you could try gingerDx aswell! it really works great with minimal bugs, or better lags if you want to call it like this.
I wouldn't flash the official CM yet!it is still too buggy.

I dont think thats the best one...
I tried it and camera not working youtube not working , market not working....etc
The only thing i liked about that is multi-touch only...
I think official android 2.1 is better than MiniCM7
I think ginger dx and flame e and mini cm7 are better than stock rom. I don't have any bugs on these.

its so hard to decide as alot of ppl say that one is best or another one, like this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1301684 says Gintonic is best
For Mini Pro, absoultely GinTonic right now, but some minor issue like G-sensor is still there, not a biggie.
Generally GingerDX based ROM is safe enough to be called stable on its base function.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1201116
I am using this and looks like this is really stable
Gintonic is very stable
Gintonic is very stable
few minor issues like 3 MP camera and some signal perturbation for the wifi and network
but all in all Excellent job for Slade 87!

Maybe we should propose a system to create a matrix for each ROM of what features works great, ok, buggy, not.
I think this could be better to select a ROM because: It is quite difficult to select one (and I'am too lazy too try all them)
I have used these since early september. GinTonic --> GingerDX --> Flame.E --> GinTonic again.
Everyone of these is great in my opinion, went back to GinTonic today and the last version is really great.
And i havent got any FC since i switched from stock kernel to Zombie Panic, slade87 have done a really fantastic work, both with kernel and rom.
Of course all the other devs is great too, without all you devs my Mini Pro would be very boring, but it feels that i got a new phone every time i upgrade/change ROM/kernel.
GingerDX or any other ROM/port by Stelios97.
Having said that, there's nothing wrong with SE's official 2.1 ROM either.
I used gintonic in the past, it was pretty good, then I changed to minicm7 pro v16 and was pretty happy with it for a couple of weeks until the new version (v17) was released.
So far it's pretty stable, the battery lasts a bit more than a day with light wifi usage and lots of sms's. The only thing that doesn't work is the radio, but besides that it's quite stable so far.

am currently running VaniliaEclair 4.0, want to flash a new rom, but dont want to change after that for a while
a question. Whats new in froyo ? its better to flash a eclair rom or froyo nowdays ? how stable is that ?
which rom do u prefer ? that are most stable, fast and great batterylife ?
i saw a benchmark thread here a while ago, listed that vaniliaEclair 5.0 was the fastest one and got the most power of all the roms. But that was a while ago... which rom is the leading one right now ?
I personally like Floyo. Everything that matters to me works nicely. Haven't found anything that doesn't work.
Allot of people would say Froyd Villain, Though its nice, it hasent had any update for the past few months.
Ok a small text about the differences of the 3 that are out there who got atleast a name.
1. Froyd: Made by the well known Villainteam. It was for its time the best one (2 months ago) Still runs nice, had a wicked fast GPS fix, 5 to 10 sec. Has allot of preinstalled apps. On the villainsite there are allot of themes you can use with this rom. And I mean ALLOT
2. Elelinux: More up to date then Froyd, way less themes avalable then Froyd, though more stable for my taste. Still some preinstalled apps.
3. Floyo, My fav. Clean, basic fast, and up to date . Made by the creator of the awesome FlyKernel, wich i now even use with my Slide Port rom. This one had 2 awesome themes you can choose to use, its fast basic and stable like a good oiled up car .
I would say Floyo is the best, but thats my oppinion .
Have never tried Fusion rom, cuss the notes dont really atract me to use, and i havent seen any themes for it . Some say its nice some don't just try them all and use the one you like
I've tried them all. FROYO_2.2_Special_Edition_v2 by elelinux is the first one I'm using for more then a week.
Sent from my HTC Hero using XDA App
I liked VanillaEclair4, now i have Floyo.
VE4 little faster, but no updates anymore.
But i have not test any else ROM, so i can´t say...
all are great, try them all and choose the one suitable you
Wish these topic were locked immediately with the comment "learn to read"
FYI - i could link you to at least 10 topics from the last month discussing the exact same thing and nothing has changed - its getting frustrating seeing the same thing over and over again
FusionROM is pretty decent, but I like Floyo the best. It is very stable.
HWMNBN has a pretty good 2.2 ROM out right now (Cronos Froyo). It is very quick and responsive and has a really nice optional Galaxy-based theme.
hmm i have hard time to choose rom =) i really dont like to try each out it will take forever for me xD
so basicially the best rom to go is Floyo ? if i want a 2.2 rom ? i want to run with flykernel 11, is it ok ? how stable will it go ?
so is it more powerfull than VaniliaEclair 5 ?
btw i have read that froyo is 2.5 times faster than eclair, is it true ? i mean htc hero will never get the official 2.2

