Last night I played music audio from 12am to 7AM, can not believe it is a battery back down quickly so mad from 100% -> 38%. I hope the next update will fix errors like energy drain current and more complete.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Aprentice_:
Battery life is great on V4. with normal usage (WIFI, HSDPA, exchange, gmail, messaging, voice calls, little music and apps...) am not getting less than 1d, 14h.

V4, Stock kernel 431 CWM, baseband 70
[Xperia Arc Android Development] OceanXRun:
U use stock kernel , im use thsega kernel v2 :D .
[Xperia Arc Android Development] :
Wow. I didn't realize u had a rom. I will try it out with your kernel Sega!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] TheGreatSega:
So... I'm thinking of starting production of ThSEGA on Ray, play, mini, mini pro and active... Do you guys think it's a good idea??

I've already released ThSEGA for neo/v and got positive feedback...

Don't worry... All my ROMS will be updated regularly!!

Sent from ThARC
[Xperia Arc Android Development] :
It's a good idea. Can I ask? I tried flashing it but it returned me with a flash aborted. Also hotfile took me to download your rom in 16 hours with my broadband speed of 100mbps. It's really hard if you ask me to retry the download. Perhaps another mirror?? Thanks

[Xperia Arc Android Development] franzfrontal:
I can't install version 4 because the phone always reboot!...i try to install first version 3 and then version 4 but nothing!... i'm on stock kernel!

What do i do to install correctly your rom?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] besttt:
dont install new release soon out
[Xperia Arc Android Development] TheGreatSega:
apologies

i apologies for the time taken to release V5!! my computer is down and im working from my laptop... also i have college exams and im trying my level best to pass!!! LOL!!

i know that these are not excuses but bare with me... when it comes out it will be one of the best ROMs for ARC/S...

i've also been testing other ROMs and making sure v5 is better...

its way more customizable and much quicker!!.. and as always i have a surprise!!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Aprentice_:
Take your time but give us a very good release.

As mentioned earlier, there is a lag when using the Xperia S UI and a lot of redraws.

Hope:

The boot animation is simple.

Multimedia shortcuts (pics/video/audio) is missing in V4, no shortcut to videos and music I guess since Xperia gallery is missing.

restore the Xperia gallery.

resolve the error when opening Album (Unfortunately, Connected devices has stopped) and I get the same error when launching the music player.

change the screen lock from the boring Xperia lock to the ICS one.

Also connected devices is not working on V4, always FC.

include nice wallpapers like in V2.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] TheGreatSega:
!!!

media shortcuts wont work with nxt ui!!

the bootanimation is new and is awesome

for connected devices... uninstall the app and install the stock one from arc 4.0.4 not XS 4.0.4

the new lockscreen from XS should already be installed!! on V4
[Xperia Arc Android Development] OceanXRun:
Waitting is boring :D , release fast Sega :D .
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Patambiz:
Can you make Media Fire Download link. Hotfile is slow. I would love to test the ROM
[Xperia Arc Android Development] TheGreatSega:
not possible

my ROMS are more than 200mb in size... and mediafire wont let me upload unless i get an account....

maybe if some of you help me out i could get the account?? =D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] longthanh:
Mediafire account is free, you can get it yourself or you can split your rom into multi part then upload it without an account:D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] TheGreatSega:
=(

its only free if your package is less than 200mb and i cant split the ROM as it installs using AROMA
[Xperia Arc Android Development] wth_is_life:
What about minus.com ?

