[Q] Custom ROM for xperia arc

I am looking for a good rom for my xperia arc. Currently stock ICS 4.04 is installed(not rooted) and i am looking for a rom which provide better performance and better RAM management. I have checked various threads and realized that most of custom rom out there are buggy some of them does not support HDMI some having issues with WIFI etc . So, please suggest me a ram which is best in terms of performance without having these major bugs. I want bravia engine, Xloud, Mega Bass etc phone features which improve its audio/display quality and i donot want all those bloat ware timescape, integrated facebook etc which slows down the phone. Considering this please suggest the best rom. If possible please refer a link/complete guide how to root/unlock bootloader(if required) to install that ram. Any help would be appriciated.

Yep.

CM9 if you want ICS
CM10 if you want JB (some stuff still doesn't work as it supposed to)
But in my opinion, other than those two I mentioned above, the best custom ROM is debloatwared-supercharged-updated adreno libs-minimally init.d tweaked STOCK ROM with your favorite custom kernel.
Look at my sig for my stock ROM mix and match in general. I also use aeon's lockscreen and smallapps port, custom systemui.apk, cybershot mod, and acid audio engine mod. Stock ROM with that config is more than enough for me. Fast and stable

Kernel and Rom are 2 diff things. The kernel doesnt change wen u flash a rom. The main thing here is that, if u r flashing ics based rom den u shud hav ics based kernel. That means u r now on stock kernel and ultimate hd v2 rom.
If u wanna flash adv stock kernel, there is a link on the ultimate hd thread. You ll hav to use fastboot for flashing kernels.
About lucky patcher, in ultimate v2 there is some prob with it. The dev is going to fix it in ultimate v3.

[Q]MIUI V5 official released for Xperia s?

Isn't it possible to flash MIUI v5 and then flash the stock JB kernel on it to make it work as there is an official build?

Actually, it doesn't say in the thread.
Can someone please confirm this?

anyone?

As far as I know, Xiaomi has already given up on XS development.
The rom on the thread is a CM based rom ported to XS.

MiuiV5 stockBased, MiuiV5 by iHackers or ExistenZ?

What is the Rom with better performance? I want to try MIUI, but i remember that the MIUI of iHackers had the problem of "non in market apps" (like Unicredit App). How is the stock based by balcangsm? Thank you very much. (battery life is very important for my decision).

All are good ROMs.. MIUI by iHackers is only for UB.. MIUI stock based is mainly for smoothness, good battery backup and indeed done for LB.. eXistenZ has completely Sony Xperia Honami aka Z1 UI in it.. Complete port of Z1 framework in it.. So more like Stock Honami in ur SXS..

The official end of the package a good point

So are You suggesting me to use miui by Ihacker or miui stock based? i have ub, root..

Thank you, and do you think is better, for gaming, a stock 4.1, an "unstable" CM 4.1;4.2 , or a Cyanogen Stable cm9? Thank you in advance!

i never tried CM so i cant tell ,, but i had seen around some users complain about game crash on CM based
agian you can try and see by yourself

Stock, aosp or cm10 roms are best
Stock - stable but lacks graphics smoothnesd
Aosp - no stable working ones
Cm10- some games dont work or crash often BUT has best performance
Everything kinda folows especialy if you test this with max graphics on GTA 3 or real racing (have to mod to do)
Like i said cm10 or stock
Battery, stock based has superiour battery once you turm on extended battey mode (jb of course)
Honnestly i use stock based roms

Xperia keyboard has been ported to all roms already, go to Android development > Android apps and games and search for it, download zip and flash via recovery.

This is a custom ROM.
So what I mean is: this is NOT official ROM from Samsung, but it is built from a firmware like that (stock based ROM), so You will have all the Spen features and Sasmung stuff. It is rooted, You probably trigger your knox flag and Your warranty will be void.
Non stock based ROMS are others that don't support all samsung apps, like Snote, Multiwindow etc. These are for example: Cyanogenmod, AOSP, AOKP, AOSB, Paranoid Android, MIUI and others.

To make it easier for you to understand ,the ROM link you provided is "stock" samsung ROM but the difference is it's "pre rooted" (but you still got to update to latest SuperSu by chainfire for the apps to detect it's root) and it's dedoxed. It has NO note 3 or Samsung S5 modded apps ,if you want to a ROM with note 3/s5 apps go for DN3RC2 or Jellykat v5 both are based on leaked NC2 firmware (the official one is ND3). As you said you are on stock 4.3 so there's a guide made available by a fellow xda user @smeet.somaiya where you don't need to root or worry about deknoxing ,link to his Thread.Follow his guide if you don't want to root your phone yet

Yes, mostly any custom ROM is better than a stock ROM.
It's faster and it has mostly more features, for example You may have Note 3 and S5 features (however not all of them if our phones don't have a proper hardware for it, f.e. fingerprint scanner etc.)
To install other ROM it's mostly recommended to do a full wipe, as upgrading may result in many "Force closes" or the phone won't even boot.
So always wipe data, dalvik cache when changing to other ROM.

tnx
can you tell me guys what custom rom is better than all custom roms ? DN3 or jellycat ? (on android 4.4)

it's a LEAKED stock rom before official French 4.4.2 release.
it does have more tweaked function but is a customized one. it also doesn't work like DrKetan_MultiTool as it doesn't provide other fumctionality other than to flash the rom.

Somehow the DN3 couldn't boot at my note. From stock based ROMs I used only AirCommand ROM and it was working pretty well, however I personally prefer CM-based ROMs, they are much faster and support ART.
