now rom manager says 'im on cwm 4.0.1.5 but it isnt for arc!
Ive no rebooted in recovery to not brick my phone but now i need some help to solve this problem...

EDIT: can i use this pack from here :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1299729 to flash recovery? its for "Arc"

Please help me...

I think that rom manager still have no support for xperia arc,and you cannot flash recovery that way.
You need to unlock your bootloader first,then to follow tutorial from your link.
if you need more help,just ask

thanks Chobby

Did it work then? Having problems myself with the Arc S :/

It's never easy to really brick an arc than a galaxy tablet, had the mainboard replaced. flashtool really a very good tool to revive an arc.
Calm down then try this 1 by 1

Hi, Janto
For me, just flashing a custom rom it can't block u getting into cwm. It may stuck with the Kernel's logo/bootAnimation but should passes the CWM notification first.
If you could provide info(Name & version) of your kernel & rom, it would be better for us to help you bring your expensive device back to life:fingers-crossed:
My suggestion is:
1. Use Fastboot to flash a good kernel (Anyone from the development section), then CWM, thought you know how to do a flash again
2. If above step not works, download flashtool (The top thread in the development section) and a complete tft files, then do a flash using the flashtool, this should give you a brand new phone.
BTW: you r BL or not? search for X-parts if u r still locked.

[Q] i can't flash doomkernel .

i try to flash it with Fastboot Flasher-V3.2 and it says my arc s is not rooted and it is already rooted and super user appeared ... also this message appears when i try to install any rom boot.img by fastboot mode in flash tool .
plz help .. thx for every thing .
u must unlock your boot loader from Sony ,Google it before asking !
Regards
And if you have unlocked it and still getting the message then it's not rooted properly. Also provide more details when posting such as what firmware you're using. The one thing you wont find on XDA is mind reading.

As you're new, give my GUIDE a quick read, it covers pretty much everything. If your BL is already unlocked, then reflash the stock ROM, then boot in to recovery using your computer, see HERE and flash the attachment which will root your Phone. If you still get the error message then you might not have unlocked your BL properly either.

Try un-mounting the SYSTEM partition from the Recovery's > Mount menu before installing.
Cheers.
Extract the .zip and flash (flashtool) boot.img before flashing from recovery is my tip.
