[KERNEL][ICS] Vengeance [ARC/S/PRO][1.32][18/02/13]

[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]what's i wrong with ?[/FONT]
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Drupry:
first flash original ftf rom after that wipe data, cachce, dalvik cache and install Viper rom
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Mo7mD.ZaYOnA:
The same problemPlease ROM's owner writing step-by-step to install flash compatible Kernel and this rom
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jerrytan93:
I add his ROM in credits because jader said that I used his stuff in his ROM.

If you don't even know how to install a ROM step by step, sorry to say that but you can change to another ROM.. there are so many user here are giving a good feedback and trying their best to provides you a solution but what you do here is just reporting "BOOTLOOP!!"

- First, flash the LT18i 4.0.4 official firmware via flashtool and excluding Simlock, kernel

- Flash the kernel via fastboot, Vengeance is giving a good result here

- Flash the ROM in recovery, follow all the installation step in AROMA, remember to choose the correct kernel modules

- After finished install, reboot phone

- Wait for 5 minutes and your phone will boot up
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Mo7mD.ZaYOnA:
Dear i do that and getting a boot-loop (freezes at boot animation and restart)

i'll try again today
[Xperia Arc Android Development] syam7863:
After installing ArcS original ftf, U have to on your phone first until it finishes the boot.

Then only u flash this ROM

:)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] armutyus:
i didn't understand why everyone complaining about battery? i think battery is very good, my usage is not hard but not daily too. a bit more than daily usage. wifi or 3g always open, twitter always open(sometimes background but always running), whatsapp is my essential :D i use a lot, phonechievements always running, internet surfing, playing game, listening music, and mostly after 15h i still have %40-50 sometimes %60 battery.

i think this is very good.

vengeance kernel 1.32 and this rom's settings. no any mod or tweaks in my rom.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] aliemrey:
very nice rom. i liked it.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] e1i@zzz:
That´s weird. with 3G on and Whatsapp open, I can see the battery drainging from 70 to 58% in 40 min, while nothing more is open...

Gaming experience is awesome with smartassv2/deadline @1,2 Ghz, but battery is not that great in my opinion.

Using vengegeance 1.3.1, since it is better in antutu and better in graphics, too

and download music info still not working :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] deckone:
Re: [ROM][2011 Xperia][18/2/13] Viper Xperia V3.0 - The New XPERIAnce

Download music info in 1st page :thumbup:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] e1i@zzz:
Installed the fix, rebooted, placed semcmetdadatcleanup to system/app, set permissions, rebooted.

went to download music info, hit "download music infos", it´s prepairing, getting 8-13 titles and after that it says "network error, no updates availible" and that´s it :(

I´ve done it like 4 times, also cleared data off walkman and download music info, too.

result remains the same.

I doubt my music library is corrupted or something like that...

any idea?

Re: [ROM][2011 Xperia][18/2/13] Viper Xperia V3.0 - The New XPERIAnce

In 2.1, i have same proplem. So i download in a track not download all :D

---------- Post added at 06:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:57 PM ----------

Will u make next update include internal memory mod, jerry?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] e1i@zzz:
Really? Nice! I thought I was the only one! :D

Hey jerry, could you please have a look onto it? so it looks like I´m not the only one having problems with the downloading of the music info in batch :(

Thanks in advance! :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] deckone:
hm, i remember this proplem've posted before, and i dont remember Jerry's answer =))
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jerrytan93:
Just use the D2EXT mod from this forum.. The more things/ mods I included into the ROM, there will be more problems/ issues report from user.. :p

I will try my best for it.. :)

1. Delete all music tracks from SD card then copy them again from PC

2. Clear the data from Settings > Apps for these applications: "Download Music Info", "CredentialManagerService", "Download Manager", "DRM Protected Content Storage", "DRMDialogs", "Media Storage"

3. Reboot

I'm really hard to figure out why some of you are unable to fix download music info, all the steps I describe here are just a blind attempt to fix the issue.. hopefully this works for you all.. and then report to me.. thanks.. ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] XtremeSilencer:
my internal memory increaser works with this rom with lupusv9/ vaengance / rush / arc knight v4 / if anyone etsts more kernels please post in my thread thanks!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] thejackgroup:
any apdate viper 4 ?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] e1i@zzz:
Greatly appreciated:highfive:

Somehow, the range of the music info beeing downloaded has increased to 23, but after that, same problem. Lost network connection, no updates available, 1 title updated....

