I have been having numerous issues trying to get ICScrewd to run on my phone and I am almost certain its a kernel issue.
It was suggested that I swap out the kernel before flashing and that sounds like a great idea to me.
Except...... I don't know how.
Is it as simple as taking the zImage from the kernel zip I want and placing it in the rom zip I want?
Can I ignore the META-INF folder or do I need to somehow merge that over too?
I am sure there is a wiki or a how-to on this but I have looked and cant find it. Its probably because I don't know phrase my search.
But anyway, if someone could point me in the right direction I would be very grateful.

Yup it is that simple, just replace the file with the one you want.
You can also clean up with kernel cleaning script then flash entropy kernel in recovery

My poor phone locks up even in recovery running Siyah. Its crazy.
I am going to try this like you suggested in your thread.
I should be reporting back soon.
It worked!
So far, so good.
I havent had a single locked up screen or SOD since I flashed.
Thanks guys!
Interesting, i've been using siyah for a long time and never experienced any issues.

Just curious since I have never tried a mod with any major changes, what are the benifits of changing out the Kernel, and what are the differences between them?

For myself the benefit was actually being able to run the ICScrewd rom at all.
In my experience of several years of flashing, some kernels just wont work with some phones.
It sound odd and all that, but my real world experience has led me to give each kernel I am interested in several tried and if they continually crash my phone I move on. I have no idea why this would be. Coming from the Captivate I tried all sorts of kernel and rom combinations. If they didn't work well I just moved on.
As far as different kernels go, some have better battery life than others due to built in tuning I believe. They can be cleaned up to help your phone run faster. And obviously from my experience here in this thread, help your phone be stable.
Excuse my noobness, please. I figured this would be a pretty relevant thread to post this question.
I flashed Siyah 2.6.9 via Odin and then in recovery installed ICScreweD. Did doing so revert my kernel to the older version of Siyah used in the rom?
If so, can I just flash in the newer version using Odin or should I research another method?
This is my first root/mod so I'm still a little nervous about messing up.

yes this reverted to the older kernel included in the rom, to flash the newest kernel. Load the zip of the kernl onto your sd card, enter CWM and flash the zip. Much easier to do than with odin.
Thanks! I was pretty sure that was the case but figured I should ask anyway. I've been lurking these forums for a while and it's awesome how helpful this community is to everyone.
While on the subject of ICScreweD, is there anything I will lose by going to the green edition? The website is kinda unclear as to if there are any features not yet available in the green edition.

This rom is what I am calling a "zip rom" (non AOSP) Rom with some AOSP Apps. Once again this rom is not a built from source rom (AOSP), it was built from a ota.zip, (hence the phrase "ZIP ROM").*
Most TouchWiz applications have been removed, except the ones kept in order to keep the Rom stable. Apk files have been deodexed, optipng, zipaligned and some apps are built from source. Shutdown animation was changed and a few ringtones were added.
Apps removed:*
A lot!*
Apps were placed in /sdcard/extras/ folder:
Memo.apk
com.androidapps.spare_parts.apk
puzzle_lock.apk
TATLiveWallpapersOceanWave.apk
VoiceRecorder.apk

Smoked glass blue was my first ROM and theme ever, and a smoked glass blue theme was the last theme I ever put on my Droid.
got some more pictures?
Does this have the puzzle/glass unlock screens or the stock one?
It is just deodexed with some aosp apps and blackmod from the fascinate themes section. What is the custom shutdown anim?
is this compatible with the 1.2 boot animation voodoo kernal?
and sorry a noob question,
what exactly is a deoxed, zip rom? what is the main difference between that and a normal aosp rom?
Very slick. Awesome that you kept some of the apps as "extras".
It's nice and quick. Nothing not to like about that.
Thanks!
Uh oh. It tells me the Swype package installed is for a different device and I can't swype, only tap. Why the heck would Swype be removed in the first place?
Thanks for the nice rom. I had to revert back because removing the vicemail breaks the dialer. I always bump the voicemail button in the dialer (even though I use google voice) and with the voicemail app gone the dialer will crash killing the call.
I have tried to restore a deoxed version back in but never get it working. Outside of that it's a great rom. If you stuck voicemail back in or we could remap buttons to google voice like you can in windows mobile it would be perfect for me.

