[Q] Best ROM for Miro (rooted and bootloader unlocked) - is it even possible?

Not so long ago I was total noob for Android, few posts later and nothing has changed :victory: JK off course, the truth is that I learned some basic stuff (rooting, unlocking bootloader, difference between SU and regular user, customization and CWM etc.) and all that thanks to you guys - god bless YouTube, inetrnet and XDA developers! :highfive:
Now the probing questions:
1. Is it possible to flash custom ROM's to Miro with bootloader locked (currently stock)?
2. Which one would suit me best (gaming and/or performance is a MUST!)?
3. What to install mod other then CWM (cuzz it's not supported by phone)?
Thx guys, I'll make sure to thank each and every one of y'all!

1. Yes u can always use stock based roms without unlocking.
2. My personal opinion is that The ultrabeast rom has great gaming performance. Im using it currently.
3. Didn't get your question.

In order to flash the ROM onto device I need some Mod and ClokWork Mod is not supported by Miro (for fastboot etc.) so which one should I choose?
Is there any way u could send me a download link and instructions for that ROM?
So many question marks....

Who told you that cwm does not work for miro? It works very well.
There is a separate thread for that.did you try to search? Just go to the android development section. There you will find both cwm and twrp. Install whatever you want. I prefer cwm.
And you will also find the rom alongwith instructions there only.

Do not post questions which indicates "Which is the BEST ROM" or such issues. It's strictly against the XDA Rules.
The point of the forum is try out different ROMs available in the development section. So browse around and try and see it yourself.

It doesn't seem very stable. Not something I want to risk n my daily driver or am I paranoid?

No, this rom is in development that's wahy it seems not really stable.
The best you can do it's to go to both of Z1 Android Development and Z1 Original Android Development, read and choose one of these roms.
I cannot tell you if this rom is best than the other, because you must read, and read before to select and try a rom
Don't forget you need to read with attention my second link which is really important for rooting your device etc... and don't ne afraid, it's easy :good:

Also, what's the difference between the rooting and cyanogenmod. I have seen rooting before but never really seemed good, I've seen cyanogenmod before but now I'm confused between the two

You need to be root if you want to flash a custom rom like cyanogen rom.
If you, want to know more about cyanogen go here => http://www.cyanogenmod.org

thanks in advance..

Hi!
I believe this is the ROM you're using?
>*Sony Xperia SP*>*Xperia SP Android Development*>*[ROM][KK 4.4.2][C530X] XperianZe ROM KK v2 - BE MOVED - 18.5.14
You need a post count of 10 on XDA to post in development threads....so I suggest you browse around your device section and contribute some "useful" and meaningful posts to get your count to 10. Check out the General, Questions and Answers, Themes and Apps and Accessories sections and find things that interest you and join the discussions.
When you have 10 posts, you can ask questions in the ROM thread.
Here's your device section....
Sony Xperia SP
Good luck! ?
Oh, if you are using a translator, it is not working too well. May want to look at its settings, or train it better, or find a better one.......your post was very difficult to understand.

[Completed] [Q] where can i find mod/tweaks ?

hi guys i'm pretty new to android, i've switched from ios lately.
And my question is that on ios when we jailbreak our iPhones we have something called Cydia where we can install all the crazy stuff (system tweaks,apps that can't be published on the appstore,themes, and a lot of other things).
So i was wondering where can i find something similar to that on android. Is there an app or a list or a thread on xda where can i read the tweak description and install it?
thanks in advance

First of all, welcome to the Android world. In order to better assist you a bit more information is needed. What Device ? What Android version ? What Recovery ? What carrier ? Rooted / Non-Rooted ?

my phone is sony xperia z2 running kitkat 4.4.2 and it's unlocked.
it is not rooted and i haven't installed a custom recovery yet but if i need to do so i don't have a problem.
thanks for the welcome.

The links below should get you going in the right direction. The first link is more of a General get to know Android terms, and such. The second is on how to Flash a Rom, and Root. Again general info. The last two are the Specific Forum for your device, and the Section to look for Roms. I would highly advice spending some time reading, and acquainting yourself with the processes, and terminology before proceeding. Best of luck .

[Q] Rooting Xperia S LT26i

Hello Folks,
I'm kinda new to the whole device developing stuff. Though I hail from a Electronics bachelors I wish to experiment with my mobile. It would be great if any one can guide me through the basics of rooting a device and in my case help me root my device: Sony Xperia S. My phone is totally sluggish in it's performance and I do not have an idea of shelling out cash for another mobile, So, came up with the idea of rooting it.
A step-by-step guide would be helpful for rookies like me.
Thanks in advance for any tips, tutorials or guidance offered.

Hi,
The rooting method depends on which firmware version you are currently on. You can find out how to root on the Xperia S section in the XDA Forums (http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-s/s-development). One of the methods is here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2327473.
Once you are rooted it does not change the performance though. You will have to take steps using apps made for rooted phones like removing bloatware, tweaking your CPU, or if you're up to it then installing a faster custom rom.
I suggest to read up on and try installing a custom rom. I have an Xperia SL and I'm using this rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2393889) which is actually made for the Xperia S and I think it is really good, gives my phone better performance, has good features and is nice looking.
