I want to use Xperia CWM to install Galaxy S3 launcher on my Xperia Arc S. Will it work with my current official ICS 4.1.B.431 update without any problems.
Also after installation of xperia cwm, will i be able to install future updates on my phone over Sony PC Companion software??
Thanks in advance !!

I had some problems with the Auto Installer for CWM, so I flashed the kernel manually with fastboot.
If you want to use PC companion to update your phone, you have to flash stock kernel and firmware first as PC companion won't update phones on modified firmware.

Hi, another noobie question, I am going to buy the xperia arc s , can it be rooted and over clock like the one I did on my current xperia arc? Is the whole process from root to flash EXACTLY the same? Most importantly, can doomlord's #10 be installed too?

among these 3 which one is the best to use ?
If you're on a locked bootloader, you need to flash .42, root and update OTA to .62.
I believe .69 was specific to Germany and some gmail issues.

Hi,
Can Xperia CWM Auto-Installer (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pvy.CWMinstaler&hl=en) still be used on ICS..?
I'm running stock 4.0.4 rooted.
It would be great if this app still works..?

What about rooted Xperia U (ST25i) with locked bootloader, and B.1.10 ICS firmware.
x-Parts says it's unsupported. Why?

1. Get it from Here
2. Yes, sure.
3. ICS17 is the modified stock kernel added more features than stock one
Hold on.......
If you've flashed the ics17 kernel then you've unlocked the bootloader yes?
Then scrap off any ics rom and flash Jellybean

I need official Sony 's rom.
I see. Then flashing the 55 ftf would be best. How come you must have Sony only?

and if not how can i get it ? Root + CWM ? I don't want to unlock bootloader anyway heh heh
The leaked Xperia S jb fw by Doomlord has clear audio, so I think it will be there in the ion fw.
And of course you can install clear audio,search the themes and apps section for that and u dont need an unlock bootloader for that.
