I'm impressed. I tried the previous Arconiums on ICS which were not that good for a power-user (lag) due to 4.0.3 most likely. Even CM9v121 is not this smooth (also battery is not good on that one). I would say this is just as smooth as the Arconium GB roms! The only downside is it has much smaller internal space to put stuff on, even after removing even more crap. Previously I could manage by just moving most apps to SD with android itself. Now I most likely have to go back to link2sd, hopefully that still works without problems...

Seems that in the end SE delivered. Props.

I will also try to get Toggle2G working. That was quite a battery saver on GB. Probably have to resign the whole rom.

EDIT: updating with Toggle2G didn't work, resigning and a factory reset did work. Nice work!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ironlady:
finally got it working! seems that i had to flashed my doomkernel v5 again ._.

now camping for 4.0.4 kernel and stable arconium release :-----)

edit: my developer's option limit process is still not saved, it will reset to default whenever i reboot phone :confused:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Shark107:
The rom itself looks very smooth, but I can't access Play Store, it keeps freezing as soon as i start it.

The weird thing is I can see the store working on the background, but I can't press anywhere since there's the " Play store is not working " message and I have to click ok to close it.

EDIT

solved by erasing data of Play store
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bassie112:
That's always the case for all roms i tried. But I'm also not sure what is does actually. Does it limit the apps in cache (task manager) or does it limit all apps? Because when it limits all apps then you are going to have serious problems I think cause there are always necessary (user) services running for the apps you installed yourself.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] alfiemenace:
how do you find it so far with this rom? is it as efficient as it is in GB? :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Shark107:
I gotta say, I've been using this ROM for just few hours now but it already seems one of the best ROM I've ever tried, it's probably first place tied to JJ's latest ROM

I really can't decide which one goes better, I guess they are both top class, this one is better if you like Stock Sony interface while JJ's is more AOSP, ICS-oriented use

It's not the first time since I bough the Arc S I can't decide which ROM to use, but it's the first time the reason is " they are both awesome "

Kudos to the dev, this ROM rocks, not the slightest problem so far
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ironlady:
i would like to believe, the processor would carry less load since background processes is limited to 1~4. i set mine to 3 max. the fps drops is quite noticeable without limit set on mame4droid reloaded

though it sickens me that i have to do this manually everytime i reboot the phone
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bassie112:
Yes, like I said everything is just as good or better/faster/more responsive up till now. Battery I can't say, camera I still have to try, Chrome was not smooth on FXP 4.0.4 but maybe it works fine on Sony's 4.0.4... Only downside for me is the limited user space for apps. But I installed link2sd with a 1GB ext2 system partition and it is working fine as far as I can see so that should not be a problem.

I have tried the stock music player, PowerAmp and PlayerPro to play some music through the headphones but the notifications and incoming call sounds come from the speakers. There is any way to avoid this annoying issue? I am using the latest arconium beta Rom.

edit: seems like a bug with the stock rom, tried 4.0.4 and is the same, nothing to do here :(

bug in dialer 3.0c?

Thanks for this smooth and fast ROM. When I'm being called sometimes the dialer is not coming to the front to pick up the phone. The phone rings and I can pick up through the bluetooth headset but not on-screen.

I'm running ArcKnight RC2 and Arconium ICS 3.0c
[Xperia Arc Android Development] krugm0f0:
I was running 468-2000ish mhz on 2.4 with no problems, other than a little less battery life because of the super high clock speed. :p

Lowered it to 1400 now and I haven't seen the reboot ever since.

---------- Post added at 05:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:53 PM ----------

I would like the quickpanel in statusbar dropdown menu too!! :) And a battery % mod.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] tompec:
Yes it is. I didn't try it yet. Some people says it is same as leaked rom. So who know, I am not a cook :)

But it is official ROM ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] spida_singh:
From what ive seen before, it wont contain all the developer bits etc, the official ROM will differ slightly, have the odd few improvements, consumer builds should always be better to use on the phone rather than developer builds.

Spontaneous playing

I don't know if it is bug, but it is curiosity.

Yesterday my Arc started to play a spontaneous song. No app was launched and it wasn't music of ringtone or alarm. I was wondering how it was happened and which app started to play. First time I didn't find reason. And it stopped playing when I check sound settings.

