Asking for Kernel name not kernel version.
Stock kernel (which firmware version) or custom kernel (FXP, Lupus or Arc Fusion etc., ) .

problems with LuPuS wifi
I have a Xperia Arc LT15i unlocked and running CWM 6.0.1.5
I was following all the instructions in:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1885559
LuPuS-JBv3-ARC&S.img
WiFi-FIX-LuPuS-JBv3-ARC&S.zip
1) flash LuPuS JBv3 using fastboot
2) in CWM wipe data/factory reset, cash partition, dalvik
3) install SnapSeries CAMP Anzu v02_Si and reboot (lets me move the wifi switch but doesnt stay on)
4) install WiFi-FIX-LuPuS-JBv3-ARC&S and reboot (won't let me move the wifi switch)
5) install CIFS-JBv2-ARC&S in terminal emulator (failed: exec format error)
SnapSeries CAMP released v3 today and I've tried all of the above again and I still can't get the wifi working.
Any ideas?

Did you try flashing the rom then flashing wifi fix.Do not restart after flashing rom,just do it at the same time.
But there is one more thing,does this ROM support this kernel you have flashed?

In fact. Ice Cream Sandwich IS the bug. (/troll)
I had the same issue. I figured out that. Turning Wifi-N off (on router settings, turn on only wifi B/G) fixes the problem.
If it doesn't work. Buy a new router or go back to gingerbread.
So, I went back to gingerbread. (And I have a free router)

Thanks for your reply Pren22. I've had no luck with flashing the rom and wifi fix.
I tried flashing the kernal that was on the rom without success. It said that LuPuS was recommended so I tried that too.

Hi, welcome to the forums.
I flashed the same kernel and ROM today on the same phone, so hopefully I can help
so you successfully flashed the xarc kernel yes?
and successfully installed the ROM?
can you confirm, is your current baseband 72?
and did you also install the secondary file for I-Scream 12xs after you flashed the rom?

I have problem too. Now wifi and bluetool don't work. Can't charge too.

Sorry for my bad english

You need to flash /sdcard/ -=I-Scream_12xs=- update to get everything works
If you have lt15i, and already flash 4.0.4 .431 version from flashtool. You should flash 4.0.3 .562 version. Because 431 create a large Vendor Partition, you'll lack system partition to install this rom.
why didn't you discuss this in the rom thread?
instead of making new threads?

[Q] I can not install custom roms on arc with locked bl

I have a arc with locked bl and I have rooted it and installed cwm.
But when I try to install custom roms like Ultimate HD 2, Jelly sandwitch 7.4 or Xperia pureness 13 everything goes right except installing.
The installation of rom takes only 2 to 3 seconds and it finishes successfully but when I reboot my phone, it stucks at sony logo.
Normally installation of a rom takes minimum 30 seconds but in my phone it takes only 2 to 3 seconds.
What should i do?

Ensure that the custom rom you are installing is based on your current firmware..i.e. If you are in .42 or .58 GB install custom rom for GB, if you are in .431 ICS install custom rom based in .431. Ultimate HD, Jellysandwich 7.4 are based on .587 ICS. I have installed these on my arc s w/ locked bootloader with no problem..just be sure to do the ff via cwm:
Wipe cache partition
Wipe data/factory reset
In advance wipe dalvik cache
In mount and storage wipe cache, wipe data and wipe system
Install rom via install zip from sd card
Also make sure that you downloaded the rom completely, verify if the mb you downloaded is the same as the mb indicated in the link.
I recommend you try the ultimate hd v2 by jader since cwm is integrated in it.

My arc s (LT18a) , android is rooted with the 2.3.4 kernel 2.6.32.9-perf SENCUser SEMCHost @ # 1 (4.0.2.A.0.42). What ROM fits in my case?
Depends on if you have your bootloader locked or not. If it's locked, get either Jelly sandwhich or ultimate HD (They're both pretty much exactly the same)

Stop giving wrong info! If he's on GB 2.3.4 he has first to install an ICS stock rom before he tries that. Unlocked bootloader? Do you really think?

Have not tried this version personally, only the developer's earlier GB Rom. I hope this works for you.

Anyway .587 ICS has a lot of custom roms working for locked bootloader so you may consider upgrading your firmware.

Please guide me since I'm kinda newbie to this of unlocked bootloaders and kernels :/ (I'm trying to install PACman rom and followed the FAQ guide but...)
EDIT: Forgot to add, my PLAY is an r800a(i) GSM btw, I have to take off the SDcard to enter to the Kernel menu, idk if this is normal

After you flash the Rom reboot the phone and just let it fully boot. After that you can go back to CWM and flash the WiFi modules and other add-ons
You need to boot into the kernel's recovery and set it to jb mode or ics depending on your rom. Then make sure your rom and gapps don't exceed the system partition size, which it most likely did if you flashed the full gapps package as well.
The default recovery for the lupus jb kernel is TWRP, if you load into another CWM recovery it most likely did not flash to the correct partition arrangement that lupus kernel use therefore the rom can't boot.

So go into cwm and wipe cache,data,delvick and try rebooting then

These are the steps I did
1.- Flash the 4.0.2.A.0.58 Enhanced (2.3.4 firmware)
2.- Flash the LuPuSv8 JB Kernel via flashtools
3.- Take out the SDcard (I can't access to kernel menu without taking it out)
4.- Access Kernel menu then go into recovery mode
5.- Wipe data/cache/davlik
6.- Flash p.a.c.man jb
7.- Reboot
And then it bootloops and stays like that (i left it alone and it stayed like that for about 20 or 30 minutes)
I also wiped data/cache and davlik after flashing the rom, but got the same results, maybe I need a vendor unlocked firmware like in Turbo Kernel? I will try that...
Edit: Flashed the vendor unlocked firmware then wiped cache and data then installed the PACman rom but got bootloop again, maybe I should try with another kernel...

