I am on ICS 4.0.4 build 6.1.A.0.452 on my xperia S.
Rooting guide for 4.0.4(locked bootloader) is available by doomlord...But one of the requirement says phone to be in USB Msc connection mode. my question is ,everyone says to select MSC mode in settings-xperia-connectivity.
But its not there in my phone!!simply no option at all!!
there is an option of mount usb in settings-storge,but that is always grayed out
wether connected or not

haha, never seen any option in this regardless of MTP only. Going to Themes & apps thread and you'll see a thread " Sdcard mounter for ics "

Yes ,actually doomlord posted a tool for getting USB mass transfer mode when we(xperia s)were in Gingerbread.But people say ICS already have it!!I dont see it anywhere in settings.

see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1744878
but actually you need root access to install that app & on other hand you need Msc mode enabled to "root" stock ICS!!
So what should be done?
I want to root it

Hey, no need msc mode enabled to root. What you need is install cwm & install su.zip in cwm

I'm new here. I am now also searching how to root my xperia neo with ics in mtp mode. It seems to me that you also need root to install cwm.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Thanks

I want root Xperia Sk17a with the last firmware, but when using the flashtool I have the following error:
16/020/2012 15:20:37 - INFO - Device connected with USB debugging off
16/020/2012 15:20:37 - INFO - For 2011 devices line, be sure you are not in MTP mode
but... USB debugging off and MTP is ON!
If no solution to this, I saw that when you unlock the bootloader could be done as root, but as you unlock then? ..
Thanks!
You probably have .062 firmware
first of all your english is realy hard to understand,
all i understand is you saying that USB debugging is off and MTP is on,
if yes, then you are doing it wrong, turn on USB debugging and disable MTP mode,
go to settings-sony ericsson-connectiivity-USB connection mode and choose MSC mode, go back and uncheck 'auto connection in 'MSC', then enable USB debugging and connect

Sorry, I have a bad English. But you understand very well.
Just try it, but does not work
16/036/2012 15:36:20 - INFO - Device connected with USB debugging off
16/036/2012 15:36:20 - INFO - For 2011 devices line, be sure you are not in MTP mode
If you can not make it work, I would like a guide to unlock the bootloader.
Again, sorry for my English, I'm using google translator in a few words xD
Thanks for the replies!
Edit: I'm reflashing the phone with Wotan to get the previous firmware.
.62 firmwares cant be rooted.

try doomlord's easy rooting kit, google it, you will find it
I used Superoneclick. Most convenient way of rooting. No matter locked or unlocked bootloader *applies only to fw below .62.

I would recommend manually installing the Sony Pc Companion from here http://www.sonymobile.com/us/tools/pc-companion/ making sure to install the drivers it provides for your device. Make sure your phone is plugged into your computer, also make sure USB mass storage is disabled, and that under the settings application then the developer options section that USB debugging is enabled.

I have Sony Xperia U and I have trouble connecting it to PC. Here's how it goes.
When I first connected Sony Xperia U to PC by usb cable, it opened up a dialog (on phone) asking me to install pc companion. First I clicked no and tried to do it without pc companion. Then a "Driver Installation Software" window popped up on my pc saying it's installing driver called "MTP USB Device" but it failed (red cross). My pc didn't show any other signs of detecting phone except trying to install drivers and the sound (that quick beep when you connect a device).
Now I tried clicking "install pc companion" but it doesn't do anything. It doesn't install anything at all.
When I open up device manager, there is a yellow triangle next to "MTP USB Device" but when I tried right clicking to update it said that it is up to date.
Any idea what could be wrong or what else could I try? There is nothing wrong with USB cable because it works on every other device.
Its the error Xp U users wil get with GB based roms but ICS i think no such

But I need to connect the phone to pc via USB cable to do that. Which I can't.
for flashing u need to connect device in flash mode so device gets detected no pblm in dat.............
ur device nt showing up in GB bcz of an mtp driver error
Download the drivers for xperia u from sony developer site..it will work definitely..or install the drivers from flashtool
if u dont want to do anything other than accessing storage, you can try an app named Sdmounter. this app will change the default mtp mode to mass storage mod.
(root is needed)
