Am I the only one having MMS issues? Despite setting the APN right i cannot receive nor send mms messages.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ajgftw:
Maybe not, I had just assumed it was because I had no reception as I often do where I live, but now that you mention it... None have ever worked, sending or receiving. To be honest it's not something I use a lot.

Maybe a third user could confirm these symptoms???
[Xperia Arc Android Development] pveyes:
Thanks it works, but can it be brighter?

I've used other ROM before and its led is brighter than from this arconium
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Kajendran:
Am I the only one having the missed call led notification not working...????
[Xperia Arc Android Development] LiquidRobotics:
No, that´s an Android 4.0.4 Bug, with the Fix the NotificationLed works basically but not for missed Calls, we´ll have to wait for new fixes
[Xperia Arc Android Development] noim:
will this ROM work on a Locked Bootloader ? as i won't want to unlock my bootloader.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] eawert:
No, it won't. You have to unlock it.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] boubouch31:
Yeah, agree with that. It's strange...

Try it, if it's work you will get back the ringtone ;) if not you will continu to look Youtube videos ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ArcMan09:
i dont know but .

Why i m getting 3mb free space in system partition.

after flashing this rom..?

its very less space.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] :
Gratz doomed. U successfully made most ppl shut their mouths up about bugs :D

In a good way of course :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Daniel D.:
It works with unlocked bootloaders! I use it currently on my locked Arc S.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] N01tra:
That's because just about every .apk from /vendor/app (and possibly) /data/app has been moved to /system/app.

If you want or need more free space on the system partition, all you have to do is move application (titanium/explorer/etc) or widgets (timescape/statusswitch/deskclock/etc) from /system/app to /data/app & reboot.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Overdose1986:
you can try formating /system and a full wipe before flashing this rom
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ArcMan09:
I Did a Full wipe.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] LiquidRobotics:
You can open the .zip with winrar and go to system/app and delete the apk´s you don´t need, that´s what i do every time.

So i can do an update only with the apps i want and didn´t need to remove them afterwards.

But be a little carefull that you don´t delete systemapps, you can use this list to look what can be save deleted:

[Xperia Arc Android Development] tompec:
do you have any idea how to delete apps in vendor directory ? I can not do it with any of managers...(nor TB)

use root explorer to do so. Go to that directory, set the dir to read and Write R/W and then delete the apps that you don't want in your phone.

Best Kernel

After few days of this version ROM, could anyone recommend me battery safe kernel ? I tried all three recommended here (I am on stock currently) and I still feel that battery draining is too big. I also tried official ROM and I have same feeling from this. Isn't it problem of ROM 4.0.4 instead of kernel ?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] LiquidRobotics:
Try the ArcKnight or Trinity Kernel, i´m using Trinity Kernel at the moment and it has awesome Batterylife (about 36-48h)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bassie112:
That means you are the problem as the stock one does not have a battery drain and from my experience with doomkernel it hasn't either. Be sure you don't have apps on the background which use the cpu/gpu/network/gps constantly. Also don't use full brighness as a default but use something like 50-75%.

Many people confuse a drain with bad usage. It's still a mobile device so stuff like 3g/screen/gps/load will drain it's battery no matter what you do.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] ArcMan09:
Why arc s firmware to arc..?

Arc should be flashed with the only arc firmware..

But there would be issues..?

Do u think that.?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] nexx67:
I don't know excactly why, but there is much more free space on system (420MB) and internal (440MB) partitions with arc S firmware (no vendor partition).

I have no issue on mine, I only need to use LT15i kernel.

Just silly question :cyclops: Do you think we can expect ROM based on JB Android ? ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] arpith.fbi:
Arconium is based on Sony's stock ICS..so unless Sony doesnt release JB for sony phones we cannot port it so Arc s..

