Introduction

This is a modified and optimized version of the stock 2.1 Generic 2.1.A.0.435 Sony-Ericsson ROM. This is intended to give everyone dev-level performance out of the box, and give themers and modders a base ROM to start with.

PLEASE MAKE REQUESTS.

Installation

Download ROM and place on your SD card

Boot into xRecovery

Flash the attached file with xRecovery by using "Install custom zip"

IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY ON .435 FIRMWARE: Flash this with Flash Tool.

Reboot and be patient. First boot can take several minutes at the boot animation. This is normal.

On first boot you'll get a "Complete action using..." screen with LauncherPro and the Setup Wizard. You can choose either.

OPTIONAL: Uninstall the Setup Wizard by holding it over the trash can until "Drop to uninstall" appears.

Check out this link after installation for tips on LauncherPro: http://androinica.com/2010/08/23/11-ways-to-get-the-most-out-of-launcherpro/

I recommend at least changing the opening Speeds to 10 (Prefrences > Advanced Settings > Opening speed). That makes the phone feel a lot more responsive.
