I would download Flashtool if you didn't already have it and use it to root your phone. You can use it to flash ftf files without having to use the PC Companion and it has built in root functionality.
You can't root firmware .62 or above. Either downgrade to .58 or lower, or live without root since you're not planning on unlocking
that's also my trouble and i don't know why!!!!
i tried a lot of ways and didn't work so please help me also -_-.....

im from costa rica and my carrier is claro i have locked bootloader
and i check in service info, config and say bootloader unlock allowed and say no
because of this i cannot do the test point, but i install clockwork mod from
SE_Extreme_Tweak_Installer_1.8 my question is which rom can be safely instaled by this method i read roms whith stock kernel please someone give a list of rom can be safely installed whit this CWM THANKS A LOT
@efraincc24
You need to unlock your bootloader first before you install some Custom ROM ,only themes and tweeks can install in CWM recovery
And I believe any Arc can be unlocked with test point - my Japanese Arc was an early release one which wouldn't allow me to unlock the official SE way.
But with test point I unlocked with no trouble.

If you guys have the BOOTLOADER UNLOCK NO like I do. You need to get it UNLOCKED via the TEST POINT method.
It requires a bit of time and playing around OR follow the suggestion on contacting Jinx13. He will guide you thought the process and obviously for a small fee.
Jinx13 did mine for me and he was awesome!

I know how to do it with Omnius. I paid for a license and it costed me 15.80€, but it doesn't work with my Arc S (only Arc, I have to read before buying xD). If you want I'll tell you how to do it and I'll let you my account.
Thanks
hi XDA,
i Am using sonyericsson xperia pro (mk16i) i want to root it,
someone pls tell me will i get offcial ICS update using Sony PC Companion after getting rooted.
Root only? Yes
if you only root your phone, without unlock your bootloader, you can use pcc or update service to repair/update fw.
Ya sure. BTW anyone knows when ICS update is rolling out for pro.

Yea you can't root build .62 using the zergrush or super click method. To do that you need to downgrade to. 42 or unlock your bootloader.

try a different ftf... for example if you tried 55 stock, try a different one.
maybe their was an error in that version of the released stock firmware.
example for ion: their are (for example)
.7
.63
.20
if im having trouble with any .7 version (which i was)
i would switch to the .63 version (which i did)
or
See if there is any app or mod you installed recently that is either incompatible or has bugs (credit to |HBHs| Acidburns)
There is nothing wrong with .55 deodex Rom..see my battery details

I can confirm I have the same problem. I am using an Xperia SL. I flashed the stock, unrooted rom for xperia S, now I cant go back to my original firmware... The problem is still present. Annoying that my phone is now showing as an xperia S...
The problem is that I cannot receive calls and my sms messages are delayed. But I can call and send SMS just fine... Starting to think its a hardware problem.
Hali.
Please post me anyone:
adb shell
parted /dev/block/mmcblk0
print
Thanx.
I am having the same issues
I had unlocked my bootloader and set up my Xperia s with CM 9.1. As there were a lot of irregularities I wanted to revert Xperia s back to stock so I used the repair function from PC companion. Though everything seems to be back to normal but the facebook Timescape, download music info and I also think that the BE is not working (according to XDAians) but do find difference in videos and photos with BE enabled.
I would like my Xperia s back to stock with everything working like out of the box, no rooting no deodexing! Please help!
This is the current state of my mobile if it helps in helping me :-

I would suggest reflashing with flashtool, download a stock firmware first ofcourse.
Its really easy and straightforward.

flash stock rom and relocked your bootloader or relocked bootloader update via sus.
for timescape - theres already a fix for that on themes and apps section
for download music info- theres a fix for that on xperia s development section
for BE - i think its still working, cause mines working
I don't understand your first question can you be more precise?
And that timescape fix worked
And the download music info thing is for the rooted phones mine is unrooted and i want to keep it that way!

I don't understand your first question can you be more precise? - you said that you want to have rom out of the box so i said flash via flashtool or upgrade via sus (sony update service)
And that timescape fix worked - good
And the download music info thing is for the rooted phones mine is unrooted and i want to keep it that way! - but you cant have working download music info unless youre rooted, so make your choice.and i think you can uninstall superuser or supersu after that.
Ohk now i got everything working without root!
