And some tweks.
I already knew that Sony did upgrade to Android 4.1 JB, but my sony companion keeps telling me that I have the updated system.
What can I do to get the latest version?
I have to do the factory reset?
Is there another way to get the latest update?
Will I lose root and CWM?

Just flash this in recovery. But for now you will lose recovery after

Yes, flash it back to an earlier version. .58 is the latest FW that can be rooted normally
can you unlock your bootloader?

My update to 4.1.b.0.431 over air fail on my Sony Xperia Arc S. Pc Companignon tells me I tampered with software. I did some rooting some time ago but actually thought I was on the official ROM again.
Is it possible to flash back to an official ROM and receive future updates over the air again? Or did ruined that path the first time i was flashing ?
Right now im on

If you flashed DooMLorD's rom, and want to update to the official version, then you can just flash the ftf, when it is released by sony.

You wont brick the Update Service will say : " Modified system file " and wont update your phone, you can either flash FTF or relock Bootloader install with Update Service and then unlock it again for further modifications.... Still better love story than twilight
Or if you are too excited and want to try updating using PC companion then you can first flash stock ICS with flash tool and then flash the relocking ftf posted by doomlord. Then you can safely update your phone using PC companion

Yes.
Flash/Upgrade will remove rooting
I had Rooted Android 4.0 on my Xperia Ion and flashed Android 4.1.2 Firmware. It removed the Root access.
Am not sure If I've upgraded via SUS/PC Companion still I get root access.
Anyways you can flash 4.1.2 firmware and root it with DooMLoRD_Easy-Rooting-Toolkit_v17_perf-event-exploit.zip (Search in this site) :victory:

[Q] What happens when I upgrade to lollipop - rooted, locked phone

Hi, would like to know if it is possible to upgrade to lollipop using pc companion. I am currently rooted, locked bootloader, custom recovery. Build no. 14.4.A.0.157. If so, will I have a stock official rom with no root and stock recovery? Thanks. I would like to return back my phone to stock with latest updates.
There will be no root. I'm not sure what about the custom recovery though. Also I think SuperSU or Superuser won't be deleted.
in general there will be NoRoot.
And if you want to update to an official android version I suggest to download the ftf of it and flash with flash tool that would be easier
