Hi Guys,
This is not a ROM/Kernal or some tweaks.
Just purely discussing and sharing some reviews abt current ROM's.
I hope this thread will help for some dummies, or for some who required Stable or Fater & Smoother or much great look ROM's.
This is purely my personal Experiance.. Im not commenting on any one's ROM just sharing few thoughts with you guys..
Correct me if i was wrong, and sorry if i unknowingly hurts anybody's feeling.
First of all thanks to our SGS ROM Developers where they are working nites for latest ROM's updated tweaks or kernals.. simply million thanks to them.. else we should have only SAM's deafult firmware.
Coming to my point,i purchased my SGS I9000 n dec 2010.
Previously i dont have any idea of ROM neither XDA nor anything.
When i googled for info on SGS then i found link to DARKYROM, there i got links to XDA.
FOA i would like to thak Darky as i started to flash Custom ROM after i read the whole story posted on his Darky 9.2 stable version, he included almost every thing like which a new guy can easily understand.
9.2 Darky ROM really rocks. Then i moved to DOC's thread,
oh man here u can cook ur own stuff... u ll get here any ROM/CSC/MODEM... this is purely awesome like a supermarket .
Then Juwe's/ultimate & Sweet honey.. these guys are nite raiders always go for newest and experiantal but they ll never let you down.
last but not least Serendity ROM(currently where my journey paused for a while), superb ROM with ultimate fast.
SO my obs are
darky:- if you want Stable Release and want to stay for long time this is best ROM i get.
DOC:- here u c all ROM's and all varieties till last date, you will really confuse which ROM/CSC/Modem version u should go,
I found Serendity is my choice where u will get excellent Faster smoother and Stable and less battery drain if you are with JPY Modem. I mean without any tweaks or some bla .. bla... Just simply install and sit back and enjoy Perfect ROM for daily use.
Once again im telling tht im not Judging any ROM here, just want to Share some views of mine on various ROM's.
2.3.2 is out but lot of FC's going currently no stable yet, i suggest wait for some Darky's/DOC's Stable Release.
I found (ROM) GingerCriskelo for 2.3.2 is bit smoother and less FC's (if anybody want to try 2.3.2).
Same for me + yes serendipity a big discover but it's not late!....2.3.2 will coming.....!!!!

Guys i just flashed Insanity 0.6.7, way gud.. one should try.. just like Tricky very lite but look wise impressed with gud tweaks..
I have been on darky's for a little bit now (since early v8) and its been really, really nice. but now i seem to have cought the bug, and i just want to flash all the different roms out there and see whats out there. tomorrow I'm off to the land of cm7, then maybe miuiand then some of the roms here will be my next stops, i guess i'll report back with my findings
I am on Juwe 1.9 and it works great. Just waiting to see battery life, everything else I am satisfied.
Also when I had a HTC Desire, I was on MUIU and its was defenatly best custom ROM.
Hello,
I am currently on miui rom. But i want to flash jvz 2.3.6 custom rom. I cant figure out which one is stable and i dont have much time these days to try all. So which is the most stable jvz or jvt rom??

Cm7. stupid answer to a stupid question.
In this moment i use JVU and is stable! I recomend that!
You will flash a JVwhatever, notice that they cannot compete with AOSP roms like CM7 or MIUI and flash back.
I recommend, in aim of saving time, to stay on MIUI.

Thats why i wrote that its a stupid question. Cause such questions tends to get people back to the same old fight between cm7/miui/samsung based roms.
i think you won't find the "best" jvz rom. they are all different and have all some problems, but thats android
btw i think DoctorzRom and S.U.R.F.A.C.E. are very stable and good

Once you try tornado you will never look back
Simplicity is the best Gingerbread ROM ever for our Sammy..
The last release (yesterday) is 2.1 based on JVZ..cool!
But BLN doesn't seem to work for sms..any suggestions?
10 answers, and ten different advice.
Some about CM7, forgeting to remember you how bad battery life is,
some about their own rom ( I let you judge if their opinions are really relevant ^_^ )
And others about random roms.
So I won't give you any advice, except that you have to try them all and find the one that fits your needs.
You could trust some developpers more than some others, but it's not so easy as many "old and known" developpers do not behave, to my mind, as real gentleman, and troll a lot (and i'm not only talking about $omator ...)
Good luck, and welcome back to the jungle of random quality rom
this is a good rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1388342 based on JVZ

