Hi,
I recently downloaded the Xperileo rom off the xperia-unoff site.
I love the rom, its got a great interface and features. I really like the graphics of this rom and Id like to keep something like this, I think its called sense or manilla. I really dont know though its confusing.
There is one or twos problem however.
1. The phone keeps freezing, requiring me to open the back of it and use the reset button. This is dangerous as if my family calls, I may not receive the call. This absolutely needs fixing. Is there a stable rom that will not freeze or have these problems that has the same type of scrolling or a really nice GUI like this one I am using ?
2. The other problem is that the interface is pretty slow, with text messaging being really slow to respond, and menus freezing for a few seconds.
If someone could recommend a stable but attractive rom I would be very appreciative. Stability and usability are top.
Thanks
Christof
You gotta test yourself a couple of ROMs. That's the best answer.
I've tried almost every rom here.
Energy and Valkyrie are both overbloated and unstable. Xperileo is unstable as well. Almost every rom with manila sense is unstable slow and rendering it almost unusable.
Try the 826x rom, it's the best one and has most stability i've seen in a rom. ♥
Also touch x is pretty good if your looking for absolute speed on manila.

u sound like me a couple of years back..anyways..Wildchild's ROM (Unavailable here on XDA) is by far the most stable Manila (now called Sense UI) ROM.
However if u dont want a Sense UI (HTC phone interface), i would suggest XPURE III OR II.
PM me if u still have problems.
All the best.
the best solution for your problem is use the original r3a rom.fastest rom whithout any bug .stable .I've tried all xda roms,after that I back to r3a rom.
Hi Guys,
Thanks for all the replies I do appreciate it.
It sounds like Manilla is a bit unstable, which is not safe for me.
What about windows 6.5. Whats the most stable or a very stable rom with nice icons? Dont care about the manilla stuff compared to stability. Just need something that never freezes.
Thanks again
Cheers
Christof
You CAN have pretty stable Sense/Manilla interface ROMs.
It's just that they are pretty much hit or miss. One version can be stable and reliable and another, issued 3 days later (and having replaced the earlier version) can be a mess.
I just recently started flashing ROMs and my experiences have been good so far. I have mostly played with the beautiful ENERGY ROMs and some have been good, some bad.
The Sense UI may not be a speed demon, but is gorgeous and works (although something like SPB Mobile Shell might be faster - not as good looking though). But the true differnce for me is in the speed of programs running. For me they work MUCH faster under ENERGY ROMs then on the stock ROM. This is most noticable with my GPS software which was slow, laggy and unstable under stock ROM, while is very reliable and works great under ENERGY ROMs.
My advice is to just find a good ROM that suits you and keep it, rather then enter the constant reflashing cycle. Some Sense ROMs are very stable.

With Sense UI: WildChild's ROM.
Without SEnse UI (Windows 6.5.x) : Russell Eclair XPure II or even III (im using this right now, its pretty good)

I find Russell Eclair XPure II to be a little slow compared with jerpelea's X2 port.
The only issue I have with jerpelea's ROM is the first times someone is calling me. I can' answer the phone and I have to pull out the battery. But after 1-2 days it works like a champ (without using Slideview, the X2 addition to panels).
If you want something fast and stable look for a clean ROM (like Laurenti's ROM, 23.08.2010 version used for 2 weeks with no problem, and really fast) or R3A ROM.
Cheers!

Try the Xpure III with the freeze fix given..It wil solve all your problems...I am using it myself...had the same problem as u..used the freeze fix and flashed XPure III NOT II...
I still maintain that Touch X 10.1 is the best rom out there.
It does exactly what I need. Great battery life, great speed and never had a freeze or SOD with it (EVER!).
Yes the graphics are a little outdated but I am willing to put up with that in exchange for the 3 above.

Just a Question: Do you hard reset after flashing the phone?
Yes, I always hard reset my phone after flashing.
for me dis ROM 826x WM 6.5.3 build 23680 - Sense 2018 is d fastest & quite stable..u still will exp wit sod once in a while but for me dis rom really worth trying..

