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.

Can I inctall ICS on my xperia play with 2.3.2 (rooted locked bootloader)? Some websites say you have to have android 2.3.4 (latest update) in order to do so. Thanks

I wanna say that you would need an ICS kernel , which you would need to unlock your BL for.. and the system on your phone wont matter, since ICS isn't official on our plays your will need to instal a custom Rom which will overwrite everything anyway
Thanks

Well I did some reading and I think you will need an unlocked BL and at least be on the .42 firmware, 2.3.4 like you originally posted. I know there are a few ICS roms that work in the developer section. But I think for the official beta release your gonna wanna follow what Sony said.
Edit: looks like you have to fastboot a boot.img and userdata.img and system.img

You'll be able to get ICS without an unlocked bootloader once the official update is released, since the official releases can be made into files for flashtool.
Aside from the fact it'll be done through SEUS.

I was rooting my arc without unlock bootloader, Can I install custom ROM if my arc ICS rooted only ( no unlock bootloader) ?
Sent from my LT15i using xda premium
There are a few ROMs that work only with CWM and stock Kernel, but most need unlocked bootloader.
You can flash Stock-based ROMs with a locked bootloader.

Try with Mooded 90.1 or JJ's Hybrid Rom, are best of BL blocked
JJ hybrid is really nice

I have a similar question. I was able to install CMW recovery into my locked bootloader Arc S.
Does this means I can install custom roms using it? Or to flash custom roms I still need the unlocked bootloader?
Thanks.
Yes scandals if u installed cwm u can install few roms.You can install arconium, all versions of mooded,90.1 works very well,arconiu muiu,jj hybrid rom those are the ones i tested and i can verefy that they are working on a phone with locked bootloader.Make sure you follow the instructions or u will screw your phone and u will have to flash the original ICS rom

Well since Play isn't getting official ICS, you'll have to get a custom rom.. Try the Cyanogenmod9 stable release from get.cm

You will need to unlock ur bootloader first , if you havent already?? Wether u want to upgrade GB or to ICS or JB you will need your bootloader unlocked. Check if u can unlock it for free or not by typing in *#*#7378423#*#* in dialler.

Thank you so much for your short but informative reply !
I had already said that i installed CWM on locked bootloader (xperia SL LT26ii) !
Now will it be possible to unlock bootloader ?
Or Is it necessary to remove that installed cwm first and unlock the bootloader ?
thanks in advance !
