after rooting install CWM (using xparts) , after all these steps you will be able to install custom roms like Zelly cream a , ice bean etc

        Hi

        I am having a couple of issues with the arc s. Firstly the camera doesn't work anymore, all I get now is 'unfortunately camera has stopped'. Why?
        Also every time I use google or the browser, after a short period of time it will send me back to google search page or will compleaty close the app and go back to my desktop. Why? It's very annoying.
        The phone was brilliant when I first got it back it has taken a drastic slide.

        Can someone help or give advice on how to rectify the problems?

        Thanks

                  AnonD-124866, 23 Mar 2013Salman what is use of kernel like doomlord,vengeance and r... moreI can say one thing about kernel
                  Kernel is King of OS (Operating System)
                  kernel sits between hardware and software , Kernel contains all information about ur phone hardware and Software (OS)...Without kernel OS is Nothing
                  Android is based on linux
                  Android Kernels can increase stability , add some features or increase battery timing of handset
                  Many custom roms like cyanogenmod , Jelly bean , MIUI required custom kernels , u cannot install these rom with locked bootloader.

                  Rooting gives u root access / superuser privilege to ur device (Like in windows Administrator Account gives u all rights to change anything)

                  bootloader contains the booting information of OS
                  bootloader install in boot partition
                  u cannot access this partition unless ur bootloader unlocked

                  To install custom kernel like u mentioned in ur post , required unlocked bootloader

                  regards
                  Salman

                    let me make it simple

                    suppose ur mobile is rooted , and u are using gingerbread 2.34 , if you upgrade ur phone to ICS 4.04 via sony pc companion , it will remove root access !
                    and u have to root ur mobile again using my 2nd guide "rooting on ICS"

                                  AnonD-124866, 22 Mar 2013Hey Salman THANKS!!! MY PHONE IS ROOTED NOW!!!! YEAH!!... moreif you are using gingerbread 2.34 , then u cannot directly install Xperia ice bean / zelly cream roms because both roms are based on ICS 4.04 .587
                                  FIRST of all
                                  u have to upgrade ur phone to official sony ics using sony pc companion
                                  if you don`t want to upgrade to ICS from PC Companion then there is a alternate method
                                  download this file
                                  http://www.mediafire.com/?rhr59r4o6oarnfx

                                  after up gradating , root ur mobile by following my previous rooting guide for ICS

                                  xparts is used to install recovery mode for Andriod devices , recovery mode is also called CWM (Clockwork Mode) ,after install xparts , open this app , tab to next screen , and install CWM , it will take sometime to install , before installing , make sure , ur phone wifi must be on and connected to internet
                                  Zelly cream rom downloadlink
                                  http://d-h.st/gQP

                                  this rom file is in .zip formate , don`t extract it
                                  and to install this rom , put this rom into ur sd card
                                  restart ur phone , before sony logo appears , start press volume down key , it will enter into CWM (Recovery mode)

                                  remember one thing , the options in recovery mode cannot be select using touch ,use volume up/down for up/down and to select anything , press center home key button

                                  very carefully follow this guide to install zelly cream

                                  2. Wipe data/factory reset.
                                  3. Wipe cache partition.
                                  4. Wipe dalvic cache under advanced menu.

                                  9. Install zip from sd card.
                                  10. Follow the steps in aroma installer to install the rom.
                                  11. Uncheck "Reboot device" after installation completed and click on next to go back to CWM.
                                  12. Now reboot your phone..

                                  after rebooting , it will take sometime for first boot, be patient

                                  i installed this rom , and i found one bug or u can say i experience one problem
                                  when i try to share any file using gallery / astro or any other file manager , bluetooth option was missing ...i reported this issue to the creator
                                  this rom on xda , but he said it`s not a bug ,only few xperia holders face this issue after installing this rom ,
                                  u can try and check !