But after few hours it started to play again (mobile was lying on table 2 hours without touching). At that time I found that Poweramp widget changed color and is inactive.

I reboot phone and there was no event again until now.

edit: I'm using ROM 2.4

hey mr.doomed

you have mad a great work on the arc:D:D:D

i have seen this rom on the pro and neo it is called MoKee or something....

it really has awwwwwwwwwwsome UI i think if you can port it with 4.0.4 base it well get you more donations than what Africa ever had LOL:D:D(no offense for African bro's)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ArmorD:
@Doomed, is there any working softbutton mod for 3C? I tried one mod found from themes section, but it caused a bootloop(apparentally not supported by 4.0.4?)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] :
Wow. I had the same idea. Wanted to reply but you said it first. I guess it's in our malay blood? :D

Yes it does. If your using any custom beta kernels remember to flash WiFi modules.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MaxMedia:
I use the Arconium ICS 2.4, and using the system folder "etc, vendor" of the MIUIv4 arconium 2.5.18

And it is into the room very good, very smooth. Smoother than the 4.0.4 fw :)

[Xperia Arc Android Development] jtdc:
Hi doomed151. This is the new ROM that is designed initially for the Arc LT15i right? So this will be the Arconium ICS 4? whoa now the Arc users can taste the real fast and efficient ICS, and its not the one for Arc S!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] arpith.fbi:
i am on Arconium 2.4...but dunno y my phone takes literally 8 seconds to open a message..7-8 seconds to open the contacts...and 1 second delay when u press a number on the keypad..anyone else having this problem? any soln?

How can i fix this?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] melocot:
I have had problems with wifi that when I have tried to connect to my wifi was always authenticating, and doesn't connect. I have solved this flashing again the ROM without wipe, and now it works perfect!

It says that I have an LT18i and I have a SE Xperia Arc.

Thanks for the ROM!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] kickerz14:
Does this rom smooth and snappy on your phone?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] melocot:
My feelings is that is faster than stock 4.0.2.A.0.62 it works very well! I have some crashes with applanet too, but when I have reflashed the ROM it works well too.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] cmross13:
it seems pretty smooth on my Arc. i get a little lag when opening up the market or the photo gallery though. i expect it will only get better with V3+
[Xperia Arc Android Development] kickerz14:
I flashed this rom in this sequence:

ICS advanced stock kernel> Flashed this rom& add ons(my phone is a little bit laggy but tolerable and I'm fine with that)

Did I do this right?

I can't flash the ICS SE beta fw 'cause whenever I flash the system.img it says "the partition is not enough blah blah blah..anyone know how to deal with this problem?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Us3Less:
Did u flash the patch for your BB ? I got the same problem after flashing the patch . Solved the problem by re-flashing v2 without wipe
[Xperia Arc Android Development] voquoccuong:
it seems that arconium ics v2 is the best i've tried, battery is extended
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Sagi1970:
This version is the first Arconium that has no issues for me with ChompSms. It keeps working, no more white (or sometimes black) screens anymore!

I also have the strange bug with battery drain. Untill yesterday I had no battery drain. Yesterfday I switched off wifi and two hours later my battery was empty. I switched wifi off with about 70% batterypower.

When it was loading again, I saw it had 32% left? So 32% is empty?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bassie112:
Arconium on gingerbread is definitely faster. Especially when you have a lot of apps or homescreens. For me it was too slow so I will wait for the final release of Sony.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] sinkster:
I've been trying both this and Z's icelite, with a few build.prop mods and zep's supercharger script. No issues with speed, supercharger script negates any delay in opening apps or multitasking issues, but still getting launcher redraws, which can be pretty annoying.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] bladesuk1:
ah, yes, i did flash the base 64 libraries after the install (i realised i was still on bb36, and thought i should update). i'll give it another try in a bit, see if that sorts it out :)

thanks!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Us3Less:
Tried both bb with the patch , doesnt work ...... I get the same issue as you . Just reflash back v2 , you'll be fine :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Chewitt:
Well its still working great, few minor issues but since its based on a Beta FW version its to be expected.

Cant wait for V3 to come out as it has a lot of bits i like the sound of, i would love to be able to uninstall Google talk and a few other random bits of rubbish.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] stu1978:
Use Root explorer/Titanium backup or similar. Just remove the apk from the system/app folder.

