[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] fizu:
well, im always in good mood on helping new guys (coz im new and i know how hard is to jump in a so technical forum without any help), and personally i find comments like "tehres a lot of threads like this...bla bla", very unuseful...better to not answer at all instead of answering without giving informations...

anyway, as stated before, there is a lot of ROMs here, so search the one that will fit better your personality and don't bother ... :D

(jk)

is best to know what kind of improvements you'r searching.

Most of the info are coded in the title of the thread , so you can speed up a bit your research.

For example : [25.01.09] is the release date, this become useful when you need to track a ROM to see if there is some new updates, or just to locate the ROM in the time...

[WM.6.5.3] : it shows the OS (Windows Mobile 6.5.3) that will replace your old, lazy Windows Mobile 6.1, installed in all the official ROMs.

So if you are searching for a ROM including WiMo 6.5 or Android etc... this will be the code that should shine on your eyes.

[Manila.....] it means that the User Interface Manila (tipical in HTC products like Diamond, HD etc) was ported in the device, so you will get a pretty new user interface that you can also use like a panel instead of having it as default interface.

Others criteria can be referred to the pureness of a ROM or declare what kind of customizations were made by the cook , so a [WM.6.5 PURE] means that you will find ONLY the improvement of WM6.5.

Others are like brands, recalling the name of the cook, or the name of a "famous" ROM that has been changed in several aspect from the original but that will keep the feeling of the original one (like Touch-IT, SEX1, Un-Off series)...

Some others will refer to a specific HTC phone [LEO] or [TOPAZ], this means that the ROM were basically ported from an HTC device to another, or from another device to our X1 (see X2 ROMS) ...

Or you can find language indications [ITA] or [ENG] or [SWE] etc etc...

But first you need to know what you are searching for ...

For sure switching to WM6.5 is a huge change (imho) , avoiding Manila will save a lot of RAM, searching for some X2 stuff will give you some eye candy etc etc...

personally i installed on first days of December the SEX1 Pure WM 6.5 ROM from gtrab... amazing...simply amazing... very fast and bug free... it gave additional months of life to my X1.

On how to install a custom ROM (pretty different from updating ROM via SEUS) there is 2 sticky threads in this forum, you should learn how to do it by yourself...so don't ask about this...

Enjoy your X1 !

How are any of the posts that Senior members like myself have posted are useless? You can't really experience a cook's ROM by asking other people. What someone might like might not be what's best for you. You really need to learn more about how this forum works. This isn't your typical forum where you can ask and get. This is a forum where you learn from experience, hence "Devolopers" in the title.

And the sharing of "warez" is not allowed! So you obviously have a lot of learning and reading to do. First off, start with the stickies on the main pages.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] yaboistarr:
I understand that there is alot to this forum, i have been getting alot of my updates from here. when i said useless i meant just reply to this thread without attempting to help is useless. I like to hear people's opinions in order to make a decision since there is so much in this forum. it would be nice just to get some insight and opinions, not overloaded links.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Im Packing:
And if you want other users opinions about ROMs then go to the specific ROM threads and READ!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] fizu:
@Yaboistarr

no warez for me man :)

@Im Packing

"This is a forum where you learn from experience"

yeah and is so satisfying ! That's why everybody here didnt bought an iPhone :D

Anyway don't forget that not everyone has the time needed to really learn everything, you cannot figure how much i would learn how to cook, but i don't have time...

First impact should be soft, you cannot start maths with equations uh?

Otherwise people will just fall back to sites where they can find warez or crappy applications...
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] vietdoan20062006:
lots people stop cooking X1 rom nowaday in this forum, it seems really sad, like 1-2 new rom every week :(

the best rom i can say in term of speed, stable, responsive would be wildchild 6.1 rom almost a year ago, its download likes only 60-70mb though, nothing install and you can install whatever you want after then

[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jimk68:
Not overload link and you start a new thread...??? Is people like you who over load
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] mattmarion:
Thanks for the info.

