HELP, After install my Arc S went in bootloop, I have root and unlocked bootloader, I followed everything (except flashing boot.img since I can't from CWM) and now CWM isn't there anymore

EDIT: I can do things from the computer (flashtool etc), any way to reinstall clockwork and this rom correctly?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] kaszell:
Flash kernel with cwm.

Or recoverX.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Vincentmrl:
Thanks, CWM didn't show the boot.img so after a day of tries, I installed the boot.img with flashtool, then installed the OS with cwm. I got confused in the first part of the guide because I didn't know how to flash the boot.img. Well, the more I learn, the merrier :P

Where is V3.0

Where is V3.0 that was mentioned couple of pages back? Can any one please share? thanks
[Windows Phone 8s by HTC] THE.W!ZARD:
Hey guys I to know some info before buying.

- What do you think about battery life? "Normal usage"

- How high is the ringtone? "I have GS3 and it is very can't hear it when I am away from it"

- Does it lag?

- How good is Wi-fi reception?

- Is the screen clear during sunlight?

Thanks in advance
[Windows Phone 8s by HTC] Balldoh:
- As far as battery life goes, I can get through 2 days with regular texting, phone calls, Wi-fi etc.

- The ringtone is good enough imo as I've been able to hear it in fairly crowded environments (such as public transit).

- The only real lag that I have noticed is a slight stutter that occurs quite rarely (at least for me) when switching between apps. I think this will be fixed eventually as it seems software related...

- Compared to my old Nexus S, the Wi-fi reception is great. With my Nexus S, I could get at max 1/4 bars on the third floor (with the router being on the first). With my 8S, I can easily get 3-4 in the same spot.

- I think it's reasonably clear. On a sunny day with the display set to higher brightness, the clarity seemed almost the same as indoors. I've personally used it set at a lower brightness outdoors and can still see well enough. I'm not too sure how the visibility would compare to an S3 though.

Before buying also consider the 4gb of internal storage. I think only 1.8 of it is actually free for apps, and there is no way to move apps to a microSD as of yet. So if you are one to install many of them, I wouldn't recommend this phone. :)
[Windows Phone 8s by HTC] trizzo:
I absolutely agree with Balldoh. The only drawback is limited memory. Otherwise - great device.
[Windows Phone 8s by HTC] tadas_max:
I think the bigger draw back than the limited storage space is that the app and games selection is even more limited than the phone storage :D my gf owns this phone and its perfect for her. Few games few apps, she doesn't even know that some guys with this phone has problems :D

[Windows Phone 8s by HTC] ionutzsava:
I already want to sell it. It's an amazing phone, it looks amazing. The OS is great (at least this is what I feel about it), but there are is something that's above all these : the storage problem. Not only that with this phone you start with approx 1GB , but after you install some apps it becomes useless. The apps are growing, consuming more space, the OTHER storage cannot be cleared ( only a factory reset does it ). I really like it, but once I find a buyer, I am jumping in the Nexus 4 - Android boat.
[Windows Phone 8s by HTC] Ikkari:
- What do you think about battery life? "Normal usage"

The Battery life is really the best i had ever on a Smartphone!!! And i had a lot!! 2 days without problems...

My Lumia 920 and My Sony Android can only dream of such a battery life

- How high is the ringtone? "I have GS3 and it is very can't hear it when I am away from it"

It's loud enough for me.. can't compare to the GS3

- Does it lag?

Pretty much no lags at all.. it' Windows Phone...

- How good is Wi-fi reception?

I have no problems with it... I have not used it in Problematic areas for now..

- Is the screen clear during sunlight?

The screen is ok in sunlight.. but no match for the Lumia 920...
[Windows Phone 8s by HTC] Niddu85:
Probably one of the best smartphone ever tried, battery last for 2 days, ringtone clear, very good audio player, lags also for me just when switching between apps, WiFi and data connection very fast and stable, large and clear screen.

The only disadvantage is the internal memory. You can use the external SD card slot only to store music, videos and images.

You can install your apps only on the internal memory, and when you buy the phone you have just more than 1.5GB free. The other problem on WP8 is the "Other" folder which increase its size without any reason until the phone becomes unuseful after few weeks.

Check it out here: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...-storage/979d2948-249b-4303-a475-4183b15af2d6

In my opinion you should choose instead for a phone with at least 8GB (eg. Nokia Lumia 620 which is a very good phone, but the battery will last max 1 day)

Sounds like your bootloader is damaged. Bad news is that we have no APX tools for Nexus 7 right now. You'll need to send it away to be repaired.

