hey madfysh.... please help me...

i have unlocked my bootloader. i am a bit new to rooting. please tell me how can i root steep by step. i am on stock ICS 4.0.4 build no. 4.1.B.0.431
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] known2u:
4.0.4 update

i m on rooted 4.0.3 updated from GB through pc companion.

updating to 4.0.4 by flashing the kernel and not through PCC what would i loose? what about root privilege...how can i retain that after updating??

do rooting through doomlord's kit changes the customization number in build.prop...because there is different number on the back of fone :confused:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
Read first post carefully, then ask which part of it you don't understand.

1) you can't go to 4.0.4 just by flashing it's kernel. If you do OTA update root will be preserved. That is if update for your cdf/si is available.

2) rooting process doesn't change your build.prop.

Number in build.prop is CDF, number, on back of phone is SI number. Two different, yet related numbers.

I am new to android hence asking this...

need to root my neo v recently update ics 4.0.4

Kernel version 2.6.32.9-per . do not want to put any custom roms just want to root to get full system access to increase the brightness of the screen.

Any help in this regard would be highly appreciated.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
All instructions are in first post, for people with locked bootloader there is link to post with instructions.

Read them carefully and ask which part of it you don't understand.

I think they are understandable.

Hi Madfysh,

I am in Unlocked BL now. I had already rooted with ur method when i was in Locked BL. Now i unlocked and lost all settings and root as well. So, if I understand right, i should download the recoveryNeo.img, move it to tools of the Android of SDK, connect phone in fast boot mode and in the command window, go to tools folder and type , fastboot boot recoveryneo.img.

Am i right? Correct me if im wrong.

hi madyfish,

since you are around, i think you can help me

i was on stock ICS 4.0.3 (rooted) with a locked BL

when the 4.0.4 update rolled out, i flashed a custom rom

now, if i want to try the official update-

should i use the official update using SE-PC Companion (if yes, how) or should i flash one of the few roms here based on the official update?

which one would you recommend?

Thanks :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
Depends on custom rom, and how will pcc/seus recognize your phone.

Anyway, just flash ftf from first post.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] BombayBoy:
Depends on custom rom - for the kernel (nandroid restore)?

if i flash the ftf from the first post - will it be like official ics 4.0.4?

PCC/SEUS recognizes my phone as neo :p

Thanks :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] known2u:
Thanks madfysh

You cleared a confusion...is there any way to do OTA update manually even if update is not released for my SI number?? i just want to flash my regional fw or global version.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
Sorry man, I don't have idea what you on about.

You said you used custom rom, and asked will PCC work. Then I told you that it depends on rom you used. now you talking about kernel..nandroid..

If you flash ftf, yes, that is like you have flashed it with PCC or SEUS.

No, there isn't. You need to wait.

And make a choice, will you wait for your region fw, or will you flash ftf from first post. Choice is on you.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Bhgprox:
Hi, i flashed my phone with a custom latin america 4.0.3 rom, but now my SI rolled at sonys site and id like to update to 4.0.4 trough pc companion, what should i do?

reflash with recovery tools at pcc and then update through it?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
You can go back to your original fw if

1)you know your old CDF number(the one in build.prop), since we don't have list of SI numbers but we have list of CDF numbers

2) have CWM(nandroid) backup of your original fw

3) know your region and find CDF number in here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1604559

the customized europe 4.0.4 ROM has PT-Br language?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] coolSERAZ:
Hey i have rooted 4.0.3. i have got the 4.0.4 update but its not installing successfully most probably because of the root. so is there anyway of "unrooting" the device?

should i flash 4.0.3 AGAIN? or if there is any technique to get 4.0.4 and retain the root?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
It's ok to discuss about it here, but, unfortunately I don't know solution for your problem.

Not many people have this problem, at least not that I know.

I remember that with 403 also there was problem with face unlock. Friend flashed same .ftf as I, I got face unlock option in security, he didn't. He needed to flash gapps to get it, strange indeed.

Not 100% sure as I'm on custom rom now, but I believe it does have that language. As far as I know, all fw's have same language pack.

Do you have CWM recovery installed on your phone? If yes, remove it. For more info how to remove it, read this: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=26771166&postcount=10

btw: root is not a problem, CWM is.