I've been wanting to ask the same question but I'm waaaayy to shy to get flamed. There is such a thing as a bad answer and it's the one that contains useless or condescending material (like asking how to enable root login in linux, we know it's bad form but regurgitation of that is just stupid, answer the question or don't post).

That being said, I've been through these forums, have loaded several roms on and have tried to read through the rom pages. I have also noticed that sometimes things like radio version are missing from rom pages and that there's 110 or so pages of comments. Unfortunately, I don't have near enough time to look through that many comments, though I'd love to. This thread, due to one great answer, is awesome.

Basically, I forget the name, but sernior dude that keeps posting to read the comments and whatnot, in that same amount of time, could probably have contributed quite a bit to this thread, being in the know and probably having an opinion on the various roms/chefs/whatnot...

Also, a stikied thread where chef's can add their new roms to a table, or something on those lines, would be a huge benefit to everyone and save tonnes of time, not to mention it would get more spotlight for each chef as one wouldn't have to search through the billions of forum pages to find a rom...

Looking for an android rom at the moment, personally :)
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Im Packing:
There's always time to learn...I own my own business working ungodly hours a week and I manage to find time to get on the forums to read/download ROMs. I was being straight forward about my approach, but I wasn't being rude at all. I can prove posts to where I'm rude. But for someone who's wanting to flash ROMs is willing to read to flash their phone, but not willing to read and find out what each cook has specifically done to their ROMs and asking for opinions instead is just flat out lazy.

The OP is willing to read about how flash his phone, but not willing to read what each ROM is about? I could share my experiences, but if you want to know what I think then go to each ROM specific thread and read what I've written! And if you're too lazy to really read the entire thread and find out what the ROM is really about because of the "I don't have time" excuse then just read the first page of each cook's ROM. There's almost always pictures, change logs, updates, and a good general wealth of information of what that ROM is about.

There should be no reason for threads to be started about which ROM is best for me as it's been stated a few times now that basically it's "To Each and Their Own!" This forum is about research and development. RESEARCH!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] fizu:
@im packing

really how you can judge the time of other people?

teach me that...please !

How can you say that the statement "i don't have time" is just an excuse and "help me" is lazyness...

Im not talking about how many hours you work weekly or daily....you are supposed to work during your job time and not learn xda dev fora... im talking about people that once finished the working time may have 1 or 2 hours to reach their houses and then deal with kids, wife, dogs, house management etc etc etc... to fall destroyed on their beds and wake up 5 hours later to restart again and again...

they don't have the right to acces this forum knowledge to have a better device?

or they don't deserve simply your patience and attention...?

explain me...

while i respect the job that you claimed for this community, you seems to me a bit arrogant...
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] deepthroat:
believe me ...he is not arrogant if you try to maintain the same level with him :rolleyes:
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] kitman:
hmm so let's say we all start contributing to this tread as to what is all the tons of roms are all about and it balloon to 100 pages, would you be too lazy to read this too? further more roms are updated ALL the time, this tread would be obsolete in days. like what have been posted above, all roms will have a short description in the main page and list it's included feature and changes on each release and screenshots. just load the rom if you like what you read and try from there. easy isn't it?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] ring-bearer:
Sorry, just so bored of schoolmarm answers like the above that help no one ("There's no right answer; you have to try it yourself; you have to read" Sorry, I don't mean to be mean, but so so bored of that unhelpful answer.) Just give the guy some help when he asks or move along. User reviews of ROMs are helpful:

I am using Williyung's mostly pure "826X" 6.5.3 upgrade. It's as fast as stock R3AA, and there are no bugs that affect day-to-day use. Sometimes panels freeze for a while, but not a big deal if you hardly use panels like me. I run SPB Mobile shell on top of it, and it works great. He also has a separate package of useful cabs that you can download, since it's a light ROM.

Good luck!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] deepthroat:
okay, let say i want to help him ...and i found the dream rom here :cool: Enjoy!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] Im Packing:
Seems like you have plenty of time to read my post which you could be reading another thread.

