[Xperia Arc Android Development] soybi:
You didnt follow my instructions, did you flash official stock 4.0.4 first?

Via Xperia Arc S
[Xperia Arc Android Development] OceanXRun:
Not , other ROM dont need that :D .
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soybi:
well, it is your fault then.. but you can still try.. in this rom, you have to flash stock 4.0.4 first... always... :)

Hi :)

My hdmi isnt working. And I honestly hadn't used it since I started using this Rom so u didn't realise till now. Is it known to work on the arc with this Rom?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soybi:
I think i removed the hdmi controller.. Im sorry im not yet at home but you can get the hdmi app from the stock rom.

Cant upload it now..

[Xperia Arc Android Development] ajgftw:


Not a problem, when you get home can you post the file I need? It's not urgent so I'd rather wait for you to post a file you know works than for me have a go and mess it up :P

Also I'm sure it might come up again in the future so it could be good thing to have on your thread :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soybi:
here it is.. hdmi app.. see attachments..

just move it to /system/app folder and chang permissions

locked bootloader

hope you port a version for locked boot loader...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soybi:
i'll ask emmanxperia about that.. But i cant promise to make one, because i am depending on his work... There is no original version of this rom for locked bootloader..

Via Xperia Arc S
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ninehuss:
I see..I hope emmanxperia make a version for locked version so you could port it for us.

thanks for the prompt reply soybi
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soybi:
I hope so too. So every arc/s users can use this rom...

But i doubt it, i remember emman saying that he will not make locked bootloader version in the original thread..

Waiting for his reply though...

Via Xperia Arc S
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ajgftw:
Ok, followed instructions. There was a hdmi apk already in the system/app folder, so I overwrite it with yours and set permissions as indicated and rebooted my phone.

Unfortunately when I connect my phone and tv via hdmi I still get black screen on tv.

To eliminate other factors, all the cables and adapters used are known working and my phone and tv have worked together in the past.

Any tips?

I think if we can fix this you could definitely claim a 100% working Rom.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soybi:
Did the hdmi icon appears on notification bar when you insert the hdmi?

I can't try hdmi coz i dont have tv with hdmi

Via Xperia Arc S
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ajgftw:
There was no notification bar icon I could see. It's very strange that everything is perfect except this one thing :P

Hopefully one of the other users of this Rom can either confirm or deny hdmi is working for them.

Is it possible that it could be kernel related? I'm still learning what the kernel controls and what the Rom controls.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soybi:
i asked emman about it and waiting for his reply..
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soybi:
.587 based i-scream...

once emman update the original i-scream, i will update this ported rom as well...

i think it would be faster...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ajgftw:
Do you know if he intends to use the new firmware in his next update?

I'm on the new stock Sony .587 firmware atm and its a noticeable improvement on the old one and on par with some of the custom roms for speed of the ui. Im excited to see what the custom roms based on it will be like.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soybi:
yes, i asked him about it and he said he will base the next update of i-scream from .587 firmware once it is available for neo v..

about hdmi, he didnt answer.. i too dont know how to make it work, coz i dont use hdmi..
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ajgftw:
Thanks for asking him :)

I think a. 587 based I-scream would absolutely fly!

If you don't mind I might have a browse round the forums and see if anyone can tell me how to add hdmi to the Rom. If I do work it out I'll pm you with what I learnt :cool:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soybi:
update: emannxperia is working on .587 based i-scream now...

about hdmi try this first..

if you have a stock system dump or files.. copy libhdmidisplay.so from /system/lib

push it to your phone with right permission... report if this will work...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ajgftw:
I will wait until new I-scream is released. Im on .587 stock now so when new arc I-scream is released I can just use files from my own .587 stock Rom installation to help get it working :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soybi:
Yes, you can extract the system.sin too if you have a .ftf file of. 587

Just extract system.sin using 7zip then extract it using yaffey... You can find the thread on how to do it here in arc forums

work it with locked bootloader?

found it, just unlocked
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soybi:
i didnt look at the free ram. But i tested it, i stressed the phone and still running good..

I open all of my apps and keep it running in the background. So it means you can multi-taskvwith this rom.

Im still trying to find the best suited kernel for this release in terms of peformance and battery life.

Tested:

Arcknight 4.0 and 4.1= good performance, battery drain

Lupus v8= test on going

You can try to flash though. And please report.

Thanks guys!

i-Scream on Locked Bootloader

I can confirm that i-Scream v13 is working on locked arc s.

Thanks soybi and emmanxperia for finally making it compatible to locked BL.

Anyway is the ROM really that bare? I've attached some screenshots..but I love this, I only have to add my apps and not remove any bloatware.

I noticed 3G connection is good and stable. Wifi is also stable.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ajgftw:
Have just installed 13. Can't seem to get my contacts to sync with Google. When I go to accounts in contacts I can only add my facebook account. Suggestions?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soybi:
I have removed googlecontactsync.apk

Im at work now. Later tonight i'll make flashable zip of the apps i've removed.

Thanks guys!

If you want to thank us please just press THANKS BUTTON..

-soybi
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soybi:
Thank you for confirming its working on locked bootloader.

But, i think you have to reinstall recovery coz i dont know if emann included it in the rom.

About the rom eyecandy, you can just put the themes you like on this rom.

-soybi
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ninehuss:
Themes

Yup, I need to re-install the recovery as it is not integrated in the ROM.

