I have tried some of the Rom`s here available for my Xperia ARC (LT15), and the best is JJHybrid Rom.
I have DoomKernel (1,6GHz version) , JJHybrid Rom and the latest GAPS. Everithing runs very smooth, batery drain is very low, the best ROM/Kernel ever. The only problem i have for now (i`m testing it for 3 day now) is the lack of theme manger apk, so i cannot change the theme. I have tried using CM7 and CM9 theme manager apk`s from other Rom`s but no succes. Does anyone has any ideea on hou to get theme manager working on this release?
P.S. : I`m new to this site and i do not have the 10 necesary post, necesary to be able to reply directly on the ROM thread. So please excuse me if if this question is missplaced.
P.S. : I have also searched the forum and have not found anything related to this problem.
Trebuchet Launcher does not support themes. This is why you don't have a theme chooser. If you want themes, get a Launcher that supports themes (ADW, for exmaple, or MIUI Home)
Thanks for the info... have any ideea on how to change launcher ?
P.S. : Mersi !
I am looking for a good rom for my xperia arc. Currently stock ICS 4.04 is installed(not rooted) and i am looking for a rom which provide better performance and better RAM management. I have checked various threads and realized that most of custom rom out there are buggy some of them does not support HDMI some having issues with WIFI etc . So, please suggest me a ram which is best in terms of performance without having these major bugs. I want bravia engine, Xloud, Mega Bass etc phone features which improve its audio/display quality and i donot want all those bloat ware timescape, integrated facebook etc which slows down the phone. Considering this please suggest the best rom. If possible please refer a link/complete guide how to root/unlock bootloader(if required) to install that ram. Any help would be appriciated.

CM9 if you want ICS
CM10 if you want JB (some stuff still doesn't work as it supposed to)
But in my opinion, other than those two I mentioned above, the best custom ROM is debloatwared-supercharged-updated adreno libs-minimally init.d tweaked STOCK ROM with your favorite custom kernel.
Look at my sig for my stock ROM mix and match in general. I also use aeon's lockscreen and smallapps port, custom systemui.apk, cybershot mod, and acid audio engine mod. Stock ROM with that config is more than enough for me. Fast and stable

Kernel and Rom are 2 diff things. The kernel doesnt change wen u flash a rom. The main thing here is that, if u r flashing ics based rom den u shud hav ics based kernel. That means u r now on stock kernel and ultimate hd v2 rom.
If u wanna flash adv stock kernel, there is a link on the ultimate hd thread. You ll hav to use fastboot for flashing kernels.
About lucky patcher, in ultimate v2 there is some prob with it. The dev is going to fix it in ultimate v3.
hello
i want to know how to change stock theme for a stock Rom. i have see lots of tutorials on you tube but nothing was work for me.please if any person knows how to change then reply me i will be highly thankful for that.
and pls dont suggest me to flash a custom rom i flashed lots of custom rom but there is no rom available which is satisfied my need.iwant a smoothness in a rom but i cant find any ROM which provide me a total satisfaction.
i also try to modding a stock rom through android kitchen but that is also useless for me because i dont know how to theme the rom.
currently i used stock 4.3 leaked
and sorry for my bad english
Best option for u is to flash a launcher..my recommendation is Nova launcher or Themer beta launcher.
Themer beta launcher gives u tons of customization option
