Stock launcher & lockscreen. CM7 uses ADW launcher (which is one of the worst launcher I've ever tested..)

NEO.TWEAKED is ugly but, nicely tweaked.
Their notification panel is ugly with that android bot on the bottom + written everywhere "NEO.TWEAKED" meh...
I'd say, just install latest Gingerbread SEMC and install tweaks one by one. There are nice kernels in dev forums..
[KERNEL] PwnKernel
[KERNEL] NightElf Kernel mod for FXP Rom/AchotjanRom/MIUI Rom/Stock (42,62)
[KERNEL] Inteks Kernel Clean OC V15 4.0.2.A.0.42
Or there's this ROM
[NEO] Semc Debrand Engine | V1.0 | Hotfix-1 | FreeXperia Project (Never tried that ROM tho..)

MiniCM7 + nAa Kernel = Best Combination.
I have minicm7 by paul, but feel afraid for changing the kernel, I don't know what benefits will I get unlocking my bootloader, flashing a new kernel, and using the same rom...

Unlock bootloader benefit, wifi tether by nAa kernel and CWMv5<< FTW!
ZPK << stable a lot..
Simple kernel << sad case wifi not working
Fa kernel v0.4 << nice, a lot feature (smartass,CWM5)
nAa kernel << for now is the best, wifi tether is fully native now due to added netfilter, sad: only works with minicm7 v2.1.7 ROM only or other ROM contain build in wifi source(only minicm7 v2.1.7). If use other custom ROM except minicm7 v2.1.7, all other ROM will get wifi error.
for my personal i choose nAa bcoz netfilter, have netfilter u will get more application support.
sry for my bad english >.<
Yeah, I had to do it, the comments was so good tha I decide to test it...
And I can see is so much better..!

[Q] You Choose The Best ROM

Which of the following ROM List most stable (I need stable than the Stock 2.1 ROM if it can) and fast :
- [ROM+KERNEL]X10MiniProTeam 0.5 + nAa Kernel
- [ROM] MiniCM7Pro - V21 FINAL + Stock Kernel / nAa Kernel
- [ROM] MiniCM7-2.1.9 Gingerbread 2.3.7/CM7.2 + nAa Kernel
I will be based on that for development this ROM Offical 2.3.7 from HERE
MiniCM7.
Like every other GB ROM, it does have memory issues. ICS gives plenty of memory, as much as stock, but its still in beta stage. MiniCM7 is the best we've got.
Yup, there's a lot of new ROM out there, but still got some bugs on it and likely something missing and we need to flash other zip file to fix it up. Most of the failure is about wifi connection, keybord light, force closed, network problem. This week I already used 3 rom. In the morning, I'm on prime HDv2 but right now, I'm using xmpteam rom v0.5.
Sent from my U20i using XDA
Hmmm if u choose mini cm pro v21. U better use stock kernel rather than nAa kernel.. A lot of user's out there had theire touch screen not responding.
Sent from my U20i using XDA
I suggest you to use as base MiniCM7 or PrimeHD.
I have been using MiniCM7 for a while now... I must say I have no complaints about it...
MiniCM7 by nAa.
MiniCM7Pro - V21 FINAL by paul-xxx , running on stock kernel. It's the best we've got until: V03 of paul-xxx's Ice Cream Sandwich rom with fully functioning in-built WiFi. I don't want to have to flash extra zip/s to get the WiFi working - I'll unlock my bootloader, change to a custom kernel and use paul-xxx's ICS rom as soon as the WiFi just works. Plain and simple. I can't wait until V03!
[ROM] ArcMini X Remake WiFi Fixed [Links Updated] [24/2/2012]
this rom i think is very good.
just an idea
why dont you focus on stable GB rom for stock kernel?take minicm7pro as a base..and perfect it more (yep this rom is perfect, but do it more)..so that, new user come here, see you rom, download, n flash..(ofcourse they must have recovery first )..this my reasons
1. we already had a lot of gb rom using custom kernel, n new active one is x10mpteam, they doing great, so why do you want to make another?
2. we only had a couple rom using stock..and for x10mini, i dont see latest gb rom for stock, myb im wrong but after you done, you can port for them too..
MiniCM7 from nAa, with this I have 65-70mb free ram
Kernel may have something to do with it though as im on nAa-11..
Sent from my U20i using xda premium
i suggest x10 MP teams ROm with its kernel I have 92 mb free in every minute i can say and its very stable and improved 3d graphics just relax when you have a team like X10 MP team
I remember saying that the x10 mini is way ahead of the big x10 xperia.
And someone said that it's not true.... it is... and we still are.
Looks at the amount of roms with fixed EGL adreno 200 lib's for x10 mini.

"there's only one and it's unstable...."
I Was using MiniCM7Pro - from v7 to FINAL v21, had a locked bootloader...then when MiniCM7 2.1.7 build showed up for our mini pros, I need to unlock Bootloader, and i did it with a lump in my throat,but all went great.. And it paid off.Thanks to Paul-xxx and nobodyAtAll for there invested time and great developing skills they have. Thanks guys!

i was using that rom too, but since nAa ported his rom and kernel I immediately switched. gintonic is outdated and laggy compared to minicm7 2.1.9. but you must unlock bootloader and flash nAa kernel to get it working. back in the day it was longer process, and we had to do it manually, but today there are simple tools to do that easy and fast (unlocking bootloader).

