Thanks for the suggestion. Yes I will try to integrate the phone apk into the ROM and this is my aim for the next release. I think i am going to drop support for the GX apps and GX home launcher so that I can concentrate on this ROM becoming a proper AOSP rom.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] RAGman7:
YES YES!!! :highfive:

Take your time, yea we don't need GX launcher, one can always use his/her own preferred launcher (I use Apex anyways as it's more like AOSP feel and have so many options I can set to my liking). I guess launcher shouldn't be an issue for anybody as there are so many options out there.

Just pls leave as much Sony dedicated options working with the ROM as possible (HDMI, DLNA, MSC/MTP etc) as this is the reason I got ARC in the first place to have them available.

:good:

Just installed on arc s with locked BL. Wipe all (dalvik, cache, system, mount and storage - system, data, cache).

It seems very fast and battery frendly :)

Will use it few day and post impressions.

Edit

The omen lockscreen looks strange so I needed To install android lockscreen :)

Great job!

Thanks
[Xperia Arc Android Development] dolkic:
after one day of using I must say this is the most battery frendly rom I have ever installed on my arc s (locked BL - stock kernel).

Don't have any lag (only sometimes when something is installing from market and you are doing other stuff).

Dealer and massaging are working perfect compare to the sony apps of that type, i love the statusbar animations very much.

I have about 150 MB of free RAM all the time, so it's almost feel like GB :)

I installed apex launcher and it seems to work smoother than sony one.

Great job man, this rom is keeper.

Cheers!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Barleyman:
Would you please add the national data roaming option? It's really a dealbreaker for me as I'm using a virtual operator and enabling roaming data can have expensive consequences.

MVNO Patch from CM9.1 looks like this so it's not really a huge change. Basically you need option to set the MVNO flag and if it's true, ignore operator identity as long as country code matches.

You mean this?

Is Cam better than 431??
[Xperia Arc Android Development] YouZi:
Does this ROM support "ClearBass" and "Headphone surround"?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MaxFTW:
Maybe ROM is fast, but the thread look isn't tempting. Look at my Jelly Sandwich thread - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1836993. I spent a lot of time creating that thread and it tempts people by its look. You would have more "thanks" if you make your thread beautiful. It's only my advice, but... Whatever. ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ajgftw:
Naaah keep it simple, it will load faster on my phone ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] theumad:
It uses Dr. Dre's Beats Sound engine which is better than ClearBass. So ye, it has decent quality.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] theumad:
I personally like it simple and I don't like a lot of pictures and glitters. To be honest I prefer mine than yours' since yours looks more confusing than mine, due to the fact that mine is much more simple and clean.

But ye, I could add some small graphics somewhere however I like a very minimalistic look :)

Thanks for the suggestion though, I really appreciate it!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ajgftw:
You and me are on the same page mate, simple is best. :)

Also, your Rom looks heaps interesting! If I have time I'm totally going to install it this weeKend an d give it a go for a few days :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] theumad:
Thanks :)

I added some simple graphics to try and please everyone however I tried keeping it simple nevertheless.

And for a random image:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] theumad:
Camera is the same. However the UI is much smoother and there are much less bugs in the software.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] OceanXRun:
Ur rom not have to download , 1-2 week i cant test it , boring .
[Xperia Arc Android Development] n70shan:
is this rom more fast than gingerbread? i downgraded from ics to gb because i could'nt play even angrybirds on ics. i want to play games and smooth flash player experience. plz suggest!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] theumad:
yes it is as fast as gingerbread and yes you can play angrybirds without any problems on this firmware :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ratapoil:
Ahum, bricked my Arc S tempting to flash this rom !! Stucked at boot on Sony logo : nothing to do to booting my phone correctly !

Need help (but think it's over !).

