[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enigma1nz:
After giving various versions of x826 and NRG a good run, I, regretfully, had to revert back to Nuts. For me the stability and battery life outweighed the eye candy and customisation, even CHT and LeCiel's offerings could not compel me to stay.

The biggest issues for me were unexpected shutdowns with lack of response and constant battery out resets in order to function. It came to a point of me not knowing what to expect every time I left my X1 for more than a minute, I missed calls, messages and e-mails because my X1 slept itself to death.

Battery life was not as great as many described when recommending both of the above ROM series to me. Another problem was X1 becoming sluggish overall with memory leaks noted over a day use. I understand NRGZ's inability to test ROMs, however, constant almost daily releases with very little overall benefit and each buggier than the next do very little to instill confidence. I need a functioning device, not a flashing exercise toy, I was feeling frustrated and angry every time yet another eye candy ROM had to be reset, hard reset, re-flashed to yet another release and the vicious cycle started again.

So I flashed back to my all-time favorite MrRusch's Nuts and it feels like coming home. Please note, I kept 10.9 6.1 Nuts, rather than 10.10 6.5 update.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lunie:
Using 826x CHT 2018. Never had a more reliable rom in my life. It's a god damn shame, I really dont like the NRG series, the 4 start colums, the programs, and all the bugs...ugh I really do not want. Although I appreciate his work he really should look into this since he's releasing it for us with the same bugs and bloated software. We need more simplicity and stability in our roms and 826x had it all. ♥

^I'll actually have to disagree with teh above post, battery life lasts a long time on my x1. I use everything too, including wi-fi. 6 hours of music 1 hour of wi-fi takes up half the battery. :3
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manishabanzadeh:
agree with Lunie,I tried more than 7 or 8 enery roms and also x826 sence 2018 & 2019 & many other roms but I came back to x826 2018,it is nice and with no problem.stable & fast

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enigma1nz:
What I meant was not that the battery life is bad, but rather that I had better battery performance out of ROMs OTHER than the ones listed. The worst in terms of battery life was NRG.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chaoscreater:
Stuff? As in his X1? I read his blog and he only mentioned he lost some of the files for his Kitchen, u know, the tools the the chef or rom makers use when they design the roms......i haven't seen any mention of him losing his phone though.

why's that? coz his X1 got stolen??

Anyway, here's my input on the two roms. I've ALWAYS used and love Energy roms, especially on my HTC Touch Pro and HTC Touch Pro 2. So when I got my Xperia X1 last week, of course the first thing I did was test out the Energy Rom on it. To my disappointment, it was laggy and crap. Battery drains like crazy as well (and yes I did a hardreset after flashing it, like you always do).

Then, I heard about the 826X rom and tried it 2 days ago. God damn, it's amazingly fast. It's pretty damn responsive and no lags whatsoever. Sure it's not as "pretty" or customizable as the Energy rom, but who the hell cares?? Once you know how to use XDA_UC or SASHIMI, those don't matter at all. I've had my SASHIMI setup to install everything I need, all that takes a few hours to manually install anyway so in the end, the 826X rom wins.

However, the 826X rom also uses up battery quickly, and I think it uses up faster than the Energy rom, i'm not too sure but it seems like it at least.......

I recommend anyone new to using the Xperia X1 to try out the 826X rom first. You'd find that performance, stability and most importantly speed is more important than eye candy. No point using Energy rom when it's slow and laggy like **** when you make a text, or try to multitask many programs at once, or try to move around the menu quickly, etc etc.......you'd find that the eye candy is useless and all you get is frustration on using it, compared to using 826X rom.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fsjon:
826x is back!

He already got his x1 but he has lost his kitchen...so his new roms may not be as great (or even better!) than what he had prior to him having all his stuff stolen. I haven't tried his newer roms yet since I have switched over to a HD2...and will soon run android on NAND (still currently running on SD). If you think NRG rom battery life is bad, try running android. I can not even last for more than 14hrs!

