for a few days on searching for rom updates for ULTImate 8150 and found nothing, i had installed and tweaked the registry settings of my device and made some adjustments to improve its overall performance... here are some of what i did:

1. installed qmenu for the pupose of enabling the ok as close button so as to always close opened applications- this will enable the device to use more memory for applications that need more memory allocation. Dont forget to check the "enable at startup" setting.

2. installed advance configuration v.3 to tweak registry keys to maximize performance and battery saving of the device. in this version, you will find other options that also be useful such as softkey (left and right) launcher editing.

3. installed CF Version 3.5 to also increase slight speed with opening and processing handling of the device. i have not uninstalled the CF version 2 since you cant literally remove it from the ROM. then, changed a key in the registry from v.2 to v.3.5(search for "askd" post in how to speed up OEM roms). I also noted some good effects in doing this--- applications which requires CF v.2 or V3.5 can be used with my device, since i only tweaked the registry and not physically removed the version 2, applications which need either v.2 or v.3.5 can be used.

4. tweaked some display setting keys to ddi.dll to nvdddi.dll (im not really sure if this changed graphics performance) but i used TCPMP player and just did a few settings changes and videos played really smooth, dvd quality plays really good--i used converter to compress videos(avi-divx format). i am still testing few graphics driver i found including samsung's intel based driver and other graphics driver(ati and nvidia), i just post my feedback soon about this issue.

5. tweak the contrast key in the registry and unlocked a menu in the system settings with regards to contrast.

6. adjusted backlight settings to third bar from the left and set backlight to shut in 10 sec, 1 min respectively.

7. deleted some start-up applications which consumes additional running memory of the device.

8. installed other apps n tweaks but i cant remember all coz i think ive done almost a hundred softresets and hard resets for testing drivers and apps so ill just update this post. maybe you guys could add to this...

for now, im looking for apps for the camera, arcsoft or other, for better and additional options for camera.
also found a useful driver for enabling miniUSB to be a comm port. you can connect other devices to this port. still testing...

--hope this could help in a way for ULtImate 8150 users... im still testing some apps and tweaks with my device. ill just update this post if i find other good stuffs to post.
