[Q]Xperia P unlock now or wait? - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

I have a stock xperia P which I plan to run custom kernel and ROM like krabappel2548's KA, with the final target of custom ICS ROM.
The question is does it matter if i unlock now and goes custom GB kernel and ROM, or I wait and get official Sony ICS, then move to custom ICS?
My concern is will custom GB kernel and ROM made getting to ICS difficult and riskier?
Personally I think it doesn't matter, but it is better to ask.

No, it won't be any harder. You will just need to flash an FTW when it's out.

[Q] Stock 2.1 rom with dsp and Ultra Brightness

Is it possible to add dsp and Ultra Brightness to stock 2.1 rom?
Sorry but dsp cannot be added to the stock 2.1 rom, as for ultra brightness i dont know for sure but i think that its also not possible.
The stock sony ericsson rom is very limited and its not very nice once you've tried using friends who have the xperia mini pro(sk17i), gingerbread rom is much easier to use and more organized than eclair rom
Or maybe if you are willing than you can try out custom roms such as GingerDX, Flame.GDX ICS, FroyoBread, MiniCM7Pro, Sony Style, etc.
If you wanna get more crazy than you can check out MiniCM7, PrimeHD, FireDroid 2.1, etc
P.S.-If you dont know about rooting, flashing roms, bootloader, custom kernel etc than you better get started on studying it and sorry i cnt find a proper link to the guide for all this and i gotta go somewhere so i'm in a bit of a hurry
I have MiniCM7-2.2.0 because i need these two things but i prefer to have original rom with timescape with every launcher i want, better camera, better battery FOR ME etc.
unfortunately if it is not possible i will stay with a custom rom

ROMS For Xperia S, Suggestions.

KA11Xperia Speed Doesn't work on my device and neither does the kernel so don't suggest these
Also can you suggest some kernels that won't put my device into a boot loop
here's the thing seems you dont want ka11 why dont u use ka10.2 they say its more stable, and then install advanced ics stock kernel or xsx kernel,so u wont get bootloop,
theres also the stable version of cm9 its out now,
you should try different roms so that you can tell whats fits for you,
theres also mooded version and miui rom available, just go ahead and try it all, and choose which fits you best
goodluck.

[Q] Xperia Ray-Flashing kernal

Hi friends,
I am pretty new to this forum and before a couple of days i did a research regarding Flashing Kernals and Roms(Dont knw whether my concepts regarding that is right or wrong) and currently i have installed Cyanogen 9.1 for my device.Now let me ask a couple of questions i have for you guys.
1.Will I be able to update my phone and bring back to old ICS firmware via SUS once i brick my phone(I have already unlocked the bootloader via fastboot method)?
2.Evrytime when i flash the Rom(say CM9) i used to flash kernal(boot.img) for the respective rom.Is this necessary all the time?
Will i able to flash a GB rom on ICS kernal(I am afraid to give it a test)?
3.Regarding CM9.1 which i have installed ryt now,I am satisfied with the performance,but i want a stable ROM wud make me happy with a better battery life unlike CM9.1.So could you pls suggest me a GB/ICS ROM which wud have a stable performance with descent battery life.
4.After using GB for a long time,i was very much addicted with the Phone pad kinda keyboard,but when ICS came into picture everything vanished,Smartkeyboard Pro is no gud,Touchpal is conjusted,i want the exact GB keyboard in ICS.Any ideas?!!
Regards

Xperia Ray - Switching from JB back to ICS ROM

Hi all,
I have been trying out some JB based ROMs for the last month or so and I have decided to go back to ICS based ROMs but whenever I install a ROM, the phone keeping looping.
Now, I have tried 3 different ROMs and kernels, it doesn't make any difference.
BTW, flashing the stock 587.ftf via flashtool works but I want to install a custom ROM.
Help will be appreciated. Thanks
Anyone?
Make sure you got ICS kernel and ICS ROM.
