you you have to have the phone rooted and the CWM to do this (if you dont know how to do tell me, OR

Installation instruction for Zelly Cream FULL ROM (Base ROM and v2.5)

Before installing this rom, make sure you have a complete nandroid backup and you have performed all the necessary steps, otherwise you may get bootloop. I will not be responsible for any kind of damage or loss to your phone, do this at your own risk. Read carefully and follow the steps to install the rom.

* Locked BL

1. Reboot to cwm.

2. Wipe data/factory reset.

3. Wipe cache partition.

4. Wipe dalvic cache under advanced menu.

5. Wipe battery stats under advanced menu.

6. Format data under mount and storage menu.

7. Format system under mount and storage menu.

8. Format cache under mount and storage menu.

9. Install zip from sd card.

10. Follow the steps in aroma installer to install the rom.

11. Uncheck "Reboot device" after installation completed and click on next to go back to CWM.

12. Now reboot your phone..

* Unlocked BL

1. First flash stock .587 ftf file for your device to avoid bootloop. (below is the link)

2. Install your desired kernel. (see list of recommended kernels.)

3. Reboot to cwm.

4. Wipe data/factory reset.

5. Wipe cache partition.

6. Wipe dalvic cache under advanced menu.

7. Wipe battery stats under advanced menu.

8. Format data under mount and storage menu.

9. Format system under mount and storage menu.

10. Format cache under mount and storage menu.

11. Install zip from sd card.

12. Follow the steps in aroma installer to install the rom.

13. Uncheck "Reboot device" after installation completed and click on next to go back to CWM.

12. Now reboot your phone..

Note: After installation, first boot may take several minutes (to create cache, dalvic cache etc.) to start your device. Leave your device for 20-30 minutes to settle down the rom. Also at first boot you may notice a high ram usages (less free ram). It is natural because android system occupy a lot of memory while settling down the new rom. After 30-40 minutes reboot your device and you are now ready to fly with your newly installed rom.

Hi Dear Friends

Who can give me advise how to fix the next issues:

- I have Xperia Pro and when hardware keyboard is opened I cant unlock my phone. Simply there is no slidebar (line from left to right) on the screen. Ive tried to wipe everything possible, tried to reinstal rom, tried to change kernel, nothing have helped.

- Cant change status bar to that one which has more options (as I think it is Xperia Z SystemUI).

- hardware keyboard does not change language (button with "world" symbol does not work).

Rom: Zelly Cream v3.0.1

Kernel: Vengeance v1.38

Thank in advance!

I installed this rom on my wife's phone. So far it works fine. There is however one annoying issue. When the alarm goes off, it will increase the volume with each beep, until it reaches an obnoxiously loud level within three beeps, or so. I can't find a way to turn this 'feature' off. I just want the alarm to keep beeping on the same volume, without ever increasing. Is this possible? If so, how?

I know you said it was the last build but any chance you would consider making your ROM Honami based?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] gagan.u20:
There are lots of honami stuffs are in themes and apps section. Just download and flash them if you want.

Also there are some framework mods are also present then gives a honami look.

Right now I am looking forward to build JB rom but the problem is still my slow internet.

So in less or more days, you may expect a JB rom from me but no more ICS based rom.

Background and translation problems

This is a great rom!

But I'm facing some problems on the inface, like things that has no translation for other languages than english (I'm brazilian, so I use the rom in portuguese)

I have searched in xda and google and no results found :(

My only wish is a way to fix this little problems on this beautiful rom

Thanks again for this amazing work!

[Xperia Arc Android Development] King of Procrastinators:
I am using Xperia Arc with locked bootloader. It is on stock .587 kernel rooted using the method of flashing .431 kernel, rooting using doomlord's script then flashing .587 kernel back.

I have tried to install this rom using following the instructions listen word by word:

Everything goes fine until step 12. It simply enters a boot loop after the restart and I have to reflash the stock .587 using flashtool to get the phone working again.

I have downloaded the Rom from the first mirror twice (because the original dropbox link is not working) to eliminate bad download and tried to install the Rom twice (ie. install this rom on fresh .587 stock Rom + kernel > reboot in CWM > Get bootloop > Use flashtool to flash stock Rom and kernel again > successfully install Rom > reboot in CWM > Boot loop).

