There's a thread on developing a MIUI rom here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1146406
I suspect that once work on CM7 is complete we will start to see a lot more ROMs based on that.

Hi ,
Thank you very much for the information.
I am really excited to have Cyanogenmod in xperia arc.
Will be eagerly waiting for the release of other roms as well.
Cyanogenmod is really an awesome work. Thanks to the development team.
Thanks

CM9 is firmware, is a source
FXP is a team which assembles firmware for Xperia phones from cm9 sources making it workable on our smartphones.
Relation of the CM and the FXP project, and FXP in general.
I understand that the FreeXperia project (a.k.a. FXP) is working on porting CM to the Xperia devices.
However, I could not find any home of the FreeXperia project.
Where can I find out more about them?
(Their background, goals, the design philosophy, etc.)
Furthermore, I don't understand is why are there two different sets of releases: the "official" ones from CM, and the ones done directly by FXP.
What is the difference between these versions?
What is the interaction between them?
Thank you for explaining!

there are some devices(from the xperia empire) which are not officilly supported by the official CM team.. So what FXP does is porting the CM firmware to all the xperia smartphones..
there is not much difference between these..
the fxp team uses the cm official source and compiles it fo the xperia empire..

The Xperia Pro is not (yet) officially supported by CM, but they are providing nightlies and RCs now.
Are you saying that these builds are exactly the same as their FXP counterparts?
If they are exactly the same, then what is the point?
If there are differences, then what are those?
("Not much difference" not quite the answer I am looking for.)
Thank you for explaining!

If you see CM7 there's not much difference between the two..
This I can say from personal experience..
And CM9 is not yet supported officially.. So the FXP brings CM9 for my device..

Best Rom Sony Arc s Lt18i

Hello guys, I wanted to root my sony ericsson Arc s Lt18i, I realize little of the subject, since'm through to those searching the forum a bit but I had many doubts.
What is the best is the best ROM for my phone (CM9.1)?
I have the bootloader unlocked and have version 4.0.4 (4.1.B.0.431).
How do I root?
I'm afraid of making blunders ...
Thank you guys.
Read one of the other numerous threads asking the same question.
Sent from my CM9'd Arc
As XperienceD said search around for similar threads. The best ROM is: the one that suits you're needs, see what each ROM as to offer and then decide...
Following the original question.. The led notification problems on the stock ICS Rom has been solved in some custom Rom?

hi mate
the best rom for arc/arc s will be jellysandwhich rom with xarc kernel
smoothest and the lightest
almost all hd games smooth and it roxx
i've been using jellysandwich, but with latest update, and the apps2sd auto support, that doesn't work, i can't use link2sd, so pretty bad. JJ Hybrid, it's kind nice, but the keyboard on browser lags as hell
so far I know the best rom is Xperia Ice Bean 4.2n by jader see this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1786871 and his working on new projects called Xperia Ice Bean X , still with some bugs, but he is working on themhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1863036
This is definitely a matter of opinion, but I always feel at home and also feel I get the most out of my device in terms of customization, theme wise and hardware tweaking in general with CyanogenMod.
I'm currently running CM9 and I have no issues, battery is great, no choppy performance issues and with theme choose, everything looks great to the eye.

If you don't care about graphical user interface ,defintely JJ hybrid rom is great (fast - compatible with games - has ROM control as well) ,few bugs though like wifi hotspot http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1537717
If you care about having nice user interface with reasonable game performance with lots of free ram available you can try Jelly sandwich http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1836993 or the Remix http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1884958
Also Xperia Purness worth a try as well http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1788701
For the Kernel i always advice to use stock kernel in order to avoid battery drain issues.

I'm using JELLY SANDWICH 6.1 with arc night kernel. I think you should try this ROM. This ROM has already rooted.
If you want a ROM with stability, you shoud try Arconium ICS 4.0.

Can i get Stock JB rom for Xperia Ion?

Hi guys:
My question that if we can find a stock JB rom exactly like the Nexus 4 rom but working on Xperia Ion?? And what is AKOP and AOSP roms?​
Sony not yet released any JB ROM/ Firmware for iON. It's due in May.
You will get official JB fw from the end of May.
AOSP means Android Open Source Project.
It is the "stock ROM" (or pure vanilla ROM) made by Google and is Open Source.
Lots of custom ROMs base on this rom, e.g. CyanogenMod, Panaroid Android, etc.
AOKP (Android Open Kang Projecy) is a custom ROM base on AOSP.

It depends on which ion you have. The international versions that can have the bootloader unlocked there is a CM10.0 (JB) ROM out. If you have at&t one then you're out of luck.

