[XPERIA X10 General] bharadwaj1991:
I've tried Stock GB and CM7-ZMOD and FXP 18-20b. They are all GREAT, but CM7-ZMOD and FXP both have issues FXP more than ZMOD. ZMOD is fast...but sometimes RARELY WLOD and FC's and battery drain...is HUGE (for me atleast). It lasts wonderfully long the first time you install it then for me after first recharge it just drains and drains.

FXP has crazy amount of bugs, but that is completely acceptable since it is completely written from source.

Stock of course without any add-ons isn't the perfect rom but it is well made.

I am on stock after weeks with the others. Stock with audio stutter fix, fps unlock, DoomKernel v04, and YES the way it deals with a bunch of applications open at once...is not good but there is a fix for that somewhere. I have removed most of the apps I don't need from the system.

Yes there are other ROMS such as WB, but no offence but if I am going to make a switch to 'custom' ROM I want it to be COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. I like AOSP CM theme. BTW I have tried WB It's alright. I would have to say its based on SE framework so of course it is going to be STABLE.

I will stay on STOCK/FIXES until ZMOD v004 comes out or FXP bugs are hammered out.

1. Stock sux ballz... it's not smooth at all and lets not forget the audio lag. -

Audio stutter fix/FPS uncap

2. Stock is locked... normally it's not root able "thank god for the kernel exploit" -

Come on... didn't think SE would release unlocked ROM did you?

3. Stock has issue's with several games.. "running out of memory" -

Not with fixes

4. Stock is full of BOG ware.. "i don't need extra trash" -

Delete if you don't like. I did.

5. Facial recognition "lets SE know who they are looking at" -

? don't know what that is...but since we don't have a front facing camera don't really care + probably removed it from system.

6. Facebook intrgrated "your privacy explored and open" -

Delete if you don't like. I did.

7. Stock is for noobs.. get a rom please. -

Obviously not true.

8. Time Scape = Cpu Rape. -

Delete if you don't like it. I did.

9. Battery usage Higher. -

Using it for 3 days with MODERATE/HIGH usage. 8 hrs of music, 4 hours of games, 2 hrs talktime, constant google voice/talk chats, constant words with friends game.

10. I just plainly don't like stock.. it takes away human individuality. "10 people in the same room with the same phone and the same apps all with the same interface and the same stock rom...... Boring" -

AGREE!!!! Except for the fact that I have never seen anyone with the X10, kind of a rare phone where I am from.

You could argue that with all these custom kerenls, and fixes it is no longer "STOCK". I would say that is a sound argument. But I could argue that it still is SE framework and all I changed was how it managed itself...i/o scheduler, governor, fps raised, stutter fixed. But to be honest I never had issues with the audio stutter.

If anyone REALLY thought the X10 was a ****ty phone and its capabilities were limited to sh*t, they would have gotten rid of it by now. Obviously everyone who is still in this forum prefers their X10 over any other phone they currently own. (UNLESS of course you have another phone you use besides your X10) I got rid of my horrible LG SHINE the moment I realized how horrible it was. So don't say the answer to the OP's question is, yes you are the only one that thinks this. We all have hope that our developers will let loose the phone.
