i don't have but i had the same ( build 0.62) did you understand me ??

i was earlier on 2.3.4 but now on 4.0.3
its totally your wish to continue
if you don't relock your bootloader then also you won't be able to get ics from sony as your bootloader is unlocked and you still need to use flashtool to relock it

but why don't use the flashtool to get the ICS ??

now i am on ICS-

and i completely understand you , don't worry :smileygrin:

this means you must relock your bootloader instead if you are not willing to flash using flashtool

then relock your bootloader

Stick with Gingerbread.

Arc S isnt up to running ICS correctly, you end up with a phone that's so slow it get's very annoying.
