[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sodronez:
Just installed the incredible UHD 5

There are two things i want to ask

1. How can i use the copy-paste function on text. I tried to tap and hold the text but there's only magnifier to zoom the cursor

2. Why do the call log is in front of the dial pad so it kind of blocking the dial pad, even though i can still use the dial pad normally. It's just seems not normal :(

FYI, i use Lupus v 16 kernel

One more thing, when i tried to install eagleboy's mod i got stucked on boot screen
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TopperBG:
1.Double tap

2.Change theme (else than xperia UHD will work)

3.Not enough space. Did you ever flash stock LT18 firmware to extend your data partition ?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sodronez:
1&2 cleared

3. By space, do you mean SD card or Internal memory? I flashed the firmware which i download from UHD thread install instructions. I think it was stock LT18 firmware. I don't understand about extending data partition
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TopperBG:
Flashing stock firmware ( I mean STOCK) for LT18 on LT15 give you additional 30-40Mb TO INTERNAL RAM /DATA partition which sometimes are viral for flashing big custom roms/mods. I think that's the case.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sodronez:
Referring from this post :

Yup, i think i've installed the stock for LT18 because now my internal memory is 420mb

One more question, i always use SwiftKey as my main keyboard and i never find any issue using it on another ROM. But after i use UHD 5, i can't find the ".com" button when i try to type on the stock browser's address bar. Haven't tried different browser though. Not a big deal, just to let you know
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TopperBG:
Yeah my mistake it's too early here it's /system partition.

For UHD 5 and SwiftKey IDK, have pro SwiftKey but reverted 5.0 to good old 3.0.2
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sodronez:
Thanks for the answers, mate

I'll try to Google more about system partition
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TopperBG:
There is no need to do that, just follow CAREFULLY the guide here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=38538332

It's proven countless times believe me.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sodronez:
Yup, i followed the instructions carefully and i don't think that i missed any step

My device is working perfectly, the only problem i get is i can't install eagleboy's mod. It always stuck on boot screen (the xperia colorful wave) i thought it's just the boot that taking its time like when we first install a ROM, but after i let it load overnight (i just let it be and go to sleep), its still display the boot screen :(

You said it's the memory issue, so i'm still googling it. FYI, i tried mount2sd and it said that i don't have ext-sd partition. Still looking more info about it on Google
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TopperBG:
That is different problem for different thread.

Show me your /system partition size.

About M2SD - you must have second partition on your SD card to works.

I'm still on 4.0 with Lupus kernel on a Pro and while the ROM itself is stable, I got the problem that most apps are very crashy. Both built in and downloaded ones like the browser, maps, rocket player, imo etc. just crash very frequently. I installed the ROM doing a complete wipe, so I don't really see how I could perform worse for me than for anyone else :(

Ultimate HD 5 Vs 3.0.2 for Arc s

Hi J,

First of all thank you so much for providing such an awesome ROM!

My bro was using Arc S from 6 months but the look that he got on the face after I started using Arc S with your ROM was Awesome!! Thanks!! :good:

Main question I wanted to ask is should I upgrade to HD 5 on my Arc S which is now running on 3.0.2?

As you know the device is very much short on RAM so upgrading to use JB will be fine? What about the performance issues?

With your fastest ROM my device is lagging so just wanted to be sure if its worth a try?

Thanks :)
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dom182:
Hi, HD 5.0 is based in ICS too, like the 3.0.2, not on JB...

I have never tried the 3.0.2, but the 5.0 works very well ;)
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] popthosegaskets:
All ROMs will start lagging after long term usage so it's up to the user to have some basic knowledge about maintaining the ROM and keeping it at its peak performance. You also need to know what the ROM is optimised for as every ROM is different from each other.

For example, I wouldn't use an ICS ROM for gaming and I won't use a GB ROM if I wanted the latest features of Android on my device.

I am not a great gamer so ICS is fine for me :)

With HD 3.0.2 I am having a problem with connecting to my Win7 virtual router! (every software and default).

With virtual router it says Authentication problem and sometimes Not in range!!

which I recently observed, as I was using linksys router before without any issue, even now in the office with router WPA2 it has no issues!!

Any workarounds, any one face with same issue?

Also will HD5 supports Ad-hoc? or its device/kernel limitation?

Unlock bootloader is not necessary, but you need a stock kernel since UHD is stock based.

it seems can't enabled after installing Xperia Ultimate HD 5.0

right now i'm using kernel and wifi modules from this topic

Frozen Arc S

Hi,

first of all a HUGE thank you to jader13254 for a brilliant ROM! I recently installed UHD 5.0.0 on my GF's Arc S and she absolutely loves it (she used stock ROM before).

There is one issue though which I couldn't find in any other post (I also browsed all pages in dev thread since the 5.0 release).

After some random time after starting the phone (can be many hours but also happened after less than one hour) the phone "freezes". This (until now) always happenend while phone was sleeping. Then when trying to wake up the phone by pressing the power button, the HW buttons are lit up but the display remains dark:

I can still connect to the phone through "adb shell". But when I run "ps" or "logcat" the output stops after a few dozen lines and I have to kill the "adb" process on my computer.

Also the "reboot" command on the shell does not work (no output and I have to kill adb process on my computer).

I found no way to unlock or power down the phone. Only way to reboot is by removing and re-inserting the battery.

(Of course, "ps", "logcat" and "reboot" work properly when the display is not frozen.)

Phone specs:

Arc S LT18i

ROM: UHD 5.0.0

Kernel: Lupus v16 (I also tried stock kernel, but same issue)

Link2SD (2nd partition is ext2, UHS card)

CPU: 249 MHz - 1.4 GHz (I also tried downclocking to up to 1.0 GHz, but same issue)

Has anyone observed the same issue or has any idea about what I could try next?

TIA and BR,

Frank

UPDATE:

I changed the SD card and now the phone is s-l-o-w, but no longer freezing. So, it seems that it is not a ROM issue. That's why I started a new thread for this question.

Cheers,

Frank

Lockscreen Picture

Hello boys,

first of all - NICE WORK!

UHD is really smooth and works fine so far and I've been very surprised by the big progress you've made

because UHD 4 gave me some FC's but...

I have discovered that I'm not able to change Lockscreen Picture.

The first problem was that the ROM tries to change it thru "Album" which is not a part of UHD 5.0.1

OK, so I grabbed some SEMCAlbum.apk from somewhere on xda and then I was able to choose a picture but nothing has changed even after reboot.

I'm on stock kernel and .587 ICS

UHD 5.0.1 was installed right after fresh flash.

I'm not sure which one of the lockscreen I installed but it's the one with the upside-down swipe and walkman without album art.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Hi

I have used till now so many ROMs on my xperia pro like CM10, Gin2JB, Legacyxperia, sandwich, SEMC debrand engine etc.

When i flashed ultimate HD 5 latest version, my device has started behaving badly.

Problems -

1. Always 100% battery status & battery draining fast. as its always 100% directly switched off

2. Whenever other persons (different) tries to call me they get busy tone where as device is not busy, i changed SIM on other device & works ok.

3. Temple run doesn't work, automatically closes, i m using link2sd & swapper also.

4. During incoming & outgoing call, photo of caller goes behind number & size of photo is small

5. whenever camera app i open, i m seeing black screen with small white coloured rectagle in middle

6. No screen lock, even after selecting slide option in screen lock in security, after power on direct desktop is visible

I have flashed this ROM propoerly, i mean wiped cache parition, dalvik cache, system, data, formated SD-ext partition of card, wiped battery stats, fixed all permission & using stocked kernel.

Anybody is having solution, let me know, right now i shifted back to other custom ROM
