[ROM] Cow ROM: Moar RAM (359MB), Moar Speed (1.8Ghz) - Samsung Galaxy W I8150

My fifth ROM (Cow In Black) features:
359MB of available RAM! (Previous 360MB kernel might have problem playing some 720p)
Working SmartAssV2 (credit: erasmux), OnDemandX (credit: imoseyon) and MinMax (credit: erasmux) CPU governors. Testing shows improved battery life.
No more TouchWiz! Using Zeam Launcher! So light and small. Please support the developer, rate it in Market, visit his thread and thanks him.
This ROM will create a 100MB zram. In theory, should give you more memory at the expense of CPU cycles. In my non-scientific testing, performance penalty is not noticeable. But you can disable it if you want.
All Black theme created by friends at FB; Mohd Fazrin Daud and Ilyana Isa.
Others features of the ROM including: internal / external sd swap, deodexed, aligned, Launcher is hard-to-kill, etc.
The following has been removed:

Cow In Black: (Non-OC)
Part 1
Part 2
Cow In Black: (OC - 1.8ghz - what I am using in my phone )
*WARNING*: OC may break you phone! If you're not sure, use the non-oc ROM
Now, if your phone can boot this, this is the real fun:
Linpack score faster than SGS2! Antutu score 4457!
The kernel adjusted to allow OC (up to 1.8ghz) but phone running at 1.4ghz by default, unless you change that using SetCPU, etc.
Recommend to keep max at 1.4ghz. You can benefit from undervolting that will save you some battery. Adjust temporary to 1.8ghz only when you need it.
Part 1
Part 2
Old ROM:
First cROM, based on I8150DXLA2, swap internal / external, memory tweaked: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=5ZUOBOE0
Second cROM (Slim Shady version), based on I8150DXLA2, swap internal / external, memory tweaked but with many many bloatware removed: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=5BP4P7GP Antutu max: 4048. look what changed here). Alternate link for Slim Shady version: http://hotfile.com/dl/141564307/783ca8e/GT-I8150_signed_slim.zip.html
Third cROM - 1.8ghz ROM based on Malaysian I8150DXLA2: http://www.multiupload.com/H8O62ZCBGY (now start at 1.4ghz) (thanks qzem)
- Using Arco68 kernel with "Interactive" governor as well. You can set it using SetCPU. Read more about CPU Governor here.
- If you prefer to set it without SetCPU, change it in /etc/init.qcom.post_boot.sh
- Somehow, in my non-scientific testing, OnDemand is more stable in this OC ROM.
- *WARNING*: Dont try SmartAssV2! According to acro68, its not tuned for this phone.
- Non-OC ROM Malaysian I8150DXLA2 but with Interactive governor: http://www.multiupload.com/44TODYXXQF
Forth cROM - 1.8ghz, 353MB ram. GPU Accelerated Video Playback. Larger SD Card cache. Disable boot up ani (faster boot up!) and many other tweaks from here (thanks KezraPlanes). CRT animation.

Here is how to install the ROM:
1. Root your phone.
2. Enable recovery.
3. Download the ROM you like.
4. Put the zip (1 file only) into Internal SD. If you downloaded the file in parts, you need to extract it (using 7zip) into only 1 zip.
5. Boot into ClockWorkMod / RZRecovery, backup your current ROM using nandroid (just in case).
6. If you are upgrading from my previous ROM, no need to wipe anything, just install. All your settings and app will remained. Theme will changed though.
7. If you are installing from stock or from other custom ROM, best to wipe everything using CWM, including your USB and external sd card. Reinstall everything from fresh, don't restore anything from Titanium Backup or anything.
Disclaimer: I am not responsible if you brick your phone I tried it, it work on my phone and a few others.

Thanks for the reviews, especially m8 cowithgun.
I already download it and will try this Rom soon.
Thanks guys,

I have been experimenting with lowmemorykiller parameters. After numerous testing, the found that the following setting give my SGW max score in Antutu benchmark (4048):
write /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/adj 0,3,5,7,14,15
write /sys/module/lowmemorykiller/parameters/minfree 1536,2048,6656,6912,7168,7168
So, I have recompiled the boot.img with edited init.rc to reflect to those changes. Check out first page if you want to try this Slim version of the ROM. It's slim because I removed even more stuff this time:
AnalogClock,Dlna,DrmProvider,DrmUA,Email,EmailWidget,GameHub,Maps,MiniDiary,Memo,MusicHub,Phonesky,PhotoRetouch,SamsungApp,SamsunWidgetNews,SamsungWidgetStockClock,SamsungWidgetWeatherClock,SocialHub,SisoDrmProvider,SnsAccountFB,SnsAccountLi,SnsAccountTw,SnsDisclaimer,SnsImageCache,SnsProvider,syncmldm.apk,syncmlds.apk,Talk,Task,VoiceSearch,wssyncmlnps.apk
Check first post for link to download this!

