[Q] Can i use PCC to return to original ROM ?

Hi,
i have Xperia ARC phone with:
1. bootloader unlocked
2. blendmiui v09 kernel.
3. [ROM] Avicho MIUI For Arc [2.1.13] installed
The phone is working well but can i use PC companion to restore the phone to the latest ROM available for ARC ?
Thanx

You can't upgrade/restore the rom from se pcc if your bootloader is unlocked...
If you want to return to stock rom , just flash the ftf files found in the forum with flashtool..
You can also relock the bootloader and then update the firmware from pcc.

can i use this to relock the bootloader?

Xperia arc S update problem

Does enyone have idea what causing this problem
Thanks in advance

If you have unlocked your bootloader, re-lock it
take the SIM card out of your phone and reboot phone

My bootloader is unlocked, but won't let me install update. How do I re-lock bootloader??

Download Link
Flash this ftf file via flashtool from the download line --> www(dot)mediafire.com/?g1b5j712ajx4yjd (not allow to post outside links, sorry!)
And your bootloader is locked again!

No need to relock bootloader to get the update. Download complete update 4.1.B.0.587 from here, put it in "C:\Flashtool\firmwares" (if Flashtool is installed in "C:\Flashtool") and flash it using Flashtool. I did it without problems. Use the "flashmode" in Flashtool, I selected "Exclude FOTA" option, so only baseband, system and kernel were flashed..

Help?
i relocked my bootloader to update to 4.0.3(latest). But now i want to unlock it again to flash a custom kernel and rom. is it possible?

[Q] Original Rom xperia arc s

I mount a prejudice currently cm10 (with unlocked bootloader), but I would like to go back to 4.0.4 Xperia, as when I bought .. I know that to do this I have to install the file. ftf from flashtool, I have to clear something to avoid having the FOTA brick unlocked bootloader? where can I find the original ftf file?

Flashtool don't need to relock bootloader. But if you want to relock bootloader, there are tutorials on this forum that show you how.

for the official update via pcc question it will inform you there is and update but you will not be able to install the official firmware through pcc even if UB and stock you can only update flashtool ftf file or with cwm flashable zip
yes you can relock your bootloader with flashtool to update the official way.
yes it will work especially if you are stuck in bootloop or brick as long as you can boot into flash or fastboot it
