[Q] Please help me choose the ROM - Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Please help me decide between 2 ROMS
I can´t decide between iHackers(minimal) and RomAur.
What i want is clean ROM with good battery life.
Can users of there ROMs write here pros and cons.
Thank you so much

No one can do that, its like asking for the best flavour pizza, it is an individual choice.
try them both for a week and see which one YOU like best

Ya i know but i would like to hear something from users....
Btw.....im quite suprised that Z1 has so small development.....its perfect phone

It's new on the market, give xda some time.

Sony phones have less ROMs than other OEM's phones. Stock ROMs here are very stable and less buggy than those of other manufacturers.
Plus, the camera issues with unlocked bootloaders aren't helping any.
Don't worry, with some time, we'll get good ROMs too. Just have a look at the Xperia Z forum.

I tried monxified and romaur.
Monxified is cleaner (maybe too clean lol) and I like the power menu so i stayed with that.

Hello

Well, I'm an x8 user, I'm gonna change the phone in some months and wanna ask if i really should buy this device
I know too much about roms cuz well I'm developing one
I wanna ask you guys, should i use it in stock and then wait for official ics or stock roms suck?
Does this phone really need all the stuff to work smooth? I mean custom kernel, rom etc because well its dualcore phone and looks that in some post i read, my phone works better
Thanks

It's an awesome phone with cm7
well the stock rom it's not the best out there obviously... blatware apps, poor kernel make it a bad choice if you have alternatives.
for me, the best one is CM7, even better with a custom kernel like the Etana one. lots of tweaks and optimizations if you know what i mean

Hi leroy.
I will give you my personal unbiased opinion about it.
I bought the phone and it came with stock froyo (android 2.2). And I thought it was fine. I could play games with no problems at all. Didn't experience any of the problems that lots of people were complaining about (SoD, bad battery life, etc). I "test-drove" it for three weeks more or less, just to make sure everything was working fine, and it was.
And then I flashed temasek's latest kang and vadonka's latest kernel. And I do not regret it one bit. The phone is smoother, more responsive, and battery life is better by at least 25%. Unfortunately I did not do a quadrant benchmark before flashing, so I don't have a before and after comparison, but the phone "feels" much better, no doubts about it.

I tend to believe that what differs from phone to phone is the "bloatware" that carrier dependent phones have installed. I bought an unbranded phone, so I am guessing that is the main reason why I was such a happy customer to begin with, even with stock ROM. A stock unbranded ROM, I might add.

Sorry But i dont know what bloatware mean
sent from my x8 using TecnoBread
My definition of "bloatware" is basically crap software that your carrier (for example vodafone or movistar or whatever) preloads in your branded phone (phone sim locked to your carrier). This software is usually very bad software poorly developed that has memory leakage and drains your battery.
This might be a very biased opinion from me, but usually I like my operating systems to be as clean as possible, only with the software/applications I really need and use. This usually makes for a very fast, responsive and efficient system.

Well, so installing custom rom will replace craping software or just similar unlocking phone?
Also i have hear this is a great phone for developing, but why there's not too much moves as in our threads? Couldn't it be because the phone doesn't need too much developing?
Another question, will official ics fix that or i should upgrade to cm9?

Trust me, the devs for the O2X are awesome. They seriously do great jobs and even create miracles for this device. Just about a month ago, CM9 wasn't available. Many things didn't work, but now thanks to awesome guys like RC and Owain, they made it available to us.
If I were you I wouldn't wait do the official LG release. The GB release was way overdue. LG promised release dates they didn't met and I think this will also happen with ICS. LG said that they would release ICS during the 2nd quarter of this year. I bet that LG won't release it then but probably in 2013 .

