just overwrite will do ..

u can update it via sony pc companion or sony update service whether it's ori or ap set ..
or u just can flash the ftf file from xda using flashtool ..

better upgrade to ics first before root ..
if u root and upgrade to ics it'll be useless since upgrade ur rom will delete all your tweak ..
including root ..

btw ,
welcome to the club bro !!

i don't see so much different from cm9 fxp126 rc0 ..
but , still got few problm ..
h/w kyboard lighting don't work ..
fm radio not work ..
camera panorama not work ..
hdmi not test yet ..

other than that is awesome ..
maybe this release is more stable than before ..

yup ..
it already an issue since fxp125 ..
neva try other b4 ..

dunno when will be fix ..

lol ..
u use custom rom or stock rom ??

if custom rom just use patch ..
stock rom can't ..
if u patch it'll cause bootloops ..
IINM ..

lol ..
i just did it with my friend's phone ..
just patch it ..

weird ..
the rom is stock but not odex ..


btw , its live with walkman ..
i think it's same with u too if the patch is working ..
because if ur rom is odex n u patch it ..
u'll got bootloops ..

CORRECT me if i'm wrong ..

yeah ..
i just did all the steps ..
but i can't open activitymanagerservice.smali because it can't find the services.odex on the rom ..

instead i use this to patch the services.jar ..
http://android.mimic.ca/

and it works ..

that's make me weird ..
stock rom is should odex right ?

you don't say ??


i'm noob too you no ..

yeah ..
i know about that ..
i mean not work is not work as it should ..

i already put the brightness button at the status bar ..
but i'm not prefer this solution so much because had to lock screen first to turn off the backlight ..
only use it for emergency though ..


hope it would fix it soon ..
coz i don't like so much about the on screen qwerty keyboard ..
so , i want to use h/w keyboard instead ..

or do you have any apps suggestion for phonepad ?
i used to it rather than qwerty ..
