Ok, well, there is no telling what the BEST software is, just read through the forums, alot of people offer there own versions of the updates, and decide which on is safest for you to update with and stuff...

haha Okay. Is there anything you could suggest? like WM6 or something that is pretty bug free? i dont really understand the kitchen thing and i dont know how to cook my own...
Hmn.. this is the one that I use... Crossbow Reloaded v1.5 .. check it out here.
I like it, see if its compatible with your device first as you should always do.
sweet!!!! it worked! thanks!
No problem, glad I could help.
When i make a ROM following all the step, including watching the videos, and reading the readme, when i get to the final step and flash the rom, it doesnt boot, just gets stuck at the first splash screen with the R D etc..anything obvious i might be doing wrong?
As in like cook a ROM? If so, wrong section to post this thread in.

There can be thousand causes. But I think this question should be in rom development or in other more appropriate thread. There will be a higher chance that some cheff will give u some advice. Unfortunately my mom didnt learn me how to cook so I am no help for u.
Did you make sure you have every little driver, dll, etc.. It is so hard to tell what the problem is. Like Mikulec said, it could be a thousand causes and it could take forever to find the cause. Should ask a pro chef like dutty or l26 and they may be able to help you.
I am browsing this forum all morning, now is 3 P.M.
I tried to install one from "shogunr125" that has everything including touch flo but id doesn't work, I hope to hear from him to explain why it doesn't work. If not, can someone give me a link to some other version of Win 6.5 pleeeeaseee... And instructions ofcorse
Thanx a lot.

Excuse me, am I blind. How much WM6.5 Roms are you seen here in this Xperia Tread. Do you have a X1 ?
Sounds like someone who does not apply hardSPL to his X1 before trying to flash a cooked rom...
"it doesn't work"

Come on guys, a new user ....... let's try to give him a hand:
1. READ the fist xperia thread.
2. READ the second xperia thread.
3. etc etc
Basicaly: install hard spl (hard spl is the pretection against flashing these roms)
Find a rom that you like (most of them have few screenshots in the thread) and flash.
Enjoy. Or flash the next one.
Simple i guess ........ but remember ..... READ the threads. Will give you all the ideas you need.
G.
Wheal I have read them... but don't get it really, and yes, I have X1 for a long time... Since it is out there and wanted to update it. I tried to install from that guy as I said but it doesn't go...
I know You probably don't wanna spend your time helping me "noob" but please, how can I do it? I read everything but there is just so many things to do that I get lost... If any possibility that someono wants to help me out and put on my X1 I would like that very much.
The post just above yours details the procedure, and if you look at the stickies, the apps you need are there.
1) Install HardSPL
2) Flash ROM
3) Steal underpants
4) ???
5) Profit!

NO.
I can't find it. I searched for that "hardspl" and can't find it.
OK. I'd like to be tolerant and helpful but are you that stupid? WTF there are tonnes of stickies at the top of this forum. Here is the direct link to the HardSPL thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=431218
Read it, understand it and come back if it still doesn't work AFTER YOU HAVE READ IT.
There's even a video on youtube of the whole process somewhere.
Damn, so many threads lately of people asking to be spoonfed information that's CLEARLY AVAILABLE. Stop being lazy.

Ok, I'm sorry that it seems this way, but I really have read lots of things, I'm not stupid or lazy, I really read loads of posts but didn't find this one.
Ok, later I'll try. So basically what I need to do is run 1st this "X1_HardSPL_v1.zip" content and than after that is finished I have to run for example "WM65_ROM_X1i_23060_SB12_Sonblack" rom and that is it.
I'm asking so much questions so that I don't do harm to my device.
Thanx.
If you don`t understand the post from Hard-SPL and flashing roms, plz. let it be. You crash your famous X1. Stand by your WM6 original SE X1 Rom.

Yes you're right. You have to install the hard-spl first and after that you can flash an custom rom to your phone.

