[Q] Update or NO - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone,
I have Sony ericsson xperia arc S. Today when installed PC Companion it asked me to update to ICS ?
I was looking on google and saw that some people said that update is good, in other hand some said that it's bad because of lagg ?
Android Version : 2.3.4
Build Number : 4.0.2.A.0.42

Man this is Xperia S,P,U,SOLA,ARCO S forum
Not Arc forum
Next time please read first

Oh, no. I didn't saw that "O" in arcO :S What should i do now? Should i post in right forum, or wait to moderators to move this thread ?

My mother has a Arc S and it is on the latest ics 4.0.4. and it works good. Yes sometimes it lags but my xperia S does that also sometimes. I dont mind.
My advice is: just update, and if it is to laggy for you then you can always flash GB back (search arc s forum how to.)
I hope this helps?

it's not arco s, it's acro s

@OP
In the future you can just report your post and a mod like myself will move the thread to the appropriate forum or section.

I can make decision, that's not a problem.
I wanted to see if someone from this forum have ICS and how does it work ?

Well, what I can tell, on my Xperia Pro, when I updated to ICS, it was running great until I installed many apps (which were running great on GB), because of ICS using more RAM, then I had to use some auto task killers, and so on.. But as power323f said, you can always flash back.

Like this Sticky in General titled ICS GENERAL- For discussion on the ICS update

I had 4.0.4 before i changed it for a custom rom. Still, for arc s, it doesnt lag very much and for the extra features on the ICS I would probably update it

Wait 48 hours before pushing the thread, you'll get an answer and at 9am most of us sleep I guess so we can't post stuff.
Be patient and don't get rude!

Hehe... Well i came from HTC sensation section.. It was 24 hrs active and i was adapted to get replies in within 30 mins...
I thought xda is international site and probably active 24 hrs a day... I didn't realize Xperia section follows time zone...

Lol... Are you serious? I should be asking Sony to send me camera application of Arc... ?
Don't know how u became a moderator of XDA who doesn't know enough about it...?
This Xda community is development sharing and much better support site than the vendors themselves... I have never contacted vendors for solving my problems as they don't have solution to my problems regarding development and they are not obliged to do so...
P.S.. When i see someone in trouble, i try my best to help him if i know the solution to his problem... that's just ethics... I won't reply him with " i m sorry, i know the solution but i am not obliged to help u"..lol
I thanked everyone who tried to help me, so please don't teach me that..

Really had no intention to offend anyone... I just meant HTC Sensation section was very active compared to Xperia sections... probably sensation is used more worldwide compared to Xperia arc which is more used in European countries... That's why i used to get support irrespective of time...
Back to Topic:
Anyone here knows which lib files are concerned with Xperia Arc camera?..
I actually have Xperia Ray but the problem is it's lacking autoflash.. I believe Xperia Ray has same camera as Arc and same led flash... So why it's not an option to have autoflash in Ray?
Maybe if i manage to successfully port Xperia Arc camera and lib to Ray, we might as well have autoflash enabled...

ICS rollout stopped??

hi there, hope im in the right place but looking for some info but i cant seem to find any from the horses mouth so thought id ask someone in the know here.
i currently have a 2011 xperia arc and have been eagerly awaiting the ics update, my numbers not in their klist yet but whats doing my head in is the fact the keep updating their blog but no releases have been issued since 31/05/2012?
has android/sony stopped rolling out does anyone know? because they cannot seem to give any answers?
many thanks
wait...
Just wait
The update will be out soon~
why dont you just use some custom rom's o.o?
on Sony Mobile site they are saying it will be released soon.
I'm just using JJRom anyway, working fine, based on Sony ICS 4.04
Have a bit of patience. It's only rolled out to a few places as of yet. We've waited for many months for the ICS update. Surely a few weeks ain't that big a deal.

I'm too much of a noob to try it and to be honest I probably wouldn't know where to start.
I based my op on the assumption that the list hadn't been updated for days,it has now but, my si is still not there :-( lok

From what I gather the xperia S and SL are exactly the same, just the SL is overclocked from sony.

[Q] Port Rom

Hi peeps,
I found an awesome Rom, but it's only for Xperia Ray / Arc / Arc S...
I'm talking about the ZellyCream Rom made by gagan.u20
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2151682
I was wondering if it was possible to port this Rom for our XS ?
I tried it on my old Xperia Ray and I would love to have it for my XS...
My Simcard reader, bluetooth and wifi are dead on my Ray, and ofc, XS is much better than Ray =D
Thanks in advance for answers,
Have a nice day.

Battery life looks very impressive... There days...
I didn't read all but it's seems that it's based on GB?!
I don't like that (if it is). That's step back.

Firstly, you have to post in correct section.
This is not where you do it.
Next, you need to do a research a bit.
You should have read this thread and then decide on your own.
