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!!!

Hi dears!
I would like to know if I can install and Custom rom or a kernel to overlock my Xperia Neo, with CMW and locked bootloader.
Thanks for your time guys
Kind Regards,
Ghafit
you can install a custom rom(rom should be converted to recovery image file) , but kernel cannot be installed on locked bootloader...
so, with stock kernel for example, can I install CM7, do you recommend that to me?
Nope, don't try that... you need a custom kernel for CM7 or MIUI roms.
and there aren't anymore nice custom roms with stock 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.

GB rom are good so if you want them simply flash the rom with cwm and flash the kernel using flashtool

No need to DOWNGRADE
No need to ROOT
All the four custom kernels you mentioned above are pre-rooted with pre-installed CWM
Just flash them!

My Problem isn't in rooting or downgrading
I just want to know whether custom kernel will make me gain root with out the need to push stuff like SuperUser and BusyBox to phone
Thanks Buddy:good:
As For Downgrading it's not Needed to downgrade the hole rom
just flash an older stock kernel ,root it then flash the default kernel
see Sony forums

Great!!!
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
