[Xperia Arc General] Torres77an:
Ok perfect but can you give me a link to it because the flash tool I have is not the right one I think I think it's just for rooting,

but don't I have to have an unlocked boot loader to flash a custom kernel ? I would like to do that anyway since S E not letting us do updates .
[Xperia Arc General] pushtostop:
Hi

If flashing to doomkernel there is no need to flash ftf

Just fastboot system.img then fastboot doomkernel boot.img

Ftf was only to optain new kernel so if your going for doomkernel theres no need

Hope that helps
[Xperia Arc General] Torres77an:
I just want to ****ing update my phone I don't think that's asking for to much
[Xperia Arc General] pushtostop:
Then wait for it to be offical whereever u are or try googling flashtool

No need for cursing

Edit

Here s flashtool

http://www.multiupload.com/7H4JT35B6G

And yes u need an unlocked bl for custom stuff

But not for roms that are signed by se you can just flash those thru flashtool
[Xperia Arc General] ShyamSasi:
Ok. I Flashed the ftf first then flashed the IMG file. Everything works fine. No Wifi issues.

Recommend ! :)
[Xperia Arc General] Finalfour:
How about battery drain? I rooted this newest fw, removed a lot of blotware with titanium, but i think battery draining so quick... it's strange, perhaps before removing blotware battery stays longer than now, after removing al lot of stuff...
[Xperia Arc General] ShyamSasi:
Its too early to tell. But i'll report back after 2 or 3 hours.
[Xperia Arc General] rahul.pillai:
Thanks! It better work, if you know what the process is....
[Xperia Arc General] rmk152:
.ftf file worked for me no problems. Thank-you :)

im getting the feeling that flashing the .tft with uncheck wipe data will wipe the root access...
[Xperia Arc General] hanifh:
rubbish battery since upgrading

battery absolutely rubbish since installation on friday. phone buggy and slow as hell too. hate this POS phone with a vengeance. planning to smash it against the wall tonight and get my insurance. will go back to the galaxy s2 which is without doubt the best phone out there.

/end of rant.
[Xperia Arc General] rmk152:
This happens to my friends Arc too, any help guys. I`m sure my bootloader is locked unless i was just lucky.
[Xperia Arc General] ShyamSasi:
After hours of troubleshooting finally I think I found the problem. battery drain issue was caused by Facebook Inside Xperia. I disabled it after 6 hours I still have 90%. Which for me it usually was around 60 to 50% even if the phone was in idle.

Edit: It's actually not Facebook Inside Xperia as I thought its the Wifi. If it switch to data connection no heat, no battery drainage etc. it works fine. I wonder what the problem was ?
[Xperia Arc General] Abaddon:
what I did was freeze/delete some unwanted apps like the update thingy. fun&downlaods,setup guide and etc2.

no unusual battery drain for me
[Xperia Arc General] Xajel:
I've update to 2.3.4 already and lost my root as expected.. now I want to unlock my bootloader and flash the prerooted image...

the problem is that I want a nice and trusted backup app so I can backup all my stuff ( including Apps data on the internal memory ), and this is just in case, I know there's an option to keep all the stuff while flashing but I just want to be sure... the only problem is I'm not rooted and most apps I know require rooting to do so !!

I hate the fact that Titanium Backup requires root even for doing the backup ( not restoring ) !!
[Xperia Arc General] Mano1982:
Try MyBackUp :) There is a paid version also, MyBackUp Pro

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.rerware.android.MyBackup&feature=search_result
[Xperia Arc General] LenAsh:
2.3.4 has the Google Backup/Restore function in Settings>Privacy now.

And it works - for free.
[Xperia Arc General] Torres77an:
I doubt this but do I have to be on 2.3.2 to unlock my boot loader I'm probably not installing my drivers correctly I've downloaded the files and unzipped them but things are not showing up exactly like in the video and I can't get the light to turn blue when I reboot my phone
[Xperia Arc General] Torres77an:
Ok so I've spent quite some time trying to unlock my bootloader and then I just try'ed to flash the update and I've come to realise that files are not being unzipped properly on my computer I was wondering if any one could send me a link to an good file zip program ?
[Xperia Arc General] eRajesh:
This is the 2.3.4 FW for the Arc. Right?
[Xperia Arc General] Torres77an:
What do you mean ?

