Here's a question for u..u want to upgrade officially or custom?if officially..u need to wait until this end of March/early April for the official ICS update..
And for custom upgrade..u can take a look at this section-->> Xperia Arc/Arc S Android Development

I'd advise you to wait till Sony releases it all the ics roms are incomplete with missing let features. WiFi on some, camera, data on some, and more.
Probably won't see a complete romtill Sony releases ics on their phones.
I know how you feel, I can't wait for ics on my arc

You could use DooMLoRD's ICS alpha, don't see any bug there and you have on screen buttons.

I just unlocked the bootloader on my arc and was wondering what roms people recommend. Thanks everybody

I use Cyanogenmod 9 and i really like it. If you want to run ics on your Arc i would recommend cm9 or arconium.

Im just lookin for a solid rom for everyday use would prefer ics

I don't recommend ICS roms yet. Just wait for Sony to release the final code, and find yourself a good ICS rom. For now, I'd say Arconium 8 or DiMiui/MIUI-G. They're all based on Gingerbread.
Awesome thanks for the tip. Also once unlocked with omnius is it ready to flash? Or do i still have to unlock with sony site?

Since the omnius thread says that they unlock bootloaders then i suppose that you don't need to do the steps with the sony site. Just install DoomKernel 19 + Arconium 8.1 and you are good to go (all the SE specific features working, from xloud to hdmi).
Ahh you were too late. Omnius was free until yesterday.

Did you even read what's written on that site?
It's a guide on how to flash the LT18i ICS update onto a LT15i

Yes I read it did you? What does it say at the start Sony has released lt15i Rom . I couldn't check it though because site hosting ftf is down. Wasn't sure if they had got it right thats why asking question.
Sent from my LT15i using XDA
Of course I read it and it says:
"Installing the ICS firmware
Download the official ICS firmware (LT18_4.1.A.0.562_NCB.ftf, md5sum: c1ae2eef1677a7aa72db7430e516ea4c) file for the Xperia Arc from here and save it to our PC."
--> Arc S firmware

yes just checked the news feed from stock news and weather feed widget on arc where I got article from and it has changed from the url I put in first post to another about arc s. But whatever still think article was a bit misleading and not very well worded from start.
Sent from my LT15i using XDA
In Sony Blog was said "Following on, Xperia arc, Xperia PLAY, Xperia neo, Xperia mini, Xperia mini pro, Xperia pro, Xperia active and Sony Ericsson Live with Walkman will receive their scoop starting from the end of May/early June.*"
Source: http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/36530
So we have to wait about a month to official ICS update for our LT15i devices
How is the ICS in Arc s, is it better than GB? Is there any bug?
Is it easy to root for Locked BL?

Good news
Back in June, we reported of a new Sony Xperia S (LT26i) firmware update that was rumoured to arrive in early July. Well obviously that did not come to pass, but apparently a new update is still on the agenda for Xperia S/SL owners. Sony pretty much confirmed as much on the official support forums, saying that it will have build version number 6.2.B.1.XX. There’s no ETA for the update, but we’ll keep our eyes peeled.

So,over all of the S,SL,Acro S,and ion...only S will get a fixed update?Screw that,Sony didn't say it is only for Xperia S :s

Don't thank me. It's because of amount of death threats I sent to their dev department and sophisticated insults to their support policy I posted on their facebook page.
good to read these news.. lets see if they will give us a good update

What about Acro S? D:
Isn't Sony going to release an update for Acro S and ION also?
Wow! Thats a good news! I guess the 1080p video rec and volume up bug will be fixed in this 6.2.b.1.xx update

And instead of volume up not working that will switch to volume down

Sure they will...most of Xperia S users only think that Sony will only fix the problems in their phone (Xperia S) only because they (Sony) did reply and respond inside SXS forum...talk about typical Xperia S user that think of their own importance and forget about the others (Xperia SL,Acro S and ion)...
Sorry if my message is kind of a little rage message...I'm quite mad because some SXS user only think about only their phone's problem will be fixed
Sent from my SK17i using xda premium
We'll see
This update will well be the last update we are gonna be receiving.. Since Qualcomm have stopped work for S3 chipset devices.. We won't be getting official 4.2.2.. Same case like HTC One S.. Sad that Qualcomm too rejecting the good handsets.. Damn these companies..!!!!

You have to think about something. If Xperia S won't get updated, what are the chances to update Acro S, sl or ion? Zero.

Nothing stop you to use custom Rom or aosp kernel with stock Rom, maybe XSp Rom( like ported HTC Rom)

Thanks for understanding.
And yes, this is keeping me away from flashing PROPER Custom ROMs, which means that some people (incl. me) will have to stick to 4.1.2 forever...

I actually prefer 4.1 ROMs on xs coz they're much more stable compared to 4.2. I have had battery issues with 4.2 ROMs on xs. Hope Sony release a faster, more stable and more efficient 4.1 rather than 4.2. Lets not forget xs runs on over 2 year old cpu.
[OT]My Wildfire S runs with CM10.1 nearly better than with Stock 2.3.5. But let's not forget it has a CPU that was already 2-3 years old when it was released (ARMv6 generation). [/OT]
Just saying...

But bro, if they give an update to 4.2.2, custom roms will obviously come good.. Atleast if they release sources, that would help devs to build a stable one soon.. But they don't.. And obviously i would choose custom rom over stock anytime.. And what XSP ROM(ported HTC) are u talkin bout bro??
hi all
i have a little question
do i die without seeing 3.4 kernel for our device?b
any developers working on it now?
mogami devices are getting android 4.3 because they have 3.4 kernel but we dont have 4,2
neo/v has legacy xperia 4.2 how come play/neo L don't?? it's unfair

Just 10 minutes ago i installed CM10 on Xperia Miro (this is not my device, mine is Xperia Play ...), but what is the point of the situation?? I flashed the FXP kernel and it was 3.0.8 and our kernel version is 2.6.32!!!! 3.0.8 is ten times better than our kernel version!!
all of the other xperia 2011 devices have 3.4 and 3.0.8 kernel
only play and neo l dont have that
as i know everything is smoother in that kernels but we dont have it
but no one answered my question
is anyone working on 3.4 kernel now?
because doomlord closed his project

Is it possible to port the 3.0.8 kernel of an Xperia device with specs close to Xperia play?? Maybe this can be easier than build a kernel from the source
I think that Xperia Play will NEVER have 3.xx+ kernel, because it's difficulty with porting on such device.

Pretty sure there is nothing difficult in porting a 3.4 kernel to this device that isn't difficult for other devices, But we don't have any 1 to develop such a thing thats the main issue.
dead device
most of real devs leaved xperia play
i think our device is going to be dead soon
I know a Dev, goes by the name of “Hashcode". He, is a GOD. He really knows his stuff, he can make the impossible possible. Sadly, he doesn't have the Xperia Play, but he is the reason why the Kindle Fire is alive; he made CM9 and CM10 Series for The kindle although there was never any official 2.3.4 he has made every thing like the 3.4 Kernel and CM for Kindle. Maybe I can ask him, about the xperia Play, I know he can make some kernels without having the physical device but I will still ask, he may know something.

if we get that kernel xperia play will be alive because over problem is old kernel
