For those who are unfortunate about not unlocking their x8 with 11w30 and above/.... i have a question for u
im on stock kernel and rom and lock bootloader
sorry for asking but i cant seem to find answer if i can change my stock kernel to one of the stock kernel offering of other dev and change my rom to custom rom ??
if yes can u suggest a good rom with good battery life ans stable for everyday use i prefer GB THANKS
Well, stock kernel is stock because you cannot use the cutom ones offered by other devs. This, however, does not prohibit you the use of cutom roms, you only have to use the ones that support the stock kernel option.
As for the roms, well, check out the sticky in general section for a comprehensive list of various ROMs and their supported kernels (look for stock kernel in the kernels list).
<shameless_plug>I, personally, use GingerDX, a fast, smooth and really nice in overall rom</shameless_plug>

unlock your bootloader =P
So I just got a Galaxy Note N-7000 from my dad,and it is already rooted,
but I'm looking to replace my ROM so I have a few questions (hope this is the right place to open this thread in,if not - sorry in advance):
1.Can anyone recommend a JB based rom with nice (not the most important factor to me) design,that mainley runs smooth and FC-free?
[Also very important to me - I need something I can install hebrew on)
2.Does anybody know any JB based roms that have full hebrew support?
[This is the only one I have found :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2208589
and I'm not so sure about it,any feedbacks for pros&cons for this ROM will be greatly appreciated. ]
Thank you!

Welcome!
That is a nice TW (stock samgsung software) based rom, with some tweaks and a diferent kernel you can make it really fast.
On the other hand, as you said you want it to look good I'd recommend you to use VengeanceNote TW, as it's MIUI over the TW base. It is fast. It is beautiful. I'm not sure about the hebrew support tough, you might want to head to the thread and ask there. The dev, Gerrett, is preetty nice and wil most definitely help you as much aas he can.
If you want to use an AOSP ( Google software ) I'd most definitely recommend you Asylum + NX Kernel. This is as fast as my note has ever been. Don't worry about everyone on the thread being crazy tough. Thay are nice after you get used to them
Anyway, good luck with your phone You'll love it

First of all - thank you very much for your quick comment
It's good to meet nice and kind people like you! :good:
Second of all - about that VenganceNote TW - it looks very nice but I had a very bad experience with MIUI on my old SGS,
tons of FC and sometimes I coulden't take calls.
Do you know if this one is stable?
Also,do you know anything about this one ? :

You're lucky then, I had FC on all ROMs i've used on my SGS
I've used VengeanceNote for a long time. It is very stable indeed. Only problem i could remember is that it had a duplicated root manager app, but if you opened the right one you would have no problem at all. I'm just waiting for a custom kernel to support it so i can jump back to it.
Never used Carbon Rom itself, but from what i've experienced with this all-in-one roms, they're not very stable.
I'd say if you're interested on AOSP Asylum is the way to go. It's really clean and fast. And if you don't like the all black look you can always install CM10 themes

I think that would be great,as I said I'm looking for a fast,clean ROM and Asylum sounds perfect,
just 2 more small questions:
1.About that kernel you've recommended,is it mendatory to install with Asylum or I can just stick with my PhilZ kernel ?
2.I would love it if you could explain to me how to install some CM10 themes and where to get them !

Nop, you can use phlz for flashing, but Asylum will overwrite it with CM10 kernel. But i recommend flashing NX after you flashed the rom. It has OC support and GPU clock control. It makes things really smooth.
About the themes you can get them on play store or on some threads here on xda. A quick google search for "CM10 theme" will show you lots of results.

It won't work if I flash the Asylum and after it overwrites it with CM10 kernel I flash the PhilZ kernel? (Instead of NX)

As far as i know philz is for TW only, so it won't work.
Any specific reason you want to stick with it?

Ummm,actually no,my dad just recommended it to me he said PhilZ is one of the best kernels developers out there,
and that its very safe to use his recovery (maybe I didn't understand correctly but I heard there was a problem some time ago with
ICS kernels/wiping or something,and that this phone got bricked once because of that)
He also said speedmod is great,but I dunno that guy or his kernels lol.

