Haha, don't be so tough. There is a list in general section if I remember clearly. Please. Search

Ok please stop guys Its out of the topic.
GingerCruzt, XGIN and GDX is really worth a try for stock.

U can try kuyadroid 4.5.4. It's very stable and fast.
Orignal gingerbred look and awesome performance.
I already tried gingerdx ang gingerxperia, but i like it most because it is simple and fast.
Go for it

Froyobread. Almost bugless IMO. Fast + Nice features.
Or GingerDX! It's bugless GingerBread ROM with the features of FroyoBread and 3MP camera! Also MiniCM7 is nice and for everyday use!

I use MiniCM7 and I really apreciate it.
A lot of features as OC and Undervolt, a lot of possibilities. After a little configuration I also got a nice battery time, I'm really satisfied with it
great

I've tried FroyoBread and GingerDX. Both are smooth and fast.
I used the latest version of FroyoBread and v008 and v010 for GingerDX.
Try them.
cool

ginger dx v011 i have used both froyobread and ginger dx. And in my opinion ginger dx wins in so many ways. I dont use gdx v012 because of doixanh removed map's and i use this app alot.
but they are both very good fast and smooth.
with doixanh you cant go wrong

Tips and clarifications

Hello everyone! I would like to install a rom in my x8 but, having no time to test all the roms, and I would like one that is stable, fast, best play and long battery life.
I saw the topic of rom these five that look very interesting:
- Gingercrutz
- GingerDX
- GingerXperia
- Kuyadroid
- MiniCM7
I have read and reread the various topics of the rom, but they seem to be similar, and I do not know which one to choose between these five.
Among these five who do you recommend? I want a rom that once installed does not have to always update.
Sorry for my English.
Its all up to you which rom you like the most, there is no better rom all roms are good, so its up to decide which rom you like....just try them and see its only 15 minutes to install......
P.S. I like GC7.4 the mmost but its only me
Sent from my Shakira using XDA App
GingerCruzt! Faster than GDX, good battery performance, Xperia look, nice for games!
BTW all those ROMs are stable.
Thanks to all. I installed GingerCrutz 7.4

Great rom, very nice and seems light. But other versions will come out?
Yes they should....developer of this rom is.busy but when he get some time we will have new version... If you asking me this version is so perfect that it dont need any update....

true but why It usually lags when playing accelerometer games for example abduction 2 ?
What can i say...there is no perfect rom...

Can you solve this problem ?
Try to search forum for some fix

I have found a fix for GingerDX. It works with GingerCrutz ?

[Q] Lockscreen text remaining from Froyobread (Doixanh)

Hi, ever since I upgraded from Doixanh's Froyobread to GingerDX , there has been a text bothering me in the lockscreen. I remember editing the lockscreen text in Froyobread settings but it seems to have disappeared in GingerDX. Yes I know I could flash froyobread and then back , but would all my kernel and custom rom settings e.t.c be saved ? So my question is, how do I remove these?
Any help would be VERY greatly appreciated....
I'm kinda a noob, but I know a lil' bit..
I have alfs Kernel v08.
!
Please can someone reply and help me..:/
What does the text say? It might give us a clue..

The "copyright branding" is compiled into the framework (but that's no secret at all). While it's possible to remove it from the fully built ROM it's not easy, and I don't think anyone will tell you as it's there for a reason.
you changed your rom without erasing the data?
GDX version 21.3?
Sent from my X8 using xda premium
edit android_policy.jar (i remember that, just try.. i don't know..)
enter xrecovery. fullwipe
Hi everyone, I meant no disrespect to Doixanh, I love his work, but what I meant was, I had set a custom lockscreen message in froyobread. I was afraid that I might lose important things when uprgrading from froyobread>gingerdx
I am NOT trying to remove the copyright logo.
Sent from my X8 using xda premium
Yes I did, since I figures that since it is made by the same developer, it wouldn't make any difference. and it didn't, aside from this.
Sent from my X8 using xda premium
And If I do a full wipe, will I not lose everything? If so, is there any way to restore some of the important stuff?

NO way
no way even on 2.2 and 2.3, you can install it but never get it work because of the hardware limitation
you need ARMV7 CPU to make it work and the X8 is an ARMV6 phone

Multi touch disability..
So i have just rooted up my phone and install xrecovery 0.1 sucessfully

I like ICS and Jelly beans both..
Is there any custom rom among both of them which i can use....
Please suggest me...

Well since you've just install xRecovery i assume you are using stock kernel.So i suggest you to use GingerDX v028b.
You've been joining XDA for about a year now but why did you post your question in Themes & App section.You should post your question in Q&A section.Please read the forum rules!!

Install GZR!
your device is on stock kernel so put gingerbread rom/froyo ,its more stable....cause jelly bean and ics are not stable though on custom kernel.
