If you’ve unlocked the boot loader, and flashed a custom ROM/Kernel, there’s actually a way to return to a generic Sony ROM by using the Flash tool for Xperia™ devices. This is a Windows application that you can download from the Developer World website. The Flash tool for Xperia™ devices can only be used by unlocked Sony devices.
Please note that your device stays unlocked even if you flash a generc Sony ROM, and that the warranty may still be voided. Only a limited number of devices and ROMs are supported by this tool.
Download and read more about the Flash tool for Xperia™ devices.

Hi, I'm a noob here and in android platform.
So I bought this sk17i and it has 2.3.4 4.0.2.A.0.62
I was trying to root it fails and from what I've read around here it's because of 4.0.2.A.0.62? is there a work around with that?
thanks
I didnt try it, but an older official kernel should work as mentioned here:
http://www.xperiablog.net/2011/12/2...4-0-2-a-0-62-rolling-out-just-a-minor-update/
if you have an unlocked bootloader, you can also flash this here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1440161
thanks but can you tell me where to get the stock kernel for sk17i? I'm sorry I'm new to this I've been searching but all I could find are the ones that are modded
by the way I was trying to use modded kernels but I always get this:
FAILED(remote: The devices must be rooted first)
You need to unlock bootloader to flash custom kernel

Isn't it the whole firmware? I had seen in some forum(I think it was sonyericsson's support forum) Xperia arc's kernel (only kernel) was available. It was a zipped file, only around 4-5mb.
Isn't something like that available for our phone. I searched a lot, but didn't find it.
Won't flashing the whole firmware (in the link) unlock bootloader?

Unlock bootloader is different than flashing the fw although it is related if you want to flash the custom ROM (and custom kernel of course such as rage or krsh kernel).
Google "unlock bootloader+sony ericsson" to find the website where you can get the key to do so.
Im using stock .62 fw with unlocked bl becoz i want to use custom kernel with prerooting as .62 cant be rooted by superoneclick and i dont mind on the effect to the warranty. Somemore, cm ROM isnt stable enough.
In other words, you can flash stock ROM with stock kernel even if you dont unlock bootloader but if you want to flash custom kernel or custom ROM or both, bl had to be unlock or else you will stuck at S.E words during boot.

I currently have Paul's Rom Android V 4 and a custom kernel NAA Kernel.
Since it doesn't have camera and other features I have thought of reverting back to the original firmware and kernel..
Can I directly use Sony Erricsson PC Companion to restore everything or do I have to flash the kernel of stock again ?
Please give some vision.

i dont have that rom but minicm7, and i can tell u with this one it was as simple as open the program in pc, select repair and follow the instructions. after that i had my phone with stock kernel and rom again. dont be afraid, if it wasnt possible the program would tell u.
Thanks for your kind reply, I am going to do it but when I connect my Device it says Xperia X10 but not Xperia X10 Mini Pro, previously it used to show Xperia X10 Mini Pro ?? Confusing ? I recently upgraded the SE PC Companion.
That's just showing how much SE. Really don't care for our phones. In flash it should be fine but if your worried download sony ericsson update service instead. Btw when you flash you will have stock rom kernel etc but your bootloader is still unlocked. Just in case you thought that would relock it

Thanks for your kind reply If I keep it unlocked does it affect in any way ? I don't properly understand. I unlocked it for the NAA Kernel.

dont worry!! u can use stock rom and kernel with ur bootloader unlocked... i did it... its only useful to relock in case u have to send it to repair, as it was my case, to repair it with the warranty

for sony ericsson. not the PC companion to revert back. you should use UPDATE SERVICE to restore back to stock condition and redo all the mod again.

i tryed do it, and SEUS says that my device has no atualization and don't restore, so i replaced my build.prop for other from original rom, restarted my device, then SEUS recognized my device and restored for original 2.1 android.
another way is download a firmware and flash it using flash tools~
I have my xperia live with walkman's bootloader unlocked the normal sony way. I am on 0.62 firmware. What now?
I am basically looking for rooting and CWM installations...but the ways i find for installation of CWM require root and the methods for rooting require CWM.
Any help?
P.S. I am open for long methods...noob with the phone, not with technology
Try to use Doomlord's Root.

Well you need a kernel with pre-rooting and CWM. For that i recommend Rage kernel v2.8 you can even use x kernel. All you need is an unlocked bootloader.
When ever i flash back to stock .62 on my Mini i immediately flash Rage kernel and everything is up ready to be modded.
Hope this helps.

Go to Xperia S forum and post this question in the Q&A section to get appropriate guidance...... but before that goto XS section and search for it....... you will surely find your answer......
I'm having troubles to root my Sony Xperia U ST25a.
I just unlocked the Bootloader *yay! finaly* as I read that it is needed to root using this video: /watch?v=x65ua5x4sMc
But when the Root part comes I'm afraid to use that files because my Phone Software Version is: 6.1.1.B.1.54 and I didn't found any kernel.elf files for this version.
Can someone help me with it not using ST25i way, or a problematic way (yes, I'm noob on it) to root my phone?
I really need to use LEDs-U-CTRL
Thank you all.
NOTE: I already used Xperia P kernels but my phone died and I dont know how I made him alive again.

Use flashtool to flash a stock ICS Firmware.
Root your phone:
1.Method Search rootable stock ICS firmware and kernel. Flash the fw, root the phone with Many Android by Bin4ry. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=31545627
Than flash the kernel.
2.Method Flash a prerooted Kernel, like Munjenis's CWM kernel. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1934093&highlight=kernel
3.Method Look in the Development Index here
NOTE: I already used Xperia P kernels but my phone died and I dont know how I made him alive again.
