Arconium ICS 2 got music player buttons on lock screen and status bar... Also is clean, super fast and stable

Arconium 2.0 is great!

There is also KA Ice Cream Sony but KA15 wasn't really good. But the brand new KA16 seems to be great!

It is Rooted.

May give it a whirl then! Please ignore my ignorance but are there any major omissions? Such as video, hdmi...?

Until now, no known Issues.

Because my sim is locked to orange I can't unlock my bootloader! Refuse to pay to unlock it! :-(

Dilemma
Hi, I'm currently undecided between Mooded's ICS rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1526717 and Arconium ICS http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1515148.... Any advice?? Or any suggestions for other roms?? Am looking for something stable and fast and..well.. generally awesome lol...Any help is appreciated... They both seem quite the same based on what im reading.. Mooded's ICS can update OTA? how big would the updates be?? when it says OTA does it download the whole package again??

JJ Hybrid
I would suggest JJ hybrid Rom as the Xperia Launcher ROMS become slow with time. I have been using JJ for quite sometime and I am pretty happy with it. Make sure you first do a FULLWIPE before installing this ROM. It has given me great battery life and unparalleled performance. Just try it and I am sure you wont regret it.
1) Install latest Sony ICS baseband via flashtool.
2) Install stock Sony Kernel + CWM recovery.
3) Do a full wipe: i.e.Factory Reset, clear cache, clear Dalvik Cache and then format system.
4) Install JJ.
Make sure you sync all your contacts with Google before installing.

I would say Arconium ICS...its smooth..it has same look as stock..i m sure u will be satisfied with this ROM

If you care about games, ICS is not great with them, I tried Arconium ICS and while being a great ROM I wasn't able to play Temple Run, that's a common problem with every ICS rom from what I've read
So, if you don't care about games, go straight for it xD

Thanks guy for your reply =) so i installed Mooded's ICS rom anyway and I'm kinda liking it.
@romiltherock
Hi, thanks for the suggestion. Can i know what's your antutu benchmark score and the configurations you use? kernel, cpu freq, etc etc...
@arpith.fbi
I've tried arconium and comparing it to mooded i think i'll go with mooded.. mooded offer update OTA (i havent tried) and also included notification bar toggle, 3 launchers to choose from , custom themes, battery mod, etc etc.. also, using the same config @1.4Ghz, performance governor, moving from arconium to mooded gave me +100 in Antutu.
@Shark107
The games issue seems to be on the game's devs..so i'll just wait for the update from Imangi. ICS is so much "smarter" lol.. besides games gets boring but not customizing your phone. it never gets old lol

KA 17.2
I'm Using KA 17.2 atm, KA16 had several errors where you get a frozen screen when using browser or playstore.
Now with 17.2 my phone is terrible slow, dont know if I did anything wrong -.-
Next thing to try for me is Cyanogen ...

Modded ics is best one i am using it with 1 ghz n lagfree profile
No lag awsome performance
Battery drain in sleep mode is too low 1 % in 2 hours or 3 hourz

For that reason I have stock GB .62 rom, rooted, added launcher tweak into build.prop and moved some applications from /data/app to system/app, at the moment I have about 170 mb free space my Arc S, and it is running smooth without any problems, without anything missing or not working.
With all those wishes, I don't find any other way.

Hi,
in past two months I have tried most of the popular ROMs. First of all I would not recommend you to use custom ROMs with locked bootloader. For some reason even if a ROM is supposed to work with locked BL I would experience bootloops or other problems. After I have unlocked it the bootloops dissapered. If you decide to unlock it first thing to try is CM10 just to see how jellybean looks. It works great with no problems but the camera is 480p and I dont think that is a compromise anyone should make. But still go for it just to see what we're missing out on . Of ICS rROMS I can recommend Ultimate HD (you will need to temper with it to enable XLoud) and JJ Hybrid (for stock ICS look).
Performance wise the GB is the best for Arc S. Even though the benchmark results were the same for GB/ICS/JB when I've tested it, if you are gaming GB will give you the best performance. Also camera and sound work best. If it doesnt bother you to use the older version of android go with GB. If you unlock the BL then you can use Doomkernel for GB and OC and UV the phone for better performance and battery life. There is Setxperia app that works great with Doomkernel in GB but gives me problems with Rush kernel so I cant use it in ICS.
You can go with the stock .42, root, delete anything you don't need. And update to .62. That alone would give you the best possible performance you can get out of Arc. If you unlock the bootloader then you can overclock it to 1600 MHz and undervolt at least -50mV whitch gave me about 3 days of battery life and faster phone.

[Q] (FXP) Constant freezes and restarts

Hi everybody. It's my first time posting on xda so forgive me maybe.
I'm currently using a LT5i on FXP CM10 ROM. I was using the FXP 201 till the previous day and I saw FXP 205 released. Decided to flash the FXP 205, I expected another good stuff for my phone and here came the trouble: It constantly freezes and restarts for no reason even though I did exactly in the instruction. This error is something I am not familiar with and Googling stuffs didn't help either.
If anyone knows how to fix this please help. Also, I'm a totally noob so please don't give me hard time understanding dev stuffs
Thanks.

