never say never!
ICS will be available on more devices day by day, so the devs will find some ics exploit. Just need some time.

40 min to midnight in Portugal and it's been wild!

Finishing an android application (to be announced soon) for both phones and tablets and hitting the refresh button every 10 min. to see how condi is making progress...

May de Source be with him :D

condi: we are all waiting for you, master.

Thanks a bunch Condi!

It got to about 12.30am and I figured I should just wait, and, of course, I wake up in the morning and you've got it all figured out! Cheers! :)

If I may ask just one little thing more...
Is it possible for you to add Australia to the region changer? I hastily changed my region to US last night, thinking there would be a 'revert to backed up' function, but there isn't. (Unless there are ZERO downsides to mine being a US device, as it's just wifi)
Any help would be great, thanks!

Yes, no problem, I just need Australian data, region.zip, build.prop values.

Now sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep... good night all :)

Condi,

Thanks for your great work, though my update process appears to freeze when the recovery section has completed and failed (like it's supposed to), I ran the program a second time and got as far as flashing the custom.signed.zip over, when recovery fell over while writing files to vendor0 and presented this message:

assert failed: mount("ext4", "EMMC", "dev/block/mmcblk0p8", "/datapp")
E:Error in /sdcard/custom_update_signed.zip
(Status 7)
Installation aborted.

Any ideas?

I'm following the instructions on the page, but I get an error whenever I attempt to decrypt update.zip. Is there a step that I'm missing? (There seems to be a step 1 missing. Extra press of the enter button?). I feel sorta like an idiot.

Code:
[*] build.incremental value is too high,
reapply 'rescue-backdoor'

You need to run the rescue backdoor option in the tool, that changes the step-value from 12345678 (i.e.) to 1.

Hi all, I am new to this forum. I patiently waited today for AIO v2.7 and ICS thanks to Condi.

To my suprise i was guttered to find I had to have a previouly rooted tablet.

I have 3.2.1 with the dreaded kernal10. :mad:

Is there anything possibly to get ICS.

In thread "[DEV] ICS rooting for kernel 10 users"by Nesquick95 he said "Now let's wait for ICS and hope that Sony's one will be built on a "good" kernel". I believe this is a good kernal reported as "2.6.39.4" by kurtis.austin2 on "Sony tablet on ICS =)".

So is this possible to somehow root ICS when OTA is avaiable in my Country????

Thanks in advance from all kernal 10 users. :)

    O K. Got ICS prerooted :)
    Just as I promised weeks before release !!! :D :D :D

    Gonna release S.onyTable.S v2.7 with ICS custom-make today.

    Everybody who has got root on 3.2.1 and havent updated already,
    DO NOT UPDATE! In ICS exploit which we used is locked also (like in kernel #10 etc.)

    got it! i only have to wait then... let's suppose tomorrow a rom with 3g comes out.. how much time will you need to edit it and give us the new version? (sorry for the impatience!)

    To be honest v2.7 is ready, but now I've got to make tests before release,
    its got to be tested :)

    Now I need to downgrade to honeycomb lol :D

    WTF!!! Android system recovery (Rev.29)<3e> !!
