Hello xfahim,

First of all, Thanks for sharing

Now I just wanna ask before I Update to ICS and Root my phone, I am using Connectify Pro for WiFi

doesn't matter if your not using Connectify

Do you get problems with WiFi? or Mobile Data?

I'm a WiFi Zombie you see :smileygrin:

and don't have router yet.

Hoping for your immediate response.

Thanks for the time,

Bones

ive been following your tutorial and i rooted my phone easily. .my phone is fast and smooth  but the camera are in low light slow capturing and bad quality. . 1ghz wont fix it. . , . .from GB and now ICS its still makes different on camera shots. . im so disappointed, ..you are lucky you havent encounter any bug problems on your phone when it updated to ICS.

bonesnatch, Well, I use Connectify Pro too when I'm not at home and if I can't find any Wifi zone out. Wifi works fine. But It disconnects at times, like two times in two hours. Then I've to turn off and on the wifi of my phone to reconnect. Weeks ago, I've had to restart the hotspot, I thought it was the phone's fault, but after the Connectify update, this problem was solved.

And I didn't face ANY trouble with Mobile Data, too.

I think you can upgrade your phone, you see, everyone's using Samsung are using JB and we are still stuck with ICS. You can update your phone. Thanks.

kenzkee, I have issues with Fast capture too. it takes almost 3/4 seconds to take a shot. Also, I dont't see any difference in image quality, Yeah, 1ghz won't fix the camera.

Anyway, I'm not lucky. My GPS don't work at all. :|

Thaks a lot, I try it and now is phone like with GB ROM

But I still have one problem (after I update to ICS), I can't shut off my phone when I shut it off, phone is reboot and start again itself, without SIM PIN code prompt

so making xperia go go to 1000mhz does the battery drains more than usual?..

when rooting will it invalid the warranty of xperia go?..

@xfahim

yoh, hehe i updated my xGO to ICS without rooting it, i'm not having too much problems with my phone at all

The only difference is

1. Fast Capture takes like 2 to 4 seconds

2. Maybe a little laggy but not so much that you'd notice it right away, its mostly on the settings page tho ( i wonder if i should root it )

3. I hate the ICS email client, i can't refresh the combined view of all email addresses

( or i just don't know how to)

Still playing with settings for better performance,

and too bad, still can't install apps to EXT_CRD ( external card ).

If i root my phone what advantages do i get?

I hear lots of good reviews about rooting but they're from Other phones or models,

but not much on xGO

well i want to try those cenogen( or was it xenogen? ) mods that gives cool themes, other than limited themes of Xperia

Best Regards,

Bones

bonesnatch, Okey. fast capture is SLOW in ICS. By powering up your CPU the time might reduce.

If you root your phone, you can get the full performance of your phone.

And you can uninstall the mail client too.

One thing, have you tried playing Gameloft HD games in ICS? Let me know how that went.

Well, rooted phone is no bad. and if you think about the warrenty, you can easilt unroot the phone using the same tool I mentioned above. There's a lot of app that needs root access. (I mostly use AdAway, which one removes ALL the annoying ad's in Frerware apps. :smileygrin

oh, and thats Cynogen Mod. Sorry but they hasn't released any mod for our Go, we have too wait.

Fahim.
