Sorry for the newbie question, but tried to do this and instead of "relock" appeared "unlock" and gave me an error in flashtool. In the menu shows bootloader unlockable "yes". But I guess it's not so the DRM keys work but the OTAs give error and PC Co. doesn't detect any updates. Thanks.:silly:

Relock code

Hello there!

I did relock my phone with TA backup but question remains... where i find this new unlocking code after relocking?
Where is it shown?
Did i miss it from the text and can't i get it back if so?

Thanks!

Unlocking code is always the same.

Hi guys! I need to relock the xperia z I am having because I am selling to a friend. I want it to be as close to "original" as possible because I used miui rom on it. I am seing stuff about keys etc. What does it mean?

I did the unlock thingy by http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/

What am I missing and what should I do? Can I just do according to first post and flash a stock firmware and press relock?

When you have car problems with your car, you won't just go in and say: I have problem with the engine thingy....
Be more specific!:good:
