[Q] Any Roms suitable for me? - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I wanted to change a rom for my Xperia Arc,but I can't play Puzzle & Dragons(Japanese Version) after I changed the rom.:crying:
So is here some rom that can overclock but it can play Puzzle & Dragons?
I found that Puzzle & Dragons will check is the phone is rooted and the ramdisk
Sorry for my bad English.....

It's not right to compare ROMs, but I can give you some advice.
Don't go for stock ICS, it will lag. CSR Racing still lags even after I tweaked my phone on stock ICS.
GB ROMs would be better for gaming as they don't take up as much resources as compared to ICS ROMs.

Try super jelly bean. I am using it and it's good for gaming...

Do not ask such questions again. It is against the Rules. Go to the ROM threads and check out by your self, read the ROM descriptions and user reviews. That helps better.

These discussions are forbidden on XDA, because there is no best.
1/ Other developers dont want to see someone saying their work is not as good as someone elses.
2/ Whats best for someone else may not be the best for you.
Conclusion: Try all them out and see which one is best for your needs.

[Q] Best Daily Driver NON SENSE Rom

I think the title says it all....
I'm probably going to flash an ICS rom once they are out of Alpha.....
But for now.. thinking about moving over to plain jane Android... probably using ADW EX to theme it out like ICS (since ADW has the nice folder action)....
So people's opinion.. best NON SENSE Rom at the moment?
Latest Cyan? Bugless? The Kang'd one in the development thread? Another I don't know about?
Chime in... all opinions welcome (I would like to know "why" you are stating what you are though)...
p.s. no flaming others on this please It's purely opinions.. everyone is entitled...
p.s.s. any kernel advice is welcome as well
Seriously use Evervolv ICS rom preview 5. I am using it as my daily driver. I posted links to the rom, exchange.apk fix and gapps on rootzwiki. As I am not allowed to post links on xda at the moment you would have to go to rootzwiki.
What's not working on it? I take pics of my niece all the time (she's 4) so I need a working camera... don't care about video though....
Also I use this for navigation.... and part of where I drive is kinda crappy service.. so I have been using Navigon for those areas and the maps are on the SD card...
Also full bluetooth needed... as my car stereo has bluetooth and a mic behind the steering wheel....
edit: just tried.. and camera doesn't do panoramic.. only 4:3.... don't really care about video.. but want the other... so original question still exists.
Best NON SENSE Rom? Anyone?
I use Inc-Deck its a modified CM7, I think it feels a little less "fat" than cm7.
Bugless is also a stout option, either or.
Edit: To go back a ways OMGB is a solid rom, it was my daily for at least 2 months straight.
Got a link to Inc-Deck? I may be blind but I'm not seeing it in the development section... Mostly I want to get used to stock before a ICS build is ready for primetime...

It's tweaked just enough to make it feel a bit smoother than cm7 and it comes with the stock launcher. Also I'm not too sure about the bluetooth on this, I never use it but I haven't seen anyone complain about it.
Happy Flashing!
Give MIUI a try. I recently switched after using CM for about a year and am really happy with it. I think the ROM is much better than CM, although I hated the iPhone look to the ROM but I just use GO Launcher and go back to what my CM homescreens looked like. There are a few things I miss from CM, but overall really happy with MIUI
I flash a new rom about every day but cm9 has held me for a while so that would be my current daily that i would suggest to give a try to.

Custom Rom Recommodation?

Hey guys, first i want to say i´m sorry for my bad english as its not my native language.
I think i´m ready to install my first Custom Rom, because i want to have ics after using gb such a long time. Also many games such as GTA 3 lag often.
I read that many ics roms have full touchpad support.
So I would like to ask you some questions, i would be very happy to get helpfull answers
1. Is it true that i can play every game that works on gingerbread with that ics roms?
2. What about the gaming performance in comparison to stock gingerbread?
3. Are there any ics roms that runs smooth and with no major bugs?
Thank you very much! I hope that this kind of threads are allowed
1. Some games don't work with the touch pads on ICS
2. Gaming performance sucks in ICS
3. Define smooth. As smooth as gingerbread, none.
Okay, so i think i´ll better stay on gingerbread then, right?
What ist custom rom with the best performance? both, games and overall menu?

i think glazed ICS with lupus kernel is worth trying
Well I'm using markphytonsics ROM and it's running just as smooth as gb for me. It also has the full touchpad fix. The only thing is a very few games don't work on it. You can try that one. Just make sure to do a nandroid incase you don't like the ics experience. Also be sure to titanium backup your apps if you don't want to lose them.
to complete this thread, i´ve finally installed this and it runs really smooth!

[Q] Help needed choosing ROM and Kernel

Hello, I have recently rooted and unlocked my Arc and I am now looking for a Kernel and ROM to start my custom experience with. I do not want to insult or under value the hard work of developers by asking for advice on the "best" ROM, however I find myself becoming increasingly more confused with the options available.
I am looking for a Kernel and ROM that give me JB, no lag, overclocking, good battery life, camera, wifi, bluetooth, smooth operation non beta and is more interesting then the stock ROM. I am not a gamer and rarely use HDMI.
I have searched XDA and have read so many opinions and spun around so many times that I now find myself looking up my own arse.
Could someone let me know what has worked and continues to work for them.
Cheers.
These threads get closed for a reason. Stick with the stock ROM or read the dev threads and choose. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2147836

We can't help you find a ROM these thread always get closed because there isn't one ROM that suits everyone, like I'm running pacman right now but I might decide to with slimbean v5 and my own tweaks to it or I might ftf back 2.3.4 GB for gaming its basically trial and error on what you want and what you like

