Racing Bean Version 3.1!​

(Rom for Xperia Arc and Arc S)

Description:

Racing Bean is a Jelly Bean based Rom for your Xperia Arc/S. It is simply the perfect blend between Battery life and pure speed. Gaming and multitasking. Sony and Nexus user interface. Latest Android features and stability.

But the best thing about this feature-packed rom is its speed. With a brilliant Antutu benchmark score of 6565, the Xperia Arc S surpasses even the Samsung Galaxy Tablet 10.1”. Testers have claimed it is the fastest rom available.

Changelog/Features:
