[Q] You Choose The Best ROM - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

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.

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.

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.
Looks at the amount of roms with fixed EGL adreno 200 lib's for x10 xperia.
"there's only one and it's unstable...."

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).

It is a bit of a question of personal taste, but for me it still is MiniCM7-2.2.0 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1415026) together with nAa Kernel. Everything works, it is fast and it is stable.

GingerDX is based on MiniCM too, created for X8 then ported for mini pro.
Both ROMs are awesome.
I tested both of those awesome ROMs and I must say it's only personal preference. Both ROMs are pretty similar from user perspective, but both are working great!!
Only disadvantage I noticed comparing to 2.2 is bit higher battery drain. But nothing serious ;-)
i frankly and actually speakin didn't find ANY difference between the two ROMS, except for the bootanimation!!!!....am i missin something???!!!??....temme if am wrong
I would give a heads up to Paul's latest version since GingerDX v006 was a bit buggy last time I checked. But Slade is back too with a fully working rom as I read on some topics but I didn't try it already.
Ive Pauls CM7Pro on my Device!
All works fine! Only 1 reboot since few Days (with extrem useing)
I forgot:
I used V4! Now V5 is out => Downloading now...
GingerDX V007 is out today, supposed to correct all previous bugs
GingerDX is much faster and smoother than minicm!!!
I agree with stelios, GingerDX is faster and I think it has a few more settings options. On the other hand, all 2.3.5 are based on MinICM, so the differences should be little when the final versions are released.
I like more GingerDX
A new version of Paul's rom should be released soon as he has a new hotfix to include ^^
Edit : it's out !

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..!

[Q] Which rom do you recommend

Before you flame me ...I don't own this device.
I have checked out several of the roms that have been built for this device.
I am wondering which is the most stable, what features do you like about it, how far are the ICS ports?
I am curious because I will be installing one of these based on YOUR reccomendations for someone else as I do not own the device.
I would greatly appreciate device specific pros, cons, tips and tweaks.
I am particularly interested in miniCM7 as I have CM7 on my lg gt540 but checking out the thread I have seen many issues with wifi etc.
So to sum it up I am looking to you... the experts on the x10minipro.
Help me make the right choice for someone else.

GB roms are the most stable ones. ICS has problems with adreno libs but as of today qualcomm released the drivers. cant really say but heres what i have used.
[ROM] MiniCM7-2.2.0 [29/3/12]Gingerbread 2.3.7/CM7.2 unofficial port for the pro
Pros:
very stable
many features
used by majority IMO
many tweaks
Cons:
boot loader needs unlocking - tricky for some i guess
needs custom kernel - same reason
[ROM] MiniCM7Pro - V21 FINAL + Lite Versions
Pros:
does not need unlocked bootloader
easy intallation
stable as well
Cons:
less tweaks compared to the other one
no updates for some time
note: this is for my u20i because you did not say what phone your using.

Ya sorry I forgot to mention x10 mini pro u20I
Unlocking bootloader seems to be pretty straightforward.
Follow the guides and I should have no problem is basically what you are saying then.

Ok... so i did some checking and it seems that my baseband is not compatible to flash directly.... but... for my U20i i can install the european baseband and then flash the custom kernel and then install the rom. Correct?
Btw i tried the cwm version... very nice work.
Like i said before i dont care if i brick my stuff but other people dont really like that.

Ya i would have to agree. I successfully installed it after following one of the many guides and am rockin minicm7 2.2
Kinda jealous tho... some of the features i dont have on my GT540 running CM7.
IMO is the MiniCM the best ROM for the Xperia x10 mini and pro

[Q] recommended X10i rom

rocking the unlocked bootloader,using xda premium app.
phones are like cars, you can't keep them stock for too long.
Id say Wolfbreak V7 its simple, clean and fast also supports both unlocked and locked bootloaders, theres no FC apart from brightness but there is a fix for it.
I find the gaming version best out of any just install the DSP manager and maybe a different music player (I dont like the normal one personally) leave it to settle and you got one of best out there, If u dont want stock go for CM7.2 its fast smooth and not very buggy or cud try ZMOD CM7
The classic roms seem better than most new versions.
you need try Donut with ICS theme, it's very smoothy n fast..
Why not try MIUI oodie Prime X ..

thanks melli.
Fxp 115/'116' imminent Cyanogen cm9 or miui 4 by. Lukas but both roms not stable enough for daily use yet!!!
thanks, i'll find that one then
I would reccomend oodies miui Gingerbread very stable for daily use and wait little while longer for ics to be stable enough
I would say your best bet would be fxp's cm9 offering (although I mean no disrespect whatsoever to the other ics offerings about) but it is still an alpha essentially so it may not b suitable for daily use.

Give This ICS-ish Theme A shot!!!! [DONUTHD2.1][ROM]
Hello, So Far Stable and Full-fledged ICS ROM for x10i still in Process (Means none of them guarantee 100% versatile in daily use ) But if you also considering THEME for x10i, so far i encountered, in my opinion, DONUTHD + its theme maybe the most similar theme you may ever seen.
The ROM called DonutHD2.1 [First time Booted, keyboard will not seen, will be shown after 2nd reboot)
For further ICS theme completion updates, Find update called DonutICS309.zip (Only Flashed it after Reboot 2nd Time or not will meet bootloop )
Such feature can be added on:
1.Xloud and Bravia Engine
2.ICS-ish Boot Animation
3.ICS-ish Lookscreen, phone call and so on
Give it a try
If this helps or convinces you, pls hit ''thanks''
Sincerely,
whitefang
At this point in time, the freexperia rom (FXP 121) is pretty stable for daily use. However, it has no camera capabilities, no hotspot, and has small color issues when playing videos. Other than that, it is proving to be stable enough for my daily use (I don't use hotspot, and the camera is not a deal-breaker for me).
Try Oodie pRiMe X| MIUI [2.1.20] .. its very stable and smooth. here the link .. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1295089
can use for UN BL and LK BL.