Thanx, I'll try that. And I'll put here an outcome.
I think I get it now.
I just want a ROM that is:
1. Unintsallable
2. Fast, stable and glitch-free.
3. Panel install only
4. Should only require soft-reset
5. should look exactly like HTC's interface
6. Landscape mode preferred.
As you may have guessed, im a noob. But I just wanted to know as there is like a sea of ROMs and it becomes very difficult for a person not very knowledgable like me to pick one. I just want 2 things most importantly, that it shud be panel-installable and shud support landscape mode, along wiht being stable.
Thanx a ton guys!!
I don't understand your 1st and 3rd point. All roms can be replaced.
I personally dislike having Touchflo as is a bit unstable for me. If you want 6.5 I've used this for weeks, the barebones version, link and its been pretty stable on me.
Read other threads asking about rom choices too, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=590874
sweet..by
1. i meant it can be uninstalled if it gives some problem...(i raed sumwhere its a pain to remove it from ur system)
and
3. by that i meant, that it is only installed in a panel, not in the whole sys..as in i dont want the OS to change, i want X1 OS but only one panel can be HTC's touch flo

Use a stock ROM or cook your own.
3. Panel install only
4. Should only require soft-reset
5. should look exactly like HTC's interface
Get an HTC phone then.
6. Landscape mode preferred.

Read what I typed above in red.
tahnx Im Packing...
though i get your humour(and frustration with the number of noob questions being asked everyday)
but plz understand, I am an original noob. I dont understand wht u mean by "cook your ROM"
also, the very fact i have posted this Question, is that there are so many ROMs.
Like see, there are many ways to run a Mac on ure PC (iAtkos, Kalyway etc) but I used Kalyway..so here i cant find my Kalyway...
is ITJE's ROM good??heard about it...
plz suggest specific ROM so that i dont have to do a lot of RND with my (brand new) phone...thanx a lot once again.
Here is my suggestion for you. Just try a rom for one week and see which one fit you the best. It's very easy ans SAFE to install new rom and every rom has it plus and minus. I personally install different rom every other date because i want to have the newest stuff for my phone.
I think you misunderstand what ROMs are. I think you should read the Wiki first. Then read the stickies. Then if you have questions try searching first, and then you should fire away with questions.
The questions you are posing now are not ROM related they are software related. If you really want to flash a ROM then you should first read what a ROM (Read-Only Memory) is and why you would want to flash one and what HARD-SPL is and how to prevent bricking. If you are not ready for a custom ROM then perhaps you should just stick to some of the many cabs that are available here.
Hopefully this will give you a starting place. Just opening a thread to ask nonsensical things is not going to be productive for you, and will only confuse or irritate more experienced members. If you have a basic understanding everything should fall into place after that. Good luck.
Thanx Hannigan174..i appreciate ure help and apologize for posting this Question. u are right, i actually dont understand what ROMs are in trems of X1....
But i wil take ur suggestion...i wil first try out diff ROMs and then post a query...
I understand what you want: a theme or a application not flash your phone with another ROM, is it?
Try check this out... and this ... also try this
Also you may check this one and this
Good luck
i wil save all u guys some trouble:

what you see is the Manila user-interface, can be any ROM currently had it cooked unless stated differently. And it can be of 2.1 or 2.5 (Leo), and installable under pure or clean rom.
Just read the stickies first under the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 ROM development thread. First step, you're going to need to flash HardSPL, then flash any ROM you like with the Manila interface.
This/URL] is one of the example, always read last pages to see the current issues on the latest build, then pick your choice
thanx a lot deep throat...i wil try out different ROMs and see which is the best. Also, i just got my X1 and it has 9 movies..but i can unlock only 1....can i be a little greedy and unlock atleast 2[my GF wants to see Zohan and I want to see Da Vinci...u know how GFs are...]

