Hello,
I have a x10i..
I wanted to try out different ROM hence used the tutorial available here (in the forum) to ROOT the device and install different ROM versions along with baseband and as such things..
Finally, I wanted to revert back to my default Sony given ROM..
Whats the official (Sony) process to restore or rather install the default SE ROM (that 2.1 android) ??
I tried that Sony PC Suite phone repair, but after restoration, with the default ROM, my device is not running smooth.. I dont have any apps installed apart from the default things which came after the phone repair, but still the phone is running dam slow and sluggish..
How can I get the performance issue solved ?? Did I missed anything in restoration process ?? (using the sony pc suite repair phone option) ??
I am really unhappy with this sluggishness so i am thinking that I must have done something wrong in the restoration process...
Any help would be appreciable..
Thanks
dude, the stock SE 2.1 is a slow and unsmooth rom.... it is lack in prformance.... theres a lot of 2.1 custom rom that performs better than the stock SE rom.. if u want a fast n smooth rom without any functionality lost... u should consider to usem them.... it is basically sooo laggy with the SE stock rom..... just so tht u know.....

If you have tons of apps downloaded and a whole bunch running all the time, your bound to see a hit in performance.
There's a few certain apps that i found to be just a hog in my performance
ie: timescape, face recognition, learning client to name a few.
I have taken my stock 2.1, rooted it and installed JIT...wiped a WHOLE bunch of useless apps, and my stock 2.1 is NOT by any means sluggish or laggy.
I consider it my own custom rom
Anyways, if you have root access, search for the threads for apps to delete to speed up your phone.
ps. after you reinstall the stock 2.1 from seus or pc companion, your device will be slower as it needs to build it all up again. So, in other words whenever you flash a new ROM or reflash stock 2.1 you have to give your phone time to get up and running full speed.

Ok.. I would wait.. may be this is what i needed to know.
I am using the stock rom and it runs smoothly enough I got jit enabler running, link2sd and sysctl config o get around 34k with linpack. Before rooting i had about 6-8 so major improvement. Used other roms aswell but if cam , wifi tethering isnt working proppetly on Custom roms then ill stick to my 2.1 tweaked rom

Hi guys,
I really need your experience help now. I can't decide which ROM to use for my Ace. I've been using 2.2.1 Froyo, and I decided to upgrade to 2.3.4 KPH. Then I realized that there is lockscreen lag and was really slow. One friend suggested me to use GingerReal 1.1.0 to solve the problem with lockscreen lag and speed, and I upgrade with this custom ROM, but it had a billion of custom stuffs in it, that I don't really understand and use (Tweaks, ext4, QQ launcher, etc.). So I reverted back to my stock Froyo, and started to read here. 3 days I've been reading, and finally decided to put the latest 2.3.3 KPO ROM (LUXKP1). Everything went smooth, but now I can see that my Ace is really slow, lockscreen lag takes ages to show. Otherwise it's really clean ROM, nothing unnecessary pre-installed and contains only the most important apps in it.
Now, I really want to fix that speed and lockscreen lag problem, and I'm thinking to upgrade to KPN. What's your advise to me? Is KPN fast and no lockscreen lag and also - SOD with stock ROM (i'm not planing to use custom ROM for now)?
Also which KPN to choose - 0OXXKP7 or XEUKP1? And at last but not at least what apps pre-installed contains this ROM? Some unnecessary stuffs like those mentioned above? And is it pre-routed?
Thanks in advance, and sorry for my bad English...
We cannot make this decision for you, you'll have to do it yourself. The only way to find out is to try different firmwares, until you find the one that you think is the best.
What I CAN tell you is the following: I've had both KPN and KPO on my device, and I did not notice any difference between them. They were both stable and pretty fast. They have the screen unlock-lag, but think this is not a really big problem, since it only takes ~0.5/1 second.
None of the apps you noted in your post will be included on those firmwares, since these are original samsungfirmwares and not modded ones. Therefore it is not pre-rooted either.
Just going to put it out there. My rom my ui is kpn based it does use tencent launcher witch is simular to miui/iphone. Theres a test out now thats fully working and the complete rom will be out soon. Its really simple and easy to use, but very different to the stock rom. Your call. . .

Thanks for the answers. I'll give a try at KPN.
@jusada, I'll test your ROM soon, and will see if it's compatible with my Ace style
Thanks again you both
Try other custom ROMs when you have free time. You might find one of them that fits you.

Damned... I bricked my phone, because of KPN. I downloaded the S5830OXXKP7 and loaded it to Odin. It's one package file, so I clicked START, and... the download failed. I suppose that my phone must have some 2.3.3 Android before flashing KPN S5830OXXKP7... But it was 2.2.1 Froyo, and it bricks.
Now I'm downloading KPO 'cause I know it's full package, and will try to unbrick it...
Damned! How did you install KPN???

