I'll download all these files and host them on my fileserver, no need for box or mediafire stuff imho :)

I'll let you know when it's done you can use one link in stead of well all these ;)

Some download links are very very slow, so it will take a while others will go faster, i rename them and zip them with 7zip to save some bandwidth :) ill post the correct url here when done :)

Oh btw, i'm not gonna download all the system.img, it takes me ages to make a proper folder structure for that, so if you need something uploaded let me know :) i'll do the stock roms first.

As far as I know you can't create a backup of the ROM on the actual phone, unless you're rooted. You create the .ftf files by updating your phone on the PC so you get the files from Sony, then run them through flashtool.

ICS from Thailand is available!!

Hi all,

ICS came to Thailand (SI: 1257-0599 and 1257-0600, Cust: 1257-6923) a few days ago. I successfully updated my device to ICS yesterday. I already packed the firmware and uploaded them to:

If anyone has idea about how to mount ICS system.img, please let me know or share them to us in this thread so that @Yakandu can update the quick guide in the third post.

In addition, I would like to apologize for my big mistake about the .73 and .75 firmwares. I found later that they are not Thailand generic because before I updated to .73 via PPC, I had cross-region flashed .71 Lebanon firmware to my device. Therefore, my .73 and .75 firmwares in the first post are actually Lebanon generic. (Cust: 1257-8080)

I have uploaded the actual Thailand generic firmwares with help from two of my friends in Xperia S Thai community in Facebook by sharing me their blob_fs. I can't correct my mistake without them. Really thank you to them. (Sorry for not mention their names here, I'm not sure if they allow :P)

Is there any other way to download some of these?

I was trying to download O2 GB firmware but had no luck at all with rapidshare.

It says about 2 hours to download and always gets interrupted half way or so.

I think I actually prefer the solidness of GB rom.

As O2 is taking time to update, would they iron out some of the problems we are seeing with ICS, or are they only there to add their own bloatware?

If latter, they are very lazy, taking such long time!
