My X8 has 2.1.1.C.0.0 i want to get rid of 2.1 and try 2.2 and 2.3 roms...i want you to give me some ideas which rom to try on...i want app2sd native of course cause in 2.1 i have a partition with all my apps radio and no reboots ! is there any rom that fullfil my standards? even VGA cam i don't mind !

>Camera Crashing after Couple of Shots
>Bluetooth Upload/Download Icon not showing
>Bluetooth Headset sometime Audio skips
>and some Status Icon is not themed right(like FM icon)
If you can live with that, and this ROM is Good for you, Battery life really depends on how you use you're phone, i can get atleast 2days on medium use.
Not meant to be rude but i would just start to read cooked roms topics FIRST post and you will find all your answers.
Every chefs has a Menù, there isn't any waitress around.
Hi, all. Can't find original ROM with 2.0.1.A.0.47 firmware for X8 anywhere Does anyone have it? I need it...

I m searching the best rom for WildFire.
i l tryet all are on this section ... an nothing like s me.
For exemple : Stock roms not working Angry birds for exemple and you can t overclock you proc ( instaled and last kernel ...)
Others , at least the Froyo versions ... hmmm my opinion Battery drainers ... With Stock Roms ( mine and one i dw ed ) my battery keep my device alive 4-5 days with Froyo roms with a lil luck 2 days.
So , in you opinions guys ... What is the best rom what exist in this moment?
The best rom possible it will be a clean one (my opinion) without tweeter,facebook,youtube,Actions,Meteo,Peep,Sense .... A clean one of Froyo.
It is a personal choice however I use the WildPuzzleROM_2.1 Eclair v1.0.1 because I have not found any bugs with it. It also has HTC sense so I can use friend stream. and with support for apps2sd good for all of my apps. I personally do not like 2.2 Froyo version as of yet as the friend stream application does not function.
However If you tell us what your looking for from your custom wildfire Rom then we might be able to help more
Im a very new xda member and im also searching for a totally stripped clean rom
And i couldnt find nothin
So i thought im gonna create one by myself
im still very new to all this so if u know anybody who could help me with that?
I tried using the kitchen but also that is kind a confusing
If you want a clean rom the best is openfire 2.3 doesn't have nothing installed and is the fastest rom for htc wildfire, but I rather the cyanogenmod rom and it is by far the best rom, but how dnelson94 says it is a personal choice.
Clean Rom
yes I would recommend openfire 2.3 for a clean Rom and good look with making your own
I only got a Wildfire a few days ago, how do I go about installing a rom. Does it void warranty or anything?
Hmmmm

So if you want a custom rom ..you must root him , i use it http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=788776 , only in this way you can ...
in my opnion ...is irevocable, so you will lose you warranty ... But this phone never crush , until you make something wrong, search, read and make IN THIS ORDER .
+1 for OpenFire 2.3. Made my phone much faster and smoother to work with and extended battery life a little bit.
Can't comment on Cyanogen as I haven't tried it yet.
+1 for OpenFire 2.3 too.
I have started with Openfire 2.3, then tried Cyanogen, but after flashinng patched market and getting FCs after each install, got back to backup of OpenFire. This roms is blazzingly fast and lightweight. Thus, Cyanogen has way more customization options. Maybe i'll try to put it again with some nightly build this weekend.
I will try to help you in installing rom..

Does it have contact photo's and names ? and is it stable by all means ?
Well fastest Sense ROM is SUnAaBh .. See it in my signature..
Hi there,
I just rooted my 2.1 Eclair phone to Froyo's 2.2.1. Although I love how its made my phone faster its missing some basic features like the camera not working, (which is useless to me because i am always takin pics on my phone) and not having the ability to import contacts from SIM. Am guessing theres other things that make this Rom uncomplete compaired to the official release. Anyways am not here to complain. My question is, Is there a Eclair 2.1 rom that is customizable just like any other custom Rom out there ? I want the rom to be the same as the official release but just with the ability to download custom software basically...or if anyone can suggest a rom that retains all features like camera and import to sim....
sorry for the long request but once I know then I guess I know what choices I have.....thanks !
All Froyo builds, or most of them that i know of, have a camera working, don't know what is wrong with yours =/
Try Floyo or VillainRom, they surely have camera working.
Now if you want to go back to sense, there's a 2.2 Sense version flying around here (sorry don't know the name), and we even have 2.1's still about. There aren't that many Roms around anymore, so you can easily help yourself around. Just look in this section, and the thread titles should be fairly descriptive, along with the first post in each rom's thread.
Well I did try the latest Froyo, it was the special edition version and the camera didn't work. I then tried the stock version and the camera worked but I still had import to sim problems. There are a lot of Sense and non Sense roms out there, someone made a list and i've had a look at it so will try one of them. Thanks for the reply !
P.S. What in your opinion is the most stable rom out there for 2.1 ?
Floyo, FroydVillain, and elelinux's ROMs all have reputations for being quite stable. There may be others. I'm running Floyo and it's been totally solid and speedy, with rocking battery life. And everything works.
EDIT: Oops, sorry you asked for 2.1. The above ROMs that I listed are all 2.2.1. I've no idea about 2.1, sorry!
VanillaEclair has everything working, search for it on the board..
Hey guys...Im a newbie in all these kinda stuffs... if ur pro, passing by here please drop a comment to help me. u don't really have to answer all questions r.....

