Which Rom and Kernel - HTC One X

Hey guys,
I've decided I am going to grab one of these, and am looking at preparing which Rom and Kernel. I am mainly after battery life and smoothness. What do you recommend?
Thanks

Faux kernel without a doubt.
As for roms, try them out yourself. HOX has a lot well known devs and their super cool roms. If I was to recommend, give leedroid a try, try aosp, cm9 and paranoidandroid for sure.

Wait few hours and charmeleon v5 will be upgraded in few hours. And then flash it you don't need any other Rom.

As far as kernel.. Eternity is pretty awsome..... with kernel v3.4 and OTG working ..i thinks thats pretty awesome.....

A few suggestions from my own experience:
1. InsertCoin 7.3.0 with Bricked Kernel 0.3
2. Charmeleon v5.0.0 with Faux Kernel
3. Android Revolution HD 7.1.0 with Franco's Kernel or stay with Stock Kernel..both are great in terms of battery life and performance..

OP here is a good combo for you mate and proof how good both rom and kernel are

A bit hard to answer that. There's many to choose from.
I like ARHD ROMs for the stock look.
LeeDrOiD ROMs for different tweaks
These are just 2 of many good ROMs.

go through the threads and see which one you like the most and try it out..the best thing to do is try and test it that way you can make your own mind up
or just look at my sig and that will tell you all

Yep, ARHD is awesome!
However, the fastest ROM with the best Battery life still is CM9...

I hope to see a official CM9 thread on XDA soon..
I like leedroid - good battery and Aroma installer for some options (but I waiting for stable CM9, because AOSP-style is magnificent)

the CM9 port I mentioned actually is really stable, it just has some bugs, mostly with the camera :/ .. problem with imagesense chip. However, this is the main reason why I'm going to switch back to ARHD, waiting for a stable CM9, like you said

Yup. Agree with fekle. CM9 is the best rom I'd flashed so far. But I revert back to leedroid Because the sense camera is much better. Try Franco's kernel by the way. Give me excellent battery life compared to stock or other kernels
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk
Ive flashed them all, and I still cant choose my ROM
Somehow they are all the same. None of them stands out. Except the themed ones of course. But I miss the wow factor. Something new. It seems like all the devs (or tweakers?) copy each others work, so we ended up having 4 of the same ROM. Only with different names.
Sorry if I offended anyone, but that is just how I see it. I am no dev.

Any kernel that uses the stock 2.17 kernel as a base should greatly improve battery life.

best rom/kernel combo for battery

for best battery performance, If you want to use sense ROM then use ARHD with Stock Kernel{ usually get more than a day's battery and more than 3 hours screen time} or Maximus ROM with franco or faux kernel{ some people reprted 4 to 5 hours of screen time } though have not used MAximus ROM myself...
Use faux or franco kernel with CM10 or AOKP ROM
these custom kernels improve performance as well as battery life
At present i am using CM10 with franco kernel with more than a day's battery and 3hours+ screen time
Sonn gonna try again Trip's CM10 and his new 3.1.10 kernel
In my personal experience for best battery life use a Sense ROM (Stock or modified = ARHD, ViperX etc..) with stock Kernel. Have tried a couple of AOSP JB ROMS few weeks back but battery life was not as impressive as on sense. Standby times on sense ROMs are fantastic.

My recommendation is ARHD with stock kernel
ViperX 2.0.1 with stock kernel. Just wow, just wow.

For some reason Sense ROMs do better when it comes to standby battery life, or so I've read.

Sorry, haha i was that happy with it
With ViperX 2.0.1 i've once got near 5 hours screen on time with i'd say constant use (however i should add that i had the brightness quite low)
Also i've once got 26 hours out of it that's obviously with standby/sleep

All I meant was a good kernel with decent battery with 3.5 hrs of screen on. I don't live in a lala land that I would ask for 5 hrs of screen on.
TBalden's CM9 beta 5 with his kernel with the multitouch fix. Best battery life ever.

Until HTC releases the 2.17 source, we're stuck with the current batch of custom kernels. With no new source, devs really can't do too much.

Recommend a ROM

Later today I'll be trading my Galaxy Nexus for a One X. Of course the first thing I'll be doing is to dev unlock and get flashing.
I don't like Sense so ideally I'd like to use a CM10 based ROM or at least a de-sensed ROM. I would like something relatively stable. I've had a quick look at what's on offer here in the forums but unfortunately don't have time to read through all the replies to figure out just how stable the ROMs may be.
It would be extremely helpful if someone could recommend a ROM based on this information and maybe give me a brief outline of any bugs. Any information at all is helpful - it's a bit overwhelming coming to a new device as I'm sure many of you have experienced before.
Many thanks in advance.

Well the one x is a big phone, so try paranoid android... It's cm10,it's stable and it's pretty cool if you can display the tablet versions of the apps und resize all apps to your liking...
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
If you are into customizations, I would recommend ViperX based on 4.0.4 with sense removed in aroma installer.
I am currently on TeamNDVRu's cm10 a12 jb and really happy about it.

Other than those stated In OP, my wifi strength is a bit low. But doesn't bother me. Battery is good for moderate use, phone calls, emails, xda etc. No gaming for me. Give it a try. There are also other CM10 roms available if you don't like it.

Try ARHD with ST ? Or CoreDroid or Viper ? I personally highly recommend ARHD with ST unless you want full customizations ...

I personally love the work of Owain94 - CM10 Domination ROM build 6 with paranoid customization and for the kernel used either faux or ncx!
Been using it for quite sometime the only instability is the soft reset that happens on the device but overall its a great ROM!
What about jelly bean rom, what are u guys recommend?, all i need is all the vital function is works, like camera

Running the same ROM and loving it. :good:
Currently running CM10 a12 by Tbalden. Only minor issues are that the phone overheats sometimes and CPU values don't seem to stick. Seems fine otherwise.
Thanks for the help everyone!

If it has the same base, just install the new version on top using cwm and without superwipe. If it's a new base, superwipe is recommended and you'll also need to flash the boot.img.

I think best camera is in Tbaldens JB/CM10 ROM( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1786696 )...
But its still poor compared to the Sense camera...And if you used Onexed camera mod it is day and night difference, sadly but true.:/
I tryed al rooms and I can say renovate room 5.2.0 is the best, has the most feature included (camera mode, sound mode etc.) Also a excellent battery life combined with the faux kernal , after 2 hours and a half on standby ( checked 3-4 times the clock ) I still had 100% battery .and you can install without sense if you want .

Hi guy, I'm using Viper X 2.1.0 and would like to experiment a different kernel so I can improve battery life, performance and stability.

It depends on your usage. There are only few kernels why don't you try them all and stick with the one you like the most.

If battery life is the most important thing to you, I would recommand you NCX-217, as smooth as stock kernel, after several days usage, I found it stabel too.
