I got my dad this device around an year. It had worked fine so far but has recently started having issues. Apps not installing. Installed apps are disappearing. With his limited tech capability, I am finding it hard to troubleshoot he device (we both are in different countries). Is there any app out there that can be used to control the device remotely over the internet to troubleshoot it? The Xperia Arc S is running on ICS rooted,

Switch the app processing mode (under preferences) to classic. It's not ideal but it works.

Ya, that's what I read in another thread, with the same question.
i did it without any effect..now cant even unninstall anything with TB.
all i did was a root. and i wanted back up my stuff (apps) and remove some that i wont use.
i can backup - but not freeze or unninstal now-
EDIT: --|>Dont mind me --i found it.. You have to keep switching between the modes at all the time... anoying but at least working
Have you notified the developer?

It works absolutely fine for me. It might be worth running root checker from the market.

I had this problem yesterday upon flashing 4.0.2. The way I fixed it was by updating its bootloader to the latest OTA one.
No need to change modes. TN has been updated for ICS and works 100% now with the Galaxy Nexus
I have a problem with the GPS on my arc S.
If the GPS hasn't been used recently, then it does not lock on to satellites unless I restart the phone, no matter how long I leave it. However, if I restart the phone it normally gets a fix on satellites very quickly.
It's really annoying to have to restart the phone every time I want to the use the GPS. I've tried using the app "GPS status" to clear the the cached GPS data but it doesn't help.
Any ideas how to fix this? Thank you.
Look in play store for app called faster fix.
Install and follow instructions.( not sure if you if root)
You could look in android dev section for speeding up gps there is tut there but you need root for this.

Thanks! :highfive: I'll give that a try. I thought you meant the arc android dev section not the main one, that why I couldn't find it!
All anti theft softwares fail when it comes to turning off the device, its is no longer trackable. Or someone may flash new rom?
Is there anything which can prevent flashing new rom or turning off the device using password or any security?
Or can anyone develope any such thing???

There are many that claim to do the same as you mentioned. except for flashing a new rom.
I don't think there's any app that could prevent from flashing or could sustain even after it
I haven't tested any
This one's a good, my friend uses it, i like the features

Myxperia app is available to download on stock rom. Check the fb page of xperia s.
But the other anti thefts are far better than this. I used it, n my xs startd lagging after few days with a lot of battery drain. So I uninstalled it

it also fails if the thief factory resets your phone...which is what usually they do...no use of myXperia...why cant google design some good software that is immune to factory resets? at least sony...plz link myXperia to IMEI instead of google account...
Hey all, I have a Rogers NFC Sim for my S3 running the latest CM 10.1 nightly. I was looking to use the CIBC Mobile Payment App available in the Play Store here. Of course it won't appear in the Store on my device because the device identifies itself differently than a stock Rogers S3, so I grabbed the APK from here, however the app simply won't install when I open it from my file explorer.
How can I forcibly install this app? My hardware is compatible with this app so this should just be a question of using some magic to trick the APK into installing.

I'm trying yet again to get mobile payment working on my phone as well.
I'm simply astonished that nobody has ever found an actual way to hide rooting on a phone. I'm not a developer, but really, how hard could it possibly be? if we have root we should be able to do ANYTHING to trick an app that doesn't have root in to not knowing root is there. why hasn't anyone come up with a sandbox for these stupid apps yet???
(and don't show me links to any of the dozens of "root hiding" apps, I've never found a single app that checks for root that is fooled by any of these.)
anyone figured out a workaround yet?
Stopped being an issue ages ago for me (this thread is 3 years old). The CIBC app now works happily on many more devices, including rooted ones.

We just don't get it. Old Xperia L could play it, but the S3 get's no love on the game for some reason,.
Its an issue with 4.3 on the S3 and I don't know why they haven't been able to fix it. I did get it to run a while back but had to install an older version that I knew worked because I used to run it
Yeah the older versions worked perfectly but the new one is not.

This new versions been out for a while. I dont think theyre doing a bug fix.
Ps: does anyone know how to disable the update notification in the old versions. i cant play with data/wifi on because it keep bugging me to update to the new version. it takes me to the market and as you know its "incompetible"
If enough people email the dev it might motivate them to fix it. Especially if everyone starts demanding refunds and leaving poor reviews. No guarantee of course, but its more guaranteed that nothing will happen if no one tries to make it happen!
In app manager most apps have a checkbox for display notifications. Maybe that'll help?

I have found a solution. I was browsing Samsung's galaxy app store and saw asphalt 8 being featured so I was like what the hay, so I installed it and it runs perfectly! Maybe they forgot to unblock the S3 from when it was having problems at Google play? Anyways give it a try!
