thanks Den

So i got the drivers ....
everything is working..but.....
its looping now.... gets to the screen to ask you to touch the android icon to continue..but no reaction.
this is the stable zip i'm using .> update-cm-7.1.0.2-XperiaArc-LT15i-signed.zip
http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=stable&device=anzu
any ideas?

I am no expert in this subject - but had a similar issue when I flashed CM7 a couple of months ago.
Had the same loop on "touch android" screen, but for some odd reason I had luck flashing the .1 stable ROM, which worked perfectly fine.

Thanks Stiker...
but i found that the .1 is stable ..but did you have the lower keyboard problem?
i've also encountered the loosing signal problem too
did you get them working? if so, could y ou possibly tell me?

I used the ROM for about a week or so, and did not encounter any problems, neither with signal or keyboard.
As far as the keyboard goes, have you tried installing other keyboards on the device?
I don't know what might be causing the signal loss problem - is the phone running in GSM only mode?

update >>
uploaded CM 7102 successfully on a rogers ARC....(unlocked bootloader of course)
thank you all ....

[Q] Ramdump and Boot loop error > Pls help !

Hello,
Yesterday, I buy my new i8150 Galaxy Wonder and i root my phone
I install the rom Black Notes Chapter 2 with ClockworkMod.
I used V6 Supercharger with scrip manager.
After the restart everything worked normally and I just installed Viber app.
Being tired, I have not verified if the scrip was properly installed
I go to bed and getting up several hours later, my i8150 galaxy displays a black screen with
RAMDUMP mode
<null>
I will restart my phone and there's only the Samsung logo that flashes every second.
No more access to Clockwormod, the logo flashes too.
The only thing I know to do is put it into Download Mode or RAMDUMP Mode > cause: force upload
So I try flashed an original rom (W I8150XXKK1 Galaxy (EUR)) into Download Mode with Odin Multi Downloader v4.43.
Every step is going well, but when it restarts automatically at the end of the process, the Samsung logo blinking again.
I also tried to reinstall ClockworkMod with Odin Multi Downloader, but still the stage proceeds successfully, always the same problem of flashing samsung logo on startup and no access to ClockworkMod
Help me please, it's been over 5 hours I'm looking for a solution.
THANK YOU
I'm not completely new to android, I trained for over a year with my ZTE Blade with different Rom (CyanogenMod)

Just doing independent research
From 1:10 wonder has this problem...
No kidding, but the characteristic for the phone that possible have a boot loop are always have FORCE CLOSE app and doing RESTART itself
It can fixed but only if we get stock firmware with wipe and boot loader to fix this issue
I will bring this issue to new tread

This is EXACTLY what happened yesterday..and just now I wiped everything in the phone and turned it on. It worked first, but there was a FC on the start or something..and the screen goes black. But I notice that I'm still in the custom ROM I was using (GingerICE). Then I turned it off and and went to CWM. I tried reboot system now, but I was stuck in the samsung logo. Can someone help?
I have the backup of the stock ROM. Is it safe to make the backup?

if you could boot into Recovery screen, you could try:
wipe factory/system, wipe cache, advanced > wipe dalvik.
[careful] i usually format my /system if i get bootloops.
then reflash the ROM. reboot.. in my cases, those steps always worked.
edit: you should checkout the GingerICE with non OC version, the OC may work on some device and some don't, IMO if you're using your droid for daily use, i recommend using the non OC

im facing same issue too here... but i couldn't even access to download mode... tried many times, still failed... help plss...

be sure that you have s-off and bootloader unlocked in the mean time this rom is a port so i suggest you try a normal rom while this rom is still work in progress

[Help/Q] Arc dead after regular shutdown

UPDATE: Please see post #11 for update.
So today I was attending my exams, where I was forced to shut my phone off, which usually isn't a problem. However when I tried to turn it on after the exam, it vibrated for a long time (3s), then nothing happened, I tried again, regular start-up vibrate for 1s, but nothing happens afterwards.
At first I thought it was the battery, so when I came home I tried to turn on my phone using charger only. After a couple of tries it started to turn on screen and show SONY logo, after loading the kernel (blue LED turns on), it turns off again. I've tried to enter the recovery, but it still turns off after 1s in the recovery.
I thought it might be related to the FOTA issue somehow, so I flashed the .ta update from the FOTA thread, however that had no effect on this issue.
It's worth mentioning that I was using the same ROM for quite some time and the only change i made since last reboot was to install premium version of baconreader, install facebook app (from the baconreader company), uninstall that app again and that's it.
Phone Info
Model: Xperia Arc
Kernel: Stock ICS with CWM

Try to wipe data with flashtool
IF LOCKED bootloader, repair with pc companion

So after a couple of days without using the phone (I'm at a LAN party, so I don't really need it right now), I found it being turned on in my backpack since yesterday. Pretty odd, don't know what the reason was though. Haven't tried turning it off and on again yet, need it tomorrow

Update:
So after ½ days of use, the phone froze in some menu, and is unable to boot again.
How do I wipe data with Flashtool? Sorry if it's a stupid question, I can only connect in Flash/Fastboot modes.

I've tried pulling the battery many times but that did not help in my case..

Okay so for other people who might face the same issue and stumble upon this thread through google or so, this is how i fixed it;
Flashed stock firmware,
Flashed stock kernel with CWM,
Used charger to boot the phone into CWM (the phone would turn on if I put it on charger),
Wiped everything I could (battery stats, dalvik, cache, data, system)
Formatted everything I could (/sdcard, /system, /data)
Mounted USB in CWM, transferred Arconium 3.C ROM to it
Flashed Arconium ROM, let it boot.
Phone works fine now
I believe it was a software error, however I don't know why it wouldn't even show SONY logo before, even if I reflashed the kernel (kernel loads before ROM, so should be unaffected iirc).

I have similar problem, but after flash ROM - Arconium 3.c and reboot, just show me logo SONY and that is all, nothing more, my LT18i no boot up.
Andorid 4.0.4, baseband 70, 2.6.32.9-perf [email protected]#1, 4.1.B.0.431, I use stock Kernel (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1680793
).
Where is the problem, please help me to solve this. I ask in this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1700163), but no one help me and I need to solve this today, and it could be similar problem, maybe. Thanks a lot.

I think Arconium 3 not running on kernel 4.0.4 of stock, try to put an alternate kernel

Update
So today I turned my phone off, only to see the same problem appear again.
I've tried everything. FOTA fix, reflashing kernel, system, firmware, clearing data, etc etc, nothing has helped so far.
I can get into fastboot and flashmode without problems, but if I try turning on the phone, it vibrates shortly and the LED light blinks.

Thank you for your reply.
Yes I've tried unrooted stock firmware and kernel. I've also tried relock bootloader and SUS / PC Companion, but they always say that the latests firmware is already installed or that they don't have any firmware for me (when trying repair phone function).
I've unlocked the bootloader again though (just using code from Sony again).

So I let it in the charger over the night (~8hrs) and when I woke up it showed the battery icon, however when I took it out of the charger and flashed the kernel I wanted to use (Anzu KTG), it wouldn't turn on again. I should've just booted it from charging mode
The whole issue seems weird though.
