[Q] Fastest rom (+battery saving)?

What is the fastest rom for X8 with stock kernel? Should also be battery saving and not ram consuming, but most important: FAST
I dont need a very good looking rom with fancy widgets and lots of functions or setting, just fast and battery saving
Cheers...

PrimeHD i think

For fast and battery saving , use froyo ROMS like froyobread/froyopro

Thanks, i'll flash primehd tomorrow as you wrote: "there is going to be v5.4 for all kernels, I will finish up my last checkings and upload the files tomorrow."
So i dont have to flash 5.3 today and 5.4 tomorrow
Just to be sure....i just have to boot into cwm, do a full wipe and install primehds53 (or tomorrow primehds54) and then reboot and let it boot into primehd?
I'm asking this because there is a hotfix file too and somewhere i read that i have to install google apps and i dont know if the hotfix file is ment or not?!
thanks in advance........i'm really looking forward to using primehd
Cheers...

Getting back to 2.3 from ICS

Hey, I wanna to get back to 2.3 from MiniCM9 (nAa) and I don't know If I should first change kernel to standard, or first ROM to 2.3. Can somebody tell me?

First change rom to 2.3 then flash the appropriate kernel.
I don't think it really makes a difference, just that one is slightly less risky than the other.

Kernel then rom, if it's rom 1st then you MIGHT have to reflash the rom anyway

No need for reflash of rom in any circumstances... point is entering flash mode to flash correct kernel is much more doable and likelier to succeed than entering a kernel embedded recovery to flash a rom.
Hence rom first, then kernel.

Hmm... Who to trust?
I'm curently on nAa ICS kernel and his MiniCM9, and want to get back to Achotjan Semc Debrand Engine 2.3 with nAa 11 kernel

From my experience there is no difference at all because the kernel you wanna flash has a recovery and gives you the option to flash your rom. For example when I wanted to revert back to stock without using seus I flashed the rom first and then the kernel because if I did otherwise my device would be softbricked. I hope I made my self clear. The choice is up to you. But I like flashing the kernel first;-)

Ok, so I tried now with kernel first -> that doesn't work, now I'm going to check with rom first

you cant build a house without foundation! flashing the kernel first is only proper way to do this!

1.put 2.3 Rom in SD
2.flash a kernel
3.on 1st boot(at kernel logo)push back button rapidly to enter cwm
4.make a full wipe and install 2.3 rom
5.done

[ROM][Stock GB 2.3.7]Stock Apanda rom

Here's the stock Apanda rom Android GB 2.3.7. I couldn't know anything about this rom as it won't let me pass the lockscreen. Lockscreen was similar to the spice stock rom. Don't know if it is any different.
Mod : edit removed this link
I flashed it but seems like the touch screen is not compatible with Spice mi 410.
[Edit] Flash 0.35 kernel(sharp/tj) to make touchscreen work -> Thanks to Abenagiel.
This didn't seem to be any better than sharp rom.
Before flashing this rom be sure to backup your imei. Me and Demonskill had problems of unknown imei number when we flashed the rom and tried to revert back using cwm restore. My personal suggestion, before you do cwm restore make sure to flash tj's rc3. Find more info about imei backup using 5iromtoolbox take a look at post by http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28096182&postcount=3. Thanks to LibertyMonger
Steps to flash this rom:
(1) Go to download mode and Flash this rom via SUT.
(2) Go to download mode and place the recovery.img from tj_style for the new kernel 0.35
(3) Place this 0.35 sharp kernel on sd card https://www.dropbox.com/s/c2myh6s2kgb9wi6/sharp_Kernel.zip
(4) Flash the zip via recovery.
Mirrors for the rom, recovery and 0.35 kernel can be found in the post. Thanks to aloklike- MOD edit: removed link
MOD EDIT : ok guys and the OP
i see a lot of problems i think for the safety of all i am closing this thread and removing the links. if everything is ok PM me and ill open this thread

how stable is this stock rom running on other. 35 kernels like mia and rc3?

very stable no fc no bugs for me with the kernel im using, camera & camcorder still zooms.. just use another launcher and get rid of all the bloatware/5keyboards

Guess I will have to try this, hope it is more stable than Sharp ROM. Sharp ROM has been rebooting and just had an awful freezeup while playing a basic game. Lost sensor functionality and had to pull battery. I have no luck with any ROM really wish we had one "go-to ROM" that is fully stable.

