I think TS means jellybean as the Official Global version of Sony Xperia Go JB, 6.2.A.0.400.
Hi TS! Have you already rooted your xgo? if not, Do you have cwm? or maybe your xgo has unlocked b?
TS has to go the long way around if a rooted phone is wanted right now. B1n4ry method doesn't work (I tried).
Stock and locked JB ST27i
(Until someone can figure out an easy root with cwm solution for locked bl.)

My Xperia mini has official 4.0.2.A.0.62 firmware and I want to root it
I searched for this in this site and I found this way :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1346198
I like this way because it's easy and safe without any complicated steps like flashing
But it didn't work with this firmware
I want to root because the screen is too dark and I want to disable the light sensor of the device.
I'm new in this site and I want the easiest way to do this....
Anyone can help???
Thanks...
(Sorry for my bad english )
EDIT:
Finally my phone is rooted
I downgraded the firmware from wotanserver.com to 4.0.2.A.0.42
It's easy !
Then I rooted my phone by this way:

Special thanks to you guys
There is no way to root .62 for now.
Unless you unlock your bootloader.

First unlock the bootloader the SE way.
Then flash the rage kernel with flash tool and you are automatically rooted.

Why should we have to send our phone off for downgrade
Or flash it ourself when there cant be ass to fix the bugs
Sony is lazy now .
Sony's not lazy, Sony simply distribute updates. It's quite obvious that they don't allow downgrades.
Anyway, flashing a stock firmware is actually what the SE Centre would do. There's no chance you can incur into bugs or else.

But I have a Samsung Galaxy tab p1000 which is running a custom ICS ROM and everything is even faster than stock GB ROM. I think the developers community can bring ICS to work flawlessly on our little phones too
no idea why you downgraded, ut after ics my LWW is amazing, much improved battery life, performance is amazing.....even camera is improved in my opinion..
the only reason you would do a downgrade is to go back to gb, root your fone and then flash it to ics 4.0.4 to keep root....

No I downgraded from ics to GB because my phone's battery life was worsened. Also when I played riptide GP, it would freeze each time and reboot which indicated a bad performance. But the main reason was bad battery life!
i'm on ics e days now, battery is same as gb, gps locks faster, and no problems at all

Good day, XDA. I'd like to ask help with regards to rooting my Xperia S. I have recently bought this and it got shipped with ICS 4.0.4 and build number 6.1.A.0.45 and I updated its build number to 6.1.A.2.45. I have also unlocked its bootloader successfully. Now I'm having problems on how to root this. I've read certain posts regarding ICS rooting and they all state that it has to have 6.1.A.0.45 build number. But I don't know how to rollback to the previous build number. What should I do?? Please help..

Thanks for this bro! I'll try this out later when I get home. Will my data be lost?
So essentially you are just replacing a stock kernel by a rooted kernel. What if I want to go back to the unrooted kernel?

So essentially you are just replacing a stock kernel by a rooted kernel. What if I want to go back to the unrooted kernel?

Download any of the stock firmware .ftf, extract the kernel and flash it!! You are back to stock

THanks mate !!!
I've decided to root my phone... as far as I know I won't lose my warranty If I'll be rooted right?
So All I want is just root permissions... NO custom ROMS or Kernels.
I am using GB stock 6.0.B.3.184 firmware android 2.3.7
So Do I need to unlock my bootloader to root? Or I can proceed without doing that?
And could someone provide me with link how to root Xperia Sola with GB stock firmware?
Thank's
Please... I have looked everywhere.
Also found sources where people are searching for a way to root phone without upgrading to ICS with no luck.
man, i dont know is this work for u

You can root without unlocking your bootloader. Bootloader need to be unlocked only if you want to flash custom kernels or roms like cm9,cm10, miui etc.
You can try this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460
Confirmed on the first post that works on sola also. Hope works with gb also

says It's for ICS/JB.
Nothing mentioned about GB... I'll better ask If it can be done on GB as well.
Thanks
zmeu27, your suggested method looks too complicated and I don t want to lose my warranty. Thanks anyway.

My bad mate. Try this one : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1849030.
Hope this works. I don't use gb and can't tell you for sure which is the best choice, i am looking in various threads to find the best way.
You can also have GB with root permissions with a LOCKED BOOTLOADER

Thanks for your effort, I appreciate that
This one says It needs fastboot, so do I really need to unlock bootloader?
How hard is it..? To unlock bootloader, As far as I know it can be done at Sony homepage, Whats the advantage of unlocking it and do it has any cons... already know that it means lost wariaty, and that's a risk.
And finally can bootloader be locked again? To make everything as it used to be?
