Hello I am a little confused in the various guidelines and procedures .. wondering some light on:
I state that I have .. xperia s updated to 6.1.A.0.452 ICS ... when I go to download the file server prerooted.img in XDA I see that folder there are two GB of KA PREROOTED while in the ICS folder there nothing .. so I wanted to ask but the guide and for those who have GB installed or can I flash one of them having already KA ICS? .. and if so, what one?
sorry for my bad english
use this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1729280
Are you saying you want root access and recovery on your phone?
If so unlock the bootloader -
http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/
Then you can fastboot an auto rooting kernel from the site like advanced stock kernel. Job done (there are guides for this in the stickies at the top of the forum)

First of all post in question and answer forum..
Second if you want to flash a pre rooted image then you have to unlock your bootloader, and you can find the pre rooted ics image in Android dev section..
If you want root and recovery without unlocking then go to the link in my signature..
Enjoy

If you rooted your .431, you don't need downgrade to gb, run step III from your rooted 431 and follow instruction ( in step 4 flash 587 ftf instead 431, you can fimd ,587 ftf for your phone in this forum) and ( recommend to use flashtool to flash your 587 rom ft f)

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.
