should i install the second's link mod? i mean it seems like an update or should i keep the one that i installed today?

MiniCM7 is based on Android 2.3 Gingerbread
MiniCM9 is based on Android 4 Ice Cream Sandwich
You can't just upgrade from one to the other, you will need a different kernel as well.
MiniCM9 is still in early development so if you want to avoid issues or hickups stick with what you have now, If you like to experiment and experience the latest google has to offer, by all means try MiniCM9 but make sure you flash the nAa-ICS-03 kernel first and do a full wipe of your system.
actually i am pretty interested in the new android version i would prefer the CM9 but since it's new i will keep my CM7 and i will update to CM9 when i will have more experience and so on
thanks

if you decide to update, don't forget to install nAa-ics-03 kernel before: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1636504

Well, as many of you know (and who doesn't, now you know), today at 00:00 google has released the source code of ICS, so now I've got a question: There'll be any ICS based MiniCM version coming soon?
I know this question could seem stupid but I'm really excited about this! [email protected]
i dont know too if theres a release of what is your looking for, but as of now theres a ICS ginger based by Plancton.fr a great ROM based on MiniCM7 pro v21 by Paul-xxx and nicely done...credit to the creators..
check this out..

Well first of all you'd have to wait for an ICS version of Cyanogenmod to come out, and then wait to see whether someone can port it and whether it will run without being terribly laggy on our phones. Short answer - not soon.
Hi can someone help a noob like me?
My Xperia arc's stock version was 2.3.2 i updated it while ago expecting that the update i was getting was 4.0 (ics) but then to my surprise it only went up for 2.3.4 and also a change in the Build Number 4.0.2.A.0.62.
Can you help me upgrade mine to 4.0? what should i do and what are the steps? thanks, i hope i could get an answer here, i badly wanna have that OS
ICS isn't available for SE models as of now. If I were you, I would just wait some more time (a month maybe?) until Sony decides to release ICS. Perhaps there is a beta rom port or a CM9 port, but I wouldn't do that if I were you if you don't have any experience flashing roms and kernels.
So, sorry to ask this here but no "General" forum for the Ray unfortunately...
My wife's Gingerbread Ray is showing some signs of fatigue and I want to update it in order to start with a fresh new Rom.
It's running stock 2.3 right now and I'm not excited to update to the official 4.0 as I've read quite a lot about its very poor reactiveness.
I am planning to go with a custom Rom. I know my wife won't like to change of UI so I'm looking for an optimized official version. But if the phone does get way more responsive with an aosp/cm9 ROM (and I'm pretty sure it will), aosp/cm9.
The thing is that it has to be stable and fully functional cause I won't be updating it daily. Actually, if it was my phone, I would test roms out for a week or two, but it's a no go here : I will have to find the right one right away or she won't be happy !
So what is the best, stable, fast, fully-functional 4.0 ROM out there ? If such thing doesn't exist yet and if I should wait a while, tell me. I'll wait.
Thanks !
the latest 4.0.4 is quite ok, have u tried it?
I think you should ask jj doctor to give you an old jj hyrid rom. Its aosp and stable.Or wait some more time when he relese the final version for 3.0 ROM

I second that.
Why no developer working on MIUI Rom based on Gingerbread 2.3.7 since Android 4.0 based roms still not fully working due absence of drivers.Such as the MIUI 2.4 ,it is stable than ics and MIUI V4.
Because if you look in the developer forums, there is no 2.3.7 release for our device. Highest and most recent version of android is 2.3.5 Gingerbread.
Besides that, we have no direct kernel access, so we currently can't have a full ICS experience.
Because upstream MIUI has moved on from CM7 and the CM9 we have is definitely stable enough to use.
If you want one, make one! That's what I did.

Cool ！！But I never make a rom .Where I can learn this ？？？ And thank you for your miui 2.7.20 :laugh:
Hi,
I am not at all satisfied with the performance of the official latest update provided by Sony i.e., 4.1.B.0.587.
Posted many times on their support forum but no solution received yet.
It has several issues, naming few:
Hanging Issue (phone is on standby mode and suddenly starts ringing without any display on screen until you turn it off).
Battery Drainage (Major portion of the battery is consumed by Android OS).
Low on stability and performance. (very slow)
Current Version Details:
Model: Sony Xperia Mini Pro / SK17i
Android Version: 4.0.4
Kernel Version: 2.6.32.9 -perf (Why is Sony still using kernel 2.6.x when they should have switched to 3.x?)
Build Number: 4.1.B.0.587
I am looking forward for a custom ROM installation. Kindly suggest me the best ROM for my phone (I have also read on some forums that MIUI is better than CyanogenMod). Is that so???
It is the first time I am doing any custom installation on phone so will really appreciate if you can provide me the links of the forum from where I can get the details of how to proceed with the same.
Eagerly waiting for a prompt and positive response.
Thanks in advance.

Well, I know about that post, I am dicey between CM & MIUI, just wanted the suggestions/feedback on both so that there is more clear picture in front of me.
Also should I wait for more stable JB?

Is your bootloader unlocked? Otherwise forget about cyanogenmod.
You could try my MIUI rom, it works on locked bootloader, too!
MIUI has lots of features, many are very great and usefull. There are great little things like being on lockscreen and holding homebutton acivates the flashlight.
MIUI is great, so just try it. How to install custom roms is in my signature, my MIUI rom, too :good:
And please read the sticked threads next time!

read sticky threads before posting
cm7 is based on vanilla gingerbread android source and it is fast. got more bugs than stock gingerbread rom.
ics miui is based on stock ics. its beautiful and got more feature than cm but its hunger on resource and sometime can be laggy too.
cm9 is based on vanilla ics android source and it is fast. but probably got more bugs than stock based rom.
aokp ics is based on vanilla ics android source too and same as source based rom, it is fast. got more feature than cm9 and inherit the same bugs as cm9.
paranoid android ics is the same, based on vanilla ics android source and it is fast too. got a feature exclusive to it which is ability to chose between phone ui, table ui or hybrid between both. imho not really suitable for our small screen phone.
cm10 is based on vanilla jellybean android source, got more bugs than cm9.
aokp jellybean is based on vanilla jellybean android source too, got more feature than cm10 and inherit same bugs as cm10.
paranoid android jellbean is same, based on vanilla jellybean android source. same as paranoid android ics, got the ability to chose between phone ui, tablet ui or hybrid. got the same bugs as cm10.
pacman jellybean is a hybrid between cm10, aokp and paranoid android. got all feature of those three, some sort of mash up rom. its based on vanilla jellybean android source too and inherit the same bugs as cm10.
that should sum it all up.
