Your Zips might have become corrupted or you need to upgrade your CWM.
Good Luck!
try flashing without formating system.
or flash back to stock, and then flash custom rom without formating system.

Hi there. I had a doubt regarding Xperia S in general. Can we still update our phones via PCC or SUS even if our bootloader is unlocked?

Yea you can if you relock your bootloader. The advantages you will get after relocking will be bravia engine, you can receive updates through sony pc companion but you won't able to flash any custom ROM (CM 10 , CM 10.1 etc etc) or any kernel.

Thanks to kangi26 ( Forum moderator) , this thread has been made as a sticky.
Could anyone tell me about a hack/tweak/app that change the vibration feedback intensity? Esp. the haptic feedback when pressing the soft buttons to control back-home-menu. I feel the feedback is bit too much.
hi guys ,
if i unlock my xs's boot-loader , what functions will i loose other than BE and music-info ? because these functions can be back by relocking BL again .
thanks !

AFAIK, BE, Music Info, update support via Sony Update Service and PCM... That is all... Apart from that, it opens up a whole lot of new opportunities to go crazy with your device..

[Stock][FTF][ICS Rom][acro S] 6.1.A.2.55

Hello, i just created latest .ftf file [Sony Official ICS Firmware 6.1.A.2.55]
tried on my device (acro S) and it works
Download link :
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B3s7vuhgUV5NR2ZOWVdnQ0IyTkE/edit
to flash this, you need flashtool :
1. Open flashtool
2. Go to flashmode
3. Find the downloaded .ftf file
4. Click ok if you want to wipe data and cache and untick wipe data and cache if you don't want to.
5. Hold volume down while plug in the device
6. Wait for flashtool to finish flashing
7. Unplug if it is finished, and then reboot (turn on your device)
Please hit thanks if I helped you. :good:
ask any questions if you need to, i will try to help.

all the replies starts almost the same... reminds me of how the alcoholic gathers together: "hi, i am %username% and i am alcoholic"
and in here: "i am %username% and i have an unlocked bootloader\ubl\locked"
seems its pretty clear... mostly Xperia S/SL users seem to be interested...
once JB is released and the kernel sources are out I will be starting work on DooMKernel for the msm8660 devices...
Xperia S will be supported by default as i have the user donated device with me (last year the users donated the Xperia S to me)... i was planning to extend support to other Sony msm8660 devices (Xperia ION, Xperia Acro S)...
this poll was to get an idea about the userbase and willingness of users to install custom kernels...
i will wait till the end of this week before closing this thread...
