ICS on arc S is slow as hell - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, is it just me or arc S is really slow with ICS?
I tried official rom, mooded rom, Arconium with arknight kernel, stock kernel and doom, and in all roms the device run really slowly.
I tries to set cpu to 1600 mhz, but still its very laggy! do you have similar issues?
is there a fast rom out there? or should I move back to GB?

NO way, mine is super fast, faster than my GS2
Try arconium, but do a full clean, (format /system)

wipe all
format sd card
and install kernel + rom (or just reflash rom if ou want to keep your custom kernel)
micro sd class ? (4/6/10)
result in antutu bench?

yes, I tried all custom ROM and kernel out there and still the lag felt. Not super laggy but still more laggy compared to GB.

I already on arconium 8.2.

I want to flash a new Kernel and rom, which are the best in your opinion?

In my oppinion Arconium ICS 2.4 is really good...
I get around 2-3 days battery-life and is manageable snappy even with 100 apps

i used ICS very long but i have some problems with games(force closes) and speed then i flashed GB...unlocked my bootloader ... installed doomkernel and arconium 8.2...now i can do anything!! no force closes nothing! rom is very fast and yes i tryed stock GB too and this was a lot better than ics
P.S. sorry for english

Try Arc AOKP, with Sirkay AOKP kernel

One more thing, you don't have to overclock to 1600Mhz in order to get a fast/smooth experience, 1200Mhz is good enough for me.

well, i dont know if its tolate to say this, but maybe the source of the lag is the xperia launcher, im actually on arconium ics 4.0, at first i did experiment some lag, but then i deleted the xperia launcher and semc music from the system/app folder installed apex launcher with google play music, without overclocking, my arc started working like a charm, arc not arc s, so you can see its not a power issue, maybe your android experience demands more than ours? do you play hd games or use the internet regularly? ics is not laggy with software rendering enabled but the experience with heavy apps may vary becuase our arc comes only with 500mb ram.

If you want speed try arconium 8 (GingerBread)

Flash Arconium ICS or AOKP.

I got Arconium 4.0 and am very happy with it. The force close bug on games isn't related to the rom (it's becaus of ICS). try another kernel for testing! I use Xarc2.0 and it runs as hell! ;D

Definitely AOKP build 39 + sirkay AOKP kernel-fast as hell, stable and plenty of customization. latest kernel has some problems with video playback so might wanna try fxp 125 our the older one

[Q] which rom is the best ?

hi everyone!
I want to root and install a new rom on my friend's Xperia Arc ...
but I wanted to know which ROM is the best for high score benchmarks(like antutu) and the stabliest for the everyday use...
My option one is the JJ's HYBRID ROM v3.1
the 2nd Cyanogenmod nightly
the 3rd cyanogenmod stable...
if a better rom is not on the list please tell me
And can i overclock with the stock kernel of the stock ics ?
Cheers...
Arconium ICS V2.0 with Aroma installer
Mooded ICS 100.0 by Chaosfirzen
you need to root and unlock the bootloader... why would you have CM nightly 2nd and CM stable 3rd? and you can overclock the stock kernel but faliure can happen so use a custom kernel for OC
Arconium 4.0 ICS
CM7.2-Stable
heres a whole selection to choose from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1653188
the best rom i would suggest is ka21 in terms of battery life while in idle mode, it gives me as low as 0.2 % battery loss per hour(measured using battery drain from play store). it is very diffrent and even has jellybean mod.
if you would want to overclock the stock kernel then use this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1673476 . if u have an unlocked bootloader, you can even flash custom kernels. note that an unlocked bootloader CAN be relocked.
for me its JJ's HYBRID ROM v3.1 which is good for everyday use.
UI wise for me its better looking with the original look and feel of the android 4, and usable than others.
But it all depends on personal preference.
I used every moded rom for xperia arc and i stayed with stock 4.0.4 with few modification (mainly Xperia S app, any modified sustemUI) and obviously DooMKernel chaos v5
With every moded rom I have some problems (Lockscreen stuck for few minutes <<i cant unlock phone>> , CM9 camera app sux, on JJ sometimes i cant answer the phone, ChaosFriZen eat battery in less than one day) Maybe my phone is "broke" but with stock rom I have no problems...
Arconium 4 with few files from KA21(SemcDlna.apk) and Xperia S apps
and KTG kernel
I tried Mooded but is full of bugs and not as fast as arconium

Arconium MIUI > MIUI
Arconium ICS > CM9 > JJ's > MoDDed
But arconium ICS looks like stock sony ICS, only have few customization options
(doesnt have quickpanel settings on statusbar but you can use a mod)
I want to know the answer too! i have been using MIUI V4 official but for some rason it is all slow! It takes like 5 secs for the dialer to show up as well as all the systems apks. also, the entire phone is just slow. i even overclocked the phone to 1.6GHz. Why is this???