On my count, 826x rom wins hands down without scoring. I originally got the x1 flashed with NRG, used it for a week and had to switch to another rom. Tried it with NRG's newer roms, than a few other ones on the way till I reached 826x.

The battery life and stability is amazing on 826x rom...I had to switched back to x1 yesterday since I will not be near a power supply for the HD2. I had 2 exchanged email setup, 10mins phone calls, 6hrs of music (using S2P), about 1hr of online time through 3G and some occasional txt. Phone left the charger at 5am, and by the time I got back home at 10pm, I still have 30% of battery life left! No crash, no hang!

I bought my X1 about a year ago and I've flashed, tested so many ROMs, including:

NRGZ28's Energy ROMs

gtrab's PURE and BAREBONE ROMs

Spikegotti's ROMs

MrRusch's TouchX ROMs

faryaab's F1 ROMs

and Willy's 826x ROMs

and all other ROMs.

For me the best, stable WM6.5.X or WM6.5 ROMs without Sense 2.5 are gtrab's WM6.5 and faryaab's Pure WM6.5.X.

Who prefers stock X1 WM6.1 with Sense 2.5, I recommend MrRusch's TouchX 10.10 OMG version. Very fast and stable ROM. I love this ROM but WM6.1 is old for me. :D

I also flashed and tested NRGZ28's 17Jan. Energy ROM with GTX skin. It's just beautiful, eye-candy ROM. But it's laggy, and not stable for long time use.

I've flashed my X1 about 30 times with different ROMs and tested. But everytime I go back to Willy's 826x ROMs. His ROMs are very stable, fast, with good battery life and good for long time use.

Who wants WM6.5.3 ROM with Sense 2.5 I strongly recommend to test his 23680 bulid with all fixes.

And who prefers battery life can flash his 28237 build.

I'm big fan of Willy's 826x ROMs and waiting for his another cool, fast, stable ROMs.

BTW he's away from his blog for a long time, and today I read this from his blog's comments:

L3x5 said...

"willy is currently moving to a new kitchen.. wait, friends.. he will release a super ROM !! (y) +1 >> hope dual boot with android ^_^ .

back n still used ROM 826x WM 6.5.3 build 28237 - Sense 2018, really cool,stable n long batt life."

I'm waitin for it :p

P.S. sorry for bad english, I'm from Azerbaijan.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manishabanzadeh:

i have my xperia for about a month now, and i have tried a couple of roms.

energy roms look nice, but they are very slow.

i think sense 2.5 is just slow on xperia processor, so i tried Touch-IT Xperience WWE_build21874 with sense 2.1 and it's running very smooth.

are there any other good roms with wm 6.5 or 6.5.x with sense 2.1??

thanks!
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bsb-brian:
Try 826x WM6.5.3 build 23680. It's very fast, smooth and stable.

Download link for ROM is broken, but I found alternate from comments, use it: http://www.multiupload.com/7RVNNMXSXU

Before flashing use task29.

Flash.

After flashing hard reset your device.

And after hard reset install all fixes.

Then soft reset.

P.S. This ROM haven't CHT in it. But if you want you can install CHT.

I'm using this ROM with CHT 2.0 + Editor 2.0. Works excellent for me! ;)
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bsb-brian:
NICE!!! :D

I loved it when first time I flashed 28237 build. Tested it for GPS, Music Player, text messaging, calls and it had great battery life. But this ROM was a little buggy, some SODs, hangs, freezes...

