Ok, basically a long story cut short. My Xperia Neo is a bit of a mess. I upgraded to ICS but the phone lagged lots and just runs far too slow. I tried downgrading to Gingerbread but I have some weird version with chinese symbols etc. I'm one of these idiot newbs who thought they knew what they were doing but clearly don't.
I tried searching but got confused by all the different roms and kernals available. I was just wondering if someone could let me know what is the best Rom and Kernal for my phone is keep it running sweet.
Thanks lots in advance.

It depends on ur usage All roms on development thread r good
each rom has unique features and styles So depends on ur use
If you don't want any trouble, use any stock based rom.
Im currently checking these out..
JellySandwich http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1880321
IceCream Pureness http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1737862
both seem good but cant decide which one i want
I'm on JellySandwich with Nightelf Kernel and it's just awesome.
Jellysandwich , Ice Cream Sandwich Pureness
I had both , and both of them on Night Elf Kernel.
I found ICSP very laggy (until I Flashed the JB Adreno Drivers) which made it smoother but is a pretty neat ROM overall (only thing is that I Don't Like those square icons) ,
JS is VERY smooth, with all those JB Adreno and Tegra 3 Scripts , It's really good , BUT the Aroma Installer is a bit confusing , so I've Installed and Reinstalled the ROM quite a very large number of times which made it quite buggering just like rite now, I'm using it (the last update 6.2.5) aaaand I don't have Gtalk , which I selected on the Aroma Installer, but I DONT have it , and I have XDA apk, which I Didn't selected!, and just a few things like that...
Which I Don't like about them both is that I Can't use the Music Info Download in either of them. which is pretty lame.
another Good option is the X-Gamer ROM which I liked a lot, the only thing it lacks is the ICS UI but it's a pretty good ROM.
Overall good gaming performance, and VERY stable.
battery Life was good too. but as I said is a GB ROM so ICS UI is just NOT there...
and about those Chinese things its just because You flashed and CN tft (it's like the official ROM but...for China)
you have to flash the Global .tft (search for it on google , like ... "Official Gingerbread Global Xperia Neo .tft " or something like that )
should arytgma
I'm right now on Ice Cream Pureness 13 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1738055 and The Alliance kernel 1.5 by Night-Elf http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1566871 and it seems pretty good to me :good:
Try by yourseft
All of custom rom in this forum is very good.
recommended: use GB for NEO/NEOV if you want stable, fast, good battery. Try T0x1c V8 or codename 9.1 rom.

hi
what is the best miui room for xperia x10 2.3.3
can i update from prime miui 1.1.18 to newer miui room
thanks
I have had the best luck with Cobrato's MIUI.. and DoomKernal non overclocked, I have run quite a few MIUI's before and usually they slow down after i get it settled the way I like it, this one has not and I have been running it for quite a while.. Here's the link check it out
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1307044
I've been on Crowns MIUI rom (switched from Wolfs rom) for about over a month now and I really like it. Its smooth and the battery use is very very good. He also has OTA updates so its much easier getting new versions.

Hey guys...
I know it may seem a bit strange to post here since i own an HTC DS
but i am an old X10 user until i've lost it 1,5 year ago..
Anyway, i have this friend of mine who would like to have his phone
Rooted and run a new ROM on it.
Since i have much more experience in flashing and programming he
asked me to do it for him.
So you will be asking now, where is the problem in all these?
It has been a long time since i've changed phone and the rooting method
has changed i guess...
Can someone provide me an easy way to get rooted since it is NOT my phone
and i dont want to get in trouble?
PS. I've checked most of the roms in the forums, since i cant test them and etc,
Can someone tell wich is the most stable XperiaS looking ROM for x10 ?
Root using Flashtool, then install any ROM you like, i'd suggest you use Cobrato's MiUI or DonutHD or FeraLab, these three are the most stable in my own experience, i only installed these for quite a while, other members may help you with their opinions on other roms
good luck!
Most stable rom as used before is Oodie X prime MiUI, kernel based on developer (ooDie kernel) So its stable, smooth and fastest without any problem. Then i switch to Feralab V20 and using now stable , smooth without any FC. Use ThKernel 029 or ThKernal v12-4, both is very good for Feralab v20 ROM.
U should try
ahhh thank you guys but im looking for an XperiaS-themed ROM
is there any stable one? i've seen some in the development forum but,
i cant test them xD
I would undoubtly say DiXperia, I have used for quite a while, it has the Xperia S look and feel, it's stable, fast, a great one! you can't find it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1557455

