Hello 3andala, there is new update right now ... Should I flash gapss after update, cause wifi not working on my ARC S ??? ... thanks in advance ...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] 3andala:
thats cuz we trying to fix the provided kernel to boot anybody give it test

as known the kernel not boot & cant enter recovery just stuck at LX logo

now tried to use [MENTION=4872819]Vynikal[/MENTION] Kernel (OptKernel) then try to flash provided kernel if works then wipe all

if not works use LX kernel & flash wifi modules from HERE

as next nightly will revert that if not working

Cheers
[Xperia Arc Android Development] 3andala:
now no need to flash WiFi modules just use second post kernel (Latest LX kernel)

Happy flashing :)

Where's the pie controls,I cant find them
[Xperia Arc Android Development] @BoW@:
I've tried this rom , and it's pretty fast , a lot of free ram with many applications , games are fast too , but the deep sleep doesn't work. I've tried it from the 08/03 to 28/08 with 18/07 and 14/08 kernel but nothing. I notice that deep sleep works well without sim card. With sim , no matter if it was 2g or 3g, DS doesn't work. I hope this DS problem will be fixed soon, because i like this rom a lot . Maybe is a question of baseband? I have 85 baseband.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] giannhs_n:
all CM11 roms have wakelock issues for now...if you open bluetooth you wont be able to get normal deep sleep again untill you turn off your phone completely and reboot it, same thing happens when you use gps..and i think sometimes on camcorder too, thats all i have notice from my 10 days of use

Enjoy
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jeetlebuice:
ok,so ive done a fresh install of the latest version(installed as directed in op),flashed banks gapps minimal(24/7) and everything seems to be working great.

after install i went straight to battery in settings and deleted the stats by pressing the trash icon in top right corner.ive bin on internet and installed about 5-6 apps from playstore and just generally browsed the phone for about 1 hour now and so far android system has not gone above 12%.

deep sleep issue is still there but android os battery drain hasnt arrived yet

Hi

wifi not working with LX kernel from 17.8.14

please help

thank you
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jeetlebuice:
What about deep sleep,is it still there
[Xperia Arc Android Development] dropsy1234:
deep sleep still not working

vanir 2.9 + OPTkernel.

everything else is fine
[Xperia Arc Android Development] kelvinhin:
How to make the Status Bar being transparent? The status bar in the default launcher of this rom cannot be transparent in my phone. I used the 28/8 rom and the latest kernel.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] kelvinhin:
I used the most update version of this rom for few days, it is a really smooth rom, but there are two serious bugs that makes me cannot use it continuously.

1. The phone will be auto soft-rebooted after a long deep sleep or during heavy ram usage(browsing a webpage with many pictures)

2. The phone cannot detect the SIM card after the auto soft-reboot. After the manual full reboot, the SIM card can be detected.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] isolove:
camera 720p working?not the fake one(reak 480p)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] 3andala:
yeah the same as LX

You can use kernel on legacy kernel
[Xperia Arc Android Development] trungduc5151:

hello dear programmer, just flashed your ROM but WIFI is not working for me....

can you pls share link for modules? Thank you in advance

[Xperia Arc Android Development] keen36:
gps is not working on my arc s on the vanir build from 2.10. with the kernel bandala posted above ( http://d-h.st/Ye4 ). i didn't delete /data though, can anyone confirm this bug?

when i open maps, the gps icon shows, but doesn't work. "gps status and toolbox" app tells me that there is "no gps device present"

you probably used the included kernel? try another kernel, for example legacyxperia

UPDATE

the next version from 6.10. fixed the gps bug.

with the latest version 10.10. i cannot get a signal, it doesn't even ask for my PIN.

I am now at 6.10., looking good so far

UPDATE #2

have tested the build from 6.10.14 a little now, everything is working flawlessly. wonderful additions!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Trichelieu:
Hey,

I'm willing to update my version of this ROM so I was thinking i'd take the build you tested and approved. So it's the 6.10.14 Vanir nightly with the kernel provided by 3andala a few posts above? (Sorry, I got a bit lost with all your updates)

Also, any gapps advice? Banks topic linked in OP is down, I'm going for vanir light.

Thanks in advance :).
[Xperia Arc Android Development] keen36:
yes, vanir nightly from 20141006 with the kernel posted above. the kernel has upload date 20140915, it's probably the legacyxperia kernel from 20140906. i used pa gapps , the micro version. maybe give those a try, they are maintained well.

i have been using the nightly for over two weeks now, no problems at all. i have used the dialer, gps, data and wifi daily, as far as i can tell they are working perfectly. the only thing i haven't tested much is the camera/video, a quick test shows that they are working nicely, too (video recording only works with 480p).

i really want to try the new nightlys though, i just do not have the time at the moment. happy flashing!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Trichelieu:
Hey thx mate!