Indeed he's a great dev, and he saved many of us from bricking our devices
On stock samsung kernels, there's a bug, that when you wipe your data partition on recovery it corrupt's the memory chip, rendering it useless. So if you are going to use stock roms on your phone, either don't wipe or stick to safe kernels.
On the other hand, the AOSP kernels don't show such behaviour and are generally safe. So if your going with Asylum, don't worry. You're safe.

No, unfortunatelly you can't add thos features on any AOSP rom. Neither those nor Snote and other TW apps.
VengeanceNote include them tough. Seems you have to make your choice
No problem man I felt lost when i've changed my phone, and if someone haven't made the same thing for me i would have probably bricked it

First of all, every custom rom (based on custom kernel) requires an unlocked bootloader and as the bootloader unlock breaks the camera that functionality will be lost in each and every custom rom until Sony fixes the issue.

Yeah there are a few, under android development section that only require root.
monxDIFIED has been one of my fav's since Xperia Z
Bump, same question as topic.
My wifes z1c has camera and battery issues, i need a rom that just works, no bells or wistless, just that it works, all of it. Besides that, battery is the second most important thing.
Any advice on ROM, kernel, mods etc?

If you don't want to unlock your bootloader, follow my link below for a stable custom rom runs at .157. It's my favorite ROM of all and i also included in beta testing so i rest assure its a good ROM
i've an unlocked Bootloader ! running under IHackers 6.2 (kitkat) and everything work just fine ! battery is realy good & have stock camera !
hoping that they develope a Lolipop Rom !

nice. well he's just waiting for a good person to donate some for his Z1 so he can continue the project.
For kitkat, id recommend iHackers,
For lollipop i recommend rockZ1L,
For costum ROM, i recommend ressurection remix, ive tried it and its pretty stable for daily use.

Hi guys i'm quite new to z1 and I'm looking for a .290 based rom, which one will u guys recommend me??
I'm looking for high performance, deodex, and maybe some cool tweak. Hope i can remain the original interface since it looks cool enough for me
I dont care about battery life for now since it's enough.
Thankyou
(incase u guys think that i'm lazy to test each of them myself, yeah i admit i am :laugh: , but hope if u can give me recommendation for a start )
read dev section. flashing is not that easy.
there are not many roms, choose from nuts, monx or ihackers.
As the Sony Xperia Z1 is kind-of-new, there aren't too many ROMs for it. Devs are working on some issues about unlocking bootloader and firmwares. I suggest waiting for them to do their job, cheer them up and consider make a donation. In my case I'm looking forward to use MIUI on my Xperia Z1.
It's all a matter of preference.
I've got Doomkernel installed and I'm constantly switching between monx and ihackers roms.
There are bits I like from each of them that the other doesn't have.Still haven't decided which one to settle on just yet.
As suggested, best way is to just flash, use it and flash again and find one that you like.

The best combo for me is: Stock .290 rom, rooted with Doom kernel v.6 (unlocked bootloader) and use Xposed with Gravity Box
Thanks guy
and i'm not 100% noob
got experience with Xperia S before
i'm using the jellyslim rom, the guy did a really great job, first 4.3 rom i can use without problems and lags.
it's not deodexed for now, but the dev said he will release and deodexed version soon.
other than that the rom is perfect.
It's a new device so recommend a rom at the moment it's not recommended. :laugh:
Been using Monx's rom since the off with the 4.4 launcher from the Nexus and it's superb, no problems at all.
Hi, I'm new here and I have some questions since here on Brazil we do not have a deticated "blog" like XDA.
I have a Z3 Compact on MM 23.5.A.1.291, and I want to change de ROM, Root it, recovery, maybe change the kernel.... I really need a good camera, keep the DRM key if possible, but i can't keep it on CyanogenMod 12.
The question is, How can I put on my device the best ROM (CM12), the Best Camera, he Best Baterry, the best UI, etc, since I have a Stock Sony Device? Step by step if possible. Thanks.
Mr. Bruno Stangarlin.
Hi, I'm also from Brazil. CM just isn't stable enough for daily use. Take a look at Paranoid Android, but camera is broken there too.
I would recommend installing Concept rom. It's built by Sony, is almost like Nexus (apart from the camera interface), and is the most clean and stable rom we have. You can find it in the general section of our device and install it with flashtool. Feel free to PM me or ask here for details.