[Nexus 4 General] beegbear:
What are your impressions with the update so far? Any noticeable changes in performance? Batter life? post your findings in this thread.

So far the battery life does seem to be better, but maybe it's just placebo. Gotta give it a few more days. It is definitely faster, especially google voice.
[Nexus 4 General] rickykemp:
Chrome seems quicker to load pages to me.
[Nexus 4 General] VertigoM:
No noticeable performance or battery life improvement here.
[Nexus 4 General] dacho:
I think there was some overall improvement in performance and battery life. Nothing major though.
[Nexus 4 General] meangreenie:
what i've noticed so far..

performance much the same to me

screen colours, better

battery life better (can browse internet on wifi without phone getting hot now too)

wifi notifications still delayed or don't come at all when phone is in sleep
[Nexus 4 General] Godaemon:
Too much for nothing None of the known bugs were fixed such as WiFi +Bluetooth crash and WiFi delay in deep sleep...overall this update is like never happened for me.

AW: 4.2.2 Performance & Impressions

Performanse, hmmm hard to say for a snappy phone like this. Cammera app starts much faster and browsing seems improved.

I noticed that the vibrating is stronger when arive calls. The calling delay is solved. Collors much better. Battery lasts like 20% more. Now my phone is to love :D
[Nexus 4 General] El Daddy:
My battery life is significantly better. I suffered with hisc_msm wake lock before. It's nearly nonexistent now. The last two days I had 50% remaining on 17 hours uptime and 2 hour+ screen time. On 4.2.1 it would be screaming at me to charge with the same usage.

The colors look better. Maybe I'm crazy?

I also noticed the vibration pattern is a bit different.

The incoming call delay is gone.
[Nexus 4 General] tr1cky1:
My performance has gone worse since I updated to 4.2.2, my phone gets slow everytime I have many background apps running, I did not have this issue before, when I open the last opened apps thing and slide them all away, the phone is faster again.
[Nexus 4 General] jm89:
I have definitely seen an improvement to battery life, for the past 2 weeks i have owned the phone i would on average get a screen time of around 1 hour 30 minutes at the 50% mark with a up time of around 16 hours, today is the first full day i have had the phone since the update and i am currently at 65% with a screen time of 1 hour 30 minutes and up time of 17 hours.
[Nexus 4 General] fredcorp6:
My phone gets hotter and if anything my battery life is worse. Not impressed.
[Nexus 4 General] maverick96:
It's crazy how some people are seeing marked battery life improvement, while others battery life is worse.
[Nexus 4 General] Fahad M.:
Battery life has improved alot.

Browsing web pages has become a bit faster.

Super smooth.
[Nexus 4 General] samcrocr:
Chrome is definitely quicker than what it was in 4.2.1
[Nexus 4 General] lowrider262:
my battery life is slightly improved and my phone doesn't get super hot anymore like it did before even just browsing the web. definitely a good update imo
[Nexus 4 General] adancau:
I have to say that battery life has improved for me as well. I notice significantly less blue bars in the awake section on battery history details. Not sure about performance, I think it's a tad smoother, but it might be my imagination. Very sure about the battery though. 13h20m and at 59% (screen on for 1h 46m, 15m of voice calls). I'd usually be around the 45% mark at this point.
[Nexus 4 General] nature1:
Had the update for about 3 days .. It is more snappier, vibration is different but can be changed back to normal vibration for SMS, more stronger also. It does lag tiny bit when switching back and fourth on the app drawer but this was like this on 4.2.1. Does not kill me though.
[Nexus 4 General] ChronicLynx:
I had Android OS battery drain before from the wake-locks bug (I don't recall the correct term, someone mentioned it earlier). After the upgrade the wake-locks are gone and battery is significantly better.
[Nexus 4 General] Cor-master:
The phones hardware is a beast, so while android became slower and laggier with 4.2, this phone didn't skip a beat, so I didn't notice a performance gain, and quite frankly dunno what really could be faster than it already was. Battery life is improved, quite a bit actually, I got good battery life during sleep when connected to a wifi network, but it was pretty meh when on hspa +, now it gets great mileage regardless. And it doesn't seem to drain as much when your using it.

