So i have SE Xperia Arc S LT18i,how should i root it?
Should i do this like on Arc LT15i?
Or there is something special?
Edit; ignore me.
So can anyone simply answer me?
for me too please
I m in too
Until there's a dev that gets an arc s and can be bothered working out how to root, I'd say we are stuck

I dont know much about it....but you can try flashing a new or the same firmware! Its just a thought! If you dont have backup of your data then do not proceed with this! Wait for some expert to help you! But if you have backed up all your data then there is nothing wrong in flashing!
If i helped you, hit the thanks button!

There's a serious problem mate! You posted in the wrong section! I could have helped you with the arc or any other xperia phone. But here I'll try my best.... You got root on your device? You can use flastools to flash a new firmware! You should go to the s 2 section or google about flashing new firmware!
If i helped you, hit the thanks button!

I know the bootloader is locked.
Anyway
I bought my mobile from amazon.co.uk:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B004UK6H6W/ref=oh_o02_s00_i00_details
I tried flashing a new firmware but it didnt do any thing! The lock was still there! So only thing left is we gotta unlock the bootloader...dont worrl we will relock it again! But you will loose track id (can get it back from market/ play store) and the thumbs up stuff for Facebook in music player! I will try to get them back...all of it! So you ready to unlock the boot loader...its the only way from where i see it!

Unlocking the bootloader will do a factory reset (for security purpose ). So this should solve the problem. But if it doesn't...i got other stuff too! Dont worry!

Acro S, S and SL pretty much share the same stock rom. However from what I believe the rom was edited a little bit to make it compatible with the devices it works on. I would be working on Acro S rom on SL after i get a hold of an SL. But it depends. I got no budget now. I would make Customizable roms if I can get a hold of all 3 Devices FTF files from the first stock rom till the most recent roms. I only have the Acro S first till the latest stock rom. Only thing I need now is people helping me to get back ups of STOCK ROMS from SL. Xperia S i prety much have an Idea of where to get it from.
Very good bro
Take your time do some quality work
So, what is the final verdict? Can I take the CM10 for Xperia S and just flash it? Would it work? I am planning on finding out tomorrow anyways

Did it work???
Is it better to stick with a stock Xperia SL or to root, unlock and install a custom kernel and rom on it? Just wanting to know because I may soon want to do it or maybe not, depending on how it is from your experience.
i have already rooted it but don't know what to do next?? Are there any custom roms available for SL?

I think it is the same.
The only difference is the processor, so give all Xperia S mods and tuts a try!

Hi, it's my first time rooting android and after a while I think I'm gonna have to ask. I have an Xperia S (LT26i) running GB 4.0.4 Build 6.1.A.2.55. Yesterday I managed to unlock the bootloader but I have no idea about how to start rooting it. I did however try the Bin4ry's root exploit but it just "runs forever", is there any way you could help me with this? (like, suitable for noobs you know..) Thanks!
