Entire thread about rooting, STICKIED in the General X10 forum: SuperOneClick.
From 2.1-update 1 and above, use SuperOneClick: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=906248
Next time.. SEARCH!
Please search in future as this is a very common question and has undoubtedly been answered. However, an alternative to z4root would be SuperOneClick

3. If yes for question 2 will there be root for ICS the first day ICS will arrive?
4. My last question can someone give me a link for a good tutorial to root my xperia s..?
Thanks all

yes for now the only way to root is to install the custom img using the fastboot which required the unlocking once you give it imei to sony the the only option to get the ICS will be via the flashtool

If you don't really understand what rooting your phone means then I would suggest that you don't really have a need to do it.
If you want to know how to unlock your bootloader and root your XS then read the relevant stickies in the Dev Forum, they explain everything in detail, you just have to spend the time to read them.

Not working methods i test it for xperia 4.1.b.0.587.
Did you read the entire post? If not, do so, because there is a description of how to perform a downgrade there. After a downgrade you won't get any problems rooting your phone, will you?
Which is kinda funny - I don't even have my mini pro yet, it'll come tomorrow or in two day's time, yet I have already read the important information about firmawares, rooting, unlocking bootloader and kernel flashing method for a device I'm about to acquire. Simple as that, you only need to read it through
In my rooting guide (which is sticked) you can find a link on how to root your firmware version :good:

Oh please read my rooting guide, you just downgrade the kernel, root and upgrade the kernel again.
ICS on xperia is unrootable if you don't use the downgrade-upgrade method or you flash a rootable kernel or you unlock bootloader and flash a prerooted kernel. These are the only 3 methods!
And please read the sticked posts, they would help you much :good:
I think ud b better off not rooting if you can't follow the steps in the guide...

Hey buddy, I will tell you How to root Xperia 2011 devices ( In this case Xperia Mini Pro )
Here are the steps you need to know to root Xperia Mini Pro.

2)Click on Security option
3)Mark Unknown sources
4)Go back to Settings menu
5)Tap on Developer options
6)Tap to mark USB debugging
7)Go back to Settings menu
8)Click on your phone’s model.
9)Choose Connectivity
10)Tap USB connection mode option
11)Choose MSC mode
12)Download the appropriate kernel in order to flash your phone’s system.
13)Run a flashing software
14)Restart your device.
15)Close the flash tool before you begin the process.
16)Download an appropriate program to perform the process on your desktop.

Unlock root doesn't work with the latest firmwares. The link mentioned by me above does the job perfectly.

Hi all,
I've tried every method in xda forum to root my xperia P lt22i without success.
It mounts ICS Build Number 6.1.1.B.1.54, locked bootloader, kernel 3.0.8+, usb debugging mode on, third part software allowed, back up and restore already installed.
When i try to flash the .559 kernel, flashtool returns me an error during flash, but I don't understand bacause i've installed all the drivers included in the package. When I click the root button it runs good till the end, but after the rebooting no sign of superuser app.
When I try to run the runme.bat of Binary's app (every version of it), it runs smoothly to the end and it returns to me that the phone has been rooted, but there's no trace of the superuser app after the rebooting.
Is it probable that I could have an unrootable phone?
Thanks in advance for your advices and answers,
Stevuna.

Because I don't have permission to wirte there, I have to make 10 posts.
Chances of getting a helpful reply here are low, maybe first make ten posts and then post there. Remember not to spam. Btw I think you can post on Q/A section without 10 posts (I can't remember)
