Don't ask me what this update is about. I have no idea Just providing it for you!

not got my xperia s yet but how do I make a backup of my firmware?
Open SEUS or PCC and then click "repair" firmware. It will reflash your device and download some files called "FILEXXXXXXXX" where the XXXXXXX is a number.
This files are in the folder /db/blobs/yyyyyyyy/ where yyyyyy is a number too.
Copy out the FILE_XXXXXX files to a backup folder. Now go into flashtool -> Advanced -> Decrypt .... Put into the files from your backup and Flashtool will create you a flashable version of your Rom

That was the info i needed thanks for that! it's blobs_fs btw and you find it in ProgramData / Sony Erricson (on Win7 at least)
btw the device selection doesnt show the Sony Xperia S so i choose the xperia arc s, dont know of that causes any trouble?

Strictly speaking you don't need every file in that folder. Sort it into size order, then pick the two biggest files - they should be the ones at the top. One about 160MB and one about 15MB or something. Those are the only two you need to build your bundle.
Will this work if I already re-locked my bootloader? Or do I then have to wait for OTA?
How can i make .ftf files?
i don't have loader.sin after decrypt.
I've downloaded the files from PCC and moved the 3 File XXX files to a new directory but as said above after making a tft i cant flash it because there isnt a loader.sin is it possible you attach the one you are using so that we can use that one?

Once you did all the steps look in the folder \Flashtool\firmwares there will be your firmware you created (FTF File) from the files with loader.sin.
Worked for me look at the attached screenshot.
Correct me if i am wrong, this is my first Sony phone i flash, allways had Motorola.
allready found what's the cause, when you create a bundle you need to choose a device but the xperia s aint on the list, so i choose cancel,, it creates a bundle but without loader.sin, when i chose the arc s it adds loader.sin to the bundle

Yeah thats also a very very important step. I was searching for that for a long time also the first time ;-) You also have to select that when connecting your device to the flashtool for the first time. (not in flashmode and enable USB debugging) then also select Xperia Arc S.
Yeah, altho wont be long before flashtool will be updated with the s included but at least i found out perhaps others can learn from my quest
i have pushed the correct loader to FlashTool repo...
it will be included in next release...
if u want to download it u can find it here:

I'm sure it has something to do with the partition_image.sin, but the UK version posted here doesnt have it. I've checked the tft's posted here and none contain the partition-image, so i removed it from the tft i've made and flashed it and so far no problems, it reboots fine and i need to choose the settings again so it seems fine, ill post it tonight for ppl in holland (after some testing)

I turned debugging on but it gives the same error but the file aint necessary so far i know i've tried the tft file and it works fine without. went from branded, to uk and back to branded no problems!
remove the partition-image from the ftf . it is not flashed well by flashtool at the moment, but it is completely not needed to flash!
Regards
Indeed,
i´ll make a post with the link in it for dutch users as a backup or make a thread where we make a list of those files, i can host them that´s not really a problem

When flashing did you get any errors? And if it wont turn on start with holding volume up and power for 10 seconds thats the same effect as a battery pull

This ftf file that you used, included only kernel and baseband, that's why you didn't notice any difference. You need a full firmware, you can find .42 firmware from my tutorial, link in the signature.

actually if he only flashes kernel, he should be able to root right,?
since the kernel was changed by sony and root was not acquirable(i had read somewhere)
Yes i checked unknown sources... Maybe i need to unlock the bootloader first. Is there an easy way to unlock bootloader? Because i read it and i didn't understand well
I also noticed that when i click help>check drivers in flashtool, it gives this:
28/042/2012 10:42:14 - INFO - List of ADB devices :
28/042/2012 10:42:14 - INFO - - none

Is it a problem? I have android sdk tools and google driver package installed.

and after nothing happens
Did you install the flashtool drivers in flashtool/drivers?
Do you have SE PC companion?
Here's a guide on how to install ADB drivers:
http://theunlockr.com/2009/10/06/how-to-set-up-adb-usb-drivers-for-android-devices/
It's obvious really, but when you click flashmode in flashtool and the firmware selection windoew comes up, don't change anything.
adsp.sin has to be selected under firmware content. I say this because I've seen some people change that. The result would be obvious

yes it is more than 200 mb. I tried to unlock my bootloader today, But i didn't get any message in that procedure. How can i check if i succesfully unlocked or not?
I will say it again.
You need to use a proper ftf file to flash the whole firmware.
Install it exactly the same way as earlier.
Bootloader doesn't have to be unlocked for this.

I think i have a problem with my computer or that flash tool software...
This is what i do:
I click flash icon

I select flashmode
I select full ftf file. But at the right side there is nothing... I click ok
And this is the only result which i get everytime. After i connect my device in flash mode, still nothing is happening...
Seems like downloading issue to me. Tried redownloading?
Yes probably, i am downloading again. Or i will try on another computer, thanks to all for your replies =)
Finally I found the reason. I changed Windows' language and region options to English and USA, and problem is solved. This is why flashtool didn't work on my pc.

Hello,
I tried rooting my phone with the instructions you've provided. They all goes well! But after the last step I start my phone it has all software that are included in the full Kernel... But Superuser app is missing and I cannot open any application that requires root access, they all say Device is not rooted. Any idea what could be going wrong?

Link2SD
Hello,
Does anyone here use Link2SD with their rooted xperia pro's (rooted with this guide
and with this built)? I'm asking because I have this phone and obviously followed
the above guide which worked perfectly btw but I'm getting weird problems with
Link2SD and I wondered if it might be a consequence of the kerneltrick applied here?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Usui218
Hey, if you already had a rooted phone with another kernel version, do you have to do all the rooting procedure again, or do you simply flash the new kernel?
Thanks

If u want ics just upgrade officially. And rrot using kernel trickk...
Sent from my SK17i using Tapatalk 2
You need to flash. 42.. Then root. Then push first file of Xperia root rev.X and then upgrade via flashtool without wiping data. After that push second .bat of Xperia root rev.X and just that
But if you are already stuck into loops then Flash Gb kernel & Rom via flashtool
Sent from my WT19i using xda premium
If that happens it can be because windows is installing drivers, just wait and try again, at least that's how i fix it. If you wanna root ics, flash it and use kernel trick, works on locked bl anyways, it's in general section. Easier, no downgrades, safe
I have rooted my phone without downgrade. ICS 4.0.4 running.

have you tried to flash to the stock rom ics?
if not you should try to flash to stock ics rom, then flash the kernel to install JB JB ROM. of course, make sure the first is successfully flashing the ICS ROM

I will try my best to help you.
The first is done you download ics stock rom ftf file, you can download here
The second did the flashing stock rom ftf the use, and make sure the flashing process smoothly without error.
third when you have successfully installed the stock ics rom, you can flash the kernel specifically for JB ROM. you can get here. do the flashing using fastboot via flashtool. (I suggest using the last kernel update)
fourth, after successfully flash the kernel JB of course now you have cwm installed from the kernel. JB did flash rom through cwm. You can get JB rom file here
thanks to etch04 for kenel and kontini for JB ROM XU
hopefully can help you :good: sorry for my bad english

If yes, should such an error will not appear earlier.
Maybe it helps you flash ICS kernel first. ics kernel you can download here
did flashing the kernel, then you try try again flash the ics rom.
or maybe if you want to use JB ROM, you can use the ROM of Pandemic, at this link
I have been using this ROM, pretty good.
