What next for HARDLOCKED Xperia S

Stuck with a hardlocked Xperia S. Just like many others, the codes I bought online didnt work as I was out of unlock chances (the phone is now hardlocked). Bootloader is set to "NO".
Question is What next? Has no one comeup with a solution to this? Is it right to assume everyone with this problem has their phone stored away?

You need to contact the network carrier your phone's locked to. Only they will provide you with valid code to unlock your phone;

  • What next for the n97?

    I finally got my Orange update to v20 in UK today!
    All seems OK so far, although accuweather doesn't work? I like the new features tho!
    Has anybody noticed any new issues?
    My main question is what is next for the n97? Any more firmware releases likely?

    hopefully skype with proper integration into the phones contacts
    an improved version of facebook 
    perhaps some improvements to the UI like not auto-rotating when receiving a call or during a call.
    definitely more stability fixes

  • What next for java?

    Hi this is a generic question, just for a discussion. However I was thinking, what will come next for java? What would developers want to see in java?
    I do not know if this question has been asked before, however it would be intresting to know what other people expect to see in java in the future.
    In the last version of j2se we found out new elements like generics, enum, or like the following which I do not know the name of:
    public void doSomething(String... strings){
         for(String s: strings){
              System.out.print(s);
    }So now I was windering what you people expect to see next in Java? Do you people think java can still continue to evolve, etc
    regards,
    sim085

    The reason of this post os not to explain me what those things are (I did not relaize I placed two new elements there from the J2se 5.0 ... the cool thing is the varargs ... notice the three dots in the parameter section of thre method) :)
    However my post is there to see what other people want to see in Java next :) Thanks for the answer however :D

  • Have an iPod mini what next for my G4

    Hello, My wonderful used G4 audio digital is a really nice computer and I enjoy learning more about it. Now I have a hand me down iPod mini. OK I charged it up using the USB on my Gateway PC. So when I plug the iPod mini into the Gateway USB the good ole 'do not disconnect appears in the mini's window. When I plug it into the G4 either my audio digital or Quicksilver the iPod mini window will light up and I can scroll through the controls. I did download a manual for the mini. What would i need or what could i download to get my mini to play through the G4? Of course tranfer sounds to my mini from the G4?
    What do I use to get the mini to play into a PC too.
    Next; can I take my mini and just stick it into any computer like a USB storage device too?
    Plus it needs head phones. Chances are I can find head phones for it most anywhere and can I play the mini direct to power speakers?
    The learning goes on

    To make it do tricks on a Mac or a PC you would need to have iTunes on the Mac or PC. There are separate forums for numerous versions of iTunes, where folks with expertise in the use of iTunes are eager to help you.
    You may need a third-party program to load stuff FROM the ipod TO the Mac or PC. Apple's model assumes your Master Library is on a Mac or PC and that the iPod holds temporary copies to be played. It is not intended to do easy uploads.
    One limiting factor is that many versions of iTunes have specific requirements for which version of Mac OS X must be running. Only a few very old iPods are supported by the version of iTunes that will run under OS 9. If you are running Mac OS X 10.4, you can run the latest iTunes.
    Yes, that output is a headphones output, suitable for any standard headphones or earbuds \[in-ear headphones without the headband], powered speakers, or the iPod input jack in many newer cars.

  • Whats next for the ipod.

    like the ipod movie.

    Well the smart things Apple did was introduce one thing to the iPod at a time. 1st it was plain black and white, then it was a newer more battery life iPod w/ more space, then it upgraded it went to a Thinner iPod with Color and pictures, then our new Video capeable iPod w/ pictures, so I think next is a camera built iPod w/ video making capeablilites

  • TS4062 Home Mac running iOS 10.5.8. I can not sync new iPad 4th gen. I'm told I need iTunes 10.7,but I can not download the new soft ware. Unable to up grade soft ware for my Mac because its telling me its already up to date. What next for me to do?..than

    Can't photo stream from iMac 10.5.8. To new iPad 4th G. Can't seem to upgrade iTunes software . What can I do?.. Thanks John.

    Buy Snow Leopard upgrade:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    See if the iTunes update is available with software update, get it from downloads (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1576), or otherwise find the link to 10.7 in the "how do I downgrade from iTunes 11" threads. Most of them link to non-Apple sites carrying previous software versions like itunes 10.7.

  • HT201263 Unable to update, restore or recover. Slider doesn't slide and number pad doesn't work for passcode. What next? Worked last night . Battery charged. When I push Home button I get my backgroung but can't slide slider. Device is recognized by iTune

    Unable to update, restore or recover. Slider doesn't slide and number pad doesn't work for passcode. What next? Worked last night . Battery charged. When I push Home button I get my backgroung but can't slide slider. Device is recognized by iTunes.Help! Thank you.

    Besweet, I'm having the very same problem with 60GB colour which was bought new and worked for 6 months before suddenly just not being recognised by PC. I hadn't changed anything at all.
    I've followed all troubleshooting advice and reinstalled and updated iTunes and iPod updater software but all troubleshooting routes seem to hit the dead end of either the need to access the iPod via the PC (which isn't possible as it's not showing up at all) or the iPod in disc mode stuck at "ok to disconnect".
    It's still under 1yr warranty so will have to take to a dealer.
    I'm sorry that's not much help for you but at least you know it's not a unique problem.

