I thought I'd be clever and flash DSP - which works fine with Google Play Music but not with the Sony Music app!

I'd be quite happy with the basic stock equalizer but I don't know what files to flash to get it working...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] rec71:
Anyone know why the basic stock equalizer doesn't work in this ROM? Doomed? Can you help? I really like the stock player but I don't like the Equalizer app available in the Aroma installer...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Dark Fable:
It works for me. Even without selecting the equalizer option during installing.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] rec71:
Weird. I will try flashing again - perhaps one of the Aroma options is causing this.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] sanandreas12:
i got bootloop when flash this rom,even after flash stock 4.0.4 with stock kernel :rolleyes:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] rec71:
Fixed my equalizer issue. I deleted /vendor/etc. Probably there from an old Walkman install.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] KHOJA:
Actually yes .. but i don't know if it just me or i did something wrong ... the battery life is sooo short

so im now on the old update 2.4 ( 4.0.3 )
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Patambiz:
Im currently using this rom. Any plan to update?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] tompec:
There is a new FW 4.1.B.0.587 announced for 2011 Xperias so maybe it could be updated ??? :fingers-crossed:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] rec71:

Three times in the last 4.days with this rom my phone has completely frozen requiring a battery pull. This happened the last time I used this rom a few months ago. Has anyone else had this happen to them? I'm running the stock kernel, software rendering but no other mods at all. Looking for some ideas...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Dark Fable:
I bought a new phone waiting for an update on this ROM. :P
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Patambiz:
This is the best rom Ever. I tried all the Rom on XDA Arc Android Development and it always keeps me getting back here ::) The best.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bajsmumsaren:
ROM freezing up completely requiring battery pull

My friend has this exact same problem with this ROM. I'm probably going to abandon it and run CyanogenMod or something more stable, because he's not impressed with the rooted experience because of this ;)

He's running:

Android 4.0.4

kernel 2.6.32.9-perf

Arconium ICS 4.0 (4.1.b.0.431)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] DzikBagienny:
I confirm that.

Also great battery life with XArc kernel.

btw. With this ROM I suggest to use XArc kernel - awesome battery life

doomed151 doesn't reply. I am guessing no more update. He said in the last post "Development stopped".

doomed151's last post said this:

There will be an update, just that there won't be any major new stuff.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=29434152&postcount=2513

My guess is he's waiting for the next Sony update (possibly the 4.1.B.0.587 build certified on PTCRB on August 10th).

So ... patience people!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] :
I quoted doomed151's second last post. If there is an update he said it will be a minor one. But why this long? I never seen him like this. Take a look at his second last post.

He was being sarcastic. Hence the SARCASTIC smiley he used!

What do people expect him to do with this until there is a new Sony 4.0.4 update anyway? And that Sony update may be very soon so hang tight!

The first time it boot pretty work ,but after i flashed the baseband64 ,it loop on the xperia logo then reboot,even i flash another room it still that same problem.

I forgot to download mms and internet options thats why it didn't worked.

Now everything is working like charm.

Thank you for this great ROM

I don't know if this is kernel or rom related but my arc isn't able to play .m4a audio files. On gingerbread I had no problem listening to it.

I'm running v2 of this rom.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] gueszman:
I can't see the subtitles when im playing a movie or something like thtat...using HDMI out....

I have the latest update and all works like a charm.. but that is an issue that i have since the 1st zip.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bumax:
It's prolly SE beta releated and not Arconium, but battery issue is like GB 2.3.4.

Sometimes it start eating battery (android os) very wild and sometimes it works like it should. Reboot usualy helps.

Few times battery drains in few hours from 100% to 0% and sometimes it goes easily 2 days. (same with all Arconium releases).
[Xperia Arc Android Development] mafiapanda:
Would it be possible to change the whole theming to stock ics, instead of the ugly Xperia one?

