Custom Rom - Hyperion 8 for Galaxy Y!

Finally we are posting on our first custom rom tested by us! Hyperion 8!!

Firstly let me define what is custom rom!!
As you all people know ROM stands for Read Only Memory! In the case of Android its your OS with all the stock apps!
Stock ROM is the one that you get with your smartphone. It would have a lot of bloatware consuming your storage!
Whereas Custom ROM is customised by some developer to his own ways and keeps only the apps that are needed to run.

Kernel is one that will the main part of your ROM like a heart! It has various settings to keep your phone healthy, perform well, save battery and overclock as well!

Many Custom Roms have bugs but this one doesnt!! Believe me!! I have tested it for 2 weeks!

Description as given by the developer CarlDeanCatabay:-

JellyBean experience at its best
Everything you love about Hyperion and
JellyBean � the gorgeous UI , fast and fluid
performance, battery life � is everything you�ll
love about the new Hyperion, too. And you can
have the best of both it in one ROM.
A rom worthy of all Galaxy Y
Fast performance, superb stability, mouth
watering UI, useful features � It's something for
everyone. And Everything!
Incredible performance
Known for its fast, fluid performance, Hyperion
doesn�t disappoint. It features 23 powerful and
power-efficient CPU governors and 4 I/O
Scheduler, which makes everything you do feel
smooth and natural.
Hyperion wouldn�t be Hyperion without
incredible battery life . Even with so much
performance packed into such a small space, it
still lasts up to 2 days on a single charge* . So
you can read, watch, play, write, and create
whatever you want, as long as you want.
*battery life based on moderate usage with all
radios turned on at default policy settings.

Hyperion 8 highlights:
Total ear-gasm: ALSA ( AlsaProject) + Beats
Audio Engine v2
We combined and tuned up two sound engines
for superb sound quality when listening to
music. This time, sound enhancements are
activated at startup without the use of DSP
Manager. What does that mean? No more force
close when you connect/disconnect mass storage
mode on PC.
Mouth watering pixel goodness
Like JellyBean looks but sluggish like old granny?
Worry no more! Hyperion 8 combines JellyBean
UI and transparency into a piece of art. We don't
simply take frameworks, systemUI and put it in a
blender. We make sure we put "what belongs
together".
Project butter Hyperion style
We combined all the best tweaks out there for a
superb super smooth UI. Others would say "No!
That's not real! Project butter is JB only", yes
that is correct if you can't read between the
lines.
More juice more fun!
We hate running out of juice as much as you do,
so we made sure you can get the most of your
battery. We put 23 CPU governors and 5 IO
schedulers to tame that nasty CPU! And with
deep sleep? Your phone will get more sleep
than you do! -well at least for me this is a true
statement.

other ways of rebooting)

Unique - not all custom roms have:
1. No SMS Bug
2. No false Android version
3. No useless features
4. Least branding (Like creed parts or cod parts or
whatever. We don't like that. It's your phone,

compositing

memory assets allows freeing of more RAM when

used RAM)

Overclock Galaxy Y to 900mhz easily!!!

Yea!! You can use your Galaxy Y at 900mhz frequency!!

Galaxy Y comes with a processor of 832mhz frequency! It shows a lot of lags for the new games and gets stuck lot of times!! Force close and many!! But through Overclocking you can minimize it but it cannot be nullified!!

For those who don't know what is OVERCLOCKING, Wikipedia says this;

"Overclocking is the process of
making a computer or component
operate faster than the clock
frequency specified by the
manufacturer by modifying system
parameters. One of the most
important techniques is running at a
higher clock rate (more clock cycles
per second; hence the name
"overclocking"), but other
parameters, such as CPU multiplier
and memory timings, can also be
changed and would be considered to
be overclocking. Operating voltages
may also be changed (increased),
which can increase the speed at
which operation remains stable.
Most overclocking techniques
increase power consumption,
generating more heat, which must
be dispersed if the chip is to remain
operational."

By this the games will have less lags and the phone will be a bit fast!!


I am adding a screenshot of my mobile for the proof!!





Now for the steps & instructions!!

We are not responsible for any damage or loss! You are liable for the loss and not us!!

What you need??

1.A Rooted Device

2.Overclock zip file (get it here

3.CPU master or Set CPU (get it from playstore or here

4.CWM if you dont have!!


Steps:-

1. Download the required files and place it in root of sd card! Not in any folder!!

2.Switch off the phone and go to recovery mode by holding volume up+power+home button simultaneosly!!

3. Now go to install zip from sd

4. Locate CWM and open it!!

5. Now go to install zip from sd

6. Choose zip from sd

7. Locate and chose the zip file!! Click install!

8. Reboot your phone!

9. Install CPU master and open it!!

10. Select scaling as PERFORMANCE!!
And extend the bar to 900mhz and apply!!

Thats it!!!! Enjoy!!
Alternate method if the above method is not WORKING!! 1. Download the file and place in root 2. Goto recovery mode > clear data then clear cache 3. Go to install from zip 4. Locate the overclock file and install it!! 5. Download CPU master and select performance. Extend bar to 900mhz!!
Note: You might find your battery draining faster after this!! So lower the frequency when you are not using the device for gaming and multitasking!!