But I think this time Willy will make bugless version of this ROM. ;)
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phobius87:
ok, i'll try this rom. i hope it's stable and fast. i don't like co0kie home tab anyway, becose it allways slows down the device.

thanks for the reply!

ps

if anybody knows any other good rom with sense 2.1, please tell.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bsb-brian:
not at all.

sorry me, but I forgot to note that this ROM with Sense 2.5, not 2.1. but works very good as 2.1.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phobius87:
thanks brian. i'm tryin' it.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] manishabanzadeh:

I'll try it again... :D
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ted presley:

Anyone has SOD in x826? Or its me only....
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] x2umer:
826x rom has issues..Energy is good but bad 1%batter metery

Yes I start 826x with your suggested rom with CHT 1.8. But too much hangs, screen goes off without any reason. battery meter freezes at 60% and then after two resets goes to 0% but you know at 0% stayed full night till morning alarm by spb. What was that.. I don't know...

captured snaps by HTC camera gave pictures with cross on them , unable to open them in HTC manila and Xperia freezed.. again reset..

No screen on tweek during call...

Xperia camera and Htc manila camera have issues in 826 rom...

I dont know about your guys but for me Energy rom is good. Latest is slow but no freezing..........

yes Of-course Done task29 before flashing...

Now returning back to Energy latest rom....

Y Y Y Y Y ???i sold my HTC diamond.. I miss it...:(
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orkhanahmadov:
energy ROMs isn't stable. there're so much apps but most of them usefull or not fully compatible with X1.

826x build 28237 has good battery life but also has so many SoD, issues.

My favourite and most stable, fast 826x ROM is 23680 build with fixes. I strongly recommend you to test this ROM. Sense works like you're using HD2 not X1. :D

P.S. download link for ROM is broken, but you can fink another mirrors from comments.

BTW, I'm currently using ultrashot's new Dynamics GTX 2.0.1 ROM with fixes. It's WM6.5.3 with Manila 2.1. Very fast, beautiful and stable ROM...
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] x2umer:
Thank-you very much for your guidance. Today I'll try your suggested 826x rom first an then later on Dynamics...and will let you know....Today Energy rom in my xperia but i am not satisfied as spb alarm didn't wake me on time for office,it was running but no sound, compatibility issue? and I went late.. but SPB alarm was perfect with 826x.

One more thing I'll install CHT 2.0, is it safe with this rom.....??
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orkhanahmadov:
not at all. hope you'll like that build... :D

off course safe, but using CHT slowes down Sense. Sense faster with no customizations.

yes, I agree. some of Sense ROMs (including 826x) have problem with alarm. If I remember right, 23680 build also have this problem. But i'm using G-Alarm (like SPB Alarm), it solves this issue.

P.S. maybe you already know, but for more stability flash 23680 build with this procedure:

task29 -> flash ROM -> hard reset ->>>> soft reset -> install all fixes -> soft reset -> ready! install what you want :D
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] x2umer:
I am using this rom 23680 from last 24 hours. battery meter is good, running slowly downwardly.

I flashed like you described but forgot to hard reset but I'll again flash in case any problem. How to wake up screen during call? it always goes to sleep. any setting for this. or its impossible in 826x rom.

I install CHT 1.5.5 in it. running smoothly.

Thanks for your help.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orkhanahmadov:
Most of X1 custom ROMs have bad battery reading issues (for example, battery shows 0% but you can use device for hours. or sometimes battery meter shows 40-60% but after soft reset it shows 0% and device turns off). But for me 826x 23680 is stable about battery meter.

Use this tweak: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=413798

It prevents device from sleep mode during calls.

I didn't try it with 826x 23680 ROM, but it should work.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] x2umer:
A person was saying in diamond forum under nosleep.cab file that...

"What's so bad about the screen blanking out during a call?"

He is right , what's so bad about it.

.....Nothing....

I can live with default sleeping during call...instead of taking risk of installing nosleep call.cab which they also claimed uninstallable.

Thanks for suggestion , 23680 finally giving me good result in daily use. I must say a use-able ROM.;)
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orkhanahmadov:
Yeah, it's not big problem if device switches to sleep mode during calls. It's default setting for WM, saves battery.

