just rooted my xperia s last night, was able to unlocked it then i download cm9 and did the fastboot boot.img thing now as i open my phone all i get is the free xperia logo what should i do?
Rooting and flashing always come with user responsibility... (that's why I tend not to do this on new phones with valid warranty)
Try using the search function in the forum first. Or even try to do some basic google search for troubleshooting beforehand.
And BTW we actually have a Q&A section for question and answer.

This, is a question. Guess which section this belongs in? Q&A! That stands for Questions. And. Answers.
ok,sorry. it is possible to change room?
if its gingerbread you dont need to unlock it.. just run clockwork. I have a bell atrix with the 2.3.4 update and i didnt have to unlock but yet i flashed a rom and installed custom recovery.
If that^ isn't it, did you run the faarboot oem unlock command in faatboot yet?

The android XDA app needs a report button.... Could a mod please move this thread to the appropriate Q&A section?
The development section is for development purposes like for developers that create new roms and maintain them. The Q&A area is for question like yours.

Hi everybody, this tread is right for my phone.
I have an Atrix I-TIM branded with Android 2.2.2, no updates expected from TIM, tried this method to unlock it : http://briefmobile.com/how-to-unlock-the-atrix-4g-bootloader, but don't work.
I've root and recovery yet on and need to unlock bootloader to flash CM7 or other Roms.
Thanks for any advice here.

no. this 'tread' is not right for your phone. this 'tread' is in the wrong section. if you have a problem with your phone, do a search and find a similar problem and fix it. once you have exhausted all searches, then you can create a new thread in the Q&A section....
Ok, Iwill do, but mind that this tread isn't closed and you can move it to the right section!
New tread here

that is not true?
to install a custom recovery you need to unlock the bootloader... that is the whole point of unlocking... unless you have some weird atrix...
Guys i wanna root my Xperia S but i have some questions..
So basicly my questions:
1. Will i have problems with root when i want to update to ICS
2. If i update to ICS will root stay or do i have to re-root
3. If yes for question 2 will there be root for ICS the first day ICS will arrive?
4. My last question can someone give me a link for a good tutorial to root my xperia s..?
Thanks all
Sent from my LT26i using xda premium
yes for now the only way to root is to install the custom img using the fastboot which required the unlocking once you give it imei to sony the the only option to get the ICS will be via the flashtool
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1527133
So my xperia interface will change a bit if i do this root?
Sent from my LT26i using xda premium
No change to the interface once you root.
Guys come on be a little more specific, i am new to android i dont know what all these stuff means etc explain me when u say something in good details. What is flashtool. Pleaseee

If you don't really understand what rooting your phone means then I would suggest that you don't really have a need to do it.
If you want to know how to unlock your bootloader and root your XS then read the relevant stickies in the Dev Forum, they explain everything in detail, you just have to spend the time to read them.

Hi
I have an S3 coming tomorrow so decided to check out the forums and get a head start.
I have gotten a little confused, my first android phone was the xperia play which requires me to unlock the bootloader to flash roms and is also reliant on being an unbranded version.
Is this not the case with the S3? I have done alot of reading already but don't quite understand the process.
My phone will be an orange handset, so is it just a case of flashing cwm and then flashing a Rom? I'm also used to using fastboot which I believe isn't compatible with the S3 is that correct?
Sorry if this post is annoying but I need to get things straight in my head as alot of what I'm reading goes straight over my head lol
Thanks for any help

Welcome to samsung. They dont behave like morons by locking bootloaders. If u want to flash a stock rom pc/mobile odin is the tool. For custom roms u just need to get cwm to flash.

Ok guys since i am (forgive me because of this) a toooootal noob of rooting flashing and everything that includes what you guys are doing here (developers) i am asking you for a help.I cannot figure out how to root this phone (Sony Xperia S Lt26i running ICS 4.0.4).Now i believe that i read somewhere (i dont know where i looked on many threads) that is possible just to root your phone,so you don't mess with factory rom (which is exactly i want).So if someone can post here or give me the exact thread where i can see basicly in details (step by step) how to root this phone with all unlocking bootloaders and flashing and everything.If you could do that for me (anyone) i would be so thankful!!!Thanks in advance
BTW I am new here so forgive me for all mistakes i made (if I made)
First of all, is your bootloader locked or unlocked?
Unfortunately noo i saw it right now is there anything i can do!!!???

Hello, I tried rooting my Xperia Arc S today and i totally failed, I'm new to this rooting thing so I searched for a quick and easy guide and found this
youtube.com/watch?v=JtzA3fppllE
I followed the instructions but it does not mention you have to install ClockWorkMod before you flash your cellphone... I just followed the steps the guy indicated and ended up with my cellphone displaying the SONY logo and then changing to the Sony Ericsson Logo over and over again, even if I press the volume up key, press and hold, spam, whatever I do it's the same, I connected it to my computer and it does the very same thing, I know I'm an idiot for not reading other guides or something but now I have no cellphone and I really need to either finish rooting it or reset it to ginger bread, I don't know, I just want my cellphone to work, please tell me there is a solution, Thanks a lot!
Well why dont you try downloading Sony's official flashtool and reflash ics to get rid of the bootloob?
If that doesn't work, flash over the ics firmware using flashtool
The firmware can be found on xda
Sent from my LT18i using xda app-developers app
First, download the Sony update service. There it is easy to follow the steps to get the official Sony ics Firmware.
Then, (if you want to root it) search the xda forum.
but remember to unlock your bootloader! You'll find a lot of tutorials in here. If not, then send a pm
Sorry for my bad english.
