the SI list is for the initial ICS upgrade only, not for .587 update

Yeah I know that it's for the ICS update and I'm still waiting my ICS update... I've called my GSM operator and they told me they haven't received any updates from Sony about ICS...

so your locked on a network, i assume?

well this is most unfortunate, the only way to get ics right now is to flash it on your phone.

Yes I'm locked to a network... I was hoping that I will get it soon because I don't really want to root my phone. I guess sooner or later I will get ICS so I think I'm gonna wait untill then.

you don't have to root your phone to flash your phone, keep in mind that some networks are NOT going to release the update

I've changed the title of the thread as we went too much off topic. I have one more question on flashing custom ROM for example CyanogenMod. When do I have to flash the kernel after installing the CM or before flashing and installing the custom ROM? If I install CM can I go back to ICS stock ROM? By installing the ICS manually do I lose the warranty?
