If you prefer Stock then you could always try coming away from 2.3.3.
Good luck mate.

Advice on updating

Hey everyone, so I've had my Xperia Arc for nearly 2 years and it's the same android (2.3.4). It's recently started to lag like crazy and freeze a lot so I've been thinking about upgrading to a better rom. I've used the eroot method with one click to root it.I've got superuser access.
Will I able be able to upgrade straight to Xperia Ultimate HD?
I've been reading tutorials and youtubing for hours but it's still going over my head. Any simple written instructions or answers would help.
Thank you for taking the time to read this.

I've been reading the threads for a few hours now and honestly I'm getting really dizzy just reading and re-reading through it all lol. If you could just answer one or 2 questions it would be helpful.
If I were to install a rom would I need to flash a kernel? As I have already rooted my phone can I just use flashtool to flash lupus kernel?

Yes, kernel is a must. Without the kernel, your phone won't run properly.
As for the Lupus kernel, it is a custom kernel and so should be flashed via fastboot, if you have unlocked your bootloader beforehand.

Rooting isn't enough to flash kernel...kernel needs unlocked bootloader...if you are on gb you will have to flash stock ics firmware...root it... Install cwm and then ultimate hd...

Not all kernels need unlocked bootloader. You can still flash stock kernels via flashtool with locked bootloader. Only custom kernels like CM kernels need unlocked bootloader to flash.

Okay I'm going mostly by this tutorial - can't post links yet. It's by Jeremy Phan on uTube, whom I believe is a member on this forum.
Will the fact that my 2.3.4 version is rooted matter at all if I'm to upgrade to ice cream sandwich like in the video?

No, since official update to ICS will cause you to lose root. You need to root again after updating.

Thank you for answering my questions, I really appreciate it. Just a final one, if I get cold feet about installing a custom rom is the offical ice cream sandwich decent enough or better than 2.3.4 ginger?
I just really want a better walkman/music player than the standard one.

Walkman was never officially included in 2011 Xperia devices. But I see more devs making ports for ICS. As for GB and ICS, they both have advantages and disadvantages. GB favors performance but lacks many features. ICS has more features but lags more than GB.

I see, thanks for that. My phone has recently started lag quite badly but that may be because i have 2500 songs on my sd card. Use it as a music player as much as a phone, which is a shame then that the music player (including apps on the market) are pretty crap.

Walkman was only on 2011 Sony Ericsson Live with Walkman phone, although it's interface was more or like the same as stock music player on other 2011 phones.

You can try Poweramp from the Play Store. One of the best music players IMHO.

I have 2 questions. Please answer fast ;)

Hi guys!
i need your help so i hope i get fast answer! i have no bootloader unlock and i CANNOT unlock it
first:
i have problems with my flashtool. it says all the time no driver installed but i installed them :/
so i reinstalled the flashtool and the driver lots of times but dont work.
how can i enable this drivers?? because i want to install a gb rom and i cannot install gb firmware..
then please give me the link for the gb firmware
second:
my tablet felt down and dont work anymore, but i want to play mc4 anyway on my phone and want to record my display while playing. so whats the fastest rom on gingerbread or ice cream sandwich??? i think its an gingerbread rom.. btw i need for gaming.
thanks to you guys
i hope for fast answer

For the first thing, try installing GordonGate drivers (I think I spelled that right). That did it for me.
For the second thing, well, correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think that's possible. Playing a game and recording the screen at the same time takes a lot of resources (RAM, CPU). And Arc doesn't excell at either. But like I said, anyone can correct me if I'm wrong.
Sent from my Xperia Z

ok thanks anyway..
im using the xperia arc s..
and i think it is possible to record without laggs if you clear cache all the time and use a rom without many standart apps.
maybe it isnt possible but i think so

First answer:
Check flashtool installation, what version of Windows are you running? Please search for a ROM link instead as there are plenty of them here.
Second answer:
For gaming, use a GB ROM. Since bootloader cannot be unlocked, you're stuck with stock ROM for the time being.
Don't even ask for fastest ROM. It's against the rules. Try the ROM out yourself and see if it suits you best. If you continue this line of questioning I shall ask a mod to close your thread.

ok thanks
im running windows xp
32-bit version
yeah and i was searching in flashtool folder but didnt work..
ok ill try some roms like x gamer or x stronger..

Did you try downloading Gordon Gate drivers? I had all the drivers from Flashtool installed, but the computer still couldn't recognize my phone (I believe it was the case with Arc, not Z). I spent hours of digging through various forums until I stumbled upon Gordon's Gate drivers. Installed, and everything's been working fine since then.
Sent from my Xperia Z

ok i will try it

can anybody sent me please a link for the driver.
i dont find them and the link of the official website is invalid :/

ok guys thank you all for the answers..
now my flashtool works.
i installed pc companion again and i had to reput in the file.. after this it worked
thank you anyway and this thread can get closed or not. whatever you want!
thank u soo much

Flashing Kernel

Hello and Good day (again),
I'm very sorry for multi-posting but I would just like to ask if there is any way of flashing the kernel without using fastboot?!, my phones bootloader is unlocked but my network carrier is locked, that's why I can't access fastboot.
Specifications:
Model: Xperia Play R800at
Carrier: AT&T
Rooted: Yes
Recovery: CWM
Bootloader Status: Unlocked (Using Testpoint Method)
ROM: Stock ROM (Xperia Play_3.0.1.B.0.270_ATT.ftf)

You can also Flash Kernels via Flash Mode in FlashTool. You can find Kernels in FTF format here:
[R800][Depository]FTF Kernels for the Xperia Play
You unlocked you phone's Bootloader with the Test Point Method right?

Wooh! A very big thanks to you bro . But is there a more updated version of Lupus Kernel? I think there's a V13 now for that one
Yes that is right, I unlocked it using Test Point Method . And I'm also curious about this, if your bootloader is unlocked, then does that also mean that your bootloader is unlocked even if you changed your ROM?

And I'm also thinking of installing ICS if possible .

Yea, Version 13 of lupus Kernel its right their, its under the Jellybean Section(as its only works for JB ROMs).
Yes your Bootloader is Unlock permanently. You can change ROMs, Kernels and even go back to the Stock ROM and your Bootloader will stay Unlocked.
EDIT:
ICS is Possible, you can actually go up to JB and everything works on it.

You can find a lot of ROMs under the Android Development section of the Xperia Play Sub-Forum here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-play/development
My Personal favorite JB ROMs are this ones(if you want to try them out):
[ROM][GSM+CDMA][Play+Neo L]Slimbean 5.1.1[MULTIBOOT][02-03-2014]
[ROM][GSM][CDMA][CM10][MULTIBOOT][NEOL+PLAY]Racing SPEED EDITION EOL[12/02/2014]
If you really are looking for the best gaming performance then I recommend sticking to Gingerbread.
And yes there is a Kitkat ROM but a lot of things don't work on it yet like WiFi and the Camera.

Oh I see, but my problem on Gingerbread is that Final Fantasy V, Final Fantasy VI, Minecraft and many other games are not supported xD, and Nova Launcher is not also supported so I'm thinking of reverting to a higher firmware . And I would also like to ask if what's the 720p and 480p on Lupus Kernel?!, does that mean 480=Partial and 720=Full?
I would also like to apologize for my long and tedious questions .

Yea, you will probably need to try out different ROMs to see which one fits your needs the best. The 720p and 480p are the camera resolutions, if you use a 480p Kernel you will get more Free RAM.
I have no problem answering your questions, just remember to click on the "Thanks" button but you can probably find the answer faster if you search instead of waiting for some one to reply. There is even a search bar if you only want to search on this Thread(on the right side).

Oh I see, meaning 720p eats more RAM than the 480p? If so then I think I'll go with 480p . Yep, I always give proper credits to the one's that help me , I would also like to thank you rather than just hit the Thanks button . And a few last questions, is it best to use Lupus Kernel or Turbo on a JB ROM? And I've seen this:
* Flash FTF 62 or 79,if already have it,no need.
Does that mean that I have to find a suitable .62 or .79 Stock ROM for my device since I'm on .270 or should I should just flash the Kernel and ROM directly?

Yes, 720p eats more RAM then 480p. Your welcome . I don't know which one is best (and technically asking whats the best ROM/Kernel is not allowed in XDA), I mostly used Lupus Kernel but Turbo Kernel does have the ability to multiboot so its kind of a preference thing.
Oh, I just noticed you have the the R800at which means your phone is CDMA. I really cant help you much with this since I know very little when it comes to the CDMA model of the Xperia Play. Your going to have to do some research. What I know is that there should be no problem with the Kernels, what you need to look for is that the ROM you want to install on your Phone is made for the CDMA model of the Xperia Play(it usually states it on the tittle).
