Trying to help out a friend regarding roms - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey x10 people, I don't have a clue about this phone, but a friend has an x10a on Fido network. It is getting old and slow, is there any roms that you can point us in the direction of that would breathe some new life into his phone?
Does cyanogenmod have a rom made? Or anything with ICS?
Thanks in advance for any info! :thumbup:

Hey,
yes there are many Roms that let your X10 fly high :=)
I suggest you : DonutHD( my Sig) MIUI, Feralab( Gaming experience + fast ) Cyanogenmod D= Just loook in the developer thread, and search for this names.
Wish you a happy flashing
But be careful you can easily get flashaholic
Addiction risk is high

If I were you,Id look into
unlocking bootloader
doomkernel 1113
donut new rom
The donut thread is only 80 odd posts long,so it dont take long to see bugs/fixes.Youll see what I mean if you install some other roms that have 2000 posts to look through

Thanks! As I said I have no clue about this phone, it seems more complicated than my nexus s. I will look those up and pass on the info. I am sure we will be back for more info!

Poll for Eris roms?

Hey, I was just wondering if anyone has thought about posting a poll for the most popular Eris roms..or is that just not cool/not needed/uninteresting/stop asking stupid questions you stupid newb?
Or maybe it's a good idea..and now I can't edit the poll to add that as an option..
Just try different roms yourself. Everyone likes different ones.

Thanks for the suggestion..that one seems to be a really popular one, I starting to lean that way as my starting point..
Best Eris Rom ?
I agree that it really depends on personal opinon.
As I haven't tried very many ROM's, actually only 2 , I have researched this quite extensively and the 2 I have tried and like verrrry much are:
KaosFroyo - I was running v37, but v38 just came out an hour ago
NonsensikalFroyo - I have run 9.5 & 10.1 Black & Blue but im flashing 10.8.1 B&B now
.... both have released updates within the last 24-48 hours.
I havent tried TazzFroyo but I would make that these the top 3 to try first !
Nonsensikal is a Cyanogen Mod build, Kaos is a CM/AOSP build
I hope this helps you narrow things. Happy flashing
Awesome!! Thanks so much! I'm probably going to flash KaosFroyo first since so many have suggested it..
Thanks again!
I just went to kaosfroyo v38. Its sick but celbfroyo is good cause its faster
Sent from my FroyoEris using XDA App
celbfroyo is faster eh? Are you overclocking on the KFv38? Is it noticeably laggy?

I second that notion. Also I dont keep up with whats happenning with these roms and just check back here around once a month. It would be really cool if there were constantly new polls that would allow people like me to see what is popular at that point in time to give us a reference point of what to check out.
Thanks for the +1..maybe I just need to start a real one and people will jump on board.
I don't know what overclocking is. I have tazzfroyo now an its faster than v38
Sent from my Vanilla Tazz using XDA App
Overclocking allows you to run the processor at higher than stock speeds. I think most people are running it at around 750mhz where the stock speed is 528mhz.
Basically you can unlock a lot of hidden speed by overclocking at the sacrifice of some battery life.
Your rom may already have an overclocking app installed..do a search for it if your interested, I know I am
It would be a lot of bias. People get attached to roms and their developers so yeah. And different phones will behave differently with different roms.

[Q] Which Rom is the best?

Hi guys,
I have just registered to this great site!
Can you please inform me which is the best custom ROM for my ace?
I need a stable and fast ROM!!
Thank you in advance!
theres no such thing as "the best rom". it really depends on ur preference.
i might be mistaken my friend. I am new and i don't know much from roms!
I need my phone to be fast and stable!
With the standard ROM many applications lag so i would like to avoid these lags!
Witch Rom would you suggest?
uranus.
Seriously.
I'm kinda tired of this kind of question, because it's one of the most common questions, so you could just search it on the forum.
Anyways, you'll have to try it yourself, everyone likes different things. I'm using GingerReal. Other preffer Gslmt, cm7 beta or whatever.
Read a little more.
well, if u need stock rom function try custom rom based on stock. or if u wanna try aosp rom try cm7. but cm build for ace is still not that stable. u might stumble a problem/bugs here and there. for stock based rom, i highly suggest blackhawk by ketut.kumajaya
I suggest that you let your lazy ass read the forums.

Well currently I'm using the BehradGH's CM7 and also I have used many other ROMS like FirstUA v.1.2, Coderom, GingerReal, SanGingerAce and also Grif's CM7.. All those ROMS are really great and every ROM has its pros and cons.. So it all depends on your preference.. Even I'm a newb to the Android world.. So the best way to find out would be to try out all the ROMS out there and select what matches your requirements.. Also go through the comments because some of the feedbacks are really useful..

Yeah , you should try out but with caution !
as you may brick it or something.
hi. i wanna try the BehradGH's CM7.
are chinese and italian available?
there are big problems in the rc1 version?
Well RC1 is far from being a real Release Candidate, it's more like a advanced Beta.
Compass and FM is not working yet and you might encounter some bugs now and then.
It's just something between funny and sad to see flashing newbies struggling with CM7.
Apart from that, Chinese and Italian is avaible.
Well, for now, it seems all roms are (overall) the same: the same functionalities but under different names, some are aimed for speed and stability others just are eye candy.
I would recommend trying fla.shX2 and SanGingerAce. While I have tried the first one but not the latter, try and go ahead. Just remember to backup!
CWM back up will be your friend if you kinda flash and jump and compare 1 rom to another..^^
Hey stop asking such question again n again...xda wont allow any comparasion btw ROMs...so pls dont reply...this thread will close in few moment...