Here you find the best Rom
My Reviews
i've been flashing my htc diamond a lot these days with different ROMS...
the best ones?.... it depends on what u need i.e:
-Energy ROM (WM 6.5 with sense 2.1)
Pros: I like this ROM a lot, its fast, its "eye candy" (looks good) and it's really stable, i never had a ROM problem with it.
Cons: It takes a lot of RAM to run it, so youll need a ram cleaner or soft reset if u want to run programs like GPS or even some heavy games... thats really bad for me cause i use GPS a lot... so, discarted
-Gen.Y D2X (WM 6.1 sense 2.5)
Pros: WM 6.1 makes it really lite, u dont need WM 6.5 for anything because the manila is everywhere (data settings, personalization, programs.. everything is covered) it is stable and really fast.
Cons: im maybe too demanding but i want a nice locker for my device ("WM 6.5 slider" or "manila locker") but im starting to think that it is too much to ask in this WM 6.1 ROM because i just havent found a good one (manila locker gets crazy if the device is in landscape mode and WM 6.1 cant handle any of the CHT(Co0kie home tab) locks) Co0kie home tab is a cab that lets you personalize your home tab, it is really cool but when it comes to locking the device it just lacks the possibility.
-Don salari: i used this one like for 3 minutes... it is really lite, it is stable... but that was achieved by taking a lot of things out and that is really annoying for example: youtube quick link is there but u cant use it.. and there are some other things like that...
-Back to basics: same as don salari... it IS BASIC
so.......
here i am, looking for another ROM, next one im going to try is Energy ROM with titanium and im going to install SPB mobile shell 3.5...
Mod. edit: not dev related, moved to general

I'm not saying it's perfect nor it's the best BUT...
Everytime I try another rom hoping to find a better one, in a matter of one or two weeks, I end up returning to Dia Duit.
BsB651G is one of the best and Phoenix 300 is very good.

Hi All
I am on R3A at the moment, which has all that I need, but I still find it very slugish and want to move to a custom ROM. Can someone who has tried the ROMs below let me know which of the 3 runs fastest for everyday tasks:
Touch X ULTIMATE 10.0 EXTREME
Touch-IT v9
Windows Mobile 6.5 for the XPERIA X1 - PURE ROM
Thanks in advance for any help.
Touch x. It is almost a perfect rom, would be perfect if it had the touch it colors and vibration
Bare is best
If have been Flashing my x1 more than 50 times and found the bare sex1 rom (Windows Mobile 6.5 for the XPERIA X1 - PURE ROM) is the on with the least bug's

I dont mind the odd bug here and there. But which ROM runs the fastest in your opinions?

Mmm...sorry for jumping in but i notice there is no Valkyrie's rom in your list which i thinks it is very fast and bugless.I don't know why it not in your list,may be it lack of popularity or you don't like manila+6.5? Of course other roms are great too,but i think this one is fastest/smoothest.
Why don't you try it,it just take few minits to flash (remember to hard spl first),may be you'll love it.Cheers
haven't try Valkyrie's.. but from ur list, I think Touch it 9 and gtrab's WM6.5 is faaast.. Touch X has a lag here and there sometimes but quite stable I think...
I've found gtrab's barebone ROM from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=509891 to be pretty quick to be fair. it might slow down a little if you install some apps though, I'm relatively happy atm with it as it is, I've not yet installed much.

IMHO F4810 wasn't in the least bit rude... He practically welcomed the posters to the thread, stated that he doesn't mind some bugs, and reiterated his original question.
wm 6.5 pure xperia x1 without panel, youtube and HTC staff.
I can safely say that Touch X v10 fixed and Touch IT v9 have to split the throne. Touch X does not have the sms bug though so I'd go with that one for now, just to be safe. It's actually as fast as a stock Touch Pro 2 now, it you watch some videos of TP2 on Youtube in envy, you really need to flash one of these roms, because then you get that speed ^^
I would say "barebone" roms are generally faster. Xperia's performance has always been an issue for me, slow video playbacks, sluggish video recording, etc etc.
In my opinion Touch X v10 is fast but slows down at times, eg. dismissing notifications, setting panels etc.

Dissmissal of the "Message sent" is notoriously slow to get past - you can turn it off with Advanced Config though. Setting panels I don't know about, but panels are quite a slow software overall to begin with
Definitely Touch X 10 - very fast and stable...

