I have just made a zip of the ICS FTF for a friend.
My questions are: is there one already and I just wasted my time?
If not, does anybody want to test it as I won't be able to check on my friend's phone for another two days.
I've removed some apps and rooted it.

There is none,as far as i know,n is it for st25i or st25a..please gimme the link,i'll test it n report back..also.does the recovery works even after the update..??
I haven't added the kernel, so I think the ROM would have to be flashed in recovery first, then flash the stock kernel in Flashtool. I could upload that as well if needed.
I could look into adding the kernel, I think it's just a few lines in the update script. It's unlikely to have recovery though. Don't know how to do that yet.
I'm not familiar with adding kernels because I've only tried with a phone that can't flash kernels in recovery.

As far as I know it is a, but I've changed the build.prop to i. I read as long as you don't flash the baseband it should be OK.

Not working for me..stuck in bootloop..
Did you wipe caches and data before and after, and use the correct (stock ICS) kernel?

Does flashing the ROM, removes the CWM ? Is CWM and ROM are inter related ? I'm using Xperia P and I installed CWM after alots of googling. Now planning to install MIUI in my Xperia P.
No flashing a rom does not change recovery version at all

No it does not. Though some roms have a slightly modified version of cwm.
Press thanks if I helped

I recently installed a JB ROM using CWM, But I've found a better GB CFW that better suits my needs, how do I flash it? The CWM gives me an error?
Sony update.

Won't this brick the phone? or brick because of the fact the bootloader is unlocked? same goes with the custom recovery?
No using Sony update for rest. ROM original.

Thank you, this worked.
Hello, I unlocked my bootloader and now PC companion tells me that my system is modified and can't update using this tool. Sony told me I would need an update.zip, ota, or a third party method. Any help would be appreciated as I would love to update my firmware.

Use flash tool and download the new firmware ftf file at xda z ultra forum and update it.

I want to use custom kitkat rom on my xperia sola. But the problem is I cant flash kernel. I dont have a pc. I found so many kitkat custom rom on sola dev treads. Is there any other way to flash kitkat kernel without a pc? Eg. Flash kernel with CWM. Sorry for my annoying question.

Kernel can be flash via Flashify

Flashify is not supported by Sony phone.
