Can i have instructions to Relock Bootloader after using Omnius BL ??????

Just want to know how i can do it......

Thnx !
[Xperia Arc General] hdplsa:
I wanted to unlock my bootloader but I'm affraid that if I have any problem with this phone and I need to send it to the warranty, they would deny to fix my phone. Can Sony in anyway detect that I unlocked my phone's bootloader using this service and deny to fix my phone under warranty?
[Xperia Arc General] Z!GZA!G:
How do you install the drivers???
[Xperia Arc General] Anicane:
Is there any possibility of re-locking it again ? I want to know before i go any further and unlock my bootloader ? i tried contacting Omnius about it but i haven't gotten any answer from them, it might be because of Easter of something.

can anyone plz tell me if this will work if my service menu says

Bootloader unlock allowed: no?
[Xperia Arc General] Z!GZA!G:
YESSS!!! I DID IT ROGERS XPERIA ARC.!!

THANK YOU!!!

After a day of trying here are my tips!

Paperclip never worked, so I tried a Tweezer!

Many of you might have problems with the driver, so this is what I did.

Head to this thread ----> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1551494

and go to the attached file with s1tool. Download the zip and extract the usb folder. Open the folder and run the .exe which will SUCCESSFULLY install the driver. Open Omnius and just follow the instructions.

Sorry for my enthusiasm but im just too excited, I CAN GET ICS ROMS NOW!!!

Anyone have any questions, please PM me :)

[Xperia Arc General] xtacy!:
Hahaha. Sorry, that made me LOL! Red and brown aren't the colours of your arc. It won't say white. LOL!

Brown means that it's a developer phone i.e. the Not for Sale ones.
[Xperia Arc General] Cuerrix:
Thanks for the information. Mine worked flawless without any issue.

LOL at the brown Arc. :)

Ive entered my username password, ive tried disabling antivirus and firewall, moved from laptop to pc. My bootloader unlock status is yes. What does unsigned fladhing is disabled mean? I used the identify function, the same as setool and thats what it says. Also said something like unlocking source is setool. Could mine already be unlocked?

[Xperia Arc General] shootomanUK:
has anyone unlocked the bootloader of the wt19i ??

ive tried to do it but i dont understand the instructions:

1. make sure the battery is charged 50% (done)

2. switch of the phone (done)

3. remove battery wait 5 seconds and then replace battery to phone (done)

4. connect tespoint to the phones ground (how if the battery is on phone ? use wire ?)

5. shortly press power button

6. disconnect testpoint

7. connect cable to phone

could someone plese help its doing my head in lol :mad:
[Xperia Arc General] Vic.:
You have to connect the testpoint to the metal thing above your SIM card holder. And yes, you can use wire.
[Xperia Arc General] Gnavarroc:
finnaly i got my phone with bootloader unlocked

it changed from bootloader unlock allowed: no to yes and can use fastboot =))

ty a lot!
[Xperia Arc General] shootomanUK:
ok i done it,

for all them having problems with C1AE9748181EDAFA error and stuff, its either an issue with win7 64bit or you need to uninstall the sony ericsson drivers that you have installed.

i tried it on a laptop with win7 32bit that ive never even plugged my phone into before and it worked.

but when it tries to install drivers for the device point it into the direction of the omnius drivers, i.e browse .../omnius for SE/drivers/USB Flash v2.2.0.5
[Xperia Arc General] Vic.:
I'm on Win7 x64 aswell and I didn't get any error. Are you sure you logged into your OmniusServer account?
[Xperia Arc General] papayayoghurt:
Thank you

I really will say thanks to Omius, this is really a great promotion!
[Xperia Arc General] shootomanUK:
yeah i was logged in, i tried it a few times and was getting the same error.