Which kernel are you on?
sent via XPERIA™ Arc

FXP kernel of course. They included the kernel in the ROM zip

Wipe everything and reinstall ROM again

Thanks but I tried it already. I'm thinking of flashing Fusion kernel

What Bugs on CM10 and CM 10.1 [Xperia S.LT26i.Nozomi]

Hello to everyone. I'm on XZX2, but i think that it is very slow, not laggy, but slow. I tried both of cm 9 and cm10, but never cm 10.1
My questions are:
1) What bugs are in CM10 and what bugs are in CM10.1? (Like HDMI, 1080p video recording, FM Radio..)
2) I can use nova kernel 1.6 with cm10, but Can I use its with CM 10.1?
3) I love cm10.1's camera app, what rom (FXP, Cyano, Opensemc...) do you suggest to me?
Thank you all.

ps: i know that in the end of March/April will roll out Jelly bean, but i want to try 4.2.2 also..

Go and try, make a backup before... U got nothing to lose.. I am on cm10.1 open semc 04.. I think it is the best rom...

1)FXP's CM10 have no bug in it's latest stable ROM ,OpenSEMC's CM10.1 have some problem with FM Radio.(but it doesn't matter
2)You can't use nova kernel on CM10.1
3)All 4.2 ROM's camera are the same(Slim, CM10.1 ,PAC).
If you want a ROM that very stable, try FXP's CM10
If you want a ROM that high customation, try PAC (19 based on CM10(4.1.x) ,20 or 21 based on CM10.1(4.2.x)
If you want a ROM that daily use, try Slim Rom or OpenSEMC's CM10.1
sorry for my poor english :<

The main problem on cm 10.1 is HDMI and Fm radio is Not working perfectly.Most of the cm 10.1 rom is not battery user friendly.But as I think and as I have got battery is good on cm 10.Both of the rom are not yet stable.Many times rebooting by itself.Networking problem on both cm10 and cm10.1

Does anyone of you have issue with the mobile data network? I can't seem to get it working, but everything else looks/works quite nice on latest OpenSEMC.

Does anyone knows if anyone of those ROMS has camera support? I mean fullHD 1080p video and 12mp photos? And if there is support for 3.4 kernel ?
Sent from my LT26i using xda app-developers app

In general, the main bugs are related to network, sometimes it disconnects itself and have to disable and reenable data traffic. Moreover, 1080p and FM Radio is not working in most of cases, but in general, CM10-10.1 ROMs are very stable.

Finally some one who uses the Q&A.yes it should support AOKP/CM themes.

I'm thinking test your ROM, but whats is the kernel included in the zip file?
Lupus v11? 3.X Kernel?
The main post said dont work JB Camera (4.2.2). There is other camera app included in ROM (CM camera 4.1.2 perhaps) or we must install other third party camera app.

setup wizard pac-man
Hey I flashed the inkludet kernel and did a full wipe and installed the ROM. The Rom boots but then the Setup Wizard does not respond and I cant set upp my phone. A tested this tvice and then re downloadet the rom but got the same results.Is it only me or are others having the same problem Im comming from a nother JB 4.2.2. rom if that helps. I realy want to try this rom and a realy like your work, been using lupus kernel for a long time now. Thanks

No its nAa kernel as I havent started on a 3.x kernel. Of course there is legacy camera like in cm10 included in the R no need to flash extras.

Others seem to be having no problems. Perhaps its something to do with gapps. I'm assuming you used full gapps. Try the mini or light version of gapps. So long as u done your full wipes I can't see any other reason. Maybe try flash ROM let it boot then go back to recovery and flash gapps.
Edit - OK so apparently light gapps just causes FC'ing I'll link to other gapps when I'm home.

i flashed this ROM with full Gapps in Xperia Arc S, and it's working really fine, until now had twice random reboots, but that's not really a problem to me.
other than that the ROM is awesome. :good:
Q: is it okay if i use Lupus JBv11 Kernel? (qurrently using kernel included in ROM)
thanks in advance

See I'm pretty sure its the kernel giving random reboots. But with LuPuS or Fusion kernel, WiFi and Bluetooth will not work on 4.2.

Hey, one question:
Why the Wifi doesn't work on LuPuS or FusioN Kernel? :/
I#m using Paranoidmod now, because od that...

Hi,
May I also post on the Pro version here? There is no seperate thread for it.
It's my first attempt on a custom rom after using stock ICS. Unfortunately, I found it to be very unstable
My first attempt was Lupus/v21, now I'm on Fusion/v22. Both seem to be highly unstable. Just using apps is normally fine, but a few things seem to provoke lockups including unlocking the screen, listening to music and using the camera.
I did a full wipe before installing (system, cache, dalvik cache, data), I even tried the permissions fix.
Otherwise it seems a great rom, perfect feature set and very fast, but the unstability makes it unusable for me

Yes u can post here also. Comparing any 4.2 ROM to STOCK ICS, stock ICS would be the winner in terms of stability. 4.1 is the best if you want JB IMO. But 4.2 and especially PAC 4.2 has a lot more features, customization amongst other things. It doesn't matter on the kernel its going to be the same. This is why FXP stopped developing after CM10 for the XPERIA 2011 line-up. It will never be 100% stable as will any 4.2 ROM for Xperia 2011.

I don't know what calls you stabillity, but 4.1 is very stable, almost as 4.0. 4.2 isn't stable specially with 3.x kernels, but 4.1 is perfect. And FXP stop the development for 2011 line becase they have to develop for a lot of devices, i think.

I said 4.1 is stable. And no they stopped because without a stable 3.x kernel it would be impossible for a stable 4.2 J. There was no 3.x kernel for 2011 device back then, but even still they knew if there was a 3.x kernel it would need a lot of work to get stable, if it even can.