Thank you. I think me trying to be polite was lost in translation as being rude, but you correctly point out what I was trying to do.
Thanks for all your comments. I guess I need to check out Valkyries ROM too. I think the best thing is that I try all 4 ROMs for a few days each, and see which is best.
One last question, if I back up my ROM (R3A) as it is. Will it save all my personal settings, customisations, and installs too. So if I dont like any custom ROMS, I can go back to the exact way it was?
Thanks
F'
I agree, you weren't the least bit rude.
Anyway, please report back about your speed comparison.
Touch-IT V10.1
Touch-it V10.1
Hey guys,
Everytime I switch to a rom that is expected to be really good I end up with a laggy, slow, buggy device.
I tried almost every rom on this site and nothing really works for me.
I am looking for a ROM that is stable and somewhat up-to-date. Maybe manilla 2.1 or something. I really don't like all the new LEO roms, they are SO slow and buggy I don't even understand how some of you can deal with them.
What's the secret? or is my device just faulty and slow?
Can you name a ROM that you found to be fast and not too ugly? I also need 'some' eyecandy. Speed is of course the most important aspect.
Kind Regards
Thomas
Touch X 10.1 is the way to go...very stable, fast and looks good (especially the MrRusch blue theme).
I've tried many of the roms on this forum but yet always flash back to Touch X 10.1. If there was ever a perfect 6.1 rom this is it

Same here -tried almost every rom - jack v3.11 using now fast, smooth, no freezes. With HDwall you can change background see screenshots: http://mackosorbar.extra.hu/sex1.htm
Yep, jack v3.11, then either use the included TF3D or use SPB Mobile Shell.
I found Touch X 10.1 to be a dream really but I hoped that all the new stuff will help create a comprehensive rom that is also fast. I must have been mistaken. Some of those highly rated roms out there are a TRUE nightmare. I just don't get why people seem to like them.
When you try to navigate from one TF3D tab to another you get stuck 200 times + it randomly gets really laggy and then you have to restart.
I think I wll give jack a try.
the reason many are slow and buggy are because the manilla nd lots of other things in them are not actually finished by HTC yet nor is wm6.5.x!
wait for manila 2.5 and wm6.5.x to actually complete before you flash another rom if you want ultimate stability!
i lcan live with it because, well i'm a flashaholic
Not to mention you can't really judge a rom based on a version.
One day the rom will work pretty well, the next day it's a new build + new manila, etc, etc and it has entirely different problems.
My solution is to cook my own rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=564743
As you know many chefs cook their roms based on what they like, not what users want. After all, everyone has different needs and the chefs cannot customize a rom for everyone. That's why I also released my source kitchen for customization.
Are you looking for WM6.1 or WM6.5 - based rom? I can find you some manila 2.1 packages and put into my kithcen so you can start customizing.
deleted (eh? wassup with this thread?)
Hey Exxi,
I think you have to realise that WM6.5 and the new manila are both in beta. This is really an explosive combination.
For example I have found that pure WM6.5 roms are rather stable. You can use SPB Mobile shell or PoinUI and all will be fine.
Some WM6.5 + Manila 2.1.19 roms are quite stable (I said quite), usually the 23016 builds.
All the Leo roms tend to have issues.
There are many reasons for this, none of which can be attributed to the cooks. In effect the cooks do a fantastic job at making the Leo ROMs as good as they are. I have great respect for them.
As everyone said, TouchX 10.1 is your best shot. That ROM is a work of art.
If you want an upgrade from that, you can try the WM6.1 + Manila 2.1.19 ROMS, such as Jack v.3.11 and TouchX 10.5/10.6. If you want more Eye candy, play around with some nice themes, add some applications.
Alternatively get yourself a squeaky fast WM6.5 rom (23016 or even 23053...or the recently released WM6.5 One off) and use SPB mobile shell + SPB Phone suite + Various resco apps. The result can be quite pleasing.
Alternatively, you can try becoming a Titanium expert. I personally have failed miserably at that...but again...I hear it can be quite pleasing.
P.s. One final word, I have been watching closely the WM6.5 + Manila 2.1.19 ROMs. I would like to point out that while there still is a noticeable difference in performance with the WM6.1+ Manila 2.1.19 ROMs, this gap is closing up rather quickly.
NRGZ28 manila 2.1 roms
Try NRGZ28 2.1 manila roms. Fase and stable. Few things to complain. Last version is 22.09.2009 standard 2.1. Works best for me.
G.
Here too, i tried a lot of roms during the first couple of months with my X1, then when i found TouchX 10 then 10.1 i stayed with them, now once a month i flash to one of those Beta 6.5 or Leo roms to see if i ever can find a new stable fast rom, but most of the times i get back to TouchX 10.1 after a couple of hours.
now i moved to TouchX 10.5 which is as much stable as the TouchX 10.1, the best ROMs ever
and my trick to do everything fast is to backup the entire rom before trying some other rom with SPB Backup, then when i reflash back to TouchX 10.1 i just do a full restore and i am back productive as before, all settings and apps are back in their place..

