Arc Suggestion - Xperia Arc General

Hey guys,
I have an xperia arc with the original 4.0.4 software. Well it work pretty ok except that that the widgets pages freeze after a few minutes (they dont refresh the clock is sat 15:30 but the clock widget is stuck at 13:03 (for example)). Also if I try to install adobe flash to watch some flv movies the whole phone goes wild .. also many mp4 movies that on 2.3 i was watching with no problems now I can't watch. Also my sd card it's "unavailable" via usb after that update...
I tried the repair option from pc companion that installs a new software and no changes. So i decided to try installing a custom software. But I don't know what to install (never installed a custom software on android before...tried to root the 2.3 once and got stuck in boot loop).
So any suggestion what I should install that works mostly ok and also an easy guide of how to install it ? (I'm also thinking about rooting)
Thank you,
CatalinG.

This sounds so annoying that I would flash another stock Rom.
Jjhibrid is the best option for stock.
You could also explore unlocking the BL for custom Fw.
In any affect I would flash a new Rom. Or look into cwm recovery

[Q] Best Android Version For Calls, Gaming and Surfing

First of all, I'm sorry if there is a thread similar to this, or with the same purpose. I'm opening this thread because I've tried almost every mod for LG GT540 and I don't know what to use anymore...
Been a long Cyanogen mod user, I've now changed to Super Fast Froyo and I find it really as it says SUPER FAST.
What I'm asking you is, if you can tell me what is the best mod for playing games the phone wasn't designed for (any 3D game), surfing (without force closes), and using the phone as a PHONE (calls, messages - without force closes)
I've tried OpenSwift (don't know what version) about 3 months ago.. and I was able to play games, but in that time the mod wasn't stable...
Also, Cyanogen 7 (2.3.3) and I wasn't able to play games.. though the phone worked smooth, with some force closes and few restarts..
I've searched lots of forums, but everywhere there are persons saying this is better than that and vise versa..
That's normal yea.. but got tired of that, and decided to open a thread here..
About the games not playing.. well I maybe am a beginner.. but I've tried everything I could..
Any help appreciated ..
Thanks.
Stay on a custom 2.1 rom it will solve all ur problems..
Use swap for speed.
Link sd for unlimited storage space.
Nothing is as stable as 2.1 version.

I agree with sanmit that everything works in 2.1 and for games is good. So you should stay in one of the many good custom versions out there. And check the other posts until devs cook something worth it to change again. Now mur4ik has released version 2.0. So will see how it goes and inform

Thanks for replying!
I've decided to go with Elegance Swift 2.1, but I have a problem now... I can't flash it with Clockwork Recovery... it says "installation aborted"
I have wiped user data, phone, cache.. everything but it just doesn't work.. Is there a way to do this with fastboot? That's lots easier.. but I see a file called "data.img" here and don't know how to write that on phone
Thanks.
buya new phone?
just sayin, i dont think the gt540 is the best one for gaming. as its not capacitive screen. so you cant play mario or something smooth. but yeah as said above the stock 2.1 is the best. as i hav the SwiftDroid milestone1 V2.0 android 2.3.3 the battery dies too quick to play many games.
I don't want new phone lol
by the way... I found out how to install via Recovery.. but now my phone won't boot.. it's stuck on LG LOGO...
I can't post in developers threads.. and I can only ask here..
hi mate you need to flash both the recovery image and the boot image that should get your phone working again

Well.. I flashed clockwork recovery (if that's what you meen) and using CR i used the option restore to actually install the Elegance Swift 2.1 mod
do i have to flash the boot image after i did this with fastboot or?
EDIT
Did use fastboot for boot.img, still the same problem...
if you flashed via recovery then the boot.img should have been included in the backup so in what i will do is download the rom your tring to use and make a fresh backup and upload it for you
link me to the thread you downloaded the rom from

this is what I used (with Clockwork Recovery 3.0.0.5 - i know that there is newer)
ok give me half an hour and ill get you a working version of this
uploading now for you i have included the easy flash tool
download this and put your phone in fastboot mode then run the start me.bat in the zip folder hopefully that should work

Thanks for the effort .. but I'm getting FAILED (data transfer failure (Too many links))
when trying to send system.img to phone
EDIT
I'm using XP SP3, does that changes anything? :\
EDIT 2
Can you just tell me how to do this with Clockwork?
to do it via recovery copy the zip file you and me downloaded to to the root of your sd card then go into recovery and select install update zip then select choose update zip and then select the zip file you copied to the root of the sd card

