[SOLVED] Trouble installing Ultimate HD rom for Arc LT15i - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey, I've had a custom rom on my LT15i before but I thought I might try something new so I downloaded the Xperia Ultimate HD (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32375524) and ran it using CWM. The only step of the install I skipped was the custom kernel, because the link in the op post doesn't actually link to a custom kernel, just this empty reserved post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=32375524&postcount=4).
My phone is already rooted and unlocked from the first time I installed a custom rom. I'm using CWM version v5.5.0.4 I assume that's what the kernel is?
I took the necessary steps in CWM but the first boot of the rom just freezes with Sony on the screen. So I imagine I'm missing the kernel that was an install step but wasn't actually linked at all? Could someone provide the kernel that goes with this particular rom or one that might work with the rom for an LT15i xperia arc?

Re: [Q] Trouble installing Ultimate HD rom for Arc LT15i
Go browse the dev section for the kernel that's been mentioned or find another stock based one.

Searching in the dev forum for "Xperia Ultimate Basic Kernel" just links back to the thread I started with. How do I know if a particular kernel will work with a particular rom? Do I really just have to pick one at random and hope for the best?

Re: [Q] Trouble installing Ultimate HD rom for Arc LT15i
Try stockbased kernel, like vengeance, lupus 9 etc.

I tried both of these and have the same problem, phone frozen after 15 min of waiting on the Lupus/Sony screen

I think I might have solved the problem, I just realised that the rom I was trying to flash was in fact a "mod" (with a similar name) and I'd been trying to flash that rather than the particular rom. Hours of time disappear over such a trivial mistake. Oh well, cheers for all the suggestions, hopefully this works.
Edit: Yep, turns out that's exactly what the problem was, this thread is SOLVED.

You're clearly capable of reading so simply read the thread titles and the OPs of the threads that hasn't listed in the title what it works with.

How do I match kernel to ROM?

This is one of those n00b questions that probably seems obvious but isn't, at least for me.
One can safely assume a kernel that says it is for CM7 or CM9 will work with ROMs with those names. But what about ROMs based on stock, like DarkForest 3.0.5 or the UK ROM? It's not quite as clear to me and I didn't see that info in the ROMs where I would expect it to be.

DoomLord or Darkforest (stock based, it's a few pages back in dev forum) or stock (flash via ftf) for stock based (darkforest 3/cola/IT-Rom/gbtweaked/r800x UK). Kernel associated with rom for others.

So ROMS should indicate whether they are based on Stock or not, and they should indicate the kernal, shouldn't they?
Also, I think one can also say, if you want to be on the bleeding edge of technology, go with CM9 or maybe CM7. If you want to use your Play to play videos, games that use video cutscenes, etc, stick with a Stock-based ROM. (At this point in development, anyway.)
And, Pax, Am I also correct in assuming when FXP puts up a new build, as they just did, I will want to hold off until Chevyowner updates his link, or is there a way for me to keep the CDMA functionality using other builds?
BTW - CM9 is awesome!
If I ever get around to creating an update.zip, we might have a flashable porting zip for CDMA on CM9

That would be sweet!
The Darkforest kernel links are all outdated so that is a no-go. I installed DoomLord's kernel without a problem, but I can't get into recovery on it, tried back button, volume down, volume up, home, search... nothing.
Just flashed back to stock with the ftf file and installed the doomkernel again - boots ok into Stock now, so that's something. However, I understand that this kernel is harder on the battery use than Keiran's.
The learning continues! Now to figure out how to get recovery on it and how to get in it!.

1) Create the file structure and fill it with the files you want to use.
2) Write the updater script.
3) sign it with testsign.jar.
4) Flash it.
That's how you basically create an update.zip. The really boney part is the updater script, in which you have to figure out the correct permissions, symlinks and other stuff, and/or run the scripts you want to have working.

I recently flashed Doomkernel v11 on my stock rom then flashed the wifi modules and everything is fine. When Doomkernel logo appears on boot, that is the time the LED turns to blue and I just pressed "back" key on my xplay and it boot into Doomkernel's boot manager. However, I also installed CWM 5.0.2.7 for Xperia phones just to be sure. Lastly, it really is a bit of hard battery in the battery but it is fast and stable. Btw, I am using T.E.A.M. rom as of now and it is also fast and stable.

He's on the R800x, I haven't tested out doomkernel v11 (i know doomkernel v10 gsm had an issue with DHCP on R800x) and T.E.A.M. rom is currently not working on R800x (we've been having baseband issues with porting any of the 4.xxx firmware to Xperia Play)

Completely understandable, this thread started as a R800x focused one, but with Logseman no longer updating the Guide/Rollup thread, we do need a new on focused on matching kernels with Roms...

Hi, I have a few noob questions as well:
1. Does a custom ROM like CM7 or Lite'ning have their own kernel ? When I flash them, the kernel I have now (CF-ROOT) gets replaced ?
2. How do I know to match a kernel to a ROM ?

And thus we return to the original question!
I have since found that the best way to know which kernel to use with a ROM is to read through the thread for the ROM you are interested in. If a ROM is based on stock, then look for kernels based on stock, etc.
Also some ROMs package a kernel to be used with them in the zip file. It's always a good choice when you want to try a ROM and you aren't sure what kernel to use.

i have seen videos on how to update via flash tool but its kinda complicated and still have to flash kernels, is there any other way or an easy way to update my arc? sorry bro for i have so many questions and still i have more.
what rom for GB do u suggest i use for my arc?
Flashing a stock ftf also flashes the included kernel. If you're still struggling with video tutorials or guides then someone else will have to assist as I'm not here to spoon feed for the reason stated in the second line of my guide.

