You may need to downgrade this as it "breaks root" on some roms, apparently.

Just tried Gingerbreak again, still getting the same "Could not extract assets!" error.

So I've just downloaded and installed superuser3-alpha.apk but this now has the following message when I try to update it's binary.... The application superuser (process com.noshufou.android.su) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again...

I've also just tried Gingerbreak again with the new SU installed, and still getting the extract assets error.

if you are still trying to work it from clockwork mod, have you updated / installed your busybox and superuser.. (gives you the priveledged commands) *clutching at straws now"

have you tried flashing a recovery through adb?, your rom needs to contain flash_image, im guessing that it doesn't and this is what is causing all the problems..

about the error connecting your phone to the computer, if you want to get apk's on try taking out the micro sim and then connecting that to your computer to put on the downloaded to your computer apk file (also stating the obvious.)

Please tell me if I'm being proper stupid....(which is highly likely!)

I've installed ADB and using the cmd it detects the device when it's switched and plugged in via USB. I really don't understand the command prompts, but managed the basic adb devices which shows the serial number of my phone.

Would I be right in saying that the the location of say Rootme on my sdcard would literally be /sdcard/RootMe.apk if it's not in any folder? So in theory, if I wanted to install it from there I would use the command line... adb install /sdcard/RootMe.apk? as currently it's telling me "can't find '/sdcard/RootMe.apk

I can install apk's using Astro, so there's no problem there. I've also tried following the command prompts in the guide above, but it doesn't recognise "adb shell mount /sdcard" or even "mount -a."

Am I being proper stupid, is it simple and it's just me making it hard???

I've renamed it heroimg.zip, herodiag.zip and also pc10img.zip as suggested but it's still coming up with the above problems.

So I am thinking about rooting my r800at with SuperOneClick but I was just wondering. Why root? What are the benefits of it and what can I do if I root?
[Xperia Play General] Spectre51:
Remove bloat apps. Change settings that require root such as setInstallLocation. Basically have more control of your device.
[Xperia Play General] leots:
You can also backup your apps and data and restore them whenever you want. Keep older versions of apps and stuff! :D
[Xperia Play General] sufy1000:
There's no point rooting now as Ice Cream Sandwich is coming out. You can freeze apps in ICS so no need rooting :)
[Xperia Play General] Jordanooo:
I wouldnt say theres no point. Rooting doesnt just allow you to freeze apps
[Xperia Play General] prscarp:
Personally, the app Link2SD alone is more than enough reason to root for me. Not to mention being able to get a custom boot animation, add the bravia engine, get rid of bloatware, and the list could go on and on.

I would use the flashtool from THIS thread and use the zergRush method to root your phone in flashtool's menu. I can confirm this works perfectly.
[Xperia Play General] Logseman:
Imagine that you have a broom. It's yours, so if you use it as a lever for example, it's nobody's business but yours, and only you bear the responsibility if your use of it causes harm to yourself or somebody else. It's pretty much the same situation with your computer. It's yours, so you can use it for any purpose that computers can be used for. That it performs better or worse is nobody's business but yours: if you use a super duper gaming computer for checking Facebook or a netbook as a workstation it's up to you, and again, you bear the responsibilities of those uses. And again, if you want to wipe the software inside that computer and use other software, or program your own and use it, it's up to you. You have administrator rights in your own computer, which in Unix terms is called "root access".

That is not true in smartphones (which are computers, remember). They come capped by default. You don't have administrator rights by default. You bear the same responsibilities as in the previous caseS, but your rights are limited. And that's not sane. "Rooting" only returns what's yours to you. It restores sanity to the order of things, and delivers you from company lock-ins. Companies now are trying to go against people because they try to get to own their smartphones by restricting functions if they happen to have rooted phones. Curiously enough, no one seems to object against all those computers with the same administrator rights out there.

I don't see any "advantage" that I should mention, even if people can tell you different things like removing bloatware our whatever. It's much simpler: it's the matter of making what you have paid for truly yours.

Hi Guys,

I Flashed Offical ICS Release for Xperia ARC S to my Xperia ARC, like many of us.

After few hours of usage.

I noticed, sometimes my ARC can't response properly to my touch.

Like, i try swipe left from home screen it swipe back itself.

it is also happening when im using Browser (Any Browser)

Sometimes, It's doing weird things after i touch it.

