Downgrade from rooted stock ICS to GB help - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

Can someone please link me to downgrade from ICS to latest GB with root?
Thx in advance.

Just flash the latest gingerbread stock rom .ftf. You may find it in the thread by someguyfromhell in the stickies or in the development forums
If you have the right ftf for you device, flash it using flashtool

first flash ftf via flashtool and then root by the tool.
any other rooting methods will also do

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.
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!

[ROOT] Firmware 6.1.1.B.1.54

DON'T USE ON XPERIA U, XPERIA P AND OTHER XPERIAS. KERNEL FILES PROVIDED ARE ONLY FOR XPERIA SOLA!!!
This is the same method used by naruto20007 in [Root - Locked Bootloader] Xperia P 6.1.1.B.1.54 so thanks him, i've only packed the two kernel ftf files for sola.
This works with LOCKED and UNLOCKED bootloader
I assume that you are running 6.1.1.B.1.54 firmware
You need:
1. Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry LINK
2. 6.1.1.B.1.10 and 6.1.1.B.1.54 stock kernel ftf files LINK
3. Flashtool LINK
INSTRUCTION
1. Flash MT27i_6.1.1.B.1.10_KERNEL.ftf with Flashtool and reboot
2. Root using Bin4ry's method
3. Flash MT27_6.1.1.B.1.54_KERNEL.ftf with Flashtool and reboot
After flashing the 6.1.1.B.1.10 kernel your icons can turn black, don't worry and go on.
If you have unlocked bootloader you can also root by flashing TheBrainsKernel

No, you're going to flash only the kernel, not wiping

[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....
