how to return to stock? - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello!
I'd like to revert the phone 100% to stock state (now I have a modified rom, kernel, but event don't remember where it was taken from) in order to prepare to install CM11.
PC Companion says that it will not help as I have modified software. I cannot even find links to download 4.1.B.0.587.
Could anyone help please? I'm very sorry if I duplicate threat but I really cant find any topic with working links.

Did you actually bother searching?
Since you didn't bother mentioning, which phone you have, I'll just post the link for Arc S right now.

Wrong section in the first place. People nowadays are just too lazy to post in the right section, just like how they are to lazy to press the search button or scroll a few pages.
Next time, questions go to Q&A, not General section.

voice recognition not working!!!

my voice search or voice text isnt working i never had this issue before i flashed to fresh 1.0.1 and also my accounts and sync button in the settings page fc, any help thanks!
i had the same issue on fresh, the old version it worked just fine, but i am sure it will be fixed in the next update, his roms have been very good
ok, you should expect this thread to be moved very quickly. Not trying to flame you or anything, just to let you know why...
First, this forum is for development related topics. Building a rom, kernel, app, etc... then here is where you should post a thread.
Looking for general help, post in the Q&A forum. Help with this or that, help my whatever isn't working, etc... those are Q&A type thread topics. They don't belong in development.
In this case however... your best bet for finding a solution would be to search the Fresh 1.0.1 thread. See if anyone else has had the issue with the rom and if a fix is already posted there. It seems your issue is a function of trying the fresh 1.0.1 rom which is discussed in that thread so use that thread.
If your search doesn't turn up anything, then post your question in the fresh thread, not as it's own thread in the development forum. Doing so cluters up the forum and makes it hard to find relevant info (relevant to development topics) and won't be welcomed in general.
You should always start by using the search function of the forum before posting a new thread. Can't say if you did or didn't, just saying this is always the place to start.
Be prepared for this thread to get moved out of dev in short order for the reasons I've stated. It's probably already happening as I type this.
Good luck in your search for a solution...
Just use the included ES File Explorer and browse to the fresh-removed-apks inside you will see VoiceSearch. Just install that apk file and your voice seach should work once more.
To the above poster thank you so much for being so polite while at the same time telling the OP what he did wrong.

Questions About i8160L

I have a galaxy ace i8160L, and i want to install custom roms, but i see that there is a model i8160 WIthout L (and i see other with i8160P), dont know where to start, and i dont know if i can use all the tutorials from i8160 to i8160L. I dont want to brick the phone for doing something wrong, also, if there is any way to avoid flash counter that would be great (i see a flashable for CWM but for i8160, so dont know if can be use it with i8160L)
Any help is appreaciate. thanks
Search around the Ace II general forums. There was one or two guidez on how to make this possible. For gingerbread only so far. also, I'm not sure but maybe you can use the manual flash counter reset using terminal.
oh by the way, there's a q and a thread and its stickied, any further questions that are not related to this should be posted there since most of the users are monitoring that thread therefore a better chance to get an answer.
Nevermind my sig, its my sig in XDA app.
Is pressing "THANKS" to hard to do? If you think my post is helpful then click that button! Ungrateful bast***s​
You should ask in the Question and Answer Thread, not making new threads for just a single question.
And i8160L is the NFC version, there are a few ROMs as mentioned by Dro1ne and you can try installing non-L ROMs but you'll most likely to lose your NFC functions and a little chance of brickings. CMIIW though.
Should one see another pointless thread without asking it in the Q and A Thread, don't reply to it and let the thread sink to bottomless pit of hell.
EDIT: sorry for the harsh language, it's just really getting annoying when I see new threads but just asking a single question of not the same question again and again.
ok, sorry, i search first but still no clear, i will ask a last question there.thanks for your time.
Dont worry, i understand, was my mistake. i just want to see if keep the phone or not, i already have another android, but this is just because a friends need it and want custom roms like mine.

People are just too lazy to look around. Everything is here but it's too much of a hassle to put one sentence in the search bar. And you really think that General section is better than Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting for this thread?
well if im the only one then why i see you whining like a little girl in every thread? if u dont have nothing to answer to my question please SHUT UP
now it will just stay as a spam thread for no reason and yes im lazy because instructions are not clear. do i go directly yo me7 or mb2/4 first. so yeah thanks for the help
Your thread was spam, and in wrong section from the beginning. Read forum rules, read some basic topics and don't tell me to shut up.
P.S. Please consider investing in glasses if you don't see better place to ASK QUESTION
well... i wouldnt but u just keep writing the same in your answer. we learn from mistakes dont we? stop spaming me what i already know....
DELETE THIS THREAD.

to install CM, you need to go to JB first because it needs CWM 6.
for the JB version, choose your ace 2‘s region (i have Indonesian Ace 2, so I use Indonesian JB ROM). you can use others region but avoid chinese region because it has different signal and also check if your ace 2 is P or L type because it has different ROMs
do you need to go to mb2/mb4? don‘t know yet because I didn‘t test all JB roms. For my region‘s rom, I can directly go to JB from GB
for the instruction how to upgrade and where are the roms.. please search...

MIUI v5 Xperia S and Aptoide

Hope to be in the right section (if it's not...well...I'm sorry)
I have this problem with Aptoide on MIUI (it doesn't matter the build): MIUI Antivirus sees it as a virus and than it deletes it and to use it I have to do a wipe and to install it as first app, otherwise I cannot install it. Someone else had this problem? Any idea if there's a way to fix it? It's just in this period, it never happened until now.

How can I move my question? If I try to publish it again the forum does not allow me to do it. Because there's a similar thread

[Q] ODON rollback to 4.4

Is there already a thread with the files or could somebody link me??? Please and thank you!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3063452
The thread is a few spots below yours. If you would've scrolled down, before making this thread, you would've found your answer. Make sure you thoroughly check before creating a thread so this section of the forum doesn't get clustered up with the same questions over and over again.
Also it's Odin, not Odon. Use Odin version #3.09 to roll back to Kitkat.
Sorry I wasn't able to locate it. There's an ad taking over 50% of the entire left side of the the site and I'm unable to view topic titles or the majority of the site. As for the ODIN misspelling, you can thank Apple.
In any regard, thanks for the link.