Anyhow, thanks for your effort, looking forward to your next great update! :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Kantee:
I tried twice to install v3 with wipe cache & dalvik but stuck at sony logo again.Actually, installing is long and stay long time at 95% for finalizing like the first time, I don't know why.

Arc s with locked bl.

I think i have to make a clean install with full wipe and format system but I will lost my app etc...

I give up for the moment :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] goce.nakov:
Back Up your apps with Titanium?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Kantee:
Yes of course but I have to reinstall call logs, contacts, apps, account ... I'm lazy today and i'm just restored 2.1 with cwm before flashing stock rom with flashtools and kernel, root ..etc..
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jerrytan93:

[Xperia Arc Android Development] palkia171993:
Full ROM mean a clean install with everything wiped for my phone then

How about performance and battery, will they get any improvement? It's fine now but of course it could be better. This ROM is already rich in feature so improving performance, stability, battery would mean more. Anyway keep up your good work and looking forward to your update.:good:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] syam7863:
Nice one Jerry

Hope it can cure the battery consumption too as v3.0 consumes more than 2.1

:)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] abdul1987:
+1. Same here. Battery consumption is too high. But Performance Unmatched.

Thank you dev.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Mo7mD.ZaYOnA:
Good ROMa BIG thanks for this work

Now i have used ViperXperia_V3.0 - Dev-host link

but i have notification from OTA update to ViperXperia_V2.1 just ignore it :DConversation not show for me,i have flashed Xperia S Conversation

and flash Magnifying Glass

Re: [ROM][2011 Xperia][18/2/13] Viper Xperia V3.0 - The New XPERIAnce

In walkman, why i tick clear audio+, it dont allow me go to sound enhancements?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] o._.o:
One thing. I am using this ROM, plus Vengeanes Kernel.

I use the powerful xperia T launcher, it show a little lag when I slide from one page to another page in the homescreen,

It seems that it need some seconds to load the widgets on that page when I try to go to that page

An on that page showing me some lag, it contains a widget called "Simple Calendar Widget", with my school timetable on it.

Sorry for my English. And thanks very much for you Chinese Keyboard
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jerrytan93:
Full ROM is just mean you have to download 300MB++ zip file, as always no need to full wipe if you have no problem with previous version, just wipe cache and dalvik then you are good to go.. :good:

Will have a look at missing Conversation.. thanks for the report.. :)

Ask Sony to fix that for you.. :p Clear Audio+ cannot use together with Sound Enhancement, this is the rule set by Walkman

I will try to fix the home screen lags.. :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] kochthespeed:
I had the same "problem" with this widget ("Simple Calendar Widget"), and now with Bussines Calendar Widget - a little lag.

I hope that Dev will find the solution for that.

Except that everything is great. I didn´t have any problem with this ROM like with some other ROMs.

Chears Dev.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] arulradz:
Thank you and can't wait for it

By far, this is the most perfect rom for my Arc S and I really mean it because I have try many of them and this one satisfy me.. of course not for heavy gamer, you got gb for that..but still, a lot room for improvement.. go for it...fighting!!:fingers-crossed:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] eLGi:
Hi, ROM is awesome (and very fast compared to other ICS ROMs and even stock), but I have one problem. I haave installed custom sms app and removed sms.apk from system/app folder, and the problem is that even though I do receive notifications about sms but I can't see them in the app (I see only sent sms) can someone upload sms.apk for me, or explain how to fix it? It never happened to me before (and I have removed sms.apk multiple times before).
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jerrytan93:
Re: [ROM][2011 Xperia][18/2/13] Viper Xperia V3.0 - The New XPERIAnce

Reflash the ROM.. ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] deckone:
will next update include skip track by vol key?:D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jerrytan93:
V3.5 Released!

