Dear all,
I think I have read, that I can flash a Xperia S Kernel on my Acro S. It will work but I will loose external SD Card support - is that right?
Thanks for your answers
Kind regards
NEVER DO THAT!!!!!!
This will hard-brick your phone even though software of S & acro S are similar.

i think that arc and arc s are too much alike that they dont have seperate forums and im pretty sure that most of whats made for arc works on arc s
I own the Xperia Arc S too and about 90 % of the MODs/ROMs/etc. works on our devices too.
Thanks a lot guys !
Lookin for the CWM recovery Mod.
If you're rooted, stock kernel and BL locked you've to use SE Extreme Tweaker.

to unlock bootloader even if you lose warranty ...yes this is possible for your phone
in fact for certain releases of these phone models :
Sony Ericsson Xperia™ PLAY
Sony Ericsson Xperia™ arc
Sony Ericsson Xperia™ arc S
Sony Ericsson Xperia™ neo
Sony Ericsson Xperia™ neo V
Sony Ericsson Xperia™ pro
Sony Ericsson Xperia™ mini
Sony Ericsson Xperia ™ mini pro
Sony Ericsson Xperia™ ray
Sony Ericsson Xperia™ active
Sony Ericsson Live with Walkman™
Sony Xperia™ S
Sony Xperia™ P
Sony Xperia™ U
Sony Xperia™ sola
to unlock bootloader proceed with the first step at Sony site
you have to flash a stock-based ROM if you do not want to unlock bootloader
this case is the same- you lose warranty
look here for stock-based ROMs
never flash a ROM not made for your phone
that means, that i CANT install cyanogenmod with a locked bootloader?

yes you get the point !
I understand your frustration
but there are plans to release an official ICS for this phone check Sony site or by PC Companion
in this case you will never lose warranty and ICS is very good for your... in fact amazing Arc S phone :good:
PS
yes you can flash an unrooted stock-ROM before you send it to service ..
how about if you have a hardware failure ?
Ok... thank you :good:
But arconium (stock-based rom) also recomendeds Unlocked bootloader.
The point why i dont have to root my phone is that i can flash back to an unrooted firmware and then i think the support wont know that i rooted my phone ( i hope so )

I like that you really want Cyanogen on your phone
me to I made a custom rom for my phone here
this rom has Cyanogen Launcher just because I like this OS
nope no chance to have Cyangoen without an unlocked bootloader
there are little chances to find one to work without S-off
It's something about base address of the kernel/protected bootloader/encryption something like this.. You have to assume the risks if you want it !
ok ! thank u very much, u helped me alot :good::good::good:

Hi all,
After searching the forums for a while I've found no solution to my question .. so I hope this thread won't be a duplicate but if it is, please link me to the original one.
My phone: NTT Docomo Xperia Acro (SO-02C) from Japan
Currently rooted using Gingerbread 2.3
Kernel version: 2.6.32.9.perf
[email protected]#1
Build number: 4.0.1.C.1.9
I wanted to apply the official ICS update that was for the Xperia Arc using the manual method by flashing it in CWD but, because the Xperia Arc is the model below mine there's a few functions that's added on so I'm worried about the compatibility with the hardware after I apply it (if I can).
I checked kernel version and build number for the Japanese Arc (screenshot of system info: http://www.chaoticshore.org/blog/image/screenshot.png )
I noticed the kernel and build number is the same but the rest isn't (because this Arc in the picture is Android 2.3.3, but my Acro is 2.3.4) so the baseband version is also different.
If I attempt to apply the update to my Acro, should ICS still be compatible?
What are the chances of it bricking if I try to flash the ICS rom into my phone?
Also, I'm aware I may lose the dedicated built in functions like infrared transmission & oneSeg.
Thanks!
I feel like I should reply, even though I don't really know the answer. But from what I have heard, arc firmware will not work on the arco. If I was you, I would not try it. Hasn't docomo pushed an ICS update yet?
If not, the best advice, never buy a Japan only phone if you want to mod it!
