installing "stock" android

[legodude]

Hi guys

 

I have a Sony Xperia Arc LT15i (I hate the phone but I don't want to spend money on a new phone) and I want to reset it to a stock OS (basically remove all the crap and space taking apps that O2 fill the phone with) but how do I go about doing this? I've done it before with my last phone but I can't remember! oops!

Might as well install Cyanogenmod on it. Removes all the factory bloatware but also gives you the latest version of Android (kitkat) and AOSP

I would also definitely recommend getting Cyanogenmod.

Using CM 11 on my Galaxy SIII and everything works just fine and Android runs a lot faster and smother than before.
