I do not believe you will find a link for a pre-rooted copy of 4.0.3r5. Even if you did find one, it would not work for you. You must download the 4.0.3r5 file then pre-root and install it yourself by using Condi's ALLinONE tool. There is a lot more going on in the pre-root and install process than just flashing your tablet with a custom_update_signed.zip file.
Your other option is to do a normal update/install of 4.0.3r5 and then root it after it has been installed by using the method originally posted by WonderEkin.

Not yet for UK, keep an eye on my update thread... Update links are usually in there within a day
You could always use AIO tool to change to US region....

What I mean was that you could ask in another thread.
As already mentioned, the best thing to do is update and then root (you can even change your build.prop and install US update. It's was my case, I'm from Portugal).
The pre-rooted file it's possible, because I've update (from honeycomb) my tablet like that. with condi tool I was not able to create the signed update file.
OP how did you root your UK Sony Tab S? I'm on 1a and have tried everything just no luck. Any ideas?

Kies, Odin, Mobile Odin, CWM. Take your pick.
Unsure about any of them? There's a search function, and it's not just there to look pretty.
Just be sure to take note that you have an I9100G (according to your spammy signature) before doing something silly.

Update is as said via KIES the over the air FOTA service is not yet fully rolled out hopefully it will be ready for the imminent release of ICS Android 4 .
The latest version may not be available for your phone . In which case update via the stock roms post .

some website shows ics officially update realesed on 10th march?
So? They're clearly wrong, and if you would take a few seconds to search, you could have found official clarification.
By the way, sticking a question mark at the end of a statement a question does not make.

Yay, can you please post incremental value from the file vendor.prop in the vendor folder. So I can find the updates for others and add links to my thread
If you are comfortable with adb you can use: adb pull /vendor/vendor.prop
Then edit with notepad

The update is 300mb, the same as the initial update after buying the device - wonder if anything is included.

I.e. signed-txs03_xxx-ota-120829xxx.zip??
Btw, do you think region changer would be compatible between the two devices? Asking because you have both....
This is actually release 4, not 5.
Release 3 was over 300mb and so is release 4, yet release 4 claims to just fix WIFI.
I don't see why region changer wouldn't work, they are the same device in theory.
The update was only 16meg for me. How do I find this build prop thingy number? Ah just reread post above, ill try and get it later, not used adb before

You can dload root explorer or file manager from play store. Then navigate to vendor folder, its in there. Then copy to sd. Rename to vendor.txt and upload here. Thanks
Have just re-rooted my Xperia tablet and also installed the bootloop protection myself!
This i'll try that OTA Rootkeeper when the next patch comes out, I'm suprised that Sony hasn't patched the exploit in this update to prevent root.

Same here, nice to see Sony push this out real quick! Once JB lands on this thing and the Tegra 3 delay sometimes when pushing the power button is resolved, this will be an amazing tablet to own.

For starters R5 is only av for US atm. You will need root to change to US region then install OTA update or flash from zip. Might be best to wait for OTA update for your region.

Currently, Sony's stock Android 4.0.3r5a cannot be rooted, nor can it be downgraded to an earlier, rootable version. "Reading" is your friend.

You are replying to a post that is six months old. Things have changed. Now, Sony's stock Android 4.0.3r5a can be rooted using Condi's S.onyTablet.S [ALLinONE] Tool.
I found out how to root the Xperia Tablet S with the newest 4.1.1 Jellybean update! You just need to use the motochopper exploit , which can be downloaded here. Obviously, you need to extract all ZIPs to folders before running them. Be careful with root; the Xperia Tablet S doesn't have a custom recovery image you can install and flash a backup/fresh system from. (Note: I missed the older thread with this same exploit, but I'll keep my thread up since it has more detailed instructions. This exploit also apparently works with earlier updates, but I haven't tested this myself.)
Instructions:
1.) Enable USB Debugging on the tablet (by going to Settings>Developer>USB Debugging; if they're hidden go to Settings>About and tap the build number 7 times to show developer options.)
2.) Install the drivers.
3.) Check if the tablet is seen by your computer by opening command prompt and using the "adb devices" command (Windows users may have to "cd" (change directory) to a folder containing the adb executable).
4.) Run the motochopper script (run.bat in the motochopper folder, or run.sh for your Linux users) and let it do its work! Your Xperia Tablet S with 4.1.1 should be rooted in under 60 seconds!
Message/reply for more help. Press thanks if this worked!
EDIT: A note from dex9mm:
after rooting use the A.I.O tool from condi
And install the recsuce backdoor tweak from sub menu 4
Option 1
And option 3
for the rescue from boot loop

Well I'm an idiot. I didn't check recent posts before reporting my " discovery". Very sorry about that. I'll leave my post up because my instructions seem to be a bit more detailed than the other post's, unless I missed something.
well if your keeping yours due to proper english and cleaner i would at least add that it works for prior releases. I can only confirm r6b but I am sure other users will chime in. I would also suggest adding AIO tweak settings(4) then 1,3,4.

I won this tablet a few weeks ago, just before the JB update. It's a good device, but I was dissapointed for the lack of unlocked bootloader (considering most of Sony's Xperia devices are fully supported by sony to be rooted)
I had given up the root too because I couldn't find any Linux versions of this exploit. Thanks for the guide, at least I can has root now
