My rooting status is no when i open the dialer and enter *#*#7378423#*#* to access the service menu and go to Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status. I have checked xda about this before but to no success

there's nothing you can do here, you will have to contact your carrier and make a request, I know Movistar in Brazil or Chile allowed users to change this, by taking their phones to a Sony repair center, remember that Sony can not do it (contract/legal issues) it's up to the carrier
