Welcome to SLIM ROMS+ for X8
Feel the performance and speed!
The Slim Roms+ for X10 Mini was inspired by tchaari and A_U, so I made it for X8, too.
This was first made for X10 Mini and made it for X8 by sgt.meow's request
The same kind of project is already in progress in Galaxy Mini, Galaxy Ace, X8 etc...
TO BE SURE, I simply removed useless apps, fonts, ringtones that bloat our device. Anyway you can simply download their duplicates from Play Store.
This will save a lot of space in the system, ultimately improving the performance upto some extent.
Try it and you will see
Keep up the latest news and information of my ROMs at my
OFFICIAL WEBSITE
What makes Slim Roms+ good? Let's find it out![/B]
Features
1. Our phone has very less RAM to run ICS or JB in fully optimised manner. So these ROM's slightly fulfil that requirement. As the apps in these ROM's occupy very less RAM of around, 20 to 30 MB only !
2. Due to less RAM consumption, phone tends to be more responsive, smooth and faster !
3. Overall performance increases roughly around, 5 times !
4. If you are a benchmark believer, then AnTuTu scores were also slightly higher compared to the original ROM's
5. These lite ROM's along with any script like Adrenaline Engine, can boost your performance slightly higher.
6. These ROM's can be used as a daily driver, thanks to nAa and all of his team members!!
7. Slim ROM's have slightly higher battery backup compared to the original ROM's. For me atleast, i.e; with minimal usage the phone lasts around =TESTING
8. So use these ROM's and decide what is best for you.
9. There's nothing great about these ROM's. BUT, their SIZE speaks for them !
OLD VALUE FOR CM10: 131MB
NOW IT IS: 83MB
10. Going into details, I simply removed useless apps, fonts, ringtones that bloat our device. Anyway you can simply download their duplicates from Play Store. This will save a lot of space in the system, ultimately improving the performance upto some extent
11. All the rightful credits are in the second page.
12. All the downloads and download instructions are in the bottom.
13. I have removed bloatware in to the maximum extent possible, but still if you feel there exists such an app which is useless, inform me, I will remove it
14. Finally, I ensure there was no warez used to create these ROM's
15. On a side note I removed all the boot-animations to conserve space. ICS & JB have their own in-built boot-splash. While in CM7 there is no such facility, the screen will be blank, so don't worry you did not brick your phone
16. I AM OPEN FOR YOUR SUGGESTIONS!

3. CWM Recovery

Wtf u have permissions for slim all rom? (Like Miui)

Its up to the developers, they can give permissions or they can keep their work to themselves with no further modifications... once they have have published it to public, its understood that its free to use and customize it anyway, unless they specially mention it in big bold letters sayin "i will not allow anyone tamper my work".
So I AM NOT STEALING ANYONE'S BLOODY DAMN ROM. This is open-source world, u need to be careful with words.
and my idea is not to make only calls and sms.... some of u got it totally wrong.
u can install the applications that i removed from ROM's from play store... what's the point in slowing down the phone [though lag is insignificant], which already has such less ram.. ?if we had at least 512 Mb RAM, I wouldn't care to touch any ROM, least "slim" it...
So u can install the apps that i deleted, in the partition or sd card or whatever.... this saves a lot of space in system, which MAY help the heavy application/game run slightly smoother bcoz of availability of memory..
HOPE MY POINT IS CLEAR..

Short review:
This ROM does its name proud; it is super light and comes with very few apps installed. On the other hand this could pose a problem for people who need a thousand apps for this and that. Solution? Simple. Download the necessary apps. It's quite fast and if you're a benchmark-guy, I got 3881 on my kernel with no tweaks other than the CPU float point fix, which, unfortunately doesn't come with the ROM. I cannot really comment on battery life as my phone's been plugged in for the whole evening. The lack of a File Manager does make it difficult for people to install apps instantly, but ADB does the trick neatly.
All in all, if you're looking for performance and features, this is the ROM for you.

Just flashed it, Very good JB rom, fast, stable, smooth... Thanks

Can we have some screenshots?

---

What kernel would you recommend? I know they both work but are there any improvements or downfalls between the kernels?
