Recommend no frills ICS-ROM - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello peers, I am on Xperia V right now but also have an Xperia Arc in my closet. So I wanted to make it come to life again with a nice ROM. But there are so many ROMs now in the forum so I can't make a decision since I have been away for long time here and only hanging around in the Xperia V (LT25i) forum.
I need help in finding a ROM for my unlocked bootloader Arc (LT15i) that dosen't have to be flashed with Arc S (LT18i) firmware first.
I want just the basics-, nothing fancy and ICS with some minor tweaks and added performance boost etc (On-screen-buttons would be nice too).
Please help me find a ROM, and kindly provide a link to the developer thread.
I thank you much in advance.

For the beginning i would recommend one of the following ROMs : Viper Xperia and UHD 3.0.2. I would Choose Viper Xperia (PDroid ) but this is only my opinion.

Hi datagubben,
You can flash LT18i .ftf first just so you have 420MB in /system partition, instead of 380MB of LT15i. Other than that there's no differences.
If you want a nice ICS ROM with on screen buttons I would suggest Pureness ROM by ThilinaC.

He's not developing it anymore, but it is the best looking one out there, in my opinion at least.

Xperia S on GB?!?!

Hey guys,
I'm thinking about going back to GB as ICS it's becoming a burden rather then an awesome thing but I've installed some Xperia S stuff (from here: http://www.xperiablog.net/2012/02/25/xperia-s-home-launcher-and-widgets-leaked/) and I quite like the tools and the home screen.
Can I install it on GB 2.3.4? Is it compatible?
ICS for Xperia S hasn't been released yet. It is still on Gingerbread (2.3.7).
Yes yes, they are compatible.
Or you can flash an Xperia S look alike ROM based on GB.. Original Xperia S Rom Beta 5 for Arc / Arc S
Thank you! Installed!
Keeping a GB 2.3.4 with Xperia S stuff for the time being (while ICS is "buggy") and it rocks!

Good Mods and Add-ons

Hello I'm using JJ's Hybrid ROM with ArcNight 3.3 kernel and it's awesome but I want even more stuff.
Like supercharger v6, Xperia S lockscreen, Google Now, and Turning off button backlights.
And also any smart accessories for the device.
Have you got any Mods/Add-ons/ports that you recommend, for better battery and performance or just a more stylish UI.

[Q] Kill App via Back Button ???

How to Kill App via Back Button ?!?!?!? i saw it in some roms but how to apply it to stock 587 rom ?
As I know, that's a custom developer feature and cannot be enabled on a stock 587 ROM, I repeat AS FAR AS I KNOW.
you must unfortunately for now install a custom rom which supports it such as miui or hybrid ics.
I have never seen any rom supporting this function without being a modified one.
I think it's in development

Don't see how hard it is to search. And no kernel is better, try different ones and see for yourself because everyone has different preferences.

Xperia S ROM on Xperia SL

i am buying Xperia SL and since SL ROM are very few I wanted to ask how does Xperia S based ROM perform on SL? For me development support is very crucial thats why i am not buying Ion. So please help me
They are basically the same. Apart from you'd need an overclocked kernel otherwise you'll run 1.5 ghz not that it really matters
