Apart from this the ROM is really good, beautiful, fast, no lags so far.....ill wait for the next update to install it, i cant use daily a roma that has all those things not working, especially playstore and wifi.

Keep up the good work.

PS. check out 4.3 beanstalk Roma for Arc....it has lots of system apps, tweaks and goodies that could interest you

Why do you have ics kernel for gb rom?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Dr.SAM88:
Thanks....

I read the installation instructions, says it's better to first flash ANY stock rom, wipe data and the flash rom.

By 'any' does he mean only GB stock firmware? or does ICS firmware work too?

I'll try with a GB Kernel....i'm planning to use lupusGB, do you reccomend a better GB kernel?

---------- Post added at 01:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:53 AM ----------

Reflashed with stock GB fw and lupusGBv2.....just as instructed.

I still cannot use play store.....after login its stuck on loading....

Anybody else experiencing this?

Should I install Gapps for GB or what?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] pren22:
Try cleaning google play services data and google play data and then try to log in again...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Dr.SAM88:
I think it's a simcard problem, i switched company changing simcard but keeping the same number.... it does so also on other roms i realized.

I have to go onto my google account and reverify my number and then wipe google play data every time to make it work.

Anyway Rom goes fine now with lupusGBv2.......unluckily the R1 version with uksm service has a dead link, can anybody upload please?

To get latest firmware upgrades/tweaks, i've flashed latest ICS firmware for ARC, wiped everything, installed lupusGBv2 kernel and then flashed all the zip files wiping cache each time.

Works very well!!!

Bu the way would it be a good idea to flash latest Adreno drivers for ARC? I think they are JB drivers but they worked really well on some ultimate HD roms.

Im gonna backup system and try it out and let you know.

Please upload lupusGBv2_R1 anybody.....thanks

Xperia Pro keyboard issue

Hi guys,

I'm user of Xperia Pro and would like to know if you are facing the same issue like me:

After few months I decided to try this amazing ROM again, since Vokal added support for MK16i device. Unfortunatelly it doesn't work as it should.

Backlight of the keyboard is ok, but when I start to type something, after few letters the app freeze. In case of Google Play I even cannot type anything (the app freeze immediatelly after pressing any button on HW keyboard). And the main problem is that SW keyboard is not appearing (not in landscape nor portrait mode). So I cannot input any text...

...anyway I found a solution - if I disable in "Settings - Input and Language" Keyboard "Gin2", then when I use HW keyboard the app doesn't freeze. But still I cannot use Globe and SYM button and also the SW keyboard still does not appear.

...also when I go to "Settings -> Language and Inpu -> Text Input Settings -> My words" it closes the app (process com.sonyericsson.textinput.uxp has been terminated)

Do you have any suggestion? Should I check something?

I did a fresh install of this ROM (and for sure before I installed this rom I have flashed official "MK16i_4.0.2.A.0.62__1251-0386" GB ROM).

For diag info:

Bootloader: Unlocked

Kernel: LuPuS_iyokan_GingerBreadv2-full.img

Kernel Modules: signed-WIFI-LuPuS_iyokan_GingerBreadv2-full

Previously flashed ROM: MK16i_4.0.2.A.0.62__1251-0386

Current ROM: Gin2JellyBean_v2.5.2_Pro.zip over that I immediatelly installed Gin2Kitkat_OTA_Update_v3.0.0.zip

Installed AddOns: PowerSaveModule, ServiceMenu, SimToolKit, Widgets

I really appreciate your help
[Xperia Arc Android Development] :
Well mine works fine try wiping your phone before installing the rom and try first booting it on 2.5.2 first then rebooting and installing 3.0 and dont install any other zips until you finish because maybe there is a problem with one of them
[Xperia Arc Android Development] matarratos:
this and a full rom?

or is an update

Gin2KitKat v3.0.0
[Xperia Arc Android Development] :
Its a ota update to gin2jellybean 2.5.2
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Dr.SAM88:
HEHEHE! Found the easteregg!!! tap repeatedly on rom version.

§

BTW after my last installation the ROM is amazing!! no bugs found so far and smooth as hell!! Only had a problem with root that i fixed forcing root through Flashtool and updating busybox and superuser.

