Thank you every so much !
[Sony Cross-Device General] laneyofdeath:
Yes it turns out my bl did unlock with tool even though had some usb trouble (1: se logo didn't come on went straight to doom's clerks logo 2: it turned on). Thank u very much for one of the smartest pieces of software I have ever seen :-)
[Sony Cross-Device General] desspil:
Great job men, it works well :)

BL unlocked easily, and with Doomkernel V05a it's amazing !

I only have to wait the official Cyanogen ! :cool:

Just a little question, is it possible to re-lock the BL if we had to send our phone to repair ? Thx
[Sony Cross-Device General] 9Lukas5:
Have a look at cm, the first nightlies are arrived there yet. U no the codename for x10? If not it's es209ra.

I bricked my x10 trying to unlock bootloader,had to reflash

[Sony Cross-Device General] arkedk:
You didn't brick it, if you can get it up and running with a reflash.

Hey Will This Tool Support Root In 2.3.3 And Can I Unlocked Bootloader In 2.3.3 Stock Kennel ?
[Sony Cross-Device General] gm007:
Yes you only need this tool.
[Sony Cross-Device General] silveraero:
So, now is unlock bootloader without revert to 2.1 kernel right?
[Sony Cross-Device General] desspil:
Yes, you can stay on 2.3.3 !!
[Sony Cross-Device General] bodomfan:
Will it just automatically unlock if im on dooms kernel
[Sony Cross-Device General] The Gingerbread Man:
You need stock kernal to unlock it.
[Sony Cross-Device General] :
help!!

can someone plz tell me how to unlock the bootloader so i can install the new doom kernal ...

the application doesnt even read that my phone is connected ... help!!
[Sony Cross-Device General] bodomfan:
So just flash stock kernel then it will unlock straight from the Rom im on wolf v7 beta 3

Edit:my bootloader is now unlocked
[Sony Cross-Device General] :
sorry ... im kinda knew at this.. umm what should i do??
[Sony Cross-Device General] Thelolinator:
Hey guys, this might be a silly question but I can't get Flashtool to recognise my Xperia Arc. Fastboot recognises it in recovery mode but flashtool doesn't. Anyone have any idea why?
[Sony Cross-Device General] :
Yes!! Im having the same problem!!!

X10i Wb v7b3.... hahaha!
[Sony Cross-Device General] G-FACE:
Fantastic work, mate.

Now this tool is complete.

I successfully flashed, rooted and unlocked the BL.

Keep up ;)

P.S. I wonder if this will work on x8 and x10 mini too. Cause I didn't saw them in /devices?
[Sony Cross-Device General] whmgreen:
So just to be clear: I need to be on stock firmware or rom or both to unlock the bootloader with flashtool? As of now I'm of wolf's v6 custom bypass doom kernal and on flashtool version 0.4.2 under plugins/unlock x10/ then the run option is there but it isn't an option (only faint, can't press). Can I just flash wolfs stock kernal version then unlock the bl? Or do I need to go completely back to stock everything? Or do I just need to flash the kernal downgrades first? I'm confused...thanks in advance!!
[Sony Cross-Device General] gm007:
Flash SE stock rom 2.3.3 then unlock.
[Sony Cross-Device General] riginal:
Superb work Androxyde, The tool is getting more & more powerful, Thanks

The new ui is pretty cool too, Keep up the great work
[Sony Cross-Device General] DooMLoRD:
Soon it will be even more powerful.. especially for Xperia 2011 devices.. ;)
[Sony Cross-Device General] jketankumar:
Can we have a guide for noobs

Hey Guys,

Can we have a guide for noobs regarding Unlocking bootloader and how to install custom kernel and the steps involved in it.

Hope this would be done so that it will be helpful to the community.

Thanks

Ketan
[Sony Cross-Device General] laneyofdeath:
In new flashtool there is plug in button (edit: for unlocking booltloader) I used it other day couldnt be simpler. As far as custom kernels have a good search most roms which have custom kernel include it and how to install in Roms OP
[Sony Cross-Device General] G-FACE:
What about supporting x8 and x10 minis?
[Sony Cross-Device General] Androxyde:
It's coming for X8 ... soon :-)
[Sony Cross-Device General] bornotty:
how can I download Flashtool 0.2.9.1 ? I've read in this thread that only Flashtool version 0.2.9.1 is compatible with Xperia Play (r800i)
[Sony Cross-Device General] laill:
Just a quick report.

I am using Win7 64bit,older version can run,but the newest 0.4.2.0 can not run correctly.

It cant detect my phone nor ask root permission.

