help !!traouble with xperia arc s after upgrading to ICS 4.04

guys,,i really need your help i got a sony ericson xperia arc s upgraded to ICS 4.0.4, i followed all the instructions provided by sony support before upgrading,i can say the process was very smooth and done successfully but when i played deadspace,shadow gun,riptidegp and n.o.v.a 3 ,it crashes or forced close,even the very simple apps like dictionaries crashes/stucked. sometimes i need to remove the battery just to reboot my phone so i can use it again,these games works perfectly when i still have the gingerbread os..by the way i use pc companion for upgrading..i really don't know what to do i wish i didn't upgrade my phone to ICS...it makes my phone a crap! can somebody help me regarding this?any helpful advice will be appreciated..thanks!!

dude i really recommended you to flash a custom 4.0.4 kernel..and you will definitely see the difference..well gaming is not tat good on ICS..but some custom kernel makes games fly on ICS..check them out..
first i would advice you to try arconium 4.0 as it is the best custom stock ROM

another good rom is KA20, but arconium still the best, fastest and less bugs

just flash arconium..it is pre-rooted..if you want even better performance then flash custom kernel too..Xarc and ArcKnight are equally good

Best ROM and kernel for Arc?

Hey all,
I've just bought one of these and I'm waiting for it to arrive.
In the meantime, I'm looking for custom ROMs and kernels to use but there are just so many.
The reason I bought one is because I bricked my previous phone. I'm currently using a really old phone and intend to use the Arc as soon as I get it and I probably won't have a lot of time to do testing of my own.
What I'm looking for is a really stable ROM that has good performance and very little bloat installed. As for the kernel, whatever people think is the best will do. I probably won't be overclocking the phone (most likely underclocking) as the main thing I want from my phone is good battery life.
Thanks for any input!

jjHybrid Rom 3.2 and Arcknight kernel 3.3 no overclock.

Jelly Sandwich with XArc kernel. It's [~xDevilCharged~] and during playing 3D games home screen appears blazing fast! Try it out!

There is no best.
You have to search and find yourself, what features are important and what not, what do you want to use it for and if you want GB or ICS.
There is no best for everyone.

So my phone arrived and it's been updated to 4.1.B.0.587.
The bootloader is locked and I want to keep it that way just because I don't want to mess anything up.
I was wondering am I able to installed the locked bootloader version of JJ's Hybrid ROM 3.2 Stable on 4.1.B.0.587?
Thanks.
PS - I would have asked this on the development thread, but I don't have enough posts to post there.

You must root your phone using this method
Then you can proceed to JJ's Hybrid

best kernel is the stock kernel
and the best rom is the stock rom with all bloatwares manually removed, manually tweaked,manually supercharged,manually installed Mods...
install watever u want and delete watever u dont want..simple!!

Had been using MIUI (Chi Ver) for a month and then gave up.
JJ's HYBRID ROM v3.2 is good but I had to install the AnyLocale.apk and JAYS_Headset_Control.apk to make it works.
Been using Xperia Ice Cream Pureness (Build 10) with .431 then .587 for a week and love it.
Love them both because of the on screen button.

ArcKnight 3.5 kernel goes along with IC.Xperiance well. Its fast and great for beginners ! links below

JJ's and CM9, which one you would like a bit more ?
I did tried several ROMs but never the CM series before :silly:

..

If you don't care about graphical user interface ,defintely 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 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

thank you bro
one more thing
is this rom compatible with my lt18a and is it better than the stcok android 4

i dont have an idea of the rom u have linked up, but if you want any recommended rom in XDA dev section go for JJ hybrid or Xperia pureness rom or jelly sandwich its becuase its supported here and you can find all support you need int respective rom threads.
speaking of diffrences from your stock rom these are higly tweaked more fast and stable roms . just go through the OP of each rom for thier features and you will know what im saying.
and if your bootloader is unlocked use LUpus or Archnight kernels with these roms to tweak battery and performance or ur arc s.
:good:

i agree with u but i love Jellybean ( original , not combo between Jelly and ICS).

Any ROM with Paranoid settings which allow you to set dpi for single apps is awesome. I have compiled paranoid android 2.55 and put link in thread in dev section of you wanna try. Camps is also pretty awesome but my phone got really sluggish with that so I use regular PA.

If You are looking for GB based Roms then X-Gamer v1.6, this will give you an Internal Mem of 355MB, and RAM of nearly 240MB after installation and its stable too. If ICS based Roms then JelleySandwich 7.4. its stable (by stable i mean after installation everything works).
The above Roms i have tested it on LT15i with LB though.

new rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2168609
that new one is beautiful:good:

Cm10 based ROM: RacingBean v3.0 ! Very very Fast and stable ! :good:

We're not allowed to ask this kind of questions. Every rom is good. But it depends on ones needings.
Gb rom is always preferred if u want smoothness.
For interface you must try ics or jb..
Press thanks if I helped.

I just tried using SmartXperia ROM with KTG Kernel on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1748635&highlight=keyboard
Some said it was the most battery efficient ROM, but I tried it because of it's simple instruction and low risk
So far its working fine on my LT15 xperia with minor bugs

Its all about preference use GB rom if you want everything working. Use doomkernel for GB roms its more stable and reliable.

Don't forget you need to unlock your bootloader to flash a kernel

When you want to use a gingerbread Rom use the lupus kernel. This kernel is newer, so it is more stable and you have a better performance.