Actually this ROM is for K41 devices, not for FB0/1/3 devices. But since K41 devices is using similiar hardware with FB0, so this ROM is still compatible with our devices

[PRO][KERNEL] Riyal-based kernel with better touchscreen precision & SE logo

Hi, this is my first kernel, this based on the latest Ultima ICS kernel from riyal, with two minor tweaks
-now touchscreen reponse while swiping is 4px instead of 9px, so no more bumpy movements while draging items
-official "Sony Ericsson" boot logo
Information about the touchscreen problem (if you have not noticed it):
http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/40474
the problem is present in latest FXP (but probably not in next's) and also in stock kernel ICS
The solutions was 99% done by nicklas lof, here:
http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#/c/22164/
Works in Stock ICS, 431 and 587, it should work with FXP releases too
Installation:
Flash kernel using fastboot
Flash original Riyal wifi Modules using CWM
Riyals kernel thread is here
I do not deserve any credits on this, I just moved a line in code to compile and changed logo. :good:

What is Stock ICS 538? or you mean 587

the recovery are same or did u update it too ?

I have to install the img with fastboot ... And I have everything right???

Thanks for this kernel. will give it try one of these days

New Kernel for PRO [MK16a/i]
Thanks dafsoftware :good:
So just to clarify. Everything is the same as Ultima ICS Kernel v1.4 with the changes you made for the touchscreen precision and SE-X logo. The WiFi modules to flash are also of the v1.4 too right?
I'll try this when you confirm my query, as I am running on the Stock ICS MK16a 4.1.B.0.587 (US) build. I'll try to post any issues that I come across after flashing
[email protected]

You are right, this is based in Ultima ICS v1.4, in fact Riyal already has this in his sourcecode, so next's versión should already have this fix, you have to use v1.4 modules

I think GB was 2px, but with the current driver is quite hard to tap on links at 2px, I will compile one at 2px if you want to try

I use this kernel with stock ICS 587 and my phone gets freeze every time I unplug from charger and PC.
Anyone has the same problem?

Can you please update stock kernel to use this fix.
Or give some link to add recovery to stock kernel.
Thanks,
Rajesh

This is based on latest riyal changes, I think it has voltages messed up, so I will have to build it from stock kernel someday. I dont know how to add recovery to it.

I am, but not exactly when disconnecting the charger, only when its charging and very randomly, I think the source I am using has a messed up voltage table, I need to find the original voltage tables to fix it.

OK - after reading more it sounds like there has been some structural change to the driver model (something that needs fixed at a deeper level). Anyway, it would be great if you could additionally provide us with a ROM set at 2px just so we can see for ourselves.

Ext4
Does this kernel support the Ext4 partition? Great kernel by the way...
Edit : and.... Swap partition?

Even better than that, I notice that the Touch Move app has a "tune" mode which allows the user to tune the sensitivity themself. It's currently only compatible with a couple of GSII custom kernels:
http://tegrak2x.blogspot.co.uk/2011/10/touch-move-tune-compatible-kernels.html?m=1
It would be interesting to see if we could get Touch Move Tune working on Xperia devices too.

my phone is unlocked using htc dev but still s on.. so this steps u shared is for s on or s off

*deleeeted*

No you can't flash kernel through recovery if you htcdev unlocked since \boot is write protected. You have to fastboot flash it. There is a guide for htcdev unlocked phones in the kernel thread
