I think you will lose your root anyway when you update to .63

[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.
How to flash it? Sorry, I'm new.

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!

When the U ICS update rolls out next week - is it expected we can use the "Root Many Android" method to obtain root without unlocking the bootloader?

[Q] need some advice before i root my Xperia U

hello. im a user of Xperia u. st25i ics 4.0.4 build number 6.1.1.B.1.10. i just want to ask the experts before i root my phone.
1)what is the advisable method for me as a noob user?(easiest and safest way of rooting)
2)what are the disadvantages if i root? i've read somewhere that the led bar will function incorrectly is that true?
3)if the rooting process has been stopped, will it ruin the phone?
i have some more question but i cant remember it for now, maybe because im so nervous about rooting. thank you very much in advance.

1) if you want to root .10 Fw you can do it easily by using binary method.... But why you don't flash .54???
2) no disadvantage as such until you know what you are doin..... And I don't think led has anything to do with rooting until you are on stock Rom
3) no it won't do any serious damage... You can repair easily....
