Hi everyone
i know i should open this thread in android development but i have to post 10 messages so i open it here
I unlocked my bl on stock gb and rooted it. Then i flashed ics with flashtool. Now i want to root. How can i root again on ics?
pick one or the three ics kernels that are available, they'll have an autorooting feature, flash it trough fastboot with:fastboot flash boot <name of kernel file>

It's easier: use the SEARCH BUTTON!!
just download the specific kernel and put it in ur fastboot folder, then flash it on your phone

Hi..I have unlocked bootloader. I was previously on custom aosp ics based rom (4.0.3). Decided to go back to gingerbread (custom). Flashed night-elf kernel for stock rom v9.0 through fastboot. Installed rom through cwm. Rebooted the system. But it just stucks at the sony logo and reboots and the process goes on and on forever unless i pull out the battery.
Tried reflashing the kernel..no use! When i flash the kernel the phone reboots, the sonyericsson logo appears instead of sony. After that when i try to power on the device it gets stuck in the bootloop with "sony" logo rather than the sonyericsson logo. Help would be greatly appreciated!
Why double post?

ok ... I was earlier unable to boot into CWM (which I had installed via xparts) while the phone was boot looping ... I do not know why ...
I randomly flashed Suave kernel ... it was still boot looping but I was now able to enter CWM (comes with the kernel I guess - DoomLord's Full) ...
I restored an earlier backup I had taken ... and now it's working fine ... http://forum.xda-developers.com/images/icons/icon8.gif

Then you can use flashtool to flash kernel
Open at the directory you have installed flashtool exp( c>flashtool then click driver folder)
Tick your phone, flashmode and fastboot driver
Then you can flash kernel using fastboot mode
(select thunder icon in flashtool then select fastboot then select reboot to fastboot mode (at right) and then select kernel to flash, after everything done you have to select reboot device into system

Ok. Flashed the version 1.
No Bootloops or Anything.
Booted in to recovery by pressing vol down button on sony screen as directed by thebrainkafka. Touch works the same way as in munjeni's kernel.
But the system update notification still persists, says a new firmware 6.1.1.B.1.54 available.
I was running on Stock Indian 6.1.1.B.1.54 with munjeni's kernel v5 prior flashing this.

No it doesnot require unlocked bootloader.
First select the .ftf you want to flash in flashtool.It will start preparing the files.After 10-15 sec,it will ask you to connect your phone in flashmode.
How to enter flashmode:
Power off your phone.
Connect your phone to PC with volume down button pressed.
It will enter into flashmode.

With unlocked bootloader,you can flash custom kernels.These make your phone fast and smooth and can increase battery life.
You can always root your phone with unlocked bootllader.
And the BIGGEST pros of unlocked bootloader is you can flash "Jelly Bean" which is almost fully functional and stable for daily use.

I don't know.I have unlocked bootloader and now I can root any fw without any hassle.You should unlock it too.
You just have to flash custom kernel which has autoroot and you will be rooted.
