mr @[email protected]
ST35a
ver is 4.0.4
6.1.1.B.1.54
kernel 3.0.8 +
this all information in "About phone " Menu ​

Hi, I need to know the same as well.
I'm on Android 4.0.4 firmware 6.1.1.B.1.54
Can somebody help me like in a step by step guide like this one? >>> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2107775
All I want to know is if I can root my Xperia U with Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry on 6.1.1.B.1.54 FW? Or if I would need to flash another FW in order to root?
Thanks in advance.

AFAIK .54 FW cant be flashed using Binary method........
the steps are if you are on .54 FW
1) flash .10 kernel
2) root using binary
3) flash .54 kernel

i saw it somewhere on xda but now i dont remember. you need older stock kernel because expliot was fixed on new kernel
dude i flashed .58 kernal , and d above image is after that
and sorry for the double post
Clockworkmode is best for recovery ... use it,and to remove your error you should open task manager and kill adb.exe process and then restart all the rooting procedure that i told you...
make sure you have enabled unknown sources and usb debugging ON
And connect your device to PC only,don't connect any other usb device simultaneously like other mobile...
It should work then as i have tested it on my XMP

[ROM][XPERIA SOLA] 6.0.B.3.184 Central Europe

Can't say much more about the ROM than what's already in the title, I grabbed it from i-don't-quite-remember-where (but not from warez type sites) since I couldn't update with PCC 'cause of unlocked bootloader. Checked it and it's the real deal, got it flashed and running on my Sola. FTF packaged neatly in a RAR.

EDIT:
Yes the rom came from Irontech so all credits and thanks go to him for publishing it (i only remembered it was him who released it on forum when rohit gave the link), but i think its place is here where it won't be lost in waves of threads like on general.
File Size: 242.95MB ,will give it a try.
Here is the post where it was originally post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1810108
The Rom is quite good, I also flashed it.

Check in the Update Centre, and if it is available, simply download and update your device. And no need to flash too!– I updated my phone this way today and it is completely safe. Hope that helps, mate

If I remember right you can't root manually yet. You have to flash a kernel with auto root etc.
If anyone knows otherwise please share!

[Latest Firmware] Xperia Neov .587 ftf (With 587 kernel)Depositfile Link added

Hello Everyone
As promised
Here is the Indian ftf file of the latest firmware for neov :
India ftf .587 : http://depositfiles.com/files/zlh1aa1eg
Rapidshare Link : https://rapidshare.com/files/229699....0.587_India SI 1254-8966 by abhiheart.ftf.7z [Nordic]
DepositFiles Link : http://depositfiles.com/files/fv41l9rv2 [Noridic ]
The ftf will work on all neov
Download & Extract using winrar or 7z
Install via flashtool
Do create a backup of ur current ROM
For rooting And CWM install : Same procedure as for .431 :Thanks Madfysh for the info on rooting and cwm
For peeps waiting on the kernel here is what u need to do : After flashing the ftf And rooting it and installing CWM: Go to flashtool again using flashmode U should have the.587 firmware ftf in firmware folder And in wipe section uncheck everything
In exclude section check everything except kernel that is dont check exclude kernel and thats it .. flash and reboot ..u should be fine ...
For those peeps getting bootloops after applying .431 mods on .587 here is the solution :
In CWM do clear u cache and dalvik cache before flashing the mods & for peeps looking to apply mods manually below are the instructions
For all those facing unexpected reboots on changing system apps listen carefully........
Dont directly copy the apps to /system/apps it will lead to a reboot...
Solution is
1. copy the app to /system first
2. Change permissions to rw_r__r__
3. Now copy the app to /system/app.
4. Replace it if necessary
5. As permissions were changed before replacing no reboot
6. After replacing as many apps as u want reboot the phone for changes to take effect
Njoyyy
Thanks to Salsreloded again Thanks dude
Thanks to Salsreloded for pointing it out (i knew but forgot) Thanks dude
Thanks to Samak46 bcoz of him i got to know that the update is out
For peeps not getting update on PC companion :
Install SEUS from here
http://www.sonymobile.com/in/software/phones/xperia-neo-v/
and update
For unlocked bootloaders will need to relock ur bootloader to update from SEUS or PC companion OR simply download the ftf and flash using flashtool ..root and install CWM an uare done
Good going... using kinght47's method need to get the useless apps stripped and keep it flash ready.. expect I-Scream, Hybrid, ICS tweaked on this soon
