best custom rom for x compact? - Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers

I wonder what is best custom rom for x compact since tried some roms (omni rom 8.1, lineage rom 14.1 and k.e.m rom 7.0 ) but noone was any good i mean camera flickering, or so... so far im using rooted 8.0 with drm fix but it feels like i need some tweaks or performace cause that old man needs a new coat once in a while... what are your thoughts? maybe i can put sume safe tweaks on performace side of 8.0, it's kinda sluggish now but still better than these roms in my opinion

You can remove a lots of bloatware. After that it's fast. I was on OMNI and moved to rooted stock so I can compare.

what app is the best way to do this? im trying to make xposed and gravity box running atm to see what i can do

You can simply use adb or I use Titanium Backup, it can uninstall system apps.

How to speed up our device?

Hi guys,
I've just brought this fantastic device, and I'm very happy about it. He is really snappy whit Nova launcher However I would like to receive some suggestions from you on how to get the best from our N10.
For example, I was thinking to install a custom rom and a custom kernel, but I rly don't know which and I don't know if they rly can give some advantages.
I was thinking something like purity rom (because of tweaked bionic and dalvik libraries) + KT Kernel (because it has been recently updated). Or maybe KT kernel + stock rom + ART
What do you think? Have you got any suggestion? Tell me
PS: sry for my bad English
Hi,
I've been using CyanogenMod 11 with its own kernel for some long time now, it never ceased to disappoint me! However, it's not recommendable creating threads asking for the "best kernel/ROM", the best thing to be done is downloading and trying yourself until you find something that suits well your needs . CM11 with NOVA Launcher was good enough for me hehe.

Eheh I know that, but I'm not a flash maniac, and rly I have fear to brick my device flashing and re-flashing roms on roms... That's why I'm asking your opinion. I would like to find immediately the best solution, flash it and then don't touch the device more.
However the for your opinion. I will keep it in mind

I think that the first thing you need to ask yourself is what are your priorities with this device? For instance gaming performance, media consumption, is stability paramount... Etc?
You may want to start off with rooted stock and add the XPosed framework plus modules that give you custom ROM features particularly Gravity Box. If you need more then change your kernel (Franco, KTManta ... Etc). No matter which way you go take nandroid backups and save them off your device before making a significant change (kernel, custom ROM, moving away from stock). Your recovery of choice will provide you with the nandroid backup/recovery functions.
Also read, read... Knowing the focus of a specific kernel or ROM will help in making your choices balanced by the issues other users are having.
Good luck.

Thank for the answer.
Yeah I always read all the feature of roms... But they never speak about optimization or performance. They always add features and options on Android but... Nothing I can't get with gravitybox.
What I need is smoothness. Not necessarily game performance, but speed while moving from app to app without microlag.
However, let me ask here other questions without opening another thread:
1)Is it normal that, when trying to access the recovery (my device is locked and not rooted) it display "no commands"? Do I need to unlock the device to get into recovery?
2) Can you suggest me a program make backups of my games saves and apps without root? Because I need to backups my data before unlocking the device...

Well, I can't really speak on custom ROMs and kernels because I'm perfectly happy with running stock rooted with Xposed Framework on my N5, N7 (2013) and N10. But, to answer your questions:
1) Yes, it's normal. When you boot into Recovery, all you initially see is the android laying on his back with a red exclamation mark over him. In order to get the commands to show, you need to hit power + volume down (or maybe up, I always forget) at the same time. It can take a few tries with the buttons, but they'll eventually show up.
2) I believe an app called Helium is what you are looking for. I've never used it since I'm already rooted and use Titanium Backup, but I believe it kind of works the same as Titanium Backup.

No problem. Everything you need to know can be found in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/framework-xposed-rom-modding-modifying-t1574401.
It's pretty straightforward. Just install the Xposed Installer apk, then go into the Xposed Installer app and hit "Install/Update". Reboot, and Xposed Framework should be installed. Then, just go back into the Xposed Installer app and click "Download" and choose whatever Modules you want to run. My personal favorites are Gravity Box, Unicon (purchased through the Play Store), Xuimod, and App Settings. I also have the Xposed GEL Settings (XGELS) Module, but only on my Nexus 10 since I love the Google Now Launcher, but it shrinks the icon grid considerably. So XGELS allows me to get the same number of icons on the GN Launcher as the default launcher.
Edit: Oh, and here is a collection of the Modules so you can see what each of them do: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/index-collection-xposed-modules-post-t2327541

Thanks a lot for the detailed help!
A couple of questions:
1) Is backup necessary before the installation?
2) Does the Enable Translucent Decor module hide the navigation and notification bars?
3) Would the installation of the Xposed framework interfere with the stock ROM updates later on?
Thanks again for your kind help...

