For me my arc is the best phone i had, most stunning design n sexy, it is quite fast..

My only wishes r if only this phone a dual core, larger internal memory, more ram, thus it wil b a perfect phone..regarding the exterior, i wish it hav more solid material so it looks expensive like its price..
*
at that time sony release new arc or other xperia, other manufacturer will produce even better spec. lets hope sony will lead the way brows.gif


Added on January 5, 2012, 6:46 pmmay i ask 1 question?

did anyone manage to have arc running 1 day or more on battery with standard usage?

just now my arc s just went blank screen with lights on.
need to remove battery.
and sometimes i just restarts itself.

i think i tweak with it too much?

i installed auto task killer and left the Empty App to 100MB. is it too much?

and my phone always left around 105-110. So when it reaches 99, i think thats when it starts killing anything..
*
Now ur phone ok or can't boot?

I must say Arc battery is sooo bad...standard usage can last for 1 3/4 day only. If you switch ON just WIFI for whole day, the battery gone very fast...I need to charge every nite when reach home from work. If forgot to charge, tomorrow morning, si liao loh...
*
Arc battery is good... Not so bad... The one that drain ur battery is the firmware... I hope SE can release ICS that hav better battery management... my gf's sgs2 hav short battery life even it got 1650mah battery

phone is ok now. can restart after remove batter.
just now i receive a call within 10 seconds it freakin reboot again. haha.
till now i think it reboot 4 times iianm within few months.
donno whether its because of the juice defender,autokiller,setcpu..or whatever problem it is.
any ideas?

autokiller set on aggresive hidden app 82 content provider 89 emptyapp 98
set cpu 1401 max 806 min

are those stressin my phone?
thanks.
*
maybe the aggressive setting make ur arc going crazy..
also maybe ur ram usage is too high..
i heard that when ram usage exceed certain limit, phone will automatic reboot

thanks for replying.
maybe im asking too much from my arc ass. haha

it's ok dude...
btw, the one that u set in autokiller is called min free..
setting min free to aggresive mod can cause android system to imbalance..

Wow. i was right.
so NO.1 is the No.1 killer. hehe.

i set only 8xx max n 5xx min... hehe
8xx ok lah... don't set 1xx... cpu speed is tooooo low for the system to run..


Added on January 7, 2012, 4:38 amI've flash my baby arc s with arconium 5.6.
it is stock based custom rom by Malaysian at XDA forum.
superfast and multitasking.
lot of tweak applied in that rom.
with antutu benchmarker, i got 3547 score. quite nice actually.
its interface is same like stock rom with default arc launcher but i've replaced it with 360 launcher.
lets try~ vrooommmm vroooommm rclxm9.gif

argh.. my arc s so lag.
whenever i pressed home button, the 5 widgets pops up 2 by 2.
i even move some widget to other screen so that i wont see it pop up slowly. haha.
or whenever i unlock, i need to wait ...1...2...3...4..5... seconds only start swiping if not i will get pissed if it hangs a little. haha  .

the flashing arconium looks promising. but i guess i just wait for ICS to come, if ICS still sucks on arc s..then time to flash.

but by right my arc should be fast what..
im using

rooted.
GO launcher. 4 screens. 9 widgets in total.
no folders on desktop.
set cpu min 806
autokiller 60 70 80
phone memory available 166mb
Free RAM approx 9xMB

whats wrong?
*
free RAM 9xmb???
mine is around 200mb free RAM..
try flash Arconium + Doomkernel..
u won't notice any lag after that

calling n sms only can get 5 day battery??
haha..
i don't think so...
calling n sms draining battery a lot...
even when phone is idle (screen off) still can get 5 day...
unless u hav 2000mah extended battery

hi..latest official firmware is 4.0.2.A.0.62 right?
*
yup...
actually .62 is release after a few day .58 released..
so, i guess, the difference between two FW is less..