Thanks a lot for you time and help
no problem anytime
I think that CM7 is a lot better than 2.1 in many terms. (battery is worse, but it still lasts 2 days)
Use the stock 2.1 thats the best for your wishs...
Its the most useful...
i try everything but always back to stock or soft mod 2.1

[q] a story and few questions...........

hi all... i got a wildfire 1 week before with android 2.2 and hboot 1.01.0002, then i downgraded it to 1.01.0001 using goldcard method, and s-off(making hboot 6.01.1002???) it with alpharevex( unrevoked cant do it for me, stuck in "waiting for root.....", even though i used the custom test version meant for wildfire (3.2 beta test)) AND alpharevx flashed it with cwm v4.0.1.4. then rooted it with ginger break .
then i tested it with cyanogen7 build 711211 nightly, ruymanca v6 final, with buzz kernal 2.6.32,hcdr kernal v4.2 beta using install zip method. but i cand do it with sone zip like ovc jacob 2.6.32 v1 and some other zip( kernal overclocking zips) and also wild puzzle rom v.8, cwm saying some script error in which the support of these scripts have been removed since cwm changed its version to support gingerbread recoveries. so i cant do it from cwm 4.XXX. then i loaded cm7 and installed rommanager 4.3.2.4 premium. but rome manager always said to flash cwm , though i have the latest cwm in my phone. so i flashed once again with a cwm 2.5.0.7, and booted to recovery and tried to install the previously failed zips, this time cwm can do it with out any error. but after loading the flashed rom, i once again rebooted to recovery. and the cwm is again back to v4.0.14!!!!!!!!!! . what had i done?? previously i boot it into cwm 2.5.07 and now its back to 4.0.1.4!
now i want to get some help from u people..
Q1) why cant i downgrade cwm to 2.5, i dont really like cwm v4.xxx, coz i think there are some bugs in it, taking long time to do things and fix permission works rarely. but with v2.5 it is smooth, also support old scripts.
Q2) is there any advantage in using new cwm?
Q3) why rommanager cant detect the new cwm, saying to flash it with old cwm? the manual flash override function never worked for me!!!
Q4) is there any way to add support to old scripts to new cwm?or how can i do updates from that kind of zips?
Q4) is there any problems with mixing up(flashing) different kernals and roms? i know what is a rom, but know little about kernal.
Q5) what is the best radio update i can get, i need good network and a good battery life. i am not locked to any network, and i want 2 use different networks sim. if i flash a radio, will i be locked to any frequency?
pls help me in finding ans for these, as i am a newbe to android, my previous experience was with a x10 mini of my friend, which we flashed with cwm and rooted, all with the help of xda lessons. thanks to all who make xda the best.

1. On wildfire, flashing secondary recovery from rom manager is only temporary. That means it comes only when you reboot to recovery from the option in rom manager itself. Alternatively, you can boot into 4.x recovery and first install the update.zip (created by rom manager on the root of sdcard) which gives you temporary 2.x recovery to flash old files. That is not a bug in 4.x but amend scripting files (older) are not supported by 4.x recovery.
2. Yes there is. The most important is to get rid of the offline charging bug (apart from newer recoveries add new features.)
3. Rom manager can flash 2.x and 3.0.0.6 recoveries on sdcard (at the moment). However it can't replace the original recovery on wildfire. It can only flash and boot into a temporary recovery ( by reading from a file on sdcard).
4. Yes you can. The 2.x recovery can flash amend files only whereas 3.x or higher recovery can flash edify files only. There is an appliaction called "amend to edify converter". Google it.
--as far as you use wildfire kernels, I think there wont be any problem using them with any wildfire rom.
5. If your wildfire is A3333 one then flash the latest radio that ends with 20.10. You won't loose any frequency. But you will loose some frequency on flashing it if your wildfire is A3335 one.

how can i know if mine is a3333 or a3335?
thank u for such a fast reply buddy.
i searched xda and find most of my ans from a thread named "complete wildfire index". u people are so much supporting. no question why xda is the greatest android forum. thank u all
also xda apk is not working??? in my phone, it takes too much time to load!!!!!!!!.why is it so? i realy want it,so that i can stay tuned. ls help
Remove your battery cover and the battery. The model will be written just above your IMEI number there. Also, XDA App does indeed take a long time to load, especially for the first time, it's pretty normal I will assume.
For checking A3333 or A3335 see under the battery (ofcourse on the phone) or on the purchase box.
And regarding xda android app, verify that you have decent internet connection like atleast edge. And when opening app everytime, it takes lot of time because it loads all the forums by default. What I suggest is, open the app for 1st time, and login with your account. Then add your desired forums to "favourites". Then enter the app settings and set the default view to "favourites". From now it wont take that long time during app startup. I too use xda app from mobile always. Waiting for few more updates of it (like thank button and etc..).