No problem.
1) It's not really necessary, but before installing/flashing anything that can modify system files, I always think it's a good idea to make a backup beforehand. You never know. That being said, it's all really simple.
2) If you're talking about the solid black background in the notification and navigation bars, then yes. It doesn't completely get rid of them, it just makes the black bar transparent like it should be when using the Google Now Launcher. I don't use that specific module because I already use Gravity Box, and it already has that option to enable translucent decor. It works flawlessly. I don't know why Google said it causes issues on the Nexus 10. If you want to completely get rid of those two bars, you need to enable something like PIE controls and Expanded Desktop.
3) Yes. But the solution is simple. When you want to update via OTA, all you have to do is go into the Xposed Installer app, and under Framework, just click Uninstall. This replaces the modified Framework with the stock Framework so you can update via OTA without any issues. You don't even have to uncheck or uninstall your Modules or the Xposed Installer app itself. Then, after updating, you'll probably just have to re-root by flashing SuperSU in recovery (unless you have survival mode enabled). After that, simply go back into the Xposed Installer app, and under Framework again, click Install/Update. As long as you left your Modules as is, your setup should be back to how it was before you took the OTA.
Well guys, i think I'm going to install SlimKat 4.0 and KTmanta Kernel... I will tell you if I'm satisfied of my choice
Ok guys, I've done some tests and now I've decided too keep Purity rom + ART... And the results are incredible!
23000 score on Antutu benchmark
9000 with Quadrat
Incredible performances and a GREAT battery life, much better than stock rom with dalvik
I think that the tweaked ART and Kernel of Purity Rom deliver the best experience with our device. I suggest it, you will be surprised of the benefits you can get!
Thank to everyone who helped me in this thread
I have been very happy with my AOKP and Franco Kernel combination.
I've installed Purity ROM + ART and it's fast - but i still think stock 4.3 is faster. I tried KTManta and that didn't change things despite overclocking the CPU and GPU.Wish we could have ART on a 4.3 rom.
Are there any recommended 4.3 rom/kernel combos that give good performance?
Edit: First time i installed Purity I didn't install GApps. It was incredibily smooth and fast. After installing GApps, it became laggy again, similar to my experience of stock 4.4.2.

Do you really find 4.3 faster then kitkat + art? It's really strange. Well I know that the latest jelly bean firmware maybe is built better than 4.4.2 (which has got some bugs here and there, and yeah I prefer JB device options format) but ART is unbeatable, except by a very well tweaked Dalvik library.
However I think I know maybe why Purity 4.4.2 seems laggy to you. Maybe it's Google now launcher + transparent status bar & notification bar.
I've changed the launcher to Nova (but u can use Apex and similar) and immediately disabled translucent bars. It's smooth like butter now. With tra translucent bars, instead, everything was a little laggy and not fluid. In particular the Drawer scrolling was clearly laggy.
So, try to Nandroid backup, flash again Purity + Gapps. Then change Launcher (and unistall the google one if u want) and disable translucent bars. Then activate ART.
That's what I've done and I'm very happy of the performance provided by my Nexus 10
Also now I'm trying KTmanta Kernel. I didn't found increased performances, but I really like the possibility to undervolt both CPU & GPU. Undervolt = less energy request = No overheat = best battery life

I' going to test KTmanta for another week, then I will switch to Franco kernel to see which is better
Sure I agree the general UI and multitasking is snappier with 4.4.2 with ART than 4.3.1...BUT I primarily bought the nexus 10 to consume media (e.g. video, ebooks, music) and for me buttered AOKP 4.3 is much smoother when watching video than any 4.4.2 rom/kernel combo I tried. The trade off is a bit of stutter in the UI but I can live with that. Video was just terrible on 4.4.2, including audio sync lag and plenty of dropped frames.
Can't wait to see how 4.5 behaves with video as I really like ART!

