First of all, don't even think of using 4.0.3. One of the crappiest firmware Sony released.
For gaming, look at GB. ICS does not give the performance you are expecting.
Also, this might help you - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2097137

First, your Honami Rom its a ICS 4.0.X based.
But the Atomic one its GB 2.3.X based.
Two differente versions of android, thats why you cannot play games in Atomic that requires the minimum of android 4.0 (different APIs)
Now, if you want speed, stay in that atomic ROM, at the cost of not being able to install apps that requieres anything above 2.3.X (like 3.X or 4.0 or 4.1... you get it right?)
Or return to Honami (or try another based on ICS).
If your bootloader is unlocked then you may check any CM 10.x (android 4.1 to 4.3) or CM11 (android 4.4) based ROM and see if its fast enough for you.

[Q] Which ROM should i choose?

Hello everyone!
I want to install a new rom onto my arc s, but i don't know what should i choose?
There's the latest CAMPS (i like it because of the tablet mode) :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1928416
and Slim Bean :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1959054
and Jelly Bean 4.1.2:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1979829
and if anyone has another rom PLEASE give me a link.
Thank you.
Try them out and see.
I think CM10 from FXP is most stable AOSP
AOKP by KXP is most feature packed AOSP
But these don't have stock camera HDMI and such working.
If you want AOSP UI with stock features like Sony Camera and HDMI but is stable and fast maybe you should try my ROM beautiful ICS
If you want just a stock ROM with NXT features which is stable and fast then my favourite for that is jaders Ultimate HD Rom.
Depends on what you want

dinesh690, Thank you for your reply.
I REALLY like your rom, i just wish if you could make a jellybean version.
These threads aren't encouraged on the forums as no one can tell you what's best for you. The only way to find out is by going through the Development section, reading the changelogs/features and then trying them out for yourself. This is all part of the fun of being on one of the largest development communities available
Thanks

[Q] There Is the ROM ported official ICS ROM ?

I've know that
- 2011 devices are arc, Ray, Play, Neo, Pro
- They have officilal ICS ROMs.
- But only Play doesn't have.
It is right?
Actually I want official ICS ROM,
not custom rom.
Although its perfomence isn't good.
I just want to flash.
So...
there is any ICS ROM ported official ROM of other devices?
As similar as possible official ROM.
Thanks.

Ics beta for play,its official
http://www.mediafire.com/convkey/2c02/hwa6wevxht5aumsfg.jpg?size_id=5
Well, Neo L have (exactly) same hardware as Play (minus touchpads and physicly reversed camera) and it has official ICS. Few roms are based on that ics:
TrueAncestor, ICS Original+, Neo2Play, or you can just flash Neo L firmware if you want the "true taste" of (bloated ) ICS.
There are also Xplaystation ROM and Johnnzy's ROM based on ics beta for Play, fully working.
Working good on any kernel for Play (doomlords, lupus or turbo kernel).

I know it can be confusing, so it is best to flash kernel recommended by rom owner.
But, i can try to explain:
There are two (2) type of roms:
-Stock (based on sony's firmware)
-Aosp (or aokp, cm or miui)
So, you have Stock gb and ics, but no Stock jb.
For Aosp based roms, you have cm7 as gb based, cm9 as ics based and cm10 as jb based (i don't know what is miui based on)
To be able to boot rom, you need kernel that match type of rom you want to install.
Some version of kernels can boot dual type roms:
Example:
1: ics/gb Stock - can boot ics and gb roms based on Stock firmware
2: ics/gb cm - can boot ics and gb based on aosp ics gb roms
3:lupus v8 jb can boot Aosp jb and Aosp ics roms, and MAYBE that's the
kernel you are searching.
The best way is to search in kernels thread based on rom you want to install

I didn't flash recently any miui roms, do they have kernel inside the rom's zip file? Or was it inside cm roms?

dude, that makes a lot of sense, ever since i installed the kernel that i mentioned earlier i have been having random issues with some custom roms
usun lupus ics v12 720 on verizon xperia play
Gin2jelly bean rom is not recognized by my computer and wom was amazing but i dont like when developers put too much apps in it . i guess the problem was the kernel i am using
ICE CREAM PURENESS : laggiest thing ever, dont know why
[ROM][GSM] Gamer 4 [Ultimate Sony experience], this rom i wanted to install because it has on screen softkey buttons. so i could use those instead of the hardware one, but have to uninstall because the didnt appear on screen and has lots of apps.
SLIMBEAN: WELL I COULDNT INSTALL IT AND KERNEL KEPT ON BOOTING LIKE CRAZY.
NOW I AM BACK WITH THE BEST ICS ROM IN MY OPINION THE TRUE ANCESTOR FINAL EDITION, WHICH I LOVE BUT IT DOESNT HAVE THE SOFTKEY BUTTONS
but now that you clarify this i might try to flash a jelly bean kernel since google claims that jellybean is the one to beat lag.
THANK YOU GUYS FOR REPLYING.
greetings from a real newbie
Well, just to add, if you want gaming perfomance, use gb roms. Ics is stable these days, but little slower then gb in gaming. Jb is only Aosp based, it's good in gaming, but some things are still "work in progress".
Ps: we where all noobs at some point
Ask whatever you want (just do not ask for ETA)

what does ETA mean? see i am a noob xD
ICSNEO2PLAY thats what i read at the end of all your posts, i assume you use that rom
TELL ME ABOUT THAT ROM, IT SEEMS THAT I CAN ALREADY INSTALL IT SINCE I HAVE AN ICS KERNEL.
DOES IT HAVE ON SCREEN BACK HOME AND TASK BUTTONS?

Eta is asking when something will come out. Neo2play is the Rom that he made and its in his Signature that's why you see it in all his posts. That rom doesn't haven't screen buttons but it does give you lots of choice in what you use to fully customize your phone through aroma installer. It should work if you have an ics kernel but it has to be a stock ics kernel not aosp. If your using true ancestor then that means neo2play should work on the sane kernel
Sent from my Xperia Play (r800x)
True ancestor rom, as my rom also, is based on Stock ics for Neo L (since that phone have exactly same hardware as play, minus touchpafs). My rom came out later, but i modded it more, and put aroma installer with bunch of rom options (gamers like less things installed, casual gamers sacrifice ram for the sake of extra stuff).
Some roms have osb (on screen buttons), but you'll have to search for it.
Sent from my R800i using xda app-developers app
If you really want osb then you can use markphytons nxt ics revolution rom. He removed it from xda but you can probably find a link for it somewhere in q&a section

[Q]

Hello lads, this is Shawiee.
I was running on SVHD 2.1 android 4.0.4, sense 4.1 but I want a higher android because of emojis as they're not supported on ICS. Can you guys please give me any recommendation of a custom ROM running android 4.1+, but it has to be fast and bug-free, the other things doesn't matter. I've been trying to install custom ROMS but the only ones that are blazing fast and bug free are the Sensed ROMS. Any of you got a good Custom ROM for me?
