[Q] Cognition Rom - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
since we dont have anymore cognition rom development for S2, what other good custom ROM would u advise me to replace cognition?
Thanks,
Raven

There are many good custom roms out there. Best if you do a nandroid backup and test to see which you like best.
At the moment I am on CheckROM Revo and haven't had any problems with it, good performance and battery life. Should be a nice upgrade from cognition.

will there never be a new cognition update? and is the one that exist totally outdated or still useful?

Best Rom For Optimus One?

Whats the best rom for my LG Optimus One (P500h) ?
2.2.2 stock room with root. Since the beginning I always was using custom roms, but this is my personal opinion in the past few months I prefer the stock room with root, which I can make any tweak I want, and doesn't have battery drain and bugs that some custom rooms have.
And cause many of the custom rooms are based in 2.2, and 2.2.1+ had some updates that repaired VPN that I use a lot. I couldn't be more happy with it, cause it gives me a lot of experience messing with android too.
There is no best ROM. You choose what suites you. Now, if I were to tell you that the best ROM for me is Light, would you choose it too? It doesn't come with Darktremor, so no one else except non-Darktremor users use it.
Point is, look at what the ROMs bring. Choose according to what you need or what you don't need.
However, if you want something widely used by the people here, use void/devoid or LOL or Megatron or Prime or the other ROMs with popular threads on the Dev subforum
I use the stock Rom rooted with a overclocking kernal
Very fast.
Andy's 2.3.2 Gingerbread
LOL v1.2 with fixed Kernel

I downloaded the official rom from lg website to my country and decompress it, and with this kitchen added root, and left the rest untouched.
pedroh: how can we tell version is the original ROM on LG website? Can you also share the instruction on how to install the kitchen? I am using v10c (2.2) firmware.
I do not have the links anymore, but I know how to do it, but google it is similar procedure as making your own rom.
if u stay on 2.2 use Void echo, if 2.2.2 is ur choice the u can flash Nessy.. its a good ROM . however i am using 2.3.3 andy gingerbread... though its in developing stage but i am quite happy with some bugs in it...
I'm using Optimus X rom, it has the best performance for the limited CPU frequency on the LG p500, but with a good kernel you can eeek out a extra 170MHz - 206 MHz out of the processor.
I'm running the rooted stock Froyo 2.2 and Mik's mutlitouch kernal overclocked.
I'm using my Nessy ROM!

I think user cyber_avijit's GB rom is what you are looking for.

My issue with these custom roms
Before ranting about my relatively bad experiences with custom roms, I'd like to thank the community for its hard work to make our experience a little more enjoyable.
So I bought the Optimus One and messed with it until I recently discovered custom roms for it. I payed $150 for the smartphone so I decided to get a little more out of it thinking that I got a great deal.
I've tried several custom roms but they're either extremely buggy, drain the battery too quickly or are just not stable enough to use at times you need it the most. Now who am I to say this? Just a user. I should stay out of this and stick with stock roms if I'm not happy. Right. But I'd like to know why so many people trip over these incomplete custom roms when they take the good thing of what a smart phone should be... A smart phone! I get almost no battery life with ciaox's rom, he brags about having the most "performant" rom out there and insults people who try to create something more stable. Who cares about overclocking your P500 when you can't leave the house without charging it? I know that there are several tweaks that can be added to the P500 without even needing to overclock, which makes a noticeable difference in the UI but I can still say that battery life sucks and/or the OS is unstable.
Is there a STABLE rom that takes MINIMAL energy with more PERFORMANCE than stock? I do not care about 3d games because this phone is not made for that, no matter how much you try to convince yourself that it can be.
Thanks
Have you tried Mik_os CM7, I get good results with it, Ive never used anything by Ciaox

Hmmm.... Use the v20c from my signature? If you want to remove crapware, flash signed_decrapify_v20c.zip (attached), run
Code:
$ su
# appinst
from terminal emulator and uninstall whatever you want.
Result? Stock rooted 2.3.3, stock kernel, crapware removed.

Ofcourse thats possible! i hav the exact same thing in fact.
Official GB 2.3.3 V20C, rooted with super one click, flashed cwm recovery, threw out all the crapware (if u r referin to useless apps)! ---> is this is what u meant!
Added the script above. Only for stock v20c ROM. If something breaks, your own fault.

