If there a different govs in the stock kernel yes... and tegrak (paid version) you can actually overclock the stock kernel although I wouldn't recommend it....

Thanks, just sorting my mum's U out, but didn't wanna unlock the bootloader. Root is enough

You need to re-lock the bootloader if you want to update through pcc.

Hi,
I need some help. I just upgraded my firmware to 6.0.a.3.75 using the Update Service and I would like to root my phone.
So I need to follow this tutorial to unlock the bootloader:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1527159
Then I use FlashTool with the firmware LT26_6.0.A.3.76_TW or LT26I_6.0.A.3.75_CE1
and then I use fastboot, with the file KA_Xperia_S_prerooted_76TW or KA_Xperia_S_prerooted_75CE from this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1685672
That is correct?
How do I know which region of my current firmware?
And what this means: "Also this is ONLY RECOVERY for now! You cannot boot the actual system with it!"
What is the difference between recovery and the actual system?

thanks and Sorry for English

A stock ICS from without root.... you mean the stock ICS that comes with the phone?
But, a ROM without root? Not possible. You have to be rooted to run and install ROMs.
What about a rom that is flashable through recovery without superuser?

I'm pretty sure the older stock ICS kernel won't work on the global leak.

[Q] Locked bootloader + CWM?

So, I was searching for solution to have custom recovery on my locked Xperia S and i couldn't find it. Is it even possible because of my locked bootloader? My phone is rooted.
Rooting with This method gives recovery on locked bootloader.
I'm using it. I make backups and also flash roms that are for locked bootloader.

xcream and [email protected] roms are pretty cool, easy to install on locked bootloader and clean,
You can also use the attached "recovery", very quick no reinstalls, and even root direct with flashtool. A lot faster than the old method

My SXS is rooted (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460) and CWM is installed (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1756346) on locked bootloader. So I can install for example the [email protected] ROM with CWM and will still have root and CWM?
Thx for answers!

The BL unlock has been patched in this OTA. Adam made a new thread talking about it. I would advise removing or editing your post, as some noob will go to it (not read) and brick.

Yes. Think if it as 2 levels of a hack. (I'm no pro so thus is a very generic description). With root you can do many more things than an unrooted phone (I rooted just to load all the apps in the multi window drawer). However, with an unlocked bootloader you can do even more (custom roms, overclock, nandroid.....which is a TOTAL backup of your phone, that can restore it to it's wxact state of when you nandroid it). I am rooted but did not unlock my bootloader (yet).

You can definitely make a nandroid with a locked bootloader, my dude.

Lol.....like I said, I'm (obviously) no pro. This is my first samsung. Is there an app or toolbox or something I can get? Or do i have to mess with odin (I'm still not even clear as to what odin is). I used the app to inject root and when I try to boot in to recovery it warns about customs roms so I just cancel it. Can I do that and proceed without screwing uo my phone?

Don't mess with odin unless whatever instructions you're reading call for it. Flash roms with a custom recovery.

I'm not unlocked though? I can flash roms with just root? Sorry......still learning. I've only had HTC in the past and they were unlocked. I really just want to nandroid. What's a custom recovery that I can use without being unlocked? Thanks!

I don't know if you should be messing around with this phone at your tech level, brotha. Now you're asking a whole bunch of questions and I don't feel like being an android 101 guy tonight.
Honesty, google is where it's at. It's how I learned. Wikipedia, too.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2
Too late. I tried to backup in CWM and got that awful screen telling me i had unauthorized software and to head to verizon (and i haven't installed the OTA). Had to restore to stock and then reroot. I thought i had a grasp of this but i guess not.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 2
The main feature to unlocking the Bootloader is to have a custom kernel. Which handles the way the CPU works, which in turn with a custom kernel improve performance, and battery life.
I was under the impression you had to be rooted to unlock the bootloader but I guess not now
Be patient. No need to hurry. Read up until you have more confidence and context. Sounds like you are learning fast though.

Functionality without unlocked bootloader

Im getting an Atrix tomorrow nothing has been done to it should i update the software on phone and then root or vice versa? Can i do all this without an unlocked bootloader? Im not looking to flash any roms or CWM.
You can root it without unlocking

And i can overclock too meaning set cpu like no frills to 400`s min to 1.00 max for a little more speed?

It might be possible, but from what i've seen thats a kernel related issue. To flash a new kernel, you need to unlock.
May i ask why you don't want to unlock?
Sent from my DROIDX using xda app-developers app
Well if its rooted it should be able to do no frills and adjust cpu. Thats really all i want to do

Yes, but you can't overclock the stock kernel. just underclock it
Then what is the deal with people that rooted and not unlocked and flash recovery and roms from rom manager?

Its an exploited weakness in the system that rom manager uses. Its like the A2, and in my side job device, the DX, bootstrap can be used. I'm not sure if there's an official bootstrap for the 4G though. But like i said, it gets into the system and exploits a weakness and installs a new recovery. You then reboot into recovery from rom manager to install a custom rom

I don't see why not. I've never done it like that with the 4G, but it should be possible
Sent from my DROIDX using xda app-developers app
That is impossible. Where did you see that?
Maybe you need to do more research.
The HD can so shouldnt this be able to? Also i think i could root this and no frills on this and set min in the 400`s and max 1.0 of course. Is this possible without BL
Don't compare. Atrix was/is an experiment from motorola. It has very unique things that atrix 2 and atrix hd don't have.
Edit: again, you can do whatever you want with stock kernel, except overclocking it.