Cow, just curious.. Did you by any chance refer to v6 supercharger optimization when tweaking the memory? I will definitely try your slim rom, but probably this weekend..
Sent from my GT-I8150 using Tapatalk

Cow, will you be able to submit your Antutu score without sd card tested? I think that will impact the final score because not everyone using the same sd class.. I'm only at class 4 btw. I tested without sd and the score is 3555..

Just a question, is the Italian language included in your slim pack? Thanks

Ya, I was using v6 supercharger to test the phone and found out that apparently, option 5 gave me best score. Then, I look into the script, apparently what needs to be changed are those 2 lowmemorykiller parameters. So, i extracted boot.img and edit the value in init.rc using those values.
Credit: zeppelinrox for those values... i hope he is not mad that I didn't include his script into the ROM
My SD card is class 10 . Ya, so, may be it's not fair. So, the Antutu score without SD card = 4048 - 150 - 180 = 3718
Again, this is the best case. ^.^

another question,
i saw you apply some memory tweaks base on v6 supercharge

[ROM] Cow ROM v7 (Bionic Cow 2)

Version 7 of Cow ROM: Bionic Cow 2.
- For arco68
It's basically an update to Bionic Cow using latest firmware from Sammy - I8150DXLC1. Features:
1) The OC kernel has been rewrote. It should be more stable and graphic score improved.
2) Bionic Scorpion Optimization library. Using NEON instructions for faster memory operations. Learned from arco68 github for ICS.
3) CowPanel 2 - use this util to configure VSYnc on/off. For speed, use VSync off. For smooth, use VSync on + triple buffering. Read more here. You also may configure zRam option here. zRam is off by default. Read more here.
4) Many CPU governors: Default using OnDemandX for best battery; 80% left in 24 hours. Use "Performance" for benchmarking.
5) More RAM - 358Mb available, compare to 351Mb in stock ROM.
6) Using a super light Zeam Launcher. Thanks cloakt for permission to use.
7) Internal / external sd card swap, CRT screen off effect, Low Memory Killer Tweaked, OnDemandX tweaked, Custom Bootup animation and Larger SD Card cache, Voice Search, etc.
8) Based on arco68 GB kernel. Without which, none of this is possible.
Special thanks to arco68, tch9, andynroid and pinkyunki, Murny Umairah, Myrule Anarki, Santos San Martin and Mohd Fazrin Daud from SGW group.
*WARNING*: Don't use OC ROM unless you know what you are doing. The ROM will automatically reset to 1.4ghz - OnDemandX after reboot as a safety precaution. I only set to 1.8ghz OC for short time during Cheat Engine hacks, zip / unzip, benchmark, etc. I always reset back to max 1.4ghz for normal used. I strongly recommend you to set a temperature profile if CPU ever get above 50C you should lower max clock back to 1.4ghz.
So, here is the link:

Part 2: http://www.mediafire.com/?e368mc427y19611
Here is how to install the ROM:
1. Enable recovery.
2. Use 7zip, right click on xxxx.001, extract. It will create the zip file required for flashing. Copy this zip into your phone. (Don't extract xxx.002)
3. Boot into ClockWorkMod / RZRecovery, backup your current ROM using nandroid (just in case).
4. If you are upgrading from my previous ROM;
- BEFORE installing the ROM, Uninstall CowPanel: Setting, Application, Cowpanel, uninstall
- Wipe Dalvik-cache. All your settings and app will remained. Theme will changed though.
5. If you are installing from stock or from other custom ROM, best to wipe everything using CWM, including your USB and external sd card. Reinstall everything from fresh, don't restore anything from Titanium Backup or anything.
Google Map? Missing apk? Original theme? If you want to restore to stock theme, get all the apk here.
Report Problem: If you encounter FC or any problem, please provide logcat so I may trace it:
1. Connect phone to USB
2. adb logcat > log.txt
3. In your phone, reproduce the crash / FC / etc
4. Kill all adb process in your PC
5. Zip and send me the log.txt
Update Radio Firmware
I8150DXLC1 comes with an updated Radio firmware. This should improve voice call quality. Check if you need to update this, go to Check "Setting", "About phone", "Baseband version". If you already have I8150DXLC1 or newer you dont need this. If not, use Odin to flash this. This will only update the Radio firmware, nothing else will change. You can do this before or after install Bionic Cow 2 ROM.
1. Get Odin.
2. Get ancora.ops.
3. Get radio firmware.
4. Boot into "download mode". Connect phone to PC. Start Odin
5. Select OPS file = ancora.ops. Select One Package = radio firmware, check "One package", "Auto reboot", "Protect OPS".
6. Start and wait till it complete.

