After the update of Android 4.0 Beta ROM is available for Xperia arc S, Xperia neo V and Xperia ray, and according to the information around the world, there are many apps working for this update which surely need to be tasted by the users of Xperia Phones.
But, before install this Beta version of ICS, there are some things that you must know:
1. You should be an advanced developer with extensive knowledge in how to install, and switch between different ROMs.
2. You must be using Xperia™ arc S, Xperia™ neo V or Xperia™ ray, running the latest Xperia™ software release (which is 4.0.2.A.0.42).
3. You must unlock your phone using our Unlock boot loader service, and agree to all the legal and warranty conditions that apply.
4. Also, if you unlock the boot loader, you will not be able to download and install the final Ice Cream Sandwich software upgrade for Xperia™ phones.
Here are the steps to download and install the Android 4.0 Beta ROM on your Xperia Phones (Xperia™ arc S, Xperia™ neo V and Xperia™ ray.):
1. Make sure your phone is running the latest software release, which is build number 4.0.2.A.0.42. If you can’t upgrade to this build number, it is not possible to try the Ice Cream Sandwich beta ROM for Xperia™ phones.
2. Go to unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com and unlock the boot loader of your phone. To do this, you must read through and agree to all the legal and warranty conditions that apply.
3. Download the Ice Cream Sandwich beta ROM for Xperia™ arc S, the Ice Cream Sandwich beta ROM for Xperia™ neo V or the Ice Cream Sandwich beta ROM for Xperia™ ray depending on your phone model.
4. Extract the downloaded zip file to your Android Fastboot directory. For example: ..\android-sdk\fastboot\Xperia_arcS_ICS_beta.
5. Open a command prompt and go to your Fastboot directory: ..\android-sdk\fastboot\
6. Flash the three beta ROM files one at a time using Fastboot. Use these three commands (replace the folder name if you are using Xperia™ neo V or Xperia™ ray):
• fastboot flash boot ..\Fastboot\Xperia_arcS_ICS_beta\boot.img
• fastboot flash userdata ..\Fastboot\Xperia_arcS_ICS_beta\userdata.img
• fastboot flash system ..\Fastboot\Xperia_arcS_ICS_beta\system.img
7. Once done, please reboot your phone.
Now your phones should be working on the Android 4.0 Beta ROM.
