Hello,
Development of CM11 is doing well so far. I may start working on the second project parallelly so you can chooses which rom you would like to have on XJ.
(all roms 4.4.2)
OmniRom - very nice new rom with many features. Made by one leading devs in xda. Good support.
ChameleonOS - rom which has unique theme engine taken from MIUI and modified. Nice UI, themes, customization. Poor support, may be time consuming to port it.
SlimKat - CM11 based rom, slimmed with dark UI, some more features are added. It may be pretty fast on XJ. Not bad support.
I can't promise I will develop a rom you choose. I may not have a time but I want to know how much people will use it if I do.
If only few people are want it I'm not going to port any more rom, I will stop on CM11.
It depends mostly on the ammount of people here.
Source of ChameleonOS is downloaded and I've made one test build.
Vote if you're XJ user.
And please don't post useless things here, don't ask about CM11, bugs and other devices. Only questions about roms in poll.
Update:
Sorry I forgot to add AOSP. I can work on AOSP too.
I think SlimKat will be the best
If u can, work on SlimKat **
Omnirom
Boom
Will there be any noticeable performance differences in slimkat and omnirom?

People, don't type what you chose. It's useless and creates spam. You voted so no need to spam this thread with this information.

:good:Thanx for asking..I want MIUI style rom but speed is matter so any rom with superfast.
ChameleonOS looks pretty neat. I'd love to see it on our J. Maybe for locked bootloader?

No possibility for locked bootloader as you must swap kernels to even think to install zip package.
AOSP would be cool ... or maybe vaniraosp if thats possible ... but at the moment i´m still waiting for a new coax cable -__- ... btw really good work @lozohcum ... it´s a big wonder that we have kk soon ...

REASONS TO CONSIDER CYANOGENMOD ON XPERIA TIPO
NB: I AM WRITING THIS IN ORDER TO HELP THOSE WHO ARE THINKING ABOUT USING A CUSTOM ROM FOR THE FIRST TIME.
Well, it has been a few weeks I have played with 3 most promising ROMs for Tipo - Cyanogenmod, AOKP& Z-Fusion.
All of them were better than the stock ROM provided by Sony. Out of the 3, CM was was the most stable(atleast for my phone).
AOKP offered more control over the ROM but it froze more often in tipo. Z-Fusion was visually good(very good job done with the interface) but it lacked some controls offered by CM.
Now one can ask, why CM? Whats wrong with the beautiful firmware by Sony?
Well, there is nothing wrong with the official firmware but it is a heavy burden on the memory. The UI is eye-catching but it takes a lot of memory for the tiniest details, whereas CM has a simple and neat UI( the Trebuchet Launcher, gotta love it!!!) which is very lightweight and fast and responsive. The control over the behaviour of the ROM is what appeals the most. Starting from the lockscreen to its CPU, everything under your control. Lots of customization option available for the user.
The best thing about Cyanogenmod is that the in built apps are very memory friendly. In tipo, after a fresh and clean installation you get about 600 mb of phone memory. The original firmware of a new phone offers 450-500 mb of phone memory( it depends on region, 450-500 in my region). So those who are fanatic about their phone memory should try out CM as it is the most stable out there for tipo.
Hope this is useful to some extent.
I'm currently using CM10 (FXP212) and it is running very smooth.
I want to make a few comments to this:
- custom ROMs are overall a little bit less stable, especially if they're still in development phase, which all of Tipo's custom ROMs are. Although CM is quite stable since the few last updates.
- Z-Fusion is still based on an older CM10 build. That's where the partial lesser features come from. There have been some updates in the CM10 project since Z-Fusion released.
- AOKP is FAR from done.
Honestly in my opinion you should also cover some the downsides of Custom ROMs when you post something like this, because it isn't really objective like this.
I do agree CM10 FXP project is a wonderful project, but it was also the first so it had more time to advance and evolve into a great ROM. Give the other ROMs a chance.
Also, are you planning to add more ROMs to your review?
Regards, Drago
I really appreciate your opinions
This post was meant for upsides of the ROMs. However, I will make another post to point out the demerits.
Thanks for encouraging me. :thumbup:

thank you and i saw Cyanogenmod work more fluently than stock rom and i'm thinking install Cyanogenmod in my tipo and install a custom rom have compatibility with locked bootloader xD
I'm thinking to install CM10 on my Tipo, but still have my doubts, because I can't find any info about the pro's on the net.
Is it really really faster then the stock ?
At this point, my phone is really laggy at some point (stock). Even, when all the unneeded apps are deleted.
When I type a message, my phone laggs almost everytime.
That's why I was looking at the freexperia project, but yeah, warranty void :/
That's a big downside for me...