It's a good 2.2 ROM to start with, IMO. Very stable.
Pretty sure Flykernel-11 in included in Floyo. The ROM dev is also the kernel dev (Erasmux).
If you don't like it, just flash another ROM! Hell, flash all of them this weekend if you'd like to.
I've been reading through this for a while and can't seem to find any info on this, of course...it could be due to lack of sleep, but who's counting the hours??
SO...Which of the Froyo Roms out there are the Best/working as far as features go? Running 2.1 Update 1 on mine currently...With xRecovery installed.
I like renderio2005 rom with a gingerbread theme. I had very little problems with it.
But like gingerbread better. Just an opinion

Right - But isn't there still a couple issues with things working on the Gingerbread roms for this phone?
I'm using Wolfbreak's CM 6.1.3 V4.3 [06-03-11] [Tweaked+Theme+Extras]. For me, its very very stable. Didn't give me any problems until now.
Renderios rom is 2.2. If u were wondering

+1 except for the camera (known issue with all froyo's as far as I can tell).
So is the gingerbread ROM thats out there just as stable as the froyo roms? And are you guys flashing these over with xRecovery?
Wolfbreak's CM 6.1.3 V4.3 is very stable, fast and highly recommended
I use the native camera with no issues and use Vignette if I need to use the camera flash.
I also use the version of Videocam Illusion in the link below for video recording which has been tweaked by the developer to run on our Froyo based X10 roms. The quality isn't great but it's better than not having any video recording facility:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=984925
Lmao you can tell what I'm using by my sig
Yeah I love this ROM, especially with all the added customization you can do through the CyanogenMod Settings Menu, such as change LED colors and easily change themes, it makes it a great ROM :]
Camera works and to take video, you have to use Videocam Illusions with only records in 640x480. But I can deal with that.
question, anyone notice X10's battery drain a lot faster with Froyo roms?

Yeah I've kinda noticed this as well. I suppose its kinda understandable since the froyo roms run a hair faster you know?
-----
From X10 XDA App on Wolfbreak's CM6.1v4 Froyo 2.2.1
No battery drain on Free X10 Beta 4, for me anyway. I'd say the same or even slightly better.
Im pretty sure that I'm running the Generic 2.1 Update 1 on mine now, The only issue I've got is I'm picking up 4G Speeds throughout Colorado (except up here in the hills) and I'd be more concerned with loosing that when going to one of the custom ROM's...
Could just be me, But this phone SCREAMS when you get that lovely little "H" on the signal bar! Dunno - Maybe I'll try it since I backed up my stock ROM yesterday with xRecovery...We'll just have to see, but it sounds like Wolfbreaks ROM is the best one out there next to the Free Beta4 one...
Thanks for all the input
I use CyanogenMod-6.1.1-v03 and have done for several weeks now, its really stable with a few issues, like the camera (common problem for most roms) and bluetooth sometimes acts a little weird when I try to pair it with my MW600 headset.
Battery drainage is normal, but I use a extended battery with 2600mAh instead of original, so its hard for me to compare.