BTW, disabling sleep mode during calls also possible with XperiaTweak app. But this app uses clean .NET Framework 3.5. But most of custom ROMs (also 826x series) have cooked-in Framework 3.5 (or maybe 3.7) and it becomes some kind of tangled. Because of it XperiaTweak crashes when starts.

not at all. for the other time you can also try ultrashot's Dynamics ROM...

enjoy ;)
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ultrashot:
XperiaTweak crashes on the most of ROMs because of PanelManager registry entries absence.

Ok I am downloading Dynamics 6.5 / 2.0.5. But i will not flash unless i see previews of this rom. What about its graphics? beautiful icons like x826 and energy rom are present or not. HTC messaging present. what aout battery life?

Can you please give me screen shots? I'll try this rom.

Currently I am facing an error while using 23680 x826 rom. Screen complety goes to sleep, power button pressing stop working but if someone call , bells rings , on pressing hard key call button, listen to call and still phone in sleeping mod. only soft reset resolve problem. did you experience this issue?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orkhanahmadov:
If i remember right, no I never had this issue... 826x 23680 ROM is most stable Sense ROM for me. If you frequently have this issue hard-reset and test again.

I'm currently using "Dynamics GTX 2.0.5f WWE" ROM. It's WM6.5.3 with zero customized, stock Sense 2.5.

You can find some screenshots there: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11687842&postcount=69

the only customization for Sense is...there's not HTC Messaging Client (WM's stock messaging client always works, loads faster than Sense's).

Also battery life is good. All the day I'm playing, listening to music at the end of day still remains ~30% battery. BTW, I'm using this ROM abot 2 weeks but I never had "bad battery reading" issue on Dynamics 2.0.5f.
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] x2umer:
I flashed my xperia with Dynamics GTX 2.0.5 rom 6.5. But zero customization.HTC camera capturing snap is not active, like 23680. No fancy task bar. Battery life equal to x826 23680 rom. And some times in TF3D touching msg didn't work for any reply screen....I need to go manually for all msging and then reply....Pls suggest any task bar for it, may be later I'll againg try for this rom(Dynamics)

I am reverting back to 23780 rom. As for me Sense 2.5 with HTC messaging , opera 10, task bar, pim back up with fancy icon is more important. Satisfied me. CHT 1.8.5 is ok with both. :).

I need you suggestion about Photo manager made for xperiax1. resco photo beta5b not very much friendly or impressive. resco photo 7 is good but not compatible with xperiax1. what you use for photo editing?and which version of coreplayer made for xperia x1?must be C----d.

Did you use TCMP player?
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orkhanahmadov:
Yes, Dynamics ROM still have some issues... I'm also facing that problems. but it's good, stable ROM, better than energy ROMs, just needs some fixes.

yeah, 826x ROM's taskbar is more beautiful, but I'm satisfied with stock WM taskbar. you can search forum for custom taskbars.

As i know there's not any photo manager app that made exclusively for Xperia.

I'm using "Resco Photo Manager Pro 7.11". It's fully compatible and works great with X1.

and about coreplayer and TCMP, I can't say anything... I never used them. WMP and HTC's stock Full Screen Player is always enough for me :)

anyway, you can search forum or google for other alternate apps, customizations, tweaks. ;)

Use this procedure to install CHT: Disable Sense > Install CHT > soft reset > Install CHT Editor > soft reset > Enable Sense

If you mean WM6.5 (not 6.5.3 or 6.5.5) I recommend you gtrab's Pure ROM. For me it's most stable custom ROM for X1 with all XPeria stuff (but without Sense).

But I love WM6.5.X, because it's more eyecandy and fingerfriendly.

I'm currently using Dynamics ROM for a month. It's stable ROM, maybe needs some little fixes but very good for daily use.

SoD - Sleep of Death, when the device goes to sleep and you can't wake it up.

The only solution is pull out battery.

Bad flashes, corrupted system files, app conflicts, bad modifications cause SoD.