I've managed to install Aeon's Lockscreen and Small T Apps..but I sort of messed up my phone when I flashed the ST Octane Transformation pack- semc.android settings force closes, the contacts and phone dialler went missing :confused:...is there another way to install themes? Thanks!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soybi:
Open the octane transformation zip.

The replace every file inside it with the equivalent file from main rom zip. Then flash it..

If it went ok. Flash small apps again.

Im not using any theme. I love my arcS minimal

-soybi
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ninehuss:
Themes

I bricked my phone when I flashed the octane transformation with replaced files from i-scream, I think I got it corrupted somewhere;);)

Anyway, I opted to extract the DefaultThemes.apk from the octane zip, set the necessary permission and push it to the system/apps folder to get the themes.

Thanks
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soybi:
Ow! What did u use to replace files? 7zip or winrar? Did you make nandroid backup first before doing it? Did you wipe caches?

Btw, how's it doing with locked bootloader and stock kernel?

-soybi
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ajgftw:
Even just post the apk im missing and I am happy to install it manually myself.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soybi:
ADDED FLASHABLE ZIP OF REMOVED APPS IN THE OP...

PLEASE TELL ME WHATS WORKING AND NOT WORKING..

THANK YOU!!!

emann will release the final verion of the original rom..

i will think about porting the final version to arc/s because this one is stable for me, it is so close to the final version..
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ninehuss:
On Locked Bootloader

I replaced the files using winzip :D..and I did not wipe anything. Having a nandroid back up did not save it from reflashing since I was stucked in Sony Logo. Anyhow I've re-flashed and reinstalled i-scream so all is good.

By the way, I just countered check the archive and found out I have 2 folders of meta-inf :eek::eek:no wonder my phone got bricked (should have checked it before flashing). Anyway, I think its better that I've only replaced the default themes since the ST Octane Transformations may have some conflicts in the ROM.

The i-scream ROM in locked boot loader is working great. So far i have not encountered any errors. I love the modded Market. It have great connectivity via WIFI and network. Deep Sleep is efficient. All my apps and games are working (although I'm not really a game fanatic:D)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ajgftw:
Flashed the "appdate", working, solved the problem I had. Will continue to report any further problems. Otherwise loving the RoM!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soybi:
What kernel do you use?

How's it?

i-scream

-soybi
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ajgftw:
I'm using kernel SEGA V9 atm. Performance is good but I think battery life well be better on a more stock kernel.

Rom is perfectly smooth without OC and multitasks really well. Haven't come across ANY FC's yet. Will probably continue to use this as my daily driver for some time so I will continue to report any problems I find. :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soybi:
Im using lupus v8 now. I think this one is better than arcknight..

I will try other kernel next time.

just PM me or post here..

-soybi
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soybi:
Hi guys! Just to inform you, the previous version of i-scream is RC2..

Here is i-scream-13-rc3

http://www.mediafire.com/?5vbag5tnfba2j1u

https://www.dropbox.com/s/s7s1zu5whd336fx/signed_i-Scream_13_update_08nov.zip - upgrade pack (some important files + ics blue theme)

Installations:

- make a full backup of your current rom (always)

- do a full wipe (highly recomended), wipe caches, format data partition

- flash the main rom, let it finish

- boot into phone, do not set account yet

- reboot again into recovery

- flash the upgrade pack (this is important)

- your phone may heat (but not much) maybe for 5-10 minutes, no need to worry

- download script manager (or any app to run script)

- run '99memory' script in init.d folder as root & at boot

- do not OC yet, let the rom settle with default for at least a day

Notes:

- been running this version for few days, no issue so far

- performance/speed/smoothness is good (i'm sure u will agree ￼)

- please test it for few days & report back on battery life, if okay, will update OP with this one

- why need to run it with script manager: the value will revert to default if it only run during boot (init.d script)

- recommended to disable haptic-feedback(in sound setting), window/transition animation (in developer options) & lower/disable the vibration intensity (in Language & input > Xperia keyboard)

Please tell me what works and not works.

I-scream v13 rc3

Just flash the rc3 version. So far no error found, although Titanium Backup said that I have a different Android user ID but by clicking "continue using new ID" this prompt never showed again.

Good thing that notification in lock screen is already integrated in the rom (one less flashing step for me;)). And I can customize my home to my liking.

I also noticed that I don't have the same icons nor toggles as your screenshots in #3..how could I have that or is it from a different version?

I've wiped everything and formatted cache/data/system by the way since I still have a locked bootloader before installing the ROM.

scrolling also lags:(

Very high sound than any other ROMs i have tried :good:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soybi:
Thank you for the report, but, mine is smooth, no lags even underclocked to 1.2ghz,

If you are from other custom rom, try flashing stock .587 ftf first, then use KTG kernel, flash rom and upgrade pack, let it settle for at least 1hr, then reinstall all ur apps..

Biggups on the update, used it for a full day now. Performance seem to be a bit faster (haven't cleaned any caches etc)

The notification bar is sexy as hell.

But I've noticed a flaw that weren't there before. When listening to music (PowerAMP), and browsing with chrome. Poweramp stops playing music at random repeatadly. Also sometimes while playing games.

So when performance is high, it kills PowerAMP. It's quite annoying. - Or maybe should I ask in poweramp boards about this.

Oh and why are there 2 Calanders open all the time, they just seem to popup randomly aswell.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] OsiBasi:
