Hej Sailors.

(english below)

Ich möchte mein Sony Xperia 10 OEM-entsperren um zukünftig SFOS zu installieren. Aber die Option ist ausgegraut. Ich vermute, es wird eine Internetverbindung benötigt und ich muss einige URLs in meiner Firewall freigeben. Kann das jemand bestätigen? Und falls ja, welche URLs sind das? Woran könnte es anderfalls liegen? Besten Dank im Voraus.

I like to OEM-unlock my Sony Xperia 10 to install SFOS. But the option is greyed out. I assume I have to open some urls in my firewall. Can anybody confirm this? And if so, which urls does the Xperia 10 need to activate the OEM-unlock option? Are there any other ideas where to look for unlocking? Many thanks in advance.

P.S.:

I did check the phone if unlocking is possible. I also tried to connect to Linux: fastboot is accessible but no unlocking. Also I checked using an USB2 cable but this didnt fix it. Maybe it is Linux that may cause problems!?

sudo fastboot oem unlock 0x123456789...0 is not your exact commant you type, right?:)

@coderus: well, the number was different - I took the one from sony :-)

Although using Mac OSX elicits upon I3113

iMac:Sailfish_OS-Jolla-3.3.0.16-i3113-0.0.4.6 adrian$ sudo fastboot oem unlock 0x7CA81F0C0*******

Password: OKAY [ 1.279s] Finished. Total time: 1.279s iMac:Sailfish_OS-Jolla-3.3.0.16-i3113-0.0.4.6 adrian$

Certainly don't need inserted sim-card or sd-card.

First, check whether it is possible to unlock the phone at all.

You can check if it is possible to unlock the boot loader of your device in the service menu by following the steps below:

1.) In your device, open the dialer and enter *#*#7378423#*#* to access the service menu.

2.) Tap Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status. If Bootloader unlock allowed says Yes, then you can continue with the next step. If it says No, or if the status is missing, your device cannot be unlocked.

Thanks for your fast answer. I did check if unlocking is possible. I also tried to connect to Linux: fastboot is accessible but no unlocking. Meanwhile I have read that Linux may cause problems. So I will try windows 7 tomorrow.

@M.Bln. When you try to install it with Windows, make sure the necessary drivers are installed correctly (should be all mentioned in the Jolla / Sony instructions). Often flashing via Windows fails because of wrong/missing drivers.

@M.Bln. If it keeps failing, please send the output from the command

sudo fastboot getvar all

The output is the same in linux as well as in windows. Also the failure message is the same in both os:

Does anybody know if unlocking may need an inserted sim-card or sd-card? Everything (else) is still in factory-release state.

Many thanks in advance.

@M.Bln: Even if the Android setting "OEM unlock" is greyed out, try to use the slider and enable it (i.e., slide to the right). I faintly remember having seen this work, despite the greyed-out switch.

I have the same problem. But in the Developer menu, the slider is blue and activated. When I ckeck the status (open the dialer and enter ##7378423## to access the service menu) the unlock allow: is "no".

Will an update help? Currently Android 9 in the build Nr. 53.0.A.14.47 is installed. An large (700MB) updated is offered over the air

can I downgrade from Adroid 10 to 9, if the next update is an Adroid upgrade?

Can I use EMMA to install another release?

It looks as 700MB offering is Android 10 53.1.A.2.2 and you would need to utilise Newflasher after installing Androxyde Flashtool to downgrade:link text Currently only if you have Xperia !0 Dual Sim is there an appropriate .fsc file in database to utilise Flashtool.
