Stock is too good. But with root only.
Custom ROMs are already modyfied and that's save you to modify stock rom.
So they all good...but biggest differents is "do you want make all work yourself, or you take someone already done this hard work"

Stock --> Stable, all functions working properly.
Custom--> Though stable, not all functions and hardware of your phone will work until implemented.

well for me stock is good with better camera than cm7 rather than what tyrand3 stated...have xloud and bravia engine..but will lag if more and more of usage and app download...im using cm7 right now, and all the lag is gone with the overclocked and system optimization. but no radio....
the theming is great and i customize it to be as perfect as i can..my friend have arc to, and they using stock rather than me but my arc is stand out than most of them....still have batery drain issue though but stock isnt much better either...
its all up to you..you can try to root and use the different rom that has been built, if you dont like it you can change back to stock rom...the guide is all in here if your interested....

I've gone for the best of both at the moment...
Stock ROM: stable, no faults, looks quite pretty!
DoomKernel: rooted, overclocking, extra features
Until CM7 develops some more and has all the features of the stock ROM as a MINIMUM, I won't be changing from what I've got now .
CM 7 is far good than stock rom in speed, there is no lag like stock rom
but no radio
Previously Gameloft games was not running smoothly,now problem solved
More internal memory and all apps are now downloaded at sd so no more out of memory notification..themes are great, right now i'm using ICS theme, it's cool..

SE Tweaked v0.7 is super smooth with all stock features. Teamed with Doomkernel it is blindingly fast or with Blendkernel for smoothness and good battery. I have tried CM7 and SE Tweaked is better if only because you still get the Bravia engine.

No probs. I was one of the first to try SE Tweaked V0.1 and saw the improvement there over stock. I had a go with the first three weeklies from the FXP team and thought that they are doing a great job but the one thing I couldn't get over was how dull the display looked. That is why I am back with your ROM and V0.7 is really really good. I have OC'd to 1.6gHz and I must say the Arc is completely lag free and very fast with a super bright display.
Which is better, CM9 or CM10?
With all the hard work of the FXP team, it's extremely difficult to choose between CyanogenMod 9 and CyanogenMod 10
I was wondering, if through the power of the XDA forums, people would be so kind as to help me out a bit, maybe offer an opinion, or tell me the benefits of each.
Obviously I've read through both threads and found problems and errors, but due to the constant updates, I never know if these errors still exist or not
Hopefully someone can help me decide between CM9 and CM10 or advise me to stick to my Sony stock based rom at the moment
Thanks!
- Jack
There are total three versions released by FXP.
1. CM7 - Ginger bread
2, CM9 - Ice Cream Sandwich
3. CM10 - Jellybean
Right now CM9 is in beta and CM10 is in alpha. Where CM7 is in stable mode means everything is working and most of the problems got solved.
Regarding CM9, its laggy compare to CM10 - my personal experience. But CM9 it is in beta, where it fits for daily use.
Regarding CM10, this ROM is in alpha, with fixes (posted in CM10 thread) it is also suit for daily use.
What I want to say is stay with GB, flash CM10 once the rom moved to beta version or flash CM7 for fast and smooth ROM. :highfive:

One thing I like about ICS is the action bar though
Are there any app incompatibilities like apps that only work with ICS+ or do they all work with GB?

Cm10 is better
Sent from my Xperia Arc using Tapatalk 2
Why would you say that is?
CM9 cuz its more stable than CM10.
I use CM 9.1 because it supports flash... CM10 is a lot more fluid than CM9, but lack of flash support is a huge deal for me.
I chose to try out CM10 and I don't think I'm going back
If you install cm10, there is a simple way to get flash working just as it does on Ics, tested it myself with flash and dolphin browser if you're interested I can link you to the apk

CM9 vs CM10?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
sorry but...Neither One Nor the Other .in My opinion!
What I like most about JB/CM10 is the options in the notification bar, like quick reply, call (for texts), and call back or message (for calls) not to mention the incredible battery life i get when my phone is in standby (i think it averages 0.5%/h, which is much lower than all the other roms I tried, for GB and ICS). But I'm using an xperia pro (since we share a forum) so it might not be the same... but one thing i don't like about CM10 is the camera (have they fixed that in fxp138?) and the random crashes every now and then. But it's not that bad.
If you want tasted ICS and GB look, just try flash Jelly Sandwich by Maxxio 1998. Just stable... Use until CM10 get the beta version...

PAC is one of the best Roms available for the Xperia S in my opinion.
It is super smooth, easily costumizable and stable.
In the new Version it even contains some Sony Features like Walkman and launcher.

[Q] Is CM10 based on JellyBean?
Sorry if that's a dumb question, I'm pretty new to this as well. I'm currently running XTX8. I tried XTX9 but it was very slow and laggy so I reverted back to XTX8. I wanted to try CM9.1 but couldn't get it installed, so just did a restore as it was late at night. It's just I didn't consider CM10 as I thought it was based on JB, and I wanted something that's stable and not still being 'developed' as such.

I tried many roms, yet I returned to stock pre-rooted .55. Maybe I'm noob, but I prefere stock Sony widgets and UI. Waiting for 4.1.2 from Sony.

I wouldn't count on it...my experience has always been the ROM which comes with the phone on the day of its release, always stays the most optimized. Makes sense because while they're creating the phone from scratch, they're building the software for it. Afterwards they're focused on designing newer models and for the older ones it's just "patching" something to make it work on something it wasn't designed for. It will work and most of the time work fine but it's just not that smooth.
I'm using stock .55 rooted. I would love to use any CM based ROM but IMO the image quality is not up to par with Stock ROMS. I could live with a weaker camera quality, but the screen quality is not as good. And the screen is the most important thing. I'm not talking about Bravia, just feel the colors, gradients, etc. all seem much sharper in stock ROMs as opposed to CM based ROMS. Hopefully, when JB is released, those problems will be gone.
CM10.1 open semc 0.4... I tried them allbost all and i thint this one is the smoothest

It's about tastes, you have to search for what CM suits you, or if you want stock features, Ultimate HD based on stock.

Yeah, favoring superjellybean. If you're gonna tell an advice about ROMs, at least be neutral if you're not going to say the actual truth or give correct "examples" as you say. The xperia Z thing is something relatively new, it actually looks like ICS imo, and xperia's launcher isn't the best thing ever, let's be clear on it, on my side, I ran away from ICS stock because I didn't liked the statusbar at all, it's ugly compared to JB blueish/samsung's. (totally my own opinion). You did wrote that, but like saying "But hey.. This one has things but it's bad, this one too but it's bad, use this one." Not the first time I see that kind of advertisement...
Look, thanks to FXP we have CM available. The "official" is the second one you mentioned, that's the base for the other CM10 ROMs such as Super Jelly Bean, SlimBean, Racing Bean, etc. If you want the cleanish thing to start from scrach, download the official one, if you want things added "after-market", go search at the Arc/s Android Development forum and give the CM10 roms a try, I hope that answers your question~