How do I fix this?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] gagan.u20:
I think you are using some apps which does not have any translation to your language.

Since I am not the developer of these apps, I think you should ask to developer of these apps to add a translation to your language.

Did you format System, Data and Cache under mount and storage??

It is the most important step to flash a rom.

If so then let me know.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Hyoni:
Thanks for the answer, Gargan

This is not because the app, when I used another rom based on ICS the background changed according the theme...

And in the status bar is the problem with translation, I tried in French and Spanish and still with no translation...

The weekday changes according the language, but the button don't :(

How does a launcher cause bootloop?

Launcher causes bootloop if there is no launcher what wil your system boot to?

It either causes bootloop or gets stuck on a black screen showing nothing except notification bar.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] pechy87:
Hi Gagan,

I really like your ROM - And it is very close to be "Bug free". Anyway I have little (unpleasant) issue - it happens to me in every ROMs you prepared for us. On other ROMs I wasn't facing this issue.

When I start Sygic Navigation and use it for more than 30 minutes (it means nothing else is used for 30 minutes - only this app with Max Brightness and AC adapter in) the message "google services stopped to work" appear - I have to press OK (because everything is shaddow) and then it continue working. But next few minutes it resets... ...after reset, when I do all the "login steps" and run Sygic again, it works for next cca 30 minutes and everything happened again.

I have always around 100MB free RAM before I run the Sygic...

Recently, when I was travelling to foreign place by my Peugeot 206 :) it made me quite bit upset.

This is only one thing which makes your ROM unusable for me, unfortunatelly :((

Is anyone facing this issue also?

Do you have any idea how to solve it? I wouldn't like to change the Navigation software since it wasn't cheap...

Thanks
[Xperia Arc Android Development] gaslaw:
reflash

I also face the same issue when I wanted to install the ROM for the first time, i have to do it again and again for up to five times. Don't get tired it's gonna work, make sure you wipe everything. I'm still using the ROM since the day it was released. GREAT ROM [[f9like]]

No live wallpaper option

Hi,

can anyone help there is no option to set live wallpaper in v3.0.1 can you guys help how can I set live wallpaper.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] King of Procrastinators:
I'm glad I wasn't the only one. So did you use the same options every time you tried or did you fiddle with the install until you found the right "setting" that will allow you to install?

The whole reflashing + install process takes a while and doing a few adds up.....spending 1 hour trying to install a Rom really isn't my idea of fun.

I see that the newest rom is named "Zelly Cream v3.0.1 (10/06/13) - Final Build" Does this mean there will be no more updates?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] gagan.u20:
Download file from attachment and put it under /system/app and set permission to rw--r--r and reboot.

Note: This is not a live wallpaper, it is live wallpaper picker app. You've to install live wallpaper and then you can pick it from your device's setting.

Yep, same procedure was repeated before I got it working. I'll advice you allow the ROM to settle after installation for like 10-15min before you reboot

I'm done trying to get this rom to work

OK, I've tried to install this rom 3 more times on locked BL Xperia Arc (Yes, I wiped everything just like any other Rom install). All 3 times gave me the bootloop so I've given up on this Rom completely.

Something interesting I noticed is that you can check your phone status during the installation in AROMA. It actually says I have a Xperia Neo/neoV which is obviously wrong. Maybe it has something to do with that?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] gaslaw:
It actually says I have a Xperia Neo/neoV too for me, I don't know why you're unlucky. maybe gangan will say something about it, this ROM is lighter than previous versions. wait a minute; what stock ROM do you have installed? Tell the details how you get you stock ROM installed and what kennel version you've got with it
[Xperia Arc Android Development] gaslaw:
What is your latest work or what are you planning next?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] gagan.u20:
Make sure you've stock ICS rom with stock kernel before flashing this rom.

I've Neo V and so I put Neo V in device name. It will show Neo V in device selection while flashing this rom on any Xperia 2011 device but it does not related to the rom installation, it is just a label nothing else.

If you are getting bootloop always then you may not follow all the steps correctly.

Right now I've some pending projects to complete and my some other apps that are not finished yet.

So after completing all these projects I'll look forward to make a 4.3/Cm10.2 based rom for our devices.

I wish we will get a stable version of CM10.2 soon, our devs are working very hard.

