I checked the optimizer.zip

As the rom is made for ray, I'm guessing The stuff is limited to its resolution. Such as the framework (most) and systemui etc.

This could be the problem as the framework and some specific apks arent cross compatible.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MrTapa:
pro is hdpi so its the same
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MrTapa:
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B9x4wia8-FEvMzE2UkJobzhtLUk/edit arc s or arc users please try this if you have problems with device optimizer. Sorry taht its for revolution hd. I made that guy a porter also
[Xperia Arc Android Development] madsponge26:
strange.. uhm.. touch screen..
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jader13254:
You too? Yeah its lol like a small button you must move to touch
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MaxFTW:
Well, "Device Optimizer" is something like my "Device choice" in AROMA. It's the AROMA script which extracts chosen device's files to /system/. Before looking into script I thought it will be a bit more innovative - script which automatically recognizes device (yes, it's simply possible). Isn't better to include "Optimizer" (we know it's device selection, of course :D) into ROM package? It isn't big sized, so...

BTW, I will try your ROM later, mate! :):):)

Cool that you have developed ROM, Mr Tapa!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MrTapa:
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B9x4wia8-FEvMzE2UkJobzhtLUk/edit flash this and give tell me what will hapend
[Xperia Arc Android Development] emwno:
Hdpi doesn't make a difference. Arc and pro both are 'Hdpi devices' but their framework etc aint cross compatible.

Correct mein I'm wrong.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MrTapa:
I dont beleve this. All frameworks are equal the difference between pro and arc is only in /bin /lib and /usc
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jackkeylow:
This is like one of the best ics rom I've tried. Good for gaming.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] StateOfMind1976:
The screenshots are not working in post 1.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] XtremeSilencer:
hey mr tapa can you help me with my slim bean rom??
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MrTapa:
pm teh problem
[Xperia Arc Android Development] rsimas:
No updates?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MrTapa:
There is going to be a big one soon. Expect smooth as in project butter
[Xperia Arc Android Development] rsimas:
Can you tell a date?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ezro:
Don't ask for ETA, man.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bobgeneric:
Hi devs!!

Help please, how to update to build .587?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MrTapa:
Soon

Just finishing framework mods
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MrTapa:
Via flastool
[Xperia Arc Android Development] abdul1987:
This was the best n very highly customized ICS Rom I have come across. To be frank it is very smooth. :thumbup: Not to underestimate other devs but this ROM can dominate any other ROMS in performance.

But yeah had probs while installing due to unresponsive touch. Not a big deal for me. I started getting bootloops due to Bluetooth. Tried reinstalling thrice but didnt succeed. Hope to fix it in next update. ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ezro:
It might be your kernel. I've been using this ROM since last week on my Xperia pro mk16 and works great. No touch or bluetooth problem.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] abdul1987:
I have tried many ROMS. None had bootloops due to Bluetooth.

May be I have to try with other kernel. ;)

Thanks for ur advice. :thumbup:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bobgeneric:
Where i find the file to flash? :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MrTapa:
I have ray. So please someone guide him
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bern4d1:
using flashtool that you can download from here

http://androxyde.github.com/index.html?1356045878000

then download the FTF file for your ST18i here

http://www.4shared.com/rar/2tk6_gmw/ST18i_41B0587_CE_1252-3693.html

extract the ftf file and put it in C:\Flashtool\firmware then open flashtool

click on the thunder icon

choose flashmode

choose the file you just downloaded

click ok and wait until a figure comes out

connect your phone in flashmode (connect via USB while keep holding the back button) and wait until finish

reboot your device and the first boot will take longer time.

(NOTE: remember, this step will flash your phone like new one, data will be lost, so back up first)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bobgeneric:
:victory:

I got it

Thank you so much!!! for help and patience :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] HotKillerZzz:
no updates?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MrTapa:
Well there is going to be one. But give me some time. I work alone. I am 14. I have exams. I have school. I have friends. I am trying to collect every mod for you. I am trying to give you project butter. So i cant give ETA!!!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ezro:
Don't ask for eta

Read previous post and don't ask for ETA.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bern4d1:
I just realized or am I wrong? but there's no Arc S file in the OptiMax_Device_Optimizer_v2.1.zip file.