If you are looking for laggless rom stay away from fxp, at least for now because stock i much faster than cm for this day (fxp214).
I recommend you to use gimlo rom with pimp my rom tweak (aroma version) it makes tipo much faster.
To tell the diffrence here are quadrant benchmark results i got:
Fxp 214 ~1000pts
Gimlo 0.3 ~1500pts
Gimlo 0.3 + Pimp my rom ~1700pts
Try FXP221. U will find how great fxp rom now

Read the FXP thread, I have heard that the new versions are having some screen bugs and headphone bugs.
As of 221, its very stable. Just one bug i.e. Loudspeaker for calls is not working.

Cwm is returning Everything, as I try it, you can go back from CM 10 to ICS but I'm on CM10 right now and I'm using it as daly drive. Loudspeaker is fixed and I think the headphones but that I didn't check.

What is*AOKP?
AOKP stands for Android Open Kang Project. It is a custom ROM distribution for several high-end Android devices. The name is a play on the word kang and AOSP (Android Open Source Project). The name was sort of a joke, but it just stuck, just like our infatuation with unicorns.
We fork the source code of Android that Google puts out in the open with every major version release, and we then add the magical unicorn bytes (read: we add some of the coolest features that are both useful and make your ROM awesome).
With AOKP, you can generally do a lot more with your device than what you could do with the original firmware that came installed on it.
Why AOKP?
We were waiting for when you’d ask this.
There are a variety of reasons why a hilly billy Android user, on a bright sunny day, would suddenly start using AOKP and loving it.
For one, AOKP is lightweight. Most OEMs provide a heavy UI layer over Android and have loads of bloatware (i.e. apps that not everyone use every day, but you cannot remove because they’re “baked in” by default). Since AOKP is built upon vanilla Android source, it has neither of the above.
Also AOKP has features that you will not find on your stock firmware. You can have a multitude of toggles to quickly flip a lot of your phone’s settings right at your fingertips, or you can launch apps quickly from any screen using our Ribbons.
You can change almost each and every aspect of the OS, from its looks to the way it functions, with total freedom. And did we tell you, AOKP helps you make tacos?
AOKP Release*Versioning
We have two different kinds of builds/releases - Nightlies, and Milestones.
Nightlies: Automatic builds, every 3 days, of the latest code committed (may contain nuts bugs).
Milestones: Most stable builds, usually released once a month.

Well CM10 gives you more customization and supports lots of modifications in framework and more. You have also many custom roms based on CM.

stock rom is better than CM10 ?? :silly:
It depends what are you expecting from rom. I'm need 100% working, everything. I was annoyed by half-working led, front camera and other little bugs it had. Now I'm on stock JB with the newest Vengeance kernel and it's as fast as CM10 with all tweaks, soo... my decision for now is stock JB. It runs as fast as CM10 and has everything working.
I should also admit, that decided to sell my Xperia J.
@up
Front camera works perfect on CM10
As for me everything works better on CM10 than Stock

Don't blame Developers @david makarove
if you think development is so easy help yourself.
Firstly, MIUI Rom V5 based on KItkat has recently release for some xiaomi devices and nexus 5. Its not released for all the devices and as our CM is based on kitkat so we can't port miui rom based on jb to kk rom. So just stop blaming .
Secondly, We do brick our devices so that you can enjoy some great roms and you can't be so blunt.
Please keep your attitude with yourself all the developers are volunteering over here for you. They are not hired by you to listen to you. MIUI rom will be there when it is ready.
