What are the best things to do after stock 4.0.4 root, besides cwm, custom rom, kernel etc.
I mean tweaks, apps for better performance and all this stuff!
Thanks, and remember, only for stock rom and kernel, locked bootloader!

Hi. I have some doubts about this, I wanna try the last rom by nAa, and it ask for a unlock bootloader and nAa Kernel, my quiestion is: After doing that is there any way for getting back to the original kernel, I mean PC companion will work? and restore it like factory?
Thx!
Don't worry, you can flash anytime back to stock kernel, witch is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1403808
Thnx, but I meant Mini pro u20...
Btw, if I have a Backup with Minicm7 by paul in cwm with stock kernel, if then I flash Naa kernel, if I restore the backup I had, it comes with the stock kernel??
No. CMW backups the ROM and its data. To revert back to stock kernel you just have to DL a stock kernel file from the site and flash it.
And the bootloader re-lock?
What are the benefits for having an unlocked bootloader, using a rom in stock kernel...
If you're using stock kernel and dont plan on using a custom kernel, there's no benefit.
The whole purpose of unlocking BL is to be able to flash a custom kernel. there are pretty whack custom kernels around which, naturally, are better than stock.
So, what are the benefits of using Custom Kernel?
My x10 mini pro is running paul-xxx's miniCM7pro version 17, and the result I got from S1tool were: SEMC SIMLOCK CERTIFICATE (that means I can unlock it right?). My question is can I continue the unlocking process, or do I need to downgrade my phone first to stock firmware?
I'm doing this for my brother so I haven't been much on this sub-forum.
Thanks
I was like you, in the cm7 by paul, I flashed normally with no downgrading....
Just do it...!!

Thank you, it worked very well! Installed the last kernel and rom by nAa and the phone is way faster than before. I bet my brother is more happy with his phone now!

Depends on the kernel you're using. NAa's is the best one out there. Zombie panic is at par with it. Tonnes of features with outstanding speed and stability.
But i guess you're aware of it now
quick question,
basically what are the benifits of custom roms compared to stock kies roms ?
i currently have rr 2.2 rom but appart from the looks and animations etc.. is there a difference in performance/ battery compared to stock?
its been a while sinse i have been on stock so i cant remember what it was like and i just wanted to know are custom roms more better in terms or speed/battery/power etc..
thanks

custom rom do come with there own pro's and con's u have to check the changelog of that rom to see whats different in it also some apps which do require root previlage wrks fine with custom roms rather than stock one's
stock roms do have better batt life compared 2 custom ones at the cost of customization with there dull and boring looks
thanks for your reply i guess its just finding the correct balance between customization and battery life then. cheers
go with custom
I had the exact same thoughts when i first decided to flash a custom rom.
Personally i would now flash a custom rom at the drop of a hat, however as the previous comment said there are pros and cons.
do some research on roms with functionality that you require and you'll find one you want to flash no doubt.
hope i helped
i am now running CM9 and its so smooth and looks amazing, a millions times better than stock in almost every way!
Check out the ROM and the comments which people have wrote. Some of them may be good and others may be bad.. you'll be able to work out the missing features of the custom rom bother you or not ^__^ That's how I work out whether to install the ROM XD Most ICS ROM's have their benefits and cons, Gingerbread would be considered the most stable Hope this helps you

Highly customizable. You can overclock, undervolt, theme, use different launchers. To me they're faster too.

cheers guys i guess custom seems the way forward, just need to research the changelog of each rom that takes my fancy
thanks again guys !!
What about if I install a custom kernel, but keep my stock rom? Is there any benefit at all?
To clarify: I'm on i19100 4.0.3 which I've recently rooted. Thinking of installing Siyah 3.5.2 but for now I want to keep my stock (Bell) ROM. What do I stand to gain when I get the Siyah kernel, if anything? Or is the kernel really *only* just a prerequisite to get a custom ROM?
Thanks!

But there's already no brick bug on 4.0.3 right? So... what exactly would I gain with the Siyah kernel?
The only thing I can think of is CPU/kernel modding

One BIG reason I'm on stock ROM and KERNEL is that currently no custom Kernel supports MHL (please correct me if I'm wrong)
For me this is a big problem as I'm always watching movies and playing games on my TV with my phone

It's the ROM, not the kernel, that determines if MHL fully works.
Apparently video works with AOSP, but not full mirror of the display.
However, if you want full mirroring, you'll need to be on a stock Samsung based ROM.
That said, you can still run a custom kernel, such as Siyah or SpeedMod, and MHL will still work as long as you remain on the Samsung based ROM.
I'm currently running stock XWLPX with Siyah 4.1.4, and MHL works fully for me.
the rom i have is stock except rooted and stuff but what are the tools and tweaks to make it faster? thanks
are you on ics official stock? and just rooted right?

There is a few things you can do:
1.Overclock kernel
2.remove all bloatware and add some build props to tweak out your current rom to make it a little faster.,
3...instead of using that rom..maybe you could upgrade to the same dev..but his other ics rom..which is to be said is very fast and stable..which will be extremly faster then what your on....

Yes ....
Trade the stock rom for a bebloated and optimized rom ....g
I am relatively new to the whole flashing custom roms scene etc. I have a Xperia Go currently running stock ICS 6.1.1.B.1.54 but I am not happy with the battery life. I have not experience any performance issues running this firmware but the battery drain is starting to get me down. Now, before I flash back to stock GB I would just like to hear other people's experiences with custom roms etc. Can they improve battery life etc because they have a lot of bloatware removed?
Any info greatly appreciated...
Yes custm roms r good than stock..
U should try..
Either its stock based or cm based...
Just see before that is that rom stable or not..

Thanks - could you possibly suggest one for me to try please?
I am back on GB now but can't help thinking my battery life would be better if I could get rid of the all the Sony bloatware. When I open running services it's full of crap!
I recommend you CyanogenMod.
So I can install a custom kernel but I don't necessarily need a custom rom? Sorry for the stupid questions but all I want is better battyer life. I am very happy with the performance of my device
Also, I was wondering if a good alternative for me would just be to root my phone and remove all of the bloatware using titanium backup or similar?

Hi there, a new user here, I have a question regarding kernel. My battery seems to be doing well but recently i've flashed my xperia u with the SXU_TerraRomICS_V1_B54_Final that i got from XDA and my battery indicator is going down pretty fast even in deep sleep. My main consumator is the screen as show in the phone stats. Is this a kernel problem? And if I flash a new kernel will it change my apps, fonts and other?
PS : I like the way my phone is now and I don't want to change anything but to improve my battery life if possible

For your information custom rom has so many features and tweaks to improve stability and performance so you decide what you need and what you don't need
