You can just use the FlashTools to flash a stock firmware (FTF file).

As in downoload a stock ics rom,plug the phone in flashboot mode and flash it?

Yup. After flashing, you would lose root. To get it back, just flash the superuser binary using recovery from a custom kernel.

I think you have to select "Set on boot". If it doesn't work you can try downloading no-frills CPU control or setcpu and set it there (that's what I did).

I experienced some random reboots after flashing AC!D on P.A.C rom.
On the other side, no problems with FXP146.

Conclusion, sony mods hardly work on custom rom, stay locked!
AC!D 5.0 is working like a charm on stock .45

Just flash back to stock then root and install CWM via x-parts and flash this custom rom.
Also its called kernEl not "kernAl"
Oh and If you are so lazy that you cant google "vengeance kernel" for yourself then you don't deserve any help.

If I got it right, you lose your CWM because you have your bootloader locked, and therefore stock kernel, most custom kernels have a CWM included and you keep it as long as you keep the kernel, even after wiping.

I tested kernels for Arc and the best 1 is Rush kernel (link is in ZC thread) don't use xparts etc use flashtool! Xparts etc just screw with Rom kernel! Seriously people read the WHOLE instructions and recommended kernels list! All recommended kernel links are in thread! Read people, read!

Screen problem only lupus v13 works

I've been trying to switch from jellybean back to GB. But every time I flash another kernel no matter which one I get a blank screen with only the backlight when I turn on the phone. Not even the kernel image or boot animation show up just a backlight. I've tried every kernel I could possibly find as well as flashing stock ft for my r800x. The only kernel that works with the screen is lupus jb v13. The weird thing is lupus v8 doesn't eben work nor turbo kernel. Lupus jb v13 is the only one that does. I wsd thinking it was a hardware problem but not sure because lupus jb v13 works fine except for when I slide open game pad I have to shut screen off and on for image to show up. Its been like this for a couple days and I finally decided I need help . So if you have any suggestions please help me. Thank you for reading my really long desperate plead for help

Just an idea, is it any command in build.prop to disable autobrightness? So you can change rom before flashing.
Or if you know how to blindly flash a rom (positions in cwr, name folder on sd card "AAA" so it can be first in the list).
Or maybe program on pc that can take screenshots so you can somehow disable autobrightness...
But it's probably hardware fault...

Did Wedgess released any versions between v8 and v13?
In he's changelog, in v9, there is an "Undervolt LCD display" feature. Maybe, but not nececcery, a thing that is lighting up your display...
What other kernels did you tried? All of them? All versions?

Yeah, i saw your post in kernels thread.
I found link of how build kernel at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2149508
I wanted to learn to build kernel from source, but unfortunately all my attempts to setup linux on virtual machine has failed (and linux is needed to build kernel from source).
I understand your frustration, since all jb roms have touchpad lag, and kinda kill the purpose of having Xperia play.

I know what the problem is though its the backlight. Because i flashed lupus jb v8 and a rom aand it worked but you can barely see the screen. So i think its because the backlight wont turn on. On fxp cm10 and lupus lupus jb13 it works by itself though. Ahhhhh this is so frustrating. I was just about to test dixperia 3 too and now i cant. For now im going to go back to jellybean but i really wanna get this fixed but im starting to get conviced its a hardware problem. I think ill take my phone apart and check

-try to turn on phone with opened gamepad
-try to flash kernel with opened gamepad
-flash kernel, turn off phone, pull out battery, try to turn on after 10 minutes
-boot into (jb) rom, from flashtool, select "boot into fastboot via adb"
-flash kernel only when the Moon is in 30 degree angle between Sun and Earth lol
Sorry man, i am getting out of ideas

im going to try everything you suggested except for the last one lol. I think if none of those work i might just give up. But does anyone know if kernel affects backlight in any way because thats the problem. With other kernels the backlight is off so even highering brightness doesnt help. But with the other two kernels fxp and lupus v13 it works fine. When i flashed lupus jb v8 after fxp cm 10 kernel last time it worked. I tried the same thing again but without any results

Kernel 2in1 [ICS/GB]

Hey guyz, is there any kernel which works for both ics and gb.
There was a lupus version long time ago, but I don't remember the version. If any body know please post here.
Thanks

If I remember correctly, newest ICS Lupus (v15 or v16) can boot both ICS and GB.

I don't have the phone at hand right now, being used as temporary backup phone by a relative.
Just try it yourself. You can't really mess up anything. ICS boots definitely on that kernel, GB should, but if it doesn't, you can just flash another kernel/ROM or even stock firmware.

The thing is m not having PC availability, I have to request to my faculty for system access but only for 5-10 mins. So I can't test in that time, cause I can't stay to ics cause of its performance for long time. otherwise I wouldn't have posted this thread if I had PC.
Btw thanks mate.

Seems to be lupus v14. In the sticky thread for roms/root/kernels/mods etc. in arc development section (post 3, gb kernels) it's mentioned. I looked into lupus thread and in the changelog for older releases you see v14 that should boot up on ics, cm9 and gb. But I didn't test it myself :angel:
Cheers!

Lupus is ics+gb kernel (latest version) u can use both of the firmware and its based roms with this kernel.[emoji3]

So i confirm here that lupus is two in one kernel. Thanks for your response guys.
