Actually I was wondering why d heck I waited for an ics update for arc?? I hv rooted my arc immediately when I bought this phone 9 months ago. N during dat tym tonroot need to unlock bootloader n my phone is already unlock.

Guess I think it is about tym for me to play with custom rom. B4 I proceed, need a couple of advices from fellow otai in flashin custom roms.

1. Obviusly I hv to back up everytg right? Gues titanium backup wil do it.
2. My phone originally is a lt15a, instead of normally lt15i. But I already flash to lt15i last tym when I update to 2.3.3 iinm. So would it make any different to d process when updating n flashin??
3. So far how was it the ics feels like from u guys opinion? So muc better or better just stick wt gingerbread? I love ics from my tablet s, so much bettrr thn honeycomb, so I expect similar experience if I were to update my phone.

But all is same file...

So Kumbang desa posted the file for me, so I download n flash.

Check this few last pages. Got the file link.

GingerBread is the best.

custom ICS ROM is much better than stock ICS ROM coz dev had tweak it to make it smooth and faster..
you already had unlocked bootloader so customize your phone with many wonderfull custom ROMs..not just ICS custom ROMS..this is a priviledge for unlocked bootloader user only..

basically the steps is nearly same to install all custom ROM..here some steps :

1. download custom ROM your want. (ICS, GB, MiUi, CM, etc..)
2. save that custom ROM file (zip file) into sd cards.
3. download kernel that suitable with that ROM and put inside loader folder in flashtool..dev of that ROM will tell what the best kernel for their ROM (eg. ICS = stock kernel or doomkernel ICS v5 or arcknight kernel)
4. flash that kernel using flashtool..via fastboot (not flashmode)
5. reboot and press volume down when you see blue LED appear (to going inside CWM)
6. wipe data/ factory reset > yes
7. advanced > wipe dalvik cache > yes
8. install zip from sd cards > choose zip file from sdcard > (choose zip file that you had download in step 1) > ok
9. reboot system now.
10. done. smile.gif

p/s : if there any module for some kernel that must be flash, reboot and going CWM again..after that flash that zip file.

i don really understand the bold part.. coz instruction from xda - mooded rom is like this

QUOTE
Transfer the zip file you downloaded above to your internal sdcard (not the external micro SD).
    Turn off the phone, then boot into recovery mode. For this, press and hold Menu Button Until CWM screen shows up: Volume Button.

    Phone will boot into CWM recovery. Use volume keys to scroll up and down between options and power/home key to select an option.
    Perform a wipe:
    Select “wipe data/factory reset”. Then select “Yes” on next screen to confirm. (This will not touch your SD cards so don’t worry).
    Go to “advanced” and then select “wipe dalvik cache”, then select “Yes” on next screen. Now, go back to main screen of recovery.

    Select “mounts and storage”, then select “format system”. Select “Yes” on next screen to confirm. Go back to main recovery menu after system format is complete.
    Then, select “install zip from sdcard”, then select “choose zip from sdcard”. Then, browse to the file you transferred to the sdcard in step 2 and select it.
    Confirm installation on the next screen by selecting the option ”Yes — Install MooDeD ICS.zip“. The ROM will now start installing.
    After installation is complete, select “go back” then select “reboot system now” to reboot the phone.

Both arc and arc s can install same rom.
If you had already flash official ics then should be no problem to just flashing mooded ics. Custom kernel is just for overclocking.

1. Download:
-fastboot package: http://www.multiupload.com/BMJ24IL6XY
-32/64bit drivers: http://www.multiupload.com/0XZV1LXRVA
2. Go to: http://unlockbootloader.sonyericsson.com/instructions
3. At the bottom click 'Continue' and enter your IMEI (type *#06# to find out), name and email address
4. You should now receive your unique unlock key
5. Extract fastboot.rar and open fastboot folder
6. Hold SHIFT and right click on the background of the folder
7. Select 'Open command window here'
8. Connect your phone in fastboot mode (turn phone off, hold menu button and plug in USB Cable)
9. In the cmd windows type in fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce getvar version
10. If a value is returned, it means the phone is correctly connected
11. Type in fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce oem unlock 0xKEY and replace KEY with the key provided in step 4.
12. You're device should now be bootloader unlocked


this instruction is confusing sweat.gif

Forgot that cwm inside the custom kernel. Hehe. Sorry. Flashing the custom kernel will solve the problem.
1. Put kernel file inside loaders folder in flashtool.
2. Off phone.
3. Hold menu button and plug into pc. Blue led appear.
4. Run flashtool and Choose fastboot
5. Choose option and select the kernel in loaders folder.
6. Wait flashing till it finished.
7. Reboot and done.

oic i c, u mean loaders folder inside c:\flashtool\loaders? at the moment there are 2 files in it - S1_Loader_Root_773f.sin n S1_Root_de72.sin.. do i hv to delete it or just let it be?