@ The $niper : Read the above. You were asked to check the Development section. Unless you check the development section properly, asking questions won't be helping much.

I had typed an explanation for you with the differences between all those roms, but then I figured that everything I said could be easily Google'd, and if you didn't bother doing that, I shouldn't bother explaining what every rom is and waste my time...
Just know: AOSP is stock Android (it's what's on the Nexus 4, Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 7 and Nexus 10, with a bit of a different layout for the tablets). CM, AOKP, Slim Bean and Paranoid Android (you should check PA out as well) are all basically AOSP with some extra options. The only way of really knowing them all is trying them. They're all pretty much the same but focus on a different aspect (AOKP and CM are in my opinion pretty much the same though). Also every rom has some screenshots in the thread to show what's new or different, just take a look at those.
One major advantage that all of the custom roms that I mentioned have over AOSP is that they support the theme engine, so you can easily change the looks by installing a theme app. There's lots of those on the Play Store. They're a handy way of changing the looks of your phone once in a while without having to flash a new rom.

The reason why i don't search on google that i am not very good with english language so i can't ream much to find the answer....
So what you are trying to told me that CM and AOKP both are stock android roms right? I tried them both and i saw them both exactly the same , just so small defferents.
Thank you because now i know what i have to search for: "JB 4.2 from CM or AOKP".
I tried both AOKP and CM10 , but also both have the same Wifi problem , it can't find any network.​

The only difference, pretty much, is the launcher is trubutch in cm and in google aosp its googles clean rom
But cyanogen mod gives you more options
And it has the tmobile theme engine
So you can do anything with cyanogenmod and almost anything with aosp

They're already on stable KitKat roms and we're still struggling here on older versions
Can the devs port Z roms here so that we can test/ use and see how they work

There are ZL cm11 nightlies as well... though I don't see alot of activity in the CM11 thread... I haven't tried it myself at this point... (I did something screwy when I first tried the Omni 4.4 rom - think it may have been my gapps I installed - which bootlooped my phone. I haven't tried it again since...)

Ah my apologies, i wasn't clear, i was pointing towards these Roms-
[ROM] [Stable #2] [KitKat] [Official] [Z] [BeanStalk-4.4015] [06-DEC]
and
[KitKat][4.4.1][Omni]Team Asylum Omni 4.4.1 Naughties™ - Slim, Fast and Black Rum™
It would be nice to have a slimbean build for the ZL... (I ran that for a while on the S3...)
The Xpertia TX users have a patch, that can convert just about any Xperia T rom to one suiting their phone. I wonder if its possible for us to get the same as our hardware is almost identical.

any stable custom rom for xperia s?

i read plenty of blogs about this every custom roms have some major bugs.can anyone tell me which custom rom had less bugs?

First of all, wrong section.
Now to your question, openSEMC or the AOSP one if you want aosp based ROM, the AOSP one is claimed to be more stable, but with lesser option. If you want stock based, then there is only a few to choose from. Personally i will say go with aosp based, but its up to you. Paranoid is a nice one as well, all AOSP based ROM shares same bug as in openSEMC

Then go with AOSP then, its pure android, openSEMC is unofficial cyanogen mod for xperia s, you will have to unlock your bootloader first to use any of them

AOSP/OpenSEMCis out of the question with locked bootloader. You have to stick to stock based rom.
Difference between AOSP and OpenSEMC is customization. You can't flash these roms unless you unlock your bootloader.

Firstly - Please, please post in the appropriate section. This is a development thread and not the place for such posts.
Secondly - Do some research yourself, read all the threads , you'll surely find what you are looking for.
Thirdly - If you are locked bootloader, forget about all the CyanogenMod or AOSP ROM's. There's just one CM10 ROM that works on locked bootloader. This is because you can't change the kernel on locked bootloader's
And last - Google all your doubts. Google is your friend. You'll get answers a lot more quicker.

miui works with locked bootloader,i saw it.but it have plenty of bugs.so i am gonna stick with stock rom. so sad..
In my opinion, stock is the best. Just came back from OpenSEMC KitKat. Rayman's ROM is great for sure, however, the user interface is a bit laggy and it's quite buggy.
So there's no need to be sad at all.

i love ExistenZ rom but i prefer black so mine is stock deodex + black system apps + zu framework by jjwrong + xperia z1 task switcher + full screen caller mod by rajeev + few extra themes = perfect rom i love this combo for speed,looks and mediocre battery.keep in mind i am a heavy user with 100+ apps installed.
I'm more of a performance guy...

When you mention AOSP, you mean this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2273821 ?
If you looking for a stock based rom then there are many Trinity, MIUI, etc or else you can try PAC 4.1.2 or PAC 4.2.2 which is also stable enough..