SE x8 don't support Flash Player, so i cant play
vids on browser but i know that when rooted, my phone's OS or ROM ( or something similar) can be changed , and many different "things" can be done, my questions are : Is supporting flash player included in the "things"?Which OS or ROM should i change to? Someone suggested me Skyfire Web Browser.. I was stunned... LOL I don't need a browser which can support flash! i needa phone which can support flash player.
Im a newbie and my knowledge is, originally our phones are running on stock roms(which don't allow many things to be done) , once rooted, we can change the stock roms to customized roms...
And we can turn our phone into phones like HTC Desire or G1 or Samsung Galaxy...I NOE IM NOOB PLEASE CORRECT ME!
Everytime i did try to do research on how to make my phone better after rooting, but everytime i view a thread, i will be like
" ****! what u guys talking man ..The words u guys use are killing me...i don't get u guys at all.."
so here are some noob questions please help me :
1)What is/are
modules?
sense? ive seen some people say they can make their X8 run on HTC sense?
firmware?
build number? mine is 2.0.1.a.0.47 , people say there is 2.1.1.bla.bla.bla. Should i and how to update ? (MY X8 is already rooted)
i've found out that, its a should to upgrade my phone to 2.1.1 , as many latest customized ROMs like gingerbread and froyo can be supported on 2.1.1 only.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=941458&page=8 ,
i dont get him. if i wanna upgrade, should upgrade then re-root my phone or what
xRecovery?
Jit?
Floyo? Froyo? Gingerbread? are they just themes or what..? What's the advantages of installing them?
Flashing ROMs?
SI number?
2) How to get
multitouch works on x8
flash player works on x8
WHY some people can have their x8s running on android 2.2 or 2.3? WHen running on 2.2 2.3, what's the advantages
IM REALLY CONFUSED NOW DONT KNOW WHAT SHOULD I DO FIRST NOW! first step should be updating my firmware to 2.1.1.a.0.6 eh?
answer
to answer some of your questions, skyfire does support flash and gingerbread, froyo, floyo and all those are roms (operating systems for the phone). you can get gingerbread themes for the older roms. i am actually just after figuring everything out and i just flashed my phone with the latest gingerbread rom
xRecovery = something like a "boot programme" with this you can buck up, mount sd card on case your phone broke down, update to an othed rom, put themes.. And many more... Is the next step after roof.
Jit= something like a programme... But not a programme, it make your phone faster.
Update: depends on your country... Make an update from cp companion.
Multytouch / Dualtouch : not availiable, developers are trying to crack bootloader and some others port it as a module.
Module: if you are not an expert on linux, u dont need to know what this is , its something like help drivers I think...
Flash on x8: Adobe release flash for android 2.2 but last offisial version was 2.1 ... Only easy way to install it is to flash your phone with a rom 2.2 and up, for x8 (with xRecovery)
(no unoffisial rom is realy stable but there are good enought.)
Android 2.2 and up: x2-x5 faster, the speed defference is realy big, so u can get more from your device.
Is: I think this is a code of your phone , a signature of the country it comes from, used on update.
There are some othes simillar numbers like it, ex. Market number...
This is what I know... maybe I am wrong.
1.You can have flash in 2.2 and above ROM..but atm,i dont think theres is fully working
ROM yet to play with it..most of dev a trying their best to make completed ROM,so please be patient a bit.You can try Racht or Jarpelea ROM which is the best rite now for X8, search for it in X8 Android Developement Section.
2.Yes every phone is shipped with stock ROM and we need to rooted it to be able to customized it, Yes you can also turn your phone like HTC Desire or G1 or Samsung Galaxy but in what thing? if u said ROM,you'll have to wait for dev to port the ROM to our X8. and if u said about theme,theres alot of theme,app that can change ur X8 interface to htc,g1.
3.As an regular user, idont think u have to know what modules is,its related to system driver or kernel that u dont want to messed with.Sense is a theme that available on every HTC phone, what their mean by "X8 run on HTC sense" is there a able to use HTC Sense theme on our X8..have u ever see Sense clock? the square white flip clock that available on every HTC phone, thats one of it.
Firmware is also known as official [email protected] from SE like ROM and App.
2.0.1.a.0.47 << this is an old ROM, the latest one is 2.1.1.A.0.6..Yes u should have to update as every update mean better performance, and bug fix..u can update via PC Companion..updating will clear all your data in internal memory, so it doest matter if you already rooted,PC Companion will install new ROM and you have to rooted it again. Yes you are rite, most of dev customized their rom based on latest [email protected] available..Yes again,update will wipe all your things located in internal memory and be replaced with the new one, so upgrade through PC companion and rerooted again.
xRecovery is an app that able u to [email protected] modified system file,able to backup and restored your whole phone if something goes wrong,able to [email protected] [email protected] ROM and many others,i can say it a must have app if u always want to messed with ROM @ custom file from dev.
JIT mean JUST IN TIME,its a file that able to boost your cpu and at the same time save you battery (for me) what is mean by Just In Time is,when u used this file,cpu will only be used when needed eg.opening app,playing games.
Floyo? Froyo? Gingerbread? <<<its a name of ROM,floyo is modified ROM name taken from Froyo which is official Adroid ROM..2.1 (Eclair),2.2 (Froyo),2.3 (Gingerbread)..we are 2.1 which is eclair.
Flashing Roms same a isntalling new rom,upgrading new rom,changing rom to ne one.used xrecovery to flash new rom.
SI number as i know is country code number that determined your location.let say:
2.1.1.A.0.6 for ORANGE <<<build number ORANGE is carrier
SI 1241-4645 <<<<Location code,we cant have same SI number as him if we are from diff location.
multitouch works on x8 <<<Not yet until dev able to [email protected]@modified SE bootloader,multitouch need a driver that properly start whan device boot
(bootloader is SE app that check every driver on every boot,every driver have some sort of SE sign to determined the officiality of the file)
WHY some people can have their x8s running on android 2.2 or 2.3? WHen running on 2.2 2.3, what's the advantages.
==because dev already port the ROM to suitable with X8, that y they can have it running on our X8. 2.2 and 2.3 is a latest build,as you know latest build mean better performance,latest things added in the ROM,and flash can only be run on that ROM..thats the advantage!!
Yes,i think u should update your phone first.
Here you go,hope that i already answering all ur quest.
Arghhhhh thanks so muchhhhh guys. XD
when updated, my phone's internal memory will be cleared up..including all the SYSTEM APPS? then automatically in the new ROM i will have the same SYSTEM APPS as in a newly bought phone?
and i used link2sd, apps that i linked to sd will be wiped away too?

