Both PCC* and Flashtool are viable options to flash ICS.
*If ICS is available in his region

that flash took you completly back to stock so no more root access and all the bloatware has been added...is the flash to android 2.3.3 or 2.3.4????

Well I ask this because 2.3.4 is unrootable unless you flash a pre-rooted kernel so if your BL is unlocked then flash a pre-rooted kernel and install CWM recovery then install your prefered ICS ROM or I would suggest JB then flash their kernel and you should be good

I dont understand why u say "i'm using STOCK ICS"... what is STOCK ICS? Since Xperia Play never had an OFFICIAL STOCK ICS.
Anyway if u are having problem, probably u have Markphyton rom.
Advice: if u want a perfect ICS rom stable with 100% touchpad, use CM9.1
This is simple, just flash This 2.3.4 enhanced version, turn on USB debugging mode, then use SuperOneClick or flashtool to root it.

This will not help with your headphone jack issue, you will have to buy this adaptor: http://www.amazon.com/Sony-EC250-Headphones-Adaptor-1249-0456/dp/B009HW15UG/
One question to make it clear. I have stock firmware Untouch no Root and No bootloader unlock. and updated to 4.0.4 Build 6.0.A.2.50 using official PCC. I want to know is it possible to downgrade my phone to Gingerbread using flashtool without unlocking bootloader?
Yup u can do this.
Just download the firmware from
Xdafileserver and flash it:thumbup:

I dont think you can. You need unlocked bootloader. Maybe im wrong

Post in the right section. questions goes in to Q/A section. Read rules before posting.
Absolutely NO, locked bootloader's always stuck with the default kernel.
Technically yes. But only from official firmware ftf files and using flashtool

you'll get bootloop if you install custom kernels

So is it possible to flash the default kernel and firmware of the Xperia SL on the Xperia S since they have the same hardware
Sent from my LT26i using xda app-developers app
Hi,
I m new to the forums.
I have a sony xperia s with a locked bootloader but has been rooted.
i have cwm installed on it and currently have XZXperiance_2 installed.
I would like to go back to the offical ICS 4.0.4 Rom.
The phone says it is still logged as 4.0.4 but with different system on it.
I would like to go back to the origional system because of the official JB Update in the next few weeks.
If some could help me step by step it would be much help =]
I have set it back to factory settings but doesnt go back to the origional system i dont think i backed up the old system =[
Any help would be much appriciatted,
Many Thanks
Dan
Use flashtool from development part of Xperia s forum.
Download it, instal drivers, download ICS 4.0.4 generic world and flash it via flashtool.
