Guys,
Can the xperia S be rooted via flashtool as as the xperia x10?
am on ICS 4.0.4
thanks
Can you please read the over 20+ existing threads on rooting the S and flashtool?

As I know, it isn't hard to port a ROM to another device, since I did it on my Tablet about a year ago.
I just copyed the things I liked from system\app to system\app. And didn't touch the camera app.
Unfortunately, things changed since than. Sony is using a .ftf format and the ROM is stored in sys and bin files (maybe it already was back than - i just forgot about it).
So my question is, how to port a ROM, for example the AOSP from Google to a Xperia device? Is it even possible? Is it harder than it was earlier (or did I just have very much luck back than?)

And it's not a MOD/ROM/etc, not a accesoire and not a theme/app!

There is ongoing progress on porting CM9 to the Xperia P (which I assume is the device you're interested in). No GSM yet, so kinda useless, but we're getting there. There is a CWM based recovery, too, so flashable zips will be fine.
Thread moved to Q & A section, kindly post in the relevant section next time, you've been warned.
Are you kidding me? This is Xperia S Q&A
AND MY QUESTION IS NOT ABOUT THE XPERIA S!

Hi all
I have a sony ericsson xperia ray with Gingerbread flashed. When i try to turn on the wireless it freezes and wherever i touch on the screen it is not responding. I unlocked bootloader, rooted and installed CWM and after i flashed a new rom and a new kernel (doomlord and Ray onium) the problem still exists..
Any help?
Thanks
