Hi, i'm on ics .587 and i have installed some roms like jj and pureness, supercharged v6 too, but the phone is slow and i would install gingerbread to feel the difference.
I have search in android development section,but i dont have found what i search. I would a gb rom with lockscreen and themeui like ics.
It' possible ?

It is possible, I suggest Gin2Ics theme for now, but I'm currently modding it to look almost fully like ICS.
Here is a current preview:

If your bootloader is locked, flash .42 with Flashtool, reboot-tick "unknown sources" and "usb debugging", root with Flashtool (unlock icon), boot it and update to .62 using Update Service application.

Copypasta from another thread:
For UNLOCKED bootloaders ONLY:
DOWNLOAD: http://ul.to/tz3hl0yu/Recovery.rar
Steps:
Flash FTF via Flashtool.
Enter recovery with the command: fastboot boot recoveryARC.img
A recovery menu will appear in your phone.
Sets scripts assets: ENABLED
Flash RootXperia.zip via recovery. You have to copy RootXperia.zip to the SD card previously.
Reboot device.

hello everybody
now I'll die following up my phone if not back again
first I apologize for prolixity but I wanna explain everything I did coz I am a newbie
yesterday I could update my phone "Xperia arc S" to officially ICS
after installing cwm I felt that my phone reboot many times before accessing
the home then I root the phone
then I've applied reboot mod [MOD] Reboot Options in Power Menu [4.0.2.A.0.42]
firstly I don't notice that may not work for ICS
and also I've applied camera mod ICS-Nordic562-CamExtreme+5MP
NOW !!!!!!
when I reboot the phone it reaches to the first of the bootanimation and reboot again (looping)
I thought that maybe the framework became broken and I have to back ICS's
so I've applied ICS-Nordic562-FrameworkMod-PartA(odex) but not success
then I've applied Xperia ICS framework
also not success
in trying to fix this big problem I've applied [ROM] Official Sony ICS 4.1.A.0.562 NCB Generic + ROOT [Update: 15.04.2012]
but in the end of the flashing it sent this error
RROR - ERR_SEVERITY="MAJOR";ERR_CLASS="MEMORY_CLASS";ERR_STATIC="HASH_VER";ERR_DYNAMIC="Final data verification failed";
and when booting up after Sony logo it shows me this
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
then shutdown
also when I tried to re-update it using PCC it didn't detected the phone "your phone not supported or something like this"
please help me I'm so broken
Flash again the ftf file ([ROM] Official Sony ICS 4.1.A.0.562 NCB Generic + ROOT [Update: 15.04.2012]) to other usb slot.. just follow the instruction on how to flash it.. and Don't forget to check the "no final verification check" and your phone will be good again..
thank you so much it worked nice
but I wanna know what I did that causing the problem ??
also after flashing my phone to ICS I rooted but the bluetooth won't work after root
I used to root DooMLoRD_v1_Xperia-2011-ICS-ROOT-emu-busybox-su
during the operation it detect the phone then reboot and tell me to disconnect and reconnect after I disable and re-enable USB Debugging
(looping)
so I rooted with SuperOneClickv2.3.3-ShortFuse but the bluetooth failed
what I have to do ??
and I apologize for annoyance
Np bro. You can try to install cwm(old tool will do) then perform factory reset in (cwm). If the error persist, try to install again the ftf and use the rooting tool posted by DL and make sure its for ics..

I have a question... Whats the proposite of "no final verification check"
Flash tools will make sure Rom has installed and that all is ok.
With ics this can cause an issue something to do with the library's and scripts.
By unticking the box flashtools will not report error even tho there is no error

I would download Flashtool if you didn't already have it and use it to root your phone. You can use it to flash ftf files without having to use the PC Companion and it has built in root functionality.
You can't root firmware .62 or above. Either downgrade to .58 or lower, or live without root since you're not planning on unlocking
that's also my trouble and i don't know why!!!!
i tried a lot of ways and didn't work so please help me also -_-.....

whats the best custom GINGERBREAD rom available that has ice cream or jelly bean features, feel and look?
when i mean features i mostly mean the swipe noification, camera from the lockscreen and the look pretty much.
im SOOOO SICK of ICS on my xperia arc s ... 512mb is just not enough. it seems very fast when you have a fresh installation but after you install your apps and start using it it really slows down until it can barely be used.
i remember when i had gingerbread and had it supercharged it was soooooo fast ! with more free ram and no hickups.
so yea i want to go back to gingerbread.
now i have mooded ics custom rom rooted, locked bootloader and stock kernel.
thanks in advance [=
List is not so big, Jellybread, Ultimate, Arconium 8.2 are for unlocked & locked BL, for unlocked BL there is Xperia S 9.3 which IMO has the best UI, but requires unl. BL.
P.S. as you can see in my signature, I'm on stock GB (.62), rooted, supercharged and Xperia S Big Pack 3.1 installed (theme with mods).

This is how it looks to me, swipe notification is there, no camera from lockscreen, no volume button music controls, and that's what I'm planning to add (and theme it better)... but need to learn how.

Sure, flash .42 (CE - Central Europe) is the one I used.
Boot, tick unknown sources and usb debugging.
Root from flashtool (zergrush method).
Open Update Service (or Update Center, purple icon) app, refresh and update OTA to .62 (using wifi).
And there you have it, rooted .62 .

Reflash your rom, wifi will solve.. İf you want to root without unlocking your bootloader you downgrade to latest ıcs and root it via eroot, then install a recovery.. After this you can download doomlord's prerooted 4.1.2 and flash that

No need to downgrade to 4.0.4.. flash jelly bean .211 normally then use this root method

So after trying some more new roms out I cant get back to stock rom bootloader unlocks and locks ok however I cant root phone
I have been following many different guides and this one worked.
Download XperiaS_LT26i_6.2.B.1.96_KernelOnly.ftf | 6.33 MB
Download FlashTool from below link, if you don’t have it.
Download flashtool-0.9.11.0-windows.exe
STEPS for ROOTING :- ( Below steps are for root 6.2.B.1.96 firmware Xperia S )
Workin on both Locked as well as UnLocked Bootloaders.
Enable USB Debugging and unknown sources option on your phone before proceeding. Do not use other kit version except V18.
Download Flashtool, Open it. Flash the “XperiaS_LT26i_6.2.B.0.211_KernelOnly.ftf” file on your Xperia S. It is the kernel of an old firmware of Xperia S which was rootable.
Reboot your Xperia S after flashing. Connect to PC in USB Debugging mode.
Do not forget to close FLASHTOOL. CLOSE FLASHTOOL , before proceeding next step or you will get serious error.
Extract the downloaded “DooMLoRD_Easy-Rooting-Toolkit_v18_perf-event-exploit.zip” file and run the “runme_win” file.
Follow onscreen instructions to root Xperia S and once it is rooted, device will reboot. Verify that you are rooted, run SuperSU app.
Now switch off your Xperia S. OPEN FLASHTOOL.
Now you need to flash “XperiaS_LT26i_6.2.B.1.96_KernelOnly.ftf ” file in order to get back the true kernel of Android 4.1.2 6.2.B.1.96 firmware of Xperia S.
After flashing, disconnect the phone from PC, reboot it and your Xperia S is now rooted and we are done with rooting Xperia S 6.2.B.1.96 firmware.
However Now trying to repeat to fix and get rooted and other stuff back on phone doesn't reboot and add super user.
Before I got the following
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Now it just goes though the commands like it is doing something says done but does not reboot or show the popup like that.
Anyone got a working guide how to lock boot loader up proper n good think already done that and checked and says bootloader unlockable YES as as posed to unlocked
