Upgrading from custom rom

Tue, 08 May 2012 17:04:43 GMT

I'm running a custom ICS rom on a wt19a, but would like to upgrade it to official ICS when it rolls out in the end of may,

Can I just do that with Sony Bridge as usual?

I cannot guarantee it will since I have no clue what your phone's running on right now and how Bridge for Mac will react to it.

Normally, yes it works in most cases when going from custom ROM to official.

That's unfortunately the best answer I can give you. I hope it's satisfying.

Since you are on custom rom, your bootloader must be unlocked for sure ?

You can't upgrade officially to ICS until you relock it

For relocking it you need windows pc because Mac won't be able to do the job

There you have it. Thanks for posting this, Nabeel.

Clearly, I'm terrible at custom ROMs.

Yes I have an unlocked bootloader, and I'm running XROM ICS with the Xkernal.

I got tired of waiting for the officail ICS update, but when it does come out at the end of the month, I sure want to try that.
