Which ROM is the best?
What are the key differences?
Battery life better on which one?
etc..
Flash them and find out or read the threads about them
Still flashing
You really need to flash and keep what you like. They have their own personality.

Yes but if you took two minutes out of your obviously busy life to just read the op of both roms instead of being to lazy, people wouldn't have to take time out of theyre (obviously less important you) lives to explain it to you ,food for thought homie

Umm ive been flashing roms from TW from the start and i still couldnt really find a main difference between the 2...so before u go assuming i didnt look...all u had to do was state at least one difference...last time i checked when a person seeks help in a forum u dnt tell them go find it on their own...thats just my thought on good forum humanity.

The difference was literally in the op in like first few lines onyx is touchwiz free form of obsidian not really sure how you missed it.i would go on but then there would be a new question on the forum of you asking other people to read what I said and sum it up for you anyway no hard feelings I know im way to shallow to stay upset at someone I don't even know good day sir

People
What is this thing with people getting all cocky when someone asks a question?
A forum is just like any other conversation in Real Life: someone asks you a question and if you like to you answer it, you don´t like you don´t say anything or something like "sorry, don´t feel like answering!". But this whole attitude like "I´m too great to answer questions" sucks, man. No need to tell people how dump they are not finding everything out on their own. I encourage people looking for answers themselves but with threads easily over 400 pages long I definitely don´t see a problem in asking such a question here.
Well, just my opinion, though, not forcing anyone into behaving like that.
Have fun guys
Shhhhhhhhhh ,this thread was finally going to go away and then someone else chimes In .Let it be gone noob , let it be gone.

Well, I guess some people spend much more of their time doing things other than living on internet forums, and therefore on occasional breach of forum etiquette is bound to happen.
You're right, using the search bar is much more efficient, it completely slipped my mind. Woops.

Hi just got s2 today exchanged desire HD. Going to root on Monday but noticed there are 3 development areas for this phone how do I know which one is for my phone?
Thanks, PS while I'm here which ROM is recommended and why
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2
Regarding which rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1612881
As for the 3 development. Check about phone under settings. Make sure you have the i9100 instead of the i9100G. If you have the i9100G, there is only 1 development section.
If you have the i9100, just check out the other 2 development sections.

Put it this way mate...
His answer is actually right. Your usage pattern, mine, and his are unlikely to be the same. Taste as well. Therefore best ROM discussion is a moot point.
On different sub forum, he mentioned that you should take precautions differentiating I9100 and I9100G. If you need additional explanation, please read the sticky thread in the Original Dev sub-forum stating the difference.
My last note, don't write anything when you're emotional. It will just backfire.
Note to OP - acting like a **** won't get you the help/info you're after. On the contrary, I'd be surprised if you get much help after that. Kaze asked a valid question.
The 3 development sections have nothing to do with anything re: rooting your phone (or anything else for that matter).
You need to start with something easy by the looks of things, might want to read the Stickies. No roms are recommended. Asking for rom recommendations is the height of laziness. Try a bunch of roms out until you find one you like the same as everyone else.

Note to you, sell your S2 and get a iPhone or Nokia 3310.
When your new to a forum or should I say a part of a forum your there looking for help. I.e. the whole point of a forum.
I know that trying roms out is a personal preference but it is quite nice to have a couple of opinions to start out but hey that was clearly too hard to do.
This is meant to be a question and answers area so asking questions is what is meant to happen. What is the point in having a forum if no one is wiling to have a discussion about things.
Only seen this kind of attitude in certain places, quite sad really

Yes but you miss the point. This question has already been asked a million times over, no need for another topic, go read the ones already created. This is specifically why mods have created sticky topic telling you not to ask this question and why the user who you *****ed about gave you the link.

Plenty of discussions going on.
well put it this way I just read the thread pl4sma told me to read and I'm still not really much clearer why there are 2 sub forums in development area, and by the looks of it I'm not the only one confused so that is a valid question.
The second part I was simply asking for opinions rather than flashing consistently to find what I want. I find as you use the phone you realise which bits are best and change ROM based on that, when you initially start using you don't really know which one to try so it is nice to get opinions and maybe base your first try on what others think.
You have to remember that everyone starts out new and its over time you work things out. Doesn't mean people should be flamed instantly. Search doesn't always give desired results.
Plus if people don't want to answer things over and over then surely they can simply choose not to respond

One is original development the other uses bits and pieces from other devs to build the roms . How to tell as usual its in the stickies .

The what is best rom is banned due to the thousands of exact same posts and the fact that users and their needs are different .
The what is the simplest rom for me to start learning how to flash SGS2 is an acceptable type of question .

No but you normal read the rules followed by the stickies faqs and guides first .
Plus it was you that started the bad behaviour with your reply to the first valid answer you received .

Its the ones who refuse to read and ask the same stuff over and over that dont really belong as they just take .

Thanks for another decent reply, I understand the differences now and is really all that was needed. As you can see from the original question the ROM part was at the end but having a start point would have been nice.
problem I had with first reply is they probably took more time to find the link they did then it would of taken to answer the question.
This discussion would have ended there and then, but instead giving such an unhelpful response caused all of this.
Lessons to be learned by all I think.

He didn't ask for an ETA, he asked if there was any word.. and he got the answer that told him it's being worked on and several others being borderline rude.

What he asked is in the realm of an ETA. It's a useless thread. People are harsh because crap like this clutters up the forum for no good reason. Also, it puts pressure on the developers, when we should just leave them develop in peace, as that will allow them to get jb working sooner.

We're not going to scare him off, he's got nearly 400 posts, I doubt he would leave because somebody told him not to ask for an ETA. And he should probably know that threads like this are useless. People have to learn somehow that threads like this should not be posted, period.
And you can't say people asking for stuff doesn't put pressure on the devs, as we've already had two top notch devs leave xda due to people asking too much of them and posting stupid stuff. If people don't learn the in's and out's of xda, more devs will follow.

It's just JJ.
there is no The Best phone out there. so your question to should i get a better phone is not valid.
each phone has its strengths and wow factors. so you must decide on your priorities.
Don't look for the 'best phone', find out what's best for you.
I personally like it. I do have gripes (build quality, touchwiz) but it's overall a great phone.