If you could get rid of launcher pro and twlauncher. I know people typically cry about it, but instead could you make different variations of your rom?

Some wallpapers courtesy of WickedBeav
hacked lights.default.so for BLN (if using compatible kernel) - Neldar
AOSP style lockscreen (to switch back to puzzle lock, create a file named /data/local/enable_glass_lock, or if you are using voodoo5 and my custom cwm "red" recovery, look under advanced options)
Removed:
ALL VZW and Bing crap (except for browser, looking to fix that, but Dolphin HD is better anyways )
As much TouchWiz crap as I could, including livewallpapers (to conserve space n such)
If you are using a voodoo5 kernel, you DO NOT need to uninstall or wipe data or anything, just flash as you normally would (provided you are using my custom cwm "red" recovery). But, as always, if you have issues wiping data is not a bad idea.
Enjoy.

silly install question
I presume one has to go through the whole DJ05 install process documented elsewhere before flashing this rom, right? Contrarily, I assume it would be a monumentally bad idea to flash this over a DI01 superclean with some ancient voodoo kernel, right?
Just checking ..

This would be the ROM portion. You'd still need to flash the modem and a kernel to go to DJ05
So if you wanted to revert back to stock (just in case), would you just nandroid restore from a DJ05 restore point? Or do you have to flash adry's DJ05 ROM? Thanks!

So I could in theory flash this and then flash the stupidfast dj05 and then flash the radio? Does the order matter?
I had it in my head I would have to flash the kernel rom and radio that were in that Dj05 thread and then flash all this stuff over it. I guess that was wrong.
Also, is there a way to use ODIN on a mac?
Welcome to ThiaiZ V0.2
I saw that a lot of people out there would like a stock,stable,fast and rooted ROM, so i decided to make one on my own, keeping it as much as stock as possible.This is my first SGS2 ROM (got the device for 3 days ago), coming from HTC Desire which i have always developed my own ROMs.Be patient and I do really want to help this community to grow and find the best for this incredible peace of engineering called Samsung Galaxy S II.Suggestions are always welcome.
Here is how it looks:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BgWJcjYbJVA
Features:
-Base: XWKF3.
-Kernel: CF-Root-SGS2_XW_XEU_KE2-v4.0-CWM4.(Thanx ChainFire)
-Deodexed,Zipaligned and Signed.
-Some extra tweaks for speed and memory.
-Camera tweak.
-Everything from Samsung is still there.
-Gtalk 1.3 with video
-Native android SIP stack for Wifi AND 3G calls
-No themes (as I said, I want it stock).
-The only change is startup wallpaper.
-CRT animation. "Sorry for that guys,but u can disable it anyways"
-Desktop as Browsers UA as default. "Ops, sorry for that too, but i said i would do".
Changelog V0.2
-Apk tweaks for speed (it seem to have worked).
-Phone.apk bug from v0.1 is fixed here.
-Changed to this Kernel CF-Root-SGS2_XW_OJV_KF1-v4.0-CWM4.zip - Come on guys, choose the kernel that fits your Rom better, the one here works better for my needings, so feel free, there are lots out there.
Known bugs:
-You tell me, please.
How you Install it:
http://www.multiupload.com/1DAB68308S
-Download and copy the .ZIP file onto your SD or Phone.
-Restart device in CWM (Vol up + Home + power)
-Backup your old Rom
-Wipe data + cache (All your data will be gone)(V0.2 itself will wipe your data)
-Choose "Install Zip from SD card"
-Browse the .ZIP file and install it.
-Boot device and ENJOY.
-I'm not responsible for your mistakes you should know what you are doing.
**I do really recommend the use of Tegrak Overclock**Buy it from Market.
-I do play a lot and we know that some games like (Asphalt 6) are made to not use the whole GPUs power , it means lower FPS.But at the same time I want a longer battery life the screens to move smoothly and i don't want the device to overheat, so what I did is.
-Install Tegrak Overclock
-Load the modules
-Go to GPU optmization and change values to:
-267 - 975 and 200 - 950, if it works for me should work for you too.
Old Versions.

