Hi guys!
Few days ago before flashing custom Kernel and ROM i made Sony Xperia Mini Pro stock .ftf file (using tutorial somewhere in forum) when bootloader was locked. Now i have a question:
Can i use that .ftf file now when my bootloader is unlocked? If not, what i should to do? Edit .ftf file or something?
Thanks for answers.
With respect, Ciziokas.

Yes you can!. Just don´t do OTA, or you will brick your device

Thanks for answers And one more question: I have Cyanogenmod 9.1 ROM so if i wanna go back to stock .587 rom, I just need to flash .ftf file via flashtool? I'm right?

Hi, I'm a noob here and in android platform.
So I bought this sk17i and it has 2.3.4 4.0.2.A.0.62
I was trying to root it fails and from what I've read around here it's because of 4.0.2.A.0.62? is there a work around with that?
thanks
I didnt try it, but an older official kernel should work as mentioned here:
http://www.xperiablog.net/2011/12/2...4-0-2-a-0-62-rolling-out-just-a-minor-update/
if you have an unlocked bootloader, you can also flash this here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1440161
thanks but can you tell me where to get the stock kernel for sk17i? I'm sorry I'm new to this I've been searching but all I could find are the ones that are modded
by the way I was trying to use modded kernels but I always get this:
FAILED(remote: The devices must be rooted first)
You need to unlock bootloader to flash custom kernel

Isn't it the whole firmware? I had seen in some forum(I think it was sonyericsson's support forum) Xperia arc's kernel (only kernel) was available. It was a zipped file, only around 4-5mb.
Isn't something like that available for our phone. I searched a lot, but didn't find it.
Won't flashing the whole firmware (in the link) unlock bootloader?

Unlock bootloader is different than flashing the fw although it is related if you want to flash the custom ROM (and custom kernel of course such as rage or krsh kernel).
Google "unlock bootloader+sony ericsson" to find the website where you can get the key to do so.
Im using stock .62 fw with unlocked bl becoz i want to use custom kernel with prerooting as .62 cant be rooted by superoneclick and i dont mind on the effect to the warranty. Somemore, cm ROM isnt stable enough.
In other words, you can flash stock ROM with stock kernel even if you dont unlock bootloader but if you want to flash custom kernel or custom ROM or both, bl had to be unlock or else you will stuck at S.E words during boot.

Since its 24, only days away from the awaited ICS update. I am ver confused on how to revert back to stock rom/kernel and relocking bootloader. And with those problems I cannot use SEUS and PCC, so what do I need to do?
Flash stock rom then kernel then relock bootloader? Then update to ICS?
Is that the right arrangement? Or did I missed anything?
And how about the baseband?
Im really confused.
Please help and links to where I can download those things
Thank YOU!
Install stock firmware from a complete .ftf file, it includes proper baseband, kernel etc.
To download and install it, read my tutorial, link in signature.
Go to a local service shop and upload the stock rom withe setool service software.

How about stock kernel? can i relock bootloader with a different kernel?
No you cannot lock bootloader with custom kernel. I suggest to make ur phone as good as new to prepare for the update

as far i knw, the ftf files already include the kernel. full wipe > flash ftf through flashtool > relock bootloader, YOU'RE DONE!

1- You posted in the wrong section
2- There is no modified rom as ftf file, because we make ftf file by flashtool from PC Companion or Sony Update Service and these two programs download only Origial Stock firmwares
Hello everyone,
Recently i rooted my xperia s with bootloader unlocked and flashed with cm9.1, now i need to change cm9.1 to stock rom 6.1.A.2.45 which is now available for download in xda forums, also i have made a back up of 6.1.A.2.45 (via SEUS) in my pc using flashtool.

Go to Xperia S forum and post this question in the Q&A section to get appropriate guidance...... but before that goto XS section and search for it....... you will surely find your answer......
I'm about to try the new TinyXperiaLite ROM by thunderising here but it says that I have to have flashed the Stock ICS FTF before I could install the rom. Now, I'm not sure if I've done that, but for a safer side, I'd like to have the Stock ICS FTF file. Can anyone share this?
I've an unlocked Bootloader with Root privileges.
Thanks,
B.

Thanks for the quick reply, do you know if there's a difference between the STOCK FTF and a normal FTF (Sorry if it's a stupid question!)? I already have an FTF file named ST27i_ICS_XPERIAcz.ftf and has about 375MB size - but I'm not sure if it's a STOCK!
EDIT: I searched the Xperia GO Dev forum with 'Stock Firmware' and found only a couple of Stock, that too for GB. If anyone can help me get the STOCK ICS FTF, or confirm if a STOCK FTF is not different than a normal FTF, it'd be great. Thanks in advnace!
