. Every ROM is different. I do not know what you are looking for.
Are you looking for nice graphics and speed?
I would choose the Core ROM (my favorite)
Speedy & stock like:
HD evolution
Extra or different apps:
Leedroid.
But these questions aren't liked here much, because most of the time it ends up debating what ROM is better. But the case is: no Rom is the best. They are all different. You should just try some ROMS.
Be sure to read a lot about rooting and flashing . (although, you said you have done that).
The first thing should always be do you want a sense rom or not...until you decide that then its pointless listing roms.
hi all,
I bought my one x today!!
I should recive it next week so i got here to look for news\roms\updates and everything about the phone.
my old one is hd mini so it was prett easy with the roms and stuff (android project is dead),but when i got here i got confused hehe to many stuff..hehe
if you can i would like to get a few basic tips to know what's going on..
cheers

You will learn a lot reading the forum A lot of threads have sticky topics, that answer most of the questions you might get, pretty well.
One thing is certain - you will love the phone! The only downside for me is the batterylife, then again, most smartphones don't have great battery life.

Welcome!
Basically, the two different types of Rome are sense based (stock Rom with different modifications) and the aosp roms (built from sources, like cyanogen or aokp).you will find first type in android development forum, the aosp roms and kernels in the original development forum.
While sense roms are much better on things, that are connected to hardware, like battery life, sound quality, camera quality, the aosp roms are smoother (although with jelly bean sense roms, this is arguable) and deliver stock android exporience like nexus.
Now, the siuation with sense roms: since jb was leaked, the main ones are based on the leaks, but you can only flash them with newest hboot (bootlader). And this one you can only flash having the right cid (your location number, the European unlocked and Taiwanese are the only right ones for new hboot)

Firstly , welcome to the One X forum of xda !
I'll start from the basics as you asked .
If you want to flash custom ROMs , you'll have to unlock bootloader , root and flash custom recovery ( CWM or TWRP ) . Due to unknown reasons , HTC is not giving us One X users S-Off bootloader which unlocks a lot of features . But also , it's not much of a restriction if you're used to it . You can follow these 2 noob-proof videos if you want to root your phone .
Please read the quote I'm going to write below as it clarifies the reply of Zlotin's a lot .

There are four types of different ROMs which are Sense-based ( obviously you know what it is already ) , AOSP ( Android Open Source Project ) this ROM will give you the complete experience of android , AOKP ( Android Open Kang Project ) this ROM is much likely same as AOSP but it has more custom features and lastly the MIUI ( Mobile Internet/Mission Impossible User Interface ) this ROM is completely by itself , it gives you a ... kinda iOS UI and other custom features of its own . You can find all these ROMs in both android development and original android development forums . The different between these both forums is that Original means just that...originally built not just themed or apps changed or a few add-ons or tweaks. So there would be the original AOKP release, the official CM releases, original MIUI release, first and only first deodexed stock ROM, and kernels with full source link posted. Anything else is regular developement. The Original Development is to give added recognition to full real developers putting together actual code, not winzipping things together. Now the JB-Sense ROMs are final-versions which are not leaks as Zlotin said . But to flash JB-Sense ROMs , you need to have updated hboot version which is restricted by CIDs . Currently , only Taiwan have the officially released hboot as they have received they JB through OTA . The European ones are leaks not official but still usable .

Aha! New here too and I was wondering about that, thought it was AOSP vs sense then saw a sense version in there .. then I thought its just because theres so much development one forum isnt enough! -which is true too i guess. Anyway its amazing to see so much happening here after the sad story of official support which hurt development for my Atrix so much.
thank you very much guys you've been very helpful and nice i'm glad to join this community, and if ill have further question ill ask

welcome, sorry to be such a bastard but this is not the right section
Hey Guys,
I have been using cyanogenMod 10 Jb but i kinda feel like i need to change to another better ROM(dont care if JB or ics but NOT GB)... i want a ROM that is stable, Very Fast (i cant live with a lag) and nice... any recomendations ?
Please do not clutter the forums with threads like this.
All of the ROMs are special in it's own way. Try the ones available and stay on the ROM that suits you the best.
Thread closed,
YZ.
I am tired of trying and flashing and lagging roms ...
what is the best one to stable ? even if it is 2.3 ... i am kinda of sick of switching roms every week
thanks
From the moderator
The Rom that works for you is the best to use everyone is different....... phones are built different places so they are different.........
Try not to flash on New but on what you need or best like..... find that in a rom and put up with the other inequities just like the rest of us do.......... that is the best advice
Best Rom thread cause Flame wars......... So...........
.......... THREAD CLOSED ...........
A good sense rom with a better battery backup ....
all i need is good battery backup
am happy with cyanogenmod7.2 one day batterybackup am happy with it but i want something new and better
I've tried many rom but didnt like any of them yet soo stick back to cyanogen ..
but if you using or know any better sense rom give me the link to download directly
basically battery depend on background running apps ? and kernel ?
Thread closed,
ROM comparison threads are against forum rules. Best thing to do is to try different Roms for yourself.
