SE Tweaker Tool v3.0.0 -->> xda@faiyyaz This is just a guide for those wanting to unlock their bootloader. -->>Myths about what unlocking bootloader can do 1. Real dual touch for synaptic devices. 2. Higher max CPU overclock frequency. 3. Sim-unlock your phone (allow it to use any carrier) -->>Before I start I must emphasise the fact that meddling with the bootloader is highly dangerous and will result in a hard brick if you don't follow proper instructions.Then, you will have to go and repair your phone by sending it to SE . I am not responsible if your phone dies on you because you didn't follow instructions or you screwed up somehow. -->>Requirements: Rooted phone, Sony Ericsson PC Companion installed in PC, Courage :P -->>Recommended : Disable your antivirus (it might find a "virus" in ADB.exe or s1tool.exe even though there isn't one and might even interfere in bootloader unlocking process) -->>Note: Unlocking the bootloader of your phone will restore the original sim lock of your phone (if you had any) unless if you unlocked with EMMA/IMEI unlock code or it was factory-unlocked or if SE unlocked it! -->>Download and install Flashtool v0.5.3 here (follow instructions on the website): http://androxyde.github.com/Flashtool/ (Credits go to Androxyde and Bin4ry for this tool.) After installing it, open the flashtool folder and open the drivers folder inside that. Double click on the ggsetup-2.2.0.11.exe file inside and install Gordon's Gate before you proceed to unlocking bootloader. Steps: 1)After installing Gordans Gate and the flashtool Turn off your phone. 2)download the attachement and unzip it. 3)run unlockbootloader.exe from it. NOTE:if no flashtool download from the dialog box appeared after running unlockbootloader.exe 4)Turn off ur phone 5)select proceed and run S1tool button to check if the your phone has SIM UNLOCK CERTIFICATE 6) Boot your phone into flash mode (make sure you installed Gordon's Gate). All users, press and hold back button while connecting cable from PC to phone. Continue holding back button until you get some output. The LED on your phone should flash green if it is in flash mode. 7)click on how it should look..it will give u an idea how the output will be 8)click the check box which is right for you[read them carefully] 9)after it proceed to check if the unloaking of bootloader was done by clicking Check If your Bootloader is unlocked And Proceed button 10)Run s1tool. if the line RUNNING S1_EROM FROM VER "#8A02$" has a lowercase "r" letter replacing the "#" (RUNNING S1_EROM FROM VER "r8A02$"), your bootloader has been unlocked . If it has an uppercase "R" replacing the "#" (RUNNING S1_EROM FROM VER "R8A02$"), your bootloader is NOT unlocked .
