or any other!?

I voted for the LE voted for the LEWA listed.
But actually it is HAKA's Lewa based on Prime HD.
And i use the Lewa Rom v4 which is made from scratch by Chinese Devs..
I think poll should include that or an other option.

GingerDX is the most stable. But it still depends on you.

I was using the original FroyoPro for some time now and I can say it was a rather good ROM.
However lately it had started to become sluggish so last night I decided to upgrade to 2.3. I thought of using GingerDX but I don't like that there is text in the lock screen (yep, I am one of those people ) so I opted for PrimeHD.
All was well, for the 12 hours I used it until I decided to reboot in recovery. That was it, now I am stuck on the Sony Ericsson screen, :/ . I hope I can sort it out without the need to reflash.

GinderDX and MiniCM7 were the fastest and most stable for me. Can't decide which is better. But im using MiniCM9 now, mostly because i'm glad about that my good old machine can still handle ICS

GingerDX iz the best

For me its GingerDX the BEST

I was waiting for ICS for a long time, so MiniCM9 is the chosen one for me!

Now i´m running on MiniCM7 with stock kernel and i don´t have any problems.

i think if you want a stable rom,, try using gingerDX new version is v25,,or you can try minicm7,,but it all depends on your choice

Atifroyo works d best...but the lack of a theme chooser is a big no-no

Which would you recommend for me?

Hello, I have a new SE Xperia x8 and I obviously want to upgrade from Android 2.1. Which would you recommend to me as being the most compatible and stable with new apps.
I do know how to install them but I am wondering whether I should install MiniCM7 Android 2.3.5 or GingerDX 2.3.5. I have heard MiniCM7 is more stable and has more features than GingerDX but as I am a noob which would you recommend?
Thanks
Just wondering if someone can help me!
Hello I would recommend you gingerDX cause i am using it and it completly stable only problem i have is with wifi
Nah, GingerCruzt is faster!

GingerDX V013 ! Wat the creator, daioxanh has done with this rom is he has removed all the useless crap no one really needs, thus freeing a total of 99 ram, the maximun amount. Its really fast and smooth

Depends on what u do on your phone. Do you often play games, use wifi for browsing the net, editing the theme of your phone, etc.?
Gingercruzt for the win!
I would recommend gingerDX too. its a good mixed rom for all...
Facebook, games, sms, musik etc...
Im using v17 and im very happy with it :-D

Stock ROM 2.1-update-1 : Very stable but less features
Froyobread 2.2.9 : Most stable custom ROM
GingerDX 2.3.7 : Stable CM7 ROM
LinuxDX Kernels : Kernels For X8 look at features fore more information
Its all up to you coz everyone like others roms...so try couple of them and decide.which one is better for you....

Gingerxperia v8 is the greatest gaming rom if you likes to play games a lot
If you want most stable rom for daily us i would recommend gingerdx
As you've noticed a lot of the suggestions involves loading up a Gingerbread derivative that a lot of the others before me have touted as stable and would say wifi doesn't work or camera video no record etc, . I use GingerXperia V8 myself.
But since you've admittedly are a Noob to the X8 scene, I would suggest one of the favors of FROYO or Android 2.2. since everyone would agree that it has the most mature of the current X8 ROM's. And a good way to introduce you to the world of X8 modding.
Check out the links below for a guide to X8 ROMs and Rooting.

Gingerxperia v08 is the best!
Before this i tried many rom like Floyo, Froyobread, GingerDX.
But other rom cannot fight with Gingerxperia!
More smooth, more fast, less lag.
Floyo rom no more update.
Froyobread rom already final BUT always reboot auto.
GingerDX rom not smooth and still under develop.
So, gingerxperia WIN!
First try GingerDx(last version).If you dont have battery drain problem stick to it.It's the best.If you are unlucky like me and your battery drain fast try FroyoBread 023b.

Rom for Stock Kernel

Hello all, what is the best rom for stock kernel ? Which do you prefer?
Sorry for my English
GingerXperia v22. My opninion: Smooth,great looking! Using it as daily rom..)

depends on you buddy,if ya like active 4corner launcher then go for it or arc launcher without 4 corner
now using gdx v22. Kuyadroid 4.5.4 also very nice.
List of ROMS are tried
Floyobread and froyopro are quite good , fast and stable. However it resembles the SE Stock Eclair. If you are looking for froyo , go for froyobread.
If you are looking for Gingerbread ,
GingerDx v21 is what I am using right now. It has a different interface , and a very stable ROM.
I prefer GingerDx over GingerXperia.
Do not go for Honeycomb/ICS
GDX, Linuxperia(i think it's for stock kernel)

Best ROM for nAa kernel???

