[Xperia Arc Android Development] DomusX10:
before I flash this ROM, and switch from SJB v6 to it, I want to know:

- how is camera and video?

- GPS works ok?

- Games performance?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] nikhil381:
Camera does. Not work. Otherwise its smooth
[Xperia Arc Android Development] DomusX10:
with "does not work" do you mean what? 720p recording not work? 8mp camera not work? Please, be more specific...thanks for your feedback.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] nikhil381:
It takes the photo but its all greenish
[Xperia Arc Android Development] DomusX10:
noooo ... what a pity ...SJB v6 it's much better on this ...thank you very much (for now I've reached my 8 limit "thanks"...I'll put it as soon as it unlock) ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] nikhil381:
The photo. Comes fine just the preview shows green tint
[Xperia Arc Android Development] mathewgx:
How can we odex apps we install after flashing the ROM ?

Did you use an apk or something like arcatarc's flashable zip ?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] DomusX10:
The preview during shot or the preview in camera app (little preview in an angle?) and the video quality? Lags? Sound/Video it's sincro? ...sorry if I am insistent, but I use my Arc S to take photos and videos...

- Have this ROM battery drain bluetooth releated bug? (too battery drain when bluetooth headset or audio active)?

- For who has tryed this ROM frow a couple of days...can you tell me how it goes? Performance, Wifi/3g, battery drain...thanks in advance.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] k66473:
I am still facing the not show apps moved to SD card after restarting the phone.

Apart of those, this rom works very well

Yes my friend u must choose the correct firmware..!

The best firmware in order to increase the internal memory from 380mb to 420mb is the LT18i_4.1.B.0.587_(1254-2716).zip

You can download it from here=> http://d-h.st/uCW

any idea?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] gerardojerry:
Did you flashed the kernel inside the zip?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] mousis:
No, just I flashed direct from th wcm.

Maybe its need to flash it with fastboot command and after I will use the wcm, right?

Yes it should work, but not guaranteed. Made a backup first and tell us the results! ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] themike10452:
No guys this is why it will not work:

1- This ROM is odexed and the package is made based on a deodexed rom, so ull face a bootloop after flashing.

2- The zip contains a modded SystemUI which will overwrite the current SystemUI which harsh worked very hard to modify and make it look like xperia z.

conclusion: if u want this mod so bad you should use LX CM10.1 0809 release.

---------- Post added at 01:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:37 PM ----------

no my friend, I'm affraid it won't because harsh wants to keep his ROM pure AOSP. You can use mike/shufuking CM10.1 with Sony UXP theme from playstore and you'll get the sony feel in your phone, but the performance of this rom is unreachable elsewhere. CM10.1 is not bad after all, now with the capability of oc up to 1.8 GHz :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] TheHaso:
Ah oki, i already using SJB 6. Its great, but i also want to upgrade to 4.2, but without the interface/system settings i miss a lot of features
[Xperia Arc Android Development] DomusX10:
Even I think so, idem for me....I love SJB v6...goes very well and fast (my Arc S was reborned) but if I want a 4.2.2 ROM with same performances? Is this the right candidate?

Because I really think to upgrate to it from my SJB v6...in your opinion do you agree? The battery life it's good than the SJBv6? Camera quality??
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ajebulon:
you should try besttt's latest slim build if you want a JB4.2 ROM. I think it's the best 4.2 ROM for now. see his sig for download link
[Xperia Arc Android Development] themike10452:
If you want my personal opinion:

[I][B][U][COLOR="Red"]Pros:[/COLOR][/U][/B][/I]

- This ROM is super smooth! I mean it, you'll notice it right after you unlock the screen.
- It looks fairly good.

