How to root Ray - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

Welcome. I have to root for Xperia Ray 4.0.4 build .587 unlock bootloader.

I don't really get what you want to do (please ask questions in full sentences... ). But if you want to root/unlock the bootloader check my guides (link in the stickies and in my signature)

[Q] NEO Rooted Standard Firmware?

The ability to unlock the Bootloader and flash a pre-rooted standard firmware has appeal. The Arc has plenty to go at - are there any for the Neo planned?
hello, the question has been already asked, and no solution.
If you want to root your neo with unlocked bootloader and original firmware you can install DooMKernel (Overclock+Root+Recovery) or apply this zip file (made by Bin4ry) from a recovery.
Couldn't find that question elsewhere...
Anyway, thanks but I might stick to a stock unrooted should that ever come about. Or maybe not...!
Also, this thread is suppossed to be posted in the general section.
On that note, thread closed.

I just want to root the phone. I do not want to upgrade to ICS.
You are on stock GB (gingerbread),
To root GB, you may require an unlocked bootloader.
Search for GB rooting guides in the general section.
Sent from my Xperia U using xda app-developers app
Better upgrade to ics and root..

for anyone who stumbles upon this thread in future.
I unlocked BOOTLOADER by here:
http://androidlegend.com/how-to-unlock-bootloader-sony-xperia-sola-mt27i/
Then I flashed this kernel as mentioned here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1688169
It is just a shame that the kernel from this guy is sooooo old. But it works with few errors on my .184 build​
There are so many complicated methods that reading them just waste your days. I hope someone told me this so simple links.
I did get the root device in just matter of minutes.