the thing is when i was trying to do it, it never asked me to install drivers probablly because the sony drivers were installed ??
[Xperia Arc General] Vic.:
It isn't supposed to ask you to install them. When you connect your phone (with the testpoint method) to your computer, does it recognize it as "ZEUS Flash Device"? Are you sure you installed the drivers?
[Xperia Arc General] Qwerty123 \m/:
Can someone confirm if OTA works after unlocking ?
[Xperia Arc General] shootomanUK:
it identified the device , but when i tried to unlock it gave me the error code, it didnt recognize it as a "zeus flash device"

it didnt even recognize it as a "zeus flash device" on my laptop, it failed to install the drivers so i updated manually and pointed it to the omnius drivers.
[Xperia Arc General] jayman1986:
So how would you relock if needed and would it still be free to do anytime?
[Xperia Arc General] Vic.:
I don't think it works.

It's free until tomorrow.

Try to install the drivers again.
[Xperia Arc General] shootomanUK:
i dont need to it worked

---------- Post added at 08:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:58 PM ----------

So now we have "Bootloader unlock allowed: yes" does this mean we can unlock the bootloader via sony's official method or do we have to use an alternative method ??
[Xperia Arc General] Anicane:
I think, you can use both Sony's method of unlocking and this (ominus) or any other unlocking method.
[Xperia Arc General] papayayoghurt:
No, it´s unlocked. It´s only allowed Yes in Service Menu because in service, it should look that the bl is not unlocked.
[Xperia Arc General] shootomanUK:
so what do we do next if it says "bootloader unlock allowed : yes" ???
[Xperia Arc General] papayayoghurt:
The bootloader is unlocked. You can use fastboot. in my mobile there is also allowed yes and i use custom kernel and ics
[Xperia Arc General] Anicane:
So there is no need to unlock it if it is says ''yes'' ?. Because mine says yes.
[Xperia Arc General] papayayoghurt:
If you used Omnius yes, when you bought it so, without doing anytihng, no

Please press thanks at all post i helped you
[Xperia Arc General] Qwerty123 \m/:

1)Performs SIM unlock

No, you can not unlock it's bootloader, because the method only works for phone manufactured before 12W11 (11th week of 2012).

[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] iok1:
Last night i had a dream (yes a dream :P) my gio had gotten a virus. My evil mind made it a good virus, it was called l!ttle or l1ttle (don't remember)

[DREAM] I woke up, realized my gio wasn't turned on, so i switched it on. Everything was fine until i noticed an unfamiliar bootanimation. A skull with L1ttle or l!ttle written on it, then it booted. Again, my phone was acting weird. I unlocked the sim card and the madness begun. The background started flashing and the statusbar went crazy. I noticed that it sent data somewhere when i realized i have "given" someone my sim card information. Thats when i pulled the battery to make it stop. Wondering what was the problem, i took the sdcard and put it in the computer adapter, i noticed several unfamiliar folders "cwmcommands", "l1ttle or l!ttle" and a "sentdata" folder. So i examined them and thought my gio was doomed. I booted it again just to see how it behaves, once again, freaking out. It wouldn't allow me to get into recovery but i was lucky enough to get into download and flashed the first .tar i could find [/DREAM] Then i woke up

So my question is, is a virus like this possible?
[Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660] Thatgrass:
Yeah, it is POSIBLE, but i don't think it ever will happen, btw: that the worst nightmare ive ever heard!

It is possible to have malware on your gio, wich has permission to read your data and personal info, and can send it to anywhere.

[EVO Shift 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gearless:
Basically my girlfriends evo shift has pretty much bitten the dust, the backlight on the screen only works sporadically and i really don't want to fuss with trying to replace the cable, I just want to return it to sprint and get a replacement handset for her ( I know it's EOL but we can't upgrade till next year hoping replacement wont cost too much). I've been cruising the forums as well as google, trying to find a way to get it back to stock from CM7, I have read all the forum threads about how to do it I'm just having a couple issues.

1. none of the links for the ruus or roms seem to work anymore, I'm not being able to reach multiupload, don't know if its the firewall here or if the site is just buggered, anyone have an alternative d/l site?

2. HTC sync can't find the phone, windows definitely finds it ok, but htc sync says no device is connected, any thoughts?