I don't know if there is HDMI out or not in CM, because I've never used it while using CM, but it does work fine in MIUI.
And what do you mean by "8 MP is 6 MP"? I thought the resolution just stays the same. Either way, the stock camera app has been ported over to CM7 based roms, and it works just as good as in stock ROM.
Honestly, using MIUI (Wiui to be exact), the experience is alot better, and there is almost no feature sacrificed compared to stock

What you mean?
sent from my x8 using TecnoBread
There are batteries you can buy with more capacity than the stock battery that comes with the phone.
However, I can easily get two day battery life with the stock battery, so personally I don't understand why so many people complain about their battery life. As far as I know it's about the same as other smart phones.

[Poll] Ultimate vs Alliance

I am currently on RocketRom JB v3 but since this will be the final version of RocketRom, I am looking for the next best ROM. So far I know all of the buzz is between Ultimate and AllianceRom.
So I just want a feel of what the community think and I will go with the one everyone think is best.
Go buy an iphone
I think this thread will probably either fall on deaf ears or you will get lots of comments about read both ROM's threads or try both and see what you prefer. You may also get helpful comments like the 1 above.

You should make a summary of the results of the poll.
ultimate is the best TW rom so far ..nothing coms close to it ..ive tried most of the TW jb roms out there but i keep coming back to ultimate,no offense to the devs but my personal choice is ultimate
Ive tried em both, And both are extremely well crafted and run perfectly.
I wouldnt say one is better / worse than the other, they are equally as great in their own way.
The only advice I (as well as many others) can give is: Try them both ! test them for several days and see which performs better FOR YOU.
So these are the two roms that are currently popular huh? Thanks for helping to reduce my reading time. I'm surprised Ultimate is a bit popular than Alliance. But this is good to know.

Thanks for your input, I actually tried Alliance first but for some reason I couldn't get it to work, constant boot loop, spent hours trying different ways to get it work but no cigar. I am currently trying out Ultimate, I am rather happy with it. I will follow your advice and try alliance rom again but probably after a few weeks of using Ultimate.
Thanks to everyone who contributed into this, by the looks of it, both Ultimate and Alliance comes really close and it is almost split in the middle of what the community thinks.
don't compare any rom on this forum, every rom has a plus and minus, you want to know what is the best one? try it yourself, and what rom seems match for you, because if you ask people here of course they have a much reason for himself why he choose "that" rom.
Thanks.

And that is what I am after, what majority of the people think is the rom "they" like best. Maybe I shouldn't of worded it as Ultimate Vs Alliance but what I want to know is statistically which rom is most popular. If people actually read the thread they should know this is what I was after at the very beginning.
Look in the development sections and see which thread have the most replies / views, they are mainly the most popular
Some have issues with Alliance, I had some myself, frequent bootloops, sticking on GT-N7000 screen and so on, but with a bit of tinkering I fixed it.
Now im using Ultimate, and it satisfies my every need, So im sticking with it Its Fast, Stable, Smooth, Rarely gets laggy and is frequently updated which is a main USP for me, I like the fact that the Dev listens to the users and is always improving on it.
But as the rest say, just try them all.. There are some wicked AOSP ROMs out there too so dont focus all your attention on TW JB Leaks, Unless thats what you prefer ?

[Q] Just bought this phone!

Hello there XDA!
I have just bought this phone after realising that I just can't stand the terrible piece of thing, HTC Desire Z anymore. Saw the unveiling of the S4 and wasn't too impressed and decided to just get the S3.
I haven't got the S3 yet though, will receive it sometime in the next 2-3 days.
Anyway, got a two questions here..
1) Why are there very little support for the I9305 version of the S3 on XDA compared to the I9300? (Android Development sub-forum, by the way) I was going to get the I9300 because of this but the store I went to didn't have them anymore. I really am planning to have this phone for a long time but the lack of support here worries me.
2) What is the best mod and ROM to use on the device? I will be rooting this. I'm looking for a smooth experience using the device as well as a quite decent battery life. I want to know the general opinions on here on which is the best rom.
That's all folks! Thanks in advance for answering my questions.