You can actually use the Kernel you think fits better,at least for now when all the Roms out there are based on official samsung bases and so are the kernels.When I first excrated the Base, a KF1 kernel came together, but i decided that this one just works better.I'm gonna start doing a research about kernels, cause i don't think any of those out there matchs my expectations 100%.

Thanks for the positive feedback. Was planning on starting with the icons today. Will give it a go and see what I can do I just wanted to get the framework right before modding the icons
Awesome work man !!
I was keenly searching for some like this .. awesome work man for incorporating features of both AOSP and TW in single rom.
Although I was wondering , if it would be possible to change DPI to say 210-220 which would make the rom rather pleasing to eyes. With new S3 touchwiz (or even the old one) everything looks so big. So if the LCD density can be altered in build.prop such that dailer is not affected, that it would be amazing.
Keep up the good work !! will give the rom a try today ..
Love it so far....could you port the s3 lock screen by any chance?

can a mod move it to android dev
can you add some 3g tweaks?
Nothing original, only a simple rom. Must be moved to the developement section.

3g should be fixed now as of V1.1. The modem was changed to a more stable version with reliable 3g and Wifi
Portal Rom V1.1 Download has been linked on the 1st post
Portal Rom 1.1
Everything listed in Version 1.0
Removed some Apps that can be installed from the Play Store
Settings got new Glow icons to match the rest of the Rom
S-Voice was included as a default feature including wake up features and Dock features
Changed the Modem to XXLPS as it obtains a Wifi lock quicker and in general seem more stable than the new XXLPX.
3G and Wifi Stability resolved. It was related to the latest modem driver.
Rom got a Performance boost by removing start-up scripts that was running in the background. This is not affecting functionality but you should see better battery and overall performance - Let me know please if it made a difference
TW4 has been updated and it should respond a little bit smoother than before.
Love how the OP is trying so hard to ignore all those messages about "not original" or "must be moved"
Seriously though it must be moved!

i wouldn't say he is ignoring..simply not paying attention to post that point out nothing of real importance....your post would be such a post....
simply posting something to be noticed does not make your post a good post....
sure it may not belong here, but that is for MODS to decide, not some user looking to point fingers....contribute, develop, or simply read and don't post anything...
OP, i am finding the phone locks up like a biznotch when i answer a call....the screen goes black and i am unable to waken it back up...pretty annoying when trying to call my voicemail!
Look nice. Loved it if all of the samsung bloatware were removed

Is that on V1.1 or on V1.0?
V1.0 was using a flakey modem where V1.1 it was replaced by a proven reliable Modem.
I am in essence reading what everyone is saying and its sad that pointing the finger is all they are able to contribute to my rom I worked on and other ppl's roms. What constitutes original? Considering what original means "unique" please show me a rom exactly like mine?
Would only the 1st CM9 then be considered original and ALL the others then just be classified as "nothing original" as its just theming?
I did have this discussion with a Mod and it really don't matter to me where it is hosted. This is something I am doing for the users not for myself.
Problem occurred on both v1 and v1.1.
I think it may have to do with the UV. Going to fully wipe and reflash 1.1.
Will use voltage control to change the UV settings.