You still get HSPA. If you think your phone flies now, wait until you try 2.2. We would not be on it if it was slower. Speed is basically what you are getting by giving up a fully functional camera and other customizations.
I switch between FreeX10 beta4 and rendeiro's cm6.1.3 and would say they're both pretty stable. I don't have a problem with either one for daily use. I switch back to modded 2.1s for camera and camcorder.

THERE IS A FIX FOR CAMCORDER FOR FROYO ROMS...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=994336
Just bought this phone (Sony Xperia x10) for my wife, after I smashed her Samsung galaxy S 4G during an argument last night. I ordered it overnight shipping so it should be here by Monday or Tuesday.
Now there were no custom roms out at the time she had her Galaxy 4G, so it was only rooted.
Yet after visiting the development section for this phone it looks like there are tons of roms being cooked up for this one, so I just wanted to get a few opinions on what roms are worth flashing? I'm looking for speed and stability above all. Its for my wife, so I want to be able to just flash something for her and never bother updating and flashing again for a month or two months at a time. Now if it were my phone I'd be flashing every other day! But that's only because I can handle bugs, beta testing, and known issues so on and so forth. Women though, they just want their phone to work, period. So what's the most stable rom to flash for the x10? Any insight, suggestions, heads up, and links would help, as I haven't got my hands on it yet, I want to go ahead and research as much as I can about it, so I can root, flash, and customize it for her right out of the box. Thanks.
cobratos miui is REALLY good...
Wolfbreaks cm 6.1.3 is also fantastic
I flashed cm 7 gb onto my gf's htc wildfire. Its completeley stable. She gets like 2 or 3 fc's every few days and guess what.......she still bloody moans lol.
Anyway back on topic....i vote for wolfs cm 6.1.3. Super stable, bug free and must be close to final release.
for stability i recommend z's freex10 roms
for eyecandy i recommend cobratos miui (my daily rom, fairly stable, has few bugs)
the stock 2.1 rom is not bad at all, just gotta optimize it a bit (remove bloatware, enable JIT, Sysctl, compucache, build.prop mods)....i think there are a few 2.1 roms with these mods already in place, however i havent used a 2.1 rom for a long time
if she wants take advantage of the nice camera on the x10, i recommend going the 2.1 route as the camera interface and quality is the best with stock 2.1 (IMO)

Since it is for your wife I recommend android 2.1. There are some nice girly themes out here for it, and she won't freak out of bugs.
Hi,
I've tested 5 roms :
-> original SE last update 2.1 : lot of lag
-> kX10 R2B001 - 03FEB1 : 2.1 rom modded : better than the official one : good but not for playing
-> 2.2.1 FROYO : very good but some bugs (like translation) and don't like the launcher, too slow for me : good for iphone lovers
-> Achotjan_Froyo_2.2.1 : 2.2.1 rom modded : the best for me : it's french lol -> Actually, found no bug, the best for me : very stable, better than the official, very fast (BB58)

MIUI are good if you like the lay out of Iphone as that is what it looks like in respects..
Irun z's freex10 2.2b4 hotfix1 and data2sd. fast realiable basic... theme it with xfx10. and your done!
+1 for z freex10 beta 4 hotfix 1
Solid as a rock and lightning quick
For a little more customization I would recommend Wolfbreaks CM6.1.3
Maybe freex10 now and CM6.1.3 in a couple of months?? Just my opinion

Use Trips MIUI (2.2.1)

Its the BEST MIUI rom with fully working camera and camcorder.
I am using it as daily rom. It is super fast and smooth.
many devs says here that ROM is perfect and EVERYTHING works,the problem is the with the definition of EVERYTHING,its differnt for every dev,for major roms you cant use camcorder so cant use goggles,bar code scanner ,video cam in all settings,there are some walk troughs and ways but then you cant call it everything
just go with 2.1,modify the stock one ,thats the best option
you broke the last phone....if there are too many lags,your wife will smash the phone this time
for us its all ok,for your wife dont take any chance!!!

