It was a good rom, but lately i'm having A LOT of FC, log calls, Facebook, and so on. It becomes so exhasuting...
Then it has a great battery behaviour!! :D

I think this is the 'xperia events app' that was used to replace timescape.. Its a pain in the ass. Although the widget has been removed for stability issues the background processes still exist, I think that the dev is working on getting a working timescape in the future so left these in for now.

maybe use some common sense, or better yet read the 1st page for the exact answer to your question? Why would nAa bother making his own custom kernel for his custom rom, if the stock kernel was good enough already?

He even stated on his nAa kernel topic that it's best used with his CM7 MINI roms, they're made to go hand in hand together.

Thanks for your reply.
Tomorrow I install the nAa kernel and flash to ArcMini nxT6 for nAa Kernel.

I think I figured it out. Using Root Explorer, delete the events app, events log (basically all the ones which have got and event attached to its name).

I'm currently on nAa's CM7-2.2.1 RC4, and even though the ArcMini NxT6 is based on this, I still want to know if there is a major difference in terms of performance and battery life?

I know that CM7-2.2.1 has slightly better battery life compare to 2.2.0. However, it's still not as good as CM7-2.1.9, as I could use my phone for up to 3~4 days whereas on 2.2.1 I could only use up to maybe 2 days.

Some of you have commented that the ArcMini NxT6 has a good battery life, would that be equivalent to the base rom (nAa's CM7-2.2.1) or is it slightly better?

@chaoscreater, After using this ROM for 2-3 days, I have started feeling that nAa's CM7-2.2.1 RC4 has a better Battery life than Arc Mini.

Also it is a bit buggy lately. I am moving back to nAa's CM7-2.2.1 RC4

thanks for your reply mate.

Hmm that's not good, I know nAa has fixed quite a few bugs since v2.1.9 but many have reported the battery life a lot worse........I stayed off v2.2.0 and was hoping v2.2.1 would have fixed this problem. Guess I might have to go back to v2.1.9 again.......

It's weird, I install the same apps and yet v2.2.0 & v2.2.1 drain my battery like crazy. The usage mostly comes from the Display and Phone, but I don't turn on my screen that much and barely make any calls or txts.......it's gotta do with the cellular connection or something, like it's always trying to find a good signal (which I do have)....

Testing Mini Nxt 6 arc the perfect time for great battery life, is maintenance like official ROM according see :O
I duration of the battery without use is 1 hour or more at 1%
Question for the creator of the ROM

¿Do you have thought of a future to the arc mini android version 4?

Can I use this ROM with nAa-ics-03 kernel?

If not, what version of the kernel is better to move - nAa-12 or stock?

    [ROM] ArcMini NxT7 [Soon & Last]

    Hello friends,

    There is some good and bad news for you.

    The good news is that ArcMini NxT7 is cominig soon and the bad is that it will be the last ROM in the NxT series. I am dropping support for the Gingerbread ROM as Jelly Bean [by nAa] is also available for this device.

    So, in the time of JB, Gingerbread feels quite outdated and for me it is very difficult to manage both the versions.

    Finally, a huge thanks to all of you because without your support it was not possible to develop ArcMini & support it for over 1 year.

    This was my first ROM that I had made for our little device & it is very difficult to forget it but, CHANGE YOURSELF WITH TIME is also a true statement.


    Thanks Again,
    Pranav Pandey