This is a good approach. I find myself returning to TouchX 10.1 all the time, too. I have finally managed to curb my flashing habit and only flash when I find a ROM that seems to have something I REALLY want to try.
Right now I am using Valkyrie 3.8.53 Leo since it allows me to use the latest version of the Dusk theme which I had to try out. Looks fantastic and it seems that the ROM is almost at the same usability level as Touch X 10.1 now, but not quite.
I don't think it will take much longer for manila 2.5 to be working as well as 2.1 and the latest builds of WM6.5 are also almost as good as 6.1. Still some teething issues, the biggest for me being the WM6.5 volume adjuster app which sucks IMHO.
The short but crude answer would be: stay away from Windows Mobile
No really, it's getting better by the day so there's hope.
Personally, I use mobilevu's V-Lite 4.3. It's a little older but works like a charm.
Titanium only, but I combine this with SPB 3 so I have a stable and snappy X1!
I keep hitting the same brick wall over and over again.
In long term, SE stock R3 tends to be most stable and bug-free. Jack's has been faster, but it has it's own share of bugs.
So after trying out about 10 ROMs every few months i land back on stock ROM and just customize it a bit.
TouchX 10.1, Is the Chosen One.
Using Valkirie 2.9 Firestorm. For me it's best ROM, i'm using this ROM already for more than month. Tried switching to 2.5 but new windows mobile design and 2.5 Leo is not usable as 2016 builds are and 2.1 Manila.
i always return to touch x 10.1
it is the best rom in terms of speed and stability.

V-Lite here also.Exactly as you told, This ROM+SPB and Resco stuff and one stable and hardworking X1 since one month ago. I can use Titanum whenever I want though. I think mobilevu is waiting for the official release of WM6.5. I hope he comes back to upgrade his ROM at that time.

Agreed: The best 6.1 is probably Touch X 10.1. Master Smaberg was very good.
6.5 is a different beast. There are MANY GREAT ROM's out there. Each has its own 'issues'. You can usually find the best ROM for 'you' by defining what it is you need in your phone. And go for it.
My needs are, in order, Phone,email, sms, internet, fast, pretty. For these I have found NRG ROMs work best for me.
Christians, Valkyre, Tornado, Jack, and others ALL make good ROMs. Each has an issue that impacts my basic needs. BUT...I try each of their new ones..!!!
hi all
please i want to know from the experts who has X1 or who upgrade X1 to WM6.5 , what is the advantages and disadvantages of the upgrading ?
what happened ?
does the phone got slow ?
does the battery runs out fast ?
please advice me before i do any thing ?
i please you all
thank you so much waiting your soonest reply
best regards
Hmm, after running WM6.5.5 for a while I guess I can share my experiences with you.
The biggest advantage I think is userinterface. After you have played with WM6.5.5 for a while you will find WM6.1 old and crappy and actually useless, lol. The renewed userinterface really makes things a lot better and more finger friendly, especially if you combine it with Sense 2.5. I haven't used the pen anymore since I've upgraded to WM6.5.5
WM6.5.5 itself doesn't make your phone run slow. Only I do think the battery usage was a bit better on WM6.5.5, but I'm not sure... it's been a while ago.
I run WM6.5.5 in combination with Sense 2.5, which does make the phone a bit slower. However I prefer Sense 2.5 much over the aditional speed without Sense 2.5
please read several threads
theres more advantages than disadvantages thats for sure,
Normal xperia firmware had some basic functions compared to cooked roms,
as i noticed on energy's rom and Touch-IT BR <> Sense 2.5 speed and stability increased alot, as well as programs
im currently using Touch-IT_BR_23547 and battery last just as long as the stock firmware and is more friendly for fingers since i lost my stylus
its best to try several roms to find one to make it more convenient and less frustration to use in terms of accessing a program and its reliability when you really need it
you need to read a couple of threads to understand and gain confidence when you flash her, of else you wont get anywhere,

