we have known that Arc (LT15i) could be overclocked to 1.9Ghz by using DoomKernel; now, i just wonder how much the Arc-S (LT18i) could be overclocked ?
anybody did the job ?

You can flash DoomKernel and Overclock with it. Xperia Arc can go up to 1.9Ghz but I would assume Arc s can go further you can test it though.

Hi there,
I was wondering if the Arc S can be flashed and rooted in the same way as the original Arc can be rooted and flashed?
Same firmware?
Same tools?
Same Howto's?
Same everything?
I assume this to be true as it was often said that the Arc S is just an Arc running at higher clock speed but even with the same CPU model.
Anybody with a rooted Arc S?
best regards
See the rooting kit.

sir, I have xperia arc lt15i locked boot loader, never rooted , updated to 4.0.4 from pc companion software. Now I just want to root this phone, so went through many threads , and confused in the dillema that if I have to download whole 4.0.3 rom for xperia arc then flash it, then root it, then again flash the whole 4.0.4 rom, or just have to download only kernel and do the above process.
If just kernel can be used for the whole process ,then whether arcs kernel can be used in arc, because every where in the forum, only arcs kernal's link are posted and no arc 4.0.3 kernal was found by me.
Please clarify the process and doubts, it would be a great help.
Thanks in advance.
There was no 4.0.3 for the arc, that was for the arc S. The arc was directly updated to 4.0.4.
So yes, you need the 4.0.3 kernel for the arc S.

No need to download the whole ROM. Just the kernel is fine.

Hi my friends, i m sorry my bad english,
i have Xperia SL and i like roms (miui,cm9 ..)
my ask= xperia s roms work at my xperia sl?
i dont want bad camera and slow speed
Yes it will work, but then the SL CPU maximum frequency will be 1.5 GhZ. not 1.7
Depending on what rom etc you pick you can just add a compatible overclocking kernel to put you back to 1.7 ghz

Hey guys, if xperia sl owners can flash xperia s roms, can we flash xperia sl's official jb on s and get a mild speed bump. Maybe 1080p could be recorded again?
Right now I am on official jb, rooted and bl unlocked.
Thanks
I'm pretty sure I read before somewhere not to flash back the other way due to the S being older it lacks something the SL has. Hopefully someone can confirm

Thanks anyways,
I would have experimented myself but coming from galaxy's I am not sure I could make my even soft bricked xperia work again. Bootloaders are a headache!
Bump
Anyone knows the answer? Still waiting u know
note
Sony Xperia S and SL are almost identical its just that SL is over-clocked.. simple as. flashing a SL ROM on S wouldn't make even a tiny difference
take note , that some Xperias can handle above 1.7ghz clock on the CPU my Xperia s can handle the CPU to be over clocked but it depends on the voltage of that clock ,
for more info please reply

I know, I myself oc'ed my xperia to 1.89ghz.
But currently there is no custom kernel that can be oc'ed, aand camera video @ 1080p is really laggy, thats why I was thinking of crossflash.
And I think sl has a different bluetooth version as well.
Has anyone tried this before?
And I am thinking of flashing it via flashtool. So can anyone tell me that if my device gets soft bricked, I put it in download mode and flash a compatible rom right?

There is a custom kernel that allows you to overclock to 1728 MHz. Try the new DoomKernel . So no need to crossflash.

You can't OC when you have locked bootloader,you have to unlock bootloader,flash custom kernel then you'll be able to OverClock higher.

This topic is not about overclocking.
He has Arc S, which should have stock CPU frequency of 1.4 GHz, however new ROM set it to 1.0 GHz.
To OP: When installing the ROM, did you install the Arc S version?
. Arc S, Non unlockable,xperia Honami Z1 rom by Saqib. Ask for anything else....
Flashed through cwm. also tried to reflash stock and than the Honami rom, I also got this when using the Ultimate HD rom.
Someguy theres just one version for both..

No... well actually yes... the thing is i bought the phone from a shop without box n anything and i was told its an arc S so i flashed the stock arc S rom before i put my self to romraping the phone... So thats why it says its lt18i now... But nope u wont increase the system partition with this ive got like 420MB cca 300 free after flashing... Its still lt15 afterall it just thinks more of itself nowz...