Try em and see.
Arconium miui is based on an old version of miui but its smoother, faster and more customizable, arconium 4.0 is laggy due to the xperia **** on it, jj hybrid rom is good, but not the best, i tried cm9 but its to buggy, try aokp milestone 6 its like cm9 but 99 percent of the bugs have been fixed, you get vanilla android experience and its super smooth and fast, way more than arconium.

Agree
I recommend you to try arconium 8 (GB) or another GB custom rom with doomkernel(GB), with an ICS theme mod, you will get the best of your phone and it will looks like ICS
i am now using arconium 4.0 ics , cause i found out it is the fastest and on this rom i can play temple run, without having laggs sometimes

Searching for ICS or JB ROM

Hello, i am looking for ICS or JB Roms for my Xperia Play. I don't know how many Roms are excisting, but i am looking for an ICS or JB which i can tweak without additional Apps realy good, and which doesn't need much Memory and Ram and also i can overlclock up to 2.0GHz(not necessary) or i can use the Lupus Kernel.
I have the SlimBean Jelly Bean Rom with the Sony Theme and Sony Addons like Media Apps or Walkman. It´s really fast and for me the best rom

OK thanks, i will try it.
So now i only need one thing, and that is the Lupus v4 Kernel for JB, because thats the last one which i can OC up to 2.0GHz
Jelly Zeus is another good jellybean ROM with Google apps allready installed so you don't have to flash them. Turbo ui is a good kernel to use with it
sent from my r800x using xda app
ROM: Jellyzeus
Kernel: Turbo r13

hahahahaha your asking for the perfect rom wich is not been created yet lol
i would recomend you follow attacks post for the step by steps
but for gaming i would probably go with Cola Rom as it is the fastest rom for gaming and probably doomkernel for your kernel.
and for jellybean rom i would go with Slimbean...well thats my thoughts... hoped it helped

Is doomkernel good for 2.3.3? I've tried Lupus GBv11 it works but the wifi is only functional on 2.3.4 I've tried hatcyl's 2.3.3 kernel with 1.6 overclock which just causes my play to bootloop and act crazy. Whats the best kernel available to 2.3.3? From what I can tell the bulk of custom ROMS are based off 2.3.3. Aside from Lupus' GBv11 kernel wifi problem with 2.3.3 it worked perfectly. So a good custom ROM based off 2.3.4 might be an alternative, any suggestions?

Doomkernel v2 is the best kernel that I have used. I run it at 1.2ghz smartassv2 and sio. You also have to flash wifi modules that come with it. I've never had problems with it. Debloated stock 2.3.3 or my Zeuscnxtlite(Stock 2.3.3) rom gets me 300mb free ram on average.
Since Download links are down for doomLord, here are the files.

[Q] Best rom for gaming?

What rom do you guys recommend in terms of raw gaming power, GB rom? ICS rom? JB rom? CM9/10/10.1?
Please tell me actual experience on the rom and not just showing benchmarks, I don't trust them(benchmarks) as they don't really apply to real life use

As far as I've experienced, stock ICS is the best!
I'd recommend EOS with OpenSEMC Beta 3 or stock JB with modded kernel for OC.
Stock JB with Forzaferrarileo kernel/Stock GB with DooMKerneL/EOS/CM9.
If you're looking for performance, I'd use Stock JB with DoomKernel to use OC. But, as I see, there's not so much performace differences between Stock JB and other custom roms based on AOSP/CM.

Wow looks like everyone had different opinions. Thank you all for the feedback I think I'm gonna take the time and try every rom to see which one suits me best
For gaming performance, you can try Trinity ROM & Kernel. But I haven't test it yet, not sure.
Sent from my flying Snapdragon Xperia™ S using Tapatalk 4 :laugh:
All stock Sony ROMs.
I didn't try any custom rom
but for stock rom, JB is the best
.200 and .211 are both great and smooth
u should try trinity's kernel for stock based ROMS not only can u overclock processor but also overclock the 2D and 3D GPU performance.....i played Asphalt 7 and Modern Combat 4 and not a single stutter.
Or try PAC with Kernel 3.4. It is really fast even without OC.
Possibility to overclock CPU/GPU will be included in later releases.
Camera/Torch is working with today's release, but only 8MPX photos for now.
