People with GooglePlay issue

For those who are having GooglePlay issue try to go into setting\App\Google Play Store and clear data and cache.

Try to access and download any apps see whether any error.

If error still persist remove google account and re-add it again and go into setting\App\Google Play Store and clear data and cache and test again.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] sunekosuri:
didn't help me :(
[Xperia Arc Android Development] inferno17x:
What is the exact error you are having with GooglePlay?

What method have you tried to resolve?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] efray17:
ok... right now this step i already doing ...

1. use stock ROM LT15i_4.1.B.0.587_Generic Global World.ftf

2. flash with Lt18i_4.1.A.0.562_Kernel.ftf - rooting - flash again with LT15i_4.1.B.0.587_Kernel.ftf

3. then fastboot flash boot boot_587.img from recommend kernel using Flashtool (my command prompt cant working.. just stuck on waiting device):eek::eek:

at point 2 you mean

i should flash again with this stock ROM LT18i_4.1.B.0.587_(1254-2716).ftf and exlude the kernel ?

then continue to point 3 - 5
[Xperia Arc Android Development] sebek_d:
It's working using inferno17 method. Thanks mate!

After installing it I've cleaned Google Play data and no issues with Google Play at all.

Nice one!

EDIT: hmmmm, after 40min with that ROM I'm getting Google Play Store errors like anyone else :( clearing data no longer helps:(

EDIT2: just for curiosity I've restarted the phone and now GPS is back working wtf?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] sunekosuri:
I cleared cache from application only, the error is "Couldn't download app ExDialer because of error (During download information from server an error ocured [RPC:AEC:0])" That's all :)

and about unread email lock screen notification error, check attachment :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] sebek_d:
Jan would you be able to tell me how can I use the same lock screen as in 4.2n?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] inferno17x:
Try to follow through exactly what I have written for the instructions.

You seems to have problems with flashing your kernel.

What flashtool are you using? Maybe you have to download the latest flashtool

Edit; Just ask maybe you have miss putting your phone in fastboot mode when you tried to flash the kernel
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jader13254:
Check out change log @1 page... all reported errors will be fixed!

What is wrong with that?

PS: this rom will have 2 new unique features:

SystemUI with New Onescreenbuttons (thx till-kruspe :good::good: your amazing!!)

OneScreenbuttons @build4

jelly bean animations!!!!!!!

I will fix a lot of bugs, but PLEASE GIVE ME SOME TIME I DONT LIKE LAGGY RELEASE 1-2 days, probably I'll release a JB Animations Fix for build 3....

Jan

Any New Features you want me to include?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] OceanXRun:

[Xperia Arc Android Development] nunoacruz:
Hi!! since I upgraded to ICS, I don't have any notification on LockScreen, does any one know why?? Or how to put them if possible?

When I receive a sms it just displays a small icon on status bar nothing else, I want it like this

Jader can you put this on your rom?

and maybe add notifications to button leds
[Xperia Arc Android Development] trax7:
it's not a bug - it's normal for Arc(S) :)

[Xperia Arc Android Development] jader13254:
It have never sd-ext it's external ad and arc don't have for /data!! It's no bug, Rom will work, trust me!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jader13254:
Included in ROM :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] sunekosuri:
It would be very nice to have possibility to add on lock screen direct call to person shortcut as you can on phone desktop, I often call to my girlfriend and this would give me possibility to do this without unlocking my phone! :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jader13254:
Go @settings--->lockscreen & add phone than swipe left and startup phone than favourites and than call...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] nudelaug:
google play

Google Play is working

but when reboot phone google play is down
[Xperia Arc Android Development] efray17:
yeaaaa...... finally success......... :victory::victory::victory:

after reflash withLT18i_4.1.B.0.587_(1254-2716).ftf and exlude the kernel

for make sure again.. using flashtool .. reboot into fastboot mode (via ABD) and select kernel to HotBoot using boot_587.img

1st step forget to go in recovery mode and make my device bootloop at X xperia animation :p:p

then try restart to recovery - backup - restore bulid 3

install patch - restart system...

and finally show homescreen....

NEW BANNER for JAN !

What do you think about that?! ;)

If you like it, click on THANKS BUTTON :angel:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] sunekosuri:
yeah, but this is not a solution, faster for me is just to unlock and click one icon on desktop with direct call, so right after clicking it starts to dial number and call. I would like to have a way to add this one to locak screen instead Messages or anything else ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jader13254:
Great! Will add

Is it possible to use the rom without flashing the kernel?

For staff that has locked the bootloader, it is not possible to change the kernel ...:crying:

[Xperia Arc Android Development] regener8:
just flashed my LT15i with the Xperia Ice Bean 4.2n on ARC-DooMKernel-ICS-BETA-v05_boot kernel

had 2 main issues so far:-

1. applied the wifi patch but still cannot detect any wifi ap

2. playing around with the widget, sms text, albums.. it will freeze then auto reboot

please advise if this is known issue ?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] firedeimos:
I tried this:

- 4.2n with sirkay kernel and .431 fw (all worked ok)

- 4.2n with stock adv .587 kernel and .587 fw (again all worked)

try using a different kernel, i recommend sirkay's

Agreed!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jarein95:
Jade when is going to be your rom for test it??
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jader13254:
24h +/-
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jarein95:
Ok!!!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jader13254:
Guys do you know what my main problem is? I must build the rom out of .587 and for that I must relock my BootLoader. So I must relock, install .587 and than unlock and install arcknight, than mod the ROM. Just give me some time, the build on 4.0.4 is already finished :)

But old version so never release.