[Xperia Arc General] Xajel:
I took a look at it, the problem is if I want to restore, I can't it says I have to buy the pro version !!

I didn't saw any thing about backing up apps data, only Apps and user settings...

another thing is I can't force backup so I'm sure that the latest is backed up !!

I only want to be sure that some of my apps are backed up, some apps and games doesn't save their data/settings on the external card...
[Xperia Arc General] Xajel:
Forget it, I decided to root using UK184>Nordic181>OTA to 2.3.4 as I can't risk loosing my data...

already downloaded UK184 and only 5 min left for Nordic181 and I'll go ahead with that...
[Xperia Arc General] jenni:

Hey guys,

Would be very grateful if someone could possibly re-upload the 4.0.1.A.0.283 Generic Global firmware, please? I've been searching and searching these forums but every link has now expired. I made the mistake of upgrading my Arc to 4.0.4 - so many bugs, it's unbearable!

Hi

My Samsung Tab has suddenly started to force close the phone app when a call comes in. So the tab starts to ring, the screen looks like it is going to open the incoming call screen but then force closes and the ringing stops. I have factory reset the device but it still happens.

Anyone got any ideas how to fix this?

Hello forum members. Since I can not write in the subject CM7 due to "less than 10 posts", I write to a common theme. Now I use the new CM7 from 9/10/11, but it eventually starts to work bad accelerometer, delayed action, it is impossible to play, flips the display after 5 seconds. Kernel is the standard, tried franco kernel, same problem.

How and what to eliminate the problem?

P.S. sorry for the bad translation, I am Russian, English I know is bad, so I translate through Google Translate
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] katu2006:
As far as I know this is a bug and only Geno/developers can fix this...Unfortunately, there is nothing you can do for now. Try installing Oxygen, that's slightly better when it comes to sensor lag...
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] darkado:
there's a fix in the cm7 or franco kernel thread (can't remember, worked for me)
[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Sanya_nah777:

To convert the arc into an Arc S at 1.4Ghz
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bmwbasti:
And from where do you know that your cpu can run stable at 1,4 ghz?

;)
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jlmcr87:
Why don´t you inform before speaking? The arc can handle even 1.8Ghz, try doomkernel
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bmwbasti:
Ehm, only because you can push the cpu to 1,8Ghz doesn't mean that it cah handle it stable.

So i just can give the question back: Why don't you get information about how processors work and what overclocking does do and how it works.

I repeat: Only because you can push the processor to a specific frequency doesn't mean that it can handle that frequency stable....
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jlmcr87:
Repeat:Why don´t you inform before speaking? Doomkernel has been tested and it´s stable at 1.8 Ghz, so at 1.4..........
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bmwbasti:
Ah, the kernel was tested? How can a kernel been tested if the cpu gets frequency xy?

The one has nothing to do with the other.

I'll just give up...

Seems it makes no sense. Just go and get the Arc S fw onto your Arc.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] matus201:
I would actually be interested what processor does the Arc S have - is it the same processor bumped to 1.4 GHz, or is it different chipset?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] piflechien:
Yes exactly same processor

Ars S: Processor 1.4 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon MSM8255

GPU Adreno 205

Arc: Processor 1 GHz Qualcomm MSM8255

GPU Adreno 205

I wonder why they just don't increase CPU frequency of already exisiting Arc via the latest update ?

Ha ... marketting ...
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lil_devil:
Arc S has a Qualcomm MSM8255T which is different than Qualcomm MSM8255...

