Unable to install SE Backup and Restore

Hi,
I rooted my Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc which was on ICS OS. Before rooting I used the SE Back and Restore application to take my backup. After the root was completed, I copied the apk file for the same from my PC to the root SD folder (also tried updating the build.prop file and deskclock.apk as was mentioned in some other forum).
Now when I try to install the backup and restore apk file, it just doesnot install. Screenshot attached. I really need help in restoring all my data.

Flash back to v2.3 Gingerbread, restore all your data, root, install CWM, run a Nandroid backup.
Upgrade to ICS, restore.
Or use third party programs:

If you have root install titanium backup this will back up and restore from a back up.
This feature is available in pro version not sure if available in free version.

You will have to find an Xperia Phone running Stock 2.3 firmware.
Then you can use your backup and restore the contacts to the phone.
Sync the contacts with Google and Voila!
Let me know if it works!!

Titanium requires root. Helium doesn't, but you need to install some drivers on your pc and connect the phone to the pc (just to initialize the first time or every time you reboot) if you want to backup without rooting. (dunno why he doesn't want to root, root allergies?). Or he could just use the Sony Backup&Restore app. There's been some fuss about it not working, but from what I can see I can backup data of system apps just fine. Not Play Store apps, but most keep their data on the SD and you can find what apps you had installed in the Play Store.

There's threads with ICS ftf files in the General section. I don't need to hold your hand do I? Thorough steps: backup your data, open flashtool (read a guide on how to use flashtool, it pretty much explains itself though), flash the ftf that you download (oh and wipe data if you switch Android versions), reboot your phone, restore your backup.
where can i find recovery image to boot xperia s in recovery mode and kernel for stock Jellybean???
