HI, all,

Got a question, any custom ROM that support Chinese interface. I want did for my sister and she required Chinese interface.

Is the COW ROM support Chinese interface?

Or any place can get Deodexed stock local ROM?

I'm not using it. Can't give any comments.
Currently available rom (what I know) includes Kezra, Cow's (bionic/bionic2/etc etc) and CM9 (This one is ICS).
Cow's version done a lot of tuning for maximized speed and increased amount of RAM. Seems to be quite a good one but it's still Gingerbread. Some problem have problem using it though, not consistent feedback. I can't say much.
Kezra I got no idea at all.
CM9, someone here who used it says it's fast, even faster than cow's rom (smoother perhaps) but mind you, there're a list of hardware not functioning thus it's still a alpha release. The most important is... the camera is not working. That's what stopping me to go for it. This is not just a problem with Galaxy W ICS custom rom. Many other models are also having this problem. It's the lack of driver that makes those hardware can't be used. I know not much too.  laugh.gif

Thanks a lot, then I need to think twice, my sister is normal user, I can't load alpha version for her. Maybe I check more on Cow's........... So many version... hmm...

Don't forget that the Wave 3 feels like a premium phone with its superior build quality and materials. SGA was the phone that the SGW replaced anyways. laugh.gif

But overall, the SGA was a very capable phone and could run a modified Flash Player without difficulty.
In my opinion, it's one of the best Gingerbread based ROMs we can get for the SGW. It's tweaked and scripted for maximum performance and it really shows. AnTuTu benchmarks are off the roof with it and real world performance is extremely snappy when coupled with the included Zeam Launcher.

Arco's CM9 alpha too is another good choice since it's the only ICS ROM we have now. Though it's alpha, you can use it on a daily basis if the camera isn't something you use. Much smoother overall as well.

Cow's got so many version, which the best and latest? smile.gif

As for ICS, I wait until it much stable first, at least all function is in proper working 1st. smile.gif

What kernel do you want? Paste on sdcard, boot into recovery mode and flash it. Volla!

Cow's kernel :

XXLM8's kernel :

Can i use this both kernel without using their ROM? Which is better in term of performance, I find stock still quite lagging, it is extremely lagging after a long period use, unless restart the phone to solved it.
