You have to re-do the rescue backdoor this is a must then try again.
but thats something you do "Before" you update your tablet from 3.2.1.r2
but you said your on ICS already so its possible that you dont have a root-able kernel for now.

Hum...

The All in One tool can't do anything for you if you've lost root.
You must wait for a kernel or tablet S exploit able to gain root under Sony's ICS...

[Q] 新泄漏的欧版4.04怎么root呢?
在itfunz和gfan都看到了新泄漏的4.04欧版的,但是大家都被关在了纳粹集中营,这下怎么解决呢,有会汉语的中国人或者日本人韩国人抑或是菲律宾人新加坡人马来西亚人能回答一下吗
好像沒有方法直接root, 要先在2.3 root, 再使用OTA rootkeeper, 升到4.0.4後restore root
Translation:
It seems there is no way to directly root 4.0.4 now, you have to root it in 2.3 and use OTA rootkeeper to restore root after you flashed 4.0.4
Sent from my XT910 using XDA
For right now, this is correct, but 4.0.4 has been directly rooted successfully as of yesterday by djrbliss.
I expect we will see a new exploit released very soon!

[Q] New Sony Tablet S - can I root it?

Hi everyone!
I was trying to ask this in the Dev forum, but aparently my post count doesn't allow me to do so...
I just bought a Sony Tablet S (Wifi 16 GB version), and it comes with Android 3.1 and Kernel 2.6.36.3, so my question is if I can/should root it before I update it to ICS? Is the root process safe and easy to do, and does it void the warranty?
Thanks for your help...
yes - you need to root it before you upgrade - then upgrade using AiO tool by Condi.. here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1515720

Great, thanks for your help! I see from that link that the root can be undone, but can this also be done after the ICS update? I will try to root my Tablet S with the stock Android 3.1 and after I want to update it to the oficial ICS...
Putente,
if you upgrade to official ICS, you will not be able to root, till now.
awn
you will probably have to upgrade to 3.2.1 first, because most of 3.1 versions couldnt be rooted. BUT BE CAREFUL! - do not use OTA update if it comes with ICS because its not rootable and you cant go back..
First you should get URL of 3.2.1 of your region - check one of HC URLS thread,
flash 3.2.1, root, download ICS and use AiO to preroot it, then flash custom ICS with root.
thats all
br
condi
Well, this is starting to get a bit confusing for me, as I'm a noob. I thought that this root process would be easier. I'll do a bit more reading about this subject before I make any decisions...
I got another question...
I have an update notice on my tablet and it says something about a system update version 1.10 and Android 3.2. Is this the (in)famous kernel build #10, or can I safely perform this update before I use condi's AIO tool for root and ICS update?
Thanks.
If you get 3.2 update, you'll probably receive kernel #10 but that update will be soon followed by 3.2.1 with kernel #5, #6 or #8 (or even another one, depending on your region) rootable by Condi's tool.
Then you can be proposed to download another 3.2.1, don't accept as it will be kernel #10.
You may be able to keep root after 4.0.3 update using Condi's tool if you come from a rooted 3.2.1. If not, you won't be able to gain root because there's actually no exploit for stock ICS.
So be carefull!

So you have 3.2 kernel 10?
Then you can install this for Portugal 'WIFI only'.
3.2.1R2 Wifi Only SGPT111PT/S SGPT112PT/S
http://info.update.sony.net/ST003/nbx03_011/contents/0008/signed-nbx03_011-ota-0042.002.zip
This is 3.2.1r2 install, not sure what kernel but should be rootable, I helped someone from Sweden using the same file and they were able to root tablet.
Copy to SD card
To install go into recovery (turn off tab, then hold vol + and tap power button, tablet will boot and then go into recovery, then you can let go of vol button) and select file off SD card.
Then run condi's AIO and select root, it will tell you if it can be rooted or not.....
If that works and you would like to ICS then use the program to preroot the following:
4.0.3 Wifi Only SGPT111PT/S SGPT112PT/S
http://info.update.sony.net/ST003/nbx03_011/contents/0009/signed-nbx03_011-ota-120410025.zip
Oh and Portugal / Netherlands /Norway /Sweden are the same file
GOOD LUCK

@stifilz can't this be flashed after updating to official ICS?
or even any way downgrading to HC without root?
Damn this is my first device I have for this long time without root :-/

Not unless some sort of backdoor was created, ie incremental decrease. So pretty much for the time being no... but dw I am in the same boat... there will be some way, some day.

