Problem with flashing custom rom - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ive got this message in cwm when was restoring (jj's hybrid for locked bootloader): no app2sd partition found, any ideas?
Locked Bootloader Arc S.
When i want to format sd-ext --> same message.

That means that CWM didn't find a second partition in your SD card used by Link2SD.
Is it working fine, JJ ROM?

Im just wondering if i can flash it with this 'error'.
Prince

I presume jj's rom has app2ext built in, but it shouldn't affect the rom. But check on the rom thread.

I was asking, but no1 replied.
Prince

It will work. That "error" is just a check if a sd partition exists to make use of. Wont affect sysyem if missing.

hints that migh be helpful to prevent trouble when flashing custom roms & kernels
hi there,
i'm not entirely sure if this will help you but generally speaking i came made a few observations about the fact that some people, mostly repeatingly the same users, encounter problems with their custom roms and/or flashing them, while others don't, albeit they are using the same devices.
i myself use 3 different devices, all rooted and running on pac 4.3, always latest nightly, as there are GT-N7100 - GT-I9100 - Nexus 4
not to the point
a) other than most other users i usually clean cache and dalvik cache as well before and after flashing the new rom and/or new nightly
and never encountrer any problems except those which everybody, using the same rom and nightly encounters.
b) whenever i flash an totally different rom and/or upgrade and/or downgrade to another level of android os, i.e. from 4.2.2 to 4.3, i perform
a clean install, including not only a factory reset, but as well a format sd-card, format cache and format system etc., again i cannot proof
which of these steps make a or the differnce but however, i never have problems others than thosw which everyone has with a version.
c) when using cusome kernels and due to the fact that some roms come with a kernel included, as well as with a custom recovery included,
it is strongly recommended not to forget to flas the kernel again after each flashing the new rom. one good example ist dorimanx kernel
for GT-I9100 which will not boot into recovery and reluctantly boot at all after a new flash of a pac nightly without reflashing the kernel.
d) try to fix permissions on reboot instead of doing it from recovery. one reason is that not every recovery has this option and further i
found that when fixing permissions before the first boot after flashing a new rom, there might be bootloops, albeit i cannot explain exactly
why that should, but however, sometimes it's better to be on the safe sid.
e) try to run whether the lastes version of custom recovery for your device, and or the use the included custom recovery of the rom or the
kernel. this again is one thing that can help to avoid some unexpected and hard to explain bootproblems and/or fc's etc.
hope that i could give you some new ideas how to avoid trouble while using custom roms and other hacks

You must use ICS kernel, either unlock bootloader and install custom ICS kernel, or first install/update to stock ICS and then follow the same method.

i already did 6 times
i already tried 6-7 time to install custom rom when it stuck on sony logo i flashed it with orignal stock rom and tried again but every times same problem arise. now i am not understanding where i missed

First install stock ICS firmware, Android 4.0.4 (4.1.B.0.587 or 4.1.B.0.431), and then install the custom ROM. Did you do it so? Can you write the file, which you used?

no..i flashed only base version 4.0.2.A
i always flash "LT18i_4.0.2.A.0.58(2.3.4)_HK" after every bootloop, i not tried to flash 4.1.B.587....few month before tried it to flash but i think it is not able to flash because of system partition is is less because of 4.0.2.................well benifit of installing upgraded rom "4.0.4 (4.1.B.0.587 or 4.1.B.0.431)" and are you sure after that i will able to install it..?

[Help] Custom ROM

I updated my Arc S with the official ICS update from sony however the lag and other issues were driving me mad so i decided to root my phone.
The next obvious step seemed to be installing a custom ROM so i installed clockwork mod and made a back up, everything great so far.
I made a back-up and wiped my phone, went to install the free xperia CM9 ROM and thats when everything went pear shaped.
The ROM didn't install, i wiped my phone again but got the same distressing fail.
Thinking there was possibly a fault with the zip i re-downloaded the ROM and found an alternative (one of the arcronium ones i think) and put those on my SD, all seemed to be well and good, i had a backup and Clockwork Mod what could possibly go wrong?
Well when i tried to boot my phone in recovery all i get is a boot loop! :crying:
The only thing i could do was to use flashtools and flash a ROM to my beloved Arc S
I tried this exact process a few times but suffered the same fate, please can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? or could i apply a custom ROM using flashtools?
Where I'm currently at:
Model number: LT18i
Android version: 4.0.3
Baseband: 8x55A-AAABQOAZM-203028G-70
Kernel Version: 2.6.32.9-perf [email protected] #1
Build Number: 4.1.A.0.562
Where I would like to be in an ideal world:
Fully working Arc S running Cynogen Mod 9 :victory:
Any help achieving this would be greatly appreciated!

