I'm on rage kernel 3.0 and stock gingerbread
I want stock ICS are there any method for flashing stock ICS without using
Sony PC Companion??
If you're using a custom kernel then it wont boot after relocking, so you need to flash a stock kernel and a ROM that works on it.

I flashed stock kernel using this one

but it doesnt work
Hmmm...flash the whole packages including the firmwares from that link then re-lock your bootloader....
if you want to use stock ICS, then you don't have to re-lock your bootloader....just flash ICS custom kernel, then flash stock ICS firmwares.....

Hmmm...the link that you give before this contains all stock ICS firmwares with some are mod by adding pre-rooted and CWM as buit-in packs....

Hi, I have unlocked bootloader using official method on SE site and flashed custom kernel to get root privileges on my SK17i (firmware is stock .62...), so if I want to relock bootloader (I think I can manage this ) do I have to flash stock kernel also or it's enough just to have stock rom (with bl locked of course) to be able to update safely when official ICS comes out?
First you must flash stock kernel and then lock you bootloader cause custom kernel can't work with locked bootloaderYou can't update to ICS with custom kernel as far as i know.
ICS will definitely require stock firmware and kernel.
And yes, first install stock kernel, then relock bootloader.

No need to flash stock kernel separately... Just download stock firmware and flash it.. It includes the stock kernel... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=30731936

Yes, flashing ftf "official" file ROM will remove CWM and new flashed ROM will has no root rights.
The same flashing with Sony PC Companion and SEUS.
ok thanks

Only if it's installed in the system, if you're bootloader is unlocked and you have a custom kernel with it, then no.

Flashing a stock ftf also flashes the stock kernel so yes it will be removed.

thanks but how about if my phone is unlocked bootloader then i flash official tft roms, will unlocked bootloader be locked again?
Your phone will return to stock as it just came out of the box if you flash the factory image via fast boot. Including kernel and recovery therefore, you will lose cwm. You can also lock up the boot loader again using toolkit.

yap
but u can always root again
Hi guys, i've unlocked my bootloader and i've rooted. I flashed eXperience v.1.1 by Divaksh (stock based) and i want to return to stock ics 'cause i want to try cm9.1. Now the questions:
1- Will i have locked bootloader again?
2- Will i lost my root permission?
and the last: can i flash stock ics via CWM?
thank you :good:
Nope. Bootloader is independent of roms & kernels so you wont lose Bootloader unlock
But you'll always lose root if you flash Stock. And if you want to flash with cwm, see if anyone has uploaded a CWM flashable zip for the firmware. Else you need to use Flashtool
Hope it helps
Cheers

So this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2030261 would work just wiping and flashing with CWM?
Thanks for your help :fingers-crossed:
Yes I believe that ought to work fine
Enjoy
Cheers
Thanks man but the stock ics flashed by CWM and pc companion said me i had to update the system even if it was already .54 version and any attempt to update failed because of my unlocked bootloader. The same firmware flashed by flashtool didn't need any update and finally allowed my to boot "pure blood" ROM. Thanks anyway :cyclops:
Hi, i've an Xperia P with locked bootloader, .100 firmware, root, cwm and THE DARK ROM flashed. Now i want to flash JB Moonbreaker 3.5 and i want to know if it's necessary to flash a stock jb kernel as described in the instruction. Can't i only flash the zip that contain the rom as i did for The Dark ROM?

You can always try, however, I can tell you "The Dark ROM" install things this ROM may not be ready for and might conflict with what istalled with this ROM.
When there is a doubt there is no doubt, best you can do is re-flash stock and install JB Moonbreaker.
There are enough problems with custom ROMs, you don't want to add more.

Yes, ofcourse.
DO NOT FLASH THE KERNEL(bricks your phone if you are lb)
I think just flash zip would be alright.

Yeah my doubt was about the need to flash a stock kernel (not custom) before flashing Moonbreaker
So, I have my unlocked bootloader and CM9, I want to go back to the stock firmware and use a custom kernel, so.. for install the stock firmware, can I just flash the ftf via flashtools normally? or I will have any problem?
and for install the custom kernel I suppose that i only should install a recovery and flash it.... Am I right?
Thanks!

Yup that's about it.
And you flash custom kernel with fastboot, that will save you tha hassle of rooting and installing CWM recovery..

Can we use this method in xperia sola too? So we flash the stock firmware directly by using flashtool and then the kernel, and in any part of the process do we need to wipe anything at all?
Thanks in advance
