i decided to unlock bl via official method
i follow every steps and instruction given by the sony website
but im stuck in the process of installing the fastboot driver
13.On your computer, you will be asked for drivers. Point to the usb_driver folder where you placed the android_winusb.inf-file, and select the Android Boot loader Interface-file.
i already replaced the android_winusb.inf-file that downloaded from sony website, and i also able to enter fastboot mode (LED turn blue), and i installed the google usb driver rev 7.
but when i connect phone to my computer and point the device to the usb_driver folder, nothing take place, it said: ''windows could not install driver''
plz help me to continue :highfive::highfive:

Have you set up Android SDK? That's necessary! And install the drivers provided in flashtool (flashtool installation folder>drivers).

Just check out my signature, there's a tutorial with pictures based on the sony guide, for unlocking the bootloader ;)
