i am using a xperia pro. i am thinking to root my phone. will i be able to get official updates from sony ericsson after doing so?
Solved! Go to Solution.
you can still get OTA updates if you root your phone, but only if you don't unlock the bootloader, in other words, if you unlock your bootloader you won't be able to update your phone, not even with PCC or SEUS
yes , you should get the updates even after rooting...
but wait for other user to confirm this.. 
You won't recieve OTA updates if you unlock the bootloader using SE's tool but I believe you will if you are just looking to gain root for a few apps from the market.
That is correct, as long as you don't unlock the bootloader you will receive OTA udpates
this is how to root

how do i know if the bootloader is unlocked?
quite easy, run either PCC or SEUS if it says that it can not recognize your phone bc you have a modified software then that means the bootloader has been unlocked
i dont have a pc. is there any other way
yes there is

it just says
bootloader unlock allowed . yes
what could this mean. is it unlocked??
It means you haven't got an unlocked bootloader so if you root you will still get OTA updates.