1.excellent battery backup(high priority)
2.darktremors apps2sd with no hassles

Yes, of course. If I didn't use .ops, my "One Package" field is not active even when "One Package" radio button is marked...
I don't know how I bricked my phone - I loaded all files in Odin (the ROM .tar and the .ops file), and clicked on start button - the usual stuff when u flash new rom, step by step were accomplished. And then... BANG, stays on step number 3 at Odin, for about 2 hours... The counter shows that estimated time imo, is about 3-4 more hours, judging by that the green bar wasn't reach even the half way to end... And after that the connection drops, my phone says "Download failed" and... that was all...
Thanks God, I could go to download mode again, and I flashed back 2.2.1 and then KPO Full Package ROM, and my phone is still alive
But... it's slow... and still got the lockscreen lag, and I'm thinking to flash some custom ROM, because of speed...

So it is posible ? I dont to brick my phone.
On psp when you flash custom firmware on official 6.XX later you can brick you psp. (its only example)
But therefore I ask.
So I can flash every x10(i) with any rom. And it's not dependent on actual rom. Yes or no ?
Sorry for my english :/

The X10's flash mode is hard coded in.. so if you set up the flashtool, you can always revert back to a stock original or branded rom. Even if you crash in the middle of rom install, you still have the ability to go back using the flash tool or SEUS repair.
Most roms are a continuing project and in different phases of it.. some are from scratch and some are ports from other phones, all roms have different abilities and perks to running them. CM7 roms give extended system tweaks, and MIUI roms are almost a totally different framework altogether, but they are very smooth.
Kernels are the linux system behind it all, some roms will wipe the original kernel and replace it.. or if you go through the amazing process of unlocking your bootloader, you can have the actual kernel itself replaced.. the perks of this are mostly for overclocking & undervolting to get better performance and/or battery life.
I find no matter which dirrection I go with a rom or kernel, it always seems to have its significant advantages.. If you run into a jam feel free to PM me and I will try and guide you in what ever your venture is, I think I have installed every rom at 1 time or another lol.. best of luck!
even if u brick it can be easily resolved to the normal state...only sometimes it becomes a big pain in a** !! else its cool to go around flashing !!!

You can depending on what the u u want to flash.
some roms require the bootloader to be unlocked, and some don't so. Be cautious if not the phone will get. Stuck in a boot loop, in se logo.

Stock gingerbread rom is very laggy and slow. I think there is such a thing like fpsuncap or sth.like that, that makes the rom faster. I never used that, bwcause every custom ROM has that. Search for it in the dev forum.

Hi everyone!
I'm tired using custom roms for their instability and fc's everywhere for over a year I didnt found Rom that works perfect all the time with many apps installed so I just want to my phone work, dont want to flash new system every month again.
I was running stock with deleted apps, Set Cpu (tnx to gregbradley (edit: that was neoxx3m very good advidce, sorry my bad) and z-kernel for about 4 months and I was happy, that was one and only Rom that i've used so long. Yes it wasnt so fast but it was very stable and everything works so nice not even one fc. (kindda wierd couse ive installed z-kerner on my Unlocked BL x10 and now I can't and dont wanna to play and relock)
So i wanna repair my phone and get back to stock, root it, delete all uneeded apps and flash the most stable kernel so will it be failsafe from doom right?
And the question is will my plan work? I know that phone will not be so fast but will everything work and this is all I need or maybe someone has better idea?
Also have some questions about the newest fw for this Doom UB kernel. Where do i get this newest se fw?
Any help will be very appriciated.

It will work because when u repair ur phone via PCC u get latest firmware (2.3.3/3.x.x.x.x.x), but my advice is to try relock BL and use zKernel, i did that yesterday and i'm happy again!

I told you that dont wanna play with bootloader no more, maybe for some time i would like to try some kernel or rom (if im not happy for using stock and doom) and will have to unlock again so im patience (tring to) and will not to this for a while.
Anyway strange is that i flash zKernel even if i had unlocked Bootloader and it work fine but when i tried to do this again ( didnt know that this kernel is fo Locked only) it didnt work
Hey mates.
The thing is: In my phone all roms running under kernel naa-14 suffer from random shut downs or from loss of signal once in a while, it doesn't happen many times but when it happens it's not good "example: you don't wanna sleep with your alarm not waking you because your phone is turned off, right?" xD.
So i was wondering: do you guys know another kernel for the most recent gb roms instead of kernel naa-14?, or if there is a rom that doesn't suffer from this shut downs/lost signal on this naa-14 kernel?.
Ps: Don't say something like: reinstall rom, go back to 2.1 and then install rom again, etc... i already did all of that.
Thanks

hey mate, I have some suggestion for you, firstly you can flash your mini with SEUS(Sony Ericsson Update Service) not with flashtool, so after you flashed with SEUS you will need to start over again for unlock BL and flashing custom ROMS or Kernels, :victory:

Yes it is more likely a kernel problem, and that's why i wanted to know if there is another kernel without this problems. I flashed this naa-kernel 14 on my computer and on my portable computer in different times, but the result is always the same because sooner or later the phone will shut down or loose signal out of nowhere. I thought about flashing a rom with stock kernel but the roms available for stock kernel all have some bugs :S.
Ps: do you think there is much difference between this phone and Sony Live With Walkman in terms of audio quality/loudness and camera?, i am tented to buy that phone and all my problems would be solved for good as i need a stable phone when i get a job xD.

it was the first rom ever that i tried, i don't remember now if it was good or not, but is this rom really more stable to use than the most recent gb roms that run on naa-14 kernel?. And does it have all the fixes "battery, camera quality, etc" that were made till now?.
