Click the button BLU

A pop-up window "Bootloader unlock wizard" c and your IMEI unlock code.

Click the button and wait Relock the procedure.

Close the tab, click "Close"

All your bootloader is locked again.

Turn on the phone

Open the dialer and type * # * # 7378423 # * # *

Hit line Service info

It must be so: Bootloader unlock allowed: Yes

This method can also be re-unlock the bootloader.

His unit came from a carrier/mobile network provider, so he can't unlock his phone bootloader. (or not?)

Anyone has experienced this? (see below):

Sometimes phone boots to the lock screen (useable), sometimes it just stuck at boot animation.

Clearing cache in recovery and/or letting the phone stuck at boot animation for 5 minutes and pulling and putting back the battery and turned on back the phone does help.
[Sony Xperia E1] Kizoky:
His carrier maybe force locked the Bootloader, so there's no way you can unlock it. Of course you could, but it would be a nasty hack

yes this is correct since mine says Bootloader unlock allowed: No

--UPDATE--

Currently uploading the cm11 build, THIS WILL NOT WORK!!!!!!!!!

that is why I will need the logcat

--UPDATE #2--

Link: https://mega.co.nz/#!ww02XYJ...5ZyCA-9g_c

PLEASE READ

this WILL bootloop make sure to logcat so that i can fix it!
[Sony Xperia E1] MachineZZ:
So is this rom working ?
[Sony Xperia E1] camvar97:
no it will not work, I guarantee a bootloop. (NOT BEING SARCASTIC)

Please flash and provide a logcat
[Sony Xperia E1] xezrunner:
Ohh I can't wait for CM...
[Sony Xperia E1] camvar97:
If you cannot wait please help me by providing a logcat
[Sony Xperia E1] xezrunner:
I can't because 2 days and I have my phone back from my service provider.
[Sony Xperia E1] MachineZZ:
So from where to get this logcat when i flashed and can i use philztouch recovery to flashed it ?
[Sony Xperia E1] camvar97:
Ok so when you get to the bootloop plug into pc and type adb logcat. And yes flash with philz
[Sony Xperia E1] MachineZZ:
When i type it it's stuck at waiting for devices. What to do ?
[Sony Xperia E1] camvar97:
damn i honestly don't know what to do. well sorry guys but I did the best i could do to atleast get a bootloop with adb logcat but since we dont have a logcat I cannot proceed.
[Sony Xperia E1] MachineZZ:
I think i found a fix i have to enable USB Debbuging :D Tommorow morning i will upload the log cat or atleast try!
[Sony Xperia E1] urmanio23:
Downloading right now. Did you find useful the file I shared you? [emoji28]

---------- Post added at 04:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:14 AM ----------

How did you enable debbuging if the rom isn't even working ?? :p

Well, not working I made some research and foudn that there are 3 lines that should be placed on default.prop and build.prop to make adb work on boot but since I really don't have any experience on android developement I can't split boot.img to edit the files the right way.

This are the lines that should make it work ... so says many sources. persist.service.adb.enable=1

persist.service.debuggable=1

persist.sys.usb.config=mtp,adb

Ok, I think I managed to get logcat work .. but not in a really clean way I think. I got this one from flashing your CM11 file over the working xperia rom.

---------- Post added at 07:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:30 AM ----------

I'm not sure if this was the way meant to be flashed but I did it 3 times and its the only way to make logcat to work. I flashed my stock 4.4.2 backup and booted the phone as usual, enabled the debbug and allowed the pairing with my PC. Next I rebooted on recovery and flashed the cm-11-Debug.zip without wipe anything.

After that, I turned the phone off and connected it to PC and started adb logcat > logcat.txt on a terminal (using ubuntu right now). The file starts to get filled with data. Since its bootlooped I guess it will keep fillng with redundant data so I stoped after a couple minutes.

Here is another logcat from last test. :fingers-crossed:

[Sony Xperia E1] dunker56:
So... from that expansive reply lemme see if I get this straight.

1) go to About Phone on my E1, hit the Build Number thingy a few times to enable Developer Options

2)Go to Developer Options, tick USB Debugging

3)Don't I need to do something else to allow funny sorces (like .apk/untrusted etc) yeh k Security Settings, got that.

4)Go to towelroot, get that apk file.

5)Connect phone to pc>copy apk to some location on phone?

