this overview just for information on my problem i had this not mean something is better. all devs make great work and i thank you for it.
i just want help people who still have problem with something to look at what took me long time to find rom working best for me and maybe them.
excuse my english please. if some people have sugestion what need added please write in topic here.
Thanks for your post, for sure will make noob's lifes (like mine, lol) a lot easier.
The GinTonic SE is the best rom i have use. This Very Stable and Fast!
I use all this rom with ZombieKernel and for me, GinTonic is the best.
GinTonic Rocks!!! Especially with ZP Kernel
How long is battery life of GinTonic?
Both GingerDX 17 and Enyama:s last ROM Flame.E 0.2 (Beta) are all very good, Gintonic too, i tried them all with slade87:s kernel Zombie Panic 1.63.
So far my favourite is Eyamas Flame.E 0.2 (Beta), stable, fast and no fc.
But some phones seems to like different ROMS, så whats great for me is maybe not the best for you.... It is a strange world we live in

Nice comparison! try putting Advantages vs disadvantages of each ROM.. cause for some the definition of a "good stable ROM" varies.. advantages and disadvantages should help them....
Gintonic is not the only rom where whatsapp works. My whatsapp does not FC on any rom except gingerdx and roms based on gingerdx. I think all the roms have the positives and negatives and are all really well done and deserve a lot of credit however I still feel that the clean rom by pfonck and the old froyo roms such as sRom, froyobread and so on are all more stable with better battery life. I think however out of the new roms that Gintonic is slightly ahead, can't wait till it gets even better.
on wich roms multitouch is installed by default?
certainly gintonic!! it just rocks!
I tested fully both MiniCM7 and GinTonic,
from my own experiences both are equally capable, perhaps GinTonic is more accurate and has a bit more options.
As of current date both the roms are stable and bug free, it's just a matter of taste. MiniCM7 is now based on CMWRecovery 4 wich can be a great advantage but try every rom and find what suits you most since all of them are great (and we should be forever thankful for all the good devs out here pushing our phones to the best)
as of GingerDX I didn't play with it much, somehow didn't fell in love with it
my advice is to install and see what suits you, remember to back up your stuff and factory wipe!
I've used MiniCM7Pro before, it good for gaming but the battery is draining fast, I have to charge 2-3 a day. I currently use GinTonic without the kernel, but it's a bit slow for me, 2d games lagged a lot, even when I used Performance CPU governor, but I'm impressed on how it saves my battery now I only charge once a day.
Is there any way to make my phone run faster on Gintonic?
I've used V6 Supercharger and ended up stuck on the bootscreen.
can someone post here the latest overview about our x10 mini pro ROM's
I have i the last week tryed
GingerDX v21 and V21b by doixanh. Stable and works fine.
StornMix V2 by TheCuteCriminal. Nice mms works on this.
miniCM7 Pro by paul-xxx. I like it alot. Most power efficient of them all.
BUT there is one thing they all miss. Thats hardware keyboard language change support. It all whent into the fan after going from v17 to v21. Now mini rom manager dont work or install. Paul have it in the rom but it dont work.
Regarding most of the look and feel of the rom is due to the launcher. Wish one you use. I like ADW lancher but lancherPRO is nice to and the theme also have alot to do with how you like the phone so try around and find your favorite.

so which do you recommend sir???
MiniCM7 Pro
-sometimes fast, sometimes slow but still good
-2D for me lagging sometime but not bad
-no rotate touchscreen fix
-issue with wifi often (helped replace tiwlan_drv.ko from gintonic maybe works to for you)
-for me lots small issues like market not app download (mainly issue with not working apps like should, did clean install)

For me... she is quite smooth.
-2D and 3D performance is epic thats thanks to the modded EGL driver.
-No issues with rotate screen.
-have not tested Wifi
-damn stable for me.
I'm running nAa kernel @ 800MHz
with no lags or burps.
As a matter as a fact i'm using comp-cache at 35%
I'm a heavy user "games and online forum browsing till the battery dies."
I would like to say miniCM7 PRO. And if you roll back to V20 hardware keyboard changer will work. For us without english layout

I finding a ROM that you'll think is best for xperia x10 mini. Help me to pick up one,
ROM With:
Long Battery Life
Fast,
Easy to manage
good theme
i think IRIDIUM ROM by Dark_dog will be perfect for you(except for the Purple theme!!!!)
USE MINE! USE MINE! LOL
I agree, Iridium ROM is sweet - fast and since I like purple it's ALLLL GOOOD
I do have have a couple of ROMs in my signature (Just finished Green Android) which does run fast
Xperia X8
your rom's works on a xperia x8 ?

