How to copy it? terminal says that cant copy cause file exists. If i want to delete previous drivers from /system/lib/egl terminal says that files are read only mode. I cant set chmods. Everything i doin by su. Halp!

Dont delete the old /egl in any case! if you use phone to replace the files, you ust Overwrite the existing files with new ones. Root explorer will do fine as mentioned.

I have tried to put this driver with File Expert and with EsFile Explorer but useless. Root Explorer done the job.

I got 4.459 Antutu score with Cranium RC4, noob kernel and OC to 1.804 Mhz.

Edit: But, I am still low with Quadrant score, about 1.600.

that's bcoz Quadrant doesnt lay much emphasis on 3d
it does on I/O

Everytime I try to paste the files to the /system/lib/egl/ folder, my phone reboots... any ideas?

Edit: and now when I tried one by one, it restarted again and is now in a boot loop... a CWM zip would be nice...

reboot is normally, please use antutu test ,if 3D score more than 1100+ , you are successfully

I'm unable to since I'm stuck in a boot loop... not fun.

Thats because you had already installed tue drivers. The reboot was normal when you replaced the drivers. When you started to place them one by one, u made a mistake. I hope you have done a nandroid backup or either cwm backup. If not youll have to reflash the firmware.

ok, i installed these I8150 gpu drivers but my 3d score in antutu hasn't improved much ... Maybe it's because I have 2.3.5 stock rom ? But overall score is 1 point better as you can see below :D

Whats wrong with you antutu?? either your phone must be laggy as hell or you have some antutu version from the year 1779. Your 2d scores should be like 280~ and 3d about 1100~. Thats really creepy :D

    These are the GPU drivers from Samsung Galaxy W GT-I8150. By updating to these your graphics scores will rise significantly.

    link to download the drivers: http://www.multiupload.com/4ZQF5F9AU0
    alternative download link. thanks to Rayiskon! http://www.mediafire.com/?z8f6djtrg9h82th

    Installing:
    -extract the .rar file
    -place the file to /system/lib/egl
    -adb for advanced, root explorer works as well
    -reboot and benchmark ;)

    Ok, installed new drivers.
    AnTuTu Benchamark results:
    ===================
    Before:
    2D Graphics: 278
    3D Graphics: 832
    Cpu Freq: 1,4GHz
    Total Score: 3209

    After:
    2D Graphics: 285
    3D Graphics: 1161
    Total Score: 3602

    Well, 3D performance improved in nearly 1.5 times, the test with knights with the old drivers had 30-35 fps, with new - 55-58 fps.
    Thanks a lot!

    well i played NFS Hot Pursuit again today and guess what no battery drain, so im now trying to replicate the battery drain.

    SO this GP{U driver is NOT responsible for my battery drain last night :)



    This is not my work and all the credits go to a huge Chinese GT-I9001 community:

    The new drivers work in cm10.1,just compiled it right now,although simply copying them will not do,changes need to be made in device-vendor-blobs.mk before compiling with the new drivers. cm10.1 still is a bit laggy (aroung 2 -5 %) because of the absence of the 4.2 kernel branch. but gaming performance seems to be a bit better.

    I don't mind uploading it,but xistance has already pulled in my driver changes and committed to his git. but he is facing some problems with the new drivers. i think he will be able to build it today only,but if he does not,i'll talk to him and if we see it's cool,then i'll upload test build.

    Why would it not be okay with me? Anyone at anytime and anywhere can upload anything they want when it comes to open source. I'm perfectly okay with it so don't worry ^_^. I'm going to upload my own build in 2~ hours.

    As much as I thank you but the one that is actually deserving of all this praise and respect is camcory.

    Besides, you're the one that taught me how to build from source xD.

    Thanks a lot though :).

    yep,still remember cam. we helped each other out back when he was active on this forum.

    and hell yeah,i remember the early pms and posts of yours in my threads about you running into build errors. lol :p

    anyway,as soon as my build finishes i'll upload a test build,so that the peeps can try it out. :)

    regards

    edit- sorry guys facing compiling errors,build is a bit delayed

    I have created three different CMW flashable packages, of the gpu drivers
    two are of I8150 (stock and value pack) and one stock i9001
