AnonD-124866, 22 Mar 2013Hey Salman
THANKS!!!
MY PHONE IS ROOTED NOW!!!!
YEAH!!... moreif you are using gingerbread 2.34 , then u cannot directly install Xperia ice bean / zelly cream roms because both roms are based on ICS 4.04 .587
FIRST of all
u have to upgrade ur phone to official sony ics using sony pc companion
if you don`t want to upgrade to ICS from PC Companion then there is a alternate method
download this file
http://www.mediafire.com/?rhr59r4o6oarnfx
this is ICS FTF means official 4.04.587 rom !
flash this using Flashtool , flashing procedure will be Same
after up gradating , root ur mobile by following my previous rooting guide for ICS
after rooting , install xparts , this app is available in market for free
xparts is used to install recovery mode for Andriod devices , recovery mode is also called CWM (Clockwork Mode) ,after install xparts , open this app , tab to next screen , and install CWM , it will take sometime to install , before installing , make sure , ur phone wifi must be on and connected to internet
Zelly cream rom downloadlink
http://d-h.st/gQP
this rom file is in .zip formate , don`t extract it
and to install this rom , put this rom into ur sd card
restart ur phone , before sony logo appears , start press volume down key , it will enter into CWM (Recovery mode)
remember one thing , the options in recovery mode cannot be select using touch ,use volume up/down for up/down and to select anything , press center home key button
very carefully follow this guide to install zelly cream
2. Wipe data/factory reset.
3. Wipe cache partition.
4. Wipe dalvic cache under advanced menu.
5. Wipe battery stats under advanced menu.
6. Format data under mount and storage menu.
7. Format system under mount and storage menu.
8. Format cache under mount and storage menu.
9. Install zip from sd card.
10. Follow the steps in aroma installer to install the rom.
11. Uncheck "Reboot device" after installation completed and click on next to go back to CWM.
12. Now reboot your phone..
after rebooting , it will take sometime for first boot, be patient
i installed this rom , and i found one bug or u can say i experience one problem
when i try to share any file using gallery / astro or any other file manager , bluetooth option was missing ...i reported this issue to the creator
this rom on xda , but he said it`s not a bug ,only few xperia holders face this issue after installing this rom ,
u can try and check !
Regards
Salman

AnonD-124866, 21 Mar 2013Uhm Salman this rooting device working @ my build number 4.... moreSo u are using ICS , I didn`t know about that before
to root on ICS procedure is different
download this kernel
http://www.4shared.com/file/qNTvdPI6/Lt18i_41A0562_Kernel.html
flash this kernel using flashtool
flashing of rom / kernel , procedure will be same as i discussed in my previous post
past this kernel file into firmware folder and follow the same flashing procedure
after flashing use this tool to root
http://www.4shared.com/rar/AY5yprwc/root_unroot_sony_15.html
or Use previous DooMLoRD_v4_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su tool for rooting
before using root tools , Marked USB debugging and Unknown sources in ur phone

http://thepiratebay.se/torrent/7702481/
Install it into C drive ,
after installing
delete the old firmware (from this location C:\Flashtool\firmwares) if you found any
download Xperia arc Global firmware from this link
http://mediafire.com/?j5on1nw8obzejlw
Exract the above downloaded file into C:\Flashtool\firmwares
open flash tool , at the top panel click on flash sign , before lock sign
select flashmode , for next windows just press OK
unplug ur phone from pc if connected
power off ur device
press and hold the back button & attach your phone to ur pc/laptop via datacable
"don`t release back button while attaching ur phone"
color of notification will be green
flashing starts , it will take maximum 2-3minutes !
after flashing remove ur handset , power on ur phone , first boot will take some time
download this file for rooting
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=841876&d=1325678726
extract it
Must check these two options in ur phone
"USB Debugging and unknown sources"
increase the display timeout to 10minutes
install the adb drivers from this location "C:\Flashtool\drivers" ( run this flastool-drivers)
plug ur phone to ur pc , on ur phone skip the pc companion installation
click on runme file as administrator in DooMLoRD_v4_ROOT-zergRush-busybox-su folder
Command prompt opened with some instructions , all that instruction i described already
just click enter , it will take a while , during rooting , ur phone restart 2 or 3 times
When u see "done" in command windows , means rooting is done
unplug ur phone ...and look for superuser app in ur phone , if you find this app , means rooting was
successful , if u couldn`t find superuser in ur phone , means rooting is not done !
there is no mistake in this guide , i root my arc s several times from this method
if you face any problem ,then do tell me
and this guide is prepared by me , this is not copy paste material :D
hope for the best !
