I would keep the Arc, unless you have allot of money and prefer the colors of the new Arc S as you have allready unlocked your existing Arc and can clock it as high as the Arc S.
Well.. i'll just keep my arc then..
I like the white arc s, I'll just gonna buy the outer case later..
Thanks

This has to of been covered before... I tried a search but to no avail... What i want to know is can the arc be o/c to 1.4ghz like the arc s or better? and is it an easy process? Reason for my asking is i maybe in the possession of an arc form a friend who has defected to crapple.. I have looked at both specs on the cpu and the only difference i saw at the end of the scorpion processor is that the model number ends in a "T" so is it a different processor?
Or would it be in my best interests in getting a arc s? would both processors be able to be in creased beyond 1.4? safely?
Cheers guys.
if you follow the steps correctly, then its not a problem.
yes, you can OC the CPU speed of the both arc and arc S beyond 1.4Ghz. im with the regular arc with 2.0 Ghz OC cpu. using the DooMLorD kernel.

The first place you should have looked was in Development section.

Ok awesome!! I had no idea you could double the regular arc's cpu thats fantastic im gonna have to pull my mate up take it from him then go back to him and show him what he's missing lol! But clocked at 2ghz and its safe for daily use?

Of course not!
Maybe for Arc S but for normal Arc 1.4-1.5GHz are safe daily.
Very high oc is just for showing off and benchmarks, not for daily use.

Thats cool, thanks for clearing that up for me, at least the normal arc can be beefed up nicely. the thought of having ICS with o/c and if wolfbreak does rom tweaks like with the x10 with the 2.3.3 would be very interested in using this combo..
hello :cyclops:
i have the arc s lt18i.
in the beginning i flash the official sony ics release and i compare it to the samsung galaxy s1 - i9000 with custom rom (run ics).
the result is that the galaxy s1 much faster and smoother then the arc s. all the menus are much faster and the youtube app much much smoother. - the arc s is laggy and dont smooth in youtube app when i move from comments section to "other videos" section,when i scrolling in the "comment" section or "other videios" section.
i think thatthe official rom is the problem so i flashed ics jj hybrid rom.
now the phone is fast but not like the samsung galaxy s1 :crying:
the ypuyube app is very lag when i play a clip and navigate in the "comments" section, which in galaxy s1 is smooth!
as much as i know the arc s have a 1.4ghz and better specs
so what is the problem? is the samsung galaxy s1 is really better then the arc s?
thanks! :good:
Did you flash any custom kernel ? Its pretty fast for me ..

i flashed 431 kernel with cwm.
a custom kernel really Influencing the speed?
when you scrolling in the the comments of a music video on youtube the scroll is not smooth? (while the music video is playing)
p.s can ypu give me a good kernel that support jj hybrid rom?
thanks man

ArcKnight Kernel
I tried the arcknight kernel but my phone was even slower and had problems with its signal, now I'm using the stock kernel with cwm and xperia ice bean ROM.

Usually the purpose of a kernel is to over/under clock so go ahead and try doing that

hmm.. so the galaxy s1 with the 1ghz is better then the arc s with 1.4ghz?
because i did not overclocked both of them and the galaxy s1 is much faster.
do you guys have the same lags in the youtube with the scrolling? (while the video playing)
thank you guys for your comment!
Dont Forget
Dont forget that your galaxy S is using a custom rom. Considering if it were on a stock ROM performance would be better on the arc S considering that it is on 4.0.4

what is the matter?
ok but i dont see differences at all in the arc s or the galaxy s1.. i mean the ics look and everything is exactly like the arc s jj hybrid ics.
everything is the same!!! like they both based on ics!!!
but the old galaxy s1 wins for sure

I'm not really sure what your getting at and also the way of using your device could matter. Considering benchmarks the arc S would win for sure whereas in day to day use like you say the galaxy s could be better
Good day, Kudos !

Same problem with my Xperia Arc (ICS) ..
I think Sony mess up with ICS firmware. The phone was great and game friendly with GB, with official ICS it's laggy and don't play many games. I'm with a locked bl based on the 431 firmware. I've tried some roms and finally stick with pureness 10 V6 supercharged. Games won't play, but the phone is more reponsive, with less launcher restart. But overall the phone is slower than my old Desire with CM7

Unlock your bootloader , flash a custom kernel , flash a custom ROM ... Then you will see how fast it can perform...
BTW the galaxy s is probably on a custom kernel which is overclocked , running a custom supercharged ROM...

I don't want to unlocked bootloader and lost warranty and drm right And i don't think that putting a custom kernel made such a difference. But why Sony can't simply release a good rom is beyond my understanding. Why with GB i have no problem to play Angry birds and Asphalt 6 and when i upgrade to ICS, i must sometime reboot to play Angry bird because of touchscreen problem and can't play Asphalt 6 because of lack of usable memory. Maybe it's Google fault too, with ICS to big for 2011 smartphone, or bad Sony rom, but the result is here, unhappy customer, who are think twice before buying a sony phone in the future

If you are not satisfied with ICS then just downgrade to GB... Simple as that...

Yep ! Back to the future is probably the best solution, maybe i'm asking too much to Sony to hope a ICS as good as a GB They now concentrate on lauching too many new phones

You can't. SWAP =/= RAM. Swap is additional space, that can be used like RAM, but it doesn't make it the same. RAM is a lot faster than SWAP.
It's called Xperia S if you want 1gb RAM. To bad eh.

Hi, I've got a small question - I know that Overclocking is dangerous just by itself, but how high can I overclock my LT15i using the built-in switch in FreeXperia CM10 for anzu? I Mean the newest one from their site.
I have flashed the boot.img from inside the update.zip package.
I have successfully OClocked to 1.2, but how high can I do this without damaging the CPU?

Depends on how you use your Phone. I ran my Arc and now my Ray at 1.2GHz for everyday use but some will go higher when gaming.
I have run it on 1.6GHz for a few months last year without ant problems.