Antutu 5067 on 1,8GHz !
I really love the theme, very nice!!
Thanks my friend!!
As now, i'm using your Bionic, Cow. Love the green-ish theme, seems smoothly smart!
A few things btw :
1. When booting up, there is still sound of the boot animation. How to disable it?
2. When locking the phone, the transition is somewhat like distortion-type, not like the scale-old-tv in your previous ROM. Is it supposed to be that way or my phone goes wrong?
3. The "3G icon" in status bar alternately goes from small to big and vice versa. Also is this meant to be as such? :/
Apart of those, it is indeed a GREAT and SUPERB ROM.

I must be dumb.
I download xxx.7z.001 and xxx.7z.002.
Right click on 001: extract here puts META-INF, data and system folders and the other files in the folders I am working in. If I right click and extract to GT-I8150-BIONIC it just puts those files in a folder. No sign of a flashable zip.
What am I doing wrong?
Bomoh, an user who doesn't have permission to post in Dev section yet, told me this solution and it's working. Thanks to him!

In this world nothing is created everything is copied.
If you copy and Better! The plane today is not the same but the Santos Dumont would not exist without his invention.
This is not just a zip, adjustments were made, testing, adjustments, tests, adjustments and improvements in scripts. I am not a great developer but as we all want the forum to collaborate and be respected That is why.
I am actually asking exactly that....I would like to know what those adjustments were......I would like to know what I am flashing before doing that......like memory management is itself a very broad category.....anything specific maybe...

What to do after flashing ?
1.To enable themes create a folder named theme in /data/system using any root explorer( very important for themes to work)
2.use exdialer instead of stock dialer (exdialer already in rom )
3.to use alternate launcher open milocker app and go to settings and go to lock home key option and do as mentioned in it.
4.for more themes add .mtz files to MIUI/theme in sdcard

Another good port for ajay. I have brick my phone so i cannot test this.Maybe by day or two i will go to samsung center to ask for repair. can you port cm9 of galaxy mini to our device.
Pardon my ignorance, but what is MIUI exactly ? Another custom build of Android, just like Cyagenmod is ? What are its fundamental differences compared to Cyanogemond ?

Thank you. For my needs, stability is more important than the UI. According to the description of both of your ROMs, the Cyanogemnod port seems to have less bugs. Can you confirm that ?

deodexed rom will take more space from the internal memory
since our phone have less internal memory its better to use odexed rom and also odexed will be faster
since our system memory is also less it was hard to odex it. that was why i uploaded deodexed rom.
our device is very poor

Yes, you can overclock this rom upto 806 mhz, bt I recomanded you to overclck 729 mhz, more than 729mhz sometime it rendomly reboot...
Also use No frills CPU Control from playstore for overclocking...
Thanks
Sorry for bad english..

I say overclock it for about 15-20% which I think is the safest for such low frequency device, anything above it as stated will cause instability.

[MOD] PIMP MY ROM v2.1.2 - Make Your Phone Awesome

READ 1ST BEFORE ASK
tested by my self using CM9 by arco B3
IM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOUR PHONE BRICKED.
This is not a ROM
this is tweaks/MODS/Hacks etc. for your phone
this is compatible with STOCK or AOSP ROMS
as long as you rooted your phone and init.d support i mean custom kernel
and CWM or any other recovery
Watch this for more info.

