I was thinking of switching from checkrom to cyanogenmod, because its an aosp rom. Hows the general stability of cyanogenmod in the galaxy sII? Is the camera app perfect? I wanna know about stability and battery life too.. thanks.

I used to use CM7 but the devs sort of left it to work on CM9, which by the way is going to be awesome.
When is cm9 going to come out?the stable version I mean?

I've been using the Unofficial builds (link) of CM7 for a couple of weeks and had no problems. It has never crashed for me (some users have reported that it sometimes can crash when using the market). The camera app works with no problems, but the stock Android camera app don't have as many features as the Samsung camera app (I don't really care since I use a camera app from the market). The battery life is really good in my opinion. It definitely gets me through a day of normal usage, though it depends on how much you're using your phone.
And all the apps from the market work just fine?

i use cm7 b4 , the performance is awesome and stable
Choose the latest nightlies, they're 7.2 RC's. They're more stable than the stable release which in the end became a 7.1 RC, not to mention more features, etc...
The latest Buildbot official build is #116 on the Cyanogen Mirror Network. Codeworkx posted #117 on his blog here: http://codeworkx.de/wordpress/2011/12/17/cyanogenmod-7-12172011-galaxys2/
There are various unofficial builds, etc... but I haven't used any of them in a long time. There were some useful changes after #117 that the unofficial builds would have. None of them (that I can recall) critical to core functions however.

You seem to know how to get around so I suggest flashing the latest CM9 nightly For me (and almost everyone ) it works without any probs
I'm using a ROM compiled from the source by a developer here based in the latest google official source (4.0.4) with latest cm9 kernel 3.0.28 wich make the phone FULLY FUNCTIONAL, Check it out:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1604366
also watch my video in my signature where shows how the roms works.
Right now I'm on hydrogen 14.04 rom,
Its latest AOKP Based,
Everything works except autofocus in main camera and led in video camera...
Will try CM nightly soon

Yeah but without Notification toggles and customizable goodies, i don't really think that it'll suit me

Even being Lazy i can Live without toggles, i rather a clean aosp experience
I suggest ICS Resurrection Remix Pro, amazing rom highly suggest it, it doesnt have toggles to worry about, just base AOKP goodness
Bro Hydrog3n is also AOKP based and moreover , i tried the camera update from westcrip's page and it didn't came to any use ....
Same problems there too just pinch zoom added in UI
Does the LED in camera works for you ?
And what about autofocus without macro mode on ?

The camera drivers for the SGS2 are proprietary which makes it more difficult for devs building from AOSP to get features working with the non-Touchwiz camera app, these issues exist in all AOSP based ROMs for the moment, I'm sure there are devs working on it but it may be quite a while before it works as well as it does on Samsung ROMs for obvious reasons. If you want flawless camera you are more likely to find it on Samsung stock at least in the short term.
But my camera works just fine on cm9

Working and working without bugs are 2 different things, there are still issues with the CM9 camera, and since the OP wanted flawless, I wouldn't call it that at the moment.

Yeah he's absolutely correct...
I've wiped the camera data and video LED started working, but autofocus really needs fixture...
BTW- what is proprietary??
Is it itbsomething that can't be modified or what ?

What's some differences in cm10...I've not flashed a cm10 rom yet and I was just curious? Is there any difference in how the UI functions?
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
No difference in the UI.. just the performance of jelly bean is better
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda app-developers app
CM9: Based on Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.4
CM10: Based on Jelly Bean 4.1 - 4..2
Apart from the difference in upgraded Android OS versions, Jelly bean holds a smooth UI with improved notification support and performance. It also adds some cool framework features like the notification dropdown which has been improved significantly. To sum up, if you are willing for stability go for CM9 which can be used as a daily driver but If you want drastic improvements with some bugs to compromise with, choose CM10. On this note, I would also state that bugs are being solved at a speed and so will you get a bugless CM10 soon. Thanks to Rashed, adfad666 & Bytecode.
I tried Rashed's and adfad666 CM10 ROMS and the only difference I found aside of the notification bar was the version number and the countless bugs. ._. !
All jb roms have terrible battery life atm. If you use WiFi a lot that alone is a no go.

Here is a very good link for important features of all android versions (GB, HC, ICS and JB) summarized with visuals:

thank 4 share.
dont worry about that man,
you always have the option to try other custom roms if that issue is bothering you.
just try this Android 2.3.7 base on AOSP v.2.0 with 2.6.35.10 kernel by miroslav_mm
and im sure, it would solve your problem
Oops, just bumped this but I just want to share anyway.
PolshVodka created a CM10 (Android 4.1.2) rom which works with YouTube HQ too well.

CM10 on this phone works nice without google account, facebook and i think now on this phone better is aosp 2.3.7
I used temasek's versions of 4.4.2 and they are absolutely phenomenal, I thank him for his hard work and contributions. However, there are some features that do not work 100% and that is no fault of temasek's, like the camera. For this reason I've been using stock Sammy for the past couple weeks.
When I was on pure AOSP ROMs, I found that video recording in the snapchat app did not work. I'm sure there have been many improvements in temasek's versions. Can anybody tell me if snapchat works 100% in temasek's AOSP versions?

Cyanogenmod made such a crappy work that they shouldn't have done anyway.
The result is a nightly that:
-White screen when offline charge
-No hotspot
-Unstable
-Graphical issues
-Random reboots
-Freezes when disabling auto rotation
-Laggy
-Horrible general graphics performance
Many other bugs,i don't remember.
Flash cyanoid/Optimus rom.
They're full of hotfixes/debugging and offer an acceptable level of performance.

Its obviuos:No good ICS rom,No 3.X kernel we can't flash CM9 and expect no lags.
The best rom 4.0 now is regits one,but it lags anyway.
Still you can get 4.0 experience with a mixed 2.3.6 rom that looks like ICS.
But it isn't
