The only difference is you have to use fast boot to flash Kernels
Wrong forum too

Your thread is now in Q&A after being moved yesterday from the Development section where you first posted it.. Root if ya need don't if ya don't.
yes , you should
whats the easiest way if there is one any help would be appreciated
ZergRush exploit by doomlord.
Look in dev section for easy tool.
One click.
Sent from my LT15i using XDA Premium
Definitly worth it.
Just use the ZergExploit like explained before, make sure you flash the FXP kernel (look up how to put a boot.img) and then put the new FXP047 image (7.2.0 at the time of writing this).
I had the same reluctance at the start as you, it seems complicated, and you actually need more research. Make sure you read the "noob" posts on how to root, they actually give you all the infos you need when put together

It's normal to hesitate but not when you get the correct steps to do it in a clean and harmless method.
Try this tutorial that worked fine for me.

I am asking this question here on the NOOB Q&A section and not in the respective forum due to the fact that I am a NOOOB. I have to bother the servers and make a NEW THREAD about this dumb question. Here we go, I want to install Official MIUIv4 on my ARCLT15i from the following thread::
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1565194
since, I cannot post in the development section, I have to ask HERE how to install this on the LT15i as I am not sure how to do it and how to get the ICS BETA on the phone. If anyone from THAT FORUM can let me know, I would appreciate it. Thanks and I am sorry for creating yet another useless question.
**WINK WINK BEE-OTCHES
First thing first;
Is your phone rooted ?
Unlock boot loader ?
Do you know how to flash image/kernel/rom ?
If you answer NO to any of the questions above then I'd recommend not to touch your phone yet but read through the forums and learn all about the things I posted.
I'm also a newbie but I took time to learn. All these flashy roms are quite attractive but believe me nothing worse than a bricked phone.
Good luck
Oh yea dude. My phone is rooted and unlocked bootloader and overclocked 1.5GHz using doomlord kernel and running sinmiui 2.3.7 android. i just don't know how to go about getting this version of MIUI V4.

The boot image is in the zip file which you have to flash in fastboot mode either in command prompt or using Flash tool.
Btw for LT15 see this post. The same but rather simple.

Iv made a previous thread asking a question, but i just want to get this over and done with
im currently on CM7.2 baseband .56 (Gingerbread) and im wanting to go to Arconium 4.0 ICS, now this is where my question comes into play
in order for me to flash arconium it says i need to flash bb72 i cant be bothered right now upgrading to stock ICS 4.0.4 which i cant do through pcc cause i have a custom rom
can i do this... flash the kernel > flash arconium 4.0 ICS > then flash bb72
but if i do that will i still be on bb56 on arconium ICS and would that lead me to bootloops? this is a question im taking seriously cause if i get bootloops i cannot be f*cked going back to stock
EDIT: can i use bb56 on arconium 4.0 ICS and if so could i just flash bb72 after i have installed arconium?

go away mate, FOUFC
you could edit your old thread..
But yes everything shuold work like you said. Dont forget to flash the libs for the baseband
libs? sorry i havn't started on bb's yet
Every baseband patch need their own libs.. Look at the threads from there you get the baseband there should be the libs too
i really have no idea what u r talking about
You have the baseband file which you have to flash with flash tool.
But there are more files you need. These are called "libs" or libraries
theyre in a flashable zip which you flash through recovery.
Look at this thread. There are the ftf files for the flashtool and for the bb 72 the libs.
The libs for over baseband you can get by another thread.
But you dont have to update the baseband for ics. If everything is working dont flash the neweset.
I have bad wifi issues after i flashed bb72 and cant fix them even after flashing my old bb again

I'm assuming he's swearing but I must admit that's a new one. Haven't heard FOUFC before. Care to explain what exactly that stands for?
Plus, just writing thread closed doesn't really close a thread till a Mod does it.

No one think to tell him to flash the full ftf then just install arconium? A lot less hassle.

It does help if you actually search for what you're looking for. Luck for you there are plenty of spoon feeders here.

OP didn't specify bootloader status and the bootloader would have to be unlocked to flash a custom kernel doesn't it? Great link if he has unlocked bootloader

Nope, you didn't. You're not the first to say they've searched for something when they clearly haven't and you certainly wont be the last. I came here to learn, not be spoon fed and rehashed old information that I could have found myself by searching.

You should look into xda University
Lol, Google "how to make a ROM" and you'll see just how many times its been asked and answered. See my Arc guide, I've posted links there too to help.

If u want to learn it the selftaught way - begin with customize and tweak stock ICS / GB ROM with gaining access to the build.prop file and all system folder parts of your phone

Hey guys. I own the Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc S . I have rooted it and installed cyanogenmod 10.1.
Now the cyanogenmod is nice but it still has a lot of bugs and it lacks in a lot of aspects in comparison to the stock rom.
Now i would like to go back to the stock rom which was ICS 4.0.4
Is it possible to downgrade from 4.2 to 4.0.4 ?
if yes then a complete tutorial would be highly appreciated for my problem . Thanks in advance.
Use flashtool to go back to stock ICS..4.0.4.. You'll need the .587 ftf file.
If you wanna try a custom ICS rom.. Flash an ICS kernel.. Then the rom..
See the stickys and general section.
