I updated my first post. I now have all of my favorite apps installed and there is no lag. I suspect I probably saw the 'little' lag I mentioned earlier because of 3 weather apps that were set to update. I had Beautiful Weather with unlock animation, Go Weather, and Weatherbug Elite. Also, I had too many free apps that I downloaded everyday from Amazon appstore like business calendar, games, Wave Laucher, etc. I had Launcher Pro, Go Launcher, and Wave Launcher before:D
[Xperia Arc General] Dicky616:
I've rooted and installed titanium backup. can you suggested which crap apps that i can remove?
[Xperia Arc General] Dicky616:
thank you, i've tried them~
[Xperia Arc General] diggedy:
I had hideous lag when I first got the phone. I had a lot of widgets active so that didnt help. I flashed the 184 firmware with flashtool and rooted then stopped a load of stuff from auto running with autostarts. After a few days though it started lagging again, didnt matter how much I tried to remove. If the free memory got below 50mb then it would really crawl.

So I tried reflashing via seus at the weekend just gone and now its fine, Ive had it running for a week with no autostarts,, all ive done is remove whatsapp because its so annoying.

I have no idea what has changed but I find it lovely and smooth now with the same apps installed. It can even get as low as 35mb of free ram and still there is no lag.

There is only one thing ive noticed though. Even with the same apps installed I now have a lot more free internal storage (and extra 50mb!). Is it possible there was an app playing up and filling the storage space with crap whilst slowing my phone down?
[Xperia Arc General] hung77:
ok, here are my thoughts about the ARC vs SGS2

the ARC has much better screen visibility under direct sunlight even if the brightness is only at 1/3 of the bar.

The ARC also has a notification LED which is a plus.

Also the resolution is better and letters seem to be crisper too.

The ARC also has better ergonomics because it is 3mm smaller.

But at the end i have chosen the SGS2 because the SGS2 is way faster, the ARC is not slow at all but when you compare it direct to the SGS2, the ARC seem slow.

The touch respond on the SGS2 is way more reponsive and i can type faster on the SGS2.

The ARC has potential to be a good phone but SE refuses to update their phones. The phone is out for more then 1 month and there are several problems with the ARC but until now there is no news about any update from SE.

I hope SE will update this phone soon since i have exchange the phone with a friend and i dont want her to be disappointed about the phone.
[Xperia Arc General] mariolouis:
Same as mine. I just did a factory reset then root. Got rid of that whatsapp thing and the phone became faster. Not to mention better battery life. So what's up with whatsapp? (pun intended)
[Xperia Arc General] diggedy:
god knows, it seems to want to be involved in everything though. I mount the SD card and it becomes active. I hadnt even signed into it or anything.

and @hung77... SE not updating their phone???

Its only been out over a month, it has android 2.3 which most dont have yet....

Give them time! They cant release a new rom everytime someone has a problem. Half the issues people mention ive never seen yet so it cant be too easy for them to find the bugs if not everyone has them.

Have patience my friend ;)
[Xperia Arc General] kitsVA:
It's been just a month and looks like SE is already getting ready to roll-out some update with facebook integration soon.

I am sure you are aware Samsung is worse than SE with updates. They took several months to fix GPS issue in Captivate.

Lol I know! Like if u use the frikin thing side ways. Lol. U face the phone to ur front. Done. I love the arc. Had many phones. The arc is not the fastest device out there but dammm the camare is just amazing. Also best messenger too. Kinda like MIUI. That's how all messenger should be.
[Xperia Arc General] KQ17:
Or like, using the phone as a GPS in my car... Can't always have it facing towards me... Before doing stupid comments like ''like if u use the frikin thing side ways lawlz'', please think. It's not for nothing several reviews noticed it. Other than that, got used to it and yes, that screen is awesome.

Well both companies finally understood that they need to deliver. Both the X10 and the SGS family should run on 2.3 by this summer. As for the GPS issue... it was never really fixed. Even with their fix, there was issues. They dropped the ball on that one.

There is a thread in Development section about what we can remove :) Very useful..
[Xperia Arc General] zenkinz:
I tried out the arc in the store and I was impressed by the hardware, screen and camera to be exact. But I thought the camera button is flaky and glad I am not the only one who feels the same.

Having used galaxy s and desire HD, I am looking at the former as the benchmark as the latter just cmi!

In your opinion, is sgs2 just marginally better than system or much more? As I find arc so much better than dhd I have the impulse now to buy it instead of waiting for sgs2.

