more information needed...!
Dependes on stuff like which version of android are you running, have you already unlocked the bootloader or not.
I would suggest you unlock the bootloader
well here is the guide

It worked for me...
Depends on the Android Version you are on if JB then use Doomlords technique and if ICS use UnlockRoot and make sure drivers are installed on PC and USB Debugging is ON
If it works hit thanks

I have posted on here before but no-one bothered to answer so I'm posting again.
I need to know how to root my Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc LT15i. I have the ICS 4.0.4 standard SE issue installed with a locked bootloader. I have followed several tutorials on this site and ended up having a phone that keeps crashing after starting up.
1. Where is the ROMs required to install before rooting?
2. Where is the tool to root this phone?
3. Where is the latest ROM for ICS?
Also, clear instructions would be appreciated - please don't direct me to another forum topic because that didn't help at all.
google or search

Hi mate, I've done it few days ago because I wanted to install Ultimate HD rom... just follow next page:

Hello everybody,
First of all, I'd like to apologise if I'm posting this in the wrong thread, I'm kinda lost, as I'm new to this website and the smartphone world in general.
See, I've just bought a Sony Xperia Tipo ( http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_xperia_tipo-4718.php ) in the UK, and I moved back to my country (Peru), so my warranty is already voided.
What I wanted to do was to root and install a JB Rom (admittedly, I haven't found much information about this, and even the beginner guides I found confusing).
I was thinking on doing it without asking by following this tutorial on how to root a Xperia Tipo ( http://androidadvices.com/root-sony-xperia-tipo-st21a-android-phone-tutorial/ ), then I found this other one in the XDA forums http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1890478 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1971370 but the comments were somehow discouraging and the instructions were more than confusing for my slow working brain (sorry!).
Then I read that Sony Xperia Tipo does not support the unlock bootloader function ( http://2e0b66ea.yyv.co/ - from the official sony xperia website), does that mean I won't be able to install a cuztomized JB ROM?
Now, I've also searched through the forums and found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28929562#post28929562
Having said that, I would very much appreciate a rooting guide for dummies for the Sony Xperia Tipo (or should I just use one of those tutorials i posted?)
Will I be able to install the JB ROM I mentioned on my Tipo?
Thank you guys so much in advance for any future replies and I apologise for the stupidity of my question, but I had to ask before bricking my phone.
P.S: Needs to be said that I just bought the phone, so I didn't make any configurations or anything, was waitign to see if I can root my headset first.
you can unlock boot loader for tipo
as it is confirmed by sony official website
check it out...............
they updated there website..........

Ok i f ur problem is that the phone lags and hangs then u just make facrory reset
if that doesn't work then u can use this software
http://www.unlockroot.com/download.html
download,install and run unlockroot.exe then select root unlocker>press root>a dialog box with all connected devices appears select ur device from it follow on screen instructions and flash any custom rom available for your device
Hi
For rooting with DoomLord's method you need to flash the kernel to the previous version (.567) then apply his method, then flash .587 kernel
Search the forum to find the appropriate kernel files
For Flashtool check here
And finally, once you have done it, get xParts from the Play Stores and install CWM
First it will let you know if your device is rooted or not and CWM is always useful
Hope it helps.

Hello faheem754,
I own a Xperia P too and when I was in ICS (now I'm on JB) I didn't have any problem to root it. Have you checked this guide?http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2107775
Anyways if you can update to JB .100 you have an easiest tool in this thread to root (I've used it too)http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2335992
Hope it helped to you

i tried to root my sony ericsson xperia neo of android version 4.0.4 using different tools but i was unsuccessful where in the superuser app is not appearing..then i came to know their is a different procedure to root the 4.0.4 version phone..can anyone plse help me with this ...so that am planning to install CyanogenMod 10 on my phone .....
plse help me with the steps of how do i carry out this entire process untill i get cynogenmod 10 installed..
Try this Software!
If u r on any stock ROM try this software Eroot 1.3.4 (Google it and you will get dev hosted download link )
Connect your cell with MSC and Debugging ON and press root button. Your cell will be rooted in few minutes.
If you are not on stock ROM , then mostly all custom ROMs are pre-rooted . Even if they aren't search superuser.zip and flash via CWM your cell will be rooted in no time
If my solution was helpful, feel free to press Thanks button :fingers-crossed:
Watch this video i made maybe it would help: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5SYCZzuylVg&feature=youtube_gdata_player