Good Evening guys...
Wanna ask, what's the best ROM for nAa-11 now in your opinion? I used GingerXperiaRay V004 before, but then cannot change the default launcher (360 launcher). Then I try Xperience V4.0, but when I install widgets, it doesn't show in widget option. Are there any suggest for better ROMs than these? With overall functions of course As for now I still use Xperience ROM but already back-up both ROMs. How about ROMs based on Cyanogenmod 9? Any recommended ROM available now?
I was testing GingerXperiaRay V004 for some time too and I could change launcher without any problems Don't know why You can not.
From very long time I'm using iROM. First was iROM v004 on top of nAa kernel 8b and 9. But know I'm using iROM v005 on top of nAa 11. It's MiniCM7 2.1.9 ROM with better look and some changes. For me it's great
Of course it's MiniCM7-2.1.9 download it from the official site for cm

MiniCM7-2.1.9
I thinks GingerXperiaRay really smooth,fast, but it still have some problem about Status bar because it based on MiniCM 2.1.8, i hope nobodyAtall will fix soon and GingerRay will have a good version 5
press thanks if i helped

+1 for Achotjan Semc Debrand Engine
Although there are some bugs:
1) USSD not working, but when you install the "fix", then messages are not working (this is what happen to my gf X8)
2) wi-fi tethering (I don't use it and I didn't tested it, although there is a fix for that too)
3) FOR SOME: wifi. I said "for some" because I think it's working afterall but many people might have done the same mistake like I did. After installing the rom, wifi was working ok, but I noticed Android system taking more than 50% of the battery, so I wiped the battery stats and the wifi stopped working (this means that you can connect to the network, but you cannot browse the web, it will not load any pages, etc). Now, after reinstalling the rom again (maybe the 4-5th time), wifi is ok but still no fix for USSD AND messages (together).
Xperience v5 deodexed
Hi all,
My personal favorite has to be Xperience v5 deodexed..
It's fast, very fast.. Games are far smoother than any other rom i've tried..
AndroVDR works perfectly so I can stream my livetv and satellite to the phone..
Calls are clear, wifi great, data great.. I must say I'm impressed with the quality compared to previous versions which i found to be really slow and clunky..
There are some great roms here, I've tried nearly all of them, but a few stand out above the others.. Xperience v5, PrimeHD, CM7 2.1.9 and S-Rom..
These, in my opinion, are the best roms for the nAa kernel..
For the best experience with ANY rom start with a clean sd card..
Have fun,
CtrlAltDel
i belive xper v5 best for naa kernel
In my opinion would say minicm 2.1.9 always fast never laggy and good gaming

ginger dx v24.Stock kernel.
Screenshot of antutu score.
Test done without killing any apps, and without turning airplane mode on and without overclocking and swap. Smooth...
edit: don't know why but there seem to be errors when i upload the screen. Anyhow, my score is....1600 (exact), low because of ram (using some apps while testing) and sd read&write (having the standard sd that came with the phone).
I have stock kernel.
And for me
PrimeHD V6.0 tops the list followed by GingerDx V024 followed by GingerXperia , which in turn followed by Froyopro which again is followed by Froyobread. :O
People say LiuXperia is best for gaming. But haven't tried that out

[Q] What's the best rom for stock kernel? [HELP PLS]

Guys, please tell me your opinions , what's the best rom for my xperia x8 with stock kernel (locked bootloader :W48) ...
I've tried many roms but i can't find a stable,fast,good rom with xperia look...
So you need to test roms,for example for me can be good GDX v30 and for another member is better xperia blur.I can you only suggest a few roms,and you must choose the best for you.You can try GDX v30 stock,gingerxperia v02,xperia alt this rom looks nice for me,and stock version of blur cm7.Rember no one rom is the best.

I'd say Froyobread v23b.
Any Froyo Rom , FroyoPro or Froyobread , takes full advantage of stock kernel.
