No, but it may unroot itself when it updates.
No if you use OA update it will retain it's rooting, if you update thru SEUS then you will need to re-root and i don't think it is available yet. Don't aske me why OA keeps the rooting, it's a mystery of life....
Hello Everybody,
I may need your help!
I've got a Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc (Lt15i) with Android 2.3.4 on it. (Stock ROM)
When I got my Arc, I rootet it with the Doomloard tool... it worked without errors..
Then I had to send my mobilephone to the repair center because of a crack in the housing ... unfortunately they reset my Arc to stocksettings, like they ever did.
Then I tried to root it again, but it was not possible to root it one more time.
I installed flashtool 0.8.0.0 to flash the stockkernel once again, but rooting still doesn't work.While the rootingprocess there were errors like .. *failed to copy..* whatever..
When I watch the files on the intern phonestorage through Astro filemanager.. I'm able to see two folders which seem not to be removed through flashing or resetting to default settings etc. *root* and *sbin*
is it posssible that this two folders are the reasons why i can't root anymore?
If it's so, how can they be removed?
But may it be possible that I can only root the LT15i_4.0.2.A.0.42 ROM and not the later versions like .62 or .69?
I'm not able to find a working LT15i_4.0.2.A.0.42 Stock ROM in the internet.. all the ones I downloaded didn't work.. flashtool said flashing failed..
Could anyone post a link to me with a working .42 Stockkernel?
Or could anyone help me to root my mobile once again..
Nice greetings from Germany,
Eric
PS: I'm not very good on this area and my English is not the best, so it would be nice if you'll try to explain it very simple..
The .62 and .69 cant be rooted.
Uf you got unlocked bootloader just boot a gb kernel with flash and install root.zip (download it from superuser site)
There are many threads with roms on general thread, sticked.

Thank you for your Answer! But I don't know wether by bootloader is locked or not... Could you post me a link with such a kernel?
I flashed .42 on my arc but the rooting didn't work.. :-(
What could be the problem?
If you don't know whether your bootloader is unlocked or not, I'm fairly certain that it's still locked. LOL!
The .42 fw is rootable with Gingerbreak v1.20. It's an .apk file. If that doesn't work, try v1.10.
So technically, Gingerbreak is all you need to root .42. You don't require an unlocked bootloader just for that.
Once you're rooted, you can upgrade to .62 OTA to still keep root.
(If you really want to unlock your bootloader, head over to Sony's website. Clear instructions are given there. You can do it for free but this voids your warranty. And keep your IMEI at hand. You'll need to enter it on the website).

I rooted my Xperia SL with eroot v1.2
But now can I get the upcoming Jellybean firmware. I don't know whether Sony PC companion accepts my phone or not now.
Please somebody help. If it voids the update then please somebody help me to unroot it.
Please remember my phone is Xperia SL not S.
do this to un-root it
Note any sort of garentee / Warrenty will be voided but it isnt voided unless the company you bought your Phone from knows.
NOTE Xperia s and SL are generaly the same.
~Rooting your Xperia Phone ~
Sony companin would still pick up your Xperia S and you will still be able to update it, only thing is it would unroot your xperia
So no it doesent VOID the update.