Not all women just want their phones to work, period Some of us can flash our own ROMs. I used z's Freex10 but prefer wolf's CM 6.1.3 since it's very fast and good on battery. However different people have different problems with the ROMs they flash and it's worth paying attention to instructions
I strongly recommend you take look at this thread: talk.sonyericsson.com/message/59415 . It has many good ROM's for the X10 with some good feedback.
I have personally tried the stock ROM with JIT enabled and removed bloatware (did everything needed to make it quick) it worked good but the battery life sucked. Then tried FreeX10 and its pretty good and quick but yet again battery life wasn't any better than the stock one. Then tried CM by Wolfbreak and its pretty darn good. Battery life is def better and so is speed.
Im going to be honest with you none of these ROM's are even close to perfect. They all have slight bugs, all force close once in a while.
So here's my advice, if your wife isnt exactly tech savy + likes to use features such as the camera and wifi alot than stick to the stock ROM and wait for SE's update this year.
If she is a problem solver (isnt afraid of using google to solve any problems she has) and doesnt want a phone that lags to often and has good battery life than go for Wolfbreaks CM 6.1.3. Although wifi and camera can pose problems sometimes on this ROM
Hope this helps

I feel like you guys are feeding him misinfo, I haven't had any force closes on either of the roms I posted, they were/are completely stable.
Hey guys, so i just got an X10 yesterday. It's my first smartphone (had an HP Ipaq Winmobile 6.5 previously). Right now it's running CM 6.5 I believe, that's how I bought it. I have two simple questions, please.
1) What's a good screen cover? Should I just go to the nearest "we have everything" store and pick up a matte screen protector, or should I get a specific one? I leave it in my pocket and no screen protector is a big no-no!
2) What is the best ROM (and kernel??) for me to get, if I have the following needs:
i) Fast. Right now it feels pretty blazing to be honest!
ii) Multi-touch please!!! I really don't like how X10 has no MT!
iii) Need Wi-Fi and GPS (I don't have a data plan)
iv) Need camera support for apps. I use camera a lot, the current ROM doesn't allow apps to use camera really, and there's no support for the front-facing camera (is that even a camera?)
v) Ideally gingerbread, but I don't care as long as it meets other requirements.
vi) Flash, again, no biggy.
vii) Support for apps, including, if possible, 3D games. Video codecs are a must. I tried hero of sparta just for fun and it didn't work it said closed unexpectedly)
viii) If possible, as free of bugs as can be. Right now my touchscreen gives out sometime, nothing major but annoying.
Thank you SO MUCH!!! I know I'm basically asking you to do everything for me, but I have owned the phone for 12 hours and besides not knowing anything, am spending all my time trying to get my phone company not to charge me $25 to make put my data on a SIM.
I'll do my best to figure everything else out myself, I just need help figuring out which ROM (and if need be, kernel) I should use on the X10.
THANKS!!!
in your case the best option would be to just install the Sony ericsson software on your computer and do an update, it will install the latest most stable version of Android for your device (Froyo 2.1) then just use a flashtool to root it if you want. This will enable you to have full features with minimal bugs.

Wow, FAIL, sorry!
I'm running 6.1.3 right now, v4.5 and kernel version 2.6.29 SEMCuser...
Is that fine? Should I just leave it? I'm fine with a few hiccups if this is the best possible for now...
Also, I have yet to unlock the phone. Can I do it while it's in a custom rom or do I need to reset to factory? From Rogers to Bell.
Thanks.