I'd appreciate any help/thoughts anyone might have, I have full protection on our handsets so if there might even be a way to just bypass this and get sprint to replace the handset, I'd be fine with that too, I've got her info backed up so I'm rearin to get this thing done.

* weird side note, we replaced her handset last year on the 11th of April going from palm pre to the shift because her pre's keyboard stopped working, she may be annually cursed..

*I failed and writing failed...

Audio in Youtube HD is no longer working on Touch Pro 2 as of today. It worked fine for many months until yesterday, but it no longer produces any sound in HD, although pictures look fine. In low quality, it still works fine with sound. BTW, sounds works fine on my phone for all other apps.

I think it is most likely that WinMo 6.5 is no longer supported by Youtube app. At least we had a good run and low quality still works. If anyone finds otherwise or has workaround, please share it with the community.

So has CWM Recovery been fixed? The whole not being able to charge the phone if the battery died. I would like as many people to chime in so I feel assured that it either has, or has not been fixed. The latest CWM Recovery that I am inquiring about is 5.8.1.4.
[HTC Rezound] bloodymurderlive:
I still consider myself a n00b with this stuff, but it seems like I'm still having the same issues with CWM that everyone else is describing.

Most importantly for me, CWM freezes every time it tries to make a nandroid backup. I had the amon recovery, but I guess I installed CWM through the ROM Manager app, not realizing what I was doing. No matter, though, since I couldn't get amonto make a nandroid backup of my Rezound either.

So if anyone can help me figure out how to make a nandroid backup, that would be great ...
[HTC Rezound] mjh68:
I am not sure what version of Amon Ra you tried to flash or how, but are you on the new firmware or old ? Regardless, download the newest Amon ra recovery img and place it in the same folder as you used to unlock with.

Bring up a command prompt , and change directory if needed to the folder containing your image. Have phone connected in hboot so that it says fastbootusb ... then type in fastboot flash recovery "nameofrecovery".img

This will flash the recovery ...

In recovery just choose backup/restore...nand backup ..press power to confirm and it will make a backup.
[HTC Rezound] bloodymurderlive:
mjh68,

Thanks for the info. I will probably try again when I get home. But since I had problems with amon last time, do you know where I can get the version of amon that I should be using for my Rezound?

Here's my software info:

Android version 2.3.4

HTC Sense version 3.5

Software number 2.01.605.11

If amon works better than CWM currently does, at least for nandroid/B], I will definitely let you know. Too bad CWM doesn't just work, though ...

Use 3.15, use scotts clean flashtool. It taked the adb commands out. You can find it on his website

[HTC Rezound] bloodymurderlive:
Alright, I followed Scotty's "temporary recovery" instructions here: (darn, link not allowed for n00b's ... the title is "Scottys noob friendly root guide-start to finish" at androidforums)

These are the same instructions I used to root my phone in the first place.

I went into Amon.

I selected "Nand backup".

There were several options on the next screen. It looked like this:

- [X] boot

- [X] system

- [X] data

- [X] cache

- [] recovery

- [] sd-ext

- [] .android_secure

- [] .android_secure_internalsd

- [] compress_backup

- Perform Backup

- Return

I left the selections as they were, then selected "Perform Backup".

Before confirming my selection, it said:

Use Other\recoverylog2sd for errors.

I confirmed my selection. It gave me the following messages:

Performing backup : ..

Oops... something went wrong!

Please check the recovery log!

So now I'm stuck, and it looks like Amon is not working as an alternative to CWM. :confused:

I looked for Scott's clean flash tool, but I couldn't find it anywhere. Would that even make a difference?
[HTC Rezound] ericsignals:
Did you flash the ics ruu leak..if you did and are going back to gb there's a sd card patch he made. Also amon ra has a version 3.15.

I just realized, you're right ... I'm using Amon 3.14, not 3.15 ... But I don't see the download for 3.15 on the link that Scotty provided ... Anyone know where I can get it from?
