[ROM] Official Sony ICS 4.1.A.0.562 NCB Generic + ROOT [Update: 15.04.2012]

Search This thread
Just used Flashtool 7 to update and I have to say. Sony.... Well done its very smooth and sleek but am a slight tad upset about the music player. Could of at least given us an update on that meaning the Xperia S version. But im sure someone will port it :D. Androx and binary.... Thanks for the amazing speed in finding a solution to allow us all to have ICS.

Are you sure that's not only for Arc (LT15i) ? I have Arc S LT18i

Anyway here's the guide from your link for easier access:


-------------------

Flash three times with flashtool to make it work.


First time with these settings:

( ) Wipe User Data
(v) Wipe Cache
(v) Exclude system
( ) Exclude Baseband
( ) Exclude Kernal


Second time:

( ) Wipe User Data
( ) Wipe Cache
( ) Exclude system
(v) Exclude Baseband
(v) Exclude Kernal


Third time:

(v) Wipe User Data
( ) Wipe Cache
(v) Exclude system
(v) Exclude Baseband
(v) Exclude Kernal

--------

to me...the methop up not work...

I'm just thinking a while back I flashed with Wotan to a generic central Europe firmware. Could that affect why I can't flash??

Have you tried this method ? You will need a working CWM. You will either stuck at Sony logo screen or successfully boot up.

If you stuck at Sony logo screen followed by an exclamation mark, proceed further with flashing ftf file provided in this thread. And see whether it can boot this time.

Thanks guys, amazing:

Just upgrade my Arc LT15a to Arc S with ICS :D

SOME TIPS:

1.- After installing Flashtool 6 and upgrading it to version 7, connect your phone to your PC once BEFORE flashing to ensure the prope drivers get installed

2.- After the flashing process finishes, disconnect the phone from the PC, wait some minutes, and if it doesn't reboot automatically then turn it on manually

You guys RULE

Maybe it's to do with the drivers you have installed on your PC for your phone?

I also had issues installing.
Just re-install the drivers from the new flashtool drivers folder. Its now working nice after that.!.