It is a bit of a question of personal taste, but for me it still is MiniCM7-2.2.0 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1415026) together with nAa Kernel. Everything works, it is fast and it is stable.

[REQUEST] ICS look on stock Gingerbread 2.3.3 firmware

I really like the new ICS interface, i have tried cm6/7 but I always come back to stock gingerbread (because of lg camera, lg home etc.). Now my question: Is there any way I can have iCS cm7 like theme on stock Gingerbread rom? I mean something like this e.g. LINK1 LINK2 or THIS
And i dont want some UOT edited framework because i have tried and it not looks like cm7 ICS (no statusbar, no volume var, nothing good).
..or can someone please make or mod similar ICS cm7 theme for stock rom? A stock gingerbread rom themed like ICS is welcome too.

yes, I have stock Gingerbread rom deodexed and I just want the ICS look from cm7 achep theme. I cant get that "look" with uot.
It's simple, just open it with 7zip or any
its not so easy, i want that theme or similar one on my stock Gingerbread. Official theme sucks.

[Q] {Q} BEST COMBINATION OF ROM AND KERNEL FOR SK17i???

Guys what combination of rom and kernel do u most prefer for mni pro coz i been having a trial and error about this roms and kernel...tnx for the answers and explanation on why...
I am having the same issues. I find X Kernel gives the best battery life for Ginger Bread ROMs. I have yet to find a ROM that I am satisfied with. Currently I am running a rooted .62 and finding that to be the best balance. I have removed a bunch of apps based on the tutorial in this forum.
So far I've used the stock 4.0.4 ICS ROM with different kernels.
My most favorite kernels that were working are:
EXtended Stock Kernel - v2 4.1.B.0.431 (had a great battery usage... the most I got on-battery with this one was 22 hours with some light usage)
Rage Kernel v3.2 (i loved this one because of the swap and the ability to OC your CPU, but the battery performance was somewhat lower than the EXtended Stock Kernel - v2...)
You can always try the KRsH Kernel v3.0 but I didn't really like that one.
And currently I'm using the CM 9 RC1 ROM (check their official site) with FXP126 kernel and still testing the performance and stuff. So far I like this one more than all previous.
I hope this helps you out a little bit.
If you have any further questions, feel free to ask. And don't forget to hit the thanks button if this helped you a tiny bit
can you give me a link for tutorial for apps removing?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1089470
This link has apps that can be safely removed from the Xperia Arc. I removed the same apps from the Mini Pro without issue. The apps can be removed using Titanium backup on a rooted device.

ICS ROMs are in my opinion still work in progress, buggy if you will.
KRsH kernel v3 is very good at battery consumption
For stability, speed etc I prefer GB ROMs though.
Like CM7.2RC3 + Rage kernel, or Spartan ROM if you like stock. Also on Rage.
In the end it depends what you like. There is no absolute best ROM or kernel.
everyone likes different things.

Thank You very much
how about the combination for gaming guys??? do u have any idea?
and if i am using ics wht should a choose?
ICS sucks.. Bravia doesn't work on my minipro if i dont use xperia gallery app
+1 .. IMHO i prefer to use GB than ICS for a better gaming performance..my current ROM is real ICS lite 29th june, and my kernel is Rage Kernel v3.2 (which i suggest you it's worth to try)..and when im playing some HD game it's still LAGGY (which is not laggy in my previous GB ROM) like Vlachmed said.. i choose this kernel because of its swap capability..i really wanna go back to GB but cant find my old ROM's thread.. (Hybrom V17) apparently the dev has left XdA (too bad)
sorry for my bad english and grammar..
Best Rom and Kernel
Personally I use Real ICS and the kernel is Rage Kernel v3.2 ICS and my phone runs very fast and smooth
Gingerbread
For Gingerbread you can try NeroDroid , and Rage Kernel 3.0

Most stable ICS/JB Rom for LWW

Which one is the most stable ICS/JB based rom for LWW with everything including the accelerometer.... will appreciate the input....thanks
any rom based on stock ics should be fine.
imho source based rom like cm or aokp still had too many bugs.
i'm a miui fan so i'll recommend miui, i'm using lasan's miui 2.10.19 ics

You see, i have Mini Pro, and I also want just ported MIUI ROM without any modifications So maybe here is any developer who can just port latest MIUI ROM without any mods to our Mini Pro's?
u can port lasan's miui easily to other phone.

already answered, and to repeat, any rom based on stock ics should be fine with accelerometer in games and whatsnot.
even if its not as smooth as u expected, custom rom based on stock ics had far better accelerometer, camera, sound etc compared to source based rom.
for me, the stable rom for LWW is fxp130 cm7.2. it is GB. for ICS, i didn't found yet. i'm using cm7.2 right now. NO BUGS !

haha. sorie about that
i prefer: Hyperbeam Cream v4.0 + kernel panic 1.25
(drains 0.5% battery per hour during deep sleep while Playing 5 hours of music drains 20%
, therefore full charge = 25 hours Music)
CM9
CM 9.1 is better news for the LWW! Notification lights work great. There's also a mod around for enabling/disabling the music lights (which work both in CM7/CM9 btw). Stock kernel's battery life's not great though compared to CM 9.0. But it IS stable. Will have to look for a new kernel. Other than that, it's great! (MIUI has WIFI issues everytime with my LWW!)
CM 9.1 FXP144 with Geeky Engine is awesome. I don't like most off custom roms because all have bugs. CM 9.1 FXP144 for me is very good for my daily usage. The thing I miss most is xLoud