Many thanks for help !
[Xperia Arc Android Development] theumad:
Cannot be.. this rom does not touch your kernel.. you need to do a factory reset through CWM. Did you do that?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Overdose1986:
Can you please upload it to http://brontofile.com/ (allows 500kb/s, 250mb max size file, multiple downloads...) or mediafire.com

Please I dont want to download @5Kb/s!!!!!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] theumad:

[Xperia Arc Android Development] OceanXRun:
Not have super charger , hope next version have it .

Love ur ROM , have more RAM than other .
[Xperia Arc Android Development] theumad:
Thankyou :) Yeah good idea. Ill add it to the next update as well ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Patambiz:
Good work but it still has lots of bloatwares like Mcafe and UEFA etc. Overall the Rom is extremely no lag :D

I recommend Thunderbolt + Supercharge = Awesome (just add this and you're rom is the best)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Barleyman:
No.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] choovanski:
I love this lockscreen, it's stunng.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] birdcut:
Hi theumad,

Can we edit the current call screen layout ? I have extract SemcPhone.apk and found that there are some xml file related to the layout (such as semc_incallscreen_large.xml). But I cannot open the xml file, I think the apk file has something that protects files from extracting.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] yagami:
I am finding this ROM to be my favorite or one of my favorites.

Xperia T Rom is also nice : It has google now. Can you include it also ? I like it :)

Its nice that your rom's contacts app doesnt mess completly when changing DPI... if launcher would also support multi DPI would be great for Xperia style.

With AOSP look, works very well ... only miss Google Now.

Would be great to have this great room with : AOSP look and Xperia look. ( i mean , i did bough a xperia :) )
[Xperia Arc Android Development] cxj1995:
Can anyone port this to ray?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] theumad:
Yes you can edit. I think it should deco pile, maybe you have something wrong with multi tool.

I'll try to include Google Now. Right now I'm focusing mostly on AOSP look though.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] Barleyman:
That's a no, then?

It's a couple of extra lines of code in the source which gives a clean "on/off" choice in the settings vs ugly decompile/hexedit/recompile hack of framework.jar on the client side..
[Xperia Arc Android Development] 3andala:
Really Best stock Rom Ever :D

Thank u theumad..Waiting for more :D

Performance settings and battery friendly please ?

Thnx in advance
[Xperia Arc Android Development] dolkic:
This rom is the faster and battery friendlier than any other ICS rom here (sparta rom is also good, but I personally prefer this one).
[Xperia Arc Android Development] 3andala:
Yeah i know bro i just asking for best performance settings and to be battery friendly too ?

i hope u understand what i mean

Thnx in advance

Cheers :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] dolkic:
Ups :)

Then I dont know what to say, I'm on locked BL so i dont have any choice :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] theumad:
Use all the 3 performance tweaks. I also suggest underclocking to 800Mhz.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Destroyedbeauty:
I'm trying this ROM atm and I can say that you truly know how to make it fast, stable and good.

I will report after a few charge cycles how the battery life is :)

Just to report tiday I have my first unexpected shout down. I have a phone conversation, finish it, lock screen and then screen was black. I needed to remove the battery and then everything was good. Just to report...

I'm still using this great rom, no single problem other than this situation.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] prosttyle:
i must say that this ROM is GREAT!

i've tested 80% of ROMs for Arc/s and this is my favorite so far. i've used CM10, AOKP, MIUI, 95% of Stock ICS based ROMs, GB roms, and this is The best so far.

I just need to test battery Life :)

Til now the ROM has everything i like, smooth launcher, AMAZING Widget menu + widgets (beautiful), Games are sooo smooth (yes, best gaming of all mentioned).

Great Job keep it up :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] lexiamen:
which kernel must be flash for Xperia Pro ?

i dont find any kernel for xperia pro in this page http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1838916&highlight=stock+kernel

there are all for arc/arc s

please help me...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] theumad:
Please search for an Xperia Pro Kernel from the Pro forums. The links i provided for kernels are only for xperia arc and arc s. I hope this helped.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Barleyman:
There is no pro forum.. But there is another omega rom thread tagged [PRO]

It would be best if you can use that thread since I do not own an Xperia Pro and thus my help is very limited.

