[q] firmware help? - Sony Xperia M

Hey guys. I bought an xperia m single sim (c1905) a week ago and rooted as soon as i got it. I wanted more so i tried to unlock the bootloader, but realised that my bl was not unlockable. I read on a few sites online that i can still flash 4.2.2 firmware on my phone. Is this possible with a locked bl? What are the risks involved? If so, is there a download.link for the latest 4.2.2 firmware?
1 more thing, is there any cwm recovery for locked bl?
Thank you guys for your help

Yup you can flash the 4.2.2 firmware of Xperia M Dual.
It wont void your warranty as its stock xperia rom only.
You may re flash SS M firmware whenever needed.
No Hou cant have CWM in a locked Bootloader Device.
You can use flash gordan instead to flash zips.

Thank you so much for your short but informative reply !
I had already said that i installed CWM on locked bootloader (xperia SL LT26ii) !
Now will it be possible to unlock bootloader ?
Or Is it necessary to remove that installed cwm first and unlock the bootloader ?
thanks in advance !

Root for XMD FTF 15.5.A.0.18 LOCKED/UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER

Ok guys once again, we are presented a new firmware for our lovely xperia M dual sim. Rooting should be the first thing on everyone's minds, so i was wondering if anyone has found a way to root this new firmware on locked bootloader and unlocked bootloader.
I hope a solution is found soon, cant wait

For unlocked bootloaders and locked bootloaders we should have a working cwm recovery...

Getting specific firmware for country important?

I was wondering whether it would be okay to flash any other regions firmware onto my phone (xperia m dual C2005). I live in India but can I flash the firmware released for central Europe? If I can, what all things would I have to make do without. Thanks in advance for answering.
Sent from my C2005 using xda app-developers app
Yes you can flash. no need to change any thing before flashing.
Country specific app must differ in ftf (like Sony music jive in Indian ftf)
