Erm, sorry don't understand what you asking..
If you're asking if there is any loss by locking it with "restore" option, then no. No side effects.

Ok, so that means its hassle free nd completely safe will not lead any future issues like will not break the installed unlocked ROM configuration.
Nd we will able to do future OTA without bricking our phone.
That's a gud news.
Thanks Mate:thumbup:

I recommend you first flash stock ftf before re locking. Don't relock when your phone has any other kernel except stock.

Note: If you are already on "Alliance kernel 1.5" , In the flash tool check the "Exclude kernel" option , It works great.

Its a download error.
I have Xperia Neo (MT15) and am on currently on CM 10 (FreeXperia) and want to try the Smart Xperia Rom. Do I have to follow this steps since I am on unlocked bootloader and the devices is already rooted:
Neo ( MT15 ) users:
for Neo ( LT15 ) users, download Neo V MT11 .587 ftf below, flash it via flashtool ( system, userdata, and kernel )
after booting, flash Neo V 562 kernel via flashtool
Root via Doomlord's ICS Xperia 2011 Rooting toolkit
after rooting complete, flash Neo V ftf .587 kernel again
Can someone please give the steps which I have to follow in brief to change from CM 10 to Smart Xperia ROM?

Thanks for this ROM Dani! I like it! :good:
Couple of questions though (since I'm a noob to all of these custom ROM stuff):
1. I'm assuming you're going to fix the xLoud issue in a future release, but in the meantime, how would I apply the fix you mentioned in your post?
2. Is there a way to remove the on-screen Back, Home and Options buttons on the home screen? I'm on a Neo V with the Xperia T Home Launcher and it already has physical buttons for those, so it's kinda redundant to me.
Anyway great job on the ROM!
xLoud fix by me :victory::highfive:

tell us exactly what was the condition of your phone before updating like unloked bootloader?

Unlocking bootloader officially

I have Neo V used test point method 10 months back to unlock my device as now my phone completed a year so here warranty period laps..
Just curious to know is there any benefit to officially unlocking my device?
If yes, is it necessary to lock my device using "S1 Tool" before unlocking it officially?

Lolz!
Its generally the other way round that people ask
As in Is it beneficial to unlock unofficially
Anyways to answer you,no nothing fancy in unlocking officially!
You're better off with unlocked bl that too via testpoint!
There's just need for Unlocked bl -Be it anyhow you do Either official or unofficial...
Still,
If you're doing official unlock ,you need to be on stock fw if I'm not wrong and yea,with a locked bootloader Ofcourse

Just for the curiosity
I guess its better to b unlock unofficially because it preserve the DRM keys so software like Track ID still works
Anyway Thanks Bro :thumbup:
