(if you are on ics 4.0.4,then flash ics 4.0.3 kernel root it and flash back ics 4.0.4 kernel)

are you on stock GB or Stock ICS ?

tnx...but my phone has android 2.3.4 build 62...

Then just flash or hotboot kernel with cwm, boot into cwm and flash superuser.zip , google for zip or go to my thread in general section, on how to root 4.0.4.

The error is probably with the rom and not with the kernel, because with the stock rom works perfectly...
After flashing this kernel my neo v gets rooted on .62 stock ROM ....
but will this rooted ROM work if i change the kernel to something else like nightelf stock kernel .... ???
or have anyone tested it yet ???
let me know ....

Root privileges are integrated in this kernel.So you will not stay rooted almost for sure, if you flash another kernel which is not prerooted...

You will be able to update normally to ICS using PC companion, but to be ablolutely sure, you better relock your bootloader before the update...
@bbooff: few days ago I flashed ICS beta from sony page, and I used your kernel for hot boot just so I can install zip with superuser stuff.
Today I flashed stock .62fw, and wanted to hot boot with your kernel, but no luck, I needed to flash it in order to boot into CWM.
You got any idea why id did cooperate on ICS and not on clean .62
Also I couldn't do factory reset while I was using your kernel. I guess that is kinda normal as it's not stock kernel, but still I thought it should work

I have no idea!
The opposite is what should had happened.
I think that if you reinstall 0.62 (using flashtool and not wotan) and then my kernel, everything will be o.k.
If you install a custom kernel, you can do a factory reset through the cwm menu.

Actually I did used flashtool.
After I flash your kernel I can enter cwm. problem is if I try hot boot it.
and about factory reset, I know we can do it via recovery, but is it normal that we can't do it from phone?

What exactly do you mean by "hot boot"?

fastboot boot boot.img
it allows you to boot with kernel without flashing it.
your kernel is very good.... simple and easy... helped me restore my phone back...
But now i am facing one more problem...
whenever I try to install any other kernel through fastboot, that kernel does not work; instead your kernel starts booting up...
Can you please throw some light on it?
Thnx

[ROOT][LOCKED][FTF]Neo/Neo V OFFICIAL 4.0.4 ICS

1. First download 4.0.3 kernel. (Neo V officially but will work on Neo)
2. Open flashtool 7.0 or newer version and flash just the kernel: untick wipe data/cache and tick exclude system/baseband and no final verification check.
3. Root with DooMLoRD's one click method shown here.
4. Optional: install CWM.
5. Now reflash 4.0.4 kernel using flashtool like shown above.
If you somehow do not have 4.0.4 firmware or if you are not on ICS but you want to update to, follow this guide from where you can download 4.0.3 and 4.0.4 ftf.
is it also applicable on Neo MT15i ? ? ?

this thread is for 4.0.4 android version but you may try the same steps on your device just with flashing .42 kernel, rooting with zergrush v4 method NOT this one and then reflashing .62 just be sure that nothing bad can happen to your phone if you flash just the kernel

I'm not sure what you want to say. If you are asking about updating to ICS, rooting the phone is optional. Here is how you can update to ICS.
I must have ICS 4.0.4, for I can from 2.3.4.¿?
Sorry muy bad bad bad ... english.

you must be on 4.0.4 but I posted a link in the previous posts how to update to 4.0.4 if it is still not available in your country.
Is The Kernel Updated To 3.0.x in ICS 4.0.4
Works!!!
I confirm that this works.
From 4.0.4 (4.1.B.0.431) then flashed the kernel (4.1.A.0.562) and followed the doomlords guide and back to (4.1.B.0.431).
Phone (Xperia NEO) rooted =) locked BL thanks man.
Ok I'm a noob. Where the hell is the thank button
ok i need to post first to see the thank button.
Works great.
I've bootlooped my phone several times before, with the other tuts, but this works great.
Works here, locked bootloader.

lol and how do you expect to have 4.0.4 if you don't want to download the whole rom?
you wanted to ask for a 4.0.3 kernel?
if yes, get it from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26798415&postcount=141
I meant,i am already on ics 4.0.4.
to root it,i need to flash first the kernel of 4.0.3 and then 4.0.4.
so,download link for 4.0.4 kernel?

[Q] Android 4.0

Hi, i have a Xperia Neo with a 2.3.4 rom. It looks like sony have released the android 4.0 for its devices.
Does the Xperia Neo have this option, it's official? What are the advantages of 4.0 over 2.3.4?
And are all 2.3.4 apps and games compatible with 4.0?
Thanks!
Were you in coma or something? :/

Hahahaa..... Coma!!!!!. :-D
Actually android 4.0.4 is released now. More functions than older android. But it consumes more RAM,
Everything is compatible with this version,

Probably u were in outer space wen all this happened...
There have been 2 updates of ics.. 4.0.3 and 4.0.4..
Ofcrs official... and We have Got alll of the seciest.. Custom roms on ics..!
Man it's sad ur in the gb world..!
WAKE UP..!!! Do a google and u will get all benefits of ics..!!
Enjoy the device..!
actually, i was so happy with my 2.3.4 that i didn't looked up for an update. But since 4.04 is all good i think i'll try it. I read that some HD games doesn't work so well in this update is it true??
And is necessary to change my kernel too?
Thanks for the answers
Yes, 4.0.4 being the latest

I flashed the official 4.0.4 with an old flashtool (x10, can't install the new one) and now i'm stuck because it isn't rooted, and i can't enter cwm recovery mode to install a custom rooted rom.
How can i enable recovery mode?

Hi,
If your phone works , you can use these Guides for Rooting, ... etc :
Rooting ICS 4.0.4 (both Locked & Unlocked Bootloaders) :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1678690
Installing CWM with Locked Bootloader :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1364509
if your phone doesn't work properly (Reboot Loop , ...etc) , Download SUS & Repair your phone (you probably get ICS 4.0.4) and then use the guides for rooting ,...etc:
SUS (Sony Update Service ) : http://www.sonymobile.com/gb/tools/update-service/
Good Luck!
The phone works. The problem is that i can't open falshtool...
So i need root to flash CWM and i need CWM to flash a rooted rom.
The link you posted requires CWM, right? How can i get CWM without root and without flashtool?

I don't think you could have CWM without root. The Link that i post , needs working Flashtool to root and after that you can install CWM.
Guys ...if u r in unlocked boot loader just install a custom kernel like night elf which have root and cwm within it...then u can install any custom rom .....I used this trick many times ...they it.....use fast boot to install kernel ..
