I'm on the latest official OTA of 4.2.1
Do I need to unlock the bootloader to root?
I read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2187982
and I'm still not sure whats happening...
I was trying to unlock bl with the official mode but it fails everytime. In service menu it says bootloader unlock allowed: yes, but nothing works. I cant unlock with s1tool bcuz not recognized simlock certificate. What can I do?

Hi All, I have been unable to re-root and unlock the bootloader. I was unlocked and rooted but when messing with some setting on the phone I was stuck in a bootloop on the Jelly Beans Rom B10. So I went ahead and flashed back to stock. Now I want to be able to go back to being rooted and unlocked. So when I follow the directions in letting the bootloader unlocked.
My question is why there is no software that can sim unlock xperia x10, i mean access has been obtained to the bootloader and everything inside, i dont understand why there is no method to sim unlock this cellphone, other android cellphones that are succesfully rooted and hacked their bootloader are super easy to sim unlock just one button press like samsung galaxy so my question is why cant they
Hello!
I just purchased a Sony Ericsson Arc, and I would like to unlock the bootloader, as I found out Sony Ericsson doesn't allow me to do it (Unlock bootloader mode: No).
I noticed that there are two options in WotanServer's website: one is 4.99 euros and the other one is 1.99 euros. I would like to know which one allows me to unlock the bootloader and run it as fastboot...
Well, was a new version of flashtools :silly: my bootloader is lock, can I unlock the bootloader if say Bootloader Unlock Allowed: NO?
sorry my bad english.
Hello!
I bought a Transformer Tf700 the other day and stupid as I was ( It seems ) updated it to JB before unlocking the bootloader and rooting the device.
So I have been searching around the forums, but it seems that there is no way to actually Root a JB device that did not unlock the bootloader in beforehand.
So my question is can I root&unlock the device?
The guides I have read on