Ummm... I don't think so - there is different screen resolution for a start which would probably cause issues with the replacement files fir JIT.
I haven't tried as I haven't got one but if you are famulier with SEUS and feeling brave then give it a try!!!
BTW: I am not responsible if this is put onto an X8 since it hasn't been tested!
I'm currently switching between Manny's Xtreme Theme and Shiv's Gingerbread Nexus S edition, they are both really nice looking themes.
(I think Gingerbread is a bit more stable/quicker, and has a nicer battery icon in the notification bar, it also has a cool little android in the pull down notification menu.. its the little details)
but Manny's Xtreme theme has really beautiful Application Menu's (like in launcher pro when you press the menu button you get the box at the bottom and all the icons are colored and look really sweet.. )
yes, Iridium Rom is fast.. (but for your average user not really that functional, as it is too customised to one user's taste.. once you start installing your own widgets, home launcher, and apps its becomes just as slow as any other Rom. (I have tested this with Linepack and Quadrant)
This is just my personal opinion and of course everyone has their own taste's the only way you can get a Rom/theme perfect for you is to either make it yourself or combine several existing ones and take what you like from each (which is what I might do with Gingerbread and Xtreme because I really cant decide which little features I can live without)
Good luck.. and have a play, with xRecovery its so easy to switch and swap (just make a backup in xRecovrey first so you can always revert)

Hmm,
after ~50apps and several widgets, i still get 7600+ in linpack and 600 in quadrant.
Overall experience is still fast.
So what is your setup?

Hey D_d
I have switched back to Shiv's Gingerbread nexus S Theme at the moment.. but please don't take my comment the wrong way.. I'm just trying to point out its not just the Rom that effects speed.. its a combination of things.. the Home launcher, apps and widgets that are running too, I was getting quick Quadrant scores running your Rom, faster than other themes/roms (590's), but I didn't like the app drawer so I installed Launcher Pro, then Beautiful Widgets and a few other apps.. and after that the Quadrant scores had dropped into the 570's-580's and the speed was barely distinguishable from other Roms.. My SD card is only Class 4 so perhaps that effects my Quadrant scores running your rom with Apps2SD (I don't use Apps2SD on other Roms) anyway, I think your Rom is the most out there Rom, so different from anything else I have seen.. I didn't mean to offend, just wanted to say each to his own. Your Rom in its pure form is still faster than anything else
Sincerely
Kiwi

Hey!
I wasn't offended in any way, sorry if it sounded like that!
What i meant was, that i always look for ways to tweak things up, a liiiittle bit more so that's why i'm asking about setup and stuff.
I've installed many many applications and widgets and i still get the same speed and overall experience plus the quadrant and linpack scores.
To be honest, i still use iridium's launcher and probably it's simplicity makes him fast. Launcher Pro is a highly customizable launcher, but tends to make our phone laggy (try Zeam instead).
And some other piece of info:
App2SD plus the dalvik2SD mod can run properly (and fast), even on class 2 sdcards! (The only laggy part is during the installation of an app, probably +/- ~2seconds). So don't worry about lag with this script.
On the contrary, if you move your /data/data on ext3 partition, you will score more than 800 in quadrant but your phone will get so laggy that it will become unusable anymore (unless you have a class 10 sd)
PS: Purple is the new black. Once you go purple, you never go back, lol
Regards, D_d
@D_d
Sweet.. the last thing I want to do is offend anyone..
And thanks for the Apps2sd tips.. I have used that in the past.. but I find it causes a few issues every time my P.C mounts the ext3 partition on the phone... (I run Ubuntu and it seems to always mount both my phone SD partitions without me telling it to )
I'm waiting for a Froyo type Apps2sd where you can select what apps go where.
I use Launcher Pro Plus (mostly for the widget resize, LP widgets and scrolling dockbar) Zeam's dock bar is really screwy, no fixed scroll, you can only have one App drawer button on it and no custom dock backgrounds.. plus no widget resizing.. but then again.. I also drive an old Citroen so slower speeds obviously aren't an issue for me
I´d used MiniCM6 (great Froyo based ROM) and MiniCM7 (not so good as MiniCM6) for a long time. Now I´m using GingerDX (based on MiniCM7 and ported from Xperia X8 to X10mini) and I´m very happy, it is fast and very powerfull. Some bugs need external programs like Smart Caller ID (free on Android Market) for a correct caller identification (the screen cover the ID on original rom).
[]s
I think that if you haven't got a rom yet, the best would be to wait for the official Clockworkmod team to make their official port of CM7 (they say it's coming up)
I personally use the awsome GinToniC SE by slades87, but i don't know if it works on mini (it's for pro)
Currently what rom would you recommend?
I'm a gamer and browse online often.
What rom would you suggest?
You might like CM 6.1 3, stable enough for games without crashes!
This one?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=947613
never tried that one, I used Wolfbreaks http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=945264 only changed to try out the new MIUI ROM, but is nowhere near stable enough for gaming, and you can't install some games. Wolfbreaks is fine for all you"ll need though