Hey x8 XDA'ers.
First of all, I'm sorry for asking this kind of question, but Please bear with me man.
I'm looking for a good STABLE rom with stable battery life, good performance etc, for my sister. She's tired of hers Xperia X8 since it feels slow and react so damn slow.
I'm a SGSII user myself, so I dont know nothing about X8, but I promised her to try and improve her phone's performance so I would be grateful if you could tell me which rom's I should take a look at. Since it is my sister he knows nothing about tech-related stuff, so the rom needs to be stable and good for daily usage, since if anything goes wrong she have no clue what to do
I know XDA hate questions like "what is the best rom etc..", but I'm just asking for your personal experiences with the different rom and what you would recommend for this kind of usage
Thank you XDA!
if she doesn't need a lot of features and she's okay with eclair, i'd say stick with stock. or go for any of the gingerbread roms. all of them work great especially gingerdx and minicm7. plus if you install a custom kernel and overclock it slightly, performance would improve drastically. and if you want to go for ics, try minicm9 or isdx. h
MiniCM7 + nAa kernel is the most stable Rom out there.
Sent from my E15i using xda app-developers app
Well, if you want android 2.3 then choose between gingerDX or MiniCM7.
If android 4.0 then MiniCM9.
well, if its about your sister i can tell that she dont need high performance, but an improvement is nessecery.....and this rom must have and some beautiful icons?! am i wrong to somewhere?...no i am not!hahaha:laugh:
first to do, download x8toolbox(here), root, install busybox, install cwm, download gingerdx(here), put it in your sd card, reboot to cwm, full wipe-wipe dalvik, go to "install zip from sd", find the rom you download and wait until its finish, reboot, enjoy!
(i dont thing your sister needs a custom kernel, with this rom she will not have any problem and its a tone more awesome from eclair, so see will be happy)
this is all.
1. Pls use search next time.
2. Is the phone already rooted? Cwm installed? You may want to check our stickies for that.
3. I'm assuming your sis is on stock kernel (locked bootloader). If it's unlocked then that's a whole new ballgame.
Here are some you ay wanna check out:
1. Froyo roms are supposedly faster than gb roms (never tried though, so i can't elaborate on the features)
2. The really popular GingerDX. Smooth, fast, stable, and lots of features.
3. LinuxLx's LinuXperia. Cm 7.1. Great 2d/3d scores (dev is a girl so the appearance may be to your sister's liking)
4. Xperiafan's RCI V4. Haven't used it much but has good reviews.
Hope that helps.

First of all, thank you so much for all those fast answers! Thank you!!
#2
She mainly wants better reaction/performance but an upgrade to Gingerbread or ICS would be great as well. I don't know if it would be good for the performance or not tho.
Thanks, I think I will check out Gingerdx, isdx and miniCM9. I think I'll overclock abit, but I still want it to be 100% stable, how much can I overclock, without destroying the battery life and making it unstable?
#3
Thanks for your opinion, will take it into account.
#4
Uhm, #2 mentioned isdx, what do you say about that?
#5
Hah! yeah probably
afaik ICS has beautiful icons, but maybe gingerdx has as well?
As mentioned, I'd like to overclock abit to increase the performance, so I bet a custom kernel would be good. What would recommend?
and thanks for the quick tutorial, I do know how to root'n'flash tho, since I've done it a ton of time on several other devices
#6
Sorry, I tried to make a quick search in the x8 forums, but I couldnt find a thread about recommended roms for girls
Most ppl recommend GingerDX, so I will probably check that out as well as MiniCM9, since ICS would perhaps be great (If it is stable tho)
She isnt going to play games I can tell for sure, so 3d score doesnt matter I guess. But thanks, will check it out, since it is a girl-made ROM
Amazing fast answers, thanks man! I appreciate any feedback <3
Ics aint stable . I dont reccomand for daily use man. GingerDX or MiniCM7 are just perfect.

ok, first of all take out the battery andd look at the back sticker on the phone(on the phone!!!!!!!!), there will be a number like this 10wxx, 11wxx or 12wxx if it is 11w29+ just forget about unlocking bootloader,so you can not flash custom kernel, if it is 11w29- then look this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24630104&postcount=2 there you will find the links for guides about unlocking bootloader.
have fun!
If you unlock your bootloader and install a custom kernel (Alfs v8a CM7) I'd try GingerZaraki..
Best rom on this forum IMO..

Alfs because team GDX making Alfs kernel too!
MiniCm 7 With Hello Kitty CM7 THEME!
just try Kuyadroid
Kuyadroid is most stable rom,its on stock kernel so you dont need to unlock bootloader !! Its so easy to installing,just need rooted and xrecovery !!
Thanks, I think I have decided to go for GDX with alfs then more opinions are welcomed!

Okay, I have a few final questions.
The script to root x8 require ADB, so I need to install that again (just reinstalled windows), was so complicated.
Isnt SuperOneClick easier? ( This method -> http://www.xperia-x8.com/tutorial-how-to-root-sony-ericsson-xperia-x8/ )
How much is completely SAFE to overclock the x8 with alfs kernel and GDX rom?
About 760 mhz..dont set it on boot.
I dont recommend oc.shorter batery life.

