[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] boxkillor:
well i already did like 5 factory resets... maybe a good info is, that i actually cant update aswell :(

I described here what happened:

"Hi Condi, do i have a missing region aswell? Heres my log : recovery.txt

The Problem : I was on 4.03 (no update or such) and rooted. after playing with your tool, i wasnt able to purchase any apps anymore on playstore. after that i made factory-reset. Still rooted i wasnt able to purchase any app after recovering with titanium. so played with your tool again and accidentially killed my root....

Now everythings messed up : i dont have wifi nor 3g ... and besides i think i must have a new region cause i cant update my device with the german ota update 4.03 r2a (it says the topic headline of this thread)

i realized that i have some backups in my condi tool folder : like orinial region.zip etc.

side-info: i did a rescuebackdoor. how can i use it? -- or will it even help?

thx in advance

Edit: i know its showing the us-update in log, but same happens with german ota"

heres my log from that post.