im a gamer too. and im using Wolfbreak ROM. everything is smooth. played GT racing, NFS, and all the games...so far no lag. for net too.
Yeah.. too bad the theme looks a bit half baked.
else i would have installed it.
Currently i hate the Stock blue SE theme too much to install this.
I wish i could get this in complete black with dark bloody red trim.
I guess ill have to Wait and see..
there is an option in CM settings>tweaks. to change it to a black theme.
or u could use the theme im using. honeycomb by Shiwantha. its SWEET! trust me. SWEET
Or u can try the ROM i am running thats in my signature. Thats one is very stable, fast, amd is fully working

For me it´s miniCM2.0.1 2.3.4
The only problem still Camera just take pictures in vga mode
for me i cannot also read QR codes because no autofocus :-(
Next time post on general discussion...this room is for rom development try to keep it clean ty
Sent from my E10
I test all of the roms,
miniCM7 2.0.1 with 2.3.4rom is the best for use
all of the other 2.3.4rom have the Camera problem too--vga mode only
But i like the home semc，wich with Stock Corner style。
Hope miniCM7 2.3.4ROM will suppot it.
Like 2.0.1 MiniCM
You know guys, I am using MiniCM7 I dont mind about camera, but if you care a lot about things not running in this ROM or any other in development, you should go for WaterBeARC X v1.0 is a really good one cuz is based in a SE release (ROM).
From what i've seen, all other roms are practically customized versions of minicm7 built on 2.0.1. So there's not much significant difference like in performance or drivers. It's only up to your preferences, which apps you want pre-installed, if you use corner style or your own launcher... I personally don't use 2.3.4, because there are way too many bugs compared to 2.2.1... & I'm not a tester kind of guy - i like to use the full potential of a device, not test & report bugs But what i liked about minicm7 is that you can register & receive notifications about new versions & updates. This is quite good when there are still bugs waiting to get fixed, so immediately after new release, you're notified. I don't know if this feature is also present in other roms.
im currently using srom 2.3.3v1 which is a cyanogen based rom, i think its pretty stable minus the bugs of course.Its got a brilliant user interface though you will have to download some of the apps from market,i gladly recommend it to anyone who has a mini...i hear the v2 will be out soon..cant wait!!!

WaterBeArc is android 2.1, the title of this thread is best 2.3.4
Of course WaterBeArc is stable, it's just stock 2.1 with BlackHtc theme and some stuff like xrecovery and jit
Minicm 7 has been very stable for me, only one reboot in by 3 weeks of usage.

Come closer, I wanna tell you a secret...good, now listen: He was actually more helpful to the topic than you, bro.
And btw, it's not just stability, 2.1 is also fast & has the best battery life. People at SE know what they're doing. You still use in 2.3.4 drivers ported from stock 2.1 & devs are now debugging them to work at least that good as they did in 2.1. As I said, nAa did a pretty good job with miniCM6, but miniCM7 is missing a lot for me so far: camera resolution, auto-focus, can't select cyanogedmod notification power button for flashlight (in 2.2.1 i can, i don't know why) & sensors are sometimes acting weird in apps like compass or metal detector. But definitely from 2.3.4 roms i would use miniCM7, because until now it's been miniCM that's been innovating & other roms were just following the miniCM & tuning it, i think this trend will stay.
Which rom does has the best performance, n also good for gaming??
i'm currently using swiftdroid rc4
i have no problem with the performance
but some hd game like eternal legacy cannot be played on that rom
i'm gonna try another rom, but don't know which rom should i try first
please help me
if they don't work on swiftdroid I don't think they work better on others rom
I think the best rom is swiftdroid RC4 with RC5 bootfile
SwiftDroid RC4 with boot from RC5.
But i will tommorow check UTOPIA.
best gaming rom is swiftdroid for sure