[Q] Would you recommend Infusion ROM?

Hi guys, Just got my sgs2 and was looking for a good, stable, rom being close to asop and having little or no samsung bloats helps. Infusion showed up in my search and it seems to have just what I need. I just want to know what people's general experience has been like (trying to look before I leap ). I used darky on the sgs1 which worked quite well for me. I would really appreciate it if you guys can share your experience with infusion rom. and if there are any other rom you can recommend.
Also I currently have my sgs2 rooted with a custom kernel on stuck rom, which for the most part works very and is damn fast and snappy. Do you think having a custom rom would make much difference? Thanks in advance
Yes, it is without a doubt my favourite rom. Very stable, improved my battery life and has everything a custom rom should (deodex, CWM, root etc).
At the end of the day though, try it and see. If you don't like it you can always download your stock rom and flash it back, or even try another custom rom like VillainROM or LightningROM

Should I flash a ROM? or just root?

Hey guys. I just got my unlocked S2. After looking around I like the default apps and stuff. Kies Air is awesome too. If I flash do I lose those apps? Am an experienced user. And think yeah but dunno. Worth flashing a ROM? stock stuff is nice.

I have been thinking the same to!
Hello there. It depends on what you are flashing. There are two kinds of roms, those based on official sammy roms and ASOP roms (like cyanogen) which are clean and built from scratch. If you don't want to lose the other apps I recommend you flash a rom based on official sammy roms or just root because usually ASOP roms don't contain much and they can't use any sammy based programs/apks.

Well for some reason with this phone I like Samsung apps. So no ASOP this time. Weird. Well what are some good Samsung custom ROMs?

Yeah, I like them too. You could try:
Lite'ning Rom
Exynos Extreme
Criskelo Rom
I've tried these and they're good. Samsung goodness but faster and snappier. Enjoy flashing.
Basics are you root if you need root it does not make your phone go faster .
Custom roms may or may not wipe apps its all in the description of each rom .
Little performance difference between custom and stock rom .
jje
Root- It's a must imo.
A Custom ROM- Depends on how mad you are about them. I am not.
I agree just root with cfroot if you like the stock apps etc.
Personally I think KI8 is worth a look.

Try Batista70 2.4 + speedmod kernel K2-16...
Allow me to quote myself:
oinkylicious said:
It gets asked all the time, and as one might expect, you'll just get replies from people saying "I use x ROM with y kernel and I recommend it because z".
There is no suitable answer to your question, instead I would recommend you take a deep breath and have a read through what's already been written and decide for yourself what to pick.

I'm running checkrom revolution atm. I've tried many roms and personally find this the best by far. There's online kitchen app with it a but like rom manager so you can change anything like themes, apps, widgets and even modems! Check it out

thats correct i think that i need to try and try some ROMs but im little bit confused need some advices i mean: like the top5 or top10 or roms so i can give it a try
thanks for all answers
i saw two CheckROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1251688
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1312240
what are the differences between each other?
I have been using VillainROM for ages now, have tried the rest but keep going back to VR. Best battery and closest to stock (I don't normally theme).
However, your question is a bit subjective, everyone looks for different things in a ROM.
Best way is to try a few and see which you prefer.

Try Batista70 2.4 or 2.5. the best of the best!
I suggest you learn how to flash and try out a newer deodexed stock like KJ2, then start flashing customs if you don't like the behaviour of stock roms. Usually stock are very good with the right kernel.

Hardcore's SpeedMod K2-15 is pretty sweet. Give it a search up top ^
In my opinion HyperDroid-Androidmeda is one of the best ROM's
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1288850
For sure it's worth to try. Some people were able to get over 6h display on this ROM
I recommend checkrom revolution v1 with cf root or speedmod and bigbanghds ICS theme. Looks nice, fast, good battery, mostly stable.

so the steps to flash my galaxy s2, are:
1-first root galaxy s2
2-then backup efs
3-then flash it with custom rom?
im right?
thanks
I wanna flash something similar to stock samsung, but better, like no home button lag, the samsung hubs removed, crapware removed, which rom do you like better? villain rom or cognition? both look similar
