[Q] Can you use Arc S Software for the Arc? - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

ICS for the Xperia phones are coming March/April, but only to the Arc S, Neo V and Ray, then about a month after the other phones.
Would I be able to flash the Arc S software into my Original Arc? and would it still be usable and such?

Check what DooMLoRD did the the Alpha for Arc S...
He ported it and it works fine, even the unported Arc S build was reported to work on Arc.

Porting ICS BETA to Xperia Pro(MK16i)

ICS BETA was recently launch a few weeks ago and there were allot of development done using that. It was only for arc s, ray and neo v and was already ported to be use with the arc and the neo. I wonder if there are people that are good enough to port it for the Xperia pro. I really want to try it but after the new Xperia 2011 was released Xperia pro was left out by Sony and all the new things were dedicated to the newer phones. I would be grateful if someone can port this ICS for the Xperia pro user.
Thanks.

Have you tried just flashing it and see what happens (might be dangerous...). The ICS beta for Neo V works ok if I flash it without any patches to my Neo.
Maybe just try to flash ICS beta for Xperia Neo V and if it works try the patches for the Neo and see what happens.

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.

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."

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.

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?

Xperia E JB port/dump to Arc

first of all, sorry if this is already a duplicate thread, i can't find anything regarding Xperia E port to Arc.
Xperia E is known to have inferior hardware specs than Arc, but this one have stock jellybean (4.1.1?)
was there any straight port from the dump of Xperia E so that we have a close official form of stock sony jellybean, to run on our Arc?
i know also there are jellybean custom ROMs for Arc around, tried a few but it doesn't match the overall responsiveness of gingerbread. also, the custom ROMs more often look like stock android, losing the Sony style, but this depends on the owner's taste. for me i still prefer the Sony style and look.
i would assume the Sony stock jellybean running on Xperia E to be minimalistic and fast to support its hardware, so definitely would run better on the Arc, plus the Sony style is there.
is there anything out already, or no dev much interested in this? thanks fellow xda arc users!
