Anyone got a good Jelly Bean ROM that'll work on my x? By good, I mean able to play games well and a good battery life.

Would SlimBean be a good ROM to move to?
Its a good rom but if you plan on playing top end games like mc4 and gta vice city I would stick to gb as there is lag when u use touch pads ics is probably better I can play vice city on low graphic setting on miui Australia with no problem

Of your in two minds between stock based Darkforest ROM and cyanogen then there's only one solution for you.
Darkforest mix. Its based on cm7 but integrated a lot of stock also, so it's the best of both worlds.
Everything is functional, Bluetooth, touch pads etc and you get the great customization that comes with cm7 (theme chooser as well)

Unless you want fully working touchpad .... If you do you need to stick to stock.

This is whats always confused me about the Darkforest MIX it says the touchpads dont work like stock but on all games i've tried they're exactly the same: Shadowgun (flawless), PES, Age of Zombies, N.O.V.A 2 all work exactly as they did in stock.
I know people have said about GTA 3 but i bought it and always found it unplayable so i havent installed it again. buttons were horrible

I hadn't noticed DarkForestRom before...
Are DarkForestRom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1496076) and DarkForestMix (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1482104) distinct ROMs or is one a replacement for the other?
I have been using CM 7.2 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1128216), but am considering giving CM 9.0 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1447542) a try...
What is not fully functional about the touchpads in CM? I've used them in some games and they seem to work fine, but I haven't played a lot of games/etc, so I'm wondering what's not fully functional? Just want to know what I'm missing out on.
As I understand it, the stock-based ROMs maintain the Playstation certified-access and so can play the Playstation Pocket games as well as the PSXperia stuff?
Whereas with CM, it's not Playstation-certified anymore, so cannot play the Playstation Pocket games or the PSXperia stuff? Is this the case with DarkForest as well?
Posting my questions here, since I'm also interested on the differences between DarkForest and CM, and hope the answers will help the OP.

I'm looking for an ICS ROM which doesn't mess with my battery because of wifi drivers, half of my ram, can't record video and can't run GTA3 for more than eight seconds (...*cough*CM9*cough*...)
I'm looking for something that can play Shadowgun with Xperia controls, AOSP themed, runs fast, deodexed, isn't a ram or battery hog, and is fast.
Can't choose between Darkforest ICS, ICS++ and many others so I'm asking, what would be the best ROM for gaming and speed?

Lol me too. Im in DarkForest now, but will try ICS++ later this day. Personally i don't have a problem with Darkforest as my problem is in ICS Beta itself that can see in every ICS based ROM, atleast someone said that to me.
But ICS++ looks promising as i really dig the AOSP look and everything.

But does Darkforest play HD games with Xperia controls as expected? Also, what is this *problem* you are talking about?

Wait for official ICS
All the current ICS roms have issues in one way or another and don't work as well as stock gingerbread.

If you want to play games, bug free, stick with GB for now

can someone sum up why certain games don't work plz?
Hey everyone. I'm trying to choose a new rom to switch to as calk seems to be out of the game. I would really like to know everyone's opinion on which Rom provides the best gaming performance. If you make a suggestion please say whether it is an ics or gb Rom. Also feel free to list benchmark results or avg fps in games. I will be testing myself I'm sure and I will update this post with results in the future.

I myself would recommend you to stay in a GB ROM they are much muuuch more stable with games that ICS I am not ROM specific but if I feel like in a trip or like a gamer I always go for GB my games are much more stable
Ex. N.O.V.A. 3 just works 1 of 3 times I open it
Modern Combat 3 the same
Front line Commando doesn't even work etc

Blazer rom works wonders for every game I've thrown at it with great battery life also.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
calkulin l29 or a stock like rom ics
With ICS roms, I had plenty of issues with games. I've been using Calks EL29 and everything has been working well.
Ive never had an issue on mijjhs goodness rom, but I pretty much only use emulators for gaming (lots of fpse)... I get surprisingly good battery life while playing as well...

i was thinking about it and i wanted your info on it, which rom would suit me better, 2.3.4, 2.3.7 or 4.0.4? which rom has everything working and still plays all the games, which rom has the best space optimized and which rom runs the best. your input is welcome. reason i asked is i want to install something i don't have to worry about having to search for a fix.
I like 2.3.4, good battery and perfomance.
The one you'll try.

They say that slimbean has a better battery life than cm10. You should backup your cm10 with nandroid backup via cwm recovery and install slimbean. If you don't like, you restore cm10.
There is no difference between the gaming performance. As far my experience the gaming performance of all cm10 roms sucks...
What slim bean has to offer over cm10 is a bit more smoothness and a bit more battery plus lots of custumization
