All custom firmware in the topic header are clones of official firmware collected on the basis of the stock kernel, i.e. they all actually Android 4.2.2 And there is no radical difference between them and the official firmware.
Bootloader unlock (unlock) IMPOSSIBLE, in general, completely!

(Sony does not give such an opportunity (despite the availability of instructions, there are still no people whose phone would write that unlock is possible), and no one has been able to break it yet)
1. Incorrect file permissions.apkin foldersystemand / orbuild.prop sends the phone to bootlup (eternal reboot) !
2. Firmwarerecovery.imgvia MTK Tools with versionS1 boot`a 2.14.J.0.68 guaranteed brick
3. In the case of a bootlap (perpetual reboot)there is no guaranteed recovery method so it’s worth to think again before experimenting. You can try to restore Xperia companion and Flashtool