It has MF-like speed, your account gets 50 GB free and 1 GB/file :D

Should be great for uploading ROM imo

AROMA is in V5 right ?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] TheGreatSega:
solution

i have found a solution to this.. and its a good one at that!!!

i will not say as it will ruin the suprise =)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] wth_is_life:
Hoping to see your V5 soon, then I'll try this ROM :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Patambiz:
Can you put it on Mediafire? The hotfile scares me.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] wth_is_life:
Bootloop with V4 :(
[Xperia Arc Android Development] TheGreatSega:
V5 test

im going to be uploading a v5 test rom... how many of you will test??
[Xperia Arc Android Development] wth_is_life:
I will, if it's up tomorrow :D

[Xperia Arc Android Development] OceanXRun:

[Xperia Arc Android Development] tajimura:

Why did you get boot loop?? On the first installation it takes a lot pour time... If you chose arc s in aroma then you may get boot loop.. Install using arc

Still have bootloop, with your kernel and arcknight kernel..

edit: with arcknight kernel, it seems to stuck at boot animation without reboot
[Xperia Arc Android Development] OceanXRun:
Bootloop , i do everything u say but alway bootloop . Hope u fix now .
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Oscar-Mark:
No offense but what are the real changes in the ROM?

And what is Aroma installer, want more than just a simple answer never heard of it before.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] wth_is_life:
Basically, you get to choose what add-ons you would like to have in your ROM when you flash it.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Aprentice_:
currently testing the ROM, faster UI. Got this message many times: "Unfortunately, the process android.process.acore has stopped."

Battery icon more visible, timescape not working...

more coming soon...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] TheGreatSega:
thank god!!

ok.. open timescape app go to settings and click update mode or something.. it will say manual or automatic.. click automatic and it will work.

sony set it as manual default!!

android.process.acore is from the launcher.. since its from XS you'll get this problem.. but it doesn make a difference..

the ui is much faster due to the various tweaks ivve added.. also iv bulletproofed some apps

if you use my kernel it should be smoother.... plz tell the others how you installed it to make it work!!!!

THANK YOU!!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Aprentice_:
installation is simple: backup, factory reset, wipe cash, wipe dalvik, installa zip file

my options were: stock wifi, Xperia Arc S, superusers, ThSEGA boot animation, didnt install: google talk, sound enhancement, SIM toold kit, Sony update service.

no timescape app, just the widgets...anyways i don;t use it.

is there a fix launcher? i mainly noticed the error while uninstalling an app. It's annoying!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] TheGreatSega:
Unfortunately there is no launcher fix... As the launcher was meant for Xperia S...

Sent from ThSEGA
[Xperia Arc Android Development] wth_is_life:
I'm not sure if it could be because of the STK

But that doesn't make sense
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Aprentice_:
Sound enhancement FC.

also couldn't find the lockscreen notifications like in V4!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] TheGreatSega:
fix

for sound enhance fix.. reflash walkman port by thillinac

for lockscreen notification flash a framework-res.apk

ive spoke to aeonworld about the lockscreen but he hasnt been able to make it work for a full wipe

QUESTION!!

do you want me to release a ROM for this fw..?? or wait for the new fw that sony are releasing soon??
[Xperia Arc Android Development] wth_is_life:
Maybe just finish V5 for now ?

And can you check the bootloop issue, if possible ?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] TheGreatSega:
Open the .Zip package of V5test and go here /customize and delete the folder fw... Then put it on sd card and reflash

Sent from ThSEGA
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Aprentice_:
am having some lags and redraws.I guess the NXT UI is too much for the Arc though it's very nice, since you switched to it lag and redraws happened. I am sure it's faster than V4 but still there is some lag and redraws.

BTw i am using latest stock kernel CWM. will Sega Kernel makes a difference?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] TheGreatSega:
Definitely... Give it a go... It is really smooth and very fast

how to discable center clock ?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Aprentice_:
Testing the ROM:

the first thing you notice is the clock at the center of the bar!

The keyboard worked fine without flashing keyboard.zip

when using the GPS (maps) a small empty battery icon appears on the top left.

redraws after some usage time.

the alarm icon is "transparent"

stock news & weather app missing

still getting the error :"Unfortunately, the process android.process.acore has stopped."

battery icon too big :)

...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] TheGreatSega:
.587

unfortunatly this is the only statusbar mod available for .587 fw...

and i quite like the clock in the center.. i did it myself...

new version coming in a day or two!!

