I also got the problem for accessing mobile data, I believe some sim card/operator does not compatible with this cm7. I try to use another network sim card from my friend , data can be attached automatically and apn setting is not necessary. May freexperia team to look into the issue.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] Mano1982:
Were you on .368 when you flashed this ROM? Or did you go back to .368 before flashing this ROM? :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] welshlad:
Great work, thanks guys.

Just the battery life a bit of a problem, it's quite a bit worse than the stock rom I came from (even after letting it settle a few days). Also, I assume this is related, the battery is taking at least twice as long to charge as it used to...

Thanks again :)

The FXP041 is still running fine here... no battery or data-problems.

Anyway, I still got problem with the app Camera360.. it won't function proper ... when I start up the Cam I get inside the app a black screen instead of the picture (but I do see the camera navigation buttons, etc.)

Question: Can I savely use the SuperCharge-Script with this CyanogenMod version? Any improvements by using the script?

Update: BTW I can't change the background wallpaper from the lockscreen (System / CyanogenMod / Lockscreen / Look / Change Background) ... any tipps on how I might change the wallapper of my lockscreen?

I've noticed that I can't download anything from Market if I'm using MarketEnabler, and I need to have that working :(
[Xperia Arc Android Development] av4tar:
since my last post late last night its been at least 12 hours, not one FC, data works fine and the battery has only dropped 26%, for 15hours 12 hours at least in standby and 3 hours messing with apps and settings i think thats pretty awesome, consider as well wifi has been active on the arc! good job devs :D

when the next CM update is out for the arc can we just flash it over the top of fxp041?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] kurogana.inc:
First I was on 368, then I tried them .283 from ARC S(LT18), and from the ARC S rom I flashed the CM? Maybe if i flash the 368 and re flash the CM it works?(vibration)

Lock screen calendar

What an quick Rom its works brilliantly but have a little quirk.

It is probably me as I have been messing about with my google accounts but on my lockscreen the calendar is about 3 days out ??

I have an all day event tomorrow, the calendar displays it correctly but on the lock screen it says Tuesday 01:00.

I have removed and added calendars and cleared the storage and resynced but still no joy, where does the lock screen pick up the information??

PS keep up the good work and donation coming on pay day :)

Just noticed this on CyanogenMod http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/32755-cyanogenmod-7-for-the-xperia-arc-v7101-11-oct-2011/, 7.1.0.1 , dunno if it's old news...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Mano1982:
Yes, it's a must.. First .368, then CM7 :) Otherwise vibration will not work :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] kurogana.inc:
Hey, i was like you, I came from the .283 firmware and no vibration, i solved using flashtool to come back to .368 global firmware, and then flashing the CM, now vibration is working... try this...

---------- Post added at 12:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:19 PM ----------

Thanks so much, I backed to 368 firmware, and from it I flashed the CM, and now everrithing is working... thanks again!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] dondavis007:
Some input.

1. Google reader crash

2. Apps that use the camera has problems, like the 360.

3. Battery draines faster than stock. Same software and stock spred.

A great rom, thank you!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ShyamSasi:
Yes. I'm using it now it works fine so far :)

Which script are you using? Sicktweaks? Or any other?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] sinkster:
I found sicktweaks caused a few issues. Supercharger works fine. Also apps2sd fails but link2sd now recognises the partition...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] :
Do you mean that the touchscreen is not working, only the hardware buttons ? I've got the same problem. My touchscreen is broken and i cannot get it back to working again :(
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ShyamSasi:
Yes Sicktweaks, V6 Supercharger, and few other Build.prop tweaks. :D. In there in my signature. It's for stock ROM, just ignore the portion about Kernel.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Mano1982:
Thanks :) I am applying these tweaks now :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] depulle87:

[Xperia Arc Android Development] Okluzhion:
A few updates regarding the stability. The battery drain is really huge without me doing anything special, and sometimes the battery goes up by 2%, or so it says.

And today I had to remove the battery because it froze on lockscreen. This was the first time I had to do such thing since I own my arc :(
[Xperia Arc Android Development] romaihi:
Arabic support

Hi,

just a question. Does the CM7.1 support arabic?

Thanks....

Mubarak
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Kyraa:
Have a look at the battery consumption menu where it says which app drains how much energy. If Android OS ist on the top with huge numbers, fix the permissions using ROM Manager. This worked for me on FXP024.

Edit: Just checked: Google Goggles works fine. Tanks punkmonkey1984
[Xperia Arc Android Development] depulle87:
can you use CPU spy from market and see if deep sleep is working correct ?

free and usefull app for rom testing.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] sinkster:
Since 7.1.0.1 my battery life has vastly improved, I've hardly any loss at idle, with the 1.5 Max and smartass v2.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] punkmonkey1984:
Yeah same here, my Deep sleep is working well also.