Yeah you can totally unlock on any rom, just put the other companies sim card into the phone!!
I would say maybe update to the latest version of wolfbreak's rom, but you could also try freex10 beta 4 or cobrato's miui, depending on what style you like.
They're all complete, and I have no issues with any of them.
The speed you will gain from a 2.2 rom vs. a 2.1 rom is insane, plus apps2sd and other benefits.
I don't think you could pay me to go back to 2.1...
Also, get vignette from the market for the cam. It's awesome

Vignette is just for the camera, not for the camcorder. It takes amazing pics though (hardly compresses them) and has a TON of effects.
Yes, I agree with wolf's latest rom and cobrato's miui rom, both are fast,smooth and stable. I use both of them regularly. If you choose cobrato's rom and don't like the UI being like iPhonish, you can instal GO Launcher EX and it will even fly (that what I do with cobrato's rom). In fact with wolf's rom also I'm using GO Launcher EX as a replacement of Arc Launcher (really don't like that launcher).
Ok, wolf it is then seeing it's unanimous!
What about the screen protector...do either of you use it? I'm just careless with putting my phone next to my keys and stuff...

yes, I'm using Xtreme_guard, bought it from ebay for $3 includes shipping...
Wait...when you guys refer to wolfbreak...you mean CM 6.1.3?
Also, I guess I'll just get a random X10 screen protector if it's cheap and matte when I'm in Chinatown? Any downside to that?

wtf is froyo 2.1? lol
Froyo is 2.2.......
Anyhow op, wolfbreaks cm 6.1.3 i really good, as is cobratos miui. Neither have any bugs..
If you need any help let me know.
Also, that is not a front facing camera, it is a proximity sensor

HAHA my bad, had a long night last night. sorry for the confusion.
Wolfbreak is amazing ROM...i switched from freex10 beta 4 hotfix 1, and wolfbreak's ROM just totally amazes me. Partly because he's the only one that tweaks the build props. I got a whopping 1504 on my quadrant score!
Vignette is good camera replacement as the member above me said (personally, i never use the camera)
HD games...i can play almost any gameloft HD game on my x10, BIA2, Asphalt 5, Modern Combat 2, Real Football e.t.c... just not good cos the dual touch on the x10 is very dodgy. Oh yeah, download the game guerrilla bob...its my favourite game.
Keep in mind before flashing the wolfbreak rom, u need to flash the required baseband (for me, its baseband 58) via flashtool.

Also in xrecovery wipe cache partition, dalvik cache and do a full factory reset, as well as a system backup, instructions in wolfbreak's ROM thread.
Oh btw: the x10 already has a screen protector; its factory and its put on perfectly incase you dint notice, otherwise you can buy those others on ebay, i bought ten for like 3 bucks (aussie)
Make sure you put it on properly to avoid bubbles, use credit card to squash bubbles. e.t.c
Enjoy

Hey, i am using my Hero as my work phone and am running Floyo 1.2.0 which has been a good rom, but i have the urge to try something else for a change.
Can someone recommend a good, stable and fast rom for everyday use?

I tried a lot of all roms, so far 2.1 seems to be the more fast and stable of all, except elelinux speedmachine which is also great, but i'm a "sense" guy, give it a shot its great.
I'd recomend Goku's Decked up for Life rom. Its up to date 2.3.7 and easily the fastest and most stable GingerBread rom I have tried.... and I have tried a few. No FC issues... very fast.... lightweight and memory friendly. Read the thread and you'll see he started with a quick rom and its just getting better with every release.
Use the link in my signature. Do a nandroid backup 1st.... then give it a few days. Worst case scenario.... its not for you and you can go back to your original and search on.

I can confirm that this ROM is best from what i have tried regarding stability, memory management and speed
I can attest for the Heroine ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1295991). It is very nice AND very stable. Been running it continuously for about a week which is long for me.
The Aeonflux ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1284830) is also very nice and stable. I think I'll go back and check it out again.
That Floyo 1.2 ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=784689) you've been using is a great 2.2.1 ROM as you've probably noticed.
Another 2.2.1 ROM I use sometimes is Froyd 1.7.3-R2 (no xda link I could find so http://www.villainrom.co.uk/forum/showthread.php/4617-May-15th-FroydVillain-1.7.3-R2-Released). Froyd SEEMS to slow down / bog down slightly over time but I MIGHT be imagining it.
