I had arranged the ROMs according to their types and released date. I'll try to update the first post with links to the new or updated ROMs if necessary... Please remind me if I had missed a link.

MiniCM7 + nAa Kernel = Best Combination.
I have minicm7 by paul, but feel afraid for changing the kernel, I don't know what benefits will I get unlocking my bootloader, flashing a new kernel, and using the same rom...

Unlock bootloader benefit, wifi tether by nAa kernel and CWMv5<< FTW!
ZPK << stable a lot..
Simple kernel << sad case wifi not working
Fa kernel v0.4 << nice, a lot feature (smartass,CWM5)
nAa kernel << for now is the best, wifi tether is fully native now due to added netfilter, sad: only works with minicm7 v2.1.7 ROM only or other ROM contain build in wifi source(only minicm7 v2.1.7). If use other custom ROM except minicm7 v2.1.7, all other ROM will get wifi error.
for my personal i choose nAa bcoz netfilter, have netfilter u will get more application support.
sry for my bad english >.<
Yeah, I had to do it, the comments was so good tha I decide to test it...
And I can see is so much better..!

Not at all, and all of the features of the phone works fine, for example, common issues with custom ROMs on our phones is the lack of full use of the camera, only working on vga, etc. This ROM works perfectly, it's the best one by now.

Well even i am in stock ROM but as far as i know MiniCM 7 v21 by paul is one of the good one but i also was looking into Cynocream Sandwich and people have been happy with it as well
I'm currently on Flame.GDX and it's been great so far!
Will need more time to test before knowing if there are anything that I don't like on the ROM
EDIT: I prefer StornMix now
**Just a little something to consider , we have a small device clocked only at 600MHz any firmware after GB is really pushing it. I recommend that you use nAa's GB rom with his kernel. Best performance and long lasting battery life. But thats just me.
I will add the new roms that came out recently soon.
For noobs:
Root - Rooting you phone means (in simple terms) you own all functionality of you phone, you gain administration rights on you phone.
Custom Rom - These are tweaked/modified roms which are most likely add more functionality e.g. better apps, faster UI etc.
xRecovery/CWM - Allows you to install custom roms and do many other things.
Kernel - Enables communication between software and hardware. Look at it this way if you are able to understand someone better than another person you will be able to do what is asked, it is the same with the kernel(To understand why to have a custom kernel).
To install custom rom:
1)Download a custom rom and place in sd card.
2)Root phone.
3)Install recovery.
4)Reboot phone and tap the back button to enter recovery.

Hello, Bashy
Today is a my holiday, so I tried StornMix V2 with each stock kernel & ZombiePanic kernel already.
It's almost faster and smooth and works well for me without any big problems.
+ When install with ZombiePanic v1.63, little bit difficult. So I tried few times with each different patterns.
But, I'm sorry... I forgot which way to got a success
However, I got a feeling like instability at just only sometime, but I really can't identify the where it came from...
And I think, may have little problem to visual of character by the background of the theme .
So maybe the theme change to little more simple to be much better.
Anyways, I think StornMix V2 is wonderful rom and I can see the good future of this rom.
I think if you want got a more good thoughts, should be wait to next version.
I had sense of anticipation to this rom
Bashy'
thanks for adding my rom to this page.

SoundWire
I tried this, and is soo lag.
However, nice topic, is good for new peoples.
Guys, is there a working combination of custom kernel and custom ROM? What would you suggest to use?
Lately, I have tried Zombie Panic which should work with any Froyo or Ginderbread. I installed it over Paul's MINICM7 V21 with no luck (Got stucked on the kernel logo screen) and had to revert back to stock kernel.
Please advise.
with minicm7 pro. u have to delete some modules from it! then it will work smoothly with slade's kernel!
It is recommended by paul-xxx, and in my experience best to use stock 2.1.1.A.0.6 kernel with MiniCM7 Pro.
Sent from my phone
OK. I figured it out by using Zombie Panic and MiniCM7 by Slade.
Thank you!
Sheesh, its easy. Use ZP Kernel + GinTonic. Both are by slade.
Use nAa-08 kernal and MiniCM7-2.1.7 Rom... the best combination.. Native wifi and usb tethering, real dual touch and lots more.....

Yep, i too agree, Naa's ROM and kernel. but regarding battery life have to check it out.

CM7mini pro+nAa kernel
fastest. no problems at all.
for me...
[ROM]CyanoCream Sandwich (v2.0) + [kernel] Fa kernel 0.4 beta it so good!
[ROM] MiniCM7-2.1.7 + [KERNEL] nAa-08 are the best combination!
good luck
Guys no one is giving any suggestions
which is the best ROM for STOCK kernel....>?????
MiniCM6 v1.0.6 is best for me for stock kernel!
And the best rom for everyone will be different! So you need to check yourself which suits you the best! Happy Flashing!!!

