Where i get 2.3.7 original Xperia Arc?

Topic of title, Where i get 2.3.7 original Xperia Arc?
Without cyanogenmod, original Sony Ericsson.
Its possible?
Thanks.

No. .62 firmware (2.3.4) was probably the last gingerbread before ICS.

Than another newby question, what is the difference of 2.3.5 and 2.3.7? :/
And, where i get original updated Xperia Arc ROM? And how to flash, i saw a thread that says to flash all old files o.o
But... ;/

Just use SEUS or PC Companion and update

I have it now and would recommend you to wait... It is quite slow at times... But if you can live with it then give it a go.. I use the Xperia mod and it is great

if you want to try the stock ICS then you need to flash a 4.0.4 firmware with the help of a software called flashtool..there are many guides which will help you.

[Q] Which was the best working stock SE Gingerbread rom for Xperia Arc S

Let me explain my question. When I got my Xperia Arc S, it was already loaded with .62 firmware. I later upgraded it to ICS, but downgraded since ICS makes phone a second class device. Since I dont have experiences with other older gingerbread rom (version .42 and older) and since i found in some threads, that battery life was better in older versions of gingerbread I have this question for you.
So, which one of the gingerbread versions for Xperia Arc S was the best in terms of battery life, speed, maybe UI design. Which one would you recommend (for those, who had a phone since starting version) and to which one it is still safe to downgrade. Or is this simply the latest GB version 4.0.2.A.0.62‎?
Thanks for all the answers.

Most of the custom ones work okay, try xgamer, it's one of the most popular. Based on my experience it's quite good, stable, fast and batterylife is great

Rooted, de-bloated and battery life-tweaked .69 build is the answer to your questions.

I was only asking about stock roms made by Sony Ericsson - their official firmwares

Question for Destroyedbeauty:
Is there any noticable difference between .62 or .69 firmware? And how to root .69 firmware, since I can't do an OTA to this version, .62 is the latest for me?

.69 is not needed, it is only for Germany, includes only small name change (Gmail to Google Mail) due to legal issues, nothing else.
So .62 is the latest and suits just perfect for me.

Stood on .62, moved some apps from /data/app to /system/app, still have about 130 mb free on internal.Found out Arc S does have some unused space in system partition. I enjoy my fast phone. Only thing bothering is proximity sensor crack, but I'll fix that since phone is still under warranty. Thanks for all the opinions!
