I can make a kernel for you guys but I will need testers for that. Interested guys can PM me.
But first wait for Sony to release kernel source for this device.

First things first :-
1. What is bootloader?
> Bootloader is a piece of code that runs before android loads up. Bootloaders usually contain several ways to boot the OS kernel and also contain commands for debugging and/or modifying the kernel environment.
2. Benefits of unlocking bootloader?
> You can flash custom kernels/ROMs.
> You can ALWAYS root your device. (compelling, eh?)
> You can flash alpha builds of newer firmware ( generally newer android version ) which is under testing and not meant for end consumers.
3. Disadvantages of unlocking bootloader?
> You may void your warranty.
> You may loose some proprietary vendor software such as Bravia Engine, Download Music info etc. due to removal of DRM security keys.
> OTA updater may refuse to update your device and pop up a 'Device's software modified' message.
4. Can i unlock my bootloader?
> Go to dialer
> Type *#*#7378423#*#*
> Service info > Configuration
> Rooting status :
"Bootloader unlock allowed" - You can unlock your bootloader
"Bootloader unlock not allowed" - You cannot unlock your bootloader
Unlocking bootloader:
You can unlock bootloader in two ways:
1. Official way(Instructions Included)
2. Flashtool(Recommended)
1. Generate your unlock key by entering your IMEI. (To check your IMEI - *#06# )
2. After you have the key, use flashtool or cmd prompt to unlock. (easy?)
3. To verify, check rooting status :
"Bootloader unlock done" - Congrats, you've successfully unlocked your bootloader.
"Bootloader unlock allowed" - You can unlock your bootloader
"Bootloader unlock not allowed" - You cannot unlock your bootloader
@Shivam Kuchhal
I get info "Bootloader unlock allowed: No", so - I can or not unlock bootloader? because my message isn't "Bootloader unlock not allowed".

I was going to ask this too, like blocking the bootloader again
If you backed up TA then just restore it, it will lock your TA.
Not for free. You need to buy unlock code.if it says bootloader unlock allowed:no is there still a way to do it?