My reccomended installation procedure for ARC/S:

Flash latest ICS ftf firmware (.587) with flashtool clearing all old data.

Flash LupusGBv2 R1 version with uksm service (Link: http://d-h.st/OWo)

Enter recovery and do a factory reset + clear cache and dalvik.

Now flash gin2jellybean 2.5.

Wipe cache.

Flash gin2kitkat 3.0.

Wipe cache.

Flash other zips, wiping cache each time.

Boot once, put your settings and apps, check if root is ok, if not use latest Flashtool to force root.

Use Terminal and type:

su

Lupus

and activate uksm and all tweaks.

Use Seeder or any other way to raise entropy to the max.

Reboot, enjoy! Amazing battery life and smoothness even at high frequencies. I managed to get through the whole day with 1.4ghz and medium use, impressive!!!

Many thanks to the Author! LOVE IT!

Why would anyone install ICS rom for installing GB ROM?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] kelvinhin:

[Xperia Arc Android Development] Marchinho6:
Try to reinstall rom with all wipe needed (system,data,cache,dalvik etc...). And try lupus kernel. For me is very good.

Send by my ass :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Dr.SAM88:
The ROM is not ICS. System, data, system and others have been wiped so no trace of ICS OS, it's just for the firmware hardware tweaks.

A system isn't made only of OS and kernel, but also of other hardware related code.

Trust me, it works like a charm no bugs apart for that one issue with root. try it out and see...

Use SuperSu (flashed from recovery) instead of Superuser with that excellent ROM.

Whet will prevent most of superuser rights access problems.

I'm still running 2.4.0 with my xperia pro, patched to make the keyboard work with autocorrect.

In 3.0.0 the keyboard works right away? or do i have to patch the framework? (or there is no patch yet).

Also, i found a bug in 2.4.0: i have the pattern lock activated. If i use the slider to disable the locking of the phone, the only way to make the phone "lockable" is to restart it. Has it been solved or is it still a known bug?

Thanks.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ltcdata:
I took the plunge. Upgraded from 2.4.0. I have the same keyboard problem as you :(

---------- Post added at 06:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:32 PM ----------

More testing:

Restored the 2.5.2 backup. Keyboard and everything works flawlessly.

Installed OTA 3.0.0. Again, keyboard does not work, and FC's programas that tries to use it.

Clean install --> installed 2.5.2, boot, clean dalvik/cache, --> install 3.0.0: keyb does not work.

Clean install --> installed 2.5.2, boot, --> install 3.0.0: keyb does not work.

So i restored my 2.5.2 backu with all my data and apps where everything works fast and ok. I will wait for a revision, there must be something in 3.0.0 that has a problem, because even with a clean install it crashes on my pro :(
[Xperia Arc Android Development] matarratos:
what is the use?

apk installer
[Xperia Arc Android Development] per4rator:
There is no any file explorer in ROM (out of the box, i mean).

So, to install any additional apps You need to use "apk installer", or activate google account to get apps from the market.

Although I face some issues

1. Superuser not working

2. No radio app

3. It shows GB 2.3.4!!!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] vokal1992:
1. it is not a rom problem, latest superuser has that bug, sometimes works, sometimes don't

2. I included everything I could find related with radio, maybe I missed something, can someone provide the list of apks?

3. sorry, I used the build.prop from .62 firmware, will fix in next release.

After one-day of extensive and heavy use I would like to say this is the most fluid Rom I have ever used, super fast and very responsive. And I have tried actually almost each and every Rom here in our forum . Also no force close or reboots until now. About the superuser issue I just connected my arc with USB debugging checked to flashtool and it automatically fixed the issue. Just the radio issue and it is perfection.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] lsalamun:
@OP

Please put original GB semc camera because I really like my Arc S because of the photography and the CM like camera that is included offers max 5MP resolution with no advanced features that i like, also video shooting has no stabilizer etc.

The rome is epic smooth with many great features, but I'm a heavy photographer and I love video because of my traveling and sports so please post me, or share here some fix.

(I know that I'm spamming and you think "Don't tell me what to do", but I'm asure that I'm not the only one.)

