[Q] Noob Question onf going back to stock - Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro

Hi All,
sorry if this has been asked before,
but I don't have any experience with Sony Experia before.
I have the device Experia Neo L (mt25i)
it already install with turbo kernel( support multi boot)
and a rom in mmc
i would like to go back to the original sony ericson stock rom & kernel.
I've read up and has download the flash tool from http://www.flashtool.net/download.php
but i haven't found the stock rom & kernel, appreciate if you can point out the original rom & kernel.
also i noticed that in Experia model you have unlock bootloader etc.

Thank you

I have Xperia Neo (MT15) and am on currently on CM 10 (FreeXperia) and want to try the Smart Xperia Rom. Do I have to follow this steps since I am on unlocked bootloader and the devices is already rooted:
Neo ( MT15 ) users:
for Neo ( LT15 ) users, download Neo V MT11 .587 ftf below, flash it via flashtool ( system, userdata, and kernel )
after booting, flash Neo V 562 kernel via flashtool
Root via Doomlord's ICS Xperia 2011 Rooting toolkit
after rooting complete, flash Neo V ftf .587 kernel again
Can someone please give the steps which I have to follow in brief to change from CM 10 to Smart Xperia ROM?

Thanks for this ROM Dani! I like it! :good:
Couple of questions though (since I'm a noob to all of these custom ROM stuff):
1. I'm assuming you're going to fix the xLoud issue in a future release, but in the meantime, how would I apply the fix you mentioned in your post?
2. Is there a way to remove the on-screen Back, Home and Options buttons on the home screen? I'm on a Neo V with the Xperia T Home Launcher and it already has physical buttons for those, so it's kinda redundant to me.
Anyway great job on the ROM!
xLoud fix by me :victory::highfive:

Did you create a backup of your stock rom before going for cyan??
If u did then just restore the backup & then flash a stock kernel. You'll be fine.
Press thnx if I helped..

Rooted but locked bootloader runningon steroid Gb rom than i flash Viper V 6.0 top on it than it stuck at sony ericssion logo..
Tried flashing stock rom with flashtool but it fails... with some error

If your mobile was neo it surely stucks because neo system partition is less compared to neo v..
Rom size is too big that's why

The issue is steroid gb is gb rom
Viper is ics rom.
For ics rom to boot u require an ics kernel.
And u using stock gb kernel.
Flash stock ics kernel via flashmode. Google it ull find the ftf file for .587 kernel. Keep in mind u jst need .587 kernel ftf not .587 whole firmware ftf

I know, but the list above conatains only releases starting with 4., so I suppose these are not the original stock 2.x versions. What I'm looking for is the SW was on this handset when it was originally released (JB)
Thanks