It's sad to watch all these new ROM'S and kernel's here knowing you can't have them because u can't unlock your bootloader....
And ROM'S compactible with stock kernel are sometimes(70% of time)slow.
I've realized that now aftee getting motherboard with date number 12W03
Now I know how it feels...to be limited :'(
Don't think I am complaining because I'm not,I just want to bring back a little development for stock kernel to show us,stock kernel users that we are not forgotten.
With this thread I am asking someone of you developers to make really lightweight,smooth ROM.
I know you are busy with developing for nAa or some other kernel but I think that other stock kernel user,will agree with me.
Sorry for your time and thanks for reading this!
Please don't tell that there are already plenty of good ROM'S for stock kernel user because there are not...no offense....I a just saying that most of them are slow and laggy
GDX ain't slow on stock kernel
I used it though
Except u need some heavy gaming

Well, stock is ungrateful and painful in development. I don't like to re-stock 50 times, root 50 times, put recovery etc. and still don't know what's going on because logcat doesn't even start. So I wouldn't expect so many ROMs.
And hey, it's 2013 adn X8 was released in 2010 so it's like using Celeron 433 MHz now

You are missing something very important mate, X8 come with eclair 2.1, if you are not satisfied with what devs give you then make sth better or don't complain, nobody cares if you feel limited.

Definitely worth a try. But the latest iterations of GingerDX work great. Probably even better when lots of apps are installed. Tho I didn't tried MiniCM6 with the A2SD script I'm using now.

I don't know what you mean by lightweight. GingerDX is pretty standard when it comes to the apps that come with it. Besides anything you don't like can just be uninstalled using Titanium Backup.

i have to agree. no offense to froyopro users, but froyobread seems to be smoother for me. faster too, imho. haven't tried minicm 1.0.X though.
for gb, i think gdx is good. may be the best stock kernel gb rom right now.

No offense gogeta but 2.2 is not supported by some apps. 2.3.7 is supported by almost all apps. It is very stable. almost as fast 2.2 . Difference is there but not much if you don't go into specifics.
BTW @Gogeta which rom & kernel are you using?

I love primeHD . it is flawless
Right now using minicm7 with Oxydo ZCF 04 kernel (nAa kernel has low battery life, I think )
my camera doesn't click photos. plz help.
The reason I switched from primeHD 10 was when I multitasking problem.
I use opera mini. I have unstable Wi-Fi connection. and when I put opera mini in background to connect again , I lose all websites in tabs. (at Max 1 or 2 ). If you know what fix for this, I can happily go back to primehd10.
Prime hd was my first rom on my x8 with naa kernel the most fastest rom... now i m using mini cm7 bcoz prime hd is older if its updated then it would be best rom ever for x8... i recommend u to try prime hd and mini cm7 and stick to any one....

It really depends on what you need.
2.2 is fastest, but it's really outdated. If you have a locked bootloader, then froyo may be your best choice.
2.3, though itself outdated, is still supported by many apps (though you can argue that most of those apps support 2.2 as well).
4.0, i can't say since i never liked ics and only tried a few roms for a bit.
4 1 is tye most updated android version we have right now. Some say it's too slow, but i personally don't think so. Our phone does have very limited ram, but you can either limit your apps installed, use a class 10 sdcard for swap (i prefer zram though), or add some tweaks.
For 2.2 i personally like froyobread and froyopro.
2.3 is gdx (dx's) and minicm 7.
For 4.1 i use yair's rom.
Edit: most people would say gb is the go-to rom regardless if you have a locked bl or not. I suggest you try gb first. :thumbup:
JB all the way for me
Best for X8
hie,
our X8 is a great device , our great developers have made all Android OS to run on it:good : .
but,according to my experience , x8 works best on GB(Android 2.3). its is very stable on GB . Froyo(Android 2.2) is also nice but nowadays there are many apps that require minimum android version of 2.3 . On the other hand ICS & JB(Android 4.0+) are great fr their looks and UI but our X8 just works on 600Mhz processor and 0.25gb ram,therefore JB is not stable and lags a lot on X8.
Conclusion:- You will get best performance and stability on GB for your X8.

If you didn't get your phone 2nd-hand, you probably have a locked bootloader. Don't worry. There are roms for locked bootloaders. Personally, i prefer gingerdx for gb. Froyobread or froyopro for froyo. As long as you don't try to unlock your bootloader if your manufacturing date is 11w29 and up, then the risk is minimal. Search a little and you'll find guides on how to flash roms and/or unlock your bootloader. Good luck. Just read and search and you're safe.
As long as you don't hard brick your phone tryingvto unlock your BL OR flash a wrong kernel you should be safe. Just search a bit. :thumbup:
Here's a good place to start: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=17378137
My advice is read, read, search, and understand.