Sorry for the limited help and I hope you can understand.

I'm wondering about one thing..

If I skip to install the performance tweaks in Aroma installer, does that give me the battery friendly version of this ROM? :confused:

Running ok on my locked bootloader pro but still has some bloatware :/

Just remove them from the settings menu just like google play apps.

Battery may be better when installing the tweaks.

Every dev say that their ICS roms are fast as hell.. :D

No ICS Rom is lagfree.. BTW how much is the free ram on first boot?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] piCool13:
This ROM is perfect for my needs not fast lyk hell if u compared with ULHD 3.0.2 but definitely very balanced for daily use gud in performance and game play is also very smooth even after installed various service based apps lyk FB, FB Messenger, Whats App, GTalk, Gmail, Maps, etc..

So good no lag what so ever smooth.. :)

Never had such a balanced experience with any ROM out here..
[Xperia Arc Android Development] theumad:
Adding Supercharge as we speak :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Shetz:
Hello,

Your ROM is very nice and fast!!

I hope that you will design the ROM like XPERIA S style with the functions

(:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] theumad:
Thanks :)

Doing some Xperia S conversions gradually!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Shetz:
Im testing your ROM and I think you should fix some things:

1.When i get massage from whatsapp in status bar the background is blue (into the window) and I cant see the text, its happening with all external app. so make the background to black like normal massages (SMS) .

2.Im using with morelocale 2 to use with my language (hebrew) and when im opening the music player or i get massgae in whatsapp for example

the Alignment is left to right and its might be right to left ( Im not talking about the window its happening in the status bar where the time and battery icon)

3.when Im using with 24 hours format in status bar its showing me 01:00 PM and i want that its will be 13:00 if you understand me..

please check it.

thanks for your attention !
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Patambiz:
Oh man, Critical Note.

I saw Lags after i did the Auto Supercharger V6

I play Tap Sonic at Fresh Install = 0 lag 100% smooth.

After Adding Supercharger V6 without the services.jar

Tapsonic went lag like other roms.

I would like also if you can change the Status bar like (JB SystemUI)

[Xperia Arc Android Development] theumad:
1.) Can you attach a screenshot please?

2.) I think it has to do with how the application is rendering graphics.

3.) The modded statusbar has a lot of bugs. If you want 24hr clock I suggest you to not choose the modded statusbar..

Does anyone tested it on LB? Since I noticed that a few posts earlier someone reported that it runs with stock kernel I'm wondering... :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ninehuss:
Locked Bootloader

I have and LT18i with locked bootloader and successfully installed IC.Xperiance v2.0. I've tested the 2.0 version last night and it is indeed fast & smooth but have to change ROM since I can't turn on the wifi.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] theumad:
Mhmm I think it has to do with the wifi modulles. Thanks for pointing it out :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] theumad:
I'm just curious, how many people are actually using this rom?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] lucky92:
rom is very fast :good::good:

can you make on-screen-button for this rom please :D:D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] theumad:
Sure.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] kossie12:
im going to give this one a try for a few days, i'll report back later.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jarein95:
your rom is so fast, but i watch that have a bug and is that you create a swap file and when you reboot the phone, the phone go so laggy and get frezze before you put the pin code!!! how can i solve this??
[Xperia Arc Android Development] kossie12:
i cant get this rom to work?

Kernel i used was arcknight 3.6

First boot is now already taking longer than one hour.

Some instructions please?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] miqz:
kernel related..arcknight 3.6 doesn't boot

use 3.5.1 or another kernel
[Xperia Arc Android Development] theumad:
Yes, please use stable Kernels.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] kossie12:
thanks its working now!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] theumad:
Why are you creating a SWAP file?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jarein95:
I use swap in all of ICS rom because we need more free ram so with this script make virtual ram for most speed!!