Why?
I tested Mike Gapinski ROM. It's fine. Why you think SwiftDroid works better?
Mike's rom is awesome beside the lag otherwise i would say it is fast and smooth, angrybird runs smoothly aswell
Sent from my GT540 using XDA App
PcFighter's aosp 2.2.2 is very smooth and stabil
MuR4ik's Rom is awesome, but the best roms are the ones based in official 2.1, I think!
If you prefer performance and battery life over everything then Mike's AOSP is your choice
Aosp 2.2.7 froyo Pcfighter - very good and fast rom,and AOSP ;D
wrong thread, post in Q&A
currently im' using SwiftDroid 2.0 RC5, firstly upon fastbooting, i clean out system apps, remove a whole bunch of them like DSP, Picotts, tts, stock launcher, stock keyboard, all live wallpaers, live wallpaprer picker, gmail, talk, maps, news and weather widget, spare parts, dve tols, quick settings, gallery 3d, home screen tips, one time init, and more, can't remember what
system rom is 157mb and 44.6 is empty
i install smart keyboard, cause it has internal calibration, and rom itself is very miscalibrated, and with my big fingers, i just cant write an SMS, i add launcherpro dropbox quickpicgallery and facebook messenger(Not the app, only messenger app
after that i apply touch wizz theme, icon pack suave hd and last V6 Supercharger --> IMHO the most important, NEVER EVER ran out of memory or had a launcher redraw
never had smoother rom than this.
only thing that can drive me away from this is ICS in some stabil build.
ONLY thing missing is that freakin calibration.
Utopia is the best and very stable rom for me. Try, you will not regret it.

A little bump, I don't know if I should have opened a new topic or not but I hope you can forgive me.
I am very happy with my Optimus but the phone started to show wrong battery stats a while ago and I finally decided to fix that but I need some advice.
The details:
Code:
Version 2.2.1
Kernel version: 2.6.29 [email protected]
Mod version: OpenSwift/CyanogenMod-6.1.1
Everything was fine for 1.5 years, my battery lasted for 7-10 days (I only use my phone for sms/calls/listening to music/occasional Internet and Google maps search/. But for a few months now, the battery stats are wrong all the way, I charge my phone fully and after few minutes it is on 80% percent but I know that this is wrong because my battery lasts as usual. Sometimes it says 15% or less ("please connect your charger") and shuts down my phone, but after a while, I turn it back on and the phone lasts for several more hours without charging. This is really annoying because one time, I had to make an urgent call, my phone shut down and later I turned it on and the battery lasted a long time without the need to recharge so this is basically a software issue if I recall correctly.
I have two questions:
Should I use an android app to recalibrate my battery or is there a better, manual way to do it?
Should I change to another ROM? I want the ROM which gives me the most battery life but I also want root access e.g. without any restrictions. I saw that the Utopia ROM is suggested but it says:
Does not work:
...
Native USB tethering
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I want to be able to use my Optimus as a modem with the PdaNet application and if I think correctly, I won't be able to do it with the Utopia ROM or am I wrong?