Since we cannot decrease from the tablet then why don't we just increase it in the flashable pacakage?
I don't visit here much but I read somewhere that flashable firmware must be greater than the installed one, then why not just change the build.prop in the to higher that 4.0.3 and it will get accepted right?
or is this already tried?
if this succeeds then we can make HC's build.prop to 4.0.4 n flash it and then root it and flash to ICS with add root support.
Just a suggestion.
This may help http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1887447
Although I personally havnt got it working myself, it does appears others have.

Although we can sign it. We do not have keys or method to fully sign it. Because the bootloader is locked it has to be a signed file from Sony.... With the exception of condi's AIO tool which bypasses the check. For this you need root! But now we can root ICS anyway and apply semi custom roms i.e root and lower incremental

Do you have the Android Composite ADB Interface and Sony Tablet S drivers installed in your computer's Microsoft Windows OS and does your computer recognize your tablet is connected to it?
Well thanks for all your help I got everithing working I got to flash the updated firmware... now I came across another issue when I try to use the mods and hacks menue on AIO. I get the red screen saying that my divice needs root. Any idea what could have wrong?

Most likely what is wrong is your tablet is not rooted.

Okay, so you have tested your tablet and you believe it has root access. Now tell me what exactly are you attempting to do when the AiO tool tells you your tablet needs root access?
Im trying to enable the write permissions to sd, and now when ever i do a selection of any option on the AIO options non of them work and before i did the update to (release1 a) i had access to everything in the menu
super SAD i just used a root checker and i have lost my root access ... please some please tell me there is something i can do to fix this and have access once again.. can i downgrade or work away around this ?
- i had 4.0.3 and flashed to 4.0.3 r1a from the link given in the firmware link given in the AIO thread .....

4.0.3 R1A

Unfortunately, you have lost root access and currently there are no methods available for you to regain root access. Your mistake was flashing your tablet using the OTA update file as-is instead of using Condi's AiO tool to pre-root the OTA update file before flashing your tablet.
ah well that really sucks..... and from what i have been reading there is no way of downgrading is there ?

Unfortunately again, that is correct. Like I said, currently there are no methods (including downgrading) available for you to regain root access.
I got japan wifi+3g SonyTabletS with 3.2, and updated to 4.0.3r1a. Recently, some japanese succeed to root "4.0.3r1a", I tried it and I'v got root!
I'm not sure if other language device were able to be rooted, but you might try the method.

Hi, I'm also trying to decypher the translation Google came out with. As far as I understand the author says that he proceeded the same way as with Tablet P. Yupandra2012 can you give us a short walk through how you proceeded?
hi,
i was able to access /data but the VpnFaker.apk digest seems invalid to my Tablet S (4.0.3r1a US firmware)
the logcat shows the following message
W/PackageParser( 163): java.lang.SecurityException: META-INF/MANIFEST.MF has invalid digest for AndroidManifest.xml in /data/app/VpnFaker.apk

The auther said included "VpnFaker.apk" had adjusted certification of original "VpnDialogs.apk" in /system/app/ in Japan ver.
So I guess you must match VpnFaker.apk's certification to your oliginal "VpnDialogs.apk", but it's required rooted device.
hi Yupandra2012,
I can get the /system/app/VpnDialogs.apk without rooted, can you ask the author to re-pack the VpnFaker.apk for us? Thanks!

[XP][Locked BL] *Working* Root for JB?

HI!!
Anybody can confirm any ROOT package reliably working on JellyBean?
I am to try Bin4Ry's Root with Restore BUT this never did work reliably even on ICS. I always had to rollback kernel to old version before applying, and since JB has not yet flashable ftf file I think this won't work.
Use the search button next time.

Cheers, ill try that
I can't do that, reason being is that when i type in the number to see if bootloader is unlockable it says no, is there any other way that could unlock it, or just install the rom?
sorry to hijack the thread - im a little way ahead - bootloader unlock - but cant get a root hack to work....i did follow one that said to download a .js file - but in the readme it says to run a "runme.bat" file which doesnt exist....so, im stuck as well - mines a 2011 version with mtp - i did try the flashtool but it looks like that only works with pre mtp devices....
Just to add - ive found the thread for rooting. download the file with the runme.bat in there. Ran that as admin and it all gives the appearance of working, reboots the phone - command prompt says everything has worked but theres no superuser icon installed so i guess it hasnt.

There is alot of threads! It's really easy and it can work for locked downloader! There is a sticky on the forum for it where you can get the firmware needed.
Just download the ICS. B.54 ftf
And the C.1.0 Ftf once flashed the B.54
Flash the C.0.1 and root the reflash the B.54 but only the firmware and don't do the wipes! There is a more explaind method on the sticky