you lost 2 stylus'es? damn
what about the pure WM6.5 (not cooked or customized ) , is it will be stable , fast and the battery will be the same as the original rom WM6.1 ?
thanks all gus
No, i dont think so.
The thing is there is not any 6.5 room for X1, just cooked room. Therefore, cooker have to modify the room in order to keep it stable on X1. So some rooms like Infinity or X1.5 is a good choice for you.
- Stable
- Fast
- Best battery comsume (your battery will last longer)
- Infinity has pure 6.5 interface
I used to hate 6.5 roms. Found them too slow, but after flashing this 826x rom, i changed my opinion. Its really quick. Battery last quite long but not as long as stock rom I guess. For best results you should use task29 then flash a stock rom then this rom. You can get the 826x roms from here http://http://826x.blogspot.com/

Ditto. Williyung's 6.5.5 826X ROMs are basically perfect. Highly highly recommended. Stability is probably even better that stock ROM. Speed and battery are the same. Finger friendliness is improved, as everyone mentions.

Yes, Im using Williy's ROMs as well and it was the first WM 6.5 I actually liked. I don't like sense. Its messing things up too much.
The only advantage left is speed for WM 6.1. One gotta know what's wanted...
Looking for a good reliable rom, just wondering what would you say is the best rom to have on my blackstone?
the clean rom ist the best and the fastest rom on xda.
the top version is better than the bottom version.
==> try clean rom top version 1

BlackNew V
I really like BlackNew ROMs. I tried Energy ROMs, both on my Diamond and current Blackstone. They are pretty and full of apps, but slows down the machine a lot. And for speed and functionality is top priority
With BlackNew ROMs you get speed and some usefull apps
are the mods on holiday? they normally close these threads because they can be so contentious
Yep cant be long before the padlock cometh...We're not allowed to have a discussion about who likes which rom & why on here You've got to spend hours and hours, days and days trying them all yourself and going with the one you like, but remember not to post to tell anyone..

The mods will soon type something into this thread along with this line: "thread closed"
Maybe the Mods have realized that you can't close down these types of questions, hence another one will always pop up! These forums by nature produce these comparisons, so in effect they are the root cause. Can you condemn something that you are responsible for?
I love Energy Roms...I always come back to these. They just are "eye candy", and have all the features and personalization ideas that I love...but they are really designed for the HD2 which makes them "fat" on our HD units...Eg... they are 220+ MB for a ROM footprint compared to 168MB for a KWBR rom footprint. Hence the downside to me is they are generally more sluggish COMPARED to others...but they get faster as NRG keeps cooking.
KWBR's rom is quicker, but would love to see some eye candy enhancements.
Miniterror's roms are awesome...but would love to see CHT back in.
Have not tried many of the others as these guys keep producing too much quality to send me elsewhere..
I tried Kenia's BLack V, and that was awesome!! But just could not got back to the 6.1 OS...but he did a super job blending new age enhancements with the stability and speed of the older systems.
Thanks cooks