6)Disconnect phone from pc, find the apk file on phone and run it (towelroot)

7)Sitback and wait?

NB: I have no backups of any kind so far, should i be doing one, if so how/what kind? I am also nervous of losing functionality of the 'Walkman' dedicated button after root, will it be ok?

Ok I kinda did all that, this is what I got :(
[Sony Xperia E1] urmanio23:
Mmmm what version of the firmware are you using? It should work out of the box, it does on my phone.
[Sony Xperia E1] Kizoky:
I can provide any logcat, since I unlocked my bootloader.

Looks like it is the same situtation when i tried to port some ROM, can't logcat for some reason
[Sony Xperia E1] MachineZZ:
We have a log cat but there is no information about the crash.
[Sony Xperia E1] Kizoky:
Probably because of missing files

or probably outdated drivers? Last time I tried to port cm11 for this phone All I've seen is a full white background, then 1 sec it turned into Black screen and started bootlooping.

My phone booted to your ROM, but unfortunetly it stays on the cyanogenmod loading screen
[Sony Xperia E1] MachineZZ:
We are just stuck at the cyanogenmod logo.
[Sony Xperia E1] Kizoky:
I have Aroma File Manager installed in the recovery

I'm pretty sure Android creates a log every-single-time when the device is booted
[Sony Xperia E1] MachineZZ:
I don't know men but if we have custom rom for our device it will be good but pretty much no one cares :)
[Sony Xperia E1] Kizoky:
Meh

No matter how hard i try, i just can't attach adb to my phone

I found tombstones in my data folders it is referenced to libdvm.so and libjavacore.so
[Sony Xperia E1] dunker56:
I went here https://towelroot.com/ and downloaded the apk file from the half life logo, copied across to phone and ran it that way. If there is another way....

And phone wise I'm running 4.4.2 Build Number 20.1.A.2.13

Any ideas?
[Sony Xperia E1] Kizoky:
You must downgrade to 0.47

[Sony Xperia E1] casouzaj:
Towelroot doesn't work if the new kernel is in. You have to flash the previous kernel, root your phone, then flash the new kernel back. Afterwards, it's a good measure to install and run both SuperSU and BusyBox. Shout if you need further detail's.

Googled around the internet and i still couldn't find something useful

I wish there was an adb access inside the recovery
[Sony Xperia E1] urmanio23:
I flashed the CM11 zip BUT didn't make a full wipe. As far as I could read you NEED to make at least one succesfull boot to get into ADB. Since you make a full wipe some files are missing (cant say which ones) that make adb work on boot. It might be the wrong way to do it like i did but as I understand making a full wipe isn't strictly needed, specially cause this isn't even a full working rom :P
[Sony Xperia E1] MachineZZ:
Maybe we need working kernel for this rom ?
[Sony Xperia E1] Kizoky:
I don't think the kernel will be the issue here. If we can't even save a logcat properly, then we can't really help CM11 development

The Developer tools should be enabled on this ROM by default for testing purposes, and even if you have bootloop, the adb should work still if you have the correct adb keys for your PC.
[Sony Xperia E1] MachineZZ:
What if we try to port rom from moto e they are pretty similar ?
[Sony Xperia E1] Kizoky:
The results would be the same

White background, not booting etc..

still can't get ADB to work on this godd*mn phone

OMFG OMFG can't believe it adb found my phone but it is still unauthorized

I waited about 2 mins, and it showed unauthorized

Does that mean that while it's stuck on the bootlogo, it's actually "booted"?

All I did was added some new lines in both build.prop and default.prop and somehow it recognized the adb

here's the txt file: Hope this helps http://pastebin.com/Lv7V67Ty

It always fails at Zygote and loops "F/libc ( 4891): Fatal signal 11 (SIGSEGV) at 0x0000000c (code=1), thread 4891 (zygote)"
[Sony Xperia E1] xezrunner:
Maybe there's something wrong in the configuration files. As the poster of the ROM said it's a non-working ROM, so we will need to configure stuff and delete/add things.

One thing tho, punching in *#*#7378423#*#* in dialer and going Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status shows 'Bootloader unlock allowed: No'

IS this bad? Does that mean no updates for my phone, it keeps hasselling me to do a system update etc (how to turn off).

The phone should now be good for rooted apps yes?

No.

But you can't change the kernel (expect to official Sony ones). Do you buy the phone from your mobile network provider/carrier?
