Hello!
I unlocked bootloader of my Xperia Arc and I installed ClockworkMod Recovery and ZipIT VI on it.
After this procedure I have following: Kernel version 2.6.32.9-perf [email protected]#11, Build number: FW: 4.0.A.2.368.
When connected to PC Companion, phone asks for update permission to a newer version (the previous I had before unlocking bootloader).
Should I allow this?
If yes, will I lose unlocked bootloader and ClockworkMod Recovery?
No you should not allow this if you want phone alive.

Hi Guys,im new here and forgive me for being a noob
Ok i have flashed the new [ROM]Generic R800i (Play) 4.0.2.A.0.62 but the problem now is i cant root my phone
before this i was on stock R800i ROM 2.3.4 and i managed to Root the phone with Superoneclick
I already tried SuperoneClick (software hang), Doomlord Easy Rooting Toolkit (it says cant copy any files and reboots my Play) and tried using Fastboot method but all failed.
Help?
If you have an unlocked bootloader, flash doomlords kernel it will root you device. ZergRush no longer works on the two newest firmwares.

Hi guys... I was looking here on the forum any solution for my problem and couldnt find it out, sorry if theres a topic about it, I couldn't find it.
I've got my Xperia Arc S 2.3.4 4.0.2.A.0.62 LT18i and I've rooted it with the doomlord tool, it worked fine and looked like if it rooted normally but now I can't install any app coz it says that its not root, needs to install supersu and/or busybox so ok, I've tried to install SuperSu but when I open it, it says that there is no binary files and cant install it... I've updated its version and also tried to reinstall but no way, always the same message. =/ Does anyone know how to solve it?
Thanks.
You can't root. 62 using the zergrush root.
Best way is to downgrade the kernel to. 42 then root, then upgrade to .62 either by ota or by using flashtools.

Can enlighten about the upgrade via flashtool as I lost root if upgrade via flashtool. Usually wipe is all tick, exclude & verfication is left untick when flash upgrade root .42 to .62?

You got a unloxked bootloader
Download superuser.zip from their site. Put it in sdcard
Hotboot a kernel with CWM
find it in dev selection. Put it in fastboot folder on your pc
Fastboot code
Fastboot boot YOURKERNELNAME.IMG
Phone reboots. Press volume down on blue led.
Install zip from CWM menu
