I can't find it.. can you tell me how to root sk17i 4.0.4 .. ??
You need to downgrade to GB and then use local.prop method. There is a tutorial on the Dev section

Unlock your bootloader and you can find a very easy TUT in the dev section. I rooted my device with it. Good luck

Xperia Mini Pro SK17i Update mystery
Xperia Mini Pro SK17i update is mystery, i update my Xperia Mini Pro to 4.0.4 ICS and i experienced certain inconsistencies, after searching for hours it found that i should repair my update and after that do factory default, i did that and it made my phone much better. Now everything is fine accept one think that making me hate my phone, it's battery backup which is very ugly. It hardly goes one day in mostly standby mode.
If anyone else like me is frustrated with only battery issue or know how to fix it than please reply...

hi guys,
I am quite a noob, and trying to figure this xperia thing, after at last I managed to nicely root and flash my htc.
But it seems on xperia it is all working different. What I need, is generally to delete bloatware, to do so I need root.
But to get root I need to flash a ROM first? In htc it's rooting so that you can flash roms. It all gets me confused.
Is there a way then to root without any weird downgroading/flashing roms?

If you are on gingerbread you can root it on older Firmware than .62/.69, otherwise you must downgrade and upgrade again. Just Check out my signature

If you want to remove bloatware apps it's easier to remove them from the zip package before you flash the rom.
Open the the rom using 7zip or similar program (open archive NOT extract it).
Then go into the system folder and there is an app folder (system/app).
The app folder contains pretty much most the app's that are on your rom.
Just go through them and delete the app's you don't want, there are plenty of lists around of safe apps to delete/remove, there are some on here and if you google you will find more.

I have an Xperia S with ICS installed
I was wondering if flashing the 4.0.3 kernel from the Lt18 (pretty sure that firmware has rooting abilities)
onto the Xperia S
then Root
then Flash the Xperia S kernel back could possibly work?
I was going to give it a try earlier today but thought it would be best to ask if they're is any risk of perma-bricking the phone and unable to reflash before I did
Are you for real??

You cant, on locked bootloader.
You can flash an Lt18 kernel on a Lt15 with flashtools maybe it might work
I'll give it a try
I'm sure I can flash back if it doesn't
well I hope so
Hi, try putting the phone in a jar of soil. After a few years it might get rooted without having to use the search function.
Cheers.

If you can't understand what's written on here, have a look on youtube and you'll find some video guides to follow. It should make things easier for you.

i have try to watch at you tube before, but i can't do oso =.=
I'm guessing that rooting isn't your best option then to be honest. But if you are determined to root your device, then your best option is to wait until you are better able to understand what the guides say.
That's the best I can for you, unfortunately.

Hi All
Just recently bought a walkman z and rooted it with a tablet s root tool, i know that both devices kinda use the same stock rom and maybe the BL was wondering if its possible to use other tablet s tools/rom/recovery with the walkman z
^^ I Know It Sounds Like A Stupid Question But I Havnt Been Able To Find Anything In Terms Of Custom Roms Other Than The Root Tool That Originated From The Tablet S.
Any Ideas/Help With This Would Me Much Appreciated (Due To Being A Flashaholic On My X10 )

Apparently bootloader is not cracked so you can't do anything to your Sony s besides root it

If you read the OP's post, he doesn't have a Sony Tablet S. He has a Walkman Z. Different device.
adammann93 since this is a Tablet S forum, we might need a little more info. As cslingerland said, do you know if your bootloader is unlocked at all? Some of the XPERIA devices can be unlocked either through custom methods or unlock tools. If your bootloader is locked (like the Tablet S is) there is not a lot more you can do in terms of development. You can perform all the usual root-requiring functions, but thats about it.