You cant use ICS mods with a GB kernel.
Have you unlocked your bootloader already?

at last my perseverance paid off, lots of reading, searching, downloading and bookmarking and trial and error and came to the point that i almost bricked my ARC. i am now on android 4.0.4 BB-77 with Advanced stock kernel, build# .587 running on xperia ultimate HD 2.0
heres my screenshot.
BTW if there is someone still a noob like me in flashing heres the simplest vid that i found and it work for me, you should have all drivers installed on your pc
do not release the back button until flashing is finished and not all back button are on the right side as seen on flashtool

Any ROM with Paranoid settings which allow you to set dpi for single apps is awesome. I have compiled paranoid android 2.55 and put link in thread in dev section of you wanna try. Camps is also pretty awesome but my phone got really sluggish with that so I use regular PA.

If You are looking for GB based Roms then X-Gamer v1.6, this will give you an Internal Mem of 355MB, and RAM of nearly 240MB after installation and its stable too. If ICS based Roms then JelleySandwich 7.4. its stable (by stable i mean after installation everything works).
The above Roms i have tested it on LT15i with LB though.

You should try the ROM and kernel combinations yourself. Go to the development section, read a few of the ROM threads and try them out. Since everyone has different requirements for the ROM, there is no 'best ROM' out there that everyone can agree on.
If you're not sure about the instructions here, search on Google instead. They should have newbie guides there.

You do not need root to install custom firmware. Just flash the appropriate kernel for your rom then boot into cwm and flash rom.

- If your bootloader is unlocked flash Lupus v16, you'll find it here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1867265
In this kernel, CWM is included.
- Then download an ICS ROM (ICS needed with this kernel). There is a huge number of ROM on DEV section, just download the one you prefer ! (Personally, I recommend you jader13254's one :angel: --> look at my signature :good: You'll find it here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1920207)
- Put the zip on your SD card and boot into CWM (by pressing VOL DOWN during boot)
- Do full wipes (data + factory reset + format /system + battery stats)
- Install the ROM (install zip --> Choose from SD card --> ROM.zip)
- Reboot twice !
And enjoy your BRAND NEW PHONE !!!

Stock ICS was so laggy, i couldn't stand it anymore. Now it feels like a whole new phone, love it But which ROM would you personally recommend between Viper and Ultimate HD? I've tested them both and it's very hard to pick one :/
Up to you, if my memory is correct viper is more customisable, uhd gives better performance ( subjective) but theyre both great.

Everything. What's the point in having a separate sections for different kinds of threads when people just don't give a **** about this? When I want to help people I go to Q&A and when I need a custom kernel I go to Development section, this feels logical. People who can't keep their posts in the right place create a mess which is frustrating and gives moderators extra work. If you keep your milk in a drawer and bread in a refrigerator then good luck with your life.

I see your point, well excuse me then. Honestly i didn't even see that section, even though it's right below General. I just registered and was in a hurry and I just picked the a section that made most sense to post in apart from Q&A. On top of that, i'm new here as well, i dont know my way around yet, of what's allowed and what's not allowed apart from the rules. But that's probably not an excuse here. Actually, sometimes i keep both in the refrigerator and my life is going pretty well.

to your device using Flashtool.
-It's safe!
-It will increase your System ROM memory to enable installation of JB roms completely.
-EDIT-
Here's a screenshot that will help you to flash the ArcS firmware pack, give credits to him

If you want a pure stock based Android, try to flash CM10.1 for your Arc: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2147958
Flash the kernel (boot.img) using Flashtool or you can also use this for flashing kernels and unlocking/relocking bootloader: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1560613

Mmmm... as of now the Build0722: http://legacyxperia.basketbuild.com/index.php?dir=main/cm10.1/anzu/nightlies/
Is just fine, no lags and the bug of random reboots have been fixed (Tested on my friend's Arc) It's much better if you'll partitioned your SD card and have a Link2SD on it
-EDIT-
ICS and JB 4.1 is ALOT stable than the JB 4.2 right now cause some parts of camera is not partially working correctly in 4.2 (Sorry I forgot to told u bout that)
Here you can try FreeXperiaProject's CM10 for Anzu: http://www.freexperiaproject.com/
Stable enough for daily use but I think FM Radio is still not working there (Correct me if I'm wrong, not sure about it)

Kernel 2in1 [ICS/GB]

Hey guyz, is there any kernel which works for both ics and gb.
There was a lupus version long time ago, but I don't remember the version. If any body know please post here.
Thanks
If I remember correctly, newest ICS Lupus (v15 or v16) can boot both ICS and GB.

If you can confirm? Please, TIA
I don't have the phone at hand right now, being used as temporary backup phone by a relative.
Just try it yourself. You can't really mess up anything. ICS boots definitely on that kernel, GB should, but if it doesn't, you can just flash another kernel/ROM or even stock firmware.

The thing is m not having PC availability, I have to request to my faculty for system access but only for 5-10 mins. So I can't test in that time, cause I can't stay to ics cause of its performance for long time. otherwise I wouldn't have posted this thread if I had PC.
Btw thanks mate.

Seems to be lupus v14. In the sticky thread for roms/root/kernels/mods etc. in arc development section (post 3, gb kernels) it's mentioned. I looked into lupus thread and in the changelog for older releases you see v14 that should boot up on ics, cm9 and gb. But I didn't test it myself :angel:
Cheers!
Lupus is ics+gb kernel (latest version) u can use both of the firmware and its based roms with this kernel.[emoji3]
So i confirm here that lupus is two in one kernel. Thanks for your response guys.
