rom via Xperifirm and used Flashtool to create the TFT from that. Still no joy. I'm assuming something is wrong with the sim lock, somehow, but how to fix this? I'm realising that reflashing stock roms doesn't totally return the phone to factory condition, so what am I missing here please? Is the phone totally stuffed now or is there still some way to repair it?
Ok so further to this, I just gone into service menu -> Sim lock and I see this:
[x] Network 0
[x] Network subset 0
[x] Service provider 0
[x] Corporate 0
[x] SIM 0
So is the phone locked or not? What does the x mean? The phone was previously fully sim unlocked as I bought it without a contract from Amazon. Is there a way to fix this please?
help me please
i have xperia m, after unlocking bootloader it stuck on bootlooping, i have not enable usb debugging...any way to fix it?
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

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

Well, you should be able to check if your device is unlocked when you connect to flashtool, can't you?
I have one Moto Z2 Force (XT1789-05), bought from coolicool.com, I didn't know device came Unlocked Bootloader, Device rom had problem with many apps, I googled and found one topic in XDA developer to Install Stock Rom, I downloaded and Installed India Rom, it's worked somehow fine, but still had problem, I downloaded Verizon Rom, Android 8, after Installed Android 8 Verizon Rom, Locked device bootloader immediately, now device stuck at Welcome Wizard in Android 8, after select language I got this message: (Please wait, this may take a few minutes) this is proof video (http://ahmn.co/Upload/IMG_0161.MOV), after this issue, device already locked, I can't unlock, because need to go to the Developer Option in Setting, I stucked in Welcome Wizard, there isn't any bypass, So, I start to search in Google, XDA-Forum, Android Central and more, I created many threads, many requests, no one can't help me, I tried to reach google developer support to the tell to me how can I bypass Android 8 Welcome Wizard, there is must be a way, but I can't find it, now I can access to Android Recovery and Bootloader
1. if you help me to FORCE UNLOCK device without need Developer Option in setting my problem will solve
2. If you help me to Bypass Android Welcome Wizard, access setting and enable OEM Unlock
3. If you help me to update the device from Android 8 to Android 9 Verizon ROM via ADB Sideload or Update from SD card in Recovery mode
4. If you have any idea to how can I fix it
Extra Information: I bought Belkin and Uni USB-C to Ethernet Adaptor to help me bypass Android 8 Welcome Wizard, I bought WSKY WIFI Adaptor because device Wifi can't find any network (I found QR setup by tap several times in Language Selection), after this section need to download google device policy apk, my device can't find any Wifi Network and my Ethernet Adaptor can't help me either, So, I just remained with my phone, and I can't do anything,
Please, someone, help me
My Device SKU: XT1789-05
These coolicool phones always come with the wrong firmware install, the simple solution to that is to flash the correct firmware which is plain old RETAIL. Solved. That's for anyone who might have or end up with one of these phones.
As for your phone and since you're in the situation you are I'd flash VZW pie. That isn't the correct firmware for your phone, but you've got a locked BL with VZW on it now and nothing is working. Since your ultimate goal is to flash pie anyways, that's what I'd do. Maybe that will clean up your system enough to enable oem unlock. If you can get your BL unlocked, then you're half way there. Surely by now you've realized that you haven't got many if any options.

as you know bootloader locked and there isn't a simple way, with locked bootloader I can't flash this file, (Remote Failure) error
thanks a lot

These coolicool phones always come with the wrong firmware install, the simple solution to that is to flash the correct firmware which is plain old RETAIL. Solved. That's for anyone who might have or end up with one of these phones.
As for your phone and since you're in the situation you are I'd flash VZW pie. That isn't the correct firmware for your phone, but you've got a locked BL with VZW on it now and nothing is working. Since your ultimate goal is to flash pie anyways, that's what I'd do. Maybe that will clean up your system enough to enable oem unlock. If you can get your BL unlocked, then you're half way there. Surely by now you've realized that you haven't got many if any options.

Hi, could you solve your problem? I have a moto xt1789-05 with the bootloader locked and it doesn't allow me to start the developer options. I'm looking for a solution if you could?

You need to elaborate. Is oem unlocking grey out? Are you signed into google services? Do you have wifi and/or radio?

thank you for responding 41rw4lk, what happens is that I can not access because it does not pass from the logo of motorola then it restarts when i try flash whith the retail version of brazil, but when i flash whith the versions at&t oreo or amx of telcel when turning on the moto I get the message your device is corrupt it cant be trusted and will not boot. I have seen some videos In which it has worked but not specify the bootloader status

You shouldn't flash firmware from other variants like att, etc. However, if you're able to flash those firmwares and not get any permission denied errors then your bootloader is unlocked, which is good. If you have NOT flashed a pie firmware, good, do NOT do it until everything is up and running and you're sorted. If you have, then you'll need to use pie firmware to fix it since once you flash a pie modem there is no going back to an oreo modem.
Run this command from bootloader/fastboot mode and post back your output.

fastboot getvar all