Hey i flashed the latest radio,it workz like a cham. And i think it gives me more range(catches network signals more good)i assume so.is it right? And abt xda, lol i am in the track now, workz nice now.just i gave it some time 2 load.and every thing is ok.
Now i hav another question, what is the benifit of ext4 over ext3.i am now using ext3,with a2sd script,and moves almost all my app using app2sd to my sd,having 512mb ext3 and 64mb swap, i am using windows and so i cant realy partition sd to ext3,though i wish 2 have 1gb ext 3,i had done above partition using rom manager,and the max size it showed me is 512mb for my 8gb class 4 card, also what is the benifit of giveing more swap space?
I tried 2 move dalvic cache to sd, but it gave me frequent restarts, and phone behaves crazy when i remove the sd, so i avoided that, and reinstalled cm7 latest build and aplied a2sd script in it along with ram optimizing script,now itz fine. But i never find the support of a2sd script for wildfire in face book support page of the script developer, any body tried this in wildfire? 4 me i find no problem at all. Pls info me if it has any prblm.

Guys please help me

I've recently upgraded from Froyo Pro to GingerDx V019. My phone was working perfectly alright. I loved the rom, it was fast and almost bug free.
My phone was having CWM 3.2.0.0 so I decided to upgrade it to 4.0.1.5 I downloaded the file CWM-recovery-4.0.1.5-e15-Amend.zip and flashed it through XRecovery. After flashing, when I rebooted the phone, my phone refused to start. It just got stuck at Sony Ericsson Logo. I removed the battery and started it again but problem is not solved.
Guys please help me to recover my phone back.
the problem is that gingerdx is not compatible with the newer cwm
you have to restore the older cwm
simply flash the update.zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=616283&d=1307259517
in recovery then your phone should boot again
PS: sorry form my bad english and tell me if it worked
If you can enter xrecovery, flash back GingerDX v013 or you can restore the backup that you have make one. Last method is to use SEUS Companion but you must have a really good broadband connection to download its but then you need reroot back your X8
Thanks djnilse and phoenix883 for the replies.
I restored my phone back to eclair 2.1 using SEUS. Re-rooted it and again upgraded back to GingerDx. The phone is back to normal now.
Other problem I'm facing now is playing video on 2.3. I tried 2/3 apps but none of them are working. Any idea which apps is suitable?
For video, you can try Moboplayer, but you need to convert if the format is other than 3GP or MP4 at 320 x 480 res, futhermore X8 is so bad when it play H264 codec. At least it must be above than 720p because we dont have 1ghz cpu. To download youtube video, you can use tubemate. Cheers
to play videos on your x8 with the integrated video player
i personally use the sony phones converter from dvdvideosoft.com
just select Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 in the options and the quality u want
(sorry that there is no link, cant post links yet)
i tried vitalplayerpro and rockplayer from the market both work flawlesslesy no need for wasting time in conversion i just directly drop movie on sd card and watch it
should have know this before
have wasted many time in converting
i gonna use this in future
thx buddy
) if you at least have tried,now you know
Sent from my XPERIA X8 using XDA Premium App
Well, VitalPlayer worked for me but for playing 3gp files only.
Rockplayer just get FC on my GingerDx V019.
I have the same problem. When your phone stuck after CFW 4.1.5 instalation at SE logo just go to xrecovery(pressing back button). When you enter the xrecovery than you must to install GingerDX v0.19 again. When you installed them than you must to click Reboot with CWM. When you reboot your phone you were entered in CWM 4.1.5 !

I tried all that, but my phone just refused to start or even go to XRecovery. That is the reason I'd used SEUS, to restore the stock os and upgrade to 2.3.