[COLOR="red"][B][I][U]Cons:[/U][/I][/B][/COLOR]

- Has 0 customization.
- Navigation Bar can't be used on this ROM [B](OSB)[/B] (It ruins the home launcher anyway)
- I just don't feel comfortable with it at all (due to the lack of customization)

[B][I][U][COLOR="red"]Additional thoughts:[/COLOR][/U][/I][/B]

- Camera is good/usable, it's not awful, sometimes takes great shots with rich colors and sometimes it's full of noise (like all CM10.1 ROMs).
- Low-memory killer is not as fantastic as on 2.6 kernels used for CM10
- WiFi interruptions really suck, CM10 is much better.
- Boot time is ridiculous, kernel logo lasts for minutes
- Battery life depends on your usage, I can't describe the battery life as great or as awful, I'll just say it's good, getting around 8 hours a day with 3 hours of screen on time. (Using mike's CM10.1)

Finally, it is worth testing after all, but make a full nandroid/TB/SMS/Contacts backup before doing so.

If you want to enjoy the full capability of android 4.2.2/CM10.1 I think you should use mikeioannina/shufuking's CM10.1 build, I'm loving it and living with it, despite wifi drives me crazy sometimes :P

Many thanks to harsh586 for his seamless efforts.

Cheers.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] DomusX10:
Thanks for your feedback and opinion. I really appreciate.

Now, I'm fine on 4.1.2 even battery drain for me it's amazing. So, I think that I'll wait before upgrade to 4.2.2...I understand your opinions and I agree with you..but I need a stable ROM, Arc S it's my "only" phone, daily used and my "life companion"..I need a stable and usable ROM, with no lags and good response, like SJBv6...I'm excited about all the work that these people are doing to make even the 4.2.2 stable and practical on Arc...then, I'll wait...I need camera and wifi works good...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] themike10452:
it's worth giving it a shot, my arc s is my only daily driver, and I'm using cm10.1 fine, I like it better than cm10, no problems except some wifi going mad sometimes.

It is stable and ready for everyday use. Try mikeioannina/shufuking CM10.1 Stable Build 08092013

Where can I get Sony email app for this Rom?

Also, I have enabled OSB but they are big for me (I think it should be around 50px). I searched a bit and came up with decompiling framework-res to change its size. Isn't there any better way (build.prop way, for example) to change the size?

Who said "Sent from my Xperia Arc S using tapatalk 2"?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] themike10452:
standard size is 48 dpi

and no my friend you'lll have to decompile/edit/compile framework-res.apk to make them smaller. But X ROM 4.5 is odexed so I'm afraid it won't work, you'll face a boot loop :/

however you can try using my tool, it will generate 2 zips, install and restore zips so you can revert the changes easily.

Performance is awesome!!

Odexed, no customization and Xperia Home sdcard bug is some minor things which I'm not pleased :(
[Xperia Arc Android Development] DomusX10:

where'd you find that there is already a stable release of CM10.1 for Arc?

the last stable was CM9.1 as i saw from the official site.

http://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=anzu&type=stable
[Xperia Arc Android Development] DomusX10:
I have read that it's out a "stable" Release candidate cm10.1 rom...and then, I ask if there is the possibility even for Arc S.

Searching in google Cm10.1 release candidate (RC2)...when the version is RC2 the step for "final" or "really stable" it's short..I mean in terms of bug fixed and general system stability...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] themike10452:
I'm glad you like it. And here's a thanks for brightening my day

---------- Post added at 12:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:28 PM ----------

The stable cm10.1 is built by LegacyXperia, and they call it stable because it doesn't have reboots or major bugs. This ROM is based on other sources, AOSP by [MENTION=5184440]pcfighter[/MENTION] and I think it uses a bit different version of nAa+ 3.4 kernel. So the improvements made by LX team on ROM/Kernel level are not included here. Therefore the answer to your question will have to be NO. But the ROM is stable already and faster than LX CM10.1 anyway but it's way less customizable, in fact it's not customizable at all.

cheers.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] DomusX10:
Thank you very much for clear my ideas!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] johnism89:
Do I need to have the latest version of official ICS before installing this rom ?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] themike10452:
It's recommended if you come from GB, if not then it's not necessary so don't waste your time, just flash the kernel and perform a full wipe (or just a system wipe if you want to keep your user apps BUT YOU MIGHT FACE A BOOTLOOP) and flash the ROM.

sd-ext

Hi, very nice ROM, sorry i but i did a search, and as i am more of a entry level power user than a dev, i might have missed the answer to my question somewhere, but if someone could tell me:

Is there anyway to mount / use the sd-ext partition on this ROM?? As the phone space is very limited, and the ROM does not seem to support S2E.

