:smileygrin: This is regular way of flashing (just like updating via PCC or SUS)... Basically even Sony use the same flashtool (some stuff are removed Dizzy_Face ) as official sony tool for flashing. The firmwire is used & tested by many (even me)... Only thing that can go wrong is if you don't have installed drivers :smileygrin: or you/your pc fault Dizzy_Face

Even if so, if against all odds you manage to brick your phone, you can repair it easily via PC Companion. So, there is nothing to worry about.

And yes, DO A SETTINGS RESET after flashing... Never forget that Slightly_smiling_Face

Waiting for results...

I was trying to sim-unlock a xperia u this week and I discover that I NEVER WILL BUY A SONY XPERIA SMARTPHONE. I usually root and then simunlocked the most smartphones...Samsung, Htc, LG, Huaweei...but, the sony smartphones are special. You must first simunlocked the phone to root it. So, you must pay to your operator to root your phone. I know that you don´t want to root the phone, but to sim unlocked the most smartphones first is needed to root the phone.

Search a web company to sim unlock your phone...or pay to your operator for the unlock code. Is the only way I have found.

PD: Sorry for my english.

Im not in UK you get it? And i cant go to Tree.co.uk (3) and take the code to unlock my phone. That TUtorial is about how unlock my botloader not about how can i unlock my SIM. But TY anyway.

Have you tried to contact the network operator to get the unlock code? They should be able to provide it to you. If you have ended your previous subscription or agreement.
