Best Custom ROM - XPERIA X1 ROM Development

I've been on here a while now, and still confused as to which ROM to go for.
I've tried itje's and smaberg's ROMs as I like the HTC layouts but what else is out there???
I really want speed and decent battery life, with the perks of the clock and weather programs on the ROMs I've used!!
Thanks

Customized ROMs with popular themes !

Have been through several threads on ROMs and found people more interested in tweaking the appearance of their WM6.5 2.1 or 2.5 Manila on HD. My suggestion would be to integrate these popular themes like Dusk and others into the cooked ROMs from genius like Throy, Miri etc...Preinstalled with HDWALL set to Wallpapercabs folder with different cabs or wallpapers to choose. Users will have more freedom to go to today settings and select themes they want..
Is their any integrity issue that I am not aware off? if not then why not these ROMs are pre-customized with all these themes and wallpapers...Any insight on this is really appreciated !

I love my themes and I have all components of the Dusk theme installed, but everyone is different and some users prefer a super lite version with almost nothing installed so that the phone is super quick. All these themes (to offer enough variety) would take up space and to many would slow down the speed of the phone. Whilst the themes are nice eye candy they are nothing more than just that and if one has no high powered requirements of the phone they are great, but not all users feel that way.
So basically your asking for chefs to do all the hard work for you. The fun in having a wm device is so each person can customize his/her phone to their own tastes. Everyone has their own opinions on what is good and what isn't. For a chef to create a rom with lots of different options would be more time consuming for them meaning less time fixes issues and creating better roms.
This just isn't practical and for these reasons I am closing this thread

i want my baby back!! 6.1 roms recommendation.

hi... it seems that 6.1 has been forgotten. Im not a big fan of the eye candy of 6.5, its laggy and after a while... irritating. So i would like to know (if you could provide the links aswell; in xda ofcoz) of the fastest 6.1 rom, with manila preferably. The only main difference i see in 6.5 is the main menu, which makes win mo like every other phone out there. i kinda liked the win mo drop down screen. more authentic and not a rip-off of a knock-off of a carbon copy of a photo copy of all other menus found on all other phones out there.
so just post here which is the best, thanx buddies.
P.S.
why hasn't any one tried to integrate the manila touch flo 3d/ HTC sense from leo onto a more stable base like 6.1? im not a "chef" and i dunno much abt the process of creating roms... im a flasher... (ok that didnt come our right) lol... back to topic... shouldnt it be possible?
if you ported leo sense onto 6.1, it would work faster ...yes?
You tried the rest, now try the best... PCTech4U
Personally I have tried just about every rom on this forum, and the one that I like most is Touch X 10.1 by Mr Rusch.
PCTech4U was okay, and probably a second place in my book but I think Touch x 10.1 beats it.
Super stable, quite fast, excellent battery life.
What more can u ask for?
Until 6.5 ROMs are completely stable and smooth I am also sticking with Touch X
Touch X 10.1? does 10.1 beat 10.8? or are they completely different series all
together?
and trying tech4u also... will c which one comes out on top...
my my... the touch X 10.8 is amazing. fast and stable. pure amazement. will try the rest to find the best...
I use TouchX 10.5... tried every 6.5 rom but they are SLOW..., tried 10.8, 10.1 others... they are fast, but I like 10.5 (I think that it is a bit stable then others)
:/ I use xperia specially as Phone
Touch X 10.1 is totally stable and tested by many people, 10.5 is very stable so far, I haven't found any problems (need the fixer cabs installed, though). It has manila 2.1 with weather on the home tab.
I read that someone was working on a WM6.1 / Leo ROM, but can't remember offhand who it was.. possibly rotastrain, MrRusch or bsp98ht..
thankss ppl... so it seems touch x is the best so far... may it be 10.8, 10.5 or 10.1. im not a big fan of the finger menus though... is there a way to turn it off? ususally they have the option to turn off the menu but i cant find it after looking everywhere.... any ideas?
as said before, touch-x and pctech4u are great
for info though, these three are of note;
outie's rom- LEO
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=564743
mikedomain's rom- LEO, based on outie's kitchen
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4672004
itje's rom- manilla 2.1
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=575329
the three above unfortunately haven't had much support in terms of bug-fixing or development. it's a shame as for those who aren't fans of 6.5 are missing out on leo. odd, because LEO is so much better on 6.1!!
also, haven't tried it (waiting for LEO) but here is a link to jack's:

Try this got it of touch it 10.1 and works for me.
I had forgotten about outie's kitchen and rom! Thank msc125 for reminding me.. Trying to cook something with it now hoping to get a fast 6.1 with 2.1.1920 out at the end.
thanks n33d for speed. we all need the speed. i have found that touch X 10.8 is more buggy than the 10.5 so im stickin to that... and now with the cab u provided... should be nothing less than perfect!
one thing id like is the xperiatweak 2.0 software so i can change the font on my x1... but i cant seem to open the webpage... possible if some one else could post it here?
and another question, do these custom roms reduce the sensitivity of the track pad...? even when i set the sensitivity to the max it doesnt give more sensitivity like it used to... and in the advance config the values are different for different "scenes", ranging from 8 - 20... any idea abt this?
p.s one thing i realised is that the touch x 10.5 doesnt isnt that stable with the manila TF3D turned off? i guess i have to change the key mapping for the home screen...
GO WM6.1!
another request... is there a cab for the htc apps in these custom roms? like htc album, camera, mp3 cutter etc? and also the new notification bar in all these new roms?