(BTW I checked my all other fingers and they are not touching to the screen )

And i remember, Xperia ARC's and ARC S's display drivers are different.

Is it driver related problem ?

Or is it just me seeing weird things :)

If it is driver related, will it be fixed when Offical ICS for Xperia ARC released ?

Thank you for reading.

Sorry for my English.

Best Regards.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Candy[MAN]:
Are you running the ICS Arc S firmware on the vanilla Arc (LT15)?

If so, that may be it. I remember reading from Sony stating that there is a minor difference in screen (hardware/software...cannot remember which) when comparing the Arc S to the original Arc.

That could explain why Arc users may be experiencing a little touch delay when running the official Arc S ICS Rom.

I have the same problem with Temple Run (Arc S) on the final ICS release.

I also occasionally open a game like Angry Birds, Frisbee, etc. and the touch controls just don't work at all. Other apps are fine (Draw Something for example). Sometimes a reboot fixes it - sometimes I have to power off/on.

It's driving me nuts.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doomed151:
Single touch responsiveness is just as good as GB over here.

Simultaneous dual touch (tapping two fingers at the same time) on the other hand, is a different story. Most of the time it only registers the first touch and the second touch is slightly late.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AtxX:
I believe it's matter of faulty screen drivers. No problems on homescreen, but definitely in many apps (angry birds, great little warfare, temple run etc.). Hope that someone will port those to ICS.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sbehring:
Same problem on my Arc S (Arconium ICS 1.0, factory reset before flashing). The problem occures only in games (Angry Birds, Age of Zombies, Air Attack,...). All other apps are OK (Opera browser, Sygic Navigator, gmail,...).
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moxtrom:
i've that issue too, but using the developer setting (to see the pointer), the screen is corrrectly detecting everything, i think that there is not a drivers problem:

any other cellphone has this problem in ICS?

i also find that some game using virtual joystick have same issue!
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caqo71:
So, who's to be blamed?. ICS having poor touch responseness, or game developers has to update their games to be compatible with ICS screens?. What about other brands?, HTC, Samsung, LG, Motorola Etc. does they have same issues???
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hootnath:
It happens while charging if there is too much current coming from the power source. You should use only official charger with both the phone n the original a.c. Adapter for your laptop too. Also make sure your socket has earthing

JFYI this happens on other devices too that i have had, my Samsung n htc ones. After prolonged period of usage with motorola charger on my htc it's screen started causing this even when on battery. I guess some capacitors must have gotten blown or malfunctioned permanently inside.

Also, I noticed this on all my devices coincidentally after installing Cyangenmod. If the device gets hot while playing the games if you let it cool down the problem goes away.

Thankfully i was cautious with my arc n it runs awesome as long as it's either not on a surge prone or non grounded elecitric line, or a laptop connected to one.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbsk2:
However, our case is not happened during charging...it happened during normal use.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] visarya:
The fact that issue is mostly with the third party apps , points to some ics api compatibility more than driver issue. But then not sure how it suddenly starts happening and stop after the restart.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hootnath:
your touchscreen may have already gotten damaged earlier. my g1 and galaxy nexus both have permanantly messed up screens now. i discovered the cause of it too late.

if thats not the case then maybe its an issue with regional models or some specific apps or tweaks that you have installed.

the new adreno drivers are for the gpu. its possible that you have some trojan, a pirated-app or a misbehaving background process. run os monitor or system tuner to see whats using your battery and cpu so you know.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] estuardo4:
Hootnath, it would be a good idea if you can test your screen response using Temple Run or some other touch based game. It's impossible to play those games. And they run fine on GB. It's something about touch drivers on ICS. I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm just saying that those games can't be played with our Arc and ICS.

I can also confirm this on temple run running official ICS on my Neo V...damn u touchscreen!

One thing Im sure though, its definitely NOT hardware. I rolled back to GB and problem went away. Installed a CLEAN update 2 hours ago and the problem persisted. IMO, it has to be the drivers.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] caqo71:
I think that people must stop blaming developers about Signal troubles, along with TouchScreen problems. These are issues excuisive from Sony and its official rom.

I really think that te .562 rom just born to make them on time releasing it, but it's full of bugs. Baseband 70 is very ugly and faulty, and screen is the less touch thing in the world.

As I understand, Touch Screen on ICS Should be the same as GB. There is no reason for them to make a different usability of the screen. If not, all game developers should modify all the games that they created, and it's not the idea.

Just My thinking.
