I also hear great things about this. Im probably going to start using it because of the reports of awesome battery life.

I'm using this after I got tired of cm7 and miui having not very good battery life...... the best day I had with this phone was 20 hours with pretty heavy usage.. went out at 10pm with 30% and streamed HQ video from YouTube to play music... took pictures and some videos..came home at 3am and had 9%... oced to 1.1 ghz @ 57v and 300 mhz @ 16v....oced to 1.2 ghz at 64v and still got 16+ hours with heavy usage... this rom is awesome

This rom is super fast, But it didn't work great for me. The big deal breaker was Bluetooth, Every time I was on a phone call and tried to adjust the volume the phone would just hang up on my call. I thought maybe it was just the headset I was using so I tryed another one and same issue. I went back to Liberty GB .9

I doubt it will be able to happen since this is a stock based rom instead of a 2nd init rom.

Its painful coming back to a GB Stock rom after being on a 2nd init rom. Having 1% increments was so nice. Hopefully the better battery life will offset my need to actually know if im on 20% versus 29%
Is there just a debloated stock ROM? it can be froyo or GB, i dont care. If it was for my phone i wouldnt care, but this is for my friends phone who works out of town for weeks at a time, and he is not tech savvy at all. So I want it to be stable as possible. I cant seem to find one.
I recommend trying Gingerbread Liberty, Apex, GingerAle, or ZombieStomped.
Roms on the Droid X can't be completely debloated as it causes the phone to bootloop, but these roms are as debloated as possible and are also tweaked for faster performance along with better battery life.

I found this one. I have home on Rubix 2.0 right now, but the camera isnt working and he needs backup assistant. I see with the ROM on the link here i can insert the backupassistant apk back in the ROM before installing it. Could i essentially do that with any other ROM that is made from the same version?
That rom looks great, you should be able to add the backup assistant apk back with no troubles.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
the best debloated rom (imho) is the STOCK ALLTEL ROM.
i havent seen anything as clean as it is.
it is froyo but it also can be rooted and you can do what you want after that.
the main problem you might have is making it work on vzw network.
i just use wifi with skype so its great for me.
I played with basically EVERY rom back in the Froyo days and honestly... just having a rooted 2.3.3 stock Gingerbread rom with all the extra crap apps removed or disabled with root explorer is very nice especially for someone who is not tech savvy.

Since the DX is pretty old now are there any dev's still making new ROMS for this device? Also what are you currently running ROM/Kernel wise?
Developers are very active with the Droid X.
On mine, I am running MIUI v4.

Stock ROM. It has its issues, but I've heard of worse.

I've tried most of the ICS ROMs for the Droid X. I really like them, but my battery life isn't as good as stock with them. Of course the 2 year old battery is about done for anyways. I'm stock .605 rooted right now. It's my fall back, safe ROM.
Running cm9 with the cm9 kernel works like a charm!

Once the source code is released, developers will probably start work on porting it.
My guess is it shouldn't be incredibly difficult for them, since it's just an incremental update.

i'm using wizard's miui DefX 2012.5.12 and it's really all i need on the droid x. insane battery life. smooth. call/sms and data blocking built-in. bootmenu. stable as none other. flashed beats audio and PDroid zip for extra privacy. i remember getting 3 and half days off this rom on one charge, stock battery, and with medium use. crazy.
So can these be loaded from rooted .621? Or am I stuck now that I took the OTA (even though I kept root)?

If I use anything but "none" on homescreen transitions...
regardless of moving wallpaper or not
regardless of wallpaper
It's extremely jittery on the screen transitions. Well, I say "anything" - I haven't tested every transition animation. I've always used Card Stack, and it's pretty bad. Just wondering if I've got something else going on. Other areas seem smooth, but this is the first phone I've had this "problem" with.
I'm using Nova and having the same issues with transitions. Haven't tried Apex. I would suspect that we'll see updates to fix these issues shortly.

Thanks, I thought the same but wanted to see if others were seeing it.
Edit: and what's weird is other things remain perfectly smooth, seems to only affect home screen transitions.