Noticed the lockscreen bug is fixed, and as for bluetooth, it worked fine before for me so I didn't notice a difference. On the downside of everything, call volume seems dramatically lower, I don't know what they did but I noticed on other third party apps volume is fine, but using the stock phone app, call volume sucks. As far as I know, there is no way to replace the actual default phone app, not while stock anyway, and even if you could, a third party phone app only exists on oem phones ie sense, touchwiz, motoblur, LGUI, etc. So Google fixes most things but breaks something else... Ugh overall I have to say 4.2 has definitely taken android back to honeycomb, just wish they could fix it for once and for all!
[Nexus 4 General] nbell13:
Battery life in infinitely better for me. Only lose 2-3% overnight vs 10-15% on 4.2.1. As far as performance, seems about the same.
[Nexus 4 General] thebryceee:

[Nexus 4 General] Q.Entity:
I did not have a single issue with the 4.2.2 update. One thing I always do is a factory reset after updating it...

All it takes is a couple minutes to amTitanium Backup, reset and Titanium restore.

To tell you the truth, the factory reset may be a myth but so far it has been flawless for updates.

[Nexus 4 General] Haswell:
one thing I have noticed: battery life is definitely better! I'd say at least about 20 % more time to last than before.
[Nexus 4 General] beegbear:
After some time with the new update I can def. confirm that the battery is better!

See attached screen shots.. Before I could barely make it to the 3 hour mark. Now I'm 50% with the screen on for 1 hour 40 minutes, with 30 minutes of GPS and about 10 minutes of HDR and photosphere photography (which Kill battery).

Not bad, looks like around 4 hours with casual use.

Better battery is something I've definitely noticed. But I've also noticed that the screen locks itself during phone calls and is sometimes impossible to unlock!

Just called someone by accident and couldn't end the call for ages because the screen would flash on when I press the unlock button then instantly turn off again...

[Nexus 4 General] drpepe:
Whatever happened to editing tracks in Play Music?

It's been on the change log since 4.1.1
[Nexus 4 General] mlynch01:
Yes it sounds like it might be a screen protector issue. You install a new protector recently? If your screen protector doesn't have the cutout in the top left for proximity sensor then it can cause the phone to do that.
[Nexus 4 General] Drachen808:
was your finger in the way of the proximity sensor?

I have done that before, it is annoying.
[Nexus 4 General] [hfm]:
The thing that I hate about the latest Music update is that long pressing on an album in the album list no longer has a "play" option. I used that often.
[Nexus 4 General] drpepe:
From the change log:

When we gonna see this option?
[Nexus 4 General] facetubespam:
I haven't seen much difference in my experience so far. Only 2 days in, so things might change after a longer while using it with the new update.

Am I the only one that don't care about the screen color stuff? To me, it looks awesome and not over-saturated.

[Nexus 4 General] klyncher:
Whilst I really like the phone and android in general (having just left the apple ecosystem), I do have a couple of gripes. I find the battery life can be quite poor. I have an intermittent problem with the screen remaining inactive after a call, and I find the media volume to be woefully inadequate.
[Nexus 4 General] lowrider262:
is it just me or is the external speaker volume really low on 4.2.2? like ringtones / notification sounds
[Nexus 4 General] JamesRC:
Might just be me, but after the update I had to re-enable location services for Google apps to get gMaps to work. Gogole Now uses the same service.

Now battery life is back to pre-update levels, I hadn't noticed that Google Now had stopped running (used it so often, clearly!)
[Nexus 4 General] jland22:

[Nexus 4 General] filthykid:
+1

Its low ONLY for Ringtone and Notifications. Otherwise its perfect. Esp. on calls its extremely loud.
[Nexus 4 General] lowrider262:
yea I noticed when watching videos or listening to music its still pretty loud, you're right it seems to just be ringers & notifications
[Nexus 4 General] filthykid:
Yeah. And I am looking for an App that can increase just the notification and ringtone. I have download an App called Audio Control. It seems to have that function but I haven't tried it as yet.
[Nexus 4 General] jutezak:
For the volume there is still teh strange bug that it is soft and will not go louder. Then when pressing volume down it would suddenly be very loud!

I encountered this with the earpiece on 4.2.1, and with the speak in a call on 4.2.2.

I suggest: try lowering the volume and then raising it. If that doesn't work, make the phone ring and lower and then raise the volume.
[Nexus 4 General] Nexonian:
My impressions after a couple of days on 4.2.2:

pro:

- battery life improved

cons:

- wifi is broken when the phone sleeps (push notifications no longer work etc)

- google weather no longer works for some reason

- CSipSimple causes a wakelock on 4.2.2, had to uninstall it

For me, the update rather was a step back to be honest.