I don't see the problem with other people's opinion it's like feed back in one place instead of going through each thread on the ROM have one thread with feed back for all the ROM's in one place. Just an idea..
the reason why they get closed is that everybody has a different look of how a rom should lok like and what should be included in the rom
as it are opinions there cant be decided whats the best rom
also benchmarking wont be the answer as i have read that you can set some thing that the rom becomes verry slow but benchmark scores mega high that it should be the best rom
so for me the best rom is my own
i like the colors that are in and the programs and the fact its dutch
some others could like nrg rom more as they like those colors or the startmenu at the bottom builds
it all comes down to you what you want
maybe on a side note somebody can make a spreadsheet off the roms out here with the functions the roms have like startmenu at the bottom or on top
colors or default look and stuff like that
best ..
.. is your own ROM ..
My best: Blackdragon 3 Final
I tried them all, but with a windows phone speed and stability should be top priority. You can always customise your phone to your requirements. So I vote for blackdragon by Andy, as my best rom; mainly becasue of its incredible speed and stability.
I've tried most ROMs and became a bit of an NRG fan but I think there are too many changes for me to keep up with these days. It's great to try many ROMs and see what nice toys there are and also which areas of stability you need.
Been using G10's Evo v6.00 (24001) 30.06.10 for a couple of weeks and have to say I love it. Battery and connection (UK) as well as GPS for TomTom is great so I'm sticking with this for a bit.
I'm sure some great new feature or app will tempt me to try something else in the future though.
Just flash a couple a week until you get bored (by then you'll know exactly what you want) would be my best advice
Hi there,
I my opinion these are the best 3 options:
1: [ROM][WWE][10-Jul-10] Cloudy 0.4 (WM6.1)
It's one of the fastest roms on this forum but has all the features you want. It's no "clean"rom or anything like that. I see this rom as one of the "jewels" around here. I did not detect 1 bug or glitch or anything like that while using this rom for a week now.
2: Try KWBR's rom. I am a big fan of his work and his roms are usually the most stable and also very fast.
3: Go with a wm6.5 titanium rom and if you like buy spb mobile shell and customize it the way you want. I belive ram usages will go up to around 50% while using spb so you are probably not as fast as option 1 or 2.
Good hunting!
i would say again there is no such thing best rom...
read the sticky dude...
every chef has different goal on their rom release
exp
- want clean roms for fast performance ( i prefer clean rom ... )
- want stable rom less bug ( for stable i prefer stock rom )
- want best look for lastest rom release ( WM 6.5 com 5 built )
I think jude1993 just wanted people's opinion to what they liked or disliked about the ROM's. I am intrested aswell. What is the best ROM is the wrong title for this thread though, Maybe it should say your opinion of the ROM's. Just an idea
I've tried loads of different roms too....Gets very tedious Loading all your programs n contacts n messages etc..
This weekend I've tried most of NRG's latest offerings, but dear god they are slow. For me anyway I use my phone for work, not to look trendy, but to run fast, stable & smooth.
I've come from Onkologs stable of roms, so its been tricky to find a modern comparison...And I much prefer 6.5 to 6.1, but not the latest bottom button builds.
For me the fastest most stable clean rom I have come across and go back to each and every time is....
Energy.BLACKSTONE.21895.Titanium.Mar.17
Needs a bit of tweaking here n there but have not found anything to touch it for speed/fluidity/stability.
Just my opinion
Mick
this is very interesting
as i've been trying out WWE 6.1, 6.5 and 6.5sth(at least 30+ times of flashing)...i'd say i eventually chose WWE 6.1 Lite Rom. The reason why to my choice is more speed, more rom capacity, and ram usage. Well, actually most cookers here did very good job as theirs roms are stable, compatiable and fast in general, appreciated! Without considering eye candy interface, WWE 6.1 is the most fastest rom compare to WWE 6.5 or up...
All in all, there's always sth i think which hardly get solved is language patch problem. Ok say like i am chinese, hk...my rom is WWE 6.1, i'd spent some certain time trying out chinese patch which i needed to read and write chinese...some cabs installed that could read and write in chinese but then while some app running that easy to get device "hang", some apps couldn't display chinese characters properly...this is i what found so far an unresolved issue...would you agree...?
thanks
cheerz
over the past 3 days i have flashed about 5 roms Im currently trying miniterror ,but i find my self wanting to go back to the energy roms more for the eye candy
before it used to be duttys roms but now im neither here or there.
But always gravitating towards Energy the Maryone roms I have tried so many times and they always feel too slow and sluggish ...

try CLoudy 2.2 COM5 or COM2... for me, this is the best ROM ever had. no issues with this ROM. retain more stock ROM... not very much added application or programmes for optimal speed
okay if there is no best rom ,, i need the fastest rom with out bugs ???
can i get this
