I use Cyanogenmod 9 and i really like it. If you want to run ics on your Arc i would recommend cm9 or arconium.

Im just lookin for a solid rom for everyday use would prefer ics

I don't recommend ICS roms yet. Just wait for Sony to release the final code, and find yourself a good ICS rom. For now, I'd say Arconium 8 or DiMiui/MIUI-G. They're all based on Gingerbread.

Awesome thanks for the tip. Also once unlocked with omnius is it ready to flash? Or do i still have to unlock with sony site?

Since the omnius thread says that they unlock bootloaders then i suppose that you don't need to do the steps with the sony site. Just install DoomKernel 19 + Arconium 8.1 and you are good to go (all the SE specific features working, from xloud to hdmi).

Ahh you were too late. Omnius was free until yesterday.

Welcome Achotjan to Xperia S forum
sony will take long time to update to JB,i think you can start with CM9 if you want
Sent from my LT26i using Tapatalk 2

CM10 is hottest, i think!

A new Rom as soon as possible for sure I think not Sony will upgrade JB for XS before December or later. CM9 at this time is almost completed - smooth, fast, stable, friendly battery

Still, AOKP with Sony firmware would be AWESOME!!!

Sorry for the noob question, but what exactly is semc debrand engine?
Is it cm9/cm10 with sony style + sony apps?

For me i d base my decision on whether or not we are likely to see a working camera on cm10 anytime soon or is it likely to be non functional till Sony does their own port.
If we are going to be stuck with getting camera working on cm10 then I'd say make the port for cm9.
I'm not seeing much indication which way it's going to go with cm10 yet though as it's early days. Maybe one of the fxp guys could give us a hint as to where we lie?
Oh and nice to see you here, looking forward to seeing your rom on xs.

What he meant, is we work from source (we make the vendor/device/kernel trees) whereas you work from binary (you put Sony stuff into CM ROM)

Need suggestions for a new rom

Hi everyone,
I am a ROM dev and I wish to create a new ROM for Xperia S. I have so far noticed that AOSP looks are not very popular in this forum, so I want some suggestion from the people of this forum.
Thanking you,

I would die 4 this one
CM10 with the following mods:
Xperia NXT Lockscreen
Xperia media apps (walkman, sound enhanscements, gallery,download music info)
Xperia status bar and launcher
Xperia camera
Btw with the recovery of stock ics kernel o at least a recovery that works ok, not like the other ones that mess up everything with the partitions and cache.
And that's all i can think about right now. :good:
Ive been trying to gather those myself but its almost impossible as i always end up with a bootloop.

Uh um, I would prefer to develop on a stock base. Also, we are any way going to get official JB so no point in theming CM10 to look like stock right?
Thanks a lot anyway
Sent from my LT26i using xda app-developers app

I'm an ion user but if you're going stock based I'd just like something that's fast and smooth. My current stock ics slows down all the time. If you make a fast stock based rom that works on locked bootloader me and a bunch of people would be super happy.

How about making stock bravia engine to work for cm rom ??

I believe that is not possible - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2171082
As the above link says, pimp my rom **should** work.

How about helping rayman to develop pure cm10.1 rom ?? So the development of the rom will be faster and will be the best rom .... Pure CM is the best rom i think and many people use it to based their rom, because the development is daily and many user reporting bugs ....
And now it's only on v4 going to v5 ..... I think you will be busy to develop that rom
Sent from my LT26ii using xda app-developers app

Maybe u can develop rom on stock kernel, with out need to ub, bcoz some people like me dont want lost drm key. And i hope u can make for acro s to bcoz development for acro s very slow, not many choices...

Well i must say i appriciate your work, nexus, for XS, cause people with locked bl are left with no choice between sony and AOSP, i think you will have a bunch of users when v.2 comes out, also when JB comes. Only thing that stoping people to decide for your rom is. FW.55 base instead 45, 50 . Cause they already rooted on those FW and it is much simple to do, cause no need to use flashtool, and not riskig warranty because then can revert on carrier braded Fw in chase of trouble,
Any way i realy hope that you wont give up nexus xperience, i have been searching for it long time
Or try porting Cm , pac,...on LBL especialy for people that cant unlock BL,like me, i would unlock it if i could, and there are many folks in same situation

Poll added
Hi guys,
Thanks for all the suggestions. I have come up with some ideas. Please participate in the newly added poll so that I will know what to build. Also, I will be able to make roms only for Xperia S/SL as I don't have any other devices. Sorry. [ Unless someone manages to port it of course ]
Thanking you,

Multiview like in galaxy note 2 for xperia s/sl
if possible can u develop a rom with the multiview functionality available in galaxy note 2...it has also been ported to galaxy s2 without official help so i guess its not impossible for a screen size of our mobile??

That would be quite difficult and apart from being difficult, apktool has a problem with our phone's framework-res.apk and hence whatever you do, after modifying framework-res.apk, the phone bootloops. There is a work around for that using a binary diff program but it would be extremely difficult and time consuming.

Hy i have been thinking for a while and wanted to suggest you to take look in xperia neo development section, for rom called jjdoctors hybrid i used that rom when i had Neo, and its awsome,support both BL statuses, i think you would have a great response, and many users in XS section
What do you say?

It looks quite similar to my Nexus rom
Its NOT AOSP.. Its a Hybrid of Sony and AOSP ROMS...
This ROM will give you a COMPLETE AOSP Experience.. You wont even know if its based on Official Sony ROM...

And bootloader is not a problem at all. Actually speaking, all custom roms based on stock ics **should** work on both bootloaders.

Of course I had searched a lot. Ticklefish and a few other guys were also wondering why my framework-res.apk was bootlooping. Thanks for the link anyway.

Not yet. I bet Cyanogen will be the first 4.3 Rom for ZL. Just wait a few days after the sources are available.

Aosp has already been updated to 4.3 for the zl. Build was released but had some major issues, kernel was not updated tho, this will probably fix these issues. So probably in the next few days. Again, aosp.

It's not important to have more development, but maybe instead we get BETTER development.
It's a pity that I don't understand anything about github, compiling and so on. I'd like to give something back to this community, but I can't...
