there shouldn't be any problem. and no, you won't lose your root.
when i applied the 4.0.2.a.0.62 it restarted and there is error appear in bar (couldnt install)

Did you removed some system app's?
no , just used link2sd app to move all app files
i think its may be the problem
Solution
If you have the .42 and you want to get the .62 root you have to do this:
- Flash with flashtools the .42 original room
- With flashtools root your phone.
- Start updating via OTA to .62
If you have 0.42 and you root this with superoneclick or other that not be Flashtools you wouldn't get your .62 root OTA
aaah thanks , i just want to update to .62 so i be ready to receive ICS when available Nothing else :S
but i think i will be wait when availble official to Arc (not Arc S) i will flash it via flash tool
I recomend to you installing ICS version of ARC S and then flashing the Doomlord kernel for setting the correct CPU clock. (only for unlocked bootloaders).
But... well ok, if you want to wait to the official version you can see very good changes from .42 to .62, better battery life, more stability at the system running, etc...
the feedback of arc user says that is was some problem with touch due to different kernel even with arconiume ICS rom
i think i will try unroot we zurg brush (winch i root first) and root again with flash tool )
and try to upgrade from ota
oka
i found link for .42 but its 150 MB unlike the other link which is 250 !!
i found the first link in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1330314 topic

It's never easy to really brick an arc than a galaxy tablet, had the mainboard replaced. flashtool really a very good tool to revive an arc.
Calm down then try this 1 by 1

Hi, Janto
For me, just flashing a custom rom it can't block u getting into cwm. It may stuck with the Kernel's logo/bootAnimation but should passes the CWM notification first.
If you could provide info(Name & version) of your kernel & rom, it would be better for us to help you bring your expensive device back to life:fingers-crossed:
My suggestion is:
1. Use Fastboot to flash a good kernel (Anyone from the development section), then CWM, thought you know how to do a flash again
2. If above step not works, download flashtool (The top thread in the development section) and a complete tft files, then do a flash using the flashtool, this should give you a brand new phone.
BTW: you r BL or not? search for X-parts if u r still locked.
When i Factory Reset my phone (R800a) its still have Signal but my Sim Card is not detected ! When i restart my device sign " Please insert your sim card and restart phone " . And its have no any Carrier ( how do i fix it ? Plz help me
P/s : i try to flash this ROM but nothing happens , it still not detect my sim card
You might be putting in your sim card the wrong way. If that's not the problem, just use flashtool and use an ftf to go back to stock or use recovery and back up if you made one. If you want to install custom roms on an r800a, install a r800i firmware using flashtool first. I have an r800a and I can tell you that you will get bootloops unless you install an r800i firmware.

so. can u give me the stock FW for R800a ???
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1589399
Try any r800a or r800i firmware here and update with pc companion if it's too outdated, I recommend http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1692663 The enhanced .58 one is good if your going to install a rom over it as soon as possible (the language and keyboard settings are a bit weird). Good luck.
Hi, today I tried to update my Xperia S to 6.2.b.0.211 using this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2302631
But I got a brick which put my phone on a bootloop like the sony logo wouldn't disappear. So I used PC Companion to repair it and now I'm at 6.2.b.0.200 without root.
What I'm asking: Is there any way to root/flash a pre-rooted rom or whatever to have my phone rooted?
Thanks in advance.

Hello guys, u dont need pre-rooted rom or use the old .200 rom anymore
just get the .211 stock rom and u can root it!!
Seems the .211 rom is not available in many country, including Hong Kong (where i'm from)
u can just flash the .211 rom with the ftf file with flash tool in your XS
u may download it here : http://goo.im/devs/DooMLoRD/xperia_s/LT26i_6.2.B.0.211.ftf
u can flash it in without wiping data or cache (while the pre-rooted rom will wipe data)
then root it with doomlord easy rooting kit : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2327473
hope it helps

Here is very easy and wonderful way !
1. Unlock the bootloader ! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1560613&nocache=1
2. Download flashtool and install it. http://androxyde.github.io/
3. Download doomkernel and SuperSU-1.25-Busybox-1.20.2-UPDATE.zip - 1.43 MB http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2305591
4. Now flash the doomkernel via flashtool and restart the phone. Now when you see cool doomlord logo, pressing at 'volume +' you will get CWM recovery and pressing at camera button you will get TWRP recovery. choose any one of them and flash this 'SuperSU-1.25-Busybox-1.20.2-UPDATE.zip - 1.43 MB'
ALL THE BEST !

I'm not sure if it's region free but i can instal in on my Hong Kong version Xperia S so i believe it can be installed on yours
i believes most languages are here too
but there's only xperia international keyboard by default
seems other keyboard can still e added in setting
but the Xperia Chinese keyboard is missing and i have to flash it myself
if u dont like this version, u may look for another ftf file

i dont think unlocking the bootloader is required as it is a stock rom
btw, doing this will make u lose your bravia engine
u can root official . 200 FW. Your device must be UL, flash with fastboot doomkernel v5 and then you have CWM and root.

Your phone is Acro S (lt26w) or Arc S(LT18i)? Please check that because either You are trying to flash wrong ROM or are in wrong thread.