It's the ugly truth. And user reviews of ROMs can be found in their respectful ROM threads. No need to double post from one's ROM in to another thread asking which one is better. You can get everyone's review, but ultimately it is the end user who will make the final decision in which one is best suited for him/her.

x2. That is the ULTIMATE ROM!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] yaboistarr:
I started this thread for one reason, and that was for straight up help. I dont care how many other versions of this thread there are!

so far fizu with his one straight forward post has helped me the most. the day after i managed to flash gtrabs sex1 r5 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=588882 which is great and learned alot about what he does and roms. That not only helped me but brought more traffic to all of gtrabs pages.

:mad:this has become a thread of arrogant people who will post useless replies and think their helping, and those who dont mind helping regardless of what the post is about:)

good responses shorten threads and helps

bad responses only create useless 100paged threads

Everyone was a newbie at one point, even senior members.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] jimk68:
~~

I am a newbie a few years ago, I started out a few years ago with 898 pro, I to to don't have time, but most of us follow the rules and it work for for most Senior or newbie. All the seniors will help you if you ask at specified rom thread. Download the latests roms then look at latest publish date and follow the threads. 10~30m download per rom in the mean time enjoy quality time with familly and check back at the threads at the most 15 min. Nobody can tell you which rom is the best, my wife like ITJ, my daughter like Agent eyecandy. Me I like Agent but my eye sight is going so HD2 stock & Miri HD rom, big font. All the chef roms here is better then original.

Cheers.

good responses shorten threads and helps

Answer: @yaboistar, where to specified rom and chefs, as you stated 1000 over of threads? where you look? You ask every newbie and senior to report at your new thread which is ...... because you start your start a new thread <I started this thread for one reason, and that was for straight up help. I dont care how many other versions of this thread there are!> (I dont care how many other versions of this thread there are! with quota you stated senior are arrogrant...??

bad responses only create useless 100paged threads

Answer: @yaboistar, where to specified rom and chefs, as you stated 1000 over of threads have you PM the publisher for problem?
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] ryousuke:
this thread is pointless... as you're asking for personal opinion which will differ on individual experiences and preferences...

not to mention we all install different additional software which can affect rom performance/stability...

therefore golden rule ALWAYS is TRY TRY TRY

there's only really ~5-10 roms which are being regularly updated, and you can see from the author's initial post what they are aiming to achieve...

therefore should cut down your selection further...

if you asked for specifics maybe someone would give you a direct answer...

if i tell you to use jeperela X2 rom purely on the basis that i like it... doesnt mean you will nor others will feel the same, as you may prefer to use htc manila, may not be compatible with your software, may not run as well for you etc...

alternative is to cook your own... but at this stage seem you'll be brewing a mess more than anything

X-2-TOUCH

"This is basically a revisited TouchX 10.1 rom updated, a keeper for any TouchX 10.1 lovers. (Looks, Speeeeeeeeeed and stability )"

For me is the best because is the fastest ROM ever, have a lock, the visual is so much great, everything works fine , responsive, with no bugs and very fast but you have only to revert the X2 dial to X1 dial because the X2 dial is incompatible with manilla, there's a cab for this.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] yaboistarr:
If you tell me that you like a certain rom for a certain reason i would compare and contrast it to others opinions and then probably try it myself. but i dont have time to try ever rom. usually users opinions help me more than the updates stated on the roms, i try to read most post, but i just end up wasting time . thats why i asked...

If you would only use your brain and "common sense" then you'd have been able to figure out this nonsense without posting threads expecting members to give you a free hand out.

Releasing this rom in the Sapphire / myTouch3G section as it is not compatible with the Dream (I think?)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=624411 <-- I'll be keeping this thread updated

Or see post #4 below

----------------------------------------------------------------

I've been crafting a 32B rom for a few weeks based on the AOSP Eclair branch since the 2.1 code release. So far I've managed to build the source, build a kernel from Cyanogen's source (thanks cm), and get the google apps working from the Milestone dump Maxisma posted a few weeks back (thanks Maxisma).

