Hello!
How cai i unlock xperia E4 bootloader? The device is not listed among the suported devices in the developers SONY site.

Do i have to wait untill the device is on the list?

If Unlocking the device´s bootloader isn´t possible yet, are there any risks by removing the bloatware off the device (Root privileges of course)? A soft brick or someting?

Thanks for your replies!

Check the XDA forum, and look for a safe list of apps and services that can be removed . keep in mind that unlocking the bootloader will void the warranty and the DRM keys will be gone forever, not to mention that you won't get any future updates as long as the update its unlocked, certainapps and features will no longer work even if you relock the bootloader, like the Xreality, the camera won't be as good, etc.

Thanks! I was kind of aware what unlocking a device might be, not entirely aware though, so thanks, i´ll keep that in mind. And i´ll search the XDA forums for the apps i can safely remove.
Regards!
