Hy all,
I just got my Mini.
Can you give me some tipps, which kernel and ROM would be the best for everyday using and for gaming?
Also, other tips are welcome too
thx in advice.
Don't change anything, even don't update your phone until ICS comes; I promise you that's the best way playing games and etc.
update, root your phone install cwm recovery, remove bloatware. if you notice problem with back and manu keys just fix it(there is a solution on this forum).
maybe is better to wait day or two for ics release, and then pimp your phone.

I can tell you that the ICS will not be highly recommended for gaming because their OS is a bit heavier than GB. So I think you like games and wants to apply a custom ROM. This is because at risk but you can search for Rage Kernel or X Kernel for V17 Hybrom told me that it is brutal for Games. I tried to install on my LWW but could not. IF you are modifying your ROM PLEASE MAKE A FULL BACKUP WITH CWM. NOT TO CRY AFTER A BAD SET KERNEL
Ok thanks. I will use stock ROM untill a usable custom one is available
Hi people..
I have just unlocked my bootloader.. Can you please suggest ICS Roms for better and smooth performance than the stock Rom and the appropriate kernels for them!
And should I first install the rom or kernel?
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
First kernel, then rom.
Head out to dev section and have fun in testing and finding which is best for you. Everyone have different opinions. But try aosp or aokp roms
try the new xperia pureness v3 its amazing,its still beta but its very good
You can try night elf kernel plus ka21.1 ics rom.

if u want smooth working phone install Polish Blood....
if u want customized with toggles and everything use AKOP,CM9
if u want stock rom use Spacious, smooth and light ICS
but if u want everything working perfectly & smoothly go back to a GB Rom -- codename_ei8ht-----a super rom by a super dev:good:
Get codename eight by emann... on gb..
Else for ics.. try otu whatever u can... i prefer aokp only.. and spacious by shradul..
Rest.. well.. not meant for me atleast..
I use Paranoid Hybrid based on Cynogenmod 9 unofficial version. It's heck of a ROM to start with. You get Cyno feel along with ICS 4.0.4 and also toggle between Tablet UI and Phone UI. It's smooth, fast and gives what you want. You can also use variety of Themes available for Cynogenmod. Please use FXP Kernel.

Though I agree that the rom is excellent, I would stick to 20.1 until issues with the market, gallery, walkman etc is resolved. 20.1 just comes off as a more stable release and recommended for those who don't want to spend time configuring after install. Just my opinion..
A good tip might be to use titanium backup, which can also backup contacts and text messages. Since you often need to format when switching or updating roms.
Kernel & ROM Combo
I also have the Night Elf Kernel plus KA21.1 ICS ROM. No need to factory reset if unlocked and already running a previous version of KA. No issue what so ever on my SE Neo Mt15a

Hello
I tried searching the forum but couldn't find a similar thread..sorry if i overlooked.
I am confused if i should flash CM ROM's or not....i know they are good on performance and good for gaming....but the problem with my LwW is that the camera quality with a CM ROM is not good...also i read somewhere that the front camera isn't working.
Currently i am using REALICS...this ROM is very good but sometimes tha games lag
I used CM with my earlier phone(X8) and liked it immensely...but i am really confused about it in my current phone.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The thing about which i am confused is that should i flash CM or should i stay with my current ROM (REALICS)...i've seen that the camera quality is not good on the CM roms...moreover the front camera wont work on my LwW
but i really like the performance that the CM roms give
Hmmmm.....
CM7 ------ Gingerbread Base With A Few ICS stuff implement....
CM9 ------ ICS Base With A Few JB stuff implement....
CM10 ---- JB v4.1.2 Base....
CM10.1 - JB v4.2 Base....
So as for stability, CM7 and CM9 are the best....CM7, CM9 and CM10 got fully working front camera....

Thanks for Replying!
My friend is asking me to root his phone, and install a custom rom, so I was wondering what do you guys recommend to install on his phone? Which rom is the most stable and best for every day use? I just need stability over speed.

For now it's gingersony v06, you just need to flash a led fix ( only bug ) but the rest is fast and stable, it just has the problem that every rom has: getting stuck in the keyboard when scrolling maximum up/down on the sym/smiles, you just need to be gentle in that part.
The most syable roms will be Zencefil and Semc Debrand when the new version is released, zencefil may have more battery time of all and semc will be the most stable with that scrolling problem fixed.
If i helped press thanks .
AW: [Q] What's the most stable rom for the X10MP?
I agree to Crazy Seed, Gingersony is the best for the moment, but if you don't want to go through the pain of unlocking the bootloader and flashing a new kernel, I would recommend SonyStyle by BPaul, or, infact, GingerDX pro.
PS: Here is a list of most ROMs for X10 mini pro, you can go through the lists there, too, if you want:

I'm really sorry for the dumb question but could you post the link to gingersony v06 and is it even a rom for the x10 mini pro?