hmmm thank you mate, i still have some days to decide what i will be flashing on his x10, ahhh i miss my x10i,
even if DesireS is pretty amazing even after a year of having it
Fera V20 with ThKernel 12-4... perfect!!!
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.
Hi guys, I have some experience on xperia mini because it is my gf's phone and sometimes she leaves it to me so that I just flash something.
I remember when it was on gb: really smooth and fast, gameplay was awesome too, in stock rom and in modded rom.
Now it is on ics and it seems to be more laggy, battery sucker and with less stability. It is on stock rom with crossbreeder and lupus kernel, I've found this as the best ics combination for better stability but I remember gb was one other thing.
I haven't tried jb yet but, onestly, I'm not so convinced.
My questions are: which android version have you preferred? And why? Have you experienced my same sensations?

Im also having a Xperia Mini™ and received per-installed ICS..Stock OS is ok to me but limited features.Main problem is battery life.So I moved to a custom rom and then I start the flashing war .
I tried lot of custom rom's with varies kernels. I found some good custom rom's which can play HD games smoothly and with more features.So I think custom Rom's are good but still there are some bugs because those rom developers not from SE software team...
Btw,I think ICS is better than GB..Support applications,more features..etc
OP really the only way of knowing is to test/flash for yourself, better yet read thru the forums Development section. If you are allowed to test on the device...
There are to many variables involved in asking others what they prefer....usage/apps so on. Thanks
hello guys , i am gonna talk about the arc s and what is the best rom for arc s i will not put any links if u want the link of any rom i will talk about just reply what rom do u want
of course i cant say what the best rom is because it depends on your using of the phone but if u like gaming and performance u better downgrade to gingerbread 2.3.7 and install gb rom its faster in games gives u the dual core experience such as :
atomic gb i personally tried this rom it is great but what is bad about it that there is alot of applications requires 4.x + android so in that case try cm9 ics its not bad.( better than cm10 )
if u like multitasking there are a lot of good roms for u cm isnt one of them ..... xperia ultimate hd is good in multitasking and giving u advanced settings , its not good in gaming though
jelly bean roms for arc s are not fast and smooth like ultimate hd and i think its because the arc s is only one core and cant handle the jelly bean since there is no official update i tried racing bean it is not that good and lighting cm .. alot of bugs , and u have to flash a diffrent kernel.
another problem is battery life it isnt good in any of these roms, except for atomic gb and the stock rom ofcourse i dont know why but maybe the overclocked kernel may cause it.
i wrote this thread by my personal experience i tried all these roms and more and these information i dont know just by reading threads , its like a year of experiencing and trying to make my arc s better .
if i helped please press the like button
if u have any question ill be happy to answer them

CM10.2 (Android 4.3) is running pretty good. I gave my Arc S to my Brother and he says that it is running fine.
Btw. I dont want to be rude, but please use more "." and ",", its very challenging to read your Post if anything is in one sentence
But 4.3 is running good, for Camera usage i recommend to download the Playstore App "Camera ICS", that should do that.
(If it isnt already fixed somehow.)
Cheers, ShockBuddy
i tried 4.2 cm on my arc s , it wasnt that good comparing to cm9 4.0
i tried alot of rom and cant find the best one there has to be something in every rom a bug or something
but i see videos of arc s running custom roms and running smoothly and lag free so i am looking for the best
Thank you
