First, need to download this files:

SETool Lastest version

USB Over network (For Remote Dongle)

Teamviewer (For Remote Support)

After connect the remote dongle (or your box if you have it) you will be able to run SETool Software and look like this:

There is a log from a identify option with an LT15 connected.

The unlocking process is easy to do.

First, after install USB Flash drivers, same as flashtool and select correct settings (signed mode, use alternative bypass, full unlock) on setool just click on Unlock/Repair button and connect the phone in flash mode (with back key pressed)

Second, this message will appear:

DETACH USB CABLE FROM PHONE

REMOVE BATTERY FROM PHONE

ATTACH TESTPOINT

PRESS "READY", THEN ATTACH USB CABLE TO PHONE

Now we detach the cable and remove the battery and attach the testpoint with a piece of wire like in this pictures:

There is a sticker below the SIM slot, just remove it.

This is my way to do, but its up to you how to make the bridge between the negative battery pin and the testpoint.

Now hold on the testpoint and connect the cable to the phone again and press ready on SETool, a new hardware will be detected. Install the drivers.

When you see:

PROCESSING ...

REMOVE TESTPOINT NOW, THEN PRESS "READY"

release the testpoint bridge and if you want remove the wire from negative pin and press READY button and you will see this:

PLEASE ATTACH TURNED OFF PHONE NOW

PRESS AND HOLD "BACK" BUTTON ...

Almost done.

When you see this:

Your bootloader and sim are unlocked and fastboot enabled.
[Xperia Arc General] Alejandrissimo:
Its not advertising, I don't own any special or unique tool, just offer a service since there a lot of people with locked bootloaders and wants to unlock it by the cheapest way possible.
[Xperia Arc General] Alejandrissimo:
well yes, its a bussiness to the owner of SETool, not a great deal for me, I just want to bring an option to SEMC phones owners since there is no any option to unlock the bootloader until now.

BTW its not free for me :)
[Xperia Arc General] sdlaurin:
I think even blagus said it will cost money but be cheap when he is done his tool also because it unlocks carrier also.
[Xperia Arc General] thatsupnow:
Your right Blagus did say that it wouldn't be free but cheap its supposed to be a non remote test point method that's super easy to do
[Xperia Arc General] anikill3010:
put a free way or put a mark """ NO FREE""" and cost for simulock + unlock bootloader.

this may be SPAM.
[Xperia Arc General] Alejandrissimo:
No this is not Spam

If you have SETool you can do it by yourself

If not and you want to do it please PM me
[Xperia Arc General] desgardius:
Big thanks to Alejandrissimo! Had Rogers sim locked and bootloader locked Xperia ARC. Able to confirm that I get a blue light to enter fastboot mode and my phone is now sim unlocked =)!
[Xperia Arc General] Alejandrissimo:
My pleasure buddy, thanks for trust :D
[Xperia Arc General] black97one:
thanks

Big BIG BIG thanks to Alejandrissimo! I Have now sim unlocked and bootloader unlocked "Xperia ARC SFR from france"

and a custom kernel :p
[Xperia Arc General] Alejandrissimo:
Glad to see you are happy with this :D lets fry some cheezeburgers on 1.9 GHz overclocked Arc
[Xperia Arc General] Alejandrissimo:
As far as i know sim unlocking by code doesn't enable fastboot on a locked device. If you not have fastboot you can't unlock your bootloader :)

Btw I've never seen an arc play or Neo with Android 2.1, i think your information source its a bit old.

you don't need to pay to anyone just buy your setool and credits.

There is no battery present on the unlocking process. its hard to damage the phone in this situation.
[Xperia Arc General] thatsupnow:
Buddy is retarded if he thinks he can just buy an unlock code off ebay input the code and fastboot gets enabled get real everybody would have done that and 29 bucks is peanuts how do you not have that kind of cash just laying around
[Xperia Arc General] ronald.neri:
That's not what I said. And no, not all people are blessed enough to just give away that kind of money.

I forgot to say that fastboot must be enabled to unlock bootloader as per the Sony Ericsson instructions. It did say that not all devices have fastboot enabled and that the phone has to be SIM-unlocked as well. Yeah, yeah, yeah... the green light and the blue light.

But that's not what I am here for. I'm not interested in unlocking the bootloader. Just wanted to have the SIM unlocked which comes with Alejandrissimo's method. The fastest but not the cheapest.

Nonetheless, the upfront payment should have been posted right from the very first post.
[Xperia Arc General] Alejandrissimo:
I think in this particular forum nobody cares about sim unlocking. BL unlocking is the reason.