What can i do to start your rom with swap?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] theumad:
I think your SWAPing is conflicting with Supercharger since superchargers takes care of RAM allocation differently than the stock ROM. Also note that using SWAPing means that your phone will run slower since the RAM of the phone is optimized to be read and written faster than the other storage especially the SD-Card.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] kossie12:
Superfast rom i think i will keep useing it.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] naoentrar:
on screen buttons please :)

Rom very fast, nice work!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] spromper:
Great rom, very fast, using it with stock kernel. Hope the battery is as great as the speed and smoothness. Only my installation didnt work as supposed to, i selected walkman, root explorer and cpu control but they werent installed.

Thx for your rom!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] lucky92:

[Xperia Arc Android Development] theumad:
On Screen buttons are going to be added for sure. ;)

[Xperia Arc Android Development] spypsy:
can u port the same ROM to Xperia Ray , ders no other stock alike ROMS ,
[Xperia Arc Android Development] theumad:
Yes yes, obviously there will be a choice through aroma ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] theumad:
Unfortunately I do not have the time to check out ROMs on other phones right now. I might consider it later on however right now I don't have an Xperia Ray to test on and neither time to do it.

Sorry :/
[Xperia Arc Android Development] argiris:
I try to install the ROM and i choose walkman, taskbar sortcuts and some other things but no one of them are installed. Also when the phone start and ask me for sim card pin after show me a message about a program that need to close..
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Tripov:
Last night I installed sucessfully this ROM on my Arc S with Locked Bootloader and stock kernel from Sony .587 release and been "playing" with it the entire day.

The ROM is really nice and fast.

Unfortunatelly the Wifi won't turn on (you said in previous posts it has something to do with wifi modules). I'll surely give your ROM another try once this is fixed.

Since you use the nice Aroma installer maybe you could give options to install some componentes like Timescape and Uefa/McAfee as optional ones.

Congratulations on your work! :good:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] theumad:
Thankyou. I think I fixed the WiFi modules in the release I'm uploading now - Version 2.2.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Tripov:
Ok! I'll try when it becomes available and the post the results here. Meanwhile I've tested flashing the stock wifi modules I've found in this thread and got Wifi to work.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] theumad:
Yeah that was the problem. Somehow there were no WiFi modules when I extracted the ROM form the official FTF. Now I got the stock WiFi modules from my previous build and put it into the ROM. WiFi now works on stock Kernel.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] naoentrar:
verson 2.2 will include on screen buttons?

Thanks
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jarein95:
and what about the swap?? We cann do swap in the new version or no??
[Xperia Arc Android Development] theumad:
Sadly I couldn't inlcude the on-screen buttons straight into the ROM since it resulted in an infinite boot. This was caused after a factory wipe and so I couldn't include it just yet because of new users who may panic if they see something like an infinite boot loop.

Fear not though, since I'll include a tutorial on how to install it after you install the ROM ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] gersp:
So you are now uploading v2.2? Please, please dont upload to dev-host it is sooooo daamn slow. I hate it !
[Xperia Arc Android Development] theumad:

Hello !

Just installed (2.1)... and it`s great. It is very fast and most of all : Have enough free ram. Great work. Prior to this i have had JJ`s Rom, witch is really great, best looking but not as fast and smooth like this one.Great job !!!!

If you could do something about this stock look it would be great, it will be the ultimate Rom for ARC !

P.S. : Does it work to install v2.2 over 2.1 ???? (update, not clean install) ???
[Xperia Arc Android Development] theumad:
I was still uploading it :P

I'll download it myself again just to be sure, however I think you downloaded it while I was still uploading it :P

I read on Aroma Installer that you added onscreen keys .... I am still waiting for first boot but how to remove the onscreen keys? I hate them :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] naoentrar:
I see that you provided some links to download flashable zips for on screen buttons, however I tried it and got into bootloop :s
[Xperia Arc Android Development] theumad:
yeah, that was the reason why I didn't actually include them in the ROM.