Hi to all the great people in this forum and thank you for your great work and help.

you guys helped me so much since i got my Xperia NEO V.

Any how, Ny question (as you can guess from the title) is:

What is the difference between those ftf files?

How would I know which one is the best for my phone or for my region?

I'm from Israel, Is there any chance there is one that has Hebrew fonts in it (Hebrew Menu).

I locked bootloader and if so I would have had to fix the camera used in this 4.0.3 4.0.4 if someone can help me thank you immensely!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Munrubenmuz:
First of all thank you to all who contribute to this and the other threads on this website. Absolutely fantastic.

Let me apologise in advance for a thick as a brick question which I'm sure has been answered elsewhere. I have lurked about this forum for a couple of months without posting but I am keen to get cracking now.

I know this may be a stupid question but could someone explain just in bullet points what I have to do to unload or uninstall the bloatware that came with my Xperia Neo. I've looked at the 1st page of this thread a dozen times and I can't work out what is essential and what can be skipped or even what half of it means..

I'm just after a 10 step or whatever guide that I can then research.

Something like.

1/ Unlock bootloader.

2/ Backup

3/ Flash something or other

4/ Etc.

For example I can't make head nor tail of this from the first page:

Root:

How(for unlocked bootloaders): flash or hotboot any kernel with CWM and flash superuser... zip from attachment.

for hoooootboot you can use this kernel: 4shared.com/file/LMJWQkxw/recoveryNeo.

flash: fastboot flash boot name_of_kernel.img

hotboot: fastboot boot name_of_kernel.img

????

Again apologies in advance if this has been answered elsewhere but I can't seem to find a step by step guide. (Do this first, then do this second, etc..)

Thank you.

Thank you.

Ok I know this is confusing but I will try my best. Firstly you will have to root the phone, I can't help with this since my phone is a Neo V. You can try this http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/41119 After rooting, go to Play Store and download Titanium Backup. Go into the app and delete the crap on the phone.

For more info on rooting, fastbooting (a.k.a. flashing kernels for overclocking etc) and Clockwork Mod, check out this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1409269

By your first post I take that your bootloader is still locked. In first post of this thread you have link to post how to root your ICS while on locked bootloader: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=26798415&postcount=141

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Munrubenmuz:
Thank you for that and I apologise if this is a noob question. According to the Sony website I can 'officially" unlock the bootloader. Is there an advantage in doing this or should I just try and root the phone with a locked bootloader.

I'm not after any mad modifications to the phone or any overclocking or anything like that I'd just like to unload the bloatware.

Locked or unlocked, which is better?

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] zmbutt:
if your main concern is to remove the bloatwares then you don't need to unlock the boot loader, just Rooting will do the trick,

but if you still want to unlock the boot loader, then go for unofficial way (XDA way).

Firmware = Kernel + Rom?

I have a question.

Is firmware = kernel + rom? I means:

I have upgrade from GB (Rooted + unlocked BL) to ICS by 2 steps:

1. I flashed kernel "[ICS] Suave Kernel v6" (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1708532)

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Madfysh:
This is a bit off topic here, but you didn't say most important thing, which bug's you have.

Always a good(read: must to do) thing, when crossing between GB and ICS, is to first flash .ftf then flash kernel, then flash rom.

Wifi issue neo v

Thanks a lot for the files,etc. the rooting technique worked. but there is a wifi issue.

i downloaded the 4.0.4 ics update ota using seus. it worked. the phone seems quicker and all. but the wifi is not working properly.

i go into the room right next to the router and the quality is extremely poor. it either stays at the lowest level or else disconnects continuously.

the wifi symbol has two arrows one at the left and other at the right. sometimes the wifi symbol reaches two bars and freezes!

the arrows dont come or only the left arrow comes. i thought it was the router problem but it works well on my sister's android phone and also on a tablet. 4.0.3 had a much better wifi quality.

can anyone help me please? hell i even go next to the friggin' router and still sometimes the problem comes. its very frustrating. i tried restarting the phone, removed and reinserted the battery but its still not working.

You are free to try.

Just one thing, when you flash neo v 4.0.3 kernel your phone won't boot ok, but it will be enough that root toolkit inject files for root. So don't be afraid if screen will be black, just make sure to enable debugging mode and enable unknown sources, before flashing neo v kernel.
