Ya its out Update it using SEUS if you did'nt unlock ur bootloader...if unlocked u can find the roms in general section download it and flash it using flashtool....
Download SEUS(Sony Update Service) from here http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/tools/update-service/

4.0.2.a.0.62 arc s root

hi i gust wanted to know about 4.0.2.a.0.62 arc s root
is there any way to root 4.0.2.a.0.62 devises ?
their is just unlock ur bootloader then ! im satisfied .58 il wait for ICS to come
or you can downgrade to .42, and root. I did the same thing, and removed few built in apps that I don't use, and every morning I get 200MB of free RAM, and in normal usage I get 170MB free RAM + the phone got a lot faster than it was on .62
But I dont want to unlock bootloader and lose the warranty and OTA update

Downgrade to .42 build and root.
There are some root methods for .62, but idk. Just look and search.

I downgraded using Flashtools and didn't have to unlock my boot loader, just flash the system file, and the kernel file. and you will be fine

I did it just few minutes ago and no need unlock BL
1. Flash to 42 or 58 firmware by flashtool. I download from below linkhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1357841
2. Root ur phone by flashtool again.
U can change the CDA before use US or PCC then back to orginal 62 FW.
Cheers
PS.sorry my poor english
Solved
1. Unlock the Bootloader
2. Install Doomlord Stock Kernel 1.6 ( Pre rooted)
3. Install .62 stock Kernel from .ftf file (Root remains from Doomlord Stock Plus Kernel 1.6 even after installing .62 Rom kernel agian)
4. Re-lock the bootloader with the help of Flashtool.
5. You have Stock ROM rooted and with locked bootloader.

Download Arc S LT18i (4.0.2.a.0.62 Offical ROM) : http://www.mediafire.com/?6fs6iry9spv78mb
You can install Arc Rom on ARC S by some tweaks but it makes your ARC S slow as the default CPU speed in ARC is 1 Ghz and our ARC S is 1.4 ghz by default.
Download the .ftf file from the above link and install it through Flash Tool.
@jaipurwasi80 Thank for answer and help.
I think the problem(arc s as arc(cpu)) can fix with overlock and upgrade 1,6 or 2,0 ghz,cant it?

I have used the same file for my Arc S( LT18i) and its worked fine for me along with the Latest Flash tool. I hope you are using the .ftf file in Flashtool and your phone in flashboot mode.
OR
Go to www.wotanserver.com and download its client on your PC to Install any Offical Sony Ericsson ROM. You need to make a free account on the site and while installing you can choose to install 4.0.2.a.0.62 offical ROM.

New Arc S firmware [4.1.L.0.8]?

Apparently, a new firmware was just certified in PTCRB.
Does anyone have any info on this?
Wow, more updates!
Does anyone know what is the update for?
Sent from my LT18i using xda premium
hope this one will be as smooth as GB.
hmmm looking forward to see what new features fixes does it have. hopefully it is not a regional framework only.
looks like it is a carrier/region specific update..btw one update for arc s is on its way..
It,s the same 4.0.4 but for a carrier in the UK
I'm not have update ?
I believe it's the 4.0.4 ICS UK update for 3.
At least that's what was reported by one of our other members.
Sorry if that dashed your hopes. LOL!
How will this work as I am on 3 and my Phone has officially updated to 4.0.4

My phone is branded to `3` and to concur with xtacy above , it recently updated to this firmware .
Hmm. Does this only occur on unrooted? I am on 3 and it just says I have the latest software if I check in PC Companion?
did u flash an ftf to update ur phone or get it through update official ?

I used PC Companion to flash then ran Doomlord root bat file. I take it I won't get any official update unless I remove root (probably have to do repair to do that though right?).
I have a notification saying FW 4.1.B.0.431 Is now available. Anyone know what it is? Don't want to update if it's just a few fixes for 4.0.3.

Requesting for Xperia PLAY stock firmware

I was wondering if anybody has a LT15i 3.0.1.A.0.145 Singapore Generic stock file for Xperia PLAY? All those uploaded around the net that were on depositfiles have been removed. So if anyone has one, I would really appreciate it if someone could share with me a link or if possible, upload to mediaifre?

Thanks, but the .145 stock is the UK stock. I was hoping for the Singapore stock. Thanks though.

Maybe installing a generic rom or from the nearby areas and then try SEUS for repair? It worked with my xperia play like a month ago, like 10 minutes later I found my stock rom but I'm from Mexico so I don't know if it works every time, if it works then you can make a backup for a later restore, worth a shot maybe?

You may flash any international firmware unless you have a specific carrier for your cell phone service.
You may flash h/i/at to your ion.
Just be sure about where you are and does your carrier needs your phone to be of a specific region or it may void your warranty.:victory:

1.No,Lt28h comes fresh with ICS
2.Yes,you can
Sent from my LT28h using xda premium
I know it personal reference to use GB. You might think again as ICS had a better battery management. Just a thought.
The only thing I missed from GB is the unlock screen sound vibration. Still searching to put it back . Any good lead, anyone?