Well, that is a good question: I'm a 'wannabe' dev myself, so I made a rom based on slimroms, which is based on minicm10. I solved the problem of too little space on the data partition, but the performance is still not comparable to cm7 and the sound isn't very good. Everything is working, just a bit slower than on cm7. Do you maybe want to test the rom?

Wow, the first time I hear that project butter is slower then the 2.3.7 version Not really since it's not my phone. I own a Huawei G300 with CM10.1 on it and I can't believe that CM7 works better then CM10 on any device...

You know, the problem is the hardware of our phone: There´s to little internal space and to little RAM, so we can´t really use the, compared with cm7, heavyweight cm10 to its full extent, ask Crazy Seed if you don´t believe me, he tested the ROM for me .

I believe you, but damn, such a waste, you're missing out on a whole new experience. Anyway thanks for all the answers, I guess I'll install the CM7!
Yes it's true, cm7 is the best rom for the mini pro and cm10 is simply too much heavy for out phone, i honestly don't think there will ever be a 100% stable fast cm10 for this phone because the hardware can't take it. Kilroy's cm10 rom it's true that has more space, and it's still in constant testing for perfecting the rom, there's still a long way to go but in time there will be solutions. I don't know why so many people want JB roms instead of GB roms, i tested both and the only difference i saw was that the cm7 performance was way too much better, but it goes with the tastes and choices of people.
Ps: sorry kilroy but i have to disagree about the other roms you mentioned, sonystyle has many bugs and lags and gingerdx has a radio bug and effect rendering not automatic at boot, but xperia blaze 3 rom is good for stock kernel and has walkman player ( i just don't like the srs trumedia that they put in the rom, best to remove it ), or else you just have to go trough the pain of unlocking bootloader and stuff to get Gingersony v06 the best rom for now.
Ps: Kilroy about jb players, now that i mentioned walkman player, why don't you try that one? xD.
Minicm7. its fast, very stable and excellent for everyday use. battery life is good. i have not had any major problems with it. Its awesome!
as been said before in this post, and also my opinion, GingerSony is now the best rom around for x10mini pro
Hello,
I have used mostly stock roms on my Xperia U. GB, ICS. Got fed up with stock ICS being laggy & then shifted to GB V3 ROM (Custom rom based on GB) & yesterday I've installed Unofficial Stock JB ROM 4.1.2 V4.
Is there any ROM which is fast like GB & also looks beautiful like JB does? Pls suggest. I need a regular driver, can't change around ROMs & testing them cos I have only one mobile. I was actually very happy with GB Rocks V3 but then I Stumbled upon JB & now my mind doesn't want to go back to GB at all. JB's looks & features are very beautiful & elegant. But the rom is painfully slow, doesn't allow any type of multi tasking what so ever. It has to be bare minimum, even then basic features such as dialer pad, takes ages sometimes to open.
Pls suggest a ROM which has got looks & is worthy of being a daily driver.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers!
Try the lastest firmware 6.1.1.b.1.100:good: Its REALLY FAST with no lags and some improvements..

BTW..That is the JB 6.2.A.1.100 not the ICS 6.1.1.B.1.100 one
I think the choice of a ROM is like color preferences, anyone will say their is better, but you still like blue/red/green/yellow/magenta/cyan/WTF
So, here is my opinion:
I usually change a little of ROMs, been using thru a couple of weeks GB-ROCKS (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2139840) when I had locked bl. Then, like some, I really preffer the looks of ICS or JB. Tried some and stuck for some weeks with Terra v5 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2141726) - It's ICS, fast, stable, fast gps lock, no 3g issues of any kind, but its camera was a little laggy, I didn't like much.
Unlocked my bl and tried some other ROMs for a bit.
Now, i'm using CM9 by FXP, ver 216. It's quite fast, but I think the batteries doesn't last so long as Terra. Anyway, it's a good ROM and under development yet.
I'm always eager to try any other ROMs, but for now I'm sticking with CM9. Also, if you want a good looking ROM, you should try Ligux (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2055679&highlight=ligux). It's CM9 based, but with some tweaks that make it a little prettier. But I don't think it's as developed as CM9 anyway.
Thanks guys.
I have found my daily driver. It's CM9, no word for it. It's awesome.
Cheers!!!
So are we thinking cm9 is better than gb rocks? If so... Why?