FXP ROM function best on FXP Kernels... Try flashing one of their Kernels and reinstalling the ROM.
Bootloader open?
And for CM u need a fxp kernel, but u cant use it with arconium, there u need trinity or arc-knight kernel
Make sure to do a "Wipe data / factory reset" and "Wipe cache partition" when going from stock or from another custom ROM
I have no idea if my bootloader is open or not, how do i tell?
I found this link to the FXP CM 9.0 but i have no idea what anything is.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1356685
I'm guesing "CM9.0 RC1 FXP127" is a kernel? and if so how do i flash it and what do i do next?
Thanks for the replies, I'll be getting my Arc fixed in no time
Did you follow any instructions from sony to unlock bootloader?

No, it's a ROM. You need to read things carefully before just going and flashing this or flashing that. Flash a stock ROM with the Flashtool and start over.

Dude, First thing you gotta do is unlock your boot loader. Google around you will find it. To unlock the boot loader as well as to flash a custom kernel you need something called fastboot. There is a video in youtube on how to use fastboot and flash custom kernel and that user has provided the download link as well go and search. After unlocking boot loader install CWM (either with auto installer or by flashing a custom kernel with CWM) After doing that flash the FXP127 zip booting in to CWM. The FXP127 zip contains the FXP kernel as well so don't worry when you flash that the kernel gets changed as well. Still can't figure it out. I suggest you keep away from flashing roms Just kidding.
I'm on a stock ROM at the moment that i flashed so i'll just follow some instructions and unlock my bootloader first.
Where can i the latest FXP kernel?
Again Cheers guys

You can find CM9 kernel in zip that you just downloaded. Open it an Extract "boot.img" file. That is the kernel. Flash that first, go to recovery, wipe all data, wipe dalviks chcae, format /system and then chose "install .zip from SD card" and select FXPCM9.zip (or whatever it is named) and it will install you CM9. Don't forget on Gapps.
excellent i unlocked my bootloader and i've got the kernel and rom i want, just one last thing, whats the baseband and when do i flash it (if i have to flash it at all)?
Unfortunately i forgot i uninstalled the stock sony launcher and when unlocking the bootloader it wiped launcher pro so my phones pretty useless as it stands so the quicker i can get a new rom on the better!
Many thanks again, I'm slowly getting there
All done
Cheers for the help everyone!
baseband controls radio communications like communications with cell towers
I did not flash any baseband and it works

[Q] Help with installing custom rom

Hey guys,
I'm new to the Xperia Arc development and need some help with installing a custom rom. I've done quite a bit of reading but still can't figure out what is wrong and why it's simply not working.
So from what I gathered the steps to ensure a successful flash are:
Firstly flash a stock rom via flashtool ie LT18i_4.1.B.0.587.ftf
flash LT18i_4.1.A.0.562_Kernel > root the device > flash back to LT15a_4.1.B.0.587_Kernel
Then now that the device is rooted, I need to install a recovery such as CWM via RecoverX
So, so far so good as I can access CWM, stock rom works fine as well
So then next step is to unlock the bootloader
pretty sure this worked, as when i tried to unlock it again, it said it failed as it was already unlocked
Now flash a custom kernel, in this case i flashed the 146 FXP CM kernel
This also seemed successful as I was presented with a custom splash screen
So then after custom kernel is installed I enter recovery, wipe the cache and reset factory settings, format the data system and cache as well as wiping the dalvik and battery stats.
After, I installed the custom rom zip file, in this case it was aokp_anzu-ota-eng.kxp_build5 and then google apps and then reboot.
So my problems begin here.
My phone seems to be stuck in the boot process (sometimes), on the "initiating swagger" splash screen and it goes crazy. I've tried flashing this rom with other kernels (fusion 3.9) and sometimes it actually loads up into the rom. But the rom is extremely laggy, applications freeze and close and the wifi never works
So my question is, is there any steps or procedures that I am missing, not doing right or in the correct order?
I don't think it's any hardware issues as wifi works in the stock rom, and it's fairly smooth and fluid.
Also, is there a better way to flash roms so that I don't need to do this entire process of flashing a stock rom, rooting, unlocking bootloader, installing recovery every time I want to flash a new rom? And when I flash a custom kernel first, then flash a custom rom that has a kernel inbuilt (cm10) does the custom rom's kernel replace the one i just flashed, reason for asking is that the instructions say to flash the custom kernels and then the roms, but yeh just hasn't been working for me so not really sure how to do what.
I'd really appreciated any help or insight!
Thanks

