Hi I am a newbie. I had rooted my phone using Towel-root method and am even using xposed framework and am running stock version. After this to Unlock my Bootloader I fallowed procedures as given by sony, but after i entered unlock command in cmd, my xpeira m went into bootloop.
I tried repaing usning pc companion it said that my mobile has been modified and cant repair, and hence using flashtool flashed stock xperia m rom and had to root again.
But the problem is that I still receive OTA updates from Sony for Walkman and album apps. If my booloader is unlocked I shouldn't be recieving those right ? How can I confirm for sure without flashing anything ?
Another question: Now If i flash CWM from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/xpe...ery-philz-touch-6-41-6-xm-dual-t2795778/page2 will that erase my rom ? I mean do I have to flash my stock rom and reroot after flashing CWM for my device to work ?
i think i have an answer

Hi raghu,
see answer to ur first question, i dont think bootloader status will effect ur updates , because at first i tried to install CWM and went into bootloop , before that i unlocked my bootloader using flashtool, so i flashed .ftf file and went back to stock , when i tried to flash CWM i noticed that my bootloader was still unlocked , flashing .ftf didnt change it at all. i dont know whether this happened to me accidentally or it will really doesnt effect ur bootloader status but the answer is bootloader status will not effect ur updats ( as far as i knw).
answer to ur 2nd question is no it wont erase ( i am sure about it :good ur current ROM, if u flash it right. Dont worry i tried that recovery before, its gud and flash carefully, dont end up into bootloop once again ..safe flashing
thnx :good::good:
Your device's bootloader is absolutely locked if you are still receiving the OTA updates (and installing ). And I would suggest you to check the Bootloader status in Flashtool.
No flashing the CWM will not affect your current ROM

hey there,
open flashtool and look at the figure below
https://www.dropbox.com/s/ncyza0776myusll/Capture.PNG?dl=0
connect ur phone in flashmode and click on the BLU icon , then it will automatically get the code for ur IMEI and all u need to do is click Unlock and if u flash CWM on locked bootloader it wont work and u may end up in bootloop ( nt sure abt that coz never tried till nw )
hit thanks if this helps.:good::good::good:
hope this helps ,
As far as I am aware only the OTA firmware updates no longer work when you unlock your bootloader, the OTA application updates should work as intended.
For installing the kernel, all you have to do is put your device into fastboot mode, select the kernel with flashtool and then let flashtool work its magic. It won't wipe your ROM as it doesn't touch the /system partition.
You don't even need flashtool to check your bootloader unlock status either. Type in *#*#7378423#*#*, tap Service info, tap Configuration. You will see a section what says rooting status. Underneath rooting status you will find your bootloader status, it will read one of three things;
1) Bootloader unlock allowed: No (meaning you cannot unlock your bootloader, you shouldn't see this as you have unlocked yours by the sounds of the first post)
2) Bootloader unlock allowed: Yes (meaning you can unlock your bootloader, if it says this and you plan on unlocking the bootloader I hope you make backups of your TA partition cause you have no way of locking your bootloader again else. This goes for anybody reading this)
2) Bootloader unlock: Yes (meaning your bootloader is unlocked).

Thank you. Kind of newbe to this, will I loose root by flashing that rom? Will bootloader be locked again? Should I take the original or developer rom?
Again, thx
yes you have to root again. make sure to flash right after u flash any rom(global,dev)
global will be better dont go for dev.
it doesnt re-lock bootloader but if it does unlocking is easy

Easy?,Can you tell us how to unlock bootloader if not having to wait? Been looking for a guide for ages. Can you do it on global rom or only china?
if you've unlocked once
unlocking again is nt a pain
applied ,got permission in a day
unlock took a week.
i've even unlocked with find device off on a global rom.

It may work but how you're gonna flash it without the bootloader unlocked?
No I fully understand that I need to unlock bootloader, root it and get TWRP on it.
Did anyone try doing this?

What i mean is that there is no TWRP, no official way of bootloader unlocking for IQOO(vivo). They are deem to doom.
Oh that's just bloody nice

flash stock with Odin, it will lock the bootloader, the knox fuse is definitely blown - if you do it correctly it should not be an issue.
ofc all the risks are in your hands, because you are doing it

flashing stock with odin does not relock the bootloader mate
Is there no option in developer settings?

it is the first step - after that you should enter download mode and choose vol up to LOCK the bootloader
it will erase everything on the phone tho

if the phone is unlocked, that option is greyed out - but to actual lock the boot loader, flash with odin is required