The fastest and stablest ROM for X1 ? ? ?

Hey Guys,
i got the X1...and i am searching for a new ROM...so what is the fastest and stablest ROM for X1? Only cutback, i like to use Touch flow 3D on this ROM?
Can you help me? What do you think?
Greetz

Well..
From my experience the best one would be the Touch X 10.1 Ultimate, thats the fastest and more stable rom (wm 6.1, great battery life, stock touchflo3d look in the green version).
Its really a rom for the everyday use just install a cab for a soft keyboard and youre done.
Second best is the Touch It 16 with wm 6.1 but this has some glitches on menus and the scrolling and the battery is ok.
Touch X 10.5 is stable and fast and includes the weather clock on the home tab if you are looking for something with a little more flash as well as speed
I tried a lot of ROMS and always went back to Touch X 10.1
Battery OK, battery Not OK!!!!!

Thanks amigo for your advice, but how about battery consumption with 3G on all the time, using wifi frequently, playing some games some time??is it battery friendly? is it causing battery back over heating?..
Lastly how can i get the last Manila slider icons(specially i like Transparent slider). searched around couldn't find what i have been looking for.
Thanks amigo
i would suggest touch x 10.8 with a few cab tweaks to increase performance and size of text on screen. 10.1 and 10.5 also work great but i prefer 10.8 cuz of the updated manila.
replay
Ok, i think i try the Touch X 10.1 ULTIMATE...its my first time with the X1 I want to do it like this Video Tutorial:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=497511
Is this the right way?
Greetz
Jonas
try wildchild's Aus lite rom, its stable, fast, no bug
Just see the real answers. Which means there isn't one of that goody goody thing you are looking for. Try out yourself & may be you have better answer than some of these. Good Luck.
So i already tried the Touch 10.1 and its really awesome ! ! ! Much faster than the Original^^
Only thing i miss is a Germankeyboard...some symbols are different...does somebody have an idea?
But all in all i am really glad...
Thank you guys

I use now Blackstone 2.4 and i think this ROM is best rom what i ever used because i dont see any broblems, eveything working fine
I looked for Touch X 10.1 and couldn`t find it , so I flashed Touch X 10.5. Is 10.1 much better then 10.5 , if so can u pls post link here for 10.1.
Thanks

I hope touch x is the fastest one But i dont know it was my first flash on the x1...it really fast...but i find a really big bug...i cant call people out of my contacts...i can tip the number in the dialer...but not just with a click onto a contact icon... I will ask Sma...maybe its my fault

I've downloaded alot of roms off this website since I first got my X1 .....
Some i haven't tested which were mentioned in this post like touch x but i've found that
Valkyrie_v3.8 FireStorm
Was very smooth ... very fast ..the layout was user friendly it worked great for me overall the only problems I had was when I played around with the settings I wasn't familiar with I kept getting gpsr messages it was annoying so I re flashed then I could send texts but receiving i could I doubt that it was because of the flash but when i first flashed it this was the best i was extremely amazed at the smoothness

Request to the Cookers (ROM)

Hello guys i just wana say something, and maybe some of the cookers who think the same way can cook something like this.
Here is full with many new ROM`s for our Blackstones but mostly they are with Manila 2.5 Sense and they are very very heavy ROM`s and not Run like it must to be on our device.. for that reason i use only ROM`s with 2.1 Sense because of the speed but even 2.1 Sense cant beat the speed and feel of TF3D 2.1.XXX so i know there is avalible ROM like this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=592632
from Topix but its Old Build, my question is can anyone cook a clean 6.5 Build for example some of the latest build from COM 2 21903 and to cook in the latest TF3D 2.1.XXX not sense anymore.
By clean i mean all files that the useless or all aplications that can be installed via cab to be removed from the ROM. Because some of the apps get updates all the time so you just can uninstall and install the new one via cab.. this can heppand only if the apps are not cooked in the ROM.
So for what im talking is a Super Fast ROM for everyday use, and on the same time good battery consumation, also everyone know how fast can be the old TF3D also i cant imagine a copressed TF3D with some other tweaks what will heppand... and how fast and sensitive will be.
Often we forgot that the main function of our devices is a Phone so often when there are heavy ROM`s the dialer is slow.. when someone calling you the respond is slow and things like this, what we really need is a Fast Device and fast Dialer fast response time when someone calling you to not have a delay and things like this.
If anyone who can cook wana make such a ROM will be awesome.
Thanks
I totally agree with you, would be nice if a chef could cook this up for us

Dude we talk about WWE ROM because i don`t understand anything from Italian
After many roms tested and tried (2.5), I was surprised with how fast 2.1 is. Never going back to 2.5 anymore. But I don't mind having 2.1 sense though.

