**Just a little something to consider , we have a small device clocked only at 600MHz any firmware after GB is really pushing it. I recommend that you use nAa's GB rom with his kernel. Best performance and long lasting battery life. But thats just me.
I will add the new roms that came out recently soon.
For noobs:
Root - Rooting you phone means (in simple terms) you own all functionality of you phone, you gain administration rights on you phone.
Custom Rom - These are tweaked/modified roms which are most likely add more functionality e.g. better apps, faster UI etc.
xRecovery/CWM - Allows you to install custom roms and do many other things.
Kernel - Enables communication between software and hardware. Look at it this way if you are able to understand someone better than another person you will be able to do what is asked, it is the same with the kernel(To understand why to have a custom kernel).
To install custom rom:
1)Download a custom rom and place in sd card.
2)Root phone.
3)Install recovery.
4)Reboot phone and tap the back button to enter recovery.

Hello, Bashy
Today is a my holiday, so I tried StornMix V2 with each stock kernel & ZombiePanic kernel already.
It's almost faster and smooth and works well for me without any big problems.
+ When install with ZombiePanic v1.63, little bit difficult. So I tried few times with each different patterns.
But, I'm sorry... I forgot which way to got a success
However, I got a feeling like instability at just only sometime, but I really can't identify the where it came from...
And I think, may have little problem to visual of character by the background of the theme .
So maybe the theme change to little more simple to be much better.
Anyways, I think StornMix V2 is wonderful rom and I can see the good future of this rom.
I think if you want got a more good thoughts, should be wait to next version.
I had sense of anticipation to this rom
Bashy'
thanks for adding my rom to this page.

It is a good idea to make a thread in Mini Pro Development.....
But before you do it I recommend you add a Tutorial like How to Install custom ROMs....What are the benefits.....How to Root....(Something like where to START form exactly...and what a noob need.....) would be nice....
I'm saying this from my personal experience....It wasn't that easy for me when I bought my mimmi......

Nice to See Kernel Devs
Good news mate! Sounds promising, looking forward to it
Ahah so fu*king perfect, look at my thread ( sango vizion rom ) I've reput the old but perfect kernel ninphetamine, if you make some update that's would be perfect .
i will look this thread ninphetamine was my favorite khernel for a long time
bgn9000 said:
I am not Hacre
But I like its kernel and I like also Gokhanmoral's kernel.
I like also learning and competition.
So, I propose to revive Hacre's kernel with some Siyah enhancements.
This kernel will be compatible to AOSP ROM and with tools like Voltage control.
I added from 2.1.3 Ninphetamine's version (2.6.35.11 based).
I would like to propose few governors (conservative is my favorite) and many frequences (100-200-350-500-648-800-1000-1200-1400-1600) with the possibility to change them through /data/customboot script (or all others into /etc/init.d/).
I hope to bring my best as I did into my modem thread

Here it is
Pay attention : 2.2.0 is compatible only for 2.3.x (x = from 3 to 6) and samsung based ROM
On AOSP, no reboot but CWM is working fine to rollback.
Pay attention2 : only test on my I9100
i will try it soon

Many thanks for this support
I added all payload (mainly Superuser.apk, "su" and CWMManager.apk) into the zImage.

By the way, by default, this release is booting in Ondemand (100-1000) and I advise to change to Conservative. I will release a script soon
bgn9000,
Do you think you can follow Gokhanmoral's lead and release an i777 (at&t version) compatible version of this kernel? I like trying different kernels (currently on Siyah 2.6.12), but our i777 model doesn't get much love (we only have Enropy's and Gokhanmoral's). Please consider making an i777 version and good luck with the project!
i just install it very smooth no problem all works fine no just test the battery life i will give my return in a few day
Good job mate!
Hope we will solve the aosp boot soon
Good luck, seems promising. Voodoo Louder support?
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

Aire's Kernel V2: http://www.mediafire.com/?jy55rfrth4caj7y

:good::good:
Thanks for your porting!
I'm downloading it though, is there any working/not working feature list?
---- Comment of 10 minutes of testing ----
Everything looks fine, because it seems built from SEMC ICS (it needs stock-based ICS kernel.)
USB storage mode works, and so does charging mode. (Some of SEMC ICS MIUI have USB storage problem.)
It's quite smooth and stable for daily use. I didn't test theme features.
For missed calls, notification works well.
One thing: Even I'm using MIUI in English, I see some French words in this rom. (ex. "En charge" on lock screen when it's being charged.)
Which languages have can you write plz? Hope it has tm Turkish

3. It already has 3D performance
4. I never faced such touch issue.. Try Siyah u might get better.
5. ROM?? U already on RR rite?? U meant kernel flashable thru CWM??