Viper Xperia V3.5 Released!! :D

No need to wipe if no problem with previous version.. even though coming from 2.1.. :)

also have a look at Themes & Mods section in post 4, there are some new mods as a flashable zip for you all.. ;)

Have a nice day and cheers! :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Mazellat:
How can we flash new update over v2.1 bro? Full wipe or what?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] e1i@zzz:
Very well done jerry, two questions:

1. Is download music info fixed? :)

2. Are there performance updates aswell by updating to 3.5? didn´t see new tweaks or any other stuff :)

Keep it up mate! ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] goce.nakov:
C'mon man, it's been answered like 100 times.....If you don;t have any problems with previous versions, then just wipe cache and Dalvik Cache
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Mazellat:
:DThanks I wanted to make sure that bro:good:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jerrytan93:
No need to wipe if no problem with previous version.. even though coming from 2.1.. ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jerrytan93:
1. Hope so.. I never have the problem with it as you know.. even though the download music info stopped at some time but I still can press "resume" and it does what it should do... :)

2. There are some internal tweaks for the system, and also some small bug fix.. ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Mazellat:
Thank you bro you and your Rom are best for me.I think your rom better then Ultimate HD,too:good:;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jerrytan93:
Woots.. believe me jader does not like to see this.. :p
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Mazellat:
Maybe,but I think this is true you are BEST :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jader13254:
:D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] deckone:
Hey jerry, fogot me :D

And one question not about rom: i see folder LOST.DIR in sd card, it very large. So i want to del it, but i dont know it have any damage?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jerrytan93:
Yeah added it back in V3.5 .. previous version I removed it accidentally.. :p

LOST.DIR can be delete safety and it will come back after a reboot.. it's something like cache if not mistaken.. ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] e1i@zzz:
And Downloading :)

Have to admit, it really feels bit snappier than the other well known rom mentioned some posts before...

Did you change something regarding music info?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jerrytan93:
I reverted some Walkman mod related files from V1 since you reported that it works well in earlier version.. please report to me after that.. thanks.. :)

Thanks V3.5.Sorry Bootloop 3x....ftf.587-cwm fles V3.5-bootloop.Arc s locked bl.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] scraber:
same here

got stuck at first boot
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Tesla:
Somehow my download stops at half size.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] e1i@zzz:
Joop, Bootloop here, too, clean and fresh install :)

Vengeance 1.31
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Tesla:
Got it now. Working good so far :good:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] scraber:
How?

When I installed this got stuck on first boot for about 5 minutes or even more...

Tried installing twice... same thing
[Xperia Arc Android Development] e1i@zzz:
His problem was only download related.

Somehow I think bootloop is caused by selecting arc s in aroma, but well, reverted to 3.0 :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bluxe:
@jerrytan93

can you add "Xperia S Home Launcher" (4x4 version, if possible) ? I really like that.. I searched a lot of times but could not find..

only i found for gb. anywhere no for ics.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] armutyus:
thanks for new update, i'm downloading and install soon. and have a question; should i do the instruction on the 4th post for "music info" again, after install v3.5?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Tesla:
Well.. I had Vengeance Kernel and Viper 3.0.

I Wiped Cache and dalvik.

Started 3.5 aroma.

Selected what i wanted and Vengeance Kernel.

Did not choose reboot, went back to CWM.

Reboot system.

Thats it.

Btw.. I have an Arc that i have made to a Arc S with Arc S ICS and then Arc S Vengeance Kernel so i choose Arc S in Aroma.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] e1i@zzz:
did the job. But well, so it´s not meant to be as a fresh install, anyhow, working :)

let´s see the smoothness :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] kochthespeed:
+ 1
[Xperia Arc Android Development] e1i@zzz:
Well, reflashing download music info zip and seting permissions to semcmetadatacleanup on 3.5 didn´t help, problem persists :(

Thanks anyway for your efforts!

Just from what I noticed:

please focus in the next update on performance improvement. Though it´s very smooth, sometimes it get´s microlags, especially while switching the pages on homscreen.

well, download music info, I don´t think it will be fixed anymore :(

Concerning Battery no feedback is possible atm, it´s too new

And please have a look on gaming improvement too such as graphics. not sure, but I think on jaders rom there are graphics bit more detailed...

Switched back to yours though :)

:cyclops:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Asaliah:

[Xperia Arc Android Development] deckone:
Re: [ROM][2011 Xperia][27/2/13] Viper Xperia V3.5 - The New XPERIAnce

---------- Post added at 08:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:02 AM ----------

I think battery gugu app just only work with snapdragon, right? And i remember arc/s dont use snapdragon @@
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jerrytan93:
I don't know why there are so many bootloops here.. do you guys check the md5 for the downloaded ROM zip? maybe this is caused by incomplete download? If you don't know what is md5 then download my md5 checker software attached in this post, just to make sure bootloops is not caused by user error.