[Q] New owner, what is the best ROM available?

Which ROM out there has the best support and the least flaws? I know none will be perfect but I would like a ROM that is fast,stable, and has optimal battery life. I know i could use the V6 Supercharger to make a ROM faster but I would like to know what ROM you guys recommend? Thanks
For the 10 billionth time: It's really up to you to figure this out. Considering that there's only 4 custom ROMs available (for the 7510), I think you are capable of doing the research yourself.

Which version are you using ?
"In Paris V5"IS LIVE! (KME) Wifi ONLY!
I´m rly happy with this one.
What the best stock Rom so far regarding smoothness and speed ?
Sorry for hijacking ur thread
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
I'm going to second the in paris v5, I just rooted and flashed and couldn't be happier. There is one clich that I found and that is on some web pages in browser it will not let you go back with the back arrows, small problem but so far the only one I see.
Task650 makes the best ROM.
Sent from my GT-P7510 using xda premium
check out the dev. forums, do a little research. If your asking you shouldn't be flashing roms really. All v6 supercharger does in most cases is mess things up
So avoid flashing supercharger? It doesn't take a computer genius to flash a ROM, I just don't have the time to flash every ROM and mess with it, thanks for the positive responses though.

I have yet to see any real proof that the supercharger script actually makes this thing better. I have flashed and run all of the different ROMs, and its really up to you as far as look and feel are concerned.
As far as support goes, I will say that Task and Phantom has been great in keeping us bug free, but I have not interacted with the other devs as much, and so I won't knock their Roms because I can't say what their level of support is.
Happy Flashing
Overcome is good too
I will say that I like both in Paris and Overcome. In Paris has a custom theme which I'm not fond of but you can install the touchwiz theme over it if you prefer. I like Overcome because it is the stock honeycomb theme.
It's really a rather personal choice so you do have to try more than one to decide.

Let my phone rest in peace

Is there any ROM that allows the phone to be turned off while charging?
Currently using Mik's 6.5.8.
Don't understand while they haven't implemented this option.
Yes, alot of froyo roms ie...devoid froyo final,mgatron,void forever (I think) have they battery charging thing, I don't know of the technical reason for it not being on cm7, haven't really cared to much to find out but I guess there was a poll of users who opted it out for cm7
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
All roms based on official lg firmware have this feature.
That's megatron, just search for ciaox's repository of mods or something to that extent..I want to say its under the android development stickies in our device forum...its a chronological list of roms by versions,tutorials and different kernel versions
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
I've never used official anything, once I rooted I stuck with custom roms and unofficial ports...back in the day,flashing radio's on cupcake/donut was easy, radio's are today's basebands, I've stuck to old baseband since I've had this phone

Oh well, I guess I have to do some lobbying to the CM folks.
Obviously, the phone must have the ability to stay ON while being charged. But there are also times when it makes sense to turn off the phone.
Just imagine the amount of energy saved if all the phones are powered off for 8 hours a day!
let it charge in recovery, it's almost as good as the froyo roms charging mode. pretty fast, too.
I dont wanna cr8 new thread thats why i posted in this thread..i m not able to charge...yesterday at nite it wan 32 & today mornin same i came frn skool but still same.
I hve searched but cant find any answer..! so guyz plz help.. :'(
I hve to go to camp tummorow..so help me asap..

Proud new owner with a few questions

Hey everyone, I just purchased a new note from Telus in Canada and I love it. It was quite a substantial upgrade from my old x10. With the x10 it was almost a MUST to use a custom rom to get it working at a satisfying speed. I'm just wondering if thats the case with the Note, is there a substantial increase in performance with the roms? I dont mind touchwiz but I think i would prefer stock android or CM. All of this was pretty easy to do with the x10 but i'm feeling pretty lost right now, any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks
Its been almost 3 weeks with my note and I did not notice any lags I just love it the way it is.........but I did rooted it asap for apps like s voice and s3 widgets etc ....i might flash the 1st jellybean rom which comes....lol .....
If its ics ...its good...
If its on gingerbread ....then update it ota ...
Enjoy!
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
The note does lag....not bad in some cases but if u can live with it thats great..if u come to the custom rom world u can remove tons of bloat oc uv kernels bigjoe has a super everything thread thats really handy i rooted and flashed mine within hours...i love hiw much faster and smoother it is...most ppl that have not rooted have no idea how bad it lags until they get a custom rom

Thanks for the responses guys, JB could you point me in the right direction? I'm currently on stock 4.0.4 if that helps SGH-I717D
My rom is so light and small my phone lag is non-existing compared to my girlfriends stock gingerbread one
Sent from my Note i717 rock in out with my sock out using AOCP
cyanogen is working on jelly bean for the note. as soon as it's ready you can be sure it will be at the top of the development section.
also if you're already rooted then there is no reason not to flash a custom rom. it takes 5 minutes tops and it removes all the carrier bloat and adds some goodies and tweaks we all love. try out team perfections latest release if you like the stock feel but without the garbage.
See my signature pic, click it
And go to the gnote super page....has the listing for ROM, tools, info....
