You can try the following steps:

http://androidflip.com/re-lock-boot-loader...tep-step-guide/
So, anyone updated already to the latest firmware 4.0.A.2.368? Still can't root though, and no pre-rooted firmware image as well.

Most of the changes is cosmetic (i.e themes, widgets, etc)

oledi updated tongue.gif get it rooted not by using DoomLord from xda, but using Bin4ry script, preserving my stock kernel hehe..

QUOTE(lotiman2003 @ Aug 3 2011, 11:14 AM)
This one is 2.3.4?
*
nope, its still 2.3.3 but i like it.. can change themes, got zoom in function for the camera.. havent tried the xloud function yet..

it feels so snappy, mayb it fresh at the moment, no improvement in camera

the flooding is damn nice and no lag...

hoefully they listen to us and get the camera sorted out on the next release,
*
the new launcher is snappy compared to previous.. im using back timescape widget as it doesnt laggy like b4 tongue.gif

btw i like themes, now can change to black color, no nid to apply custom theme..

if i update it will i lose anything? eg: phone reset. lost sms etc etc?

u can choose not to wipe data. but for me, it is a best practice to start fresh on new firmware for compatibility issue..

but no root for locked bootloader for now tho..

juz notice playing mkv files much smoother on moboplayer compared to previous firmware..

I just flashed my arc with the new firmware.
btw, what does it mean by "Landscape mode for your home screen"?
*
Ur home screen can b viewed in landscape mode, which is horizontal.. But I can't seem to get it on my arc..is the landscape mode really exist on our home launcher? Didn't really bother though..

yes, to acquire root unlocked bootloader is needed for now as there is no root available for locked bootloader yet..

Downloading the new firmware to be flashed to my Arc.. *fingercrossed* flex.gif
Oh I've just learned that, landscape homescreen can only be viewed when U plugged Ur Arc to a HDTV via HDMI.. hmm.gif
Correct me if I'm wrong.. unsure.gif
*
yup, landscape only when via hdmi..

ive tried global generic n sweden rom, sweden tends to giv me more internal storage compared to generic global..

some few bugs that i encountered:

timescape widgets stated 'widgets already added' eventho i didnt add it yet.
some of the apps will fc suddenly, but no big deal.

hey guys my arc has video problems..it freezes sometimes and the lip sync is way off...any ideas how to solve this problem?
*
if urs is on 2.3.2, update to 2.3.3 as it solves the sync prob..

if u oledi update ur phone, n the playback still freeze sometimes, possibly its bcoz of the stock microsd which is class 2.. upgrade to higher class card..

yoyo all ARC sifu, what is the quadrant score for this phone? Can anyone kindly post Stock rom score and custom rom score? Im interested in buying one.
*
The score is around 1600+ for me..don't compare with dual core as dual core will be much higher..

If you want custom rom for this phone, do keep in mind the camera driver still not accessible to developer, so camera won't work for now..
