[Q] arc calendar deleted...

hi xda people,
i've purchased the xperia arc a few weeks ago and i'm stunned by the speed of this little machine. i have a little problem though.
due to the problems with not enough phone memory (i've installed a lot of apps and games) i've chosen to root my phone and delete some applications i didn't need. I didn't actualy delete any of the calendar applications cause i figured i might need them later. somehow though, i've lost the baility to use the app called touch calendar....when i start it there is no problem whatsdoever, but when i want to add an event i get the error 'you have no calendars.'.
my question is simple: does anyone have an idea what i might have deleted? and how do i get it back? if there's no way to individualy reinstall the specific apps or programs using the calendar (sync maybe?) is there a way to get the original xperia arc ROM from some place, reinstall it and fix the problems?
any help is appreciated, I really need my calendar app
greetz,
Flexikon.

Bump, same problem here :S:S

try this

or just try via SEUS, and after that try to root it again.

OP, this is not a place to ask questions. There is a Q&A section for that...FYI.

Best thing to do would be to re flash your firmware using flashtool, with the ' wipe user data' flash switched off.. That way your get new system software, but don't lose any of the apps you've installed.

[Q] Home button not function after flash

Just flashed to DOOMKernel v8 and the home button is not functioning, tried
clearing the cache and even factory reset, but home button is still not functioning, tried the button test in the recovery mode with response, what else i can do to make it function again? flashing the 4.0.2.A.0.42 FW again? or any other plug-ins or modules to install? many thanks

Found out that the reason is removing the SetupWizard... anyone can provide me the file? Thanks

Same happened to me. I did a re-flash with the image and its working now

It happens when you delete setup wizard from /system/app/. Push it back and H/W buttons will function again.

I might be flashing, and I have a question, will this same thing happen if you only freeze setupwizard and not remove it?

Are you sure it has to do with setup wizard? I've removed that app on both my phones with no issues

Happened to me also, but only after I factory reset the phone to give it too a friend, also when calling the phone it auto hangs up on the caller. Trying to reflash it atm to get it sorted.

[Q] my Xperia play stops working.

hi, im new to this and i desperately need some help. My xperia play stops working, i think i know why i just dont know how to fix it. my phone is rooted with stock rom/kernel, sorry i dont know anything about it, but my firmware is .42 android version 2.3.4. I uninstalled the digital clocks and replaced it with Animated Weather Clock&Widget(AWC&W) then converted it into system app using titanium backup. I wiped the data of the AWC&W and uninstalled it 'coz im gonna replace it with another widget, then suddenly my phone went all black. Everytime i reboot my phone it always stops at the sony ericsson logo and doesnt go any further. is there anyway i could fix it? i hope this doesnt concern any hardware repair. thanks a lot!

Just restore it using PC Companion or flash it with flashtool

lol! i was just about to say that. i already fixed it.. sorry for the hassle.. and thanks, i love this site!

[Q] Home button not functional

After i unlocked by bootloader using the sony ericsson method on my unbranded xperia play the home button no longer functions but it does work.
I can "wake" the phone with it it just wont return to the homescreen. i have not flashed the kernel or rom and i only deleted the junk game apps that come preinstalled.
any way i can fix this?

Don't know if you can fix it but there is a app on Play store can help called Button Savior may help?:fingers-crossed:

Try the pc companion repair function to reinstall a fresh Rom, it may sort out your problem or flashing a custom Rom what's based on gingerbread from the development thread

I don't have a friend who works at a phone repair store.
Can you tell me how he fixed it? I have exactly the same problem, and can't seem to find a solution.

Download a root browser (u don't need root just to browse around)
And go to system/app and look for SEMCSetupWizard, that apk on first boot allows the device to use the home button (like after original setup wizard)

Carbon backup issue

Hi, I'm trying to make carbon backup working but I find an annoying issue. The app asks me to leave the "pc backup password" blank. I've already done this. And set it up to a default one "0000" and the reset again. but nothing works. Can you folks make it work? I have an Xperia S with the .55 non-rooted.
Thank you very much

Unfortunately, I cannot even access my Xperia S with Stock ROM non-rooted via Carbon as it changes back automatically from PTP to MTP-Mode after a second. I can even see it changing back. It might be the process com.sonyericsson.extras.liveware but I don't know how to get rid of it. Maybe anyone knows?
Thanks a lot!