The Xperia Ice Bean X will have very much Mods for perfect Experience, for example my rom is the only ROM with "xMoD" Hosts, so that you don't see ads anywhere. Isn't that great? That's a real Feature, which is perfect for daily use, since it makes browsing and Apps with ads faster + saves data volume mb's. Whenever I use another ROM and go to xda free I see ads - with ice bean not.

Jan
[Xperia Arc Android Development] firedeimos:
Why would you do that? I updated from .431 to .587 just by flashing .ftf, there's no need to relock you bootloader mate...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jader13254:
Yes, but my arc s cant use flashtool since today :(
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jarein95:
So your rom isnt be released tomorrow or on monday no??
[Xperia Arc Android Development] firedeimos:
If you tell us the exact problem we might help you...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jader13254:
Hey Guys Xperia Ice Bean X based on. 587 is finished. It's awesome Smooth! All Pages full of Widgets and many apps installed and still super smooth! Will release today!

Jader , U Rebased The Rom to The Fw.587.

Then Why Your Rom Has Bugs ??
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jader13254:
I Think I'll make a Add-On since there are many Bugs with Onescreenbuttons, and also OSB hater..

I Will make add-on like mentioned above...

PS: New Signature added
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jader13254:
Since There are Some Problems when Creating a ROM - It's Not Like "Lala remove that and that.. ok done bugfreee.." its a bit complicated and there can be complete new problems... hope you understand, i try to fix all bugs @build4 but i can gurantee... but play store will be 100% fixed, before i wouldn't release..

only arc s kernel 587 overcloked at 2.16ghz

kernel 587 overcloked at 2.16ghz download the zip extract the boot.img file flash it and flash the zip for the modules

oc 2.16ghz with no boot loops or reboot

24 diferrent governors and more try it and if you like please hit thanks buton there are many adds for this kernel and i post it after people you try and report me the kernel and modules are only for arc s if you want for arc report me

Zram is not enabled by default- to enable it flash the zip below

If for whatever reason you want to disable it after you have flashed the .zip, just go to ect/init.d and delete 00zram

CIFS

The attached zip for CIFS is not a flashable zip read below

Make sure you download Cifs-v2 if your using v2 of kernel

What is CIFS???

Server Message Block (SMB) or Common Internet File System (CIFS) are normally used to provide shared access to files on a network, mostly involving computers running MS Windows.

It allows you to conveniently mount/unmount your network accessible file resources and access the files transparently via your favourite Android app (playing music / videos, accessing documents etc.) Settings are stored on your SD card with permissions to write also to your SD card.

Instructions

- extract cifsfile.zip from below

- save cifs,ko file to your sdcard

- in terminal emulator

- cd sdcard

- su

- insmod cifs.ko

I claim OnScreenButtons to be good idea, Jan. Personally, I don't like it - we have phisical buttons in our arc S's, don't we? Just suggesting.

Cheers,

Jan! :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jader13254:
Dear Max, many People like it since it's good for the life of hardware buttons - just simulate your menu button & back button is dead and your phone not booting - no chance, so we save our buttons.

Hi Jan,

I've noticed that my emails from gmail are not being sync automatically. I have to go each time to my gmail app and manually sync although the auto sync is on on for gmail in Settings/Accounts

EDIT: I fI open Accouns & syncs and then my gmail account next to "Sync Gmail" sync icon is always on (grey circle with arrows)

I've moved my gmail.apk to system/apps, I've deleted data and recreated the account still the same.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jader13254:
You can use the stock email app to sync with gmail. Just start the Sony email app and setup xxxx@gmail.com and password, it works, thats why I have removed gmail...

PS: I Will Upload Build 3.1 BACKUP. You Tell Me If Its Good and than ill make flashable :)

Another Thing, Xperia Gallery has new Icon
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jeffleev1:
Yes I try this and this way just maybe temporary solution.....

I found out still have problem for Play store now.

Hope someone will fix this...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] sebek_d:
Hi Jan,

The only email app I can see it's "Email"

This app is not giving me the same features as gmail:( I need push and don't want to sync emails every 5 min.

I will wait for next version meanwhile back to 4.2n
[Xperia Arc Android Development] inferno17x:
Hi Jan,

I have tested build 3 and customize stock .587 rom by Milanche which I believe that you have used it as your base ROM.

What I have noticed that when opening of the dialer there is some lag compare to the customize stock .587 ROM and the backspace button in the dialer is not sensitive and doesn't vibrates when touch.

Your ROM has many possibilities that can make things even better.

Another suggestion if possible please also includes the quick panel for the power widgets.

Thank you!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jader13254:
Included. 3.1 has better dialer and 3.2 will have holo launcher hd, since its a s smooth as jellybean @build 3.1, really!

Just test 3.1, when its uploaded, than say: good Rom or tell me what to improve. If its good, ill make flashable build 4.0 with holo launcher hd like jellybean and flashable
[Xperia Arc Android Development] inferno17x:
Hi Jan, Thanks once you have uploaded 3.1 I will test it out and let you know what more to improve to make it better!

6. Boot To Clockworkmod

7. Backup & Restore ----> Restore ---> 2012-09-04.20.26.45

8. Install smoothness fix

9. Reboot and enjoy.

I want to confirm that the above steps work for ARC (Lt15i) - YES , you MUST Install ***lt18i*** stock rom as per step 5 (download link first post).

[Xperia Arc Android Development] jader13254:
If u are facing any problems with play store just re-signin into ur Google acc.

If u have gmail just setup with the included Email App.

Jan
[Xperia Arc Android Development] sebek_d:
I've tried both Jan,

re-signing to Google account is only temporary solution. The problem always comes back after a while.

I really need gmail for it's push email feature.
