NEW X10x EWJet V001ex - CLEAN VERSION - Fastest, Smoothest and Reliable than ever! - Many new system improvements - UP 4 DAYS BATTERY - NEW RELEASE (29MAY11) :)

PLEASE, I KINDLY ASK TO EVERYONE THAT INTENDS TO USE THIS ROM, READ FIRSTLY THE ENTIRE POST.

UP 4 DAYS BATTERY!
I managed to make the phone last 4 days without charge today. Amazing.

Ofcourse I don't use 3G and only 2G networks are used, but still..I do about 2 hours music and 1.5 hours wifi, and a few text messages, and usually I get 2 days, but not this time :D

Introducing the modules concept for a faster, smooth and clean rom:
Note: Modules are to be installed via xRecovery. Full Package is for all stock applications. Flash if you feel like there's something missing from the rom, but performance will suffer.

X10x EW Jet V001ex with New Zeam, New Regina 3D, Arc, LauncherPro or GO LauncherEX (NEW FLAVOR) Launchers

This is a custom rom, modified and optimized for both the X10a and X10i based on the stock 2.1 Generic 2.1.B.0.1 for X10i. With more than 38,000 downloads and growing fast, It's planned to be even faster yet (New tweaks available), so it doesn't have much of the crapware that comes with the stock rom from SE.
It is natively rooted, and comes with:
  • xRecovery (last version of FreeXperiaRecovery)
  • BusyBox(optimized)
  • SuperUser (latest version)
  • NEW MAXTHON WEB BROWSER - New version 2.1 - Our Partner

*Important tip: The higher your SD card's class number, the better the performance. For example, a class 8 is much better than a class 2 due to higher transfer rates in class 6 compared to a class 2. Your device's performance will vary depending on the SDCard that you have. So choose a higher class number instead a low and be happy.

Once you have made your partition, open the link2sd app, give it superuser permission and then start moving your apps, please be aware that apps which have widgets are to be left on the phone memory or they not work.
Lastly, any questions about setting your partition are best aimed at the thread there not here out of respect for Erick, the tool provided in the thread makes the process easy, so do not be afraid to try and the benefits are for a faster cleaner phone.

How to backup and restore your data easily:
To backup and restore use Titanium Backup included in the rom.

I would like to invite you to try this blazing fast yet stable ROM today! I would greatly appreciate any feedback you may have. Please remember that you are doing so at your own risk and I am not responsible for bricking your phone or any other damage that may ensue.

Requirements:
1. Rooted 2.1 ROM (latest firmware and baseband 2.1.67 - tested and recommended) If you don't have it, please go to Bin4ry's [GUIDE] and use this tool from Bin4ry and Androxyde to flash both. First flash the firmware .2.1.B.0.1 and afterwards, the new baseband.
Smart tip from a user:
It should not work when restoring between different roms or Android versions due to changes in framework. If your try make sure to wipe cache, dalvik cache and fix permissions after restoring.

2. working xRecovery

Installation:
.1. Optional: Back up your mobile data APNs using APN Backup, as they will be erased when flashing this ROM. An xRecovery backup may also be created.
1. Factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, and wipe battery stats.
2. Flash the X10.2.1.B.0.1.EWJET.XXx.XX.zip package via xRecovery
3. Reboot and for tweaking purposes, remember to enable "Unknown sources" and Development/"USB debugging" under Settings -> Applications
4. Configure Link2SD, and install this tweak through xRecovery: ew.tweakz.zip
5. ENJOY!
Note: At first, you may experience some lag, as some libraries are still loading/caching. This lag will go away soon, and your X10 will fly!

ATTENTION:
I will answer only for bugs and errors for another or further information drop me a PM.
If you like it a click at "Thanks" is enough.

Enjoy!
