If you have unlocked bootloader, then flash a new kernel compatible with stock ICS.
If you have locked bootloader, flash the latest .ftf file using flashtool.
I have updated through pc updater.....
And manil before I updated I had re locked bootloader....n

i flashed Xperia Active (ST17i) firmware 4.0.2.A.0.42_CE.ftf onto my xperia mini (st15i) in flashtool, then flashed stock mini firmware 4.0.2.A.0.62 afterwards

You can't change files in ftf, because ftf is sony signed so this is impossible! So I think you took it from the post I mentioned before!

Reported it, too. Let's see how the mod decides!
officiallysonyrebel as stated this has been shared previously however not in it's own thread so in the spirit of sharing it's fine to post it up however you must give credits to where you found it. It also seems that your guide is not complete as you can't stop at just flashing the active FTF which is a stock Sony file not modified so please don't tell people it is. For it to fully work you need to then flash the stock firmware for the device over the top as per xshanep19's instructions.
To clear everything up please complete your instructions and also link to xshanep19's post to say the instructions are also there but you're just making them available for everyone who might not see that post.
Thanks

srry bro It was not me with this account .. was in tution at that time and my younger just messed up everything sorry again..!! hope u understand..!!:angel:
Btw I don't think that the phone will boot up completely with the active ftf. I think you have to flash the ftf for your device first, before you will get it booting, or am I wrong?

i tried to root my phone
i am having xperia mini pro(sk17i) ICS 4.0.4 with with 4.1.b.0.587
when i try to downgrade that using flashtool it does not come to GB but to ICS 4.0.3
i tried many times but still itz not downgrading to GB..
plzzz help
thankz..
You just flashed the wrong firmware dude,
go search GB firmware,
Re: [Q] not able to downgrade to GB
Try downloading an ftf file with the required version and flashing via flash tool.
There's another way to root your phone, better I think.
Unlock the bootloader.(must be stickied in general forum, if not search Google for Sony xperia bootloader unlocking)
Then download any (try fxp if it's your first) kernel and flash it via fastboot in flash tool . Then boot your device,get into recovery(vol down) and flash cm 7 or 9 or 10 from it.
Easy rooting done and custom firmware installed.:thumbup:
