You should try looking in stickies first. Then use the search tool to find, because there are lots of such topics.

Arc S is 'ayame', Arc is 'anzu'. Though depending on what you are looking for, certain Arc firmwares are also designed to work on Arc S (mainly CyanogenMod and that based ROMs).

I think I'm gonna flash Legacy Xperia CM 10.1 and there is only anzu version in their website, so I should flash it.
http://legacyxperia.basketbuild.com/index.php?dir=main/cm10.1/
And these are the steps:
1. Bootloader unlock
2. Fastboot flash boot boot.img from the rom thread
3. Flash Rom then gapps with CWM recovery
4. Wipes
right?

Do the wipes after using "fastboot flash boot boot.img", but before flashing ROM and Gapps.

First of all I apologize for the noob question but I spent more than 24h reading this forum and I wasn't be able to find a clear answer to my question.
I come from other devices (HTC and Samsung). All of them was unrouted and fixed up the bootloader, simply by myself...
Yesterday I went crazy and I bought a new ArcS (LT18s)...
Good price, good quality, why not!
Actually my ArcS is:
system Root using DooMLoRD - Easy Rooting Toolkit
unlocked the bootloader using the follow procedure http://unlockbootloader.sonyericsson.com/instructions
recovered after a OTA upgrade (Yes I'm an idiot, don't say a word)
i need to know if:
With a ROM (ex DooMLoRD - ICS Alpha or a doomed151 - Arconium) is included the Kernel or not?
and:
What kind of system i must follow to upgrade?
Thanks a lot
Perhaps I solved. Like a noob I haven't read this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1330314 is correct also if the device is LT15???
Better flash a LT18 firmware.
And for Arconium ROM DooMKernel is recommended.

Flash kernel via fastboot and boot recovery and install rom.zip

Thank you. This was my idea but I preferred to ask questions!
But...
I want to install this kernel:
[KERNEL][ARC/ARC S] Advanced Stock (with Recovery) [Rel:v01][Dt:1/JAN][FW:.42/58/62]
and under
[ requirements ]
stock SE 4.0.2.A.0.42/.58/.62 FW
This is the reason of my initial question:

'Cos I've 4.0.1.A.0.266 build

"Requirements" don't mean you must preflash .42/.58/.62
But its recommended.
.266 is this 2.3.2 or what? Sry noob question

Hi everyone.
I tried to find information about it, but i have not found.
I read somewhere that I can install only the rom based on the original firmware in my Xperia Arc S (LT18i), so I do not think i can do what I have in mind.
I would like to install a CM9 (or CM10 as soon as possible). Can i install a CM9 anzu (LT15i) on my device?
Thanks
Ofcourse!

There isn't any particular process or way to flash an anzu rom?

In fact there is. You should first flash a compatible kernel with fastboot or flashtool, and then the Rom itself. Sad, but true.

Folks, I just upgraded my ARC LT15i to Official .587 rom and USB Debugging is not working and the phone is painfully slow. Note: my SI was not listed to I flashed my phone using offical ICS rom .62 then when it had booted into ICS it prompted for upgrade into .587.
please help
thanks
make full wipe and test again if slow
install one of these - they're based on ICS and are blazingly fast Jelly Sandwhich or Xperia HD Ultimate

Just download version 7.4 and put on sd card and then flash with cwm. If you want to use version 8.2, you must download 8.0, flash it, download 8.1, flash it, and then download 8.2 and flash it lol. It's quite easy Follow the instructions on the post

1. Get it from Here
2. Yes, sure.
3. ICS17 is the modified stock kernel added more features than stock one
Hold on.......
If you've flashed the ics17 kernel then you've unlocked the bootloader yes?
Then scrap off any ics rom and flash Jellybean