Thanks in forward and keep up!:good:

Edit: Downloaded 2.2.1
[Xperia Arc Android Development] pabarker:
I have clicked on both the links to the file servers to download this ROM but I only see a version 2.2.0 not the 2.2.1. Also does the one zip work for all phones as usually you have to flash a seperate file for each specific phone after the main ROM.

Edit: I found the individual 2.2.1 zips on the media fire file server. Must have clicked on the xda link both times before.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] pabarker:
Really like this ROM. Its seems very smooth and looks great. For me the only things missing are the flashlight toggle and the ability to change the number of home screens. Both of these are minor issues but would be nice in the next version.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] redhotiron2004:
Yes! Actually I have flashed a pre-release version of 2.5.2. Which had the performance improvements without the toggles removed.

After that I did tried to flash the official 2.5.2 but it hanged so I just restored my previews 2.5.2 version.

Though, 2.5.1 is the only version which had all the toggles. But, you would be missing huge improvements if you won't install 2.5.2.

I am hoping that in the next version we could get all toggles back. Then I would upgrade permanently.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] abnoob:
still sticking to 2.5.1

about the huge improvements you mentioned, is that noticeable?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] redhotiron2004:
For me yes!

The biggest change I noticed was the smoothness in UI of launcher and apps like tapatalk etc. and much better multitasking which allowed me to play games back to back without slowing down or needing to restart the mobile again.

I really what to upgrade to 3.0 though. I really want the toggles back.:confused:

Hi everyone,

What is this ROM exactly ? I mean is it based on Jelly Bean/KitKat or is it a disguised Gingerbead ?

Thank you
[Xperia Arc Android Development] hertell:
It's Gingerbread on steroids :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] skype007:
It's Gingerbread with Jelly Bean/KitKat advantages ?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Marchinho6:
No...it's a rom based on android gingerbread (2.3.7). Only the graphics are jelly bean or kitkat.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] skype007:
So how's the Rom great ? because it's not useful i think if it only have the graphics of jelly bean/kitkat:confused:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] redhotiron2004:
It's the best Rom for playing games, multitasking, with all the latest features, apps and UI improvements from JB. The music player is the latest that you get in ICS AND JB. The camera and quick notification toggle are fast And better than stock. It is fully customizable with themes and icons. All in all its amazing and far better than ICS for our devices with 512mb ram.

Try it and you won't use anything else.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] skype007:
What is AnTuTu score ?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] n3n00:
Antutu is not legit. Atleast when comparing GB and ICS. Idk how is JB running on ArcS.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] redhotiron2004:
Taken just now. Everything on stock.

Xperia pro on stock speed 1ghz. Antutu score of about 4400-4700. I have got even more than 4700 Through various tweaks.

Although, I got a bit more with ICS but the performance was much worse and multitasking was negligible on that.

And beleive me. These synthetic benchmarks just provide an idea about the raw performance. But, don't show anything about the smoothness and multitasking capability of the device. On a side note, I got 14fps on nenamark2 with GB and almost 31 with ICS. But, surprisingly enough the games work much better and smoother with this GB Rom that too without any crashes.

So, don't take these results as the final wording. ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] skype007:
Well I'm on stock GB (2.3.4) Should I upgrade to official 4.0.4 ? (Then is it still smooth and the battery is still good ?)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] tangosierra_:
^ noooo... It is a lot worse ...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] pren22:
Look,GB on Xperia Arc and any 2001 xperia runs perfect no lag,no bugs no battery drains.If you don't play games and don't use your xperia for surfing(stream videos...) than you can use ICS.ICS is good only for calls and sms nothing else,i hate it.But if you are not that much in games but like multitasking and like to be up to date then you can use jelly bean roms they are faster and better than ICS but the downside is they dont have HDMI and camera isn't the best.

I tried using every JB custom ROM i could find and i wasn't happy with nether of them i always came back to this ROM.So if you like fast,stable,working HDMI,perfect working camera,and grate mutitasking and games but don't like GB look this is the ROM for you.The best ROM i ever used.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Furosemid:
I totally agree, in my opinion the only ICS ROM I'd like to work with is for more than 2 days is http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2532668.