Also on smartass V2

Android OS reports having used 4% of battery over all
[Xperia Arc Android Development] exkaizen:
by default its interactive... after i tried change on demand... seems both use lots of batteries when deep sleep... seems will try smartass v2 then...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Okluzhion:
I always keep note of what's eating the most of the battery... posted screenshots already... Mobile Standby, Phone idle and Camera are the top three "culprits", but I don't even use camera... and I do have CPUspy, and it either says that deep sleep's ok, or goes with all percentages in minus, like, -34 or so...

EDIT:

it's charging now...

I just use LED Torch from the market - works like a charm..!

2nd issue: when calling someone, you can easily put someone on hold by pressing the holdbutton onscreen with (lets say) your ear.... Is it possible to fix/add the proximitysensor (also adjusting brightness when covered etc.)..??

3rd issue: a deadspot on the bottem of the screen when I turn it in landscape to-the-left...

4th issue: it looks like wifi goes into/has been into sleepmode sometimes when I unlock my Arc. I've noticed that 3g was running instead of wifi (wich was on and within 2 metre). After a few seconds wifi fires up and starts the connection again.... Very weird... Maybe another/particle battery drain issue....??

Go in to

Change what you want there tick 'Set on boot'

Reboot, then it should be fine.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bassie112:
wifi close and camera drain were issues with the old se firmware (368). we probably need a cm version based on the new firmware...

landscape sensitivity is a problem indeed on the bottom of the screen. so is the proximity sensor. but maybe that one is a setting. have to look for it.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Alejandrissimo:
Yes that problem in lanscape is ancent, hope it will be fixed soon

I dont have the battery drain problem, I guess my battery time is just like stock 2.3.4
[Xperia Arc Android Development] exkaizen:
Well... after change to smartass v2... battery drain become acceptable... ^_^
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Nimche:
I went to Google Map this morning and closed it but now after 12 hours I looked at the battery pattern and Map has eaten 51% of my battery today(My usage wasn't even1 min)

I guess programs don't get closed right?I don't even now what is it doing?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] exkaizen:
When you mention that... I've also noticed my Map eaten 74% of my battery... T.T.

If you look at the details in what actually was used, there is not much data being used or even GPS. I don't know where all the battery went into?

This firmware set the max cpu clock at 1.5ghz.

I am using Arc S, anyway to go higher than 1.5ghz?

BTW, i also having no vibration problem after flashing to 7.1 from my stock rom.

Will try to flash to .368 n to CM 7.1 again n see if this resolve the issue.

And any idea we can get back 2D sweep camera mode with CM rom?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] exkaizen:
After uninstalled google maps, finally the details shows the battery has been eaten by others apps such as cell stanby, phone idle, android system & etc...

I might missed some of the post regarding flashlight issue... but for me I can use the Torch apps from the rom
[Xperia Arc Android Development] claussor:
Just want to add my "2 cents"

First upgraded from .283

The vibration didn't work.

Then downgraded to .368

Vibration now works, but the flashlights flickers when actived, and when using the camera, the flash shuts off right before the picture was taken. This did not happen when using .283.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] :
It finally works! Thanks everybody! It's working very very smooth and i didn't found any problems :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Mano1982:
In WiFi Settings (Press Menu button while you are in WiFi) you can find "WiFi sleep settings" (or something like that) :p You can choose the option you want :)

Is there anyway to flash to .368 firmware without using FlashTool? For eg. using fastboot?

I tried using fastboot to flash to .368 kernel and rom but still no vibration. Then I flash to CM7 and still no vibration.

So now I wanna go back to .368 again to test but any good way to do it without the need for FlastTool?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] DooMLoRD:

Does I need to use .368 rom for your kernel (DooMKernel)? Or i can flash it on CM7 rom?

installing any other kernels (and possible bugs caused due to that) may not be supported by FXP...

Have been investigating the problem: looks like it does work...?!?! When I put my finger over the sensor, it looks like the brightness decreases very slowly..... But when I remove my finger, it increases very fast...

Is there any dev who can provide some info about the progress/functionallity of the proximity sensor, eg auto brightness, powering on/off screen when calling, etc.....? Just curious.... B-)

mmh is nobody having problems with the phonebook?

I can't view, edit or create contacts as soon I'm syncing them with a socialapp.

The strange thing is contacts that are not synced with a socialapp, those I can edit. The others creates a force close...

anyone suggestions?

[Xperia Arc Android Development] kistigun:
did you install the social apps on your sd? If so move them back to internal storage and see if that fixes your problem

They are all installed in the internal, some as user apps and some as system apps.