[Xperia Arc Android Development] TheGreatSega:

as i said... this is the ONLY stat bar mod right now.. feel free to flash another..

you will get android.core.policy error because of NXT UI... it doesnt affect the phone but if you dont like it... dont use the NXT UI

Hi,

Installed your Rom 30min ago. So far, so good. But I have only 66Mb free space for system ROM! How can it be? Any solutions?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] wth_is_life:
That's strange, here's mine (with added ringtones to system/media)

http://i546.photobucket.com/albums/hh437/FalconZx2009/Screenshot_2012-08-26-08-18-18.png

try format system and reflash ROM
[Xperia Arc Android Development] vito8916:
this ROM changed my baseband and I didnt want that.

otherwise it's good but it throws a error (process.ecore) when you uninstall an app
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Aprentice_:
it's because of the NXT UI but it won't affect anything. you will mainly get it when you uninstall an app...

what's the baseband?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] shunkawakan:
@Wth is live: Of cause I did a full wipe/format!:) Anyway, flashed ROM twice, deleted some useless stuff and now I've got 155mb free space. But with the jjhybrid I had roundabout 210mb.

And iam missing "Application killed" when pressing the backbutton!

I remember, there was a link in arc forum to install/enable this function, but can't find it. Can someone help me, please?

Sent from outer space!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] TheGreatSega:
hmm

i know this.. im facing the same problem.. the lack of space is the reason that some apps don't install like semcvideo...

i have a feeling that the new .587 FW is extremely large.. its about 220 mb in compressed format... and the NXT UI is also very large....

do you guys think i should make 2 seperate ROMS?? one with NXT and one complete stock?? untill i find a solution??
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Aprentice_:
yes it would be better.

also I did try the ROM without the NXT UI and the notification on the status bar is still fuzzy.

LED notifications not working too.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] rod555:

[Xperia Arc Android Development] pulz:
Rebased ?

Has this ROM been Rebased to .587 Firmware ?

Thanks!

It still preserves the stock camera, right ?!

SEGA kernel completely compatible with it, right ? And it is also based on .587 right ?

Thank you. !

what ftf version you use? Your system partition is bigger than me.

I use .587 ftf I only have 325MB, 562 give me 400MB. I can see that you have 420MB system partition.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] TheGreatSega:
v7

ok.. so ive built V7.. it has about 100 mb free on system... i moved alot of apps to the data partition.. its a complete ROM (it can be used as a daily driver, business friendly etc..)

the build.prop is un-tweaked and init.d is not fully tweaked.. this means i shall update it further and it can get quicker...

OTA functionality added so keep checking for updates...

@NEO/Vusers... if the rotation problem persists... ill compile a seperate ROM for you Guys...

EVERYTHING IS FUNCTIONAL.. it all works.. ive checked myself...

im doing some more tests so expect an release date soon.... also my net is soooooooooooo slow right now...

@ARC/Susers.... once my net speeds up ill start .587 kernel compilation...

p.s help me out... and buy me a coffee/beer... i stay up all night working !!!! =)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] :
You could make the rom with no other 3rd party apps like facebook and stuff. If they want facebook inside xperia, you could make a separate flashable .zip containing the fb inside xperia or some other unimportant app. Thats what i think
[Xperia Arc Android Development] TheGreatSega:
aroma

@leparkour

thats why i use aroma.. if you want it you can install it.. otherwise do not check the option!! =)

Of Course I Give. Your ROM is Really Good! I Used as Base ROM since your ROM was the First Really. 587 ROM. You Know, i got a Problem with my arc S and can't Flash Firmware via Flashtool/SuS, only via Fastboot. So i Used your ROM as Base ROM. But, Trust me, i have CHANGEd 100% and you won't See anything from TgeSegaV5. It was Hard-Work, changing System Apps, BusyBox, changing ringtones, Font, Audio, bootanimation, build.prop and many more.. I will Give you 100% proper credit for great Base Rom.
