Today I bring you the way to unlock the bootloader of your Xperia officially. This achievement has been achieved thanks to a joint claim from HTCmania led by the user ElHechicero.
Let's first explain what unlocking the bootloader is for. The bootloader is the bootloader of our device, when unlocking the bootloader we can install custom roms and modified kernels.
Steps
Well let's go to trouble to be able to unlock the bootloader of our Xperia we will have to:
- The mobile must be free or if it is tied to a permanence, it must be released by third parties in order to have the SimLock code.
- Once the SimLock is unlocked, we will send the following email to Sony with our data.
destinatario: questions.es@support.sonymobile.com Subject: Xperia FastBoot Unlock Request S - IMEI: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Body: Gooddays / afternoons. I have a XperiaS (or whatever) which does not have permanence with any operator and I have the Simlock unlocking code that the operator has provided me. For this reason I request the unlocking of the FastBoot that would change the "Rooting Status: Bootloader Unlock Allowed" to YES to have the same privileges as a FREE terminal and be able to later if I wish to request on your website to open the Bootloader and apply root, something that now The same is impossible for me due to the previous limitation that obviously I should not have since the terminal does not have any permanence. For this I provide the data of my terminal: IMEI: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (the one that comes out by dialing * # 06 * on the terminal's telephone dialer) SimUnlock Code:zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz (the one that you have provided to release the SIMLock and will confirm that the terminal is released) Model: XPeriaS Mail : fulanito@gmail.com Tel: 666111222 Without any other particular, receive a cordial greeting and I await your response. Thanks. Fulanito
- After sending it to you, Sony will respond to the mail or if it takes too long, we can calll 902882250 and all that remains is to agree on a date for the collection of the terminal.
- They take about 4 days to bring it back to you from the moment they pick it up.
- Now that we have it back we can release the bootloader from this page.

Is that only for Spain or for the whole world?
In principle it works in Spain, but there are some users from other countries who have succeeded, to try it does not hurt.
