Speeding up cooked roms for i910

[Guest rtimi28]

To all you chefs, do you think it is possible to remove the WM6.5 UI and keep that of samsung in to see if the speed increases. everyone tends to remove the samsung touchwiz but what I think is that due to having a heavy UI in windows and then adding touchwiz is what slows the phone down. I wish I had this phone and tried cooking right away but I really don't have the time. to do so. Please if anyone can try this and let us know how it goes.

The theory sounds nice, however, I think it would be analogous to trying to remove the UI from Windows Vista, or Windows 7, etc.

You can't really remove the base operating system's UI. You just have to work around it. You're more than likely correct in assuming that other UI's slows the phone down. It's just that, the UI's make it easier/nicer for us to work with the hardware.

The best I believe we can hope for is to strip out as much of the fluff that the base operating system uses, so that we gain enough headroom to allow us to use the different UI choices out there which in turn, makes our phone nicer/smoother to use.

To date, I believe our chefs are doing the best they possibly can to optimize their ROMs to be as clean and smooth running as possible.

Lioryte for example, makes some really nice, smooth, and resource-lite ROMs that allow us to do whatever we'd like to our phones. It's why I personally like Lioryte's so much.

Storm's ROMs are usually configured to give you some of the best optimizations that he can cook in with whatever UI he's using (Such as his most recent M2D ROM)

Having casually followed the cookers since the days of WoZZeR, Bgill, and the like, I'm pretty certain the cooks now are doing the best they possibly can to optimize our phones.

From what I can see, one of the issues slowing us down is the compression we use. I cook my own personal ROM with XPR. I as well as most other chefs use LZR in our releases to save on size and increase available memory. But anytime you compress a file you will see a decrease in performance.

Are you referring to removing Titanium? That is easy enough; I do it in my own personal build since I use Mobile Shell or sometimes M2Dv2

Moving Titanium is no big deal like was mentioned before, it was/is done by some chefs but it ain't gonna significantly make ur phone faster

I understand what all of you have said. I still believe that even though part of the issue is the fact the the hardware has less ram or rom, There should be a way to dig deeper. I will try some day to build when I have to time. I thank you for your advice.