[Q] ROM Manager vs Acer Recovery Installer

So I am getting a A500 soon and been looking into rooting/flashing. I am a complete noob but from what I can tell the device will come with 3.0 which means it will be rootable via gingerbreak apk.
after that, the guides say I will need to flash cwm recovery. most of the guides say to install acer recovery from the marketplace, however there also seems to be ROM Manager which is very popular but I could not find any info if it works with A500.
So which one should I be using? It seems ROM manager comes with an updated version of CWM compared to Acer Recovery Installer. Will ROM manager work with the A500?
no
you can not use rom manager..
the acer recovery installer is used to install . thors .Recovery.. its a custom version of CWM. c. its designed for the a500 ONLY.. and its the ONLY one you can use on our device to date..
also after you get the acer recovery installer installed go to tegraowners.com yo get the latest version . i think 1.6.2 of the cwm recovery. you can flash it by putting it on your sd card and use acer recovery installer...
PLEASE THANK BOTH DEVELOPERS AND PAY PAL THEM.. Without them we would all be boring and stuck on stock. PEOPLE ARE TO Colorful and different to be forced to be all alike
If you are android 3.2 or above os . you will need to look at the downgrade to update to 3.2 and above or fallow the post by Timmy Dean. with his back door exploit . this is all due to the encrypted boot loader
Good Luck and fallow all instructions . you will be no longer a virgin soon.. Giggles
Listen to Erica. DO NOT USE Rom Manager. Just because somebody has a newer recovery, does not mean it is meant for your device They are all different.
But,,,, if you want to listen to what the phone guys say, by all means,,, use it. See what happens If you haven't noticed, that thing sitting on the table, is a lot bigger than a phone. And, it has a different operating system on it.
Run the acer recovery, like she said. THen flash thors recovery. You can always go to his site later, and upgrade it. Takes 5 minutes.
Don't wanna sound rough, but trying to keep you from bricking your tab.

where can we pick up acer recovery & thors recovery? I am familiar with GB and previous. My a500 was rooted before the camera screen magically cracked and when I got it back from Acer they had of course wiped it and updated it to 3.2 so I was unable to use gingerbreak anymore. Since then it has run horribly. It was slow stock before I rooted it the first time but now it has become almost unbearable. I just finished rooting and need to figure out whether I am going to get acer recovery off the market (is that where or is it in the threads here along with thors recovery??)
Thanks in advance

Acer recovery is available in the market. The supplied recover image is ok for flashing roms. so don't worry.
But, if you want his newest recovery (after installing from acer recovery), then aftwerwards, go to tegraowners and get his newest recovery. Just copy the zip to sd, and flash. No wipes needed.

I got it installed just now (acer recover) and chose thor's cwr as the boot image. Where do I find *tegraowners*? is it a site? is it a link in the app? on the market?
Thanks!! Trying to figure out which rom to flash now..suggestions?
*Update* - Flashed Taboonay. Still very open to suggestions since this is the actual first time I've been able to flash a rom to my tablet. Been able to do it to a lot of SGS1's (mesmerize, vibrant, captivate & SGSII Att variant) but always had trouble with the acer. Since I got it back from acer for broken camera lens it was stock and was to the point it was unbearably slow. Given I had a lot of crap apps on there but still my captivate before it died ran faster than the acer. I'm just looking for a bloatware free rom that's fast, silky smooth. I don't need a bunch of add on animations and crap. I just want it to work & work well ...
Thoughts & ideas appreciated.

Any of the Near stock rooted roms.. is always the best bet for reliability and comparability. With that said i think Thors rom is the fastest. I use the honeylicious icy rom with some personal touches that suit me..
i would say most important thing is.. I see you kinda unclear on the whole rom/flashing procedures.. With that i suggest to go in the dev forums and read threads to post about flashing roms and rom versions.. Nobody can tell you whats right for you..
Good luck and HAPPY SAFE FLASHING...

Thanks for the feedback Erica. I already did taboonay and see that it is not quite as smooth as I'd like. I don't know why my tab seems to be slightly sluggish or jittery but it is. I'm dl thors v14.2 atm and will give it a try. Now that I have cwr (or variation there of) installed doing any flashing should be a breeze.
Google date restore after flashing
LAGGY FEELING..
this is something i have had a issue with
after installing a new rom.. during the initial setup.. while setting up your google account you have two options one to turn on google backup.. one is to restore.. Turn this feature off if you do not care about your previous data that google collected.. Sometimes it will load crap back on your rom/device that caused the issues to begin with . it will even load some of the acer apps that the rom developer removed..
i dont use this service from google at all.. I take nanandroid backups with cwm . but for my apps and app data i use TI Backup.. thou its not the most user friendly experience . it required a bit of setup and expects the user to understand there terms.. they have a very good help files on there site if this helps you.. after i reflash a rom one click run of ti i can restore my tablet including all apps there data shortcuts on home screen with widgets and so on.. But im sorry that i cant help you set yours up i dont know enought to do so ..

