Hello all

Just got Xperia Pro today, bought it from Terry (x132755) , AP set red.
wish to root and upgrade it, but for now I like to get used to the phone in its original condition first..

couple of questions,

which u guys recommended to do first, root the android or upgrade to ICS ?

since mine not ori, how to upgrade to ICS ? I assume I can't use PC companion right ?

thanks for the answer

plz add me into the Xperia pro owner smile.gif

I still waiting for somebody to answer my question on #209 but got another question on rooting, since I'm using ICS now, can I still use test pen method to unlock the bootloader ?

On camera

Press setting,select shutter sound,off

Can't find select shutter sound option in the menu, in GB at least I can change the shutter sound.
probably different type of FW ?

I know Hong Kong set the shutter sound cannot be disable due to the regulation. Maybe flash to generic rom?

wow nice guys,
i saw how you all modify your phone,
well im gonna wait 1 years
as im using xperia pro original from thorus,

i like the phone design very much
too bad the battery run like water, my phone never last more than 2 days,
and finding the xperia pro mk16i case is like searching needle in the dessert ,
1 question is the xperia neo case and xperia pro mobile case can be use ?
*
u mean the silicon made case that wrap around the phone ?
I don't think so because xperia pro has hw keyboard and neo is purely touch screen type..
I tried xperia play case and it don't fit too (even though has similar outline)
