Hello everyone. I was wondering if there is some way to revert back to stock kernel after I install another one such as Doomlord's.
Since our Xperia phones will receive ICS at some point, I was wondering if I could have problems if I have an unofficial kernel on my phone (most probably yes), so I want to know if there is some way to revert back to stock kernel without much hassle if the need arises.
I think the kernel is flashed with the rom updates, since I can exclude it in Flashtool, but I want to be sure.
Thanks in advance and sorry for this stupid question.
Yes, there is. Instructions are stated in doomlord's thread (custom kernel for stock rom)
Basically, you flash the stock modules in cwm first. Followed by flashing the stock kernel (kernel.sin) via fastboot or flashtool.

[ how to get back to stock kernel OR older versions of my kernel (v13 and lower) ]
download the stock modules update.zip
extract the kernel.sin (or boot.img if u want to flash my older kernels) file from the stock FTF u used to flash this fimware
save the kernel.sin (or boot.img if u want to flash my older kernels) in the folder with fastboot binaries (fastboot.exe files)
save the modules update.zip to sdcard (on phone)
reboot phone and enter recovery
flash the stock modules update.zip
power down device
start device in fastboot mode
use the following command to flash the kernel.sin (or boot.img if u want to flash my older kernels)
Code:
fastboot flash boot kernel.sin
reboot phone and thats it u should now be on stock kernel (or my older kernel)

Hello People,
I have rooted and unlocked my Arc's boot loader successfully. Thanks to all of u guys.
But now I want to try ICS Roms on my Arc, I have installed CWM.
Please tell me how can i do that? Instructions are there but my arc is running on Gingerbread, So if I'll flash the ICS kernel, wont that be a problem? (Sorry, I'm a noob. Please Help)
Thanks in advance.

first you have to flash an ics kernel via fastboot. i recommend the stock kernel including cwm. then on the first boot you go into cwm and flash the ics rom
Use the the Advanced doom kernel, and then, on the recovery flash your phone with the rom.
but what about the wifi battery drain problem in stock ics kernel?
thanks guys I'm now running ICS on my Arc.

First try to flash stock kernel and then rom separately if it doesn't work then simply dont flash any stock file until you get its solution and till then flash doomkernel v14 or whatevet kernel siuts you since you have unlocked bl and then go to cwm to flash gb rom. Don't panic your phone is soft bricked and recoverable easily FYI there is soln for hard brick too.X(

Did you get all the drivers installed first before trying to flash anything? Are you using fastboot to install kernel?

Hi,
I'm a newbie to this forum. How do I flash recovery using flash flashtool?
Thanks
You need to unlock the bootloader first,then flash a custom ftf in flashtool , flash kernel with fastboot(included in flashtool) - the kernel has the recovery built in. Then flash a custom rom or keep the stock one. A good place to start is this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1836530. For the first time I would say to try Lupus GB v12 .