Have you heard of/tried Rom Toolbox?
Read the description of that app.
its based on the rom manager code. with some added tools it looks like...I DO NOT think its in any way compatible.
AGAIN . THE ONLY RECOVERY ROM MANAGEMENT FOR OUT Acer iconia a500 is .
Acer Recovery Installer.
Thors Recovery Partition..
of course as always adb. (don't ask ) developer.android.com i think is url
I use no add on tools or memory task managers android can do this well on its own..

Rom toolbox, was not made for HC 3.2, It was made for gingerbread. 2.3
Some features work. Some, well,,,,,,,,,
Lag in the screen apps, it is HC 3.2 Can't fix it for now.
Well, it's not smooth as some "phones". It works, so until 4.0 releases, it's what we have.

[Q] Problems with GT540 roms

Hello, I recently have bought gt540. Everything was fine, but then I thought about upgrading android. I upgraded it and the problems started. With Andriod 2.1 my started to have various programs' crashes, so I installed france orange rom v20c for fastboot, flashed recovery and etc. Now the thing is my phone has crashes on custom roms too. even on Utopia and full froyo rom by MikeGapinski. Sometimes my phone don't even boot up at all, then ai took of the battery and turn it on once again. Sometimes when it boots up there is no crashes but there s some apps , too. For example sometimes market dissapperas. What can cause this problem? I know it can be because of kernel. I want to hear possible ways to solve this problem. Maybe it would help if I install stock 1.6 rom via KDZ updater and then install custom rom? And one more thing it won't boot up with v20c (or v20b) it stucks at android screen.
Thank you all in advance.
You cant go back to 1.6 now.....don't try to you will brick your cell.
Sent from my GT540 using xda premium
I turned phone i booted up, everything looks works, expect, the market sometimes crashes ( because it loads up very slowly) and other thing programs won't install i tried Angry birds, and some other games ( which don't require for multi-touch) an i tried install some apps (quick settings, google maps) and they won't install,too.

did you do a factory reset ?
After factory I got to the starting point, it hardly boot ups, if boot ups there are crashes. Could this be caused by that my phone as I suspect was not from baltic region and i installed update for Lithuania's location?
hmm that does no matter i live in Asia and i used the European version
I knew that it doesn't matter (on lg p500) but I thought:'Maybe there is a difference on gt540' So what could it be? Could this be because of bad fastboot.exe? I really don't know if the fastboot.exe witch i have is good ( it does the job, but maybe there are bugs in it)
I tried install Synergy rom (for old recovery) it started fine but it says it can't find xbin/cksum, this is the only rom which installs from recovery normally ( others jus t takes 5s... this one is copying files normally) So can anyone provide me rom for old recovery ? or maybe new fastboot.exe would be fine, too.
P.S.now i'm using CWM recovery v2.5.1.8

You can install any rom with this recovery....

But not all of roms I've tried installed correctly, some of them installs in 5-10s, others won't install, because there is some kind of error and how i end up with recovery saying : aborted.
you can try to flash 2.1 europian+fastboot and then to reflash mur4iks 2.3 but dont blame me if u brick phone :O this is just sugestion..

It didn't work. I installed v20c france (orange) it seems to work, but sometimes it could be not stable (for example crash or rebooting). Maybe this related to cpu? Maybe it is overheating or smoething?
I think its not a problem with the cpu. The cpu runs with stock configs.
Try to flash the 2.1 + fastboot and then flash a 2.3 rom.

I mananged to install swift droid 2.3 from 2.1 (stock france orange rom) And there are some problems. I go to the market pick up game, it starts downloading it, after it finishes downloading, I get error :'downlaoding was unsuccessful, please try again'. I somehow installed Ninja chicken, and after all tuts in the game, you should be transferred and play, but that doesn't happen, I get that game turned off by itself. So what the problem? Is it really not cpu? Maybe something with cache?
hmmm ok er wipe data cache and try again?
I'm getting error abou downlaoding progrms... dunno why. Does my phone really don't support angry birds ?
EDIT: I am able to paly ninja chicken. Mostly this error is on the apps whick are larger than 8MB or something.
try to get an vending.apk from another rom and install it or downgrade yours.
i think its an market problem.

I tried installing vending.apk from SD after installatio progress it's written application not installed. Maybe try to flash whole gapps? I have gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip I have this because It was needed on my optimus one( i don;t remember the rom) But i suppode this package would fit. Right?
can you test some other roms? like SDSL 1.1 or lewa os?
last option ist to reflash from the begining whit kdz etc...
