We can use the NEO L one.

But then you'll need an unlocked bootloader to flash the Neo L kernel, right?

hi
Ars-s & Arc Users USE This method : Install MIUI On Locked BootLoader ( LT18i ; LT18a ; LT15i ; LT15a )
beacuse MIUI use Official Kernel.

Installing MIUI or ICS Rom on stock kernel without the camera inberted and pad bugs would be awesome!

Yea it works even when you are rooted.
To change the region you gotta change the serial number of the device firmware in the build properties To the location where you want to change . The serial number is in the format XXXX-XXXX.
Or you can do it the easy way using flash tool.

If you use the latest version of flash tool you don't need to have ab unlocked boot loader.
You can always unlock your boot loader if it is allowed.

first of all,ota is not available for ics!
Sony said that in a blog post!
Like gire.prasad said, an OTA update for ICS will NOT be there. You would need to use SEUS or Flashtool or any other flashing programme.

newbie

Sorry but am looking for advise.
I have used sony erricsons site to unlocked the bootloader and it flashed the rom.
i have flashed dooms kernel and using AOKP.

800at successful ics?

love my phone. but it's almost 2 years old. my phone is stock but rooted and it runs excellent since i've cleared all the bloat.
i've got a build 3.0.1.b.0.270
android version 2.3.3
is there anyone happy with stock ics on their att play? if so, does everything work 100% (wifi, text messaging, internet)?
sorry for this newbie post to the experts but would appreciate help. thanks.
Atm there's no stock ics ics firmware... Most of them are modded roms from the original ics beta or ported from other devices... But first, UNLOCK YOUR BOOTLOADER... If it's still locked you won't be able to flash any custom kernel or Rom...

To install ics you need to have your bootloader unlocked. Other than that your set to go with everything else.

On Krisdees Sony ICS Beta everything works great battery life with lupus 720 p ICS +GB......unlocking your boot loader is your primary objective...IdK if your being a r800a makes things different...as I am r800i
Sent from my R800i using xda app-developers app
R800a and R800i are the same thing, it doesn't matter which in one you have... unlock your bootloader via zergrush and i recommend you to try either the express rom or the markpython rom, both have NXT looks... if you wanna try something a little different, try de hybrid rom by krisdee...
Have to pay

As far as I know, you have to pay to have your bootloader unlocked if you have the r800at. I recommend Jinx13, I got it done in about 10 minutes.

You can not unlock your bootloader for free from the sony website if you have the R800at model.
