What are you saying lol slimbean has the aokp tweaks and customization and it's 89mb, super jb is 125mb and doesn't have interface tweaks at all..
It's about tastes, you have to search for what CM suits you, or if you want stock features, Ultimate HD based on stock.

Your first and last link are the same ROM, just uploaded at different places.
Creator/developer is the same team.

Hey lad, i wrote it as example to make it easier to understand.
Last time i tried slim bean (long time ago) it was heavy and had its own slimbean logo etc etc.
Super jb got xperia z style status bar and launcher.
I also wrote that it was all up to OP
your post was senseless...

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~

[Q] CM9 vs CM10?

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

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...

Jelly Sandwich and Xperia ICS & JB Remix is builded on stock ICS. Currently Im using Xperia ICS & JB Remix and it's great! A lot of free ram, zero lags and no bloatware apps like : Timescape and FB.

[Q] [Arc S] Which is best mod ROM? Stable,light,fast, secure?

Hi everyone,
I bought an Arc S for 10 days.
t 'a great terminal, but I can not notice that with the stock rom, after a small number of installed and apps moved to SD, the rom has some spots, lags, and the free ram (of his already poor) falls always below 100mb (and I do not use facebook, twitter, or whats'up Timescape real time notification).
I have root my phone, and removed some unused system app. I have used "autostarts" to disable unuseful app that starts at the boot, and using a task killer to free memory. When I use the task killer (FAST REBOOT PRO) I have reached 160 mb free max.
At this point, I would switch to a modified rom because I read that there are stable versions, in which everything works fine (camera / video included).
What do you recommend?
It 's my main phone, and I need that everything works and that does not have bugs.
I use it to take pictures, video, navigate 3G/WiFi, and as a navigator using Navigon.
What rom do you recommend to install for this phone fully functional but more powerful (of course ICS or Jelly Bean)? and Which kernel?
XperienceD said:
All these threads below are asking the same thing, "What's the best", and the general consensus is that there isn't a "best", it's all about personal preference. And given how many ROMs and kernels there are you'll be hard pushed to find someone that has been able to use them all to give a significant review between the differences.

If you leave as is, it's pretty good. A very little battery drain but if you know how to tweak it, it's even better.

AW: what rom would you recommend?
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.

In my opinion read and learn how to flash, root...etc and try lots of roms and you ll find your suitable rom

[Q] What Custom ROM are you on, and for how long?

As the title suggests, what custom firmware (or even stock) are you using on your Xperia S? How long have you been using it and what do you like the most about it?
Personally I've been using FXP's CM10 (currently on 209 now) for at least about 3-4 months now and although I really love how smooth and fast everything is sometimes I miss the stock apps from sony like the camera app and sometimes even the look and feel of the stock rom and ofcourse stability.
I tried Paranoid Android about a month ago but quickly went back to CM10.
How about you guys?
Hi
Thanks for this usefull thread... I am using XZX2 done by niaboc79 as my custom rom.. Previously i am on XTX7 by the same niaboc79. I tried all the custom rom.. Around 8 . But this one is the most superb and beautiful rom i ever used. Its feels like a Xperia Z in my hand... Superb rom. No problem for me still now.. All the games are working very smoothly... I like this rom very very much...
