[Completed] Can Xperia arc S run Kali? - XDA Assist

Hi, I have an old Xperia arc S phone here just collecting dust and i wanted to play with kali and wifite a bit.
Since this is a very old android with not much space, before doing anything stupid i wanted to ask if someone had experience with this phone and installing kali or a similar software and what steps i should take.
im not sure if i need to start installing something first or rooting it first, etc.
thanks in advance

rooting without flashing on xperia neo?

hello xda,
First, congratulations for a great work that you are doing here.
I am a newbie in android, and my son bought my wife a Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, OS GingerBread fortunately upgrade to Ice Cream Sandwich is available, so I upgraded it.
My question is, is it possible to root this phone without flashing?
The reason I'm asking this is because I cannot play music from external sd card, only the default music and she don't like the list.
I have transferred more than 150 song to it but cannot play it.
I have downloaded some folder app but i can only play music one at a time.
I have read somewhere here that i need to root in order to be able to play music and not the default one.
Can someone please help or guide me to this problem, or maybe anybody can recommend some apps that I can download so I don't have to root?
Thanks in advance.
rooting without flashing on xperia neo
hello xda dev team,
may i ask for your help, i need to know if it is possible to root my xperia neo without installing a custom firmware?
i am not familiar with rooting and flashing firmware. my firmware is up-to-date (ICS) so there's no need to install new firmware, only to root, so i can install some modification for my phone, is it possible?
please please xda dev team , somebody help me.
thanks in advance

[Q] Learning How to Root arc S

Hi guys, I`m an new user and I`m starting my knologe about Android, so I have some questions about the procedure to Install CM10 on my device. I read many posts at the forum, but i got a little confused about the way I might procede.
-Fist of all my device is a Sony Xperia Arc S (X12) Lt18a, but all the information for rooting and installing CM10 are for the Lt18i, Does it make any diference, because i know that the frequecies are diferent, and i`m afraid my cellphont stop working here on Brasil.
-Second, i`m confused about what i might do first, i might root or flash my device?
My android is:4.0.4 ans version number is 4.1.B.0.431.
Thx alot for all that can help.

[Completed] [Q] Help request- Rooting Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc S LT18A

I Know I aleady posted a thread like this, but it was closed before a found a solution, please dont close this one too!
I have an old smartphone (model specified above), which I have tried to find a root for it (like FOREVER), every single root I found wasn't able to do the job. Either the program alerted me that the phone is not supported , or tried to root and failed. I have looked into other threads with the same problem, and they either didn't have a solution, or simply directed me towards stickys with rooting programs that also didn't work.
I want to root it so I can uninstall some of the build-in apps that I dont use (such as facebook, youtube, and out-of-date & un-updateable operator apps.). They function poorly, take up space, and worst of all: they run in the backround (and on old phones such as this every megabyte of RAM counts.) Please help me.
Is there something I'm missing? A vital step a skip or something? Do i need to unlock the bootloader to root?
I probably have a custom ROM of the operator this phone was originally purchased from, does it make any difference?
If Anyone can explain to me step-by-step what and how to root, or point me to a usefull guide, i will be forever thankful.
The file attached is a example to one of many failed roots.
Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc S LT18a
Firmware version: 2.3.4
Build:4.0.2.D.0.5

[Completed] [Q] Time2touch gc1044e in need of rooting help please,

So i picked up this 10.1 '' tablet in a sale on amazon, i wanted to play hearthstone on it when i was away from my pc (as i have a problem), however the 'unique' way in which HS installs to the internal memory no matter what made me look up solutions, when doing so i figured out that i must not have a rooted device as i wasn't able to use the workarounds provided.
So then i reckon the internet could help, so far i haven't been able to find a solution and was told from multiple people (rooting is easy...just look up your model and...) problem is i cannot find any mention on the internet as to a solution for me,
Please, please, please help me i am running out of patience with this yoke, and if i could get help from your professional's i would be in your debt.
If someone has an idea please help i can provide any/all info to do with this tablet if necessary:
Time2touch 10.1'' gc1044e running 4.4.4 kitkat,
Thanks for taking the time to read this,
regards,
Donbro.