INSTRUCTIONS
Make sure you are running a custom recovery (CWM or TWRP)
- Make sure you have busybox installed, if you don't or if you're not sure, download Busybox Installer from the Play Store (free)
- Make a nandroid backup of your current ROM, just in case
- Wipe cache and dalvik cache in recovery
- Flash PmR in recovery
- A wonderful touchscreen interface will pop-up
(devices need different touchscreen calibration, if the touchscreen doesn't work, use the menu button of your device, select "Calibration Tools" and follow the instructions)
- Follow the on-screen instructions, make your choices between all the different features to Pimp your Rom
- Select "Reboot my device" on last screen (or reboot from recovery) and enjoy
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Encountering installation issues ?
Do the following to fix most errors you might get on some devices :
Open the zip of the rom you are running with winrar or 7zip or whatever (the .zip file that you flash in recovery)
Inside this zip, navigate to : META-INF/com/google/android
Extract the file called "update-binary" and rename it to "update-binary-installer" then close your rom's zip
Open Pimp my Rom's zip (i.e : PIMP_MY_ROM-v1.5.3-by-Androguide.fr.zip)
Do not unzip it, inside this zip, navigate to : META-INF/com/google/android and delete "updater-binary-installer"
Now copy the "update-binary-installer" file you extracted & renamed from your rom to Pimp My Rom's zip (still in META-INF/com/google/android). Simply drag and drop it into PmR's zip to add it.
Close the zip and flash it

well i tested it by my self i install init.d script in it but my phone is still normal not lagging...its even more smooth <-- for me i guess
also battery life improves i test this 3 days ago before i posted this thread here so.. yeah no problem until now..
im using only CM9 B3 by arco no tweaks except this PMP i love this tweaks LOL..
sorry for the bad english...
Yeah i see, So yesterday i flash it again, and my Phone simply freezs all the time and i cant do nothing except force reboot and resto é my backup!
So i have nstaled nstools program runing conservative governator and noop sheduller! Can it be a conflit because of this? Sorry can you tell me what init.d tweaks haver you turn one?
And Just one Last (noob) question, we can turn on tweaks on init.d and build.prop at the same time right?

1. 1st i dont know if they gonna conflict conser. gov. and noop :/
2. in init.d just tick you want to improve or change..
3. yep you can turn on tweaks at the same time
tip dont use GPS fix thingy ex. your rom is for europe firmware and your in asia dont turn it on
might end up on a bootloop just like me (or im missing something well didnt know all the answer)
just dont forget to backup all your files...

you may already installed many app that can interact with hardware. like setcpu, swap or other.
yes you can turn on tweak on init.d and build.prop
Ok guys, yes I have installed nstools, and some others things like acid audio mod and wifix and some others system fonts! So what I did? Wipe everything on my phone, and flash again the cm9 build, and then I have flashed PmR again, and with most of the things, and now I am a happy user again heheh, it's working really good!
So I recommend this thing for at least give it a try

I tried that method and it got me to the bootloop...

You can't flash stock firmware without a pc but you can flash a stock based rom like kyrillos v9 with recovery. This is the only thing that i know without pc

That's too bad
By the way
Is stock rom with custom rom had the same performance?
all i wanted is GAMING PERFORMANCE not Beautify

If u want more gaming performance then its wrong question :/
As sb said u cannot flash rom without PC
If u want more performance: CHange FSync to dynamic; Set the Maximal L2 Read to its maximum value; set preallocated memory to highest value. Go into the internet and install some tweaks. There are universal tweaks like superchargerV6 or PurePerformances, or tweaks made for some devices (i didnt found any Ace2-only tweaks but if u will do some research u can find Mali400 tweaks which will power up ur gpu)>
U can also check GLtools link: http://www.xda-developers.com/android/play-resource-intensive-games-on-low-end-devices-with-gltools/
PS. before installing tweaks etc. make backup in recovery, next time when u will have stock rom: install temporary cwm and do backup on it (stock based backups can be helpful)
PS2 [C OLOR=GRE EN] sent from my mind using hand to typing [/CO LO R] (without space-bars) - set this and ur signature will be green (u failed :/)

Well, it should be possible to port a stock rom to CWM format (dump all files + create appropriate updater-script + kernel image) but different recoveries handle /preload more or less well, Touchwiz is more picky about proper partitions, all zips must fit in /data (?)... it's probably not worth the time...
(big lies, nothing isn't worth it, in fact I'd like to see CM7 for this device)

thanks broo!
you know what i wanted >.<
performance all the time! hehe
and if i can ask.. is v6 supercharger with pureperformance wasn't conflict on ram management?
and what is the best setting for v6 supercharger for performance sir?
oh yes im forgot that color .. thank you for remind me sir
oh ya.. @Ryccardo were right, how if we make the updater-script for stock rom like the custom did?
maybe we could do it with updater-script and flash it through cwm heheh
i would like to be tester if u like :v
(sorry im just noob and out of knowledge about our little green thing on our phone >.<)
