Few Questions about flashing ICS Rom on Neo V - Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro

Hello. This is my first thread on xda so plz forgive me for any mistake.
I've some questions about flashing ICS Stock/Custom Rom on my phone.
My device is rooted with unlocked bootloader.I'm Currently on Codename 9 Final Rom with NE 9.6 Experimental lite Kernel.
Q.1) Can I Flash ICS stock/custom rom with 9.6 experimental lite kernel through CWM?
Q.2) Will I lose my Root Rights if I flashed ICS stock/custom Rom?
Q.3) Can I Flash Custom GB Rom after flashing ICS rom?

When you move from GB to ICS..u WILL lose root..
Before flashing ICS custom rom..flash stock ICS first..same thing for GB..
and you can flash stock roms using flashtool..
And since this is a ques..why dint you post in Q&A??

No your currently installed kernel will not work with ics. Your kernel is for gb roms, ics roms need ics kernels. If you want to stay with alliance than choose their kernel made for ics like night elf 1.5

Sorry but polish blood requires an unlocked bootloader!
Try any stock based ROM if you want a ICS ROM..
Pureness 11 is a great choice!

and can you just send the link......to that download file.............i m not sure to what i downloaded .........its a patch for neo v that i downloaded....from mediafire link given there........what about the rom ??????? or is it the rom file ??????
sorry for being noobish
I would recommend Xperia Pureness, but It drains batter as hell. Try some other option if battery life is a must for you. Although good performance and stability.
can you send me the link pz.............i m not finding it .......i found a patch.....thats all..sorry for trouble

[Q] Need 4.1.A.0.562 and 4.1.B.0.431 kernels for INDIAN Xperia Neo V

I have an INDIAN Xperia Neo V device currently running on 4.1.B.0.431 firmware. I am thinking of rooting it, for which I require 4.1.B.0.431 and 4.1.A.0.562 kernel files, INDIAN version.
Any idea from where I can get them? I tried searching and downloaded a couple of them but they seem to be international versions.

Thanks for reply, mate! Now I guess the "i" in MT11i stands for 'international'.

yup MT11i = International Version & MT11a = America
and for your information 4.1.B.0.587 is available for download, why dont you update first then root your phone....
it doesnt matter..as Samak said..
U can flash international, nordic..etc..evrything will work fine..
I think i flashed nordic .587 coz .587 was not available in India at that time..atleast for my SI..
Thanks for all your inputs guys! I was able to root with available international kernel.
My phone had previously notified me about 4.1.B.0.587 update available. But since I needed to go back to 4.1.A.0.562 for rooting, it made no sense to update. So now I'm having a 4.1.A.0.562 kernel on rooted device. And loving it!
Thanks again guys!

Why just .431 kernel...
He can very well flash just .587 kernel that won't have any issues with root.(don't flash entire fw..you'll lose root @ OP )

JB installation on (mango)xperia mini pro sk17i

Hi all I'm from x8 forum,how i can install jelly bean on xperia mini pro(mango).When is it possible the easiest way and step for step guide.Thanks.:fingers-crossed:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1879982
There's no official jb for mango sadly. But there's an unofficial cyanogenmod 10 with some of jelly bean goodies for our device and a lot of ported rom over the dev section.
I recommend for you to take a look for sticky thread regarding flashing custom rom.
Basicly all that you have to do is unlock your bootloader,flash the kernel and flash the rom in clockworkmod.
If you encouter a problem,don't hesitate to ask question. There's a bunch of good folks around here.

It's not like CM10 is fully stable as there are some minor bugs...
Most bugs have been fixed for 2011 devices (see fxp changelog) ... And FXP team is working hard to provide a stable JB:thumbup:
According to my point of view, FXP 147 is the most stable version... With FXP kernel attached in download zip file...
But you can try MESA 2.3 or DDS kernel for a better battery life
Sent via SMULTRON
I tried to download the leatest version and kernel of the rom ,but can't find the links.
Currently I'm using cm10 fxp 147 and kernel. The rom is stable enough for daily use in my opinion. U might consider other extended kernel e.g mesa or dds.
Bugs include front cam not working, soft button light and a couple of people experience bad battery drainage.

Hi there,
I am pretty sure you have got many replies in here.
Actually you can flash kernels above roms, just download a kernel that suits your needs and flash it using flashtool or flashboot.
As you are using an ICS ROM, any ICS kernel will do. I am myself using Alliance kernel, it has got pretty good battery backup and can be overclocked too.
Previously I was using suave kernel, thats good too, You can try it out yourself, Suave is pretty good as I have been using it on my Neo V since 4-5 months, just today I moved to alliance, which I am pretty much enjoying
Checkout for Alliance and suave in Neo V android development forums
Thanks
I'd like to thanks from my heart everyone who helps me to choose one kernel for ICS Pureness.
Finally, i selected The Alliance Kernel and now i have not any lag on any game...
Thanks so much everuone

No. To go to JB from GB, You have to flash 2 things:
1.ICS Baseband
(How.to flash Baseband only: While you select which ftf to flash in flashmode, select exclude system in right box & click OK)
2. JB Kernel
Then just flash the zip with the usual way. You're on JB from GB!
Cheers!