Thanks! I've read your guide (what I based my flashing on) and it seems consistent with what I have done, on the surface of it anyway. If you think I missed or overlooked something, would it be possible to point it out?
If your boot loader is unlocked it's as simple as this...
1. Flash kernel
2. Wipe cache etc
3. Install ROM
...I always reboot before installing anything else as I've found it can break the installation of the ROM.

As ExpirienceD says,just one more thing flash kernel modules if you need to.
So:
1.Flash kernel
2.Full wipe data/cach...etc...
3.Flash ROM
4.Flash kernel modules

Flashing JB Roms causes bootloops

Hello guys!
As the title says, I keep on having boot loops after flashing any custom JB Roms (Jedi, LiquidSmooth, CM Nightly, Slimbean). I'm not new to flashing roms (I got LG units though, SU660 and KU5900). When I tried flashing ICS Roms, I don't have any problem. But I want JB that bad!
I followed KonstantinKeller's thread of restoring/recovering from a bad flash (going back to GB), rooted following Melvin's thread. Then did all the prerequisites..like the common wiping of data, clear cache & davlik. But then again after flashing JB roms listed above, I keep on having boot loops!
What did I do wrong? This ain't my first time flashing (first time on this phone -T989- though)
I read some posts with almost the same problem, but I don't think I found a solution for this. Any good soul that can extend their help is highly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
I got a bootloop before when trying to flash JB roms and what I did was restore to original state (using the bad flash recovery technique), and then not rooting it but installing cwm through Odin and dirty flashing the Rom in cwm. Once it flashed I used it for a few to make sure that everything was working correctly. Then I got the goo manager app and got twrp. After that I followed all the steps in the OP (Jedi jelly) and flashed the Rom. Now I'm running Jedi jelly 3.1 perfectly. Hope this method helps.

is there any way to reverse the loop that the darkside wipe is causing?
it REALLY sounds like the recovery u are using is TOO OLD. Make sure u are using the latest version of twrp (2.3.3) to flash all jellybean roms.
TWRP is backwards compatible and touch capable, so if you're worried about flashing GB or ICS ROMs it'll do the trick just fine
it is however a requirement for flashing all 4.1 ROMs.
Basic install instructions:
make sure u have root
download goo manager from play
open > menu > install open script recovery
agree to everything, but make sure t989 is in the downloaded image name
reboot to recovery u should see twrp

well for one you already flashed cobrato's kernel so you're ready to flash a stock based ROM like Trinity Vengeance...
if you want to flash an AOSP or CM based ROM like PACMAN or CM10.1 just download the ROM package, extract the boot.img that's inside the package, fastboot flash the boot.img, reboot to recovery [they already have their own recovery with the kernel], wipe data and cache and then flash the ROM package

what i did when i flashed trinity was:

flash trinity rom
reboot to system
if you wanna flash forzaferrarileo kernel after flashing the rom just fastboot flash it or use flashtool..i dunno if you can use forzaferrarileo kernel to flash the rom, but i beleive you can do so since it has cwm recovery already
Make sure you have the latest version of Flashtool.

buddy just follow steps described in the kernel's thread properly and you won't face any problem
also some kernels require you to be on a particular platform when installing them like a kernel may only get installed on 4.2.2 and not less or more than it and may be only compatible with stock roms and not on cm or other custom rom so please be careful before flashing a kernel while flashing it