Nexus 4 had no removable storage and the Xperia Z is a tad bit overpriced here so, S3 was the way to go. Plus the specifications on the S3 is good enough for me especially the screen size, I don't really need a 1080p screen.
Thanks anyway!
If you want a Stock ROM but optimised, go for Wanamlite.
CyanogenMOD is AOSP so you'd lose some Samsung features and the camera isn't as great.
BTW, great to see more Bruneians here on XDA!
I'm on ripper rom themed with domination. OC'ed to 1.5 with yank kernel.
Getting 5.30h on screen time heavy use.
I tried cyanogen on my normal 9300 but battery time : waaaay too weak. +lots of lag.
So don't really like it.

the second question is against the rules.
You will love the s3 lte and from my experience the best ROM for overall is pandoriam which has a lot to offer in terms of performance and customization with all the goodies from stock.
Anyways enjoy one of the best phones on the market if not the best!

It's not a matter of specifications, the specs are good enough. The problem is that Samsung don't support the developers by releasing the source code they need in order to properly port CyanogenMod and AOSP-based ROMs to their devices. What this means is that devices with an Exynos4 processor, such as our lovely I9305s, will never get officially stable CyanogenMod or any other AOSP-based ROMs like ParanoidAndroid or AOKP, there are just too many blanks to fill. With an Exynos4-based device you can expect to live with graphics glitches, higher than normal battery drain from modem, and no project butter support. Presuming Samsung doesn't eventually release the source (seeming more and more unlikely now that the Exynos4 isn't even their top-of-the-line processor).
Yeah, I can see how that's a problem. I think the same thing happened with Desire Z where HTC did not give out the source code for the camera or something..

Ok, so his question was against the rules, but the responses weren't necessarily. The second one didn't say what was the best, it said what the poster was using.
Factual information about a ROM is very different than pure speculation about what's the best.
Did it really make your life worse having those two helpful posts on this thread for the guy?

[Q] Buy a Razr i or not?

Hi, i would buy today a Razr i. I'm a flashaholic, i read that for intel cpu is hard to develop. I flash custom roms weekly.
I chose it because it has a good performance in small dimensions. My expectations is a small and fast device.
Would you guys recommend to buy a phone like that?

Thank you guys. I bought one yesterday. I had to solve the battery draining issue like in this video: http://youtu.be/lgGDxZstgm0
But after that everything seems good now.
I would say no. There are plenty of phones with way more dev support.

If you are a flasher, well, no :/
I use to be a flasher with a galaxy ace, so i buy this phone, but because the unique processor, theres not to much development :/
But the phone with stock its awesome, even i feel it more fast and powerfull than a S3 or Xperia Z, i have both phones
And the battery amazing!
Enviado desde mi XT890 usando Tapatalk 2
It depends.
If you're a flashalcoholic because you want the best of your phone in a fully customized way I'd say yes maybe: stock is already very well made and there's a few great mod/rom to improve it. Theming is certainly not on a CM rom level, but still there's a few mods.
If you're a flashalcoholic for the sake of geeking with your phone and try new stuff very often the answer is no. As previously said, development is quite confidential, and the risks of bricking this phone is also quite high (for noobs like me may I add; I miss my old Xperia easy panic restore).
Otherwise the phone itself is awesome if it fits your needs: well built, compact, great performance and battery life, I'd would not trade it for any other phone.
I used to flash like crazy on my older phones and got this because I knew it would be less possible to do so. That said, I have still found plenty to play with and enough development exists to play around on weekends without modifying something every night.
Aside from that - best form factor for me in terms of size/battery life compared to any other phone I've picked up.
Thank you guys for your reply. :highfive:

[Q] Are you happy with your xperia sp?

