if ur bootloader is locked, u shudnt hav any problems using seus..

juz make sure ur battery is above 50% or better full..

btw, hav u flashed ur phone according to the steps correctly?

i was on rooted 2.3.2 and cut off a lot of unwanted apps..... found that i couldn't do OTA to 2.3.3.... so did flashtool based on the generic firmware in XDA forum. didn't do a wipe data and it caused my phone to hang. i decided to reflash with wipe data now... root it with gingerbreak and OTA to 2.3.3. Success! i find that some stock apps are missing e.g. camera. so i off/on my phone and most of stock app returned (...weird). i find that i can't get GO Contacts/Messaging to work and AppInstaller is missing tongue.gif

anyone encountered this issue?
*
sori, cant help u with OTA as i didnt do it on my phone.. if u wipe data, meaning all ur previous data is gone right? so if u install back again all the apps, it shud b working fine now..

i wonder since the xda developer don have xperia neo section exist
while it happen in forum.lowyat
in case there is new ROM or way to handle the phone.
where should we post it?
*
if u didnt unlock ur bootloader, its not a prob to update to the latest version as seus and pc companion and OTA shud b working fine with ur phone..

b4 u decide to unlock ur bootloader, make sure u know wht u r doing as unlocked bootloader is intended for those devs or someone who interested to do a custom rom for the phone.. unless u know how to make a custom rom, or there r support for ur phone from the devs outside there, its unnecessary for u to unlock ur bootloader..

even for the arc we hav a lil support from the devs who r interested to make a custom rom eventho the bootloader is unlocked.. fortunately jerpelea from x10 is interested in arc n decide to buy it n play with itto make a custom rom..

I agree want you mention. Actually i wan to be a super user and delete some application which i don need. I still feel happy with SEUS or OTA.but i'm lookig way to root it without unload bootloader.

custom firmware is another option, but currently there is no developer intend to make for xperia neo
*
If u wan to root it without unlocking ur bootloader, thrs no way except to wait for ur region firmware to come u..p with OTA..

or waiting those developer to find the way to root it.

if using the xperia arc, downgrade to 2.3.2 after update 2.3.3
and ginger break it then update via OTA

if fall to xperia neo, i can't find related firmware to downgrade it

Yeap, thts the process to do if wanna get rooted 2.3.3 w/o unpocking the bootloader..

As for ur case, u nid to find the older firmware to downgrade it.. N not all firmware can b rooted via OTA... Iia only global generic OTA works..

for xperia neo currrently have 1 global version only.

don have older than that

so i guess there is no way for u to get rooted for now unless unlocking the bootloader...

n for u to gain root after unlocking bootloader u also nid to know how to make pre rooted image of ur firmware..

For those of you that are considering UNLOCKING your Arc's bootloader - this poor Malaysian guy did just that and this is what SE Malaysia did to him as he put it "as if he's a criminal'

Hey friends, this is Malaysia not some Western country. Think 3 times.

Ultima, you have an unlocked bootloader. Any comments?  smile.gif

*
unlock bootloader comes with a risk..

unless u know wht u r doing n willing to take the risk, dun simply do it juz bcoz u think its cool...

as many ppl giving u an advice, read carefully n thoroughly wht u r doing b4 proceed with it...

for the OTA part, its not totally our fault tho.. SE shud prevent us who unlock the bootloader owner from updating the updates if it bricks the phone..

good job on SEUS n PC Companion, but not on OTA lol..

their statement previously is also blur, stating tht us cant get the updates if we hav a modified software..

but wth, b/l unlock without modifying a software also cant update, n they didnt even says sorry, instead they giving an excuse blablabla..

well at least we r lucky thr r devs who is interested in making a custom rom for us..