  • Since yesterday all my usual .xls files will not open (Office for Mac 2011). Can open .xlxs files. Default 'open with' is Microsoft Excel.app. No software updates done. Have repaired disc permissions. What next?

    Since yesterday all my usual .xls files will not open (Office for Mac 2011). CAN open .xlxs files. Default 'open with' is Microsoft Excel.app. No software updates done yesterday or the day before (or maybe a Silverlight or an Acrobat one by accident?). Have repaired disc permissions. HHD name is still same as it always was. What next? Thanks
    PS I'm not a great techie so assume I don't know what you're talking about!

    You may need to rebuild permissions on your user account. To do this,boot to your Recovery partition (holding down the Command and R keys while booting) and open Terminal from the Utilities menu. In Terminal, type:  ‘resetpassword’ (without the ’s), hit return, and select the admin user. You are not going to reset your password. Click on the icon for your Macs hard drive at the top. From the drop down below it select the user account which is having issues. At the bottom of the window, you'll see an area labeled Restore Home Directory Permissions and ACLs. Click the reset button there. The process takes a few minutes. When complete, restart.

  • HT1212 Hi I've tried restoring the iPod as per above howevere it continues to ask for a password. What next?

    I've restored the iPod however it continues to ask for a password. What next?

    If your forgot your Restrictions passcode:
    - Restore from a backup that was make before you added the Restrictions passcode. If you restore from a backup made with the Restrictions passcode the Restrictions passcode is also restored.
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - If you are up to file manipulation see:

  • What's the latest firmware version for the Xperia Tablet Z?

    What's the latest firmware version for the Xperia Tablet Z?
    According to the Swedish and British Sony website, the latest version for the Xperia Tablet Z is 10.1.1.A.1.253 released on 17th of May.
    But this is the latest version for the Xperia Z (phone) not the tablet Z... Or am I wrong?
    It's a bit confusing, when the manufacturer cannot keep track of the phone and tablet...
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Depends on if you have the WiF version or the LTE version. For LTE the latest is 10.1.1.A.1.253 and for WiFi it's 10.1.C.0.344.

  • I have gifted an airport extreme to a neighbor and I assumed she would be able to connect and "create a new network" with a new password on her iPhone. That didn't happen. It keeps asking for my password. What next? Thanks!

    Have them perform a complete power recycle of their networking hardware. Please check out the following AirPort User Tip for details. Also, make sure that they perform a "factory default" reset on the AirPort (as described in the tip) to be sure to return the AirPort back to its "out-of-th-box" configuration.

  • In recovery mode it is still asking me for passcode to master reset phone. What next? I am reseting because phone got locked on accident. thanks

    in recovery mode it still wants a passcode to continue. I need a master reset done on phone whats next? Do not know the passcode and phone says disabled
    Thanks

    Hi shawno,
    You need to follow the part of the instructions in this support article that says:
    Note: If iTunes asks you to enter the passcode, try another computer that you have synced with. Otherwise, go to "If you have never synced your device with iTunes, or you do not have access to a computer" section below.
    Here is the support article: iOS: Device Disabled
    Cheers,

  • Here's what worked for me...

    Here's what worked for me:
    1) I opened iTunes and in Options, I selected iTunes as the default music player for my computer (it wasn't). (I even uninstalled RealPlayer and WinAmp.)
    2) I uninstalled iTunes and iPod, and reinstalled using the newer versions on the Apple site.
    3) I basically followed this advice:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=291183&tstart=0
    Which was basically to leave my iPod connected to the computer while rebooting. The first 2 times it didn't work, I forgot to put iTunes in the start menu, so that it opens when I reboot. I put iTunes and iTunes Helper (whatever that is) in the start menu (I used WinPatrol to do so, available for free here: http://www.winpatrol.com/), and then rebooted, and after a couple of tries, like magic iTunes opened, recognized my iPod, and updated it, and then, for the first time, without freezing my system, told me it was okay to disconnect.
    It even worked while still running my regular systray apps, like McAfee VirusScan, Ewido Anti-Malware, Microsoft AntiSpyware Beta, and SpywareBlaster, so those were not the issue. I get the impression you need to boot it once so it recognizes the iPod and does that handshake thing, and hopefully after that it'll always do the same. We'll see...
    I hope this helps someone, b/c its been a frustrating day working through all this, and I know a lot of others are still trying to get it solved. And thanks to jcog for posting his solution, that helped me, and hopefully this will help someone else...

    it worked until the next time I synced the iPod, and then back to the freeze up. Next thing I tried was this Microsoft help page:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93976
    which advises on several things, all of which seem helpful, but the thing still freezes up. I can sync the iPod, then the system freezes and I have to reboot. So, I now believe Apple will have to issue a patch for these bugs when using the new 5G iPods with WinXP.
