Just for future reference, there is a search function on these forums. For example, I typed 'custom kernel stock rom' into it and a whole bunch of useful information appeared.
Having said that...
Is your phone s-off/rooted? You could flash a custom kernel provided that the build numbers are compatible. For example, Bricked kernel is stated to work with the majority of roms since it creates a boot.img from the one on the phone. Ultimately I would recommend extreme care and I would personally be flashing a stock-look custom rom if you still wanted the stock experience with the custom kernel.

[Q] Xperia Miro / Tipo Stock Android

Hello:
first, thank you developers and modders for you amazing work.
I've been searching around the forums for a Stock Android ROM (ICS based, for Xperia Miro), without luck.
Is there a true Stock Android ICS for our Xperias? and when i say stock i mean something like the Nexus experience (stock dialer, notification bar, etc without Sony's mods except maybe the device drivers)
Best Regards

Try Nexus Xperia by Shivang Dave in Dev forums. It's JB based, and gives nearly pure AOSP experience. I know you asked for ICS, but there isn't such rom for Miro. It's just not worth for mods and devs to stick to ICS...
CyanogenMod has really close to stock experience, but it has its cons... I'd go for Shivang's rom.

I'm 99% sure that Shivang Dave posted a pure untouched stock ROM.

Thank you for your honest and well explained answer.
Unfortunately, my Miro's bootloader is locked, and that's why i was asking for a ICS stock based ROM, since i canĀ“t upgrade it to JB ( AFAIK, please correct me if i'm wrong)

[Q] Stock ROM vs Custom Rom on Miro

Hi everyone!.. i had been browsing around 2 weeks ago on this page reading this and that one, i had learnt so much, thanks to all of you for sharing...
so the question is, i have a xperia miro and i would like to use a custom rom but i'm not sure how stable can be... i don't want unlock my bootloader for later ask how to block it again..
i had use some based stock roms and for me is the same, sometimes worth than stock one, nothing to highlight... so it's a good idea unlock my bootloader and install a cyanogenmod based rom?
thanks for reading and sorry for my english and my bad capitalization... greetings
about unlocking bootloader, now theres a tool available here called "Backup TA"..you can backup with it and then safely unlock without losing warranty.
and then you may try the cm based roms and see if you like them or not.

[Completed] Is it safe to install a custom Rom?!

Hey devs! I'm bored of the old school jelly bean on my xperia c thanks to Sony who doesn't support mid range devices! Anyways I'm a tech addict and I wanted to ask you experienced devs whether is it safe to install custom roms on any phone? Does it have an effect on the battery life? . Whether before installing a custom Rom all our Apps can be backed up? please help I'm trying to install the lollipop rom provided by iSidd
Thank you
Hi,
Thanks for using XDA Assist You can flash Recovery without any issues it is safe and reason why its good is it gives you additional function over stock recovery
Yes you need backup everything before proceeding to any type of flashing
Good Luck!

[Completed] Custom ROMs For HTC One V (Differences, Bugs, Info)

Hello,
I am new to this site, and new to this thing, but I am interested to update my HTC one V with some custom ROM (jellybean or higher) and I wanna know some info about which one is the most stable and popular one, with no bugs or trivial bugs.. It is frustrating because they are plenty of ROMs and kernels here.. and what is the difference between AOSP and AOKP version? somewhere I read that aokp is less stable but better... I actually want features included RAM and CPU clocking, because this is the coolest thing in these custom ROMs.. :cyclops:
- I have HTC one V (GSM) rooted and bootloader unlocked
- I have CWM recovery 6.0.3.3 installed
- I have official android v4.0.3
so which ROM you guys prefer to me and which kernel that goes along? and is my CWM version ok or I need other one?.. I really want to get more of this phone than I am getting now.. it's a really nice phone but it's a bit lazy when operating tasks, so it's not for impatient users
I am new to this, but I somehow succeeded to root my V, thanks for detailed instructions on this site, so thanks to you guys ..now I just have to update my ROM, and I will be more than happy