Also I'm planning to register my own company for app development in next few months. :)

Like I have already posted before in this same thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=45135589#post45135589

My device: Xperia Arc with locked bootloader

Method of root:

1. Flash official stock 4.1.B.0.587 rom+kernel using flashtool

2. Flash 4.1.B.0.431 kernel using flashtool to allow root

3. Use doomlord's script to root the phone http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1601038

4. Flash back stock .587 kernel

5. Install CWM

6. Boot to recovery

7. Wipe everything like instructed in the OP (quoted in my last reply)

8. Install Zelly Cream

9. Get to the end and reboot in recovery as instructed

10. BOOTLOOP

I do the exact same thing with a different rom (ie. Azumi, ultimate HD4/5 etc.) and it never gives me bootloop. The fact that someone else with Xperia Arc reports the same problem means that it's not just me and that there is something really wrong with this rom that needs to be fixed. I am very keen to try out this rom but if I can't install it at all how do I even try?

I don't know if this would help you find the problem but after the sony logo appears during bootloop, the screen goes blank but there's a thick horizontal line that is slightly lighter than the rest of the screen before it reboots and shows the sony logo again. I have tried to demonstrate it here: http://i.imgur.com/uFNQfn8.jpg
[Xperia Arc Android Development] gagan.u20:
Look at the second step, you said "Flash 4.1.B.0.431 kernel using flashtool to allow root"

.431 kernel do not support root, you've to flash .562 kernel to root your device and after rooting you can flash .431 or .587 kernel.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] King of Procrastinators:
Are you serious right now?

Instead of admitting that there's something wrong with your rom and try to fix it you are questioning whether I even have root after I've told you my procedure many times.

How could I install CWM without root?

How could I boot to recovery without root?

How could I try to install your rom without root?

How have I been able to install other roms without root?

Like I have stated before (because you sure like to make me repeat myself) I have done everything as instructed and I get bootloop every time. The fact that another user reports having the same problem and you won't stop asking me to "wipe everything before install" and "you can't have a rooted phone because you can't root .431" is really annoying.

If you don't want to fix it then just say so and I will stop posting in this thread. But stop trying to make it sound like it's my fault your rom won't work.

PS: google or search the forums for Xperia rooting guide and you'll find that .431 is able to be rooted. This is the guide I used http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1683957 I may be using a slightly outdated guide but that does not change the final outcome: I will have a Xperia Arc rooted on the .587 kernel.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] gagan.u20:
If it would be my rom fault then none of here could install my rom. :silly:

I was just trying to give a solution but I think you are smart enough and can solve the problem by yourself. :p

So if you are not able to solve, just switch to another rom because in this condition I can't help you.

Also I've stopped development of this rom, so you can try a newer and a better one.

How could I install CWM without root?

- yes you can. need no root. use flashtool and flash custom kernel.

How could I boot to recovery without root?

- yes you can. all stocks phone can boot to recovery. if you have CWM, you boot to CWM recovery

How could I try to install your rom without root?

- yes you can. once you have cwm installed. custom rom most of the time rooted.

How have I been able to install other roms without root?

- custom rom done with cwm. stock rom with flashtool

i'm not backing up this rom but i'm here to answer your questions.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] King of Procrastinators:
I feel like a broken record. See my previous posts where I say: "I have a locked bootloader."

Yes, of course it reported successful root. How else am I able to install CWM and boot to recovery and install other roms without unlocking my bootloader?

I am not angry, I moved on to other roms that actually work. I simply find it annoying that the creator of the rom refuses to acknowledge the problem and suggest "solutions" that are of no use because they are things I have done already as stated in MULTIPLE posts.

You should also heed your own advice: Don't just assume the problem is on my end.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] Helik42:
Jesus H. - the problem is something at your end - whether its you or your phone . You`re the one making the assumptions or being in denial (ie "I don`t want it to be that , therefore its not" , if no others have reported this then logic is there is something different about your phone , whether its knackered or you did something different is for you to sort out .

I`ve worked in maintenance for 25years and my sig holds true - given a constant input (your phone) , with a constant process (rooting / ROM installation) , you will ALWAYS end up with a constant output (a successfully rooted and ROMed phone) . If you change the input or the process , then your output will fail . So either its your phone or your actions .

And you are angry , your lack of respect to someone who didn`t do this for money shows this - just denying it doesn`t make it true .
