i have an x10 mini pro. was wondering which will be a better option for me to flash a custom rom. cm6 or cm7. which better? pro's and con's...
thank you!
CM7 has got a few big bugs like: high quality camera doesn't work. It is on Android 2.3
CM6 is very good, there aren't any bigger bug, a few little ones which I even don't found, but someone have written about them. On CM6 everything works perfectly and i observed that battery lives longer.
I had both ROMs and I stick to CM6 until CM7 will be on the same stage of completion like CM6
It's more your preference I guess. The only drawback (for me) to cm7 ROM is the camera. Aside from that, everything else is pretty much equal. I'd stick with cm7 but I really need the camera.

Im also same as u...cm7 is great...the camera i use Angle Camera...resolution can go till 2048x1536 and without any lag + hang...
I would at the moment CM6 is better at the moment
The battery lasts longer and everything works fine!
If you use CM6 try using the custom rom called froyocomb v1.32
It is pretty awesome and fast and it has the screen off and on animation that CM7 has

Try clearing the dalvik cache. That fixes a lot of problems. If that doesn't work, try flashing with SEUS then flashing the ROM.

I'd say it depends on your needs, if you use the camera a lot then stick with CM6, if you want to go for the best possible performance, then use CM7, Gingerbread, at least on my X10 Mini, is much faster than Froyo.

Hey Fellows,
I am a newbie here in XDA and Xperia X10. So I kindly ask for you guys, more experienced than me, which rom available here (there is tons at Development section) is better.. I mean reliable, stable, fast, smooth.. bla..bla bla.
As I said in the very beginning I am just a newbie here and I would really appreciate any constructive and useful suggestion.
Thanks,
B.H.

I'm now using Beta 4, waiting for trip's .54 version
CM 6.1.1-v3.2
I would suggest Free X10 Beta4,the downside is that the camcorder is working 100% yet.You can download Video Illusion as an alternative,Its a nice rom thats pretty smooth.
You do need to be the the this baseband to use it though.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=939812
That's a good question.. I am looking for the same.. maybe the one by Z.. that's a great rom. Fast and smooth so far. However the camera camcorder doesn't works properly for now.. may be some mod rom.. there is a couple here as I could see.
The new MIUI rom from Trip is awesome, you should try that!
I've tried several; the only one-so far with no issues (Camcorder, Market Battery etc. all smooth, stable and fast) is BitSnacker_2.1x10ROMv1.0

+1 if you want a fully functioning Camcorder
new firmware x10a 2.1.1.A.0.6
it here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=960598
try it
my suggestion (may souund boring) but keep the stock (SE) 2.1 update 1 with the latest updates
Pavi90 has a guide "how to speed up a stock x10" (something like that) i did it, everything works (i mean EVERYTHING) and its silky smooth, snappy, reliable and everything
it wont get 1000+ on quadrant, but it runs as good as i think i needs to, i would compare it to an iphones smoothness with these mods
2.2 beta 4.... Miui is ugly as sin imo. If you want your phone to look like an iphone why not get one? The rows of icons are so freakin bland...it's everything I dislike about iphone
hey mate, I'm also new here - all started when I decided to root my x10 and now i can't understand how I was able to use that phone before.
ROM, which I can actually recommend is kX10 R2B001 (I'm using it right now) - it's clean and works pretty smooth! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=913610
my advise u this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=949457
put be sure u have same Framwork version ok
I Love freeX10 beta4 if HD video rec is worked out then this would be the ultimate rom..
PS there is a ps1 emulator called FPse that only works on 2.2+Roms. But its near perfect and is the main reason i upgrade + flashplayer too
I've never had problems with the rom

I would recommend cm 6.1.3 v4 by wolf break. Extremely stable

Hi there,

I had handle it to be faster and still reliable.. all stuffs inside works perfect and it has a pretty cool Gingerbread Theme too of Sempiternal..