Xposed on xz3

Hey,
Now that alpha 4 is out, I'm curious to know what xposed modules you are using and on what rom.
I'm new to Sony so I'm first getting to know my phone, before trying to customize it. The only module currently installed is true silent mode, on stock rooted 5.0.2.
What about you ?
20MP Superior Auto
Bootmanager
Exchange Bypass For Lollipop
GEM Xperia Xposed

Youtube AdAway
All installed on my Z3, working fine!
Oh and, stock prerooted firmware!

As to why this isn't a stock feature: I really don't know. It doesn't really put any extra strain on the phone performance-wise... At least, not that I noticed.

2) Is bootloop really fixed now?

Firstly install XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk and then flash the zip archive in your recovery (xposed-v67-sdk21-arm.zip).
In the Xposed Installer app - "Framework" section you should see your installed version of XposedBridge.jar.
I am currently running a little older version (v64) but i think that doesn't really matter.

I don't think that's true...
The difference between Google and Lenovo UI is just that few apps from AOSP were replaced by themed ones from Lenovo. That's all.
I've had xposed on Lenovo UI on kitkat 4.4.2 without any problems.
I mean, xposed alone should work regardless of your UI. The problem might be with some xposed modules written specifically for AOSP roms (eg. GravityBox).

Maybe, but do you think that it is so easily? Why we don't have already updated to Android Lollipop 5.1.1 ?
What I know is that Xposed without GravityBox is like holiday without sun...
Can you try GravityBox on your curent setup and write result here, please?
GravityBox official:
- this module is designed to run on vanilla or close-to-vanilla Android 5 (AOSP)
- supports "Google devices" like Nexus, HTC One Google play edition, and others running vanilla Android 5
- supports Motorola Moto G Dual SIM running stock Lollipop
- Samsung Touchwiz, HTC Sense, MIUI, LeWa, Xperia, Lenovo, etc. are NOT supported. It is not guaranteed this module will work on these at all so try at your own risk. This module is simply too complex to support all kind of ROM brands that were vastly modified by vendors.

Everything on Gravity Box works perfectly on Vibe UI.
Installed Titanium backup, froze unwanted apps.
After I was sure, removed all bloatware which were frozen using Titanium backup.
Installed Device control. Modified CPU and GPU settings.
My K920 is now amazing on performance, power backup, functionalities and features in addition to its lovely Hardware (screen, camera and looks).

I am currently using Pure Nexus as my daily driver. Not too many mods over stock except for Pixel features that I prefer. Only thing I miss from Stock ROM is Moto Active Display. Ambient display is not even close. Oh yeah, no custom kernel or root. I'm getting like 6hrs screen on time with this ROM. On Stock ROM I only got 4.5 to 5 hrs.
Installed RR and AospEX today . both have problem in audio recording on video
The only ROM that I've used that has a lockscreen even close to Moto's Stock ROM is crDroid V3.4

I've switched over to the PureNexus ROM, one of the smoothest I have ever used for our device. Had to get a few third party apps in order for it to fully work, but after that I haven't had any problems at all with it. No root currently either, I had problems in the past with Safetynet even with the setting to hide root.

Camera app from Stock image for X Compact

Hello dear fellow users of Xperia X Xompact.
I am currently using OMNI rom mod, with TWRP, bootloader unlocked - and as for ROM itself it's not too bad but Camera app is terrible, nearly impossible to record any videos (screent shuttering, performance problems).
I have installed Google camera app from Google store - any time I open video mod: app crashes saying that application could not connect with camera. In general I am very dissapointed withc picutres quality and both apps does not really give my muhc options to improve that.
So, my idea was to get Sone stick camera installed on this rom. Any of you guys know if and how I could find it ? I took time to look up for it myslef but found nothing really interesting. I don not know if this is even possible. I am willing to go back to stock image, as currently this phone's camera is pretty juch useless.
Any help is welcomed

It isn't, rooted modified stock is always the best option.

Xposed isnt on nougat and you can run android n-ify module to make marshmallow nougat so theres no need to be on nougat.