If you need it obviously best way is by imei :)

Maybe you know it but xperia unlocking its not free with setool. I need to buy credits to do it and my card can gets damaged by bad commands during remote connection.
[Xperia Arc General] ronald.neri:
I totally understand. I searched around and was shocked at how much those dongles and credits cost. Your service is still the cheapest as mentioned in my first comment.

I guess I was just too frustrated to get a SIM unlock code instantly at a cheap price and your method was a shortcut.

Thanks, anyway. It is good to see that people who availed of your service are happy which is what is important.
[Xperia Arc General] yanki99:
just wonder if the BL can be relock again with this method?
[Xperia Arc General] poweronat:
Problems solved after partial unlock via octopus software

Alejandrissimo made my day:

Yesterday i unlocked my LT18i via "Octopus Se Software", a remote unlock service where you have to pay credits and do the unlock by yourselve. (paperclip method)

It all wents straight forward, but after unlocking the Simlock war removed but the bootloader still stayed locked.

Ok, my fault i should had checked that before.

So as i want to have a unlocked bootloader i asked Alejandrissimo to do the unlocking for me today:

As described i downloaded the software, also i did a test with conecting the phone in "Zeus-mode" to install the proper drivers. Alejandrissimo did the unlocking via Teamviewer, all looked OK so far.

BUT after unlocking the Phone seemed to be bricked: Phone not booting, no LED after turning on, Flash-Mode (holding Back-button when connecting USB) was not working.

Alejandrissimo spent about 4 hours on trying to do the procedure again, flashing the phone firmware via setools, and finally collecting infos and logfiles to ask the developers of setools for an solution.

After all, the problem was a modified HW-config (phps made by Octopus Software) that resultet in a semi-bricked phone after doing further modifications thru setools.

Alejandrissimo found a solution to rebuild the HW-config and did a complete reinstall of the device. (i had to pay some extra bucks for rewriting the HW-config)

Now my device is fully unlocked and working like a charm!

BIG BIG THANKS to Alejandrissimo for helping me out, he did not give up and really wanted to help and not earn fast money.

i don't know if the relock be done so connect my ARC to SEUS in order to check and..... it WORK :rolleyes:

at this times i had the STOCK ROM and STOCK KERNEL

also i connect my ARC in FASTBOOT MODE and try to flash an other KERNEL........ he work too :eek:

i dont undertand....but it's GREAT (my bootloader is locked or not now????)

Alejandrissimo can you check if you were able to UPDATED WITH SEUS?
[Xperia Arc General] Alejandrissimo:
Yes bro, you can use SEUS with unlocked bootloader by alternative bypass with SETool.

No need to relock the phone at all :D
[Xperia Arc General] black97one:
do you already know that?

do you know if OTA UPDATE don't brick the ARC??

it's the best way at the moment to unlock bootloarder

thanks again :D
[Xperia Arc General] Alejandrissimo:
Yes I know that because setool developer mention it.

I dont know if OTA works but i think yes, we will need to wait for ota updates to check that.
[Xperia Arc General] yanki99:
my another interesting question. With this unlock bootloader method availabile, would it mean that there is chance for those unlock BL via office SE can recover DRM? Seem that unlock with SETOOL wil maintain the DRM key..... therefore there may be a soruce for getting the DRM key and user data ..

any expert can comment? thanks
[Xperia Arc General] Alejandrissimo:
well I dont know, but setool can recover the phone with semcboot damaged so I think maybe after a recovery operation phone can get back the DRM key, maybe.
[Xperia Arc General] stefauresi:
hello,

could you help me unlock my Xperia ARC.

I am on the network Bouygues Telecom France.

I have a sim unlocked unit (LT15a was branded to Rogers but sim unlocked, I have flashed it to US generic and rooted it) but would like to unlock the bootloader without wiping the user partition and my DRM keys, am I correct that this service is able to do this? I know I can unlock with SE's service for free but it will wipe this and I do not want to.

If so I am interested provided the cost is not too steep.

Hi Alejandrissimo, ¿can you do the same sim-unlock + bootloader-unlock to the new Xperia Arc S locked to Orange Spain?

Thanks.
[Xperia Arc General] Alejandrissimo:
Sure I can :D
[Xperia Arc General] RoberM:
w00t! I should receive the phone in a week or two (damn it is taking forever), so as soon as it arrives, i will contact you asking for further details.

To clarify this if you do this to my incoming Arc S (LT18i):

- It will be bootloader-unlocked

- Sim-unlocked

- DRM would be intact, so TrackID and other SE stuff would still work

- I would be able to flash future custom ROMs

- I would be able to flash Official ROMS

- I could use SEUS or PC Companion to update even with the unlocked bootloader

am i right?
