So today I found that a new update is available for my phone... But my phone is rooted and has changed SystemUI.apk for notification widgets and it uses AdBlocker... so my questions are: are there any major improvements and bug fixes and is it worth it? (because I've heard that 4.0.2.A.0.62 firmware can be rooted only with flashing older kernel using the stock ROM). And how do I update it?
I will be thankful for any replies.

Download 0.62 ftf file.Move it to firmware folder in Flash tool.Flash button,flashmode.Select the 0.62 fw.Untick wipe user data,wipe cache.Tick Exclude system,exclude baseband.And flashing will only flash kernel I guess
But 0.62 fw with 0.283 kernel is the best battery saver out there

Can I update from 0.42 rooted neo mt15i (changed systemui.apk) into 0.62 directly from pc companion? (don't care if it will loose root)

But your current systemui.apk will be replaced with original

Thanks for the heads-up. If I'd go with the update I will lose my status widgets in the pull-down menu and I don't want that. I should probably wait for the ics release then.

Thank you for the info!
I am on .42 too and will try the flashtool update method.

Update availabe for Xperia Neo- Build 4.0.2.A.0.62

Hi guys,
I Just want to inform you that yesterday I updated my Xperia neo and got 2.3.4 build 4.0.2.A.0.62.
Does anybody know what are changes since previous build?
Using 4.0.2.A.0.62 I can not root using DooMLoRD_v3_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su,
So becareful, you may need to wait until some solution for rooting is found.
Is It Available For Neo V Too ... Cant Find In My Region.. Will Wait Till There Is Any Solution For Rooting
Which region are you in?
Screenshot of about phone?

I have rooted 4.0.2.A.0.62.
First I flashed InteksV15 kernel. After I used DooMLoRD_v3_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su.
it's working
But after it will be running on Inteks kernel. You may need to extract original one from 4.0.2.A.0.62
and reflash it.

I have my neo rooted with locked bootloader and 0.42 firmware.
If I upgrade to 0.62 ,I supposed it won't be rooted any more.
Right?
Any way to root it again with locked bootloader?

I can get the update, but I have an unlocked bootloader so I used flashtool. But I had a conversation with @SonyEricssonNL, and it turned out I have a scandinavian SI number.
I think you can just use flashtool to flash the ftf, also non-rooted.

[ROM][XPERIA SOLA] 6.0.B.3.184 Central Europe

Can't say much more about the ROM than what's already in the title, I grabbed it from i-don't-quite-remember-where (but not from warez type sites) since I couldn't update with PCC 'cause of unlocked bootloader. Checked it and it's the real deal, got it flashed and running on my Sola. FTF packaged neatly in a RAR.

EDIT:
Yes the rom came from Irontech so all credits and thanks go to him for publishing it (i only remembered it was him who released it on forum when rohit gave the link), but i think its place is here where it won't be lost in waves of threads like on general.
File Size: 242.95MB ,will give it a try.

The Rom is quite good, I also flashed it.

Check in the Update Centre, and if it is available, simply download and update your device. And no need to flash too!– I updated my phone this way today and it is completely safe. Hope that helps, mate

If I remember right you can't root manually yet. You have to flash a kernel with auto root etc.
If anyone knows otherwise please share!
