[Tutorial] Rootear sk17i 2.3.4 .62 de manera fàcil

[Pacerme]

Hola a todos.
Llevava un par de días con mi nuevo Xperia Mini Pro (antes tenia un X10 Mini Pro).
Por error imperdonable de novato, dejé que el teléfono se actualizara a la última versión nada más conectarlo (a la .62). Luego ví que la única dforma de rooteo de esta versión de firmware era downgradear. Después de mucho buscar encontré la manera de hacerlo en un tutorial de XDA-Developers. Lo quoteo aquí, no es mio, que quede claro!

Si alguien no entiende alguna parte, puesto que está en inglés, que me lo pida, pero se entiende a la perfección.

For 4.0.2.A.0.62 or 4.0.2.A.0.69

To root these two firmware versions, you'll first have to downgrade your phone to 4.0.2.A.0.42 or 4.0.2.A.0.58. Remember: Flashing firmware may void your warranty!

Your data will be lost throug this proceed, save it using for example Android Assistant, which can backup the .apk (but the data will be lost). Save contacts and maybe sms.

MAKE SURE PC COMPANION OR SONY UPDATE SERVICE ISN'T RUNNING IN BACKGROUND WHILE YOU ARE FLASHING!!! DON'T USE THIS METHOD IF YOUR BOOTLOADER IS UNLOCKED, OTHERWISE YOUR DEVICE WILL BRICK!! (Unlocked bootloader can't do updates over the air!)

First you have to flash the 4.0.2.A.0.42. For that you download and install flashtool from here.
The firmware you can download from this thread by benji.berg or here by someguyfromhell.
Thx for sharing the firmware with us!
Download the 4.0.2.A.0.42 for your device!

After installation you open the windows explorer and go to the downloaded file. If it is a 7z or zip archive you unpack it, that you have a .ftf file.


Now you go to the flashtool installation folder. There you open the drivers folder and install the drivers.

In the flashtool -> drivers folder is the drivers installer


Now we go to the downloaded .ftf file and copy it to the firmware folder of flashtool

Programs -> Firmwares:


Then we launch flashtool


Now, to flash a new firmware, we click on the flash


In the Mode Selector you choose Flashmode and click ok


In the next step you choose the firmware and you mark wipe data and wipe cache. Just mark it like in the picture. If you are sure all is marked right, you click ok


Now you have to turn off your device. Make sure the battery is more than 75%. You hold the volume down and while holding volume down you connect your device to pc. The green led will light up and flashtool will automaticly flash the new firmware.
DON'T DISCONNECT DEVICE FROM PC WHILE THE FLASHING PROCESS!!

Here's the flashing log:

Check your log first before you restart phone. If there are no errors, go on.

Then you have to restart your phone. When it has started go through the setup assistant.

You are now on 4.0.2.A.0.42 or 4.0.2.A.0.58 firmware, so you go to next step to root:

1. For 4.0.2.A.0.42 or 4.0.2.A.0.58 firmware:

Flashtool method

This is a very easy method to root your phone. For this you download flashtool from here and install it.

When it is installed, you launch it.


Now you go on your phone and go to Settings -> Applications -> and enable unknown sources.


After that, you go to Settings -> Applications -> Development -> and enable usb debugging.


In the end you go to Settings ->Sony Ericsson ->Connectivity ->USB connection mode ->MSC


Now you connect your device to pc and flashtool will automaticly recognize it.


Now if your device is connected and recognized, we can begin with the rooting process:

For that we click on the open padlock here:


Now it will root your device automaticly

Gratulation! Now you have a rooted xperia 2011 device!

When your device is rooted, you connect your xperia via wifi with the internet. Now you start the update center (on your phone) and search for updates. It will find the update to 4.0.2.A.0.62 which you install then over the air (ota=via wlan, not connect to pc).




Now you click on download and then install it.

After reboot you have a rooted 4.0.2.A.0.62 firmware!

Una vez hecho esto, veréis que falla algun carácter del teclado (el signo ? está en otro lugar, la ç no está, etc...). Esto es devido a que no es el Iberia, sinó que es el firmware global. Pero muy sencillo, tenéis que seguir el tuto de Fantas94 de este foro y lo solucionaréis: http://www.htcmania.com/showthread.php?t=328320ç

Espero que os haya servido como a mi!

Bien, me he puesto a buscar por xda y he encontrado este hilo:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1842366

Voy a tratar de seguirlo a ver si consigo downgradear bien a la versión .42, hacer root y luego actualizar a la .62 sin que me quede con un brick de móvil. Porque me imagino que si haces root en la version .42, al actualizar a la última se mantendrà el root, no???
Si es que no y lo tengo mal entendido, porfavor, que alguien me avise antes de liarme a hacer todo esto...

Si nadie me dice nada y lo consigo ya explicaré cómo lo he hecho porque estoy seguro que muchos se encuentran en mi misma situación...

Si actualizas mediante wifi si mantienes el root, no lo hagas mediante el pc companion ya que de esa manera si perderás el root

Sólo decir que me funcionó a la perfección. Ahora veo que el superuser no me funciona bien al cabo de unos días. No sé a qué es debido.... pero el root explorer me dice que no soy root, y a mi me sigue saliendo el superuser. No se entiende mucho, la verdad.
Voy a volver a hacer todos los pasos a ver... pero tranquilos que va muy bien el tutorial, lo podéis seguir!