Had my xperia sp for a couple of weeks and am very surprised by how dreadful the stock ROM was. I came from a GalaxyS2 that was smooth running stock and amazing with the plethora of custom ROMs. I did a little research before choosing the phone and saw a couple of gripes here and there but a lot more positive reviews. I am very surprised that there are not a lot of threads starting here with "this phone sucks balls"!
The lags around the system are shocking and having to press the touch screen four times for before it eventually responds a second or two later to all four touches! Not good Sony.
Is my phone broke? I don't think so, although crippled by an unlockable boot loader, as the cm10.2 for locked bootloader does fix it.
So are you happy with yours?
Your phone is not broke?
I too came from a Galaxy S2 and changed for the battery life and 4g capability.
Also have a locked bootloader so feel hamstrung as I always had Slimsaber on my phone.
Currently on Existenz which is an improvement over stock.

Eh...sort of. At times I do feel really happy with it, but some days I just want to get rid of it. I constantly plan on switching it for a Moto X, but then I find few features that make me wonder if it's really worth the investment. Right now, I'm quite happy running stock rooted rom with few Xposed tweaks, which I never tried before.
i'm not happy because of update that sony gave was terrible :')
i hope sony will give the kitkat update for SP to fix the sh*t, to to add more sh*t
Not happy. I will probably sell phone under price...
- .254 battery life s#cks
- .266 lag, lag, lag
- .201 still lag but little better than .266
Bad camera, not greatest build quality...
After 5-8 years of using Sony/Sony Ericsson phones this is the worst one! I need to buy something else but i dont know which phone should i buy.
Using custom rom Carbon(kit kat version) and quite happy with it. I think it could be better. Battery life is the ONLY thing that i concern. Already used latest .201 stock and not happy with it. Will use SP at least for a year more. :fingers-crossed:
Sometimes im happy with my phone because it can play more games plus hd screen compared to my previous SE android phonetbut im very much disappointed with the camera and sometimes it lags.

Happy compared to my Old Samsung Galaxy S Plus (horrible device.... but great ROM support better than here with the Xperia SP....).
Sometimes I just dont like the way Sony is handeling this device. Delaying updates and now even rejecting Kitkat? It is lame.. But I get use to it.....

Well, Sony Xperia SP is definitely the BEST phone in its price category. That everybody have to agree.
I know the stock firmware is not well optimised , but... hey I used to own a Samsung Galaxy Y before , so anything is better than that low end smartphone.
It's been a pleasure and pain for me.
When it runs well, it's amazing.
Smooth, good looking, very capable capable hardware .
Other times, it's a dog! Hanging, slow loading with app crashes.
I got mine to replace a Moto G that I destroyed accidentally. Pleased and disappointed with it at the same time.
Come on Sony. Please fix the issues that some people are having with this excellent phone!
Im a lot happier now im on Ultimate PureXSP v2, 201 stock should be as smooth as this ROM!
Sent from my C5303 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Well i used SP for like 6 months. I loved my experience. But due to exams approaching, i had to switch to a larger device and ended up getting Z Ultra. Kit Kat is horrendous compared to 4.3 so i'd suggest you guys not to dream about it. Maybe 4.4.3 will be better. But for now i'll stick to 4.3 as it is much smoother and faster. I kinda miss my SP though. It was lovely

Sent from my C5303 using Tapatalk 2
Every version of stock ROM is extremely laggy, has problems like bad RAM, very unresponsive touchscreen, freezing, etc. That's why I use CyanogenMod 10.1(UB) which is extremely fast and has no problems at all.
I suggest buy Oneplus One
better phone with new CM11s

What ROM are you on? Have a locked bootloader and very limited in ROMs. Even found the modified stock ones are only marginally better. Cyanagen for locked bootloader has saved my phone from imminent death!

I'm running Vanir AOSP android 4.4.2 but it's only for UBL
Unhappy with xperia sp
the back cover is squeaking, android stock is so laggy and full of bugs, camera is the worst. the sd mount for games is not permited, only for pictures and music.
the good is in the games in some games xperia sp is faster.
i think change my xperia sp for nexus 5,galaxy s3 or moto g.
i am very disappointed for sony and this phone.
