Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich is now released!!!

Just a short update that ICS source is now officially released.
Now, it's the matter of time we will be able to test the taste of Ice Cream Sandwich.
Hope that CM9 for Xperia Play will be available soon.
Here's the link to ICS source

Best ICS Rom & Kernel for Gaming in Arc S

i am currently running Ice Cream Pureness rom with stock ics kernel....but i tried to play real racing 2 which had very choppy gameplay....i initially thought that maybe the Arc S hardware isnt capable...but i read somewhere that it might be down to what rom & kernel i use. Is this true? If so, then what rom & kernel combination would be the best for full on performance?

Revert back to GB for ultimate gaming pleasure.

I play real racing 2 with arconium 4 with KTG kernel, runs fine, but the game ONLY crash everytime I try to play the H2 NRGEE cup, also sometimes the menu lags

well...i am using jj's hybrid rom with stock kernel....the game ceased to be choppy but now it crashes & goes to homescreen without warning....which didnt really happen before

GB is not dead. i find GB more battery friendly and stable for playing HD games and besides there's not much difference ics and gb its only the numbers.

Not only the Numbers.
Theres a BIg Difference in ICs & gb

100% true story

Or is it?

Try CM10 unofficial

Any good roms for Xperia arc with stock kernel? I can't unlock my bootloader, so I'm bound to use the stock kernel.

From my experience with Pureness V10/11 its always laggy with games.
If you don't care about graphical user interface , definitely JJ hybrid rom is great (fast - compatible with games - has ROM control as well) ,few bugs though like wifi hotspot http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1537717
If you care about having nice user interface with reasonable game performance with lots of free ram available you can try Jelly sandwich http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1836993 or the Remix http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1884958
For the Kernel i always advice to use stock kernel in order to avoid battery drain issues.

I'm using ArcKnigt Kernel RC 3.4.
I agree with you on Pureness V10 always laggy with hq games.
I tried JJ's Hybrid rom but i guess i am a UI person and changed myselft into Jelly Sandwich 6.2 with lots of free ram. Also i can play Real Racer, Agent Dash etc witout lag. :good:
But for a game performance i guess JJ > Jelly Sandwich 6.2 for my observe.
Didnt test Jelly Sandwich 7.0. Maybe that one a bit faster than 6.2 who knows?

definitely jj's hybrid rom with Archnight Kernel 3.5.1 . played most of the games without any problems on this rom.

i always recomande xperia ice bean 4.2n!

Try Xgamer 1.6...Its based on GB thot...Best gaming experience , lots of free ram...Gb 2.3.7 based...Ics is not meant for gaming mate...Understand this..and Gb is not dead yet...

GB is better than ICS in case of playing game, but if you like ICS, choose advanced stock kernel ,jelly sandwich or Ultimate HD 2.0 Rom.

The latest CM10 is amazing

Not even slightly true.
That's why: http://developer.sonymobile.com/201...ical-differences-between-gingerbread-and-ics/

I've Jelly Sandwich 8.0 and it's very fast.

I've tried xgamer 1.6 on xperia arc GB .64,used doomkernelv22 and had battery issues,my battery drained every 3 minutes 1%.So i don't know if that was problem with my phone and me only but i don't think xgamer ROM is ideal.
Till now i used GB .42-Arconium 8.2-doomkernel v22 and it was perfect,with games,smooth no lag,very,very stable.But...now i'm on GB.62 Stock rom-doomkernel v22 snd some new apps from xperia s,didn't try gamings yet but one is sure,GB rocks with gaming,ICS on the other hand,sucks.

[Q] Do you know what is "Perfection"

(Firstly, sorry for my English, I do not trust google translation)
(Secondly, I'm not a developer (until tonight))
perfection
noun /pəˈfek.ʃən//pɚ-/
A rom that is based on cyanogenmod 10 and it is modded in such a way that it looks like Sony gave us an official Jelly Bean update.
I'm not sure if I'm explaining myself clearly enough...
Cyanogenmod 10 base.
NXT apps.
NXT Themes apk. (The one that changes the NXT background in settings and SMS apps etc.)
Original Xperia Arc Launcher.
JB Status bar with NXT icons.
Roboto ?
Imagine, the smoothness of project butter + most beautiful UI in android world ?
I'm ready to learn to make such a rom. Will someone team up with me ?
Thanks for reading.

JB Camera

Hey, guys, if there any chance that if someone will port Xperia Z JB to 2011 Xperias we will have Sony's Camera in JB Roms?

Or is there any chance that we will have good camera in JB Roms for 2011 Xperias?

No, most likely no.
People have been trying to ask Sony to release camera libs to 2011 Xperia devices, although I am quite sure, that Sony will no longer update those devices with JB libs, so no much progress will be done.
Unless somewhere out there are some real developers, who can create newer camera libs to work fully with Jelly Bean.
