Use this method or use flashtool
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460

Search for ROOT with restore by bin4ry & androxhyde.
This method really works. It just takes 2 minutes to complete. Or you can try flashing custom kernels which support auto root function.

Please HELP

hello everyone..
I have new xperia mini pro and just updated it to ICS 4.0.4 officially.
nothing is done in my phone like flashing or rooting.
whenever i try to customize it using mods it shows flash via CWM.
and with best of my knowledge CWM requires rooting and flashing.
is there any way i can flash zip files without rooting my phone.
or if have to root it please tell me the best way to do it as i think rooting with 4.0.4 is nt possible.
tankyou.

for xperia mini(st15i) there is a temp CWM recovery that you can flash with flashtool(require unlocking bootloader) and you can flash mods and when you reboot the device CWM is gone.
search temp boot for xperia mini pro.if you find maybe usefull for you.
if you find temp boot for your device you can root your device with CWM.
Rooting is the gate to modding pal. . .
You need to do it. . .
Also bootloader should be unlocked as if u wanna install custom rom some of them are only for unlocked bootloaders. . .
Rest use search button
Happy modding

To use CWM you dont need to root your phone but you need to unlock the bootloader and flash a new kernel. This WILL void your warranty but if done correctly it opens a whole world of mods in android. Sony provides an official method of doig the same in their blog(jut google) but using that method makes you loose your drm. I did come across another method(on this forum) which claimed that you could do the same without loosing the drm but I havent tried it out.
You can without unlocking...

Hello.
To use CWM without unlocking your bootloader, I did the following :
Start with an xperia mini pro with official ICS 4.0.4 (4.1.B.0.431)
First, I rooted my xperia following the topic : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1701357
Then I used RecoverX to install CWM without unlocking the bootloader : http://www.iphoneandroidtips.org/how-to/recoverx-to-install-recovery-for-sony-xperia-phones/
Then you restart your Mini Pro when Sony appears, keep on taping on Volume down button to enter CWM menu :cyclops:
Then I could install custom ROMs CyanogenTimescape, RealICS, AOKP (Roms that allow locked bootloaders)
I hope that can help you.

You need to have root already, before updating to ICS.
You need rooted Gingerbread in order to root ICS. Make sure ADB drivers are installed.

Well, flash your phone to ICS and then root it. After rooting install CWM Recovery and then install a JB zip from the recovery. The whole procedure is given in Development section.

He is on JB and want a recovery which works in JB. So flash ICS then root then install CWM and then install JB ROM. So he will have both JB and recovery. I think he want this only else if I am wrong please correct me.
Lol guys now i don't know what to do.
You mean if i was on JB i can install the CWM one? Will it work fine? You mean this right?

Since you are on locked bootloader, you need to:
1)root your device following the steps on Xperia p development section(doomlord toolkit)
2) install cwm using recoveryx on your pc!

That one would work once you have root.
Depands which JB, DooMLoRD Easy Rooting Toolkit only works for 6.2.A.1.100.
