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).

Thanks XperienceD but, try to find rom´s 2.3.7, and in the link that you post only there roms 2.3.4 and 4.0.4, i´ll like use gb 2.3.7 cause 4.0.4 y a lot slower and the consumption of RAM is so high
2.3.4 is the last SE official GB ROM. Most of the Roms are based on that. Only CM 7.2 is GB 2.3.7, but battery drains fast.

I recommend the one in my signature, which is ICS custom ROM. But GB Arconium 8.2 is very good, especially for gaming.
If you want to stay on official, definitely GB.

Why don't you post in the ROM thread, Chaos is answering (in his own original way) to all points.
My guess: it depends on what you choose in Aroma.

Where I can download the stock kernel? I searched and did not find it
Do you have the stock ROM.ftf file? If so, you can just flash the kernel alone in Flashtool.
If you don't have it, just download it from the forum. There are plenty available.

I'm thinking I'm retarded .. I can not find the correct kernel. I tried 3 and always I have to flash back doomkernel.
If someone can help me... I would be forever grateful!
Just go here and download any of the .ftf. Use Flashtool and just flash the kernel alone [Exclude everything else].

Because you're using GB and not ICS, which most mods are based on these days, so update to ICS and try again.

doom kernel v21 is for GB rom.
u cant use it on ICS rom,such as Xperia Ultimate HD 2.0 rom.

wow this is very enlighting, so it means that i may not use Xperia Ultimate HD on doomkernel21 right? i tried DK22 but it doesnt work also so that means i have to update on ICS to use other ICS based kernel? how do i update my arc to ICS? coz as i remember i cant update over the air with an ulocked bootloader right? so how do i update to ICS? and where do i download those update files? please point me to the right thread. when i tried pc companion it says my device is updated.:fingers-crossed:

You only need to unlock your boot loader the once, you will need to root again though.

i have seen videos on how to update via flash tool but its kinda complicated and still have to flash kernels, is there any other way or an easy way to update my arc? sorry bro for i have so many questions and still i have more.
what rom for GB do u suggest i use for my arc?
Flashing a stock ftf also flashes the included kernel. If you're still struggling with video tutorials or guides then someone else will have to assist as I'm not here to spoon feed for the reason stated in the second line of my guide.

You cant use ICS mods with a GB kernel.
Have you unlocked your bootloader already?

at last my perseverance paid off, lots of reading, searching, downloading and bookmarking and trial and error and came to the point that i almost bricked my ARC. i am now on android 4.0.4 BB-77 with Advanced stock kernel, build# .587 running on xperia ultimate HD 2.0
heres my screenshot.
BTW if there is someone still a noob like me in flashing heres the simplest vid that i found and it work for me, you should have all drivers installed on your pc
do not release the back button until flashing is finished and not all back button are on the right side as seen on flashtool

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!