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zwilly:
Tried replacing the build.prop of the Arc S system dump and then performing a update using SEUS or PC Companion, it gives a message that the software is not available yet. Either have to wait for that or for somebody to get the ftf/img. I changed the build number of the build.prop to a lower value to make it check for an update. It does say now in "About Phone" that I have a LT18i :P

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thelolinator:
*Sigh* None of you know that the Qualcomm MSM8655T isn't just an extra letter at the end of the code name, it actually brings changes:

Higher clock speed (this is the frequency the processor is fused at when it is manufactured, something that 'overclocking' does not do the same job at)

Lower power consumption (if you compare the Arc and Arc S spec sheets, you'll see the difference in estimated battery life)

Higher data transfer speeds (an improvement brought by the chipset)

There are things that a firmware update will not and can not 'fix'.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zwilly:
The furthest I got so far is pushing the /system of the LT18i to my LT15i. Don't notice any difference compared with the latest LT15i firmware but that is prolly because of mentioned hardware differences and the differences shown in the previews are like somebody suggested maybe left out in the /system dump of the LT18i.

I must say that everything feels alot quicker/smoother since the upgrade of 2.3.3 to 2.3.4 :D
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] josephnero:
no.its not the same.i checked with SE USA dep and Arc s has arm cortex9 based CPU.not arm cortex8 on normall Arc

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iridaki:
If you mean that you can get a faster processor, no, of course you can't. The phone will display LT18 because it reads the build.prop, but other than that, it will always be an Arc (LT15). So may I ask why would you want to do such a thing?

New bootloader has you locked in. Currently no rollback to any version. I suppose Acer will catch a lot of flak on this.
[Acer Iconia A500] synapses11:
Yup, from me personally. I called Acer yesterday giving them a lot of flak. They told me over the phone to do a factory reset to roll back to 3.01 LMAO. Bunch of tools! I really pray someone is able to root it and able to flash CWM back on so I can dump 3.2. I love the microSD mounting in it but otherwise Im having a lot of issues with it as well including wifi dropouts which statically setting my ip alleviates. If no one can, I was lucky enough to grab one of those HP TP's 32 gig for $150 which I will gladly flash with Android once CM finishes up the port which is looking really sweet and then dump my a500 onto ebay.
[Acer Iconia A500] ezterry:
Wifi dropouts you can prob. fix by changing the settings of your router:

See: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=17708525#post17708525

Other issues a factory reset (clearing your userdata) may help if something installed before the update didn't like the update.

I notice that after updating from 3.1 to 3.2 via OTA, I can now see my files on my NTSF external HDD's (both 500GB & 1TB).

Not only that, I can watch all my movies of the external drives too! The ol' 3.1 cannot do that.

But the big problem is, I cannot root it anymore since most of my apps are for rooted tablets only.

Hoping for another app to break the 3.2version to be able to install and run all apps for rooted tablets.

Hey guys, I've had my HTC Desire S for about a month now,

Today I was using it, and the volume kept turning itself up. I turned it back down, and a few seconds later, back up to nothing. Repeated that a few times, and it kept happening.

I played with the volume buttons and they don't feel jammed at all, the vol. up button is clicking fine, doesn't feel stuck or anything. And if that wasn't bad enough, I tried turning my phone off and on, but when turning it on, it still thinks it's held down so it will only boot into recovery mode. so, as a result my phone wont boot up at all....!!!

Is there any solution for this?? can i disable the Volume rocker??? plz help me out guys..........(i have already rooted my phone so warranty is void!!)

not sure about the volume rocker but it is possible to unroot & change to s-on for warranty purposes(not sure about the recovery though)

[Windows Phone 7 General] slimshady322:
That would really be awesome, but keep in mind there was only one "trusted source" for this information.

Even if this trusted source comes from within Vodafone Germany, this is still not a confirmation since the rollout will actually be initiated by Microsoft and Vodafone is only responsible for testing.

Also September 21st is not Fall yet and joe belfiore tweeted a link to a website stating September 23rd as the start of fall.

That being said, I'm keeping my fingers crossed. The good thing about this rumor is that we will find out in due time.

I think the updates are pushed out by Microsoft. The previous updates I have received for my DVP have been released at 10am Pacific US time (i.e. Microsoft time :)). If it follows the same pattern, you may have a slightly longer wait to find out whether your update is coming today. Feel free to keep checking though, just in case ;)

Also, plugging your phone into your PC (via USB) seems to be the most reliable way of checking if an update is available. The Zune software will alert you if an update is available.