Do as above but after step 5 you need to go to mounts & storage and format Data/Cache & System (IMPORTANT DO NOT FORMAT ANYTHING ELSE):good:
Then flash p.a.c.man JB

I flashed the FTF with unlocked partitions played with the phone for about 30 secs, then flashed kernel, went to kernel menu then formated system, data, cache and davlik via CWM then flashed the rom, but that ended in bootloop, did the same with turbo kernel and it worked.

[Q] Cant install custom rom on X play R800i

Hi,
Hopefully someone can help. First off, when I try to unlock bootloader, It says it's unlocked. I can root my phone through flashtools with no problems also. I tried the ICS and JB roms with a lupus kernel as described on Youtube. I follows the instructions to a T and when I install the rom from the sd card, it never installs,...well it does install as in it goes through the installation procedure. It just reboots to the recovery mode after the installion instead of the rom etc to ( the lupus or doomlord recov mode depending on the rom). I have tried different roms and downgraded to ginger 2.3.2 ( I am currently on 2.3.4) but there is no change. Any help would be great thanks ...

Hi,
I bought the phone second hand. When I tried to unlock bootloader, it says its unlocked already...must have been done by previous owner
Did you follow all the instructions for instlling a ROM???
1. Factory reset
2. Format-wipe /cache (it says formattting /cache when doing factory reset, but do it anyway)
3. Format /system (its on mounts and storage menu)
4. Wipe dalvik cache (its on advanced menu)
5. Fix battery/wipe battery stats. This depends on the recovery, but is the same thing...
6. Fix permissions. I think this is what you are doing wrong of missed out.
Btw, if you can enter fastboot mode and flash custom kernels, you have unolocked bootloader

How are you flashing your kernels... via Flashtool in fastboot mode, or using the windows (if you're using windows) CMD and the fastboot command on Android SDK??? 'Cause maybe something's wrong with the kernel or the rom Zip you're using...

Xperia Play boot loops every time something is flashed via CWM

Hi, I've been having some problems with my Xperia Play getting stuck in a boot loop after flashing anything, or restoring a backup in CWM. This includes mods, like Adrenoboost, and the NXT Lockscreen, to themes. I have the Xperia Play R800x with an unlocked bootloader (via unlock code from Sony) and I'm using stock 2.3.3 Gingerbread, with the stock Kernel. I boot CWM by hotBooting LuPuS with Fastboot. I'm not really sure what to do because I really want to install these mods, and because restoring my nandroid backups also gets it stuck in a bootloop, I have to reflash the stock .ftf with FlashTool and reroot it every time.

Hi. Not all mods are 100% compatible with stock ROM so you should use a custom one. Many custom ROMs are better than the stock one.

My only problem is, when I flash other ROMs they don't work, unless I also flash a custom Kernel. Anytime I flash a custom kernel, WiFi never connects, even if I flash the WiFi modules. It gets stuck at Obtaining IP Address, then stops.

There's are some Gingerbread based roms that work also with the stock kernel and won't give you any problem with wifi (personal experience).
Try the gbx_play v3-rebuild here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1897634
Or the Gin2kitkat here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631144
Try to flash one of these and let us know
Remember that before you flash a ROM you MUST make a wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache and wipe Dalvik Cache (in advanced options).

Or the Gin2kitkat here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1631144
Try to flash one of these and let us know
Remember that before you flash a ROM you MUST make a wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache and wipe Dalvik Cache (in advanced options).

I do wipe the data and cache. I know how to install ROMs, I've done it with TWRP on my Kindle Fire, but I get stuck in a boot loop every time. I'll try these ROMs and see how they go.

I did a Factory Reset on CWM, then flashed Gin2KitKat, and wiped the cache and dalvik cache and it's stuck on the Android boot animation. It's been sitting there for like 10 minutes or so now. Flashtool does recognize it though.

It worked fine as soon as I hotBooted it with LuPus. I'm gonna try installing the other ROM I wanted and hotBooting LuPus
Strange, I have the opposite problem: lupus doesn't boot any ROM for me, excepting ICs ones.
In fact, to install a GB ROM I always have to flash first the stock rom and fw, and then flash the ROM with a custom recovery. Anyway by "hot booting" you mean custom recovery right?

No, what I'm doing is using Fastboot to boot the phone with the kernel, without flashing it, to test it out. As soon as you shut the phone off, and turn it back on, it boots with whatever kernel is flashed on it

That's what I mean with custom recovery :laugh: (don't confuse with custom kernel).
When I had stock kernel I would boot LuPuS just for CWM, but I'll hotboot kernels to see how well they run

So here's what you need to do, since you want stock and and fastbootalot for recoveries y don't you download xperia play clockwork mod app? It's version 4 or something like that don't use xparts it don't work with our Verizon plays since you have root this will install recovery for you to flash Roms mods etc
I'll edit later with a link to the thread that has the clockwork mod app install that MAKE A NANDROID before you flash anything it helps worse case you hotboot lupus to restore your nandroid you have then reboot and guess what stock 2.3.3 Rom and kernel

No I got everything to work fine. I have LuPuS flashed on, and I'm using the xElite Gamer ROM with no problem.