I dont really get it... what did you mean by unlocking ? and what 9 movies?
my micro SD card has 9 movies...MIB, da cinchi code..etc... can unlock it..i have a Sony Pictures app also..it lets me see the trailer of each film and then i can unlock the whole film..and watch it
the more i read, the more im gettin confused...there is this software on one hand cutsomRUU...
then there is a cab availbale, then there is also the hardUSPL or something...
this is just getting more complicated, im eading the sticky threads but to no avail....can any1 plz help me how to get whats in the video..step by step with links...plz, its a humble request...
everything is explained in this sticky thread. just follow the steps. do a backup of your important data before u start
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=446070
but i really think u have no clue what u are facing by flashing ure device. every data on youre phone (not those on youre storage card) will be lost and all the programms u installed will be gone so u have to reinstall them after flash. by flashing ure device u will completely remove everything thats on ure phone and relace it with the new rom. did u ever updated youre device via seus?
the sony pictures app will be gone also and then u probably will not be able to watch your movies u have on youre card. unless u have this as a cab somewhere.
I've always recommended SPB Warehouse Backup. I made a thread, though nobody commented on it...but IMHO, and I gtrab and Siruis [X] are now using them, it's the best backup/restore program out there. It allows you to restore all your PIM and programs after flashing your phone.
The trial allows you to use it for 5 times before having to purchase a license. It's well worth it as custom ROMs are coming out every couple days or so, it saves time, effort, and the frustration of having to constantly restore your phone manually.
Well i´ve got a problem.
I´ve got a Magic 32B (i think its better in the G1´s forum) and it freezes randomly, since i´ve rooted it.
I´ve tried several roms, but the problem is still there.
I´ve tried some sd cards, but it still freezes.
I´ve updated the Radio and the spl (Radio : 2_22_19_26I & Death SPL)
well. i dont know what to do now. it freezes, the display´s still on, but its.. frozen. then half a minute later, it reboots. but its not a kernel panic. it reboots completely.
please help
There's only one thing to do in a situation like this.......
.........get a Dream (G1)!
thank you -. - i really dont need answers like this one.
Also, this is in the WRONG section, this isn't DEVELOPMENT its a Q and A so put it in the QandA section
reformat your sd card(fat32) re partition it , the wipe EVERYTHING YOU CAN ON YOUR PHONE, and flash a STABLE ROM. LIKE SUPERD OR CYANOGENS ROM.

I'm not sure where your problems can stem from.
That being said, I try some of the suggestions stated above, ie.,
1. Complete wipe
2. Repartiton SDcard
3. Maybe even invest in a new battery (you never know)
4. Those are the things I would've tried. Those same things can pretty much eliminate most problems.
5. If all else fails.........get a Dream (G1)
Or you could pray to the Cell Phone Gods...........
Seriously, I know I haven't been much help, but the suggestions I put forth is what I'd do.
Don't forget to pray!

Communities police themselves and don't need no STEENKIN' badges to do that. If you don't have an ARM compiler or the Android SDK on your computer you are not a developer and have no business creating new topics in this subforum.

You don't have to be a mod to know who is the intended audience for a forum section. If you expect free technical support the very least you can do is to help out the people doing it by filing your request appropriately and doing your own damn leg work.

Junior member wannabe fail?
Anyway, the main thing is is that if your phone is relying on your SD card like for Apps2SD you could run into some problems with a badly formatted card. Would you be able to post a logcat of one of these crashes? It would help a lot in trying to find and identify the problem and then fix it.

This sounds more likely to be a hardware issue, I've heard of many cases of it on the forums every month or so.
but why should it be a hardware issue? i mean, before i rooted it, it worked perfect. but now..

Yes, some people had the exact same hardware problem as you. You can try to un-root and root again but the problem may still be persist.
okay, thank you. i´ll try it tomorrow, then I tell you if it worked
Hey wazup man well i see what u talking about but i also have a MT3G (32B) and i had no problems with it. Its just depends of the rom you put on it cuz not all roms are stable some are beta or still working on the rom. So what you need do is find roms that are stable. Try find a rom in here go to the search Tap>and put this SuperCSDIX10 im using right now that rom and its FAST so hopwe it helps out