I also find the design cheesy with its chrome triming. But otherwise the size looks decent.

Any advice for me?
[Xperia Arc General] kitsVA:
I'd say it's only felt marginally better and has front camera which Arc doesn't have. If you find GSII attractive and if you like AMOLED screen you should go with GSII. I wanted front camera but I didn't like the design of GSII, or the AMOLED or the Samsung over bright.dark colors and it's ugly interface.

Another plus for GSII is it's long term potential. With it's power specs, the phone should be good to go for couple of years. I am not sure we can say the same about Arc.

I personally will move on to a better looking phone (with killer specs) whenever that comes, until then Arc is the king :-).
[Xperia Arc General] ShyamSasi:
I had a hard time comparing between Incredible S and Arc. But Arc is sexy and it's a beast. It's been 3 days no issues so far I used the phone for Games, Music and Camera this one never disappointed me. I would recommend this phone to everyone who is looking for this price range. With all these features the battery won't be great and I'm totally Ok with it. I didn't find any slowness or lagging while using it. I removed some bloatware maybe that's why :D

reflash

Hi, so how do I reflash? I don't know what seus is (sounds like I should get it though), or what reflashing is. Not sure if I have WhatsApp on my arc, but it sure takes FOREVER starting up (nearly 7 minutes). Also have no speaker volume for calls or playing music, even though the settings are all correct and nothing is muted. Have had ps1,2 and 3, walkman, another ericcson phone, camera etc., but now really starting to wonder about sony's products. Please help if it sounds like I would benefit by changing something with this phone. Thanks in advance.
[Xperia Arc General] Nirak:
@fuzzylogic1972

SEUS=Sony Ericsson Update Service, you can download it from official SE site, i'd give you the link, but i'm dutch and somehow i always end up in dutch section of support site. Anywayz...download it and install on your puter.

With this tool you can 'repair' your device i.e. reflash. afaik (never used it on the Arc, only on other SE device awhile ago) it gives you a clean install so make sure you back up your stuff.

A nearly 7 minutes start up is not good, Only time start up takes a little longer (not more then 3/4 minutes) is when starting device for the first time after buying or reflashing.

Reading the problems you have it might as well be a hardware problem; if reflashing doesn't help i would seriously consider contacting SE support.

Good luck, hope it works out for you!
[Xperia Arc General] im_iceman:
Agreed - if repairing the software through SEUS doesn't fix your problems then suggest contact SE..

[Thunderbolt General] tipsofme:
I woke up this morning at 5am an found that my Thunderbolt was running very hot. 60 degrees Celsius to be exact and the phones charging led was flashing from amber to green very quickly. I pulled the phone off its stock charger and pulled the battery to find that the battery its self was very hot and even producing and odd smell. I let the phone cool for five mins an once cold to the touch, I installed my spare battery and with heavy use, I am back to running temp of 34c and not sure what caused this??? Phone is rooted an running Bamf 1.6.2 overclocked to 1.4 and has been running like this since may 5th with no issues. I have noticed in the past two days, so very rapid battery drain but haven't installed anything new and i have all HTC sense apps not syncing... Any ideas?
[Thunderbolt General] TheStick13:
Do you use SetCPU to overclock? I would recommend it, as I think it would've prevented your phone from overheating.

I have 3 profiles set up, and then have the overall max set to 1.4ghz and min set to 245mhz using Smartass. I've found it's always a good idea to have a profile set up to limit the overclocking when the temperature is >50C, to prevent damage to the CPU. I have a profile to limit the max OC when the phone is charging, to help prevent it from overheating. I also use a profile to limit the max when the screen is off, since you don't need the extra speed then, and it helps on battery life. My profiles are:

Temp > 50C - Max=768; Min=245

Screen Off - Max=368; Min=245

Charging - Max=1024; Min=245
[Thunderbolt General] tipsofme:
Just set up all these profiles and even added another. Thanks for the tip! I hope this helps with battery life also.

No problem, man. Hope it helps!

[Thunderbolt General] voxigenboy:
i just had something weird happen myself. i just installed NONS3NS3 rom and then 'adownloader'. had it downloading a file then all of a sudden the phone locked up and was completely unresponsive. i pulled the battery and it was incredibly hot. waited for it to cool down and now everything is normal again. bizarre, because i could use adownloader just fine when i was on CM7.
[Thunderbolt General] fixxxer2008:
My phone gets warm to when i charge it but not 60c. The kernel can cause this too.
[Thunderbolt General] nrfitchett4:
I would probably not use that battery again. Sounds like it crapped out on you. 2 days of decreasing battery life, than that...
[Thunderbolt General] loonatik78:
I don't think the battery has any issue. When a Li-on battery fails, it will create a lot of heat, but it will also alter the resistance and voltage characteristics in ways the phone will detect.