So I tried and everything looks fine. I still can't send MMS but I never could with this ROM. (It might be my operator though)

I see the Vanir updater now works and there is advanced support for theming. That's cool.

Thanks again keen, and thanks 3andala for the good work. Can't wait for lollipop :D.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] d3vi13:
i have com.android.systemui error on 4.4.4.102714 when i'm in tiles and layout. i did install g apps mini or without it it's still the same and i have lx 20140906 kernel. any idea what i did wrong?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] keen36:
you could ask in the vanir support thread

i haven't tested that nightly but a user in the support thread reports no problems with that build, maybe try a newer kernel? also, vanir has released the next nightly. i have installed it last night and just checked the "tiles and layout" menu, it seems to be working well.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ltGuillaume:
Has the digitizer/touchscreen been undervolted for the Arc S in this kernel? Ever since converting to this rom (from Jelly Bean, clean flash, posted kernel first, then rom, followed instructions to the letter), the lower part (~3-4mm) and the right side (1-2mm) have become unresponsive. Since I see no related kernel updates since, I'm currently on the Oct. 27 build.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Trichelieu:
Go to settings/Interface: Turn navigation bar on then turn it off. There you go. At each boot.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ltGuillaume:
Thanks! Could explain the lower part of the screen, but how would it explain the right side of the screen being unresponsive? For example, the checks at the right side in the Mount2SD settings are almost impossible to alter. I'm 100% sure that wasn't the case in other roms.

Edit: However, I just got word that the problem is completely gone at the bottom of the screen, so thanks again! :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] alexdonwarez:
ur latest build is not booting, stuck at boot logo..
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Trichelieu:
You're welcome.

I don't have that right side issue though or maybe I just haven't encountered the problem yet.

I don't understand which checks you're talking about. The ones that allow you to move an app to the SD card? (Because I think those can't be checked, you have to click on the app and then click on a button that says "move to sd")
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ltGuillaume:
No I meant the settings to regulate what should be moved to sd-ext in MOUNT2SD (e.g. app apk's, Dalvik cache, data). Those checkmarks are on the right of the screen and I had serious problems getting them checked/unchecked.

Hi lats a need unlock boatloder
[Xperia Arc Android Development] QuGhZx:
Great ROM but can I ask which recovery does it require to flash the zip file I mean a lot of CWM & TWRP recoveries on deferent phones do not support flashing a KitKat ROM! I'm working on the arc s (LT18i - ICS - 4.1.A.0.562), and I was wondering if any of you guys could share a link to the proper recovery and include some installation instructions if possible.

thanks
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Attitude.SSJ:
Just flash the kernel included in zip... That contains recovery using which you can flash the rom..
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Trichelieu:
Thank you kind sir.

Did anybody here manage to get "halo" (the multitasking tool) to work? It's activated for me but I can't use it. (Or don't know how to may be ^^)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Trichelieu:
Sometimes my touchscreen is not responding, any ideas why? I don't know how to make it go back to life. It just does somehow, sometimes, when i reboot.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] 3andala:
strange bug don't know about it

i'm using this rom for daily use no any bug for me

will update it if vanir Team make changes maybe

Any more feedback ?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] QuGhZx:
Ok by zip you mean (vanir_anzu_4.4.2.012814.zip), so you want me to flash boot.img by fastboot command or something like that?? can you please be more precise, I'm some kind of a beginner when it comes to Sony :laugh:, my main device is a P880 :p
[Xperia Arc Android Development] gabimx:
stats untile now abute the ROM:

bad stuff

:

1.very laggy and slow, it feels "havy".

2.the kernel provided inside the ZIP is working, but i guss that is the reason for the phone being so slow.

3.PLEASE, provide a link to some gapps that are tuned for this rom.

4.i have reboots. frequently.(abute 5 times today).

5.the touchscreen is not responding so well. needs fixing.

and for the good stuff:

1.it looks great.

2.the lokescreen options and notification are great!! thanks for this.(too bad the phone is slow).

3.general options in this ROM are very good.

So, i think that if you will fix and make the kernel better, things will be smother.Will report back after using diffrent kernel.

Hope to see this rom much faster then what it is right now.