This is a continuation of my previous ShishirROM series of ROMS that started out on Gingerbread 2.3.4, and have evolved and expanded to today, where the latest version of ShishirROM is based off of XWLPG 4.0.3. Aberration is built completely independent of those and the only resemblance to my old ROMs is the dialer, which was an original creation anyways, but at it's heart, it's the next step. The ROM focuses on speed and smoothness and battery life. It incorporates common-sense fixes and ground-breaking features as well as third-party applications that bring something new to the table every time you use them. The ROM was inspired by the old Samsung gingerbread ROMS -- they were stable, fast, and just worked. This ROM manages to bring the same sort of feel back to the table while maintaining an updated look similar to the Galaxy S3 series of phones, and Android's resident Holo design. The Aberration Settings application is an extension of this ROM that lets you change some deeper settings, such as using Lidroid's beautiful 14 Notification Widget Mod instead of the default themed widgets, as well as provide an easier way for users to update to the latest version of Aberration, no matter which model of the Galaxy S2 they're running. This ROM aims to be the ONE ROM that supports every Galaxy S2 phone, and brings them on par with the super-phones coming out later this year. It's an update away from giving your phone four cores, two gigs of RAM, and a 4.8" SAMOLED HD display.
Features:
ODEXED (for smoothness)
Based on XWLPM
Siyah
Aberration Settings app
Lidroid 14 Quick Toggles
AROMA Installer
Google Now
Lux Auto-brightness
Opensource Sensors library (more accurate and faster)
Holo/Jellybean inspired styling
Apex/GS3/GS2 Launcher
GS2/GS3 Music application
Easy-Update
Samsung Dive
Complete development cycle
Directions:
Install i9100 zip in CWM
Wipe Data
Configure installation & install ROM
Reboot
Set-up ROM, download apps, etc.
Reboot again to settle everything

Wrong section, Should be in Development, not original development. However can you explain the features of this ROM and perhaps a link to the original.

I built this ROM directly from XXLPM stock, not ported it from another unrelated device, sorry if that was unclear. The Galaxy S2 i777 and Galaxy S2 i9100 are EXTREMELY alike, so alike in fact that about five files hold the changes between them. No actual porting was done.
And I can't provide a link to the original since I made this, and this is the original lol. It's just a Stock Samsung ROM based off of 4.0.4 LPM with a few tweaks and fixes thrown in.
EDIT: Let me try and be more clear: this ROM was built off of XXLPM. It was initially tested on the i777 because that happens to be the device I have, but the development of the ROM was exactly the same for both versions. The i777 and i9100 versions are very different. Different modems, kernels, libs, etc. This ROM truly was built for both devices in mind, therefore it isn't a port.
EDIT2: Moved

What he means is that what special features or original features does the rom have in order for it to stay in the original development for example paranoidandroid, it has the capability of changing per app dpi, from phone ui to a tablet ui etc. Jkay framework which can customize almost everything from the lockscreen to the notification bar. Because if it is just a cooked rom with some features that has been gotten from other devs, it should belong to android development. But i may be wrong, maybe you have something special in the settings you mention on the OP. Good luck on your rom bdw.
Cheers!

Depends specifically which zip. Go for it and if it messes up, just flash this ROM again to go back to default
Hello,
I wanted to try your rom, so i downloaded the i9100 zip and followed the installation steps and i got installation completed without any problems.
Then i choosed to reboot. The screen showed the Siyah logo, then the phone gave me a sound... and then nothing. Black screen. I have tried again and again but the same result. Maybe i am doing something wrong.
Thanks
too much bloatware dude.. maybe make a slim version
same issue. after siyah bootanimation a sound and then the screen blanks out.

What kind of a rude person are you ? This is no way to post something on a thread
Anybody else facing this issue. Any suggestions for this issue.
For everyone facing the black screen issue, first make sure you're running the i9100 version, and confirm that you wiped data before installing, then try flashing another i9100 kernel before you boot up for the first time. It sounds like the kernel didn't get flashed for some reason. I'll have to do some more digging. If anyone can grab a logcat then i'd appreciate it, although I don't know if the Log service got started after the Siyah screen.
If it still doesn't work, it may not have gotten installed properly. Try going into mounts/storage in CWM and wipe /system, manually do a factory reset/wipe data, and wipe cache as well. That should get everything.
EDIT: If you're getting the sound after boot, that just means the boot animation isn't showing for some reason. Give it five minutes and see if the phone boots up. If so then I'll upload a fix for this when someone confirms that's the issue.

I left the phone on black screen after sound nearly for 25 minutes, but the phone didn't boot up

I don't quite understand what you mean by bloatware, since I allowed you to pick if you wanted to install most of it, and I allowed you to remove bloatware post-install anyways. Can you list some apps that you'd want an option to remove?

:/ Try a different kernel. or any of the other solutions I outlined.