If SetCPU resolved the issue, then you've got an issue with your ROM. It shouldn't do that under normal circumstances, and even if you're using SetCPU, something is still trying to use resources abusively. I'd try a different ROM or radio and get SetCPU off of there. It's actually abusive in itself with resources. It's great for testing OC settings, but for long term implementations of settings, a script is the ideal tool for the job as it implements setting directly to the kernel with no further intervention.
[General Questions and Answers] nickh07:
Hi there,

I rooted my phone, and following the guide, from the recovery screen did a 'NAND' back up before wiping then flashing a new ROM. Am I right in thinking, the 'NAND' backup took a copy/image of my phone, I.e if I wanted to return my phone to it's original state, with the stock ROM from my vendor, I could just do a 'Nand' restore?

Thanks
[General Questions and Answers] Dirk:
Absolutely correct. Can be restored either from within Rom Manager or directly from Recovery.
[General Questions and Answers] nickh07:
Thanks Mr Gently,

So I'm guessing now that I've installed a custom Rom and set it up how I like, if I wanted to test drive a different ROM, I could do another 'NAND' backup, incase I don't like the new ROM, restore it back to how my phone is as I'm typing this, apps and all?
[General Questions and Answers] Dirk:
Precisely! It's a great feature to have, especially as you can have multiple backups and swap between them as you see fit.

THnx in advandee :)
[Optimus One, P500, V General] danialrocker:
Have you rooted your phone?

Well I'll assume that you have an P500 with v2.2.2, Stock Rom Untouched.

Firstly you would want to root the phone. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1044765

Download Gingerbreak

- Make sure USB debugging is enabled(Can be enabled through settings)

- Make sure you have an SD card (formatted and) inserted

- Place the app onto the root of your SD card

- Open the APK, press the root button

- Wait a few minutes. If there are no problems, the device will reboot (note that the reboot itself can take like 10 minutes due to cache wipe)

Congratulations the phone is rooted.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] virusshah1997:
ya i have rooted!!!

Build : RA-thunderg-1.2.0-GNM

how do i install cm7 and wipe and other things

thnx in advance
[Optimus One, P500, V General] danialrocker:
After rooting your phone, you must have 1) Recovery Installer

2) Terminal Emulator (Free from market)

3) The Custom Rom

I recommend FranciscoFranco's Rom as it contains excellent tweaks without hassle of flashing many files which may cause your phone to brick.

Recovery Installer, You can get it from: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/11987571/quick/recovery_installer.rar

when you have everything, lets start

1. extract contents of "recovey_installer.rar" to the root(meaning the base) of your SDcard.(it contains 3 files, so you should also see 3 new files on your SD card).

2. open terminal emulator, enter these lines(press enter after each line):

Code:

su

sh /sdcard/rf.sh

just wait and this should reboot you directly to recovery.

3. now in recovery(remember: "vol + and - button" is "up and down" "menu button is ok/select" and "back button" is back)

Congratulations, Your Recovery Installer is installed.

Now, You can get FranciscoFranco's Rom which is called Devoid from

here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1049518

Download franco.devoid and the kernel.

Go to recovery boot

1.Select Wipe and Wipe everything and that includes data+factory settings, cache, system, .android-secure and sd-ext partition (if you had it already)

2. Select ext partition and choose either ext2/3/4 : 512mb,swap:0

3.Toggle usb connection and place devoid.franco and the kernel zip files onto your sd card.

4.Select flash and flash devoid.franco first then flash the kernel.You do not need to toggle signature verify as it should have signatured. If you are a ***** then carry on and toggle signature verify.

5.Reboot.

Enjoy ;)

You can thank me by pressing the thank button
[Optimus One, P500, V General] danialrocker:
There's an option where it says "wipe" when you are in your recovery boot you should enter that category and wipe what the developer says.

Also there should be a guide of how to flash cm7 onto your phone in the thread itself

There shouldn't be any problem . :confused:
[Optimus One, P500, V General] danialrocker:
Do you mean you do not know how to enter recovery boot menu?

If so, open your terminal emulator and type

su

reboot recovery

It will reboot your phone to recovery boot.

Then wipe what the developer asks you to wipe,

make the partition on your sd card wether its ext2/3/4

Then flash it.