I have a bug to report when using the camera with flash the flash does not remain on when the photo is taken. Yes flash does work but just before the photo is taken not when the photo is actually taken. I tried 5 different cameras in the market + the experimental miui camera.

I then flashed the 4.0.365 Tom and flash worked with the photo. So I can say forsure this is a Rom bug.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] punkmonkey1984:
Try reflahsing the cm7 zip over the top of your current set up.

Iv flashed mine over about 10 times due to version reasons of me messing it up.

Might help, iv never had the 'android.process.android' crash

Try it, its worth ago, you dont lose any data etc.

I have just realised that im running:

CyanogenMod-7.1.0.1-XperiaArc-LT15i Version

From the CyanogenMod forum.

http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/32755-cyanogenmod-7-for-the-xperia-arc-v7101-11-oct-2011/

You can flash that over the top of the one here in this FXP version as well.

How can know if I have an unlock bootloader ?

Thanks in advance
[Xperia Arc Android Development] skiba:
Rom is fantastic, so much more responsive than my stock Sony build.

Only major issue is battery drain, I've underclocked to 1.2 with smartass, settings tell me its phone idle and cell standby consuming 50%. CPU spy tells me my phone spends 18% of time at 1.2, 58% at 0.1 and 13% in deep sleep. Not really sure what can be causing it but have gone back to juice defender for now.

Thanks again for all the efforts on this!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] hakhater:
the rom is very fast and good to daily use:cool: thanx FXP

BUT I have a problem .... after using the rom for a few days the problem shows up and it wasn't there before

the problem is the long press does not show any menu, only vibrate like its working, only on the home screen ... in the app drawer and other places works fine.

anyone had the same issue???
[Xperia Arc Android Development] mericon:
same here 37% battery drain over night so i will leave it on charger over night

excuse me if my questions are noobism

i have an arc with 2.3.4 stock rom ~ Rooted ~ Unlookbootloder ~ ....

1. can i directly flash this rom !?

2. if i downgrade to .368 build and heard that my phone faces to 0% battery problem !! so how i have to do it that dont bring any bug for my phone !?

3. Bravia enegine and Xloud work in this rom ??

4. is this rom overclocked !?? if yes between what Ghz ??

thX so much ...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] DooMLoRD:
is anyone else facing this issue:

specifically when using/accessing Market (it got updated to new version 3.1.5) on Wifi... wifi just keep disconnecting... i have also noticed similar behavior when using browser... though this doesnt happen when using XDA app, gmail, etc...

can anyone else confirm this?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] kistigun:
tried it a few times but it didn't help, anyone else having the add contact bug?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] depulle87:
why is it here still a nightly but over at the CM site already a stable release ?

@ Doomlord did not had that issue on browser and I use the market 3.1.5 also.

---------- Post added at 10:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:43 AM ----------

1 - yes you need fastboot to flash boot.img (kernel) and use CWM to flash rom and google apps

2 - dont know I used the .368 pack from this thread second post this will give you no problems ( at least I dont have them here )

3 - I don't know really but cant see the bravia engine settings

4 - yes, it is at 1516 Mhz when you flash it and that is the max for this kernel
[Xperia Arc Android Development] crimilde:
Since I flashed CM7.1.0.1 from the CyanogenMod site the camera force closes systematically once I press the shutter button...

Does anyone else experience this?

On another note, the battery drain is quite high... Deep sleep seems to be functioning properly but I can't get past ~17-18 hours with moderate usage (1.5GHz and smartassV2 governor)... I calibrated the battery after wiping the stats and it's the same.

On stock I usually had ~50 hours of moderate usage with DoomKernel and CPU OC'd to 1.6 and same governor...

EDIT: restored 7.1.0 and the camera still force closes *sigh*
[Xperia Arc Android Development] maharz:
1. download the 7z files and fastboot flash boot boot.img , then go to recovery mode, and install all zip in the files

2. i don't experience that problem

3. doesn't work

4. yes, 1500mhz, but i use 1000mhz. seems still fast and responsive
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Okluzhion:
I'm at 1.2Ghz, smartassv2 and I get max 7hrs of just using the phone, like text editing, with wifi and imo on. And sometimes I get to 11hrs IF I keep the usage at minimum. I usually got 7hrs with doomkernel on stock ROM with net browsing and ftp transfers, well more usage in general. I was really disappointed with this huge battery drain.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] bassie112:
I noticed that bluetooth (always on for me) drains a lot of battery. It's always in the top 2... Also the call quality (from the other person) is most of the time very bad.

Right now however it's better to stick with stock SE in my opinion...