In addition,it failed to close except I force terminate in in the task manager:confused:

cheers,

[Sony Cross-Device General] Androxyde:
0.4.2 is compatible with r800i too :-)
[Sony Cross-Device General] ic3tea:
After Unlocked Bootloader will I have x recovery Installed ? :-)
[Sony Cross-Device General] :
i have a problem

when i go to the plug in tab.. the run button is disabled... iv down;loaded everything that i should to unlock the bootloader could someone be kind enough to give me the entire procedure coz im kind of a nOOb... or is there a a really kind person to post a simple detailed video on how to do this??

help would be appreciated
[Sony Cross-Device General] G-FACE:
If its greyed out than probably your phone does not meet the requirements of bootloader unlockng. And that is...the phone should have SEMC simlock or to be unlocked with SEtool2.
[Sony Cross-Device General] BlackCorsar:
What kind of plug-ins will be implemented?

А какие плагины будут реализованы?
[Sony Cross-Device General] :
what are the requirements?

ok... could u plz give me the requirements to unlock the bootloader..

and also what are the disadvantages of unlocking the boot loader!!!
[Sony Cross-Device General] Sebring57:
I just little problem.I dont have unlockbootloader.

Je n arrive pas debloquer le bootloader l ecran reste sur pushing/devices/x10/features/X10unlockBL/fixparts to/data/local/tmp Est-ce normale??Merci d avance Androxyde

J ai reussi YES :)
[Sony Cross-Device General] laneyofdeath:
Basically you need to 1: flash stock 2.3.3 firmware/kernel (from first post)

2: You need to root the phone when back to stock 3: select plug-ins menu in flashtool & then select run. This will unlock bl. Very simple I promise (takes few minutes). You

must not

use this method if you have had your sim card unlocked. I believe it will remove radio.
[Sony Cross-Device General] bornotty:
ok thanks for your help =)
[Sony Cross-Device General] :
OH OK

ok... But dont u have to flash downkernel then unlock.. Then flash up upkernel.. Or something?? And also... How do u know if ur sim is locked???

Im so sorry.. But im really new at this..

Thanks alot
[Sony Cross-Device General] G-FACE:
With Flashtool you dont need Dongrade-upgrade kernel anymore. It's a simple click.

So, if your phone is Network sim-locked it's OK to unlock the bootloader.

If your phone is unlocked when it was brand new purchased its also good to go.

If you have unlocked the phone by the code provided by the operatior..you're good to go too.

If the phone was unlocked by SEtool2, again you are good to go.

BUT, if you've unlocked your phone by any other method (3rd party app, some web site) then don't try to unlock it.
[Sony Cross-Device General] silveraero:
Actually, if the filesystem version is WORLD then you can unlock with no problem instead you do something wrong...
[Sony Cross-Device General] G-FACE:
Another stupid question :D

Does Flashtool 4.2.0 can root 2011 Xperia line? I'm asking cause I dont have such handset, but I have something in mind ;)

---------- Post added at 05:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:19 PM ----------

But if it's unlocked by some 3-rd party app or website and in time he rebrand the firmware (to world or whatever)...that doesnt mean he can unlock the BL :rolleyes:
[Sony Cross-Device General] silveraero:
I think the filesystem version which contains WORLD mean it is no SIMLOCKING cause if it has SIM LOCKED, you can't use it worldwide man lol. But is there any guy rebrand his phone to local version?
[Sony Cross-Device General] G-FACE:
Maybe you are right, just a thought :)
[Sony Cross-Device General] bornotty:
hey thanks for the reply.. =)

And please help me with this..

my r800i is already bootloader unlocked and rooted with Doomlord's one click rooting method. So is it safe to use this Flashtool 0.4.2 without any problems ?

I have heard that installing a stock firmware can brick my device if I have

already rooted my phone and unlocked my bootloader

. I'm downloading firmware version 4.0.2 from here Please tell me if its safe to use that firmware ?

And last thing.. I have r800i ADB drivers installed from previous Bootloader unlocking process so do I need to install it again from your driver's folder ?

please help me with this anyone.. been spending days on figuring all these out.. since its my first android device and I come from a windows mobile family.

thanks.. =)
[Sony Cross-Device General] DooMLoRD:
Yes u can root full xperia 2011 line.... we have added the relevant code...

[Sony Cross-Device General] DooMLoRD:
yes u can safely use flashtool...

just dont accept OTA updates...

also DO NOT FLASH TO LOWER FIRMWARES... IT WILL DAMAGE UR DEVICE (0% battery problem)
[Sony Cross-Device General] sahibunlimited:
I thought that that problem is not in play and only in arc and neo
[Sony Cross-Device General] bornotty:
ok thanks again..

and no, im not flashing lower firmware.. my current firmware is

3.0.A.2.181

and I have downloaded

R800i_4.0.2.A.0.42_Generic

so that I can use your kernel :D

thanks again i will start now..

