Hey guys ... Is Xperia Arc S having some connection problems ? It seems that the WiFi has some problem , I keep getting disconnected from WiFi . Googled on the net , it says hardware problem.
How do I rectify this problem ?

Is it the kernel version ?
If it is , then mine is SEMCUser@SEMCHost#1
LOL ....

Your kernel is stock kernel....the easy way to check your rom is rooted or not download root checker apps from market and run in..

Just flashed the stock ICS.. no more bricked smile.gif
But anyhow, what is the best custom ROM in terms of stability and battery life?

TQ

ultimate 2.0 is one of the best rom for arc s ..one of my favourite...pureness got beautiful look. paired with correct kernel set up you will get excellent battery life ...for aosp rom fxp and cm10 got gud performance but battery not very gud..

for stock rom..rooted with junk apps removed and paired with supercharger V6 you also able tol get gud performance set up also...

just try any combination out there to suit your likes.. thumbup.gif

Would like to ask , does flashing rom has any effects on WiFi signal receiving ?
I posted about WiFi problems back on few pages , it really pisses me off as the signal sometimes may receive(one bar, the dot) or two and then its gone .
Tried alot of ways and could not find any solutions to it . Even checked on xda forums , some people said that its the WiFi module that Sony used us cheap , no quality . Zzzzz
I'd even compared iPhone5 with my Arc S when receiving WiFi signal , Arc S could receive only one or two bars . For iPhone it could receive easily without disconnecting . Next , I even did a comparison between Samsung Galaxy Ace , WiFi signal still much better than Arc S as it does not disconnect easily .
Any solutions ? Else I'm gonna change this phone to Samsung .

What ROM and baseband are you using now...never happen to me.......
And sometime it maybe your router frequency setting...

hi.. wanna ask.. how come i cant go into the recovery mode after i press the volume down button??

the timing need to be correct when pressing the volume down button..while after the boot logo appeared...

if still cannot...either your cwm not available/problem or your volume down button is problem...