Thank-you in advance.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] DeathStroke:
Haha.. One and only one.. Actually i try everything.. free from college nowadays.. :D

<sent from Batcave>
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jtdc:
been running this ROM for a few hours, and like SJB6 it is smooth. but this one seems to be more stable even when there's several apps that were executed. also the apps launch normally on consistent times, btw any chance to port/use an Xperia jellybean lockscreen so it'd consistent with the launcher?

i get the feeling that this one is smooth and acceptable as daily driver.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] DomusX10:
how works camera app? taken pictures quality? How much RAM available after boot?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jtdc:
i haven't checked exact amount but its a lot of free ram mainly because this rom isn't carrying any bloat. the camera works just fine, the interface was from Android 4.3 camera. after shot, the thumbnail is green but it doesn't matter much because the captured pic is normal.

that don't affect me much i because I use 3rd party camera app (ProCapture) and that works normally. I suppose the camera drivers in this ROM are good and compatible. I had bad camera experiences in 4.1.2 CM10 based roms, so I can say what comes with this ROM is better.

Few findings after letting it sit overnight:

1. While I sleep last night, there was an excessive unexplainable battery drain of 3% every 10 minutes (i use battery monitor), the culprit is Android System per battery usage. i will investigate this thorougly using betterbatterystats and perhaps can find what's causing it. Unit died and was off when I discovered at morning (it didn't alarm).

Update for daytime observation : As I am not using WIFI during the day (only few spurts of GPRS), I didn't see this excessive drain.

I will continue to observe as for nights at home I use WIFI.

2. Upon restart/boot, application which reside on sdcard disappeared on homescreen and launcher. I think this is a known bug of this ROM, as mentioned on previous posts this can be fixed by installing other launcher. too bad i really like the honami launcher it came with. Good thing I only have one app on sdcard, and its non-critical as its just a game.

Harsh, Hi,

Thanks for the two most stable JB ROMs for xperia Arc. I am a user of Super Jelly bean since it's release and currently on SJB 7. I, and most of the SJB 7 series users want to move to SJB X series. The main issue for most of us is that SJB X is heavily themed and is quite rigid in terms of interface tweaking when compared to SJB 7. Even common features like themes and status bar tweaks are missing. I understand that your goal for SJB X was to provide a Xperia 2012/2013 experience in terms of interface, this is keeping many fans of super jelly bean ROMs from upgrading to SJB 4.2.2. Is it possible for you to make a patch/ROM for those of us who prefer features over customization? This is a humble request, you can choose to ignore it. Thanks for your effort and support.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] DomusX10:
I don't understand if harsh working on a new version of this ROM.

If the answer is "yes" I propose:

1) Make more light this ROM (like SJB v7.1) leave the sony theme, but walkman and other sony stuff that can be installed separately put in "addons" section, not directly in ROM...sony apps are beautiful but heavy...Then, I prefer install separately the ones that I like.

2) Put in this ROM KitKat camera app, that don't have green preview problem and goes well in SJB v7.1, then I think goes well here. Use that like default.

3) Provide good management of RAM and battery drain.

4) If it's possible, a framework with status bar trasparent like 4.4 or indicate us a mod that works with it.

Pratically I think that if you made this ROM an "evolution" of SJB v7.1, in terms of 4.2.2, but customizable and more lighten (as mb that ROM occupied), you reached a goal.

I'll be the first to make the move to it. Having SJB with Android 4.2.2? Wonderful. Think about it. :fingers-crossed:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] shoeseat:
If you want transparent status bar and other mods then you can try xposed mod(if you haven't tried yet). install gravity box or xblast tools modules for transparent status bar.

Just that do not expect great battery life as 3.4 kernel isn't the best for battery. The rom is also my daily driver and i can get a days usage..I will not lie to any of you to brag about my rom..
