I looked in sony forum here and they say you have to relock bootloader (but flash stock kernel first and I don't know where you can get the stock kernel to download) to update via pc companion or update service
So just look around for the untweaked stock kernel or make a new thread where you are searching for it

download the ftf file of the stock rom and using this thread to extract ftf files you can get kernel.sin which can be flashed.
Am I right?

I don't know exactly.
But if it's like this, you needn't extract it. Just open flashtool and click on the flash -> flashmode -> and there you can exclude all files like system etc and just kernel is unmarked, so it will flash only the kernel...

Just flash stock kernel again, then download stock firmware and flash it via Flashtool

flash ftf on Flashtool
confusion as a simple thing to download your official Stock ROM file in ftf format. After applying via FlashTool in modol FlashBoot only that. Kernel Standard ja is automatically installed and all its default settings.
: Rir:

People, people...why post when you don't know what you're talking about??. The reason stock ftf gets flashed is because it already contains stock kernel!! duh!
About unlocked bl, you only need to relock it if you plan on updating through pcseus, which isn't vital since you can flash any firmware from downloaded ftf, aside from that there are no other pros or cons to unlocked bl

now its all done, just updated wit pc companion, worked well. but now i need to root my device to use titanium backup.
is the latest version of android are possible to root?

Flash any rooted kernel, people have reported extended and mesa to be working fine. (if bootloader is unlocked)
Otherwise this method is also reported to be working. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26914104#post26914104

grazie

Download official stock firmware from Sony site and flash it via flashtool.. Now to relock bootloader. Google the query and you'll get the solution easily...

You need to relock bl, if u used the test point method then u need to start S1 Tool and click Restore button, but if u used the official method, u will need to flash this with flash tool: http://www.mediafire.com/?1ytip94lm2yojjl and then u will be able to update with SE PC

custom software, no SE update

I am trying to use the official SE updater but it says that I have custom software installed that can not be updated, I have flashed official rom and rooted... how can I go back to official updates?
Flash with Wotanserver. You will lose all your data though.
Try flashtool update. Give us more details - BL locked/unlocked, ROM - generic/custom, stock/CM/MiUi. No info, how to help?

[MINIPRO] How to update to ICS?

Since its 24, only days away from the awaited ICS update. I am ver confused on how to revert back to stock rom/kernel and relocking bootloader. And with those problems I cannot use SEUS and PCC, so what do I need to do?
Flash stock rom then kernel then relock bootloader? Then update to ICS?
Is that the right arrangement? Or did I missed anything?
And how about the baseband?
Im really confused.
Please help and links to where I can download those things
Thank YOU!
Install stock firmware from a complete .ftf file, it includes proper baseband, kernel etc.
To download and install it, read my tutorial, link in signature.
Go to a local service shop and upload the stock rom withe setool service software.

How about stock kernel? can i relock bootloader with a different kernel?
No you cannot lock bootloader with custom kernel. I suggest to make ur phone as good as new to prepare for the update

as far i knw, the ftf files already include the kernel. full wipe > flash ftf through flashtool > relock bootloader, YOU'RE DONE!

Flashing back to stock ftf files in locked bootloader?

Is it possible to flash back to stock ftf files in locked bootloader? I want to go from Fera rom marvell v22 x10i to stock rom x10a. Somehow it changed when I went from stock to Fera.

Yes, you would have to use the Flashtool and flash the locked bootloader ftf file. I don't know exactly where you can find it but search Google for it and im sure you'll find it somewhere. After that you can use the Sony PC companion to get you back to stock. At least, that's what I would do.
Do I have to exclude anything in Flashtool when flashing the stock ftf (my bootloader is locked)?

I dont think you need to flash anything since your bootloader is already locked. I was assuming you had an unlocked bootloader. All you need to do now is just use the PC companion.
So PC companion will help me return back to stock?

If he has unlocked bootloader he can't fix his device via pc companion.
Which device uses? Are you sure he installed a cwm for the device he uses?
Please post here the link of the cwm he used and the device he uses.

Are you sure you installed a cwm based on the firmware you use? Which firmware are you using? Which rom? ics? gb? jb?

Try flashing stock Rom again.
Download an ics ftf file from development section here and flash it via flashtool. I recommend you the .54. Root it and when you're done let me know.

Since you are on unblocked bootloader flash this kernel if you want, it's a great one. Prerooted, with integrated cwm recovery and there is an overclocked version too. here is the link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2299748
Read carefully the instruction on how to install this kernel. Note that you have to install one of this version of firmware: 6.1.1.B.1.54. You can find this version here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2028139
Enjoy!

For sure, you can flash with SUS or PC Companion, BL must be locked.

Currently I have a custom Kernel and Rom.
So if I relock my BL I can download and flash the stock rom and kernel with SUS or PCC?
Do these apps even recognize my phone without the original kernel?

Yes they'll flash relocked BL, in SUS you select the type of phone you have, I don't know for sure what will happen with custom rom because my BL is unlocked but I have relocked and repaired with PCC before.

Doesn't work.
Both SUS and PCC tell me that the software on my phone has been modified.
Edit: ok, I think I got it. Relocked the bootloader first with flashtool.
