Fuh, just got back from Singapore 2 days ago... time to update my phone now... still at B.0.62 bootlocked unrooted.
Wanna clarify something first before moving on to ICS~ hehe
1) so, that means once we root the phone at B.0.42 or B.0.58 then we can update to MK16i 4.1.B.0.587 (Central Europe) with the root access intact?
2) Also, I wonder why those with ICS stock cannot just flash the Pro to GB (B.0.42) and root it then flash to ICS again?
3) Also, I'm bit confused with Sony PC Companion and SUS... what's the difference between the two though?

Guess I will just flash back to GB instead...
4) So, I can just download the GB stock firmware (General DE) and flash it with flash tool is it? No unlock bootloader is needed right?
Thanks
1) root or not, u can still update, just that after u update, ur unit is no more rooted. why bother Central Europe version when u can just flash it with International version (thorus sets uses this).
2) why cant they? just flash it with stock GB fw and do it.
3) nothing different, but we advice to use SUS coz SPC is not stable at the moment. SUS can provide more accurate update notifications and proper download from the internet.
4) yes. stock GB (International firmware which comes with qwerty and also chinese support)
