[Q] Customized Froyo ROM with Stock Look - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I just want to ask if there is a Customized Froyo ROM that has a stock look? I mean not using any launcher. And it must have a very good gaming perfomance (most likely can play Plants vs. Zombies).
Hope you can recommend one.
Thanks!

You can try froyobread or froyo pro, and install arc theme and active launcher
and the phone look like stock one

[Q] {Q} Which is the best rom {Performance & Free Ram}

{Q} Which is the best rom {Performance & Free Ram}
I want to play games like gta III
now i use minicm7 2.1.9 with naa11
Which is the best rom {Performance & Free Ram}
Hi there,
For me it has to be Xperience v5.0 deodexed with nAa 11 kernel..
For performance use a class 10 sd card.. Nothing else comes remotely close..
RAM is different, everyone will be different.. Same phones with same rom and kernel wont give the same ram free..
Antutu 2.6 score of 2038 @ 748Mhz.. (Pretty damn good)
ALWAYS start your install with a formatted sd card.. Keep your backups on the computer!
Have fun,
CtrlAltDel
I use a 16GB Class 10 card (overkill if you ask me). CM-based ROMs seem to hold the keys (a balance of most good stuff) and miniCM ROMs kick ass. They don't have the best of eye-candy however.
Try linuxperia or Xperience or GingerJh
with alfs or naA kernal

do u have an mediafire link ????
I with GingerDX v023 and Alfs 08 and 256 mb of swap I don't have any bugs, and all games run

[Q] Need more RAM

Hi,
I'd like to know which ROM is capable of starting up and run with less memory? What I mean to ask is, I want a ROM that starts up with < 150mb of ram and provide me more space for running my downloaded apps.
I've tried MIUI, CM9, etc., all starts up with 300mb utilized! Gives me only 30-50 mb space
I know my device is getting older Waiting for S3
Thanks,

Hi, does the android version makes any diffrence to you?
If it doesn't i will probbably suggest you to use GamerzRom.
the problem is that the base kernel of Gamerz is SemforeBM and you can't youse 720P quality while taking a video.
however, you can always use another kernel, though with BM the performence are awsome.
Try myics
I usually have 150 mob to spare

I think Slim and Infinitum are best for RAM on ICS, GamerzRom best on GB.
For GB gamerz rom, i'm in v9 and when i start the phone it use 150mb of ram (200mb of free ram) for v10 it will be more
on ics (slim) you have kernel with 402MB ram
for my phone i still prefer gb and gamerz rom
Use ICSSGS RC4.2 + Devil2 0.72 XL kernel i got 200-210 mb free ram with this config.
Just use a stock froyo rom (2.2 or 2.2.1) like JS8.
JS8 is probably on of the best roms for our device, fast and stable.
Don't forget, if you flash another rom do a factory reset to remove previous garbage from other roms.
Use Slim Rom, always have 200 mb ram free for apps.

Are you sure? Its fast and support all Apps? How long are you using this ROM? How many Application/Game do you use?
Thanks!

I dont mind about the Android version. GB is okay with me. But does Gamerz ROM gives more of usable RAM? How long are you using?
Thanks again!
Currently i don't use this rom because i got tired of messing up with roms and decided to keep my phone as stock as possible.
Before this decision i used the phone for months and i was quite happy, the performance is good at any level (Games, OS Smoothness), i don't remember any app that i couldn't use. Also the network and wireless levels were very good.
Also it's the stock rom with highest quadrant score if i'm not mistaken.
But keep in mind, each type of user has it's rom, so it depends from person to person.

Only ICS kernel with swap is devil 0.73 test version. Swap feature works great for many guys.
if want the ICS try slim sics or Aokp + devil 2.72 xl kernel
I'm om Aokp+ devil i have free ram with some apps running between 190 to 160 free ram
and if wanna Gb try gamerz i think the best GB free ram Rom
Thanks guys..
Thanks to everyone who replied.
I've now installed Slim ICS 3.1 (from WeUI) and happy about the performance, as I get solid 150-200 MB free RAM memory always. I will use this for 2 weeks and then update here about the performance with apps/games installed.
Also, I will install below ROMs suggested by you guys.
Gamerz
ICSSGS + devil
Stock froyo JS8 ( hopefully, I won't like it)
In Slim ICS, have to try (1) Devil kernel, (2) a kernel with swap (devil again - 0.73)
AOKP + devil
Thanks again!

