What am I supposed to do now? I have been using 2.3.4 rooted all yesterday and found it not that smooth and sensitive,so I used flashtool to flash it back to v 2.3.2,and used gingerbreak 1.2 to root.
Then after reboot the battery turns to 0%,and I tried reinsert the battery \ flash another firmware\ use Sonyericsson Surport Zone to repair。 BUT NONE WORKS！！！
Is the phone damaged phsically? Really can't deal this situation 。 I tried another battery，still…… So I have to use my phone with the charger now,as I unplug the cable,the phone will turn off immediately with a 0% battery warning。

there isn't any help there...
So you have an unlocked bootloader (since you used rooted 2.3.4). did you try to reflash that firmware?
Did you try with Doomlords kernel?
Did you try relocking your bootloader and use pcc or seus to repair?
There are several things that can be done, don't panic.....
there is also a thread around here about weird battery behaviour, i'm on my phone now and can't find it for you atm otherwise I'd give you the link.

I tried all the methods .Even doomkernel doesn't work.
Now I'm searching the thread you mentioned
If you plug in the charger(USB) and remove the battery the phone should boot. Try a battery calibration app.

seems it's a complicated problem that has no fix yet, sorry guys!
So I have to wait for the fix. Need help from official.
Ok so the past week or so i have been doing research to root my xperia play. last night i decided im gonna give it a shot i used to have the ascend 2 which had the unlocked bootloader which made things so much easier but with this phone i dont.
The problem i am having is that during any root required program my phone tells me that "app" was not allowed root access.
this happened using the super one click root as well as doomlord v4 any help or ideas?

Root must work even after update..only if you use OTA update. [update it through wifi,not through SEUS,PC]

It must not.But on the other hand,i cant take any responsibility for the consequences.Its better to make a nandroid back up before trying to update.
And if you have a working wifi internet connection,then it wont ask you to use PC Companion.

just go to the list of your apps and you should find something called update service or system updater, or something like that. then, if you only have the free version of titanium, then i recommend backing up that app, then uninstalling it.
reboot your device and the update sign should be gone from status bar.
and as you have made a back up, if anything goes wrong, or you want to update, you can restore
Yes.. U just have to uninstall the app called "update centre"..
I used Titanium Back up to uninstall it

that worked! thank you very much guys!
Just remove UpdateCenter.apk from /system/app and reboot your phone. You can back it up and restore it in the event you wanna do a new OTA update.

Just make OTA update if your bootloader is locked.

Hi
I also have a question. Are all these Mods for 431 with 587 compatible?

Yes. What kernel you got to lose that you worry about? Root, yes, you lose.
SEUS is Sony Ericsson Update Service with old name, SUS(Sony Update Service) is new name.

Hello everyone!
I have a Live with Walkman (WT19i) phone with rooted 4.1.B.0.431 firmware.
Last night i tried the OTA (Over the air) update, so my superuser permissions will not be lost.
So my phone downloads the update, restarts and proceeds through the 2 out of 4 steps of the update(box + up arrow image on screen). On the 3rd step(down arrow image on screen) there is a bit loading on the bar and then my phone restarts normally.
After the restart I get the message "Could not install update software. Try again." (or smthing similar)
Any ideas???

I tried this on my dad's Ray. OTA update failed multiple times, until he updated it with PC Companion. Root was lost, ofcourse, but then I just flashed the old kernel, rooted with suitable exploit and flashed the latest kernel again. Nothing was lost on the phone (few apps got installed again, like wisepilot, facebook, facebook inside xperia and some carriers bloatware - took me 10 minutes to remove all that junk).

Some bugs fixed, generally faster, battery lasts longer.
The OTA update fails because of the root, most likely cause you moved from the system some app that's necessary.

Most probably yes, because I also get an error when trying to flash with Flashtool . . .
So do I flash back to .431? hmmm...
Well I tried to use Bin4ry thread and his script to root my device but no luck
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460
since it's asking u ..on the very first step to open Sony's app - backup and restore -which is unlike found there when u install clean custom rom.
So - I'm not saying his way isn't good -it's just furstrating that i coudlnt find this app anyway on web so went back to original room rooted -
also with other thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1742992 - Thanks to Sharaz22

thanks to him and all others that helps up on this great website-
i wanted to add this file as a comment on his thread -but the website think i'm dumb enough to even commnet.
so I hope - Bin4ry if u see it -plz add it to your thread.
So there it is for u.. ( u can send it to your mobile by using bluetooth\gmail\usb cable-gmail would be to easiest way for noobies i think to find it and install it through there..)
I'll soon to be posting here noobies guide for easy rooting your Xperia S in 30min - if u would want that.
i'm gratefull to xda developers i think it's about time that i'll share from all i've learned during all this years.
no luck here unfortunately.
Here's the message I get whenever I click to run the app on my Tipo Dual:
Unfortunately, Backup & restore has stopped.
I'm sure others have had better luck rooting their phones.

Same on my LT15i - seems there's something missing. Both versions of the APK give the same result, it just doesn't work.
i had no issues
i had no issues on using this app after running the programme i had a back up and restore file in my xps that was not their before told me to run the root file did it all works perfect i used the normal mode in the run me file from bin4ry... option 1 i think..... even for a locked bootloader it worked as after doing my own xps that has unlocked bootloader i did same steps on my gfs xps and she has a locked/b/l worked first time no worries
on the Xperia S I had no issues as well - but the S has backup&restore on board. The Xperia arc doesn't have a backup&restore app in the ICS upgrade - and apparently there's a reason why (copying the respective apk from the LT26 doesn't work either)

It is for ICS and JB only.
I've tried both the apk's from this thread on my Sony Tablet S running ICS and both give the " Unfortunately Backup and Restore has stopped working" message. Any help much appreciated.
Install the latest FlashTool from here ( 0.9.5.0 ) http://www.xdafileserver.nl/index.php?dir=Sony+(Ericsson)/SE+Xperia+S+(LT26i)/TOOLS/Flashtool
In flashtool go to Tools -> Root -> Force Emulator
Then install SuperSU and busybox again if you dont have them
@conalt- Thanks for your help. I'm trying to install backup and install so that I can root the tablet. Does your advice assume its already rooted. Apologies if dumb question!
working for me perfectly, i have rooted my xperia u (ics french firmware) without unlocking the bootloader by ur method. Thanx a lot.:good:
none of the .apk worked for me. Like most of the people, I'm getting force close

In gingerbread it doesn't works my xperia s couldn't be backuped while gb was still activa after updating to ICS it started working corectly for me.
Backup & Restore had 2 files - you guys only installed one, that's why it doesn't work in my opinion - Here is the link for Backup & Restore
