Xperia S bootloader locked by Telcel Mexico

ViciousCC · Jun 18, 2012

Hello All

I was reading about how to root my Xperia S, I saw I need to unlock my bootloader, however my operator put a lock on my phone and I think I can't unlock it with the official way, is there another way to have root on my phone with android 2.3.7

Thanks!

There is no way yet to unlock the bootloader, I am in Mexico and my phone is locked too, I have a way to debrand your phone to recieve updates or upgrades instead of waiting for telcel, if you want it send me a private message and will show you how

Hi Im From Mexico too and attached to telcel, right now the only thing you cand o its upgrade your software with a generic FTF file, i recommend you the one from UK Generic... its .75 and works fine!, it will unbrand your xperia too

Im looking right now if there is a way to obtain a unlock code from telcel, because right now its in "amigo" and dont have contrat with them.... but i dont get an answer yet

I don't think telcel give you a some kind of code for unlock your bootlader, i went to a sony store and they can do anything too.... that suck but well if you find something new please let me now

same here, I bought my Xperia S directly to Sony Mexico, and it is locked too, I talked with Sony like 5 times, each one with different person and all said the same, that it is locked because in Mexico, there are not unlocked devices, no matter who sold it. They said that I have to talk with telcel so maybe they can give me the unlock code, will let you know if I will success

Hi, I was thinking in getting an Xperia S but if the bootloader is locked I won't get it.

Just to clarify, you both have done this (from: http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/instructions)

1. First, you should confirm that it is possible to unlock the boot loader of your phone by checking the service menu. In your phone, open the dialler and enter *#*#7378423#*#* to access the service menu.
2. In your phone, tap Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status. If Bootloader unlock allowed says Yes, then you can continue with the next step. If it says No, or if the status is missing, your device cannot be unlocked.

and you got the "Bootloader unlock allowed: No"?

ViciousCC · Jun 22, 2012

Yep it says "no" if you are going to Buy one it is better if you buy it on web pages, you can find it unlocked by factory

So is there another way you can get a code or does it has to be from TELCEL? i mean are there some kind of keygens or something? i bet TELCEL can't have thousands of codes for all the cellphones they have...

setool s1 servers are online so you can unlock simlock, and bootloader of any provider

ViciousCC · Jun 27, 2012

Do you have the link to setool page?

superjugy · Jun 27, 2012

and what exactly is this setool s1? and how do you use it?

ArekMe · Jun 27, 2012

SeTool2 is tool to unlock, repair etc Sony Ericsson phones.
It can unlock Xperia S (LT26) with they servers (names s1 server) it online 0:00 - 12:00 gmt

You must buy software + server credits to ulock or find someone to unlock your phone in my country cost 140 PLN ~ 32 Euro ~ 41USD

ViciousCC · Jun 28, 2012

Sounds great! Do you know were can find a guide to do it?

it's not too easy, but apart of the setool software you have to own a box to conect to your pc in order to unlock the sim and enable the fastboot, if i'm wrong then make a tutorial and teach us how???

ArekMe · Jun 28, 2012

i dont have money to buy setool for unlock one phone. so i cant make tutorial

people that unlock Xperia S do it remote by TeamViewer ... you just download software and connect Xperia to pc by USB cable, they login to your pc, then login to s1 server with their user/password and unlock

i check this metod after get salary and write more