In aroma, yes there is, but in the zip file, no. And now http://play.google.com read my device as LT15i.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MrTapa:
Yes there is no file in optimizer. Diff between arc and arc s are in build prop wich is installed with the rom. So in optimizer its the same if u select arc or arc s. Dunno about g play. Check your build. Prop
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MrTapa:
After 3 days of hard work with me and my friend. I have do what i wanted. And beleve me No one has done this before:)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jader13254:

[Xperia Arc Android Development] jader13254:

[Xperia Arc Android Development] MrTapa:
I have made some changes to the clock. Now it looks final:)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jader13254:
No offence, nice work, but with aosp lock & the old looks better ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MrTapa:
Yes. Of course. But ppl requested to see with this lock. I have the toggle. So its easy to think wich is better for your personal use:). But teh AM PM is teh best ever. I am in love with it
[Xperia Arc Android Development] n3n00:
So I guess 3.0 update is coming soon? Might try this ROM...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MrTapa:

[Xperia Arc Android Development] Master of Bisaster:

[Xperia Arc Android Development] MK_II:
So, can I update 3.0 from 2.0? :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MrTapa:
Factory reset is recommended
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MrTapa:
OptiMax 3.0

Improved all speed of frameworks

Introducing Full AOSP framework

Complete or hybrid AOSP xperiance

Removed some stuff

Added some stuff

Better NXT Theme

New NXT framework

Cybershot 6.7.2

Hopefully fixed messeging bug

New SMS app in Xepria Hybrid Theme

Iremoved project butter tweak cuz of incompitabilityes. But i made great framework and ram usage. So it will be smooth like JB

Now there are 3 frameworks- everyone of them with lockscreen toggle Between aosp/sony.

Hold Back to kill application. Volume control still exists. OnScreen Buttons toggle in settings.

Xperia GO settings made by me. With theme backgrounds.

Jelly Bean Clock made by me and smali by CTCaer.

And bunch of other stuff i forgot
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Futurust:
Great! Can't wait to try it out. The new update wil also be for all of xperia 2011 line ups right?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] devilldey:
@Mr.Tapa which kernel you recomended?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MrTapa:
Well. yes. Sandy will port it to MDPI. And i will try to make it available for the PLAY
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MrTapa:
Well maybe lupus. I dont have arc. I am using xKernel but sirkay did not made its last version for ARC and ARC S. Any stock .587 based kernel does teh work:)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] rsimas:
You will release the rom today?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MrTapa:
yes today
[Xperia Arc Android Development] beliar1977:

Little Review:

+ Best Customisation in AROMA seen so far ;) (lots of stuff :good:)

+ Great User Interface - New Clock, AOSP/Xperia etc...

+ Great Lockscreen (Font)

- Strange Animations (Launcher etc..)

- Little Lag (Recent Apps, AOSP Launcher)

Overall its good, don't think this is "hating post" or anything, just my experience.

Thanks... :fingers-crossed:

Used with AOSP Framework and Xperia arc S

Little Tip for arc S Users: Flash Optimax Device Optimizer after installing ROM, or Touchscreen won't work good :p

Also, Your "Project Butter" stuff, is kernel related ^^ - Jelly Bean+ Kernel
[Xperia Arc Android Development] XtremeSilencer:
Hey Mr Tapa ,

This is bad :(

Just when I switch to gb you release 3.0!!!

Now I am coming back to ics to try this

I.think its legendary hehe

Respect your work thanks :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MrTapa:
Hope you guys like it. Icant ensure to be perfect cuz. Everyone started pushing me with those "oh i cant wait, oh when you relese"

So i may have missed some things.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] iShadows:

[Xperia Arc Android Development] MrTapa:

[Xperia Arc Android Development] Futurust:
Can I ask why do is it not necessary in the instructions to wipe data and system in unlocked bootloaders? Or do we still need to wipe even if we are on unlockes bl? I'm confused :confused:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MrTapa:

Well, its a 5* ROM & your a great dev, if you want to hear bro :D (I did rate 5*)

[Xperia Arc Android Development] megeszlek:
As far as I remember, in the previous version of this rom the hw keyboard worked the way it was working on the stock rom on Xperia Pro (I mean there were suggestions during the hw keyboard was used). Am I right? If so, is it still exists on this version?

Havent changed anything acording to keyboard

[Xperia Arc Android Development] szulco:
Same here. Reflash with full wipe caused phone hang on Sony logo ;(
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MrTapa:
Maybev i ahve missed something. But that tih lt15i shall not be the problem. Please flash optimizer 3.2 It is with working wi fi. If it doesnt after that. Then flash your kernel modules or reflash the kernel
[Xperia Arc Android Development] thefirecrow:
Did.you found a solution for mobile network?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MrTapa:
You must be on locked bootloader. ITs quite specific . Cuz recovery is wiped. Causing system faliour. Flash ftf and then you know your steps. SOrry. But wi fi realy works with v3.2
[Xperia Arc Android Development] thefirecrow:
Man didi you found a way to fix the network problem?

Nice ROM..

My first impression about this rom is :

+ Many Features

- Many Features

:D .. Your rom, has a nice lot feature. Really suitable for title "[Unleash your phone|The way you like]".

Too bad, lack screenshot, so for new user, kinda confusing, about which one to choose. :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MrTapa:
Just keep trying

Backlight in hw keyboard in my pro didn't work, neither did symbols and language keys on it... I think i had selected nexus kb in aroma or something.