I opened the zip in Winrar before flashing and removed any apk's I didn't want, added a couple of my own then flashed it.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] doomed151:
I've moved it back to system partition. Actually, there's no real benefit uninstalling it or moving it to data partition. First, Talk doesn't have any services running in the background hence zero RAM usage. Second, the system partition has a lot of leftover free space. Why not use it instead of putting it in data partition where installed apps sit?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] cyberdelia:
I did a clean installation of this rom (coming from arconium 7.2).

1. installed DoomKernel ICS

2. installed WiFi module for foomkernel ics

3. From the new recovery, did a reset factory (for a clean installation)

4. installed this rom (v2).. everything ok

5. Since the first config (since Wifi detection), there is a screen problem. The new screen doesn't appear.. it freezes in the previous screen. When I noticed that, I finished the config "remebering" where should be the button to press... But after reboot, it's the same!

What can I do, plz? I tried to wipe dalvik, cache.. fix permissions... all the same..
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Lervly:
Everything is work very well , Thank you very much

I'm found little speed problem just

- delay while press app drawer (Launcher2 , Nova Launcher , Xperia Launcher)

- lag when screen rotation
[Xperia Arc Android Development] honglong:
with this rom installed, is there any special way to relock the bootloader or just re-lock in the usual way? then update via SEUS?

As my LT15i is shown as an LT18i. Would doing this revert it back to LT15i or would I need to do something else?

I am loving ICS so far, but just want to be ready for the official non-beta ICS.

Thanks in advance!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] doomed151:
There is but you have to search in the forum.

But still, you don't need to relock your bootloader. There will be a flashable CWM package once the official ICS update rolls out.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] :
All I know it was designed for both arc and arc s
[Xperia Arc Android Development] LiquidRobotics:
i had the same problem, download was always interrupted, try the "DownThemAll" Firefox-Download-Plugin, for me it solved the problem
[Xperia Arc Android Development] :
Try downloading through the phone itself. I tried it, it works.

doomed, I have alot recommendations. One is to have Chrome Beta available in the custom installation to replace stock browser. One more is to have GameCIH available in the custom installation too.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] drew261920:
ok ill try that :D thanks. have you tried the systemui?

please upload to mediafire always interrupted when downloading
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ArmorD:
What are you talking about?? There's no roms for Arc only, all the Arc S roms are compatible and fully working on LT15. Those two devices are basically identical except Arc S has factory overclocked CPU, but I think they're still the same processors...

Yep. We all know iPhone users protects apple even if they don't know it's specs or difference between apple and android.

Use 3.c. Its faster, more stable for me. Only problem for me is that sometimes Xperia keyboard lags. But the lag goes off in less than 2 sec

that's weird, I have Equalizer on but no matter what I change I can't feel a difference : should I do anything in particular to have it working? DPS Manager worked..

At least it's not working with Stock music player : with the example audio inside Equalizer it works properly

Wow. This Rom changed my life. Because of this Rom, my internet has a limit of 12Gb and I would bypass the internet limit. Just love this!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] HorvathTheWizard:
Sorry... Arconium ICS 3.c is a final version?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bassie112:
No of course not. But there is no reason not to use it. It's based on the pre-release which is (almost?) identical to the final ICS release of the Arc. The next version is maybe based on the real final release and most likely has some more tweaks. But like I said, just flash it, you won't regret it. Then you can just update it when the new Arconium comes.

The question doens't fit perfectly here but i will post it anyway because of the bunch of people with veeeery much more knowledge than i reading this thread ;)

Is it possible (with an app, copying files etc.) to safe the positioning of the icons and created folder of the homescreen and restoring it back after flashing another Rom and/or wiping the device?

That always takes most of the time for me when changing Roms or trying out new versions :(
[Xperia Arc Android Development] omtay2311995:
well i don't have my arc for now but here's a tip worth a try

use Titanium Backup ad backup your launcher and data (for example Xperia home if your on stock) and then restore app and data after flashing the next rom

but it is less likely to work if your shifting from like jj's rom to this one for example due to something about keys of some kind

hey if i help you use my dropbox invite and get your first account and mine another 500MB

I use Apex Launcher and it has an option to make a backup of your home screen settings. Nova launcher also has this option.