Okay, I'm 15 i started getting into android about 5 mounths ago with my good'ol "Samsung galaxy ace" after using it for about 3 mounths i decided that i needed a higher res screen and a proc capable of playing most main stream games (GTA. Nova 2. Minecraft etc). So i bought my beloved neo for theses reasons:
1. 1GHz Proc
2. 265 DPI (854x480)
3. 512mb RAM
After about 2 mounths usage i can't seem to understand how all UI interactions are faster and smoother on my Galaxy Ace?
No matter what ROM (ICS or GB) with whatever kernel I can't get my neo to live up to the smoothness of STOCK Galaxy ace rom, let alone a tweaked rom.
It makes no sense to me how a phone with a faster and better proc and more ram can't achive the same smooth UI
If anyone can explain to me what i can do to improve UI smoothness or how UI scrolling smoothness works in roms etc THEN I BEG YOU TELL ME!
(IF ANYONE SAYS "Buy an Iphone" I WILL REMOVE THERE SCROTUM WITH A BLUNT SPOON)
Roms i've tried:
ALL ics rom (apart from miui) (ICS roms are WAY too laggy for usage)
Most gingerbread roms apart from:
SE tweaked (couldent get it working)
any MIUI (Y WOULD I WANT MY PHONE TO LOOK LIKE AN IPHONE APPLE ARE ****)
I have treid super charge on lots of roms, dont really see or feel difference to scrolling.
Currently im using Stock .62 as it is by fair the smoothest rom for neo.
Thanks for anyone who can point me in right direction or explain y UI isnt smooth.
Sorry for ranting, Josh. (moonytoonyking)
root and launchers
I dont know if this would help you but, have you tried installing replacement launchers? such as Launcher Pro and ADW Launcher EX? they have both smooth UI scrolling interface. Also smooth app drawer UIs. In fairness to Xperia Neo, It has smooth scrolling. Are you sure you are not running too much apps in the background which makes your device slower? Are you rooted? If you are rooted, then I bet you get control of your device, Disabling (unnecessary) background apps, taking control of your CPU/RAM. You could also install Chainfire 3d which would help you a lot in playing games (in terms of hardware enhancements)
Give us details about your mobile, and I mean details so we could help you out mate.
If you're looking for absolute smoothness go for cm7.2, but use other launcher than adw, it lags, at least for me.
Have you tried cm9? it is the fastest rom ive ever tried, i tweaked it for faster and battery friendly.
And its awesome mate.

Have you ever considered about the fact that comparing to Neo,galaxy ace got a lower resolution.Anyway try removing bloatware and use a custom launcher like apex.

There are loads of way to make your phone faster and smoother this is how I do it
1: Over Clock to the highest possible even tho it says recommended not to lol just wack it up lol
2: Memory Booster - I like this app just because ever 10 mins I set it up to boot to get ram back up
3: Launcher on ICS at the min so I been using Apex or Nova launcher on gingerbread I would use ADW or Stock
4: SD Maid - Clears all the junk that your phone make for you from internet and other apps

it's rather strange for you to tell me Neo's Scolling is laggy...
to me...it is more smooth than SII and iPhone 4... without root and mod.
U may try 3rd launcher like SPB Shell, AdW EX, Go EX and Launcher Pro.
Also, u may want to enable GPU rendering (HW acc.) of launcher
Hope these help...
I suggest you to use this ICS rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1570499 combined with Apex Launcher and NightElf kernel v1.0 RC2 lite...The only problem is that many games aren't optimized for ICS,but the UI it's way smoother than Galaxy S2 or even Galaxy Nexus,plus that the battery life is amazing (use setCpu to underclock the processor when screen is off,i'm using it @245-460 mhz w screen off,and 245-1024 mhz in normal use,and battery life is deffinitely improved (in stand-by it drained 1% in 5 hours).
Thanks for all the replies
I've tried a load of launchers my fav for GB being ADW and for ICS being Apex.
they work well and usaly improve smoothness. BTW i agree that neo is smoother than Gs2 (on stock) but not Galaxy Nexus, that is super smooth.
I have root.
Overclock helps to an extent but if rom is unsmooth it dosent do much.
Havent tried that I-scream ROM as i have found that all SEMC based ICS roms LAG really badly, however since you recomend it i will try. I have been reading up on things like swap and zram but im not sure if they will improve my speed much?
Again thanks for all the help I LOVE XDA'ers

If you still experience some lag, try turning off scrolling cache, force disable, on cm options.
I have about 30 apps i install and don't experience any lag.
Sort of glad to see i'm not the only one having issues with adw.

Not bad but stock .62 is smoother by alot still, shame i love ICS. I actualy found the AOSP rom to be the smoothest ICS rom but it has many bugs

You've used Apex Launcher? Because i know that stock launcher is very laggy.I'm currently using this rom with apex launcher and on-screen buttons,and i'm never going back to gingerbread.

Apex improved it alot, but still not smooth, cm9 amazes me its sooooos smooth but buggy and sturf dosent work.
the smoothness of the rom is always tied to the framework files sony didn't optimize it well in their ICS release....

i can't do it myself but back in the days when i had an x8 ginger bread was laggy on it and a guy called doixanh or something fixed it by optimizing the framework and it became very smooth silky smooth
FINALY: CM 7.2 (fxp17) with disabled scrolling cache Is SUPER SMOOTH im very happy, hopefuly cm9 will be this smooth when its done.