Once JB source code is released by google, teams like CyanogenMod will start working on it.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] tompec:
Yes I see. Maybe it will be ported for Xperia S, but I have doubts about Arc/S.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] caqo71:
some devs in here will be able to port some app's from JB to ICS for ARC/S for sure, so expect some new development in a few weeks.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ironlady:

[Xperia Arc Android Development] :
Hey doomed151! Your Rom is amazingly fast! Ever thought of Arconium Jellybean?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MaxFTW:
Haven't you already noticed that, Arconium ROM is based (and it looks) on Sony stock?! Thinking logically, there will be now Arconium Jelly Bean unless Sony releases Android 4.1 for Xperia 2011 smartphones. According to official Sony thread (on their forum, btw) we have to wait 18 months for update. I'm sure I will not use my arc S then anymore, because I change phones averagely every six/seven months. Anyway, I will have that phone (used by my father probably). 1,5 month is a long time, so don't even anticipate. Cyanogenmod 10 based on Android 4.1 Jelly Bean is planned to be released in October/November.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] joecool1029:
Getting reboots pretty frequently on V3. Seems like whenever I throw phone in pocket it reboots. Doesn't seem to do it on its own in a chair except for maybe when switching WCDMA to GSM and vice-versa.

Still no luck figuring out how to get voice search and voice typing without crashing. Otherwise, everything else works fine and it's snappy.

Turning on Force GPU rendering in developer options seemed to help greatly on smoothness and responsiveness. I hear it will cause higher memory usage but no issues so far.

Oh, and I'm using advanced stock kernel.

As this is your first post on this thread, I'm assuming you are installing v3 for the first time. Do you have all the requirements listed on the OP? If yes, did you erase the cache/dalvik/system data?

I believe you need to write down more information so the experts here (I'm not one of them) can help you.

Best Regards.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] melocot:
I'm trying the V3 now:

I have made a fresh install with this steps:

Enter fastboot mode (hold menu while insert the usb cable)

Flash the kernel: [Kernel][Arc S] Stock ICS Beta Kernel with CWM 5.5.0.4 (usb mount error fixed)

Enter recovery (volume down in led blue):

Wipe data/factory reset

Flash the main ROM: [ROM][ARC/ARC S] arconium ICS v3 - New features! [4.1.C.0.7][2 Mar]

Flash add-on: update-arconium-ICS-FB_TS-v2.zip (8.42 MB / 2 Mar) Facebook inside Xperia and Timescape

reboot

And now connected with plan data and no wifi drains less the battery than when I have wifi activated but not connected to any wifi and using the 3G plan data, as it should be.

So "Stock ICS Beta Kernel with CWM 5.5.0.4" and "ICS Arconium v3" fixes the "no wifi" drain battery problem.

Short review

(I just unlocked my bootloader 2 days ago. It's not my first experience with custom ROMs as I already have installed several for my previous phones and my friends' phones, but this is the first time for my arc S, so I went ahead and installed Stock with CWM kernel, then decided to install Arconium.)

After 2 days with Arconium, I must say this ROM is really stable and it really does feel optimized compared to my previous stock experience, feels more responsive, some apps loads faster, WiFi also connects faster, battery life is more or less the same if not better - which is good.

If I have to give suggestion, it would be to have Xperia S walkman, messaging, gallery, notes and lockscreen but only if stable and not buggy. Maybe include exDialer to improve telephony experience for people who doesn't know exDialer.

For me this ROM is perfect at the moment, enhances my stock experience but doesn't neglect stability.

Thanks :good:

one more thing, wich is the best launcher or home.apk to use in this room? i mean xperia s home.apk v2 is smooth but it gets laggy sometimes on app drawer
[Xperia Arc Android Development] :
For the facebook, it isnt the roms fault. Many complain on the Google Play. I also experience the same thing.

Edit:

Chrome also has bugs. I mean it still is in Beta mode. Plus did you select Software rendering? If you did, chrome will not work. You will loose compatibility of most applications such as chrome.