It works pretty well but now I'm stuck ...

1. How do I get bluetooth working? It won't turn on .. if I search the forum it just brings up a million posts about bluetooth not working on hero roms.

2. My wlan starts but I can't obtain an IP address via dhcp ... which is a bit strange ... Not sure if this is a rom problem though or a local router problem. I compiled the wlan driver after compiling the kernel and copied the wlan.ko into by lib directory.

3. Last thing is ncommander's camera driver. I've tried getting his source but I am a git newbie and have not been able to merge his code into my local Eclair repo. How do I do this? Or if it's easier can I just grab the compiled binaries from a working Eclair rom (I'm not sure which files these would be).

Thanks for any help or pointers ...

i know absolutely nothing about develping roms, but im just trying to provide as much help as posible.
[G1 Android Development] st0kes:
Thanks I appreciate the reply.

Bluetooth is important to me though, I use it every day to listen to podcasts with Doggcatcher.

I think I'll go with your idea and release it as beta, just one big issue to sort first. It is rooted (ro.secure=0 in the right places) and I can get root when I am in "adb shell" but I can't get root using the superuser.apk and included 'su' binary. adb logcat gives me these errors:

D/dalvikvm( 1028): +++ not scanning '/system/lib/libwebcore.so' for 'makeExecutable' (wrong CL)

[ROM] "Android 2.1 for 32B" - No A2SD - Small and light

Here's an Eclair rom I built specially for the 32B Magic / myTouch3G. It is built from the Android 2.1 source that was released a few weeks ago, and has a kernel built from Cyanogen's kernel sources for Eclair (sources here).

This rom does not support A2SD. I've always found it annoying that almost all 32B roms require the ext3 and swap partition on your SD card. The Magic does not need A2SD in my opinion ... and getting rid of A2SD and swap on sd cards eliminates the slowest link in the chain. With a bit more optimisation this could be a very fast rom.

Visually this is almost completely stock, if you like nice themes and graphics for your roms I would suggest MetaMorph, and browsing the Android theme section.

This is a completely new rom to XDA, not anyone elses work rehashed.

Complete with:

- Root privilage/superuser

- Google Apps

- Big APN list

- Busybox

- Android Market working

- Support for wired/wireless tether (get the APK from here -- I'll include it with later releases)

- Support for swap partitions (swapper/droidswap ...)

This is a stable rom, everything works (apart from the snag list below) and there are no force closes.

Snag list

- what doesn't work

- On first boot, make sure you select "com.android.provision.DefaultActivity". I'm working on a fix for this.

- Camera not working. Plan on putting in Ncommander's camera driver for next release.

- Bluetooth not working. <-- I need help with this. Can any devs offer advice?

- Camcorder (doesn't work on any Eclair roms)

- Not compatible for G1/Dream ... you probably wouldn't want it anyway without A2SD

Requirements

- Engineering SPL

- WIPE before installing this rom

I don't really think this needs saying, but I am not responsible if you brick your device. Make sure you know what you are doing! Read >> Sapphire hacking wiki <<

Hey, i have att and i can get a mms but i cant send them, i take a pic with the camera, and when i try to send it it says it is resizing it. It just hangs there for a long time and then it fails.

Do i have to configure something, or is there settings somewhere to change the size.

thanks
[Nexus One General] uansari1:
Check your APN settings for MMS... you probably forgot to set it.
[Nexus One General] tiltman71:
where do i find the apn settings? when i find then do i go into settings wireless and networks, then mobile networks, then access point names, in that it says cingular 410 in there. should i have a different one in there?

thanks
[Nexus One General] uansari1:
When you click on the APN that you have, you should see an entry for MMSC. That's where the server information, which is just a URL, will go for your MMS through AT&T. Search Google or call AT&T for the server address for your MMS, as well as any proxies, if necessary.
[Nexus One General] tiltman71:
Ok i got it, it was missing a few setting.

Thanks to all that helped.

This is by far the best site for the htc.