[Q] A Couple Rom Questions....THANK YOU!!!

Hello there, a couple of questions, I am at the moment running ginger dx, but Im not really a fan of CyanogenMod, So dont really want to use CM9/7/6 which pretty much narrows down the selection of roms
I have the Eclair (I think) Rom that came with the phone stored on computer (2.1.1.C.0.0) which I find very good, and completely lag free in every way (unlike the cyanogenmod ones sometimes)
I want just to know a couple of things.....is the C.0.0 the latest original rom from sony ericsson? did they bring a froyo rom out?
is there any complete stock (based on c.0.0 or later) custom roms???
I like to partition memory card so i can get a extra gig to store games etc, does link2sd or similar work on such a early rom???
I await your replys
-GARY
Yep... 2.1.1.C.0.0 is the latest.
You can try...
Beagle ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1562511
X-Rom v3 and X-Clean v1 http://http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1431231
They are based on 2.1.1.C.0.0. Partition works (ext2, IDK about ext3 and ext4 but try the X8 Toolbox ext4). IDK if SWAP partition works... Link2SD also works (I even using it on CM7 roms because mounting SD to PC is SLOW... )
I haven't tried those yet because some of my apps are for GBs.
hi
yes 2.1.1.C.0.0 its the lastest,no froyo or gongerbread oficial for our x8´s
there is a rom based on stock here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1633046 by 2010matej and yes link to sd works in eclair bro

Oh... I didn't knew Matej has new ROM already
Thanks for the info.
As stated above I would use one of Matej's Stock;Based ROMs.
Personally, I don't like the Stock ROM because of the Sony skin on it . Of course when I used the Stock ROM I didn't know about A-Cheps themes for it
Sent from my Xperia™ PLAY using TapatalkHD
Thanks to you all gonna flash one of those
I think I will actually try out the froyo roms, eclair, very stable, is missing a lot of options I use daily
I was using miniCm7 2.2.0 and it was completely lag free you can try it for yourself
and it is stable too

Help Choosing Custom Rom

Hi, for the first time I'm planning to install a custom rom so infact I'm doing this only because of native app2sd support:fingers-crossed: but to be honest I want a full compatible custom rom which should support and run most applications from market and performance should be good just like the stock 2.1 if not better... and if possible then camera and all other major functions should be working in it without any bugs.
That's all I ask .. currently I'm thinking about :
cyanogenmod
GingerDX
GingerZaraki
but I don't know which one is better Don't really want to unlock bootloader / kernels unless really necessary..
Thanks in advance.

Unlocking bootloader & installing a custom kernel is highly recommended ( if u don't know how to unlock & required build date DON'T TRY IT)
Best rom for stock is Gingerdx (my opinion) very stable, smooth.
Camera, etc works fine & without bugs.
Native app2sd is also supported

Why internal memory low in custom ROM as comapre to stock ROM

Its first time i installed custom ROM CyanogenMod 10 with jellybean 4.1.1 in my galaxy s i9000 but i find out that internal memory is only 422MB while original stock ROM come with ample 1.5 gb internal memory. Why is that ? People get custom ROMs for improving their software. I also want to know that when you install custom ROMs your galaxy s i9000 still able to play video formats like divx/vidx ?
Thank you guys

If you are having a galaxy S I9000, then in stock rom your internal storage would be 1.8 GB and with CM10 and above it will be 1.46 GB. This is to ensure that adequate amount of space is available for system apps as size of a JB rom including google apps is much larger than a Gingerbread rom.
You can play all kind of video formats no matter what rom you are on.. try mxplayer.. I personally use that and it hasn't disappointed me yet.

Thanks for reply dude
Whatever you said make sense but my internal memory in CM10 is only 422 mb not 1.4 gb..its jelly bean 4.1.1
So i would have to install additional video player to play these video formats..i would not need to do this in stock ROM because it was built in there

If i remember right, old 4.1.1 Roms implemented this small partition layout (422 mb) for a short time but quickly revised to the big partition layout (1gb+).
I suggest you flash to the latest build 4.2.1 Roms.
Device: GT-i9000
Rom: JB 4.2.1 C-RoM Mix v7
