Cannot boot with Vol+ ?

Hi,
Im trying to use your tutorial to unlock my bootloader,
I have everything downloaded and on my desktop.

My Live with Walkman doesn't want to boot with me holding the Vol+ key,
It just continues onto the offline charging? Volume- Brings me to a black
screen with a Green LED and an S1 Boot flash or something in device manager,
It installs a driver called 'SEMC Flash' then?

I've tried the program with this mode, but nothing?

Thanks for all help :)
Jamie :)

Have you checked that your phone is unlockable...?

And the correct process is shut down your phone, hold volume up button, connect the usb cable on the phone side then connect the usb to your PC. Blue button should light up.

Make also sure your pc driver's are ok.

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.
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.

i can't unlock bootloader, can i root this phone?

I have questions about that.. I'm nooh with xperias..
First.. I have the stock firmware with .62 I don't have root permissions.. My question is. If I unlock my bootloader and flash a kernel, I have root permissions? I can flash roms only with the kernel? I don't need more to flash roms? .. I need an answer please :)

Answer : If you have stock rom with any version of firmware, especially with 0.62 and above we have to unlock before get root. Because higher security and up to now we cant find any exploit to get root as old method we did : zergRush. So we have to unlock to reflash the kernel in boot partition.

After unlock your phone please flash by this tool with custom kernel i provided (credits for bbooff) and you will get root with CWM v5.2.7.

Unlocking bootloader is not needed for .62 and higher. You can just downgrade to .58 or older version, root your phone and then make OTA update to .62.

CWM does not give root rights. Some kernels have specific function.

When I bought it with a release of the first programs to unlock that is octopusbox.com, and it worked, my network is unlocked, but now I've been reading about unlocking bootloader but my LWW says Bootloader unlock allowed says NO :(

I thought there was another way to put "yes" without paying back = /

    Warning : This tool will automatically get unlock code and unlock your phone before you flash custom kernel to root and install CWM. If you want to update firmware by SEUS, PC Companion or Update Manager in your phone(OTA). Please relock your bootloader.

    Before to do follow these instructions. Please go to Dialpad and press :
    *#*#7378423#*#* . Go to Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status. Look at Boot loader unlocked allow and if it's show No you cant unlock bootloader. Otherwise, you can unlock your bootloader.
