It's because of that the ics is not released for your territory yet !!
so you can download the ics from here if you have st25i :

and download it from here if you have st25a :

then install them according to this topic :

As he said before,
Simplest way:
Download ftf of ICS.
Download and install flashtool.
Flash the ftf.

flashtool does not root or unlock bootloader of your device until you do it by your own.
It is a tool to install firmwares on Sony Xperia Devices.
So do not worry about it thanks to neectron for a helpful thread on Sola Development Section

Is it safe to upgrade to ICS? I am very confused? i have done this before but I dont wanna take risk with me new phone. Is this ICS update bug free?
And if something went wrong can i go back to my origional software?
No there isnt any risk
Ucs is always better in all means than gingerbread..
But at the same will consume a bit more ram..
Nothing goes wrong normally..
Its safe and if sumthing goes wrong flash back to gb using flashtool..
Otherwise no prob..

There are many ICS TFt files on the link which one is correct one?
I am downloading this torrent file "Stock Global 6.1.1.B.1.10 -torrent". It contains two files one is ftf and other is a small md5 file. What I have to do with this md5 file?
Very very very slow. Came back to to GB. Runs like lightening. uffffff.
My Sola works great with Stock ICS and you may also use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2034888 this link to install MIUI custom its works great but then u will have to root ur device.......

How to root? I have b.1.54.
I waited for my ICS update on Xperia U didn't came I had nothing but to use stock firmware and even Xperia 2011 Ray update came in Pakistan a week back.
I had also flashed ics b.1.54.
Hi,
It's 20th May by now and Sony PC Companion still isn't showing me the latest jelly bean update. Same way with SUS. It says new version is available (that's 6.1.1.B.1.10 ics) and when i update it, companion says that's the latest version. What should I do? (and I want official sony companion firmware not the one to flash).
Any help would be appreciated. :good:

Root your phone and edit your SI number in build.prop to get update.

could you maybe upload your tft files for the .10 build please? I got mines from hong kong or czech and I don't like it them much, I only need them for rooting.
Hi all,
I have a rooted xperia go 6.1.1.b.1.54. I have a notification for an update for 6.2.A.0.400 and was wondering if I am able to update the firmware while my device is rooted? How do I do so? I'm quite new to this and i am afraid that i may brick my phone while updating my firmware. Lol
Just flash your ics .54 ftf using flashtool.. Then update.. Or while you're rooted change si no in build.prop to this 1264-7472.. You'll get the latest a.1.100 firmware update through pc companion! :thumbup:

So there are two ways? 1.)Flash .54 then update, 2.)change si no in build.prop and update through pc companion.
Hmm, I think i will do the 2nd one.
Just making sure. Uhm when I change my si no in build.prop to 1264-7472 and update through pc companion, will my device update from .54 to a.1.100 directly? Is this perfectly safe? I'm a bit paranoid haha
Yes it is perfectly safe.. !! Just change the si number n reboot.. You'll get the update
Oh and another thing, will I lose my root once i get updated to a.1.100?

Hi all,
I have xperia Sola with android 2.3.7 and when I check Software update through the phone it says it has the latest update.
so I connected to Pc companion and it said that there is new update but cant update because the phone doesnt support Win 8.
Any solution?

Use flashtool and flash newest firmware for Your phone.
Unlock the bootloader, install CWM and flash a custom rom, the ICS update has a lot of bugs...