If your md5 match.. then try to install my ROM on top of your previous version, then just format cache and dalvik only

Use Xperia T launcher with advanced control in AROMA

Yes.. do it every time after you updated your ROM.. ;)

Will implement "Project Butter" tweaks in next version to boost the ROM performance.. ;)

give me some more time and I will bring this ROM to the top, note that this ROM is just ONE MONTH OLD and there are already so much user using it.. :D

Then install this on top of V3.0.. then wipe cache and dalvik and you are fine

Nope.. it's universal actually.. ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] deckone:
So 3.5 have skip track by vol key? How to use this? :D

[Xperia Arc Android Development] jerrytan93:
Turn off the screen while playing music in Walkman, then press and hold the volume button for 3 seconds.. :)

Do you have install any previous version of my ROM before? if yes which version is working for you?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] rjmayhem:
Hi sir..may I ask how to use the md5 checker ?? and how to know the md5 code of the ROM like UHD 3.0.2??

oh so its in dev-host ..sorry for the noob question ^_^
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jerrytan93:
You can get the md5 checksum in dev host where you downloading the ROM

- Copy all the code (numbers + alphabets).. This is for ViperXperia v3.5: bd5f7a1986f3a064bc45768f3b7792ba

- Open the md5 application, press the "Paste" button, your md5 code will be paste there

- Choose "Verify an MD5 checksum" in selection

- Click the "Browse" button and select the downloaded ROM zip

- Wait for 1 minutes and don't touch the application windows, it will like stuck / not responding, but after that it will show you the result

- If the application show "MD5 match", then you have a complete download

- If the appliccation show "MD5 NOT match" then download my ROM again
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Asaliah:
then installed the v3.0 and then the v3.5 and still not be able to boot

the md5 I gives correct

It can that the rom has trouble starting not be?

[Xperia Arc Android Development] jerrytan93:
Download the ROM and use it, or just extract it as you like

Now all is okay, thank you very much jerrytan for the quick response! :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] goce.nakov:
So I need to revert back to 1.0 right so I can use OTA again?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] rod555:
@jerrytan93

You can upload CWM OTA update zip?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soumya_digi:
If you're having root issues, flash this - UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.04, instead of doing things all over again..
[Xperia Arc Android Development] goce.nakov:
You still need to install thru CWM, OTA is just for download.

---------- Post added at 12:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:56 AM ----------

Redownloaded OTA again and still no ROOT, no Xloud, I am on Arc S with Serene kernel
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Stanleykyn:
I'd prefer to download OTA through PC. Is there a way you can share a direct link to download OTA update on this thread
[Xperia Arc Android Development] al33m:
+1, my 3g network is pretty weak..a direct link to v1.1 would be much better for the users who want it this way..
[Xperia Arc Android Development] goce.nakov:
Here is mate mine final cons:

I did clean install with wiping/factory reset.

Installed V 1.0

Booted

Downloaded OTA V1.1

Installed

And still the ROM is not rooted, and Xloud want stay ticked, maybe you uploaded the wrong OTA :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] pierremtb:
Thx for the supersu.zip, it works

And music info too !!!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jerrytan93:
Dev host link available in download section.. :)

I am sure it is rooted in V1.0, maybe my OTA zip breaks the root access.. download the SuperSU update package from FAQ section or the one from few post above.. flash it in recovery to solve your problem.. I am sure it will be fixed in next major release.. ;)

For the xLoud, did you try to enable both of it in Walkman app and also Settings > Sound ?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jader13254:
Why everybody think he/she can use my icons, mods & eagleboy's mod without asking me and him for any permission?

I'm sorry, but atleast ask the creator, before including any mod of other persons into your ROM..

I thought, espescially you, as RT, should know that...

I & my friend EAGLEBOY did this mod in my free time, and we accept other people using our work, if they ask us..
[Xperia Arc Android Development] goce.nakov:
In walkman app you can only enable Clear Audio+, sound enchantments are crashing. But even with clear Audio+ ticked in Walkman app still Xloud want stay ticked under Settings/Sound. And touch sounds are gone, even they are selected in Settings
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Retrosid:
How is the gaming experience in this rom? Can we play Need for Speed™ Most Wanted and temple run 2 lagfree?

Also the battery saver has included the "stamina mode" from xperia Z?

What's the suggested baseband for best signal, 3G and battery combination?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] trojan01:
Thank you for your amazing ROM. Very fast , very smooth , very good... But i have a problem
