this ain't working.. no superuser; no root!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] rahul.pillai:
The binaries are present, download the Super user app, if you have wiped while flashing the ftf file.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] alexbard:
Sorry but my Xperia Arc won't boot after flashing this.

So I flashed the stock ROM with Flashtool, and I applied root later via recovery.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] conantroutman:
IF YOU EXPLAIN HOW TO "DO IT RIGHT" IN THE OP THEN PERHAPS PEOPLE WONT POST SUCH THINGS IN YOUR THREAD.

The first post does not explain the issue of the "missing" superuser which may confuse some people.

Please update the op to include detailed instructions.

Please also refrain from posting requests in the Dev section and then creating a new thread for the files once you have them.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Lord Takyon:
He provided files, it is YOUR problem to know what to do with them.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] conantroutman:
It's not my problem at all.....

If he's going to post files then he has to at least make sure people are aware of the issues they may experience when attempting to use them.

MY problem is keeping these forums tidy and organised....

The reason for my post is that even once the issue was raised the OP made no attempt to enlighten anyone as to why or help them. That is not what XDA is about.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] SiRIus[X]:
i'm kinda confused here, anyone can help me? how to flash an img file? or do i need to rename the file to ftf?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jlmcr87:
.ftf--->flashtools

.img--->fastboot

In this page you can find tutorials about the two methods
[Xperia Arc Android Development] chefchuck:
Any chance this is compatible with the LT15A? Sorry I'm new to the xperia game. Just recieved mine, I'm in Miami Florida, and the LT15A's have been on sale for cheap here in the states for a few weeks now. I'm guessing if there isn't a radio update in the firmware package then it would compatible, can anyone confirm?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] boober78:
My phone is notbooting after flashing this one. Do you have unrooted img version? Flashtool doesn't see my phone and I really cannot use this method. Only fastboot. Thanks in advance.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jlmcr87:
Someone has deleted my post of the unrooted version. Sorry but i´m not going to create any more post in this page.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] matus201:
I have same question as chefchuck, will this work with LT15a?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] E15i:
Can anybody check if the Global one have Hebrew in menu to? I tired of flashing ROM...none of regions ROMS has it in menu.

I know SE told us that X10 2.3 update will have less support for right to left languages, but it seems to be that it maybe apply to all 2.3 devices, the only ROM's I didn't try was the Global, but I don't have an ARC or NEO, only PLAY and X10.

thank you for help.

Lta15i/a both are the same, feel free to use any firmware i or a

Greetings
[Xperia Arc Android Development] caqo71:
Does anyone know the software differences between a/i?.

and ontopic:

since gingerbreak is no longer working, and OTA updates doesn't cover las firmware.....; the simple question is.. Is there a way to have ROM .368 with locked bootloader and rooted???? :rolleyes:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Alejandrissimo:
if there are differences, there are not important, its about bands frequencies and stuff sometimes, never has been relevant in Sony Ericsson phones.

Its more like region ID just that.

In this Arc particular case the difference is that LT15a has this bands;

GSM850, GSM900, GSM1800, GSM1900, UMTS800, UMTS850, UMTS1900, UMTS2100

and LT15i has this:

GSM850, GSM900, GSM1800, GSM1900, UMTS900, UMTS2100

And as you can see LT15i has not UMTS850 so it will not work on for example Telcel Mexico 3G since Telcel use UMTS850

BUT i/a in software can't change add or remove bands on the phone since this its hardware configuration.

To prove this, I have an LT15a with LT15i firmware and 3G workink with UMTS850 band. So the "i or a" letter indicates only the region that the phone belongs, there is no differents in software.

Then don't worry to flash any firmware i or a to any SEMC phone :D

You can unlock your phone with setool and you will get unlocked bootloader and fastboot
[Xperia Arc Android Development] boober78:
Hello. Could you PM me a link with the unrooted version if that is not a problem? If you already have the .img file.

Thanks in advance.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Alejandrissimo:
why do you need unrooted img??? in that case just flash the FTF via flashtool :S

there is a lot of post with differents versions
[Xperia Arc Android Development] caqo71:
I know all that you said. I just asked for "software" differences.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Alejandrissimo:

1) Flashed non-rooted tft file with flashtool.

2) Flashed Doomlord's Doomkernel v8 with fastboot.

3) Enjoy!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] caqo71:
Is there a way to do all that with the bootloader locked? :confused:

Use 'fastboot flash system rom file.img' command from dos prompt. Refer doomlord procedure in other section for reference. Hope its help.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] GreyGhostRos:
You need unlocked bootloader with fast boot enabled.. Hint: Namaste guide sticky in General Forum..

