Not sure where to place this thread, considering that there's just a xperia S questions forum and not for the U.
Back to subject I'd like to ask some questions:
how can i debrand the xperia U?
How to root it?
I'm asking this cause i've been unable to locate any other thread about it, and any help would be helpful.
thanks

did you read what i post? seriously I don't like ppl who always say "use the search forum", if a person can't find something it's bcause the search criterias are different from the ones stored on the database.
Well i dont know about debranding but rooting can only be done with unlocked bootloader and custom kernel.
You will be able to find tutorial thru search

You seem to have one disaster after another! Why don't you - sorry, your friend - just use the phone and stay stock. It is very good as is. You are not experienced enough to do any of this.
I realise you only learn by trying, but there is a limit... you may be on a one-way road to Bricksville

i can't update my unit via pc companion because is unlocked, so i need to re-lock now i know ajehe
sir thank you
Your Phone is rooted :S
You have a rooted phone, done through offcial sony bootloader unlock website, because of this sony knows, ur imei and thus if you will try to install official updates from companion, it will show you a error, and so i suggest you to download the latest 4.0.3 from other sources and flash it on ur phone using CWM!

He wasn't rude, he was just trying to tell that you didn't give as much info as it was needed.
About your problem, download flashtool and download .ftf (I suggest Nordic region) and flash it. Everything can be found in dev sections, or in sticky thread in general section.

Flash it with correct firmware, get the fw's from sticky thread in general section.
btw. edit thread title to reflect your problem, as current one is so generic that it can be used on 90% threads here

Why are you sending PM's, we have forum, there are smarter people here and will solve your problem faster if more of us discuss about it.
First you said that you have problems with keyboard, then you said you followed this instructions: http://theunlockr.com/2012/10/08/how-to-root-the-sony-ericsson-xperia-neo-mt15i/
On those instructions I only see how to root your phone, which includes flashing MT11i kernel.
Now hear this. If you said all this info before, you would get your solution by now.
Flashing MT11i kernel on MT15i gives that error. And I would have told you that if you gave all the info you have. And no need to go around the web for instructions, everything you need is here, if you had checked this (sticky) thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1678690 you would noticed that flashing only kernel cause errors.
For start flash your phone with correct fw, to solve your initial question, then go on next exhibitions
And please use forum, it will be faster
nah sorry for all the issues and problems im done forget this thread please and delete my account im not doing this.time for a new phone.peace

Is this thing rootable?
If it is rootable is there any Guide to root it? ( if possible please a link? )

There's a whole forum for your phone there. If you have time, do some reading. There are lots of cool things to do. If you plan on modding your phone more than just rooting it, you should get familiar with how to use the Flash Tool. There's a Sticky in the Development forum for your phone about it.
