Hey! I'm a happy owner of an OEM Sony Xperia Z1 Compact, and I would like to unlock the bootloader to unleash the full power of this little monster.
Since my device is a OEM, I was aware I could do it via the developers page of Sony Xperia (http://developer.sonymobile.com/unlockbootloader/).
Well I did everything according to the guide (I already had a google nexus 7 and an xperia x8, so I know the drill). But when it reach to install the fastboot driver (supplied by the sony mobile developers page), I connect the phone with the up volume button pressed (the led turns blue). Then when I go to the device manager and try to update the s1 fastboot driver I simply says that the file may be corrupted and it doesn't install.
I tried on different usb ports, different computers, different cables, so far nothing worked... Any suggestion???
kind Regards