Then use fastboot command to flash the .img

"fastboot flash <partition> <img file>"

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the-weatherman:
If flashing firmwares doesn't solve the issue, then I hope your phone is still under guarantee.

Don't forget to flash STOCK firmwares before flashing any other ROM.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkmoon078:
It's under guarantee, but the problem is I'm in other country right now. I flashed stock rom but the problem still there. :(
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] the-weatherman:
So your issue is definitely caused by your hardware.

You'll need to reflash your branded ROM before sending it back, else they won't accept to repair or replace it.

I am a SUPER NOOB... I rooted my phone and S-Off it... Was trying to flash a ROM, did not work no my phone is stuck at all white screen with HTC across it.. Please help:(
[HTC Sensation] frenchie746:
if you pull the battery to turn off the phone, put the battery back in and hold the volume down button while you press the power button does it take you to the bootloader? And secondly, can you get to the recovery from there?
[HTC Sensation] Staydown225:
Yes... Now the son of a gun won't even power on...
[HTC Sensation] Staydown225:
I done did something bad... It wont even power up, or charge.... Before you ask me could I get to the boot loader screen I could, but I was jacking around with all kinda of stuff now the thing won't even power up..
[HTC Sensation] frenchie746:
How long are you holding the power button to turn it on, you just need to press the power button long enough to power the device on, but keep your finger on the vol down button until you get to the bootloader. Also, do you have the updated clockwork mod recovery installed that doesn't have the charging issue. Basically, is your battery dead?
[HTC Sensation] Staydown225:
ok now i have power...
[HTC Sensation] Staydown225:
Just please help me get my phone to come on so i can use it.. I am in boot loader now(held power button and volume down button)
[HTC Sensation] frenchie746:
go to recovery
[HTC Sensation] Staydown225:
Did it... What's next? I've tried everything on the list.. Nothing, that was before I actually posted the thread...
[HTC Sensation] frenchie746:
ok, if you are in the clockwork mod recovery, from there you need to do a full wipe, "data factory reset" cant remember the exact option. after you do a full wipe then you can try to install the rom again.
[HTC Sensation] Staydown225:
"data factory reset" did.... Phone still can't get pass that same screen....
[HTC Sensation] frenchie746:
did you re-install the rom after the factory reset? Also, the rom takes a while to boot the first time.
[HTC Sensation] Staydown225:
how can I re-install a Rom if my phone cant even get pass the screen and come on for me to get to the disk drive to drag and drop the ROM?
[HTC Sensation] Staydown225:
I am new to the andriod world, so please excuse the Noob-Ness
[HTC Sensation] frenchie746:

When you downloaded the rom did you put it on your sd card?

What rom did you flash, and how did you flash it?

Lets start there.

[HTC Sensation] frenchie746:
My suggestion would be to use your computer to download a new rom from the dev section. Find a usb adapter for the micro SD card and move the new rom to it. Try flashing the new rom from CWM. Sounds to me like you got a rom that isn't for the sensation. Do you remember which rom you downloaded?

For future reference, when you are in the bootloader you can connect the phone via usb and do this on a PC (if you have the android sdk tools installed as per the guides)..

adb push FILE /sdcard/FILE

to copy files from PC to the phone, without needing the phone to actually have booted up fully, just needs to be in the bootloader.
[HTC Sensation] Staydown225:
That's way over my head.. I am loss.... I was about to assess my SD card by going to bootloader and going to, I think its call USB Mount then it let me put my SD card on my laptop while phone was still in bootloader. Is that what your talking bout?

Download the Samusung Kies and install it (it includes samsung device usb drivers)

once this is installed you can connect the Tab and it will be recognized as a phone with a USB storage.

go to the software.

and download the Kies for windows.

Ok so I have a very annoying problem with my evo. Everytime I restart the phone, the icon to any app that I have on my homescreen that is also saved on the sd card does not show up once my phone has restarted. In place of the icon is a standard android icon that takes me to the market when touched. I know that a simple fix is simply just to change the scene then change it back again to make the icons reappear, but it's such a hassle to have to do it everytime. Does anyone else have this problem, and does anyone know how to prevent it from happening so I dont always have to change the scene every time?

This is a gingerbread problem and I don't know why google hasn't done anything about it. It worked fine on Froyo on the 0g evo but as soon as gingerbread came out it appeared. The same thing happens if you use a widget for an app that you've moved to the SD card. After a reboot the widget will be disabled. Hopefully google will fix some day. It seems to be a problem with the sd card not being recognized before the apps and widgets are loaded on the homescreen. Maybe a change in the bootup sequence would help where the sd card is recognized before the home screen is rendered.