I prefer in stock kernel MiniCM7 pro V21 by Paul...
Just give a try, and decide which is better for you..!
thanks cerebro....but when i was looking for CM7 it said its for zombie and other kernels and it requires to unlock the bootloader because it installs the private kernel on that....
i will go for the custom kernel because i can feel the difference when i use the phone. so if you feel very brave and have more guts to unlock the bootloader you can test all the available kernels.
I prefer you can test that out with custom kernel. if you dont then its ok.
Every user has a personal opinion over rom and kernel. so it is pointless to know which one works with the stock kernel. You can go for a rom hunt and find out which one works for you.
Good luck!
for me best rom for stock is CM7v21 and GingerDX (any version)
also FlameDX.ICS style.

So, give it a try...!!
I'm new here, and I'm searching for a while now for a stock 2.2.1 froyo rom because thats the most stable rom for my mini pro processor but i can't find it i found a couple but they have ugly icons of is honeycomb themed somebody know where i can find a 2.2.1 rom with original icons and theme

use the el MiniCM7 pro V21 by Paul!!! this is the best and fast rom for me! 100%...
thnx, i already tried that one but i had some issues with that rom, i have now for a few months mini arc and it works fine sometime a little bit slow and now i have v9 and looks great. i like the rom because the original state of it no weird icons or launchers (i hate that)
I have been using minicm7 pro v21 since it got out and had no problem with it.
I haven't tried arcmini or the latest gingerDX though.
Would Be MiniCM7 Pro V21...
2.1.1.Clean.0.0 V5
Lite, quick and fully working. The best.
2.1.1.Clean.0.0 V5

Yes Thats quite RIGHT. Everyone has different test, demand, style. So, TO Check Every ROM as categorized GO TO THis Post>>>>>>>http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1587177
It has everything you need. Just look for you Phone model and ROMs under it.
Which of the following ROM List most stable (I need stable than the Stock 2.1 ROM if it can) and fast :
- [ROM+KERNEL]X10MiniProTeam 0.5 + nAa Kernel
- [ROM] MiniCM7Pro - V21 FINAL + Stock Kernel / nAa Kernel
- [ROM] MiniCM7-2.1.9 Gingerbread 2.3.7/CM7.2 + nAa Kernel
I will be based on that for development this ROM Offical 2.3.7 from HERE
MiniCM7.
Like every other GB ROM, it does have memory issues. ICS gives plenty of memory, as much as stock, but its still in beta stage. MiniCM7 is the best we've got.
Yup, there's a lot of new ROM out there, but still got some bugs on it and likely something missing and we need to flash other zip file to fix it up. Most of the failure is about wifi connection, keybord light, force closed, network problem. This week I already used 3 rom. In the morning, I'm on prime HDv2 but right now, I'm using xmpteam rom v0.5.
Sent from my U20i using XDA
Hmmm if u choose mini cm pro v21. U better use stock kernel rather than nAa kernel.. A lot of user's out there had theire touch screen not responding.
Sent from my U20i using XDA
I suggest you to use as base MiniCM7 or PrimeHD.
I have been using MiniCM7 for a while now... I must say I have no complaints about it...
MiniCM7 by nAa.
MiniCM7Pro - V21 FINAL by paul-xxx , running on stock kernel. It's the best we've got until: V03 of paul-xxx's Ice Cream Sandwich rom with fully functioning in-built WiFi. I don't want to have to flash extra zip/s to get the WiFi working - I'll unlock my bootloader, change to a custom kernel and use paul-xxx's ICS rom as soon as the WiFi just works. Plain and simple. I can't wait until V03!
[ROM] ArcMini X Remake WiFi Fixed [Links Updated] [24/2/2012]
this rom i think is very good.
just an idea
why dont you focus on stable GB rom for stock kernel?take minicm7pro as a base..and perfect it more (yep this rom is perfect, but do it more)..so that, new user come here, see you rom, download, n flash..(ofcourse they must have recovery first )..this my reasons
1. we already had a lot of gb rom using custom kernel, n new active one is x10mpteam, they doing great, so why do you want to make another?
2. we only had a couple rom using stock..and for x10mini, i dont see latest gb rom for stock, myb im wrong but after you done, you can port for them too..
MiniCM7 from nAa, with this I have 65-70mb free ram
Kernel may have something to do with it though as im on nAa-11..
Sent from my U20i using xda premium
i suggest x10 MP teams ROm with its kernel I have 92 mb free in every minute i can say and its very stable and improved 3d graphics just relax when you have a team like X10 MP team
I remember saying that the x10 mini is way ahead of the big x10 xperia.
And someone said that it's not true.... it is... and we still are.
Looks at the amount of roms with fixed EGL adreno 200 lib's for x10 mini.

I Was using MiniCM7Pro - from v7 to FINAL v21, had a locked bootloader...then when MiniCM7 2.1.7 build showed up for our mini pros, I need to unlock Bootloader, and i did it with a lump in my throat,but all went great.. And it paid off.Thanks to Paul-xxx and nobodyAtAll for there invested time and great developing skills they have. Thanks guys!

i was using that rom too, but since nAa ported his rom and kernel I immediately switched. gintonic is outdated and laggy compared to minicm7 2.1.9. but you must unlock bootloader and flash nAa kernel to get it working. back in the day it was longer process, and we had to do it manually, but today there are simple tools to do that easy and fast (unlocking bootloader).
