That kernel module would need to be compiled against whatever kernel you have installed. Chances are it may work 42.

But if you're going to unlock anyway, it's pointless. It's kernels that support the workaround not roms. S1tool works even with the battery out, therefore unlocking is the better option.

There's good tutorials here for unlocking, once done insert battery and leave connected to s1tool, some power will reach the battery, flash your custom kernel of choice.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] honj90:
Thanks a lot, I found and followed this guide http://androidflip.com/unlock-xperia-phones-bootloader-without-losing-drm-data-track-id-working/ (bad english, but pretty detailed) and now my bootloader is unlocked.

Unfortunatly, I have a pretty noobish question now: where should the boot.img be stored to upgrade the kernel with s1tool? I tried the s1tool file or the SDcard of the phone, but I just get this message:

Selecct firmware packages

You can select few packages with CTRL button

without any option to actually select anything? Am I doing something wrong? (I decided to take the patched stock kernel v9.6 from this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1468043)

Until now I've flashed the roms using flashtool and .ftf images. Is it possible to do something similar now? (I'd like to use the patched Cyanogen mod, but in my limited understanding you need to flash the kernel first)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] mpiekp:
Once your bootloader is unlocked, use flashtool to flash kernel.

Click the lightening symbol, select fastboot mode select kernel to flash.

One more thing, not all kernels match all roms, however most of them have the battery patch, for cm7/9 you need to use the fxp kernel. 9.6 nightelf is for gingerbread.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] honj90:
I think I need a clarification: if you need to flash a new rom you hold the back-button while plugging the USB-cable and see a green LED, if you need to flash a new kernel or unlock the bootloader you hold the menu button and see a blue LED?

Because my problem is that I the green LED part works (for example when I flashed my stock 2.3.4 rom), but I when I hold the menu button and plug the USB cable nothing happens (after a while it shows the red LED for charging I think). ThatI was my problem when I wanted to unlock the bootloader the official way and now I see you have to do the same to flash a new kernel

EDIT: According to the thread you kindly provided :)

EDIT2: Never mind, I think this time it works. Wish me luck ;)

If you are still on Apex and not happy, I highly suggest Nova and experiment with it.

As for the GO locker, expect to find it randomly change on you if you have more than 2 different locker themes downloaded. I had it before I rooted and it would randomly change the locker themes on me once or twice a week.

I agree with the above. Additionally, the browser has engines to render different types of languages that it encounters. Some browsers are better than others at doing it.

Most likely nothing will be deleted as I've taken memory card ls out many times. Hopefully you didn't take it out while the phone was trying to write something. To be safe just turn your phone off, reinsert the card and then back on, it probably didn't delete anything.

ICS so dangerous it should be illegal

No cell maker or seller should be allowed to market a mobile phone without true hands free voice dialing. The voice dialer on my GN is a joke. If I have to look closely at the phone to confirm the correct choice and then actually touch it to dial, it's a joke and too dangerous for public safety. What are these makers and carriers thinking? :mad:

How can they release something so retro? I need and am used to leaving my phone in my coat pocket while I drive and making bluetooth calls without ever looking at the phone. I need audio confirmation before calling just like I had on my old DX for 2 years and my WinMo for 2 years before that. I don't see any apps that fit the bill either. Anyone know of a ROM that included that feature?

And what about voice dialing's older sister, speed dialing? That is gone altogether. I had forty #'s available 20 years ago. That's gotta be why Motorola hasn't gone to ICS. They have lots of customers who do business on the phone first and use it as a toy second.

I'm enjoying the horsepower of my new GN but ICS is not ready for safe mobile use and should not have been released for such use. Especially in this day of thousands of tickets being issued for handheld phone use not to mention wreckage.

I wonder why I haven't seen more discussion on these forums on this topic. I think I'll be ebaying my new GSM GN and getting stuck with another Big Red contract and a Maxx. I'm so sick of contracts. :confused:

I have never used an GN before, so not sure about your complaint. Voice dialing and Bluetooth commands in general work great on my HTC Sensation. My eyes never leave the road for me to make a call.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1679010

try the process in this thread, if you can't get it to work straight away, try using the method i used (thanks to rezo).

1 - install the ruu for 2.14.401.1

(http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?o6ox43q3taa33iu)

1.5 - if you can't do this because you already have the rom from 2.26 (but old radio etc), follow this tutorial so that you can go back to ruu 2.14.401.1

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1540952&highlight=downgrade

2 - use htcdev process (without ruu step) to unlock bootloader

3 - install cwm recovery by flashing this file (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?1rdxmtpx26201or) via "fastboot flash recovery recovery(custom).img"

4 - put update.zip (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?vycb7415nn9boct) on the root of your sd card and install from cwm recovery.

4.5 - if the update doesn't work (i.e. if you still get "triangle !" logo flash this file (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?bqni648c46r5e44) via cwm and choose the option "supervision", then try the update again.

5 - after installation and first boot (take a while) boot back to cwm and flash this root.zip (http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?dumbffr3n8igau4)

you should now have the latest stock rom, latest hboot, latest radio, and be root.

[HTC Wildfire S] Gloris:
what is the error code?

things to remember when you flash an ruu :-

you should not have modified system files (except for root)

you should have stock recovery to start with

you may need to create gold card

you should be relocked bootoader

if you are already on a software number which is higher than the ruu you are trying to install, you may need to downgrade first, using the guide posted above.
