Sony, it's not fair! Sony is selling unlocked Z3 starting from today!

While we are locked and afraid of unlocking our bootloaders for decreasing camera quality ( meaning no root ), Sony has started selling unlocked Z3 from today!!
How about us with locked bootloaders? It's not fair!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

On several markets, there are phones that are sold and not locked to an operator. But they may have a customized software which in some case can deny the boot loader from being unlocked. No phones that are sold have an unlocked boot loader from the start, this is something that you need to do on your own.

  • SONY XPERIA Z1C NOT BOOTING SONY/BATTERY LOGO WHEN CHARGED - THATS ALL.

    Hello. I got problem with my "new-used" Z1Compact. I get it 2 days ago.
    Phone is not starting, only bootlooping with sony and battery logo when charger is plugged.  
    There is no reaction for power button.
    When i turned phone ON(plugged to power) i can "make a move" but i can only restart it, with power+vol, im getting 3 vibrations, and phone is restarted. (after restart when im trying vol+ or vol- i dont get nothing)
    At first i thought it was matter of crashed ROM when somone updated, so i get STOCK for EU, and i plug phone to USB( same screen with sony + battery logo) with flashtool, he detects phone in flashboot and flash mode, so ive flashed my phone with D5503_14.4.A.0.108_Central Europe (1280-7864), but with no efect(i wasnt abble to WIPE in flashtool..).  
    Pc companion does not detects him, there is a Windows pip, but program dont recognize Z1C, but if i turn phone in flash mode( with vol-down) he is abble to detect device, like a Sony/Sony Ericsson.
    For Windows i'm SONY ADB Interface Device.(ive installed Flashtool Drivers for all Z phones).
    So i dont know what i can do to fix my sony. Any advise?  
    I'm not a pro in tel-service. Can someone can tell me do why system is not loading ?
     No bootloader? Something wrong with flashing ? No drivers in PC ? When ive briked my sony Z1, i was in same situation, but phone was reacting for power, and i was ablle repir him with PC Companion.

    If it's not switching on without power been connected then you have a battery issue or the connection between battery and board is faulty so you would need to either return your device to the place of purchase or contact Xperia care and have your device inspected http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/support/contact-us/

    I am the only person who uses my Mac and I haven't changed any settings so I can not understand why this is happening now.
    If anyone can help, please do as I miss my reb wijgly anb mi speling is rudish without ip!
    Thanks John

    Hi... I would like to purchase a Tablet Sony Xperia Z 2 10.1 (the last one of the Z series) and I was told that Adobe does not support Sony anymore.... I need to be able to open and read Adobe PDF files and I would like to know if this tablet can still use Flash Player...
    Is there anyo who can help me with this? I asked in the shop and I was told "yes of course" , but when I contacted Sony directly I was advised to check with Adobe as apparently in the recent months Adobe and Sony haven't been getting along anymore...

    You may be mixing up two entirely different Adobe products.
    1. Adobe Flash Player. Needed to view web pages designed with Flash. Not needed to view PDF files. Not available for Android (not just Sony).
    2. Adobe Reader. Reads PDF files. However, the Android can also read most PDF files without needing Adobe Reader.

    I have a Sony radio in my car.   With IOS  4 on my IPhone I could use the docking plug to the usb input on the radio and stream ESPN radio or pandora to the radio.  After upgrading to IOS 5 on the phone the Sony radio will not recognize the phone .  Any thoughts.

    I am reading on this site about the error I am getting and it wants me to change some files that I am not comfortable messing with. Mainly because it is like a foreign language. Will the store do this for me or tell me if it is neccessary?

  • Why are the DNG Thumbnails of my Sony DRC RX100 not shown in the File Finder of my Mac?

    When I first import the original RAWs from my Sony DRC RX100, I can see the thumbnails in the File Finder (so my Mac with OSX 10.9.1. is perfectly fine), but after reworking them with Lightroom and exporting them as DNG files, the pictures are not shown any more as thumbnails in the file finder, but as empty white boxes. The curious thing is that the RAW pictures shooted with my Nikon D5200 do not have any visualization problem after exporting them from Lightroom.  The problem is very disgusting, as I can not search for pictures in the file finder. And Adobe did just close my open request on this issue (case #0180632682) without my consent and without any solution! Who else has got this problem and knows if there is any help to this stupid phenomenon? Does anyone at Adobe take care at all?
    Thanks!

