[Q] Original OneX vs OneX in Development section

I just upgraded my Sensation to ONE X.. and YES there is a difference
i unlocked the phone but i have not rooted yet.. and i got a little confused why there are 2 development sections.
What is the difference between oneX and the original oneX
I noticed that after flashing new ROMs you have to flash the boot.img?! is that every time? i`m a little confused since everything was more straight forward with the sensation
Thanks

Since we don't have s-off for our hox, you have to flash boot.img manually every time you change ROMs or if instructed to do so by the rom dev.
As for why there are two different sections, there is an explanatory anouncement post by forum mods describing the two sections.
EDIT: I cant seem to find the anouncement. What it boiled down to is, for a rom/kernel/mod to be included in the original android dev section, it must be original work or add something innovative to an already existing rom. Simple additions or tweak of an already existing one does not qualify a rom to be included in the original section.

Yeah,
Basically "Original" is built from the ground up by the member who posted it
The "Android Development" is a developed version of an existing ROM?

nice, now i understand. So basically if i choose a AOSP or AOKP (which right now from what i read have lot's of issues) i go with the original thread.
It's a shame we do not have S-Off. i don't want to be stuck on Sense but from the looks of it, i might not have a choice (buggy AOSP)

All the AOSP/AOKP/CM10 ROMs are usable as daily drivers, none of them are buggy...

There is a section called Xperia S development available. Go there you would find all the Custom ROMs are lined up. Search and read ROM descriptions and reviews from other users in respective ROM threads. You will get your answer.
And for Stock ROMs, there is a thread called Firmware compilation and it is in the General Section. It should be in the first page of that section. So go there and you will find all the Stock ROMs.

1. try to use the search function, its very easy to use. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1599303
2. try using the xzx2, by the way, custom rom is very relative, it depends upon your taste and preferences. i think all custom roms is battery friendly (correct me on this). just try to read about the custom roms you are aiming for. read about the comments and feedbacks by users who flashed it. it can help you a lot.

[Q] Best Custom ROM for Xperia S

I am disappointed by sony's delayed Jelly Bean upgrade.
Also my phone has almost completed a year. So I am willing to install a good Custom mode.
Please suggest me one with the maximum compatibility, (minimum bugs).
Also suggest step-by-step guide. I am doing it first time you see.
Also can I revert back to official release by flashing my device? Provide some info. on that too.

I hope someone can fix the camera and hdmi lagg bug.

1. This is not Q&A
2. There is a Search option for a reason.

Kindly redirect me to appropriate link.
There are so many posts with similar topics, I need a step-by-step guide for Installing a stable/most popular mod.
Is is Android 4.2.2 with cyanogen 10.1?
I read that several thing are not working. (like fm etc.. ) in that.

If you have a locked bootloader you can only flash stock based Custom Roms. On the other hand an unlocked bootloader does widen your choices (like CM,PAC,AOKP,etc) but as Pannekoek28 said it does increases the chances of bricking your phone.
IT'S AGAINST THE FORUM POLICY TO POST QUESTIONS LIKE WHICH ROM OR KERNEL IS THE BEST, SO YOU HAVE TO GO TO THE DEVELOPMENT SECTION AND FIND OUT YOURSELF AND ALSO YOU HAVE POSTED YOUR QUESTION IN THE WRONG SECTION.
Sent from my LT26i using xda premium

Wrong section, should have been Q&A. And if you'd have done research you wouldn't have to ask this kind of questions.
THREAD CLOSED.

NO Best ROM/Kernel threads

Looking for the best ROM or Kernel? The fastest ROM or Kernel? Head over to the development section and try a few for yourself. We do not allow threads asking about the best/fastest ROM/Kernel at XDA. Please do not create threads comparing ROMs or Kernels. Any of these threads created no matter how they are titled will be closed/deleted.
Thanks!

[Q] inter-ROM Kernel Compatibility

Good Day to you all!
As the thread title states, provided that I'm going to use the same Android version (4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4,...)is it possible that kernels can be installed across different ROMs?
I ask this because I'm planning to use the latest LX CM11 kernel on other 4.4.4 ROMs available in the development forums, the problem though is its modules and its overall compatibility with other ROMs.
Sorry I had to post this here because I still have 4 more posts to make before I'll be allowed to make posts on specific threads other than the Q&A section.
Thanks in advance!