Like vannila ICS as it should be:)

Other than that, AWESOME rom! (would love more features though)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jtc42:
I dont suppose anyone has managed to get the leaked Xperia S apps running on this have they? The new clock app is so much better than the one built into this, but it just seems to FC whenever I use it.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] everb00b:
its an 4.0.3 issue, google released 4.0.4 to fix it.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Chewitt:
Thats odd, im getting 38% better battery than i used to get with the GB Arconium not had one battery issue yet.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] CrazyPeter:
It's intermittent, something will trigger it, and the battery will drain and the phone will get hot...

It's done it to me on all the ICS ROMs, I have gone back to Gingerbread as it's a serious problem for me. It's a shame, as aside from this, it's a exceptionally stable release.

I can use Xperia's SemcPhone.apk couldn't try anything else yet..

But it would be awesome to have those widgets,apps etc. !

And can you disable scrolling cache if you didn't done yet ?

Thank you for this great ROM.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] ajgftw:
I agree. It's not his fault he got it right before all the other roms. He has got ics perfect, why not be thankful, give the man some space, and let him rest up before we ask him very nicely to make us a jelly bean arconium ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] datas0ft:
I was previously "Grand High Hardware" man. Used HTC HD2 with android. This was good combination of hightech hardware and software. Long time searched new interesting phone. I found it. Its Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc S for me.

Found this great, minimalistic, stable and battery loving rom. Superior.

As we all know Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc S has very small hardware glitch. It is small and hard pressed power button. Annoying. Yesterday i got the idea - why not make two small changes to avoid this power button problem. I just don have clue where start and how.

This idea dont have one solution and maybe these solutions will be not easy done. I hope someone can do it or help me to right direction!

First thing is on lockscreen, when you woke up your phone. Actually here have two possible versions editing.

- to put phone to sleep (screen off with power button) can be done with long press to Home button. This is good too, when your phone in pocket and accidentally wake up.

- to put phone to sleep (screen off with power button) can be done with changing lockscreen camera button to sleep button (or screen off or etc)

Second thing is when you phone is awake. I know for this have special app, but why app if can be inside rom itself.

- to put phone to sleep (screen off with power button) can be done with long press Menu button

- to put phone to sleep (screen off with power button) can be done with long press Back button

- to put phone to sleep (screen off with power button) can be done with long press Menu or Back button

Sorry about my poor english.

A bit off topic, but wanted to make you guys aware of the new FW released.

Doesn't look like a lot has changed, im sure doomed151 will work is magic with this sooner or later.

I'm going to flash this with my KTG Kernel and report back in the relevant thread.

Arconium is normally re-based on new FW when released. Just sharing the info.

I can't expect him to release an update. He looks busy with school. He didn't reply so thats my prove. My point is you guys should move on to another ROM while waiting. I don't think there will be an update. He hasn't update us with any news.

Little Patch Download
[Xperia Arc Android Development] OceanXRun:
It ur ROM mod ?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soumya_digi:
The tweaks are from Arconium 4, it is just rebased on the new firmware, with deodexed framework, since doomed151 was not updating this thread, so I made it for you guys to try it out. I just installed it now and it's working fine. I only missed out patched services.jar and stereo recording for camcorder. :p

If people are interested, then I can make these two available as a small patch, and later reupload the whole ROM with edited changelog in AROMA installer and updated apps. :)

All credits goes to doomed151! :angel:

can i flash the kernel and this ROM over the old 4.0 without loosing my apps i can't install titanium backup for some reason in 4.0
[Xperia Arc Android Development] :
Tell me a kernel for it.

For now i dont think this will make any difference. The only changes is the baseband. Right now i would recommend the rom from Sega. He has a kernel to go with that and it seems pretty fast and smooth with a hell of a good battery life.

To doomed151, hopefully you can give soumya_digi the perms to continue updating your Rom with tweaks he chooses as he please.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] OceanXRun:
I think you should create a topic about this new ROM is more, not just in this topic, but you must master it.

