Hi guys
I have Xperia ZL C6506 4G Unlocked (was on Rogers network, I see there are Rogers app pre installed) but it is unlocked.
I want to do software repair , maybe it will get rid of Rogers apps, but is there a chance (or how it works generally) that software repair locks the phone again on Rogers?
Many thanks

Yesterday I was updating my arc via wotan, and some people told me that the firmware works on the arc s arc normally.
I even upgraded to version ultyima and was normal.
but wondered if changes anything, if it can be harmful or not?
you wont access 3G.... the LT18a uses american 3g bands (850/1900) wether LT15 runs Euro 3g bands (900/2100)..
Let me know if you can get 3G after doing this.
Hi
I want to know if verizon locked xperia play can be unlocked to run on cdma networks outside US(by either free or paid method)???
Call Verizon and ask them directly :3
Dunno what you have to do in US to be "sim-free"; but in France, you have to wait 3 months after you brought your phone, then call the operator who will unlock it for free
However, if you want to use cdma outside the US, you have to make sure that your phone is compatible.
An example : the new iPad has a cdma antenna, but it will not work with future "4G" (cdma name in France) because it don't have the same frequency.
I recently ordered an Xperia Play.. It was advertised as Unlocked and able to work on my Local Canada Koodo Network, all i needed to do was put my SIM in and play.
Error-- this was not the case, turns out it is an international phone and it will not work on any of the local carriers services.. not Rogers, not Bell, Wind, Koodo Nothing
Is there ANYTHING I can do to change this and make it work -- Flash - Root - Anything\
PLEASE HELP
Thanks in advance...

Well which xperia play is it? Is it R800x, R800a, R800at, R800i. If you have the international xperia play it is a GSM xperia play and it should work with your GSM carriers. Are you sure you dont have the CDMA xperia play? Otherwise more info would be appreciated and no you cant change frequencies that are made by the manufacturer.
Seems you may have a R800x. That version only works with CDMA networks and was exclusively for Verizon.
Other international versions should work fine in GSM networks.
The phone itself shows r800i - it has a slot for a sim under my memory card space.
It is not accepting anything...
Am i in luck at all?

R800i should work with your local gsm carriers by inserting the slim card. Otherwise i think your sim slot is locked to a specific gsm carrier. You have to pay for a service to unlock your sim slot. But if you do have a cdma you cant change it to gsm.

Well I might be getting a xperia ZL from rogers and plan to use it on mobilicity, so my question is, I see that it says 1700mhz and 2100mhz on the hspa+ specs on the rogers site.. Does that mean aws? What I mean is will the rogers xperia ZL work with mobilicity with 3g working when unlocked? Another question is, how much would it cost to unlock the rogers version? Each site I see says to input the imei but I don't have the phone yet and am still considering it, so I'm wondering what's the cjeapest price for unlocking the rogers version
Hey guys im thinking of buying a sony Xperia ZL but on amazon there are 2 different model numbers i have phone which are C6502 and C6506. the C6506 looks like its the LTE version which is around $450 and the C6502 which is non LTE is around $360-400. would Roms work for both phones? does the model number really matter?
If ur network provider have 4g or lte buy 6605 if not buy 6602 , firmware ftf files can be flashed , network is hardware no software, actually i have 6602 is 3g red but i have it with official firmwarw 6603 working with no problems
C6506
i have the C6506 because of the 4g,
the C6506 can be 3g or 4g but the C6502 will never have 4g because of hardware limitations
also u could resell it a little bit higher
and yes, roms will work no matter what model u have, because if u buy the C6506 and the rom u like its for C6502, u can flash the C6506 baseband with flashtool and get 4g