Remember you're on a fully bloatified BLUR ROM. Until we get an optimized/bloatless ROM, system level apps like the launcher are going to suffer a little bit of performance hit. But I have noticed a little bit of a jitter. Cycling home pages seems to help, but it is still there. And honestly, it seems pretty hard to notice unless you're looking for it...
Or maybe you're just used to Project Butter
if you have root, you can remove the bloatware apps and you can also install v6 supercharger, maybe this will fix it
Sent from my Xperia Neo V using xda app-developers app

No problems on the M with the same bloated blur, and V6 shouldn't be necessary on a device like this, in any scenario I wouldn't think?

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. ICS has better memory management compared to GB, and since we have 1024 of RAM, supercharging probably won't have much of an effect. On my X2 with 512 yeah, it helped in GB, but it didn't play well with ICS.
It just seems to be a non issue on that front.
Sent from my DROID RAZR HD using Tapatalk 2
Yeah V6 shouldn't be necessary
It definitely seems isolated to the "card stack" animation, and one of the others that I can't remember off the top of my head (phone is out of reach at the moment). But it seems that those animations are consistently "jittery" on Nova, Apex, and Holo - though maybe they're all using the same code / memory management?
if your phone is rooted and/or you're open to rooting it than...
I installed setcpu and changed the governor from ondemand to interactive.
it made a big difference when waking up from a black screen.
Sent from my DROID RAZR HD using Tapatalk 2
Interesting - that is one area that the phone definitely feels slow, after waking from a prolonged (i.e. more than a few minutes!) sleep. Will give that a shot - thanks.
Interesting, I tried using ROM Toolbox's cpu tuners, but they would not stay set. Ie phone wouldn't recover from screen off setting, nor would governor changes stick. Have you checked to see if similar issues exist with setcpu?
Sent from my DROID RAZR HD using xda premium
i think you can't change governors with stock kernel, you need a custom kernel for that also for overclocking
Not exactly true. As long as bootloaders are locked we won't have any custom kernels. While over clocking is definitely not necessary on this device, under clocking would be nice. Logcat actually shows "CpuGovernorService" making changes after settings have been changed with ROM Toolbox.

What is the best tweak MOD for the RAZR M?
Battery Life: TESTING...
Smoothness/speed: Pure Performance X Gold Edition
Features: Pimp My ROM
Pure Performance X Gold Edition
Pimp My ROM
CrossBreader
Fly-On
ODEX (Compatible with any of the above)
I have to go with x-breeder, its been my go to mod for a while now. If i remember correctly pimp my rom can help "pimp" a stock rom which is pretty cool.
Its worth noting that I have not used fly-on and am still on a 4.2.2 Rom.
SD swap. As implemented in the Avsitralia deodexed mod rom. Basically renders internal for system use. You can still use internal if you want.
YEah, I tried out Pimp My ROM... that was a fail.
Both the Aroma & App versions failed to create a rescue.zip, along with all of their other features.
Switching to crossbreeder...

It works in a totally different way than XBreeder, and I'm pretty sure you can use them together. Also, the issues with many of the those types of mods is that they eat battery. They claim to save on battery, but I've tested a lot of them and almost every one of them eats up battery.
I think I'm starting to notice that... But it defiantly does what it says, best performance I've ever had on this.

I used to use Supremacy, but it's pretty old and is not updated. However, it is a real light init.d script that doesn't touch build.prop at all. I would use this on stock CM and helped and didn't drain the battery much at all. On any ROM that's not stock CM, I only run XBreeder. A lot of ROMs have tweaks build in that we can't see, so I just leave it up to developer to give us a good product.
Haven't really seen any noticeable battery drain on xbreeder but not doing any scientifically sound tests... Just general use
Sent from my XT907 using Tapatalk 4
OK so I pulled my old Dinc out and fired up 4.2.2 on it with the performance and xbreeder mods... Wow! It competes with my RAZR m when it doesn't have the mod, and it doesn't kill the battery either!
I figured out the battery consumption problem also
It is not in any of the mods, it is your wakelocks.
I've found "Google Services" as a whole is the big bad wolf to look out for. I suggest turn off all location related services (NlpWakeLock). Also make sure NFC is turned off if you really don't ever use it.
I suggest flashing both xbreeder AND Pure Performance for best results.