I'm considering installing FreeX10 beta4 on my X10. The other ones look good too.
Guyz... V hav got many roms... But lets just keep it simple and sort out the best everyday used roms...
I still am on 2.1 and want to move on furthur...but i just cant decide..every rome has drawbacks... So in the quest for the best...or near to one...suggest:d
either freex10 beta 4, or wolfbreak's cm mod.....
both fantastic roms!
Cld u tell me the drawback in both... So that i can decide??? Coz i dont want basic functions like camera,wifi,bt missin...den ders no point...
The ONLY drawback to either is that you need a 3rd party app (videocam illusion) to use the camcorder...
Otherwise they are 100% stable and perfect.
And the battery life ??? Is it same with these roms???
I find them both pretty equal. MY suggestion is flash bandwidth .55, seems to be better than .54...
I get a day no problem, and I use my phone pretty heavily. Two days with light to moderate usage.
Wolfbreaks CM V4.3 is the best IMO.
I friggen love it
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
If you like to use a 2.3 ROM use the TMRgingerARCmOd
ROM from rdannar. Its pretty stable for a gingerbread ROM and I think, don't quote me on this, but I think it has more stuff working than the other 2.3 gingerbread ROMS. Try it. But no camera at all works on the ROM. Who needs a camera though? You got the most updated software at least working for the x10.

There's alternative camera Apps that work. I love to how the transitions are seamless scrolling between screens and Apps. Using the latest flash Player is also a huge advantage to. My wifi auto connects with now problem and the bluetooth works fine.
2.1 is old and outdated and slow. I'm currently using Cm 6.1. 3 and it's exceptional. I was using free x10, which was great but I still prefer wolfs rom.
Time for you to get with the times, so you can get a real phone.
Besides you can always flash between roms, it only takes 5mins.

guyz,,,thnx for the advices... n yest nite i shifted 2 beta 4 free x10 rom..
everything is fine.... i installed video illusion..but i seem 2 hav lost the sensitivity... i mean i have 2 slide my finger 2 or 3 times...to get the scrolling... and some times the icons dont get selected...is it becoz of the "illusion.."???
and 1 more thing.. when i use illusion... n record the video.. my voice is played like a chipmunks...what the hell is that??
i had the same problem too with the screen. so i switched roms but the video illusion is like that. i personally think its hilarious. lol but its how its processed through the phone i think for that app or the rom.

I tried the z cm7, very fast smooth and looks great, but Im really into miui now and please no flack but tripnravers new miui is really amazing, super fast. Its a matter of taste but depends on if you like cm or miui, I havent tried trip cm7 to compare but yes the z one is blazing fast. Hard to say what the best is but theres some great stuff popping up for x10 lately.

I´m with Z´s CM7. I was using Free X10 Gingerbread
Both are great ROMs, I´m having a "good" headache on choosing which one is the best for me.
WB-XPERIA TW Gingerbread V3.9.0 - for me, THE best !
CM7 Z-MOD V3....best rom out there atm.
CM7 Z-Mod seconded
Just wish the android camera could be skinned to look more appealing. I feel like im taking pictures for a funeral lol
Wolf V3.7 (waiting he finishes V 4) is the best for me Z V3, is great, but I like SE features, I never thought I could say that hehe, maybe because I have another android

Okay so i flashed almost all the ICS roms and it all lags on my X10. The speed is there but the animations lag. Like pulling down the notification bar , window animations , screen off animation. They all lag. Can some one tell me how to solve this? Is this a videolag problem or something? I really love the fastness of ICS roms. Im on FeraLab ICS v4 currently!
Hi bro,
first you may need to read this :
http://socialcompare.com/en/comparison/android-versions-comparison
ICS and JB required higher resource than GB,
so, we need to make its ALAP .
Probably you shoul try CM10 from Scrith for comparison.
FYI
but there was a review about this rom and everything went smoothly on the guys phone in the video!!

Really lot of options to make it smooth, such as tweaks, apps, cust your startup, etc.

From what I can tell, none of the ICS ROMS are 100% stable yet. And to get them running smooth will still take a bit of work, tweakings bits and pieces here and there to iron out the kinks. GL

I have my x10 running faster than before on Scritches v3 rom with Amin kernel p6005, if you try it I flashed scritches camera fix as Amin kernel needs the patch. P.s. don't flash the aeros libs or it will lag on that rom and kernel.
I was previously on Zmod7ver3 which is one of the fastest gb roms I've come across. You'll lose cam tho.
