Since yesterday I Updated my neo to ICS with 4.1.B.0.431 frimeware and rooted with the method of DooMLoRD
But I miss some access as uninstalling sytem applications or change file permission on the system partition.
But such access existed when I was on .62 frimeware
I do not know what I have done wrong, I followed the procedure step by step
Can someone help me with this ?
You didn't root it
You didn't read properly that doomlord toolkit is showing you
Check this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1678690
I have done it step by step, with your files, and the doomlord toolkit, I have retried to root a lot of time, but nothing change.
The toolkit arrive to copy the files, I have SU app and binary, I have busybox, but no root acces.

If you are un build .431, I think you can just do the root step
You need flashtool for this : Link

Try reinstalling the Drivers included with Flashtool.. might Fix the Problem
go to flashtool drives and install fastboot drivers
are you flashing the img from fastboot folder?

Don´t forget to unable unknown sources and USB debug.
If don´t work try to change USB connection on your phone from MTP to MSC or vice-versa.

I'm really new for rooting and I found a tutorial on how to root neo v easily and it said to root it after turning off my phone.(the blue led notification).so how to change usb mode?
To get blue LED, switch off your phone, remove any cable. Press and hold the Menu button and insert the cable while holding the Menu button.
I suppose, for Flashtool method, you need the green LED. Do the same while holding the back button.
EDIT: I am sorry, you need the blue LED only

.62 Is not root-able u might need to Downgrade to .42 or Upgrade to .562 (ICS) version if u want to root Easily,,

It depends on what firmware you will put in your mobile. One thing you can do, just go to the search at the top right. search how to root your mobile. it's very easy to search it.
Good luck!

If you are trying to update to .62 via the Sony PC Companion or OTA update using your phone, it will fail as the bootloader is unlocked and there is no update support for those with unlocked bootloader.

Hey buddy, since you've got your phone rooted, why don't you try out some awesome ROMs for your phone? They are quite simple to install and Neo V has quite a few modders . I'm not a big fan of Sony's stock ROM with all their bloatware anyway
Have fun
I need some help with rooting my Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo (MT15i).
I have unlocked my bootloader following the official method. And now I want to root my device but somehow I can't get it done.
I've tried several methods icluding DoomLoRD. But nothing works.
Can somebody explain to me what i need to do?
Is there a way to make a complete backup of my device without having root? before I try rooting?

I also had some problems with unlocking the bootloader (on windows 7 64bit) at first, but after i turned of my antivirus everything worked just fine.
Even I have windows 7 64bit and I don't think there's any issue whatsoever!

Please dnt mind my questions m very new here, the link to ur 1st question refers to a page of sony where its says:
"How To Root 4.0.3
Just follow the instructions here Root
now this link goes to a thread, that says do it with doom lord: which is a pain !
should i go for the flashtool process instead, but that mentions the FW 4.0.4, where as i have the stock 4.0.3 ?
Plz Help !
Flashtool can't root ics fw's.
And if doomlord's toolkit is hard for you, then don't mess with your phone at all
How can it be hard, you set 2,3options and connect phone to pc, toolkit does all the job..

For start chill your horses.
I have eyes and I can read, so no need to copy/paste what has been written in this thread.
Second, I know why doomlord's root toolkit failed for OP. doomlords toolkit CAN root .562(also known as 4..0.3) but CAN'T root .431(4.0.4) fw, which is what flashing .562 kernel is needed in order to root.
I know the procedure, I wrote the tutorial(which I linked in post#4), after which guys from talk.sonymobile wrote it on their forum, just FYI.

If you are on 4.0.3, doomlord CAN root your phone, if it can't, you are doing something wrong, in which case, we need to see log of that root process.
Flashtool is only used to flash 4.0.3 kernel, but that's for people on 4.0.4.

He failed with doomlord root toolkit because he had 4.0.4! He needed to flash kernel from 4.0.3, then use toolkit then flash back kernel from 4.0.4

if doomlord's root toolkit FOR ICS, failed for you, provide log of that process.
Now I tell you another thing, which you would know if you read all post in this thread, specially link I gave above, you have unlocked your bootloader, ffs, you can root without any mess with root toolkits, simply flash/hotboot kernel with CWM and flash superuser zip. And enjoy your phone.
Tutorial on talk.sonymobile doesn't have part for unlocked bootloaders, that's why I linked my tutorial which have both parts.
He failed with doomlord root toolkit because he had 4.0.4! He needed to flash kernel from 4.0.3, then use toolkit then flash back kernel from 4.0.4
if doomlord's root toolkit FOR ICS, failed for you, provide log of that process.
U are rite 4.0.3 is workable in doomslord but only on this doomslord toolkit for xperia "DooMLoRD_v1_Xperia-2011-ICS-ROOT-emu-busybox-su"
it has pushed the SU properly nd installed it ! later i have downloaded CWM 5, so i 1st took Astro File Manager from the Market, for exploring the SD then installed the CWM 5, so when i did the SU asked to get the permission nd then all the options in CWM are ticked well and Su got CWM in its list, so all good and rooted, now please refer me the app that can solve the brightness issue in Neo V :good:
Thanx & Regards
now that i have rooted & all ! how will i go to fw .431 means 4.0.4 ? and if i flash 4.04 will my phone still be rooted ?
If u know a process of how to root in 4.0.4 nd can install su in it plz tell ! nd plz clarify me that CWM is necessary to have it 1st installed on the device or SU ?
Lets suppose ill clear the picture ... if i want to flash 4.0.4 with Kernal .431 my phone is open to root, but as u know the doomlords kit failed ! is there any otherway to push SU as a zip like ur mentioning that flash it with hotboot wats that how the process is going to be ?
Plz help !

if its not .54 fw then you should be able to root it easily, check to see if you are doing all the steps right, or you can search for more information on the forum about rooting the firmware you have, there is enough information in the forum if you search for it to root any xperia u running any FW.
Okay, so i have been attempting to root my xperia u since about december, i cannot root it, ive tried one click root for xperia u, it said it worked but as soon as i tried to install a rom with rom manager it said no root access, i have tried a few other 'one click apps' they all say they work yet i can't do anything as i could on root, i have had a rooted galaxy ace, so i can if its rooted or not (well i think so)
I do not have unlocked bootloader, i dont know how to unlock it
It would be well appreciated if someone could tell me how to root and or unlock bootloader, or just tell me and alternate way to install the galaxy s3 jb rom

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
