No there is no possible way for your SI number to change even if you flash ICS. your SI number will be at the back of your phone. take off the back cover and the battery and on the top left you can see you Si number as xxxx - xxxx such!

Actually the SI number changes after ICS update from flashing. This is because of the SI number's presence in the build.prop file. If you change it back to your original SI number via root methods, then its fixed again though.

in the build.prop there's no SI number. It's customisation number, and it's different than SI.

Here you can find list of Xperia U phones, and customisation numbers, chceck your customisation number in build.prop and search it on this list. There's all info about model, for which market it was released, branding etc. Also you ca find your original SI number on the side of phone box alongside IMEI number.

If you have flashed different GB rom, your customisation number has changed.
If you want to get update for your ofiicial firmware, you have to know what was your customisation number before flashing .184 which you get from xda.
