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

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.
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

Achotjan Semc Debrand Engine:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1500515
or [ROM] LinuXperia Escha Arch V7
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1363033
+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

Hi, this is my first post.
I'm currently using gingerxperience. This is a beautiful rom. However,it is a bit unstable. I want to ask that which android rom is better running on x8. Is 2.2 better than 2.3? Can you suggest some 2.2 rom or 2.3 rom? I'm sorry with my poor English.
GingerDX and miniCM7 are both good and a stable ROM in my opinion. And using SWAP and overclocking your phone is a good method to create higher performance and make a smoother phone.

Honestly Froyo is better , faster and stabler...
Froyobread or Froyopro are two good options.

We can't suggest you any rom,all you need is in dev section. Try for yourself and decide what suits you better

What the other users posted is true..
You cant just say which rom is good or not.
Just step forward and try it and see it yourself..
Just taste custom kernal at your choice.....start with original development roms
Officially corp via w8
GingerDX , MiniCM and Gingerzaraki , are the most used.

Froyobread - stability and performance on stock kernel
If u want stability + stock kernel, the best choice is froyobread (much more ram and good performance). Everything is working perfectly, like stock.
PS.: it will be better if u dont install unused apps on it, and configure it correctly, like on all roms, include stock. Search more if u have doubts about one "bug". Every rom is good in one aspect and not so much in other.
Search, read, and test, it is my opinion, your will b different.
[edit]Camera: works perfectly (photo and video) like stock just on froyo roms, gingerbread have lowest quality on photos (not so much) and video lag a bit some times (not so much too).
I dont see big diferences, gingerbread is good too (not perfect like stock)
Keep in mind: Custom Roms have issues, bigs, and smalls