[Sony Cross-Device General] ic3tea:
What do I do after. Unlocked Bootloader ?
[Sony Cross-Device General] aR_ChRiS:
Flash DooMKernel.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Tony_C:
V 4.2.0

A couple of problems with phone recognition.

Ooddie's .28 001, has ro.product.device=Xperia. Had to change to X10 to work in 4.2.0. Oodie reported it was OK in 0.3.0.

CM is usind es209ra.

Is it documented anywhere what is to be used for correct recognition in Flash Tool?
[Sony Cross-Device General] Androxyde:
If you mean Xperia Play, this one is missing from devices folder. We forgot it. It will be added.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Tony_C:
From what I read, es209ra is being used for the X10!!!

What is the correct value(s) for ro.product.device to be properly recognized?
[Sony Cross-Device General] DooMLoRD:
https://github.com/Androxyde/Flashtool/blob/master/devicesConfig/X10/X10.properties

recognition=X10,SO-01B,es209ra
[Sony Cross-Device General] Androxyde:
the recognition property is a coma separated list of pattern to look for in ro.product.device property of /system/build.prop on the device.

The property to get the value from on /system/build.prop is set by this flashtool property : buildprop=ro.product.device

So if you have your X10.properties with the following :

buildprop=ro.product.device

recognition=X10,SO-01B,es209ra

it will look for X10, SO-01B and es209ra in /system/build.prop for the build.prop property ro.product.device

X10 is X10i or X10a in official SE ROMS. SO-01B is for DOCOMO ROMS and es209ra is for CM7 roms

When I process the recognition list, I check if the ro.product.device contains one of the recognition patterns. That's why X10 works for both X10i and X10a because X10 is a subset of X10i and X10a :-)

Hope it is clear

[Sony Cross-Device General] xftcasper2:
So frustrating..

Im on my X10i, flashed "Generic version 2.3.3 build 3.0.1.G.0.75" and "Global GGL Generic 1232-9897 build 3.0.1.G.0.75", then restarted, but Flashtool won't recognize my x10i with both firmwares..

Debugging isnt activated at first start after flashing them, may that cause the problem? If yes, how can i change that?

1. Flashed Firmware from 1st Post

2. Restarted, and immediatly after vibrating connected usb cable

3. it booted, but flashtool won't react.

?

And also, my Flashtool wont open the "plugins"-menu, nothing happens when i click on the "plugins"-button...

//: And also, can't flash the Doomkernel... just says "flashing aborted"?
[Sony Cross-Device General] Androxyde:
Try that :

Unplug your phone

Stop / restart flashtool

Enable USB debugging on your phone

Plug your phone

Also check in Device panel if you have a device with a question mark. If yes, install X10 adb drivers from drivers folder

how can we add the r800? it is also part of the 2011 xperia line but it is not in the devices folder:confused::confused:

Hey Doom, 10x for the quick answer, but I ment to install recovery trough the Flashtool's function. [the + icon] :)

is there any alternative application to use in ubuntu ?

i tried to install it and it's work (flashtool)

but i don't know about the drivers if they will work ?

any idea !!!
[Sony Cross-Device General] silveraero:
Just found that new version install xRecovery in different directory so if you install kernel on locked bootloader devices, you can't boot into xRecovery :|
[Sony Cross-Device General] plmaniek:
Thx for this tool but meybe you thinking about native flashtool for Linux systems?
[Sony Cross-Device General] Androxyde:
True if and only if you install kernel out of flashtool or not the same way as flashtool does.

I will explain how to package kernels for locked bootloaders that you can install using flashtool without breaking recovery :-)
[Sony Cross-Device General] silveraero:
That's great man lol, or just copy xRecovery.tar to system/xbin/

hi guys,

I have SE Xperia x8, I installed FT 0.4.2 for flashing kernel but after click flash can't identify my phone, in fact it does't want me to connect phone on flash mode, I think v0.402 is incompatible with x8.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Crowds:
now im lost:(

i had to go back to 2.1 because of the new bb 72 that i´ve posted.

i flash 2.3, root and then pluggins and run unlock and just got what´s on img.

is this normal? shouldn´t i see some info?:confused:

cheers
[Sony Cross-Device General] 9Lukas5:
Flashtool gave you the info yet in one of the lines: phone is unlocked yet. Remember, the unlock is permantly, it isn't removed by flashing a stock firmware.

don't know which firmwares you have stored on your pc, but I think you maybe have one of the fxp versions. Simply try to flash the fxp kernel, if that works, enter cwm on fxp kernel and flash fxp rom and check if it boots.

P.S, then you can also try what happens if you flash the 2.0.72 bb on fxp. I mean, do you get singnal yes or no, and if yes, can you send/recieve sms?
