I'm upgrading from 1.1 no checked delete /data :) And working all of apps not delete the updater :) Fantastic. The touch is working in AROMA Installer. Build.prop ok too :) My phone is Arc (LT15i).

Does anybody got any problem with battery drain on 2.1? Today I came home with 30%. Took the phone in the morning from charger.

Before 2.1, with 1.1 or 2.0 I am having about 60-70% with same ussage.

:(

I plan to check the battery drain with Battery Stats during tomorrow.

If no change, I will switch to 2.0

I've been using V2.1 (Aroma Installer Version) during the morning and I must say I'm very impressed doomed! I didn't add any tweaks or anything, just flashed my V5 Kernel OC to 1.2GHZ and the phone feels really smooth and Memory Management is awesome!

Good Job on getting this together...

Have you got data sync on?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] lofty5:
just a quick question. Do we have to flash the baseband everytime we install a new update package?

btw touchscreen sensitivity in the installer is much better still not quite there though but definitely has improved since 2.0. The installer has actually grown on me now i like being able to see realtime progress of the install gj.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Retrosid:
Nope. You install baseband once.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] doomed151:
Regarding battery life, if you're using a custom kernel at this point then it's very likely the drain is caused by the kernel itself. Use stock kernel with CWM for maximum battery life.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Retrosid:
I also suggested that but it got ignored. So bump for it!

I found rootcause of my battery drain... :p

So stupid and simple-> I was playing with widgets, and forgot to remove it afterwards.(youtube)

So it was constantly updating the previews, so I was still downloading some data whole day.. after removed, the battery drain is back(that good one)

So sorry for my stupidity, next time I will do more detail investigation by myself before I ask stupid question... :rolleyes:

[Xperia Arc Android Development] Ivanprskalo:
You're right, I stand corrected. :o

Those were never part of Arconium but part of xperiamod by SayamSassi, and I used both of these ROMs back in GB days so from there is my confusion.:confused:

Again, sorry for my mistake, but still it would be nice to add those useful things..:rolleyes:

Hope someone can help me with this..till now i still cant figure out how to set up my contacts..:(

and i've encountered a few times where my arc would be stuck at the part where if you pinch the home screen,the widgets will all sort of minimise right? My arc is stuck there,except without the widget,only the "Exit Overview" below is visible,as well as the status bar and background.

When this happens,im stuck,cant click anything and had to reboot..

Is new adreno driver included in this rom?If no can i flash it?

[Xperia Arc Android Development] Retrosid:
After I updated I don't have the SIM toolkit and it wasn't included in the install menu :(
[Xperia Arc Android Development] doomed151:

[Xperia Arc Android Development] lofty5:
How about installing an alternative lockscreen would that work?

edit scratch that just installed aosp makes no difference. Sucks. I listen to music whilst riding a motorbike so this particular feature keeps pausing my tunes when im on my bike, lmao. Don't really want to use a different player because the stock one is great imo.

@doomed151

You may consider replacing Sony's contacts and dialer apps with AOSP ones. Imo AOSP apps are so much better and faster. Maybe as an option in AROMA installer? It would be great. I know it's not as easy as just replacing apks but JJdoctor and zdzihu managed to do this. I don't want to make any demands but I think it would be very nice option in AROMA. Thanks for great work, mate!

I've got my internet and mms settings right after installation. No need to download anything. Once I had this problem with baseband 36. After flashing 64 or 70, full wipe and flashing rom once again problem was solved.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] doomed151:
Hmm, it works perfectly here. Did it work on stock ICS?

Probably, use something like WidgetLocker or GO Locker

From what I've seen, current builds of Total Commander have expiry dates? If there's no "permanent" verson, I don't think I'm going to include it.

About TB, did you get that issue? Android should copy the libs automatically.

Don't think so.

Sorry?

ext3 may not be supported on your device. Try FAT32 on the second partition.

Same when I create partitions via PC or trying ext2 or ext4:(

I perform every step described in tutorial but still same message ... when I create 2 FAT32 partitions, Arc want to format it and ext2/3/4 doesn't mount ...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] doomed151:
Make sure the partition is Primary (not Logical) and is placed after the second partition.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] LiquidRobotics:
Again nice Work doomed,

i made some "tweaks" for myself, replaced some apk´s (widgetonoff, datatrafficswitch, defaultthemes & systemUI) in the .zip with modded apk´s before flashing the ROM.

No problem with the Touch in AROMA Installer.

Everythink is working really great. :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] marvvv:
This is the best ICS Rom for the Arc out there in my opinion. I underclocked it to 768mhz and its still smooooth!! This gives nearly 35 hours of battery life with normal usage! Amazing!

Well done Doomed!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] iqlogic:
Yes, I do. Do you think that there may be a problem?

So I flash new Arconium 2.2 (btw many thanks for your really amazing support), default Dalvik-cache, create EXT2 partition and all is working now. Thanks for advice :cool:

Could you please separate Sony stock weather widget in aroma installer.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] blackbird_pt:
Hi there,

Im getting about 1% out of the juice of the battery per hour, in standby mode of course.

I already got 3 days of battery with normal mode, ok, not that much of wifi, or other stuff, but with some tricks, we can get a lot of juice from the Arc S with this Rom and Doomlord kernel, or Jimbo Kernel, just put a black picture in background, and you will see a big difference in battery.

Remember, bright lights is one thing that costs juice in battery, not everyone remembers that, and have, active screens and beatifull pictures, with battery costs.

For me, this ROM + DOOMLORD Kernel + some tricks= The best performance with fantastic battery.

Thx man, keep it coming, i simple love your Rom!!, fast and smotth, with great support,...

Amazing work.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Flo95:

Getting some serious lags when playing dead space, sometimes it even reboots. I'm hoping that this will be fixed in the next release. I'm using a lt15i with stock kernel and baseband 70

Gosh. Most of you don't know how to flash the Rom.

Step1: Flash baseband 70 using flashtool.

Step2: Flash kernel using fastboot.

Step3: Flash Rom via Recovery.

Step4: Select install Rom, then select custom installation.

Step5: Pick your phone model and what apps you want to install or don't want to install.

Step6: Install. Done like that
[Xperia Arc Android Development] :
I don't think it is Rom related or kernel related. Most games have not support ICS Roms and ICS Roms have game bugs
