Hi, all back to xda after quite a long gap. I have a question which i needed some help with and before any of you forum police lads say "do a search this that" , well i did search i found couple of threads but still am a little lost. So i just found out one of my old xperia neo v which i want to root and install a custom rom etc but i dunno which tool to root with and can i install custom rom on stock kernel and locked bootloader cos i found most of threads with roms on unlocked bootloader only. So i just needed some light on this. Please help out. And yeah while i did some search i found out abt this odin tool to root, is it recommended??
My xperia neo v is on 2.3.4 ginger bread
Build number 4.0.2.A.0.62

Hi guys,
Im a noob so im not sure if i posted this thread in the correct place. I recently flashed my xperia s with this ftf file XPERIA S_ICS_CE1.ftf.
I then unlocked the bootl loader via sony. i still want to root the phone but i dont know what to do now.
I have been looking everywhere but im stuck lol. I have all the drivers that come with flash tool installed and i have the latest flash tool.
Please help if you can.
Thanks
See the dev section and download some custom kernel or pre-rooted roms

Dear XDA member....!!
I new to this forum and I am a average android user.
I am using Xperia U and got to know the benefits of rooting the phone from the XDA.
i am gonna root my phone for the first time in life. I will root my droid with flashtool-0.9.9.0.
But I have some questions in my mind, which are as follows:-
1) Rooting with flashtool-0.9.9.0 will void my warranty?, if yes, than how can i get it back.
2) If in case i want to unroot the phone than how can i do the same without damaging.
I just asked this questions before rooting my device, as i dont want my device to be damaged. I am very happy to see the way all members help each other. Even the new members, like me, got full support / help which is really amazing.
Thanks in advance..!
Regards...

Search the many guides. You should find what you need with a little searching.
Thanks for reply... i went through several forums .... i have a locked bootloader with 5.0.2.. am confused with the first step...
1. Should I unlock my bootloader??
or
1. Should I flash with 4.4, then install custom recovery and then flash rooted roms??
I am not concerned of warranty, but m concerned of losing my baseband .. please suggest !!
If you don't care about warranty, unlock your bootloader, flash some kernel with recovery and flash custom ROM.

You must unlock bootloader before you install non stock Rom. Before doing this, you must have a recovery.
