hello folks! I bought a few days a xperia active, I installed the superuser doing the downgrade to gb, then bring it to version 4.0.4 build 4.1.B.0.431.
I also installed the kernel panic so I can not do the update to 587,
someone kindly explain what should I do to update? I have to change the kernel?
thanks to all.

To update you need to flash the .587 ftf using flashtool and after that flash a prerooted kernel for ics. You didn't need to downgrade if you want to root ics. If your bootloader is unlocked, just flash a prerooted kernel like kernel panic or rage kernel

hi,
I´m on rooted neo v with bootloader unlocked and have updated fw and kernel to .62
but I still have old baseband (xxD-56 - new is D-64)
don´t see any disadvantages so far,
I´m just curious and interested.
and where is the baseband integrated (if)?
Kernel or FW?
for other devices (i.e. HTC) you can update baseband
by cwm and zip-file...
Here you go!
.62 firmware Baseband:

i found in another thread the .64 baseband for neo v which is here:
http://205.196.122.253/3370kbxvo93g/lis7dx8dhppylq2/.64+baseband.rar
which one shud i install..
im on .62 based fw (NeoV.62_ODEX_Smooth_Spacious_n_Light)
and night-elf kernel...
Suggest you to do a full flash to 0.62 fw with flashtool using this ftf file,then move to spacious rom This way your phone is fully updated to 0.62 fw.

I do not know why but this never worked for me,after flashing this and few seconds after booting it keeps getting rebooted at Sony ericsson kernel boot logo
cool.. will try in sometime
1. First download 4.0.3 kernel. (Neo V officially but will work on Neo)
2. Open flashtool 7.0 or newer version and flash just the kernel: untick wipe data/cache and tick exclude system/baseband and no final verification check.
3. Root with DooMLoRD's one click method shown here.
4. Optional: install CWM.
5. Now reflash 4.0.4 kernel using flashtool like shown above.
If you somehow do not have 4.0.4 firmware or if you are not on ICS but you want to update to, follow this guide from where you can download 4.0.3 and 4.0.4 ftf.
is it also applicable on Neo MT15i ? ? ?

this thread is for 4.0.4 android version but you may try the same steps on your device just with flashing .42 kernel, rooting with zergrush v4 method NOT this one and then reflashing .62 just be sure that nothing bad can happen to your phone if you flash just the kernel

I'm not sure what you want to say. If you are asking about updating to ICS, rooting the phone is optional. Here is how you can update to ICS.
I must have ICS 4.0.4, for I can from 2.3.4.¿?
Sorry muy bad bad bad ... english.

you must be on 4.0.4 but I posted a link in the previous posts how to update to 4.0.4 if it is still not available in your country.
Is The Kernel Updated To 3.0.x in ICS 4.0.4
Works!!!
I confirm that this works.
From 4.0.4 (4.1.B.0.431) then flashed the kernel (4.1.A.0.562) and followed the doomlords guide and back to (4.1.B.0.431).
Phone (Xperia NEO) rooted =) locked BL thanks man.
Ok I'm a noob. Where the hell is the thank button
ok i need to post first to see the thank button.
Works great.
I've bootlooped my phone several times before, with the other tuts, but this works great.
Works here, locked bootloader.

lol and how do you expect to have 4.0.4 if you don't want to download the whole rom?
you wanted to ask for a 4.0.3 kernel?
if yes, get it from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26798415&postcount=141
I meant,i am already on ics 4.0.4.
to root it,i need to flash first the kernel of 4.0.3 and then 4.0.4.
so,download link for 4.0.4 kernel?

Flash generic global .42 (comes with correct kernal) root it then OTA update to 62 install cwm then go from their do wat you want
But since I have an unlocked bootloader, do you think I would be able to update OTA?
Won't it brick the phone?
Sent from my MT11i using xda premium
mine brick while update through OTA.i have to relock BL with s1tool...
So what should I do?
Should I flash the 0.62 ftf file using flashtool directly and then root it with the Doomlord's kit?
Or any other suggestions???

He's on unlocked bootloader, why messing with ota's..
@OP: if you wanna jump straight to some custom rom: flash .62 .ftf, and flash any custom kernel advised by rom creator.
Its same as you did with ics, first stock .ftf then kernel, then rom.
Hey man. If you previously were using the latest ICS Sony ROM before hopping to a custom ROM, then simply flash the kernel of that Custom GB ROM, wipe everything and flash as usual. You are good to go. There is no need to downgrade so long as you're on latest.

all you need change is you download .587 kernel tft insteed of .431 as the guide says.
Hi !
I'm interested in root my sk17i with .587 without a custom kernel and without using the 4.0.3 stock kernel metod.
I like to have the original kernel, but have root and recovery, It's possible for .587??
In dev section, I've only seen stock kernel with CWM and preroot but for .431
Thanks !

If you are referring to the extended stock kernel, it works with .587 and this is this best way to root stock for me!!!

I'm looking for kernel like extended kernel but based on .587 sources.
I will use extended kernel (.431) for the time being
Thanks !