Just one question why do you want to upgrade to Jelly ?
Thank for answering, i would like to upgrade to jb because i would like to have the latest features and to use apps that arent compatible with gb, since i dont use phone for heavy gaming but just emulators i would like to know about experience of users who are on jb, im not asking for the best rom available like other people do, but i just asked about wich rom is more suitable for my use since i only need system smoothness, no force closes and no problems with buttons in emulators
Also i dont really like the memory management of gb on stock and customs, i have occasional force closes and with ram tweaks the situation is worse
Thanks again

For me I searched for a uptodate ROM that have good performance and a good look so there might be better performing ROMs but whitout a nice look (if you want goo performance you need to give up from the look, for me I searched for a balanced roms good look good performance).
If you really want all the new stuff I suggest you to go with Jelly ROMs.
I currently have Miui v5 3.8.16 with dolby which is a very nice ROM Google now works perfectly many features great look and feel, but it's not the best with games (it's acceptable, it's worth for 1 try).
There are some great performing ROMs with different look like there is the: Xperia Z Jelly Bean withe a nice Xperia Z look.
If you prefer the stock android look then CM10.0 FreeXperia Project it's updated every weak or so, very good performance lot of customization ( there is this Project Jellyzeu which is stopped, same stock jelly bean as cm 10.0 but whit out the cm features, this is pure stock very good performance.),
If you would try ICS ROMs I suggest you ICS Original nice Sony ICS look and good performance too.
You should try Cm10 free xperia project. Actually this is the best one for me. I have tested alot of JB roms and this is my guard for now. Stable and smooth UI (you can try use Pure audio and PurePerformances pack's,and the ROM is flying away! - search at Android Software and hacking general development) at newset build FXP237 touchpads are not working,but at 235 works.
Thanks for sharing your experiences with various jb and ics roms,i will try them, also i would like to know, does jelly bean and project butter makes the difference on overall speed and smoothness than ics on our device? If you want, everyone who upgraded or who revert to gingerbread can post his experience and impressions and tell me if its happy or no after upgrading to ics or jb/reverting to gb
Sent from my R800i using xda app-developers app
i tried many ics and jb roms here and after a while everytime i reverted back to stock based roms and now finally again to real stock with my own mods.
in games performance in jb and ics was the same for me. daily usage is smoother in jb but ics has the touchpads so for me in focus on gaming CM9 was the right one.
i reverted back go GB in the end because generally it was slower everywhere. GB is snappy, you tip the finger, the action happens. i have so much stuff installed and the heaviest games still run as on the first day.
even emulators. i use retroarch mostly and pcsx runs just perfectly under GB - one of the most problematic games colin mcrae rally 2.0 runs beautifully. under ics / jb the gpu drivers are not that good and refresh rates aren't reported right - results in some kind of stuttering. can be fixed but not perfectly.
or compare crazy taxi or most wanted (with opponents and heavy stages -> hint to reviewers here who just show a single lap without anything on the street) - they lag like hell under ics or jb - perfectly fluid on GB - this is the deal breaker for me. definitely.
Interesting, i didnt know about stuttering, i tought that the updated adreno drivers will let gpu gain more 3d performance, anyway with jb there are problems with touchpad or even with gamepad? Jb kernel supports unlocked data partition? Personally i ve tried some ics roms but i finded a bit heavy and laggy in general use then gb so i returned on gb, have to try if project butter makes really the difference, jb should be an improvement over ics

I bought an Xperia T that runs on jelly bean.... its horrific I removed over 100 preinstalled apks and it still idles at 350mb RAM usage
My desktop pc dosnt even use that much. the battery only lasted 5 hours max. and there's no solution for the locked bootloader
I chucked that thing in one of my draws and bought a second hand Play
With my Xperia mini pro I was a big fan of cm7
But with the play I couldn't get the touch pads to work (need for modern combat 4 if anyone knows how to fix that id love to know)
So I tried gin2jellybean ROM with lupus kernel (think its gingerbread that looks like jellybean)
battery's awesome (24 hours still on 95%) touch pads work,
There are some things id like to change and I miss allot from cm7 but overall very happy with it :good:
Rom decision
The best rom really depends to your taste.
I suggest that you try to read the roms on our android development and choose what do you need and like.
Also it is better on gb but for ICS and JB you will need too focus on gaming or looks.
At the moment I am using Nexplay by Cyberscopes and currently observing it.
Overall the best rom will really depends on you.
Use xplay Honami rom by smokerman... Fastest ics rom I've ever used...
Sent from my MT25i using xda app-developers app
Try Gin2jellybean then. I know its on GB but its very fast, it has so much free RAM and it has JB look and feel. Thanks to being on GB it has no compatibility issues, all buttons work and playing on this Rom is awesome experience
Sorry if my reply offended you (I know you wanted Rom on JB) but this is very interesting option.

I dont know if its allowed, but i bet that you wont be able to find any sustantial difference in performance in whatever GB ROM you choose.
Its basically reduced to what pleased you more in style/add-ons
Just try one and see it for yourself.
Looks like I need to pull out that quote:
"Different people have different opinions on different ROMs because each person has a phone for different reasons."
Some use it for playing games, some use it for social activities, some use it for taking pictures.etc.
There won't be a ROM that can satisfy everyone's conditions for a ROM, so picking a ROM would be based on what you do with your phone. If you want good quality photos, stick with stock based ROMs. If you want to play games, use GB.
