Why don't you go ask doomlord or make question in doom's thread to get answer quickly ? If I were you, I'll backup via CWM mod and reflash fw .62 then flash doom kernel v19. Finally, wipe full and restore. Your current data will be saved for sure.

it is the same like me
install cwm, then choose the apply update from sdcard, then locate the file from your card.
Simple as that.

I am trying to install a custom ROM, first thing is to flash .587 ftf. But after i flash it successfully using flash tool, the phone reboots and returns a lot of "Unfortunately the process. blah blah blah has stopped" the phone becomes unstable and i get a boot loop.. I have done this before (flashing .587 ftf) i will work like butter. But i dont know what is wrong now. When i was using Omega ROM, it suddenly got strucked and reboot several , times. Now i flashed a GB ftf. Can anyone help me, how can i make the .587 ftf work..? what is the reasom behind that? And even i tried to relock the boot loader and update using sony pc companion. It ended up in a failed error message.
Please HELP
thanks in Advance..!
No, you do not need root to install kernel.
No, you do not need to flash stock ICS/GB if you are going to install full fresh custom ROM.

Are you flashing the arc S or arc ftf. You need to flash the Arc S version as it gives u more internal memory needed by the rom.

in step 3 you must uncheck some thing in flashtool but i forgot them ...
instead you can use unlocking your bootloader and then flash stock pre-rooted kernel and install SU on your rom...
(its very easier than your way)
Maybe you can try the one click root... It's there in general section...

If you're going to use Stock ROM
if you flashed back .587 ftf, you probably left all .sin checked. You should have unchecked kernel.sin, No final verification unchecked.
Reflash custom kernel. If still no root, flash flashable zip in SuperSU thread
If you're going to use a custom ROM
Just flash respective kernel, wipe data,cache,dalvik,system in CWM and install rom. No need to root .587, flashing .587 is for increasing partition only(in case).

If your BL is unlocked you should download Rom and kernel that you want
rom must be .zip and you should place it in sd card
kernel must be .img or .elf
and kernel Wi-Fi modules must be .zip and you should place it on SD too
then you download QuickIMG tool and place the kernel in images folder of it
then turn off phone and hold menu key and plug usb cable
LED would be blue
then you open QuickIMG and choose your kernel and flash it
then turn on phone
when the led is blue you should press Vol down key
then you enter CWM
do:
-wipe date
-wipe cache
-mount and storage > format/system
-advanced> wipe dalvick cache
then install zip and choose Rom
then install zip and choose Wi-fi modules
reboot...

CM10 you say then you need a custom JB kernel, like Fusion,Lupus or nAa kernel, or whatever kernel you want.
You don't need X-Parts. There are many tutorials out there. But I'll just help you.
Download kernel and paste to pc, in any folder.
1) Flash .587 ftf
2) Flash custom kernel (with phone off, hold menu button, connect to pc. Go to Flashtool, then click the thunderlike button, select fastboot mode, select kernel to flash, point to kernel file)
3) Boot, then repetitively press back button to boot to CWM. If lupus kernel, it is volume down.
4) wipe data,cache,dalvik cache,system
5) Install ROM

It seems half of the problem has been solved
I downloaded LT18i_4.1.B.0.587.ftf sized 373.97Mb and I flash it ...
now I have (Android version : 4.0.4 / kernel version : 2.6.32.9-perf / Build number : 4.1.B.0.587)
and the root has been removed and I also can't access recovery mode
but I didn't like the version because it is slow and the Wi-Fi network disconnects a lot
I want a clean Rom/Kernel/recovery for Xperia arc s (I prefer Performance and extended battery life)
I want the easiest way because I don't want to fall in mistakes again
Thx ...

Hi, noob here, first post on xda, hope this helps
i had the same problem, trying to intall superjellybean 6 and fusion 5.4 kernel from the rom thread on my unlocked BL rooted ArcS with XperiaUltimateHD and Lupus kernel. Got stuck on fusion kernel logo after flashing it following the guide in superjellybean thread. I think the problem come from flashing a JB kernel on a ICS rom.
Mine is working now (notice that is unlocked BL), this is what i've done
flash via flashtool the LT18i_4.1.B.0.587_(1254-2184), then oneclick root the device again using Eroot_v1.3.4 from this thread.
using flashtool flash a lupus ics kernel for having the CWM back.
reboot to CWM recovery and do the wipes and flash the zips Superjellybean 6 and google apps, on the ics kernel. the device still won't boot.
from flashtool reboot to fastboot mode and flash a JB kernel (i used Lupus jb).
reboot and good luck

Raminta is correct. The reason that you don't have any issue on the gb rom is because the kernel installed on your phone(locked bootloader) is compatible on the rom and the rom might be mod to work for locked bootloaders.
But the thing on the ICS rom is that you will need to flash a ICS kernel. You can only flash a kernel once you already unlocked the bootloader of your phone.
