Requirements :-

- Android 2.3 +

- Custom kernel (with init.d support)

- Root and Busybox installed

- 3MB of free space in "/system".

Feature :-

- Full memory management.

- kernel tweaks and improvements for better performance and battery life.

- Entropy generator engine used to reduce lags.

- Zipalign apps in "/system" and apps in "/data" every 48 hours which result in less RAM usage.

- Sqlite optimizations and faster database access.

- CPU governors tweaks and improvements for better performance and battery life.

- Increased SD Card read-ahead cache to 2048 KB .

- Ad blocking.

- Default.prop tweaks and improvements.

- Cleans log files and tombstones at every boot.

- Many other tweaks for better performance and battery life!

Steps :-

- go to system/etc/init.d/delete all files in it

- Download the zip

- Flash zip via recovery

- Feel the difference (1st boot may take time)

User praise :-

1c3_5n0w :- I'm not usually this vulgar but HOLY SH*T. My device is flying, look up in the sky!!! I come from xElite 2.0 which is a lag free GB ROM and I switched to an ICS ROM which is the Xperia Play Z Final v5 and look at the free RAM, and the battery, oh wowwww. Thanks a lot BOSS, this makes my Play, like a BOSS

fliperpl :- Installed with ROM ULTIMATE HD 5.1 and works pretty well. Phone is faster and UI seems to be smoother. Thanks

$lim $hady :- Awesome....!!!!!!!!! One word Awesome....!!!! Playing Subway Surfers without a Single Lag... Feels like my phone is running on GB.

skaloyskie :- Thanks man! I've noticed that my phone suffered less lag even I'm using Opera mini (Multi-tabbed browsing) and downloading movies via torrent. Nice

iossux :- U rock bro really boosted my performance