    I think that this is a Lightroom problem because the original Raw files from the camera card are shown as thumbnails in the file finder, but after importing them into Lightroom as dng, retouching them and exporting them with Lightroom, the files are not shown any more. Obviously my sony RX100 camera is not the problem, at least not for my Mac. As Lightroom always needs to work together with a windows PC or a Mac, Adobe should ensure the compatibility of the functions with the host system. I think that is what all consumers logically expect from Lightroom. And a photography SW should be able to show fotos and export visible foto files...
    The very same Dng files from my other camera (a Nikon d5200) do not have this problem at all, although I export them in the very same format as the pics from my Sony, which is not at all an exotic camera. This is very confusing.
    I export dng files because this is the Lightroom own raw format that keeps the original quality of my raws. TIFF files are too large, and jpegs sensibly reduce the quality. So there is no option. I need to stay in Raw. Do I have any other quality options?

  • How can sony claim to not have a comparable replacement for an mp3 player???

    I purchased an 8GB mp3 player about 1.5 months ago with my sony rewards points and it was on sale for ~$52.  The product turned out to be a complete dud so I returned it and was told it would be replaced since it's under warranty.  Now customer service calls to say they don't have a comparable product to replace it with and want to send me a check for $52.  How can Sony claim to not be able to replace an 8GB mp3 player??  Ridiculous.  It's right there on the website.  The product is no longer on sale so I can't go buy a replacement with the $52.  Why is Sony trying to weasel out of replacing the product??

    dug, your case is not being taken care of.

  • WMP will play some mp3 and mkv files to my Sony TV but not others

    Hi,
    Windows Media Player will play some mp3 and mkv files to my Sony Bravia TV (KDL70W850B) but not others. I get the error: “Failed to retrieve media information”. Sometimes if I make a copy of the files that don’t play, I am able to play the copied files.
    I normally right click on files and select ‘Play to’ and then pick my TV from the list. The following is an example of some files (as displayed in Windows Explorer) and which do and don’t play:

    I have stopped and restarted the Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service and the UPnP Device Host Service; I also linked a Windows Live ID but this did not help. All devices have access to my PC and my TV has the latest software.
    I have Windows 7 and WMP 12 and according to my TV specs, the DLNA supported formats are: MPEG1/ MPEG2PS/ MPEG2TS/ AVCHD/ MP4Part10/ MP4Part2/ AVI(XVID)/ AVI(MotionJpeg)/ MOV/ WMV/ MKV/ WEBM/ 3GPP/ MP3/ WMA/ LPCM/ JPEG/ MPO
    I would appreciate any help you can offer.
    Thank you

    It seems to be an issue with Sony Bravia TV. According to the following article:
    Supported File Formats for DLNA® and USB Compatible Sony® TVs
    Under -Not all files are guaranteed to play.
    Sometimes HandBrake
    does help. I shall suggest you to contact Sony Bravia TV support.

  • LR 4.4, camera raw version 7.4 will not display Sony .ARW files

    I have LR 4.4 on my Mac, camera raw 7.4 version.  It can not display sony's ARW files (raw) from my Sony alpha 6000.  Any solutions?L

    Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Adobe DNG Converter 8.8
    Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Macintosh : Adobe DNG Converter 8.8
    It's Lightroom 5.4, but Camera Raw 8.4 that's needed for the camera. You probably know this, but just to clarify, Lightroom does not use the Camera Raw plug-in. So it will require that you use a more current version of Lightroom or the DNG converter. At this point in time it's probably smarter to use the DNG converter if you want Lightroom 6 when it is released. It is anticipated that it will be relatively soon. But who knows what that means? It could be days, or weeks, or months. So I would suggest converting to DNG in the meantime until Lightroom 6 finally surfaces.

  • My sony ereader will not connect to Adobe Digital Editions

    My sony ereader will not connect to Adobe Digital Editions even though my computer is authorized

    When you register your ereader with SONY, you'll need to make sure that the
    Reader Library entries were created on your hard drive for the ereader to
    work properly.  Only some of them are supported by ADE.  There's a list in
    the HELP section of ADE.
    Also, there have been some problems with the PRS-T1 model.
    Hope this helps!

  • LR5 not importing Sony RAW  DSC-RX10 files. Only sees the JPEGs. Any thoughts/fixes?

    LR5 not importing Sony RAW  DSC-RX10 files. Only sees the JPEGs. Any thoughts/fixes?

    The LR 5.3 RC at Adobe Labs lists preliminary support for the RX10, but that usually means the colors will be a bit off, because they are pretending the RX10 is a previous model with a similar sensor.  I would expect better support in the final release of LR 5.3 presumably in a few weeks. 
    You can get started with LR 5.3 RC from http://labs.adobe.com but realize that you’ll probably want to redo your pictures, again, when the final release is available.

    Please read this: Adobe Lightroom - Find moved or missing files and folders
    You do not want to be in the Import section of Lightroom, you want to be in the Library Module. You don't want "Update Folder Location", you want to ctrl-click on a Folder name (not in Import, but in the Library Module Folder Panel) and select "Find Missing Folder"
    You do not want to re-import photos that have already been imported, this is almost always a bad thing to do.