I tried flashing stock ics keyboard, it usually works, but it didn't on this rom. You should consider stock keyb option for PRO users. :)

HELP : I would like to change the Ram Manger Free with the Ram Manger Pro apk...i changed the apk in system/app and then changed name but then i get an FC when choosing in setting .
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MrTapa:
I prefer smatrassv2 and cfq. For the HDMI issue. Try with this http://d-h.st/2qJ. But remove build prop from teh zip if you are on pc. If you are on phone. Backup your current build.prop. Flash teh zip. then replace with the backed build prop
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MrTapa:
Yep. Its obvious that you get FC. Sorry. I cant help you. Settings are made for Ram Manager free. And i wonder why you even use PRO. Balanced option is the same in games as Hard gaming. And same in multitasking as hard multitasking. I have tested it
[Xperia Arc Android Development] abdul1987:
Thanks for ur quick response. Sure will give a try.

Thanks a ton for such an awesome ROM. :good:

Alright, I installed ROM from scratch again... it works very nice.

PRO users... select Stock Keyboard in AROMA if you want a fully working HW keyboard... Sym, Lang and status notifications work fine.

I'm going to test ROM now :)... see you in a few. Btw, Downloading internet settings fails... it did fail in my first isntall as well... I added the APN manually though, no big deal.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] szulco:
OK, i figured out what went wrong while reflashing. Now please tell me why themes section under settings menu is empty? Where can I find compatible themes?

any ideal ?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] giannhs_n:
Great Rom but still unusable for pro users..I get sys freeze if I select se framework and ics dialer after some trys I manage to understand it.. Installed se framework with se dealer booted but hw lights are buggy, even I set the values alone to make them work when screen goes off they reset.. The rest work ok great ui through.. But I miss small apps feature.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] abdul1987:
WoW. Thats great. It works. Thnks dev.:good::good::good:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] atmos929:
I gotta say I totally loved both 4.2 JB and XperiaTabbed status bars (tabbed, and big buttons)... but they both show a little desktop resize in height everytime you open/close notifications, nothing serious at all but I am just itchy like that :). I have not checked touchwiz and transparent yet.

ROM overall feels very smooth, and it seems to eliminate some lag I get on some puzzle games I like... one question, is RAM manager really necessary? isn't supercharger suppossed to be, let me quote here, "the ultimate solution to multitask, good performance for games, and no redraws"? :P.... I'm just asking... also I seem to be able to only select RAM multitasking on it...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Master of Bisaster:
This desktop resizement "issue" can be solved by unchecking "Full Screen" in System UI preferences, in the second tab, then reboot! :good:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] atmos929:
damn... missed that... gotta reflash again now... for the third time this morning :)... this ROM got me kinda excited :P. Thanks.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Master of Bisaster:
Why reflash, you just have to change this in system ui preferences?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] atmos929:
cuz I had already reflashed before your answer, and selected huuh... the first notification bar, dun remember name, it's not tabbed... :P

dun worry, got it fine now :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] atmos929:
I probably missed it yesterday... but it was until at night that I noticed that hw keyboard backlight isn't working for xperia pro :(... again, tried flashing stock ics keyb and wasn't fixed.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MK_II:
sir, 3.0 is wonderful!!:good::fingers-crossed:

but there are some problems for xperia pro.

the light of physical keyboard are turn off all the time.

and the speed of wake up from screen off to lock screen is lower (this is just i feel, so you may ignore me)

thus, would u mind to fix the back light?

and i have time to wait:victory:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MrTapa:
I ahvent changed anything in device optimizer. Strange. Try the old one:http://d-h.st/Iso
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Kasmo:
really great rom

specially, i like how it looks lockscreen when playing music

BTW, when you are on AROMA installer, there're some repeated options, like dialer or gallery, so you can select as many as you want. The problem it's on first install having 3 or 4 app's doing same thing so you need to flash it again and again for testing. Maybe you should post screenshots showing different options in 'aroma'.

PS: sorry for my english ._.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] atmos929:
still no backlight on hw keyboard for PRO :)... thanks for your efforts.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Devoct:
couple of things i want to mention.

selected Arc in Aroma, but ended up with Arc S build.prop, it's not a big deal, but maybe you could look into that.

got purple tint when capturing image on some conditions. never faced this purple tint on another ICS ROM with Cybershot(or haven't i do enough shoots to produce it?), is it ROM related?

and can i ask for an add-on or Aroma option, that i prefer the stock xperia, when you get notification on status bar animation, stock xperia windows and transitions animation, and stock xperia toast notification?

Ram Manager Free app conflicts with V6, i uninstalled Ram Manager Free with TB, could i remove "Ram Manager" menu from settings? as it will definitely FC when selected.

thanks, overall it's a great ROM.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] dolkic:
installed on arc s locked two days ago. without doubt the best ics rom. very fast and battery life is amazing even on stock. love the aroma, and the fact that we can mix sony and aosp look.

congrats to dev, will use it from now on...

cheers!
