few days ago I rooted my neo v with " "andorid emulator" hack/trick" everything went fine with no problems at all...
deleted some bloatware, facebook.... timescape... the phone runs much faster now. ics 4.0.3
I have a few questions now:
will neo v update itself when I connect him on pc compagnion when new version comes out?
when I connect him on pc, pc compagnion recognize my phone as neo (mt15) not neo v (mt11). is that a problem?
can I install fresh official ics 4.0.4? I'm on locked bootloader.
Can I "repair" my phone with pc compagnion? If I can will my neo v stay rooted and will bloatware i uninstalled come back?
tnx for any answer!

1)Yes, you just have to check for updates and click update if available.
2)no. Not a problem
3)yes but only if it is available in your region.
4)yes you can repair. But your phone will get unrooted and all bloatware will come back.

I've unlocked my Neo V and then install/restore using KA ICS ROM through CWM Recovery. After Installation, when i powered up my phone it stocks at SONY opening screen then nothing happened. Can I fix it back to its last state? Even if i restarted the phone to access CWM Recovery but still stuck on SONY Opening screen.
Kindly post also The Firmware/ROM HK Version of ICS Xperia Neo V which is my stock FW
Please help. Thanks!
What about recovering it through the PC Companion, and applying this patch http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21568024&postcount=3
did you tried with another kernel?? some rom's are builded for an specific kernel,
see if in the .zip file you can find the boot.img
Flash the stock ics fw file via flashtool,you can find the link for stock ics fw in neo v dev section.For how to use flashtool guide link check my sig
Use flashtool and flash ICS firmware. I also got stuck at "The Alliance" logo.
Thanks for the help! I've already recover my Neo V!
Hi everybody,
This is my first post on xda.
I have an xperia neo 2.3.4 that i updated to ICS but the camera didn't work so i downgraded it to 2.3.4 and now the battery stay at 0 and i can't charge it.
I read a lot of posts about the way to fix my battery,but it doesn't work:
I'm not allowed to unlock bootloader and i can use my phone only with plugged charger for more than 15 days.
I tried a dozen of ways to fix it but no way.
Pleaaaaase Heeeelp.
Thanks.
Buy a new one

@OP: you would be the first one which got that, in written scenario..
Usually people got that when they downgraded from 2.3.4 to 2.3.2.
Show me the file you used to downgrade.
If you really got old 0% bug here is the solution: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1312398
But its still hard to believe to me that you got that bug since you are not first one who downgraded to 2.3.4.
Problem is if you actually downgraded to 2.3.2..by mistake..
Hi, everybody.. for about a week ago, i rooted my XPERIA arc S (4.0.3) and it went flawlessly when i used the doom's rooting toolkit...So now i have made a factory reset on my phone to update to officiall android 4.0.4-.... So MY question is the following: Will [ROOT] Rooting Toolkit for Xperia 2011 ICS [FW:.562]{LOCKED & UNLOCKED BOOTLOADERS} work for 4.0.4 also?
Thanks :=)
Think it would still be rooted do you have the SU icon... just tr giving root permission for app..
Well since i have made a factory reset.. the root is no longer there.. and i also made the reset just so i could update to 4.0.4 to then later on root my New 4.0.4...
Hello all. Sorry to have posted in the Neo area but i couldnt find any section for Sony Ericsson Xperia PRO MK16.
I updated my Xperia PRO via WIFI from 2.3.4 and it completed but theres no change at all. In "about" in settings it says Android Version 2.3.4 but in the end baseband says 4.0.2 (or maybe 4.0.4). And even the apps stopped working, requiring update as happens after update but the phone is still using GB and still says Sony Ericsson on restart rather than Sony. Even by looking for updates, the update centre says your phone is up to date but not a single thing changed!
I updated my Xperia neo via the PC companion and its updated to 4.0.4 flawlessly. And on the restart, Sony Ericsson became Sony etc It had asked me to press the back and home button together on restart (i dont know what for but i wasnt asked to do it via WIFI update).
Somebody please help!

Hello
I'm used to the flashing and all that for the Samsung devices (galaxy s series) but I'm confused when it comes to the Xperia series. This is my wifes phone that I want to update since it's on it's knees.
From what I've read there are ways to improve the storage space since that is a problem for her, constantly running out of space.
I've been reading up on some custom roms but perhaps stock ICS is good enough with that storage improvment.
So can I download the latest ICS and flash it with the "flashtool" or perhaps there are some nice guide out there that will help me out.
Will the root carry on with the update?
Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo MT15i
Android version: 2.3.4
Version: 4.0.2.A.0.42
Bootloader unlocked: Yes
no root wont carry with this update
and i can see your wife's phone is running GB
in my own taste and experience
i suggest not to move to ICS
you're gonna feel more lags cuz it's heavier than GB
first of all unlock the bootloader (search the forum)
now you can flash custom kernels (using flashtool) around the forum that are much better than stock ones (not all kernels work with all roms)
its time to use custom roms
again
in my own taste and experience
GB: codename 9.3 (now on it)
ICS: ice cream pureness
were the best
Jelly sandwich good also man^^
Look in stickies in dev section
Everything is there
seNt froM My bustEr Neo v <3
Once again I would suggest I-Scream for ICS (The test version)... It feels as smooth as GB.. And battery is quite good, unexpectedly..!!

Hi there, I was as lost as you and had a few problems with my device http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1980047
What I would recomend is using Sony Ericsson Update Service and update to GB .62 to clear any problems. Then just flash following this guide:

Hey I read you thread and that's more or less the same situation, thanks for replying.
I unlocked the bootloader earlier so in the service info/configuration it says "Bootloader unlocked: Yes"
I will check out your thread and go that way then. Thank you
