As long as your bootloader is NOT unlocked you should be able to update via OTA without problems.

theming needs access to system files, and accessing system files needs rooting
You can try custom launcher and rooting won't really affect your update

Rooting your phone won't defect it from updating to ICS.
Just root your phone.
You can try : [MOD][ICS|GB] DefaultThemes.apk mod like you want.
This is my mod for stock theme manager... Install like normal app After reboot stock themes will restored...

rooting your devices doesn't have any effect on updating using SEUS or OTA but un-locking bootloader does...it will prevent your device from receiving official update from Sony....
anyway you can always lock/re-lock bootloader again in case you want update from Sony....

rooting voids warranty
many people dont root their android because it voids the warranty, and i know you can "unroot" it later on, but still i wouldnt like to mess up with it till my warranty is there. upgrade to ICS or no upgrade, i would stay away from rooting for the time being at least.
so can we get themes for unrooted LwW?
Thanks

Hi so as you know guys the jelly bean update for the Xperia tablet s is round the corner.
So anyway I'm not exactly sure how I update my xts. I am currently rooted so uhm do I just update it the usual way through tablet or will I have to remove root first then update?

When the update arrives, you can either update via OTA, or, wait till a kind sole pre-roots and flash the zip.
Okay thanks I think I'll just update it originally and wait for some genius to root it later.

I personally don't think it'll need root. My Sony Xperia T doesn't need with JellyBean on...
Hi, lurking the forum about Xperia sola I noticed that exist this rom (experience v2) that I could install on my xperia sola ics (.54) NOT rooted and with locked BL...
So, I would some piece of information about it. I can flash this rom without unlocking the bootloader and without have rooted my ics .54?and then, if I would return to my original ICS .54 I can do it without unlocking the BL (I ask this just because my xperia sola is already in warranty and I don't wanna lose it)? Thanks in advance...
you can do it without unlocking bootloader but you need root for that and you can return to stock without unlocking

Since you will be rooting your phone and you will be able to install CWM recovery,it wouldnt hurt you to back up everything!
You will be fully covered if something goes wrong or if you decide that you prefer your stock Sony rom,with the whole phone configuration as it is right now!
Better root your phone and take a back up first!
Then,you can try ANYTHING you want!
Hi everyone, 20 minutes ago I updated my L9 to Jelly Bean 4.1.2 (v20b), and it's fantastic. Now what I ask you is: How can I install Clockwork Recovery and official Cyanogenmod 10.1?
I would like to know this too. I need to find a root method for mac, and a simple explanation. The rest i can figure out. I just got jelly bean yesterday on my P769<3

U need to unlock bootloader for installing any custom rom.
If u dont want to unlock bootloader, root ur device and use cwm 1.5 by artas
Sent from my LG-P765 using xda app-developers app
And do root your device the only method is in ICS so if you want root you need to downgrade to ICS get root and then use Voodoo Root keep then update to jellybean again... hope that answers some questions...