Thanks for your hard work,

gabimx.

[MENTION=4314225]gabimx[/MENTION] try flashing vatsal's kernel, i don't have any laggs or slow phone.

About anything else, I have gravitybox installed for navbar and sometimes it dissapears and an arrow appears for sort of like dragging the "navbar" up but it doesnt work, I have to lock the screen and unlock it for navbar to work again. Don't know if its a rom bug, just telling what I noticed.

And couple of times brightness acted like its on automatic even when it was on manual and I had to brighten it up after unlocking the screen. Otherwise no random reboots, no major bugs, no lagging, email app also working. :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] smokerman:
good report..:good: i will test this rom now with cm11 darkraven latest kernel as i feel is super good and the best for cm11 roms..(i didnt try vatsalv3 cm11,sorry)..i will say something later.;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] troubled_android:
[MENTION=5539651]QuGhZx[/MENTION] Yup, just extract the zip file you mentioned to get the boot.img, put rom (zip file) + gapps on sd card, then flash the boot.img via fastboot command with flashtool program, then go to recovery, do full wipes, flash rom (and gapps) and then boot the phone. :)

No idea maybe just ignore it

OP Edited please check it guys
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Trichelieu:
You're sure about those GAPPS? On the topic of Vastal's kernel it says to flash slim gapps, not regular ones :s.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Attitude.SSJ:
Well that's coz Vatsals kernel uses a custom partition where more space is allotted to /data... But gapps needs /system space... So if you are using Vatsals kernel it's better to flash slim gapps...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Trichelieu:
Yes, exactly. 3andala updated the first post and it now advises to download Vatsals kernel. So my question was really: has someone tried it?

But thanks anyway :).
[Xperia Arc Android Development] smokerman:
ignore it..the rom is fine..maybe hosts file is tweaked for no ads and it flashes a false positive..i ve installed this yesterday and no problem at all.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] 3andala:
i have tried it its perfect

just must wipe all & format system

then flash rom

To the Dev. [MENTION=3849183]3andala[/MENTION]

hi, as i said a few pages back, tho ROM needs a bit more work on a few things.

firstly i have to say, the ROM is absalutly great in all features, very nice.

but please work on it that it will be smother, provide a more stable Kernel that will run this awosme ROM.

the ROM right now feels hevy, and its a shame for this great rom.

if you correct this issues, i can allready see this rom being the most downloaded in the Arc forum.

Thanks a loot for your time and effort.

gabimx.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] Trichelieu:
Hell yeah, please fix the stock browser and this ROM will be almost perfect.

(Also, I experience a really heavy battery drain in performance mode, even if I don't use my phone)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ccelebiler:
My first impressions:

- Google Maps seems to be working now (though I didn't do a thorough test)

- I had battery drain due to the WiFi (even when disabled), the issue seems to be resolved.

- Responsiveness has slightly improved.

Keep up the good work!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] 3andala:
use Chrome or any web browser from playstore or just add this to system/app and give permission http://d-h.st/2vk sure will be fixed in next release

about battery life i think its great i got more than 1d 11h 40% medium usage :) (check screenshots)

after more days will be more friendly

Cheers
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ela703:
I too had an awful battery time. But I found that it started after I installed FB Messenger! Now that I have removed the messenger and viola.. battery backup is just superb! :) Please note, that FB Messenger never showed up in Battery Status!

So, please do look for such apps that drains the battery..
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Trichelieu:
Yeah I know about the alternative browser, I use Chrome. (I'll try your linked one) But the thing is, some other apps are based on stock browser as they suffer from the same huge laguiness. For example, the email app is laggy as hell. Some web content viewing apps too. (I'm pretty sure the problem goes further than the stock browser though because those apps work even if the stock browser is removed but they're still laggy. Plus Maxthon suffers from the same issue so, it's deeper in my opinion.) Do you think these apps will be fixed too next release?

Regarding the battery, I'm not saying it's not good. It really is, especially in eco mode. It's just the other day I lost 50% of my battery in 7 hours... I noticed I was in performance mode and nothing else activated (like no 3g, no wifi). So I thought (a bit quickly probably) that it was due to this mode.

Anyway, it's an awesome ROM you made. Thank you for that :).

Ok thanks, I will look into it. If you read what I wrote above, I don't think it's coming from an app but, you never know :). (And FB is crap, I use Fast for Facebook which is, let's say a bit less crapy)

EDIT: I pushed your apk to my system/app. And it's not fixed for me. Still laggy as hell. Thanks for trying though ^^.