Litening Rom sucks. It has too many bugs and glitches. Use 1.5 verison of Litening Rom - it most stable. Or use the other much better roms like CyanogenMod (some features not working for now) or CriskeloRom (everything works fine in this rom).
oh i didnt realise lightening rom was that bad ...
you sure CriskeloRom is better? any particular version you recommend? i take it thats the CriskeloRom is the best of the lot then at the moment?
thanks for your help
Each on their own. While one is saying Litening ROM is bad others will say it's their favorite, so it's pretty useless to ask other than using by yourself. See these threads,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1235592&highlight=Best+ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1223402&highlight=Best+ROM
Regards.
Litening ROM is the best of the number of bugs and glitches. I try versions after 1.5 and they were all terribly unstable and unusable.
Try latest CriskeloROM, I dont find any problems in it. And it has normal stock android lockscreen, what is needed for me.
in the faq for the CriskeloRom it states:
when flashing from another ROM you need to
flash back to a HK3 stock rom and ensure you have CF root
where do i find both of these?
please help
thanks
p.s. i found the problem with the sounding like underwater or in a tin room, it happens because the fone is too far from your mouth
Try MIUI, it's the best rom on android IMO in terms of user experience and interface. Most other roms have good function but got undermined by android interface or ugly color scheme.

Well, I'm really a newbie, so, do not kill me for this question.
The fact is there are some Custom ROMs out there and I want to change my actual 2.3.3 stock ROM by a new one, stable, reliable and without missing or broken functionalities.
Yes, I'm very exigent with my X10. The ROM I'm looking for exists?
The most common answer someone may give s " try n see... It's personal. Preference "
Lol bro as u r new here u maybe expectingan answer. ..
Try feralab or
Donut
They both are the best to start with
sEnT fRoM ~AGNI 5~ JAi hO iNdiA
I'd say Wolfbreak his ROM since feravolts rom sometimes has random crashes (wlod)... I don't know why.... Didn't have this on v15...
Even I have frequent probs with fera16. Bt most f the people find it smooth for them...so it depends on the users likes n dislikes
For me donut gave better results...