I will test and respond to your earlier ROM version provided that you have to do and so you must create a new topic with more detailed information about this ROM.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soumya_digi:
I don't use ICS, so can't tell anything about the newer versions of ICS OC kernels. :silly: Honestly, the video recorder is working far better than anything I tried previously. (on .431 even with all those updated libs, and blah blah blah. :rolleyes:)

I haven't done anything new or magical to start a new thread unnecessarily. :o The forum is already filled with similar type of ROMS, and I don't want to do the same. This is doomed151's work, and I'm not eligible to do such things. Once he himself update this ROM, I'll remove my files immediately. :cyclops:

Yes yes, you can flash it over the old 4.0. You'll not lose any data. But still, a nandroid backup is recommended. :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] spida_singh:
Does the patch include all remaining tweaks, such as stereo camera recording as stated before? Nice work.

Did you port the same tweaks, or update them and include the updated tweaks with the ROM. i know doomed used to update tweaks when tey were released.

Will test it shortly. FYI, i always use the KTG Kernel. Been running great.

Regards
[Xperia Arc Android Development] marvvv:
I'm also going to test it, i'm using the ArcKnight kernel 3.3.

EDIT: Experiencing an error while installing the patch:

I get an error 6 while installing it
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soumya_digi:
I'll check it tomorrow.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] spida_singh:
I can also confirm the status 6 issue. No running in CWM when trying to Apply the patch.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] FAdrums:
Status 6 means that the script waa edited in windows. You'll need to open the script with notepad++/edit/EOL/ and convert it to linux! :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] spida_singh:
For all scripts?

EDIT

Tried that, now status 0. Install aborted.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] marvvv:
Glad to hear that, I was scared that it was a low memory issue.

After some testing this rom seems to be working perfectly fine (without patch). In my opinion a little better then Arconium 4.0. Battery life is better (i think its baseband related (77) ) Smoother in some aspects, not sure though because things always seem to be smoother after a fresh install. Found no major issues so far, the only problem im having is that I cant resize widgets at the moment. Phone app is faster, but still no led notifications for sms/whatsapp.. (come on sony.. Really?!??) Games performance is better. Screen now rotates in landscape (wasnt included in previous versions in official ICS If i remember correctly) And works fine with NXT Transformation pack version 2/Google Now

Thanks man, im glad someone rebased it!

Patch

Try the one attached.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] spida_singh:
I cross referenced both files in the patch zip and 4.0a ROM, and amended the existing ones to include the changes in both files (so now no need to flash additional patch ZIP for me). Also included the Sony Xperia GX apk's that were all compatible with the Arc

Launcher

Conversations

Album

Home + HomeAdd...etc

by manually adding the apk's into the corefiles / app folder (Aroma installs everything in this folder automatically and sets permissions, so I also included a couple of apps i normally re-install)

I replaced tweaks with those from KTG Kernel tweaks zip and placed these into the init.d folder (includes ZRAM swap).

Manually added a full set of ringtone and notification files in the media folder.

Zipped up the ROM and flashed after a full wipe, now runs really snappy and looks great. Used quite a lot of battery from some app installs etc, now its settled, battery has more or less flat lined over the couple of hours. Willing to share the ROM if the doomed and Soumya don't mind.

Many thanks for your work guys (ROM, Kernel and Dev team).

Regards
[Xperia Arc Android Development] :
Well you need a kernel that can run on this baseband.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soumya_digi:
I would say let people follow your steps and do it on their own, so that they learn some stuffs and be self dependent. :cowboy: And also modifying the original Arconium with other tweaks and other apps will make it something else, so let's keep it simple. :) I hope you get my point.

I didn't get you! :( You can use any .431 based ICS kernel, with whatever baseband you have. It'll not be a problem.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] :
I dont think so. If so, people would use doomkernel. However having its development stop and stuck on the older baseband, no one is unable to use it with updates coming from rom. You need a kernel to run for that specific baseband. Otherwise errors may occur. Thats what i know.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soumya_digi:
Believe me, try using any .431 based kernel like Arcknight, KTG, XArc and you'll not face any problem with whatever baseband you use. Right now I'm using GB with BB72 and DoomKernel v22, and I have no issues, even though BB72 was introduced with ICS .431. Baseband is not a great thing to bother IMO if you have great signal and less power consumption for the cell antenna.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] :
Okay then. Nice to know.
