Added on February 6, 2012, 12:02 amI've some problems using that rom myself.

I've wipe cache, wipe data, format system.

But when I try to install, a "Installation Aborted" message will show. Any ideas why ?

Nice! Good luck testing it!

Added on February 6, 2012, 12:20 amNormal usage, I have not experience any lag. But I was testing the other day when I fill up the phone with 4 or 5 app, occupied more than 300mb, the low memory killer starts killing App in background, i got lag like 15 seconds. but after that it's normal.

if this is the behaviour, it is as expected because i really want to tweak the low memory killer in such a way that it is suitable for running 1 app at the time. the running app will have more RAM by making low memory killer more aggressive.

you can change that though! you can install V6 Supercharger and use a different options. for example, if u multitask a lot, u can use the script to configure that.

again, i have been using my ROM since I first made them, normal use, i dont experience lag

but, again, i use class 10 32gig sd card (brand DNA - not much choice) duno if it help... but so far, no one can beat my antutu score yet hehe - 4381

Added on February 6, 2012, 12:22 amWhich App? If can, I will try install it and test it out. You can help me to diagnose it a lot if you do this:

adb logcat > log.txt

in your phone, start the install the App. let it abort.

control-c the adb logcat. give me the log.txt

I was using CWM to run it. That was the OC ver of the rom, now trying the non-OC ver to see if it has the same results.

Added on February 6, 2012, 1:03 amNormal version seems to work fine, applied same method over the joined rom parts uploaded on mediafire, but still with no avail.

Mr.Cow, please do let me know how I can help you =)

And not to forget, thank you so much for this.

Lower than me on Stock un-rooted, class 4 MicroSD. I got 3732. 3D Graphics 1154...

i'm using chainfire3d driver..changed it to nvidia..maybe that's the cause of it..

funny though, my native internal sd read speed got around 17mb/s and no lag on the stock rom..i guess a few mb really makes that much difference..

Score does look a bit low. Even with my Slim Shady (2nd ROM), I already got 4k Antutu score

Anyway, here is the conclusion of my SmartAssV2 battery benchmark after 24 hours of minimal usage. This is my only phone, so, there is minimal video, wifi, calls, etc.

From 100%-78%. So, 24 hours = 22%.

I have OnDemandX ROM ready. Will run it for the next 24 hours and report accordingly.

Impressive. Give some battery life test based on games. Simple one, where's my water in example. Mind test that out? Btw, what's your Max Freq for CPU for the test done? Will consider to root and flash if it impress me much

im also used ur slim shady ROM.

cow, can u point me which apk Photo Editor?? the default stock app

u hav remove it in ur rom

The ROM and kernel was not built to impress you or anyone, I built the ROM for my own used, if anyone like it, that's great.

ps: anyway, about the battery test, it was done in such a way because i want to test the suspend features of SmartAssV2, its a feature that the default OnDemand does not have. so, whenever the screen is off, a preferred low freq will be used by default. thus, should improved battery life.

i suspect in gaming, SmartAssV2 may eat more battery, this is because it ramp up speed more quicker than OnDemand. however, if the game is too demanding, CPU governor will not have effect anymore since the phone most likely running at max freq anyway.

in this case, undervolting of the kernel will help a bit.

the battery test was done on OC kernel, but with max freq set to 1.4ghz. i use my phone in such a way that, i only switch to 1.8ghz when needed.

battery test is boring and take a lot of time. i m currently testing OnDemandX, a variation of OnDemand but with support for early suspend. a feature that similar to SmartAssV2 that keep the freq low after screen off. i m pretty confident that this will beat both SmartAssV2 and the default OnDemand governor, in term of battery life. ^^

This is my antutu score after i flased the OC ver rom and using class 4 sd card.

Anyone knows which digi branch got stock?

Nice score! With the new OC ROM, not only that you can have 1.8ghz speed, you also should find that you have more available memory (which is 353mb) and lower memory usage usually between 110mb-140mb.

Anyone bought from digi? Urgent needed. Which branch have stock?

does anyone knoe which shop in lowyat i can get the cheapest sd card? brand and class does not matter

Wow, I must say my experience with Cow's ROM for a day is terrible. I've been getting non stop pop up for FC's.