Why to speak over PM for that reason i open a Thread everyone to can say what he/she think about this, so i dont mind to try the rom if there was avalible WWE translation of the ROM because i can see its good but what to do then? just Nothing.
And i don`t like the idea because few times you mention i can translate it if i have reason Also to write you in PM witch not sound GOOD.

Faster ROM is needed!!!
I was about to post something similar. Lately I've been quite disappointed with the performance of my Blackstone, especially the latest ROMs. I think too much attention is being paid to introducing new features from the latest devices at the expense of the speed. The lack of speed is quite frankly makes a device totally unusable despite all the new features.
To the OP: I'm not sure if it's a Sense/TF3D issue, as these can be either disabled or installed separately, but totally agree with bringing up the subject.
The most clean rom: Mario super lite (WM6.1 & WM6.5).
They are old builds but very stable and low memory & power eating.
I have tried most of roms from cookers here but always go back to these two.(Keep backups from two roms.) Now I using wm6.1 with SPB Mobile SHELL.

The TF3D is very very fast and Smooth so the diference is that the icons are not coloured but you can do it with a single cab also there have not my location service on the weather tab and you dont have the weather under the clock in the home screen but i ask myself HOW many times i watch the weather in the home tab under the clock? the question is Never all we can agree its more eye candy and beautyfull but is not usefull and many other things in the new SENSE are just for eye candy so befor a long time when i was using old TF3D i still remember for example when i tab to update the weather via WiFi the weather Update for around a half seconds WOWWW now with all the new SENSE things.. all the tabs are much more slower you need to wait the weather to be Updated and things like this.. Also i miss in the Album tab the Auto Rotation i can`t believe that this was removed from the new Builds because this was really usefull i mean when you click to see some image and you rotate the screen the image fit the whole screen really fast no matter how you rotate the screen, i dont know why this was removed...
Many peoples will say you can do this for example with G-config but the question is why to use 3rd Apps to make something that is made to be like this by default also the Auto rotation of the Album was really fast and smooth without delay.
Now with all this knowlage i mean the CFC Compression and all other regs tweak that we know and new Stuffs i can`t imagine what will be if someone create such a ROM WM 6.5 Based with Copmressed TF3D also can be compresed the Phone Canvas the dialer Images to be lighter and the whole graphics...to be compressed for example see the Blackstonehange ROM`s how they are smaller size than all other because of this compression of all images under windows.
This can be really a Rocket ROM for everday use..
There already have clean ROM`s without Manila and Titatnium.. Okay they are clean ROM`s but honestly is bored to use such as big screen without good UI and you need to use Apps like SPB Shell or other like that to have some UI because is ugly to have one empty big screen without a UI..
I think that the Manila UI is a good also the new SENSE is good but its not made for us.. and the Blackstone feel confortable with the old TF3D so with all this new things coming to the forum and all cooking expirience im sure that now someone can create really a Rocket ROM and you to feel Speed,Smoothnes,response time and to Enjoy the Blackstone to love to scrolling and to love to use it.. not to wait 5 seconds the Music in the Music tab to be loaded and things like this...
I Hope someone really to create some kind of HYBRID ROM from all the Best in one simple ROM

A perfect example of what we're talking about. I don't care about autorotations and stuff like that. If I did I would get an iPhone I guess . Speed and stability that's what it should be all about!
Ummm, yes...
I'm waiting to see what will happen here:
TOPIX_Kwbr_Win 6.5_Ver_21877 + TouchFLO3D 2.1.38411.0 (supposedly Kwbr will update this once he gets his HD working) and here: [ROM][WM6.5/6.5.x][21903/23116][WWE][UC] Clean ROM v. T1.0/B1.0*****03.05.2010*****
But I really like Manila 2.1.19212117.2 which is cooked in Wajk's ROMs.
It handles contacts and mail accounts much more to my liking than TF3D.
But I'll watch this thread too...

[Q] Best Froyo ROM with Sense or Sense like theme for G1?

Hi, im really sorry for the noob question but I was wondering if someone ( with trial and experience) knows the best STABLE Froyo Rom with htc sense for G1, I have seen few Roms with their own little additions and twists or maybe just the clock and home screen jump feature, even that would be fine, but since Im new I thought it would be easier to ask others for they fav sense or sense like ROM out there. thanks
