Okay so I have been around here snooping for a while and etc etc.
So I need some help. I have looked around and don't get a lot of the tech talk here and what each ROM really has about it.
So I got a Galaxy S2 (Rogers) Canada
Since I use it for everyday use and work this is what i want.
Good Battery Life
Quick
Attractive Theme which looks nice yet simple.
STABLE!
So basicly something that looks really good and clean, but quick and doesn't lag.
Thanks

What model number is it? Cause idk if it's a i9100
If it is the 9100 I'd try resurrection v2. 1

Sorry about no details.
Its the GT-i9100M
Android Version 2.3.3 is what i am currently running
Ressurection looks too old school for me.

It actually has lots of customization. And has everything you're looking for. You could also try hydra h2. I hear it's very fast.
Thanks if it helps

Just doing a poll here to help new GS2 users decide what rom they will choose as well as converting users like me to newer roms.
So have a vote, what rom do you use on your Galaxy S II and go on don't be lazy tell us why you like it so much and how its different from everything else out there.
Im on Darky Rom2, My friend has Darky's on his SGS I and so when i got my SGS II i thought I would take a peak, I find it stable and smooth, but lacking in features other roms have
Stock just working brilliant with good battery live and very very stable

Oh don't get me wrong I love it otherwise I would of swapped, but with some other roms you get theme chooser, Callrec and a few other intergrated things that aren't available in Darky's, doesnt make it a bad rom though.
CM7, because it's one of 2 ROM's that supports the PS3 controller. All the other ROM's will eventually nick parts of it anyway so I may as well get the features direct from the source.
Stock, rooted.
Debating something different, but want to be armed with more knowledge first. Most important criteria for me are: battery life, stability, ALL phone functionality retained, and lastly aesthetics, something about blue system colours sings to me.
I'm on cockrom v8.2. I like it because it's hardcore.
Thanks for the helpful thread btw, really original.
Sensation rom because its beautiful. However I do find stock is most stable.
I'm very happy with the performance and stability of the stock ROM, more than I ever imagined. TouchWiz 4.0 is actually very, very fast, IMO.
I've tried other launchers... even paid versions... and I still think that TW performs wonderfully fast and fluidly on the Galaxy S II. It seems that Samsung really did something right here. So, while I love the fact that the devs are always working on new stuff, I'll trade stability for the bleeding edge these days.
My 2 cents.
Cognition 1.5.1 - fast, stable and battery-friendly.
Miui for me at the moment, fantastic ROM. However with the BT not working I will probably be going back to stock until thats fixed. Really need BT to work.

The best rom in every think
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
I'm using cognition 1.5.1, I like this rom the most because its decent on battery life, stable, and stock looking, besides the added power menu (reboot, download, and recovery), and added drop down menu allows for data on/off.
I am using check rom v2....and the battery life and stability is excellent so far. The dev answers all questions, and after trying ALL the others available, i find this is my personal favourite.
The full screen contact pictures when making a call are great and checks ram script make this a wonderfully smooth rom.....i recommend to anyone.
Surprised to see that u dont have gingermod rom listed.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1220283
Its the best of both worlds. Has the ASOP looks and u can add any stock feature that u want.
I am an asop rom person and with this rom there are no deficiencies.
Cognition here as well: close to stock with all the right mods to make it a smooth and battery friendly experience. I also enjoyed using Sensation very much.
Have been using Cognition since I got my sgs2 and it is wonderful rom. Like the above poster has said it is close to stock and better.
Hey guys I'm new and recently rooted my gs2 and I'm wondering which rom is the best for speed and battery improvement if anyone could possibly help me out on this it would be appreciated.

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.
Ok thank you very much. I will do just that. Have you heard of the cognition rom? I hear it's good but I'm just looking for more input on it.

Hi, I've been using the old build since it was released. The rom is basically an ICS-ed Stock rom, but only made n-times more beautiful and faster. I was never a fan of stock roms until I tried it and it made me love the features of stock roms.
Though it wasn't as fast as Jusada's or some CM7/9 roms, it was still quite smooth and fast. I think that it also has less bugs compared to CMs since it is based on stock roms. I'm not sure though since I never had any problem in any rom unless I overclock my ace.
Anyway, it's worth flashing since you can always back-up your nand to test it
Aww this was my first rom!
I will flash it again If its out I was tired when it was down

Hello, got a galaxy tab for my little sister. I need a ROM that is fast, and rock stable no fuss. Does anyone have any recommendations? I am not familiar with samsung galaxy tabs. Thank you for your time!
Do you have the P7500 (3g) or the P7510 (wifi)?
For P7500 I can recommend Overcome (forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1348533)
For P7510 you have way more options, but since I don't own this version I can't really help you.

For a 7510, Task14 is by far the best and most stable. Here is the link for ya

I've had no issues on Task 14 either. Nothing against the other roms, I just haven't used them. I recommend ADW launcher, it seems a bit snappier than the stock touchwiz launcher.
Another vote for Task 14. It has been by far the best I have tried.
Sent from my GT-P7510 using xda premium
If you want the best honeycomb its GALAXY Task 14, the best Ice Cream Sandwich in my opinion would be the AOKP Build 32.
Hope I was useful to you
Agreed with most everyone here: task14 is the fastest, most stable, and fully functional ROM that I have used on my 7510 wifi.

Hi caaznkid, I just wanted to say "kudos", for getting your little sister a great tablet. Top marks, for being a good brother.
I recently upgraded my girlfriend from an ASUS Transformer, to a Wi-Fi only, Galaxy Tab 10.1. Much lighter and thinner, which actually makes a difference. She never used the other hardware features of the Transformer which make it nearly twice as thick.
My girlfriends Tab is currently running Coffebeans ICS Unofficial build. And my girlfriend who's a mere mortal, not a geek. Hasn't complained once.
Kudos. Anil
Hello everyone I will put task 14 on for her then thank you so much for all your suggestions. I think the tablet is great for entertainment as well as learning things especially those interactive books. Hopefully it does some good for her education too and not just games and videos haha.

Hey galaxy s2 community! Just a quick question for you guys and gals. I'm ready to flash a ROM on my phone and I think I've narrowed it down to ether aokp or shostock2. I'd like to stick to ics now that the i777 has official ics (more stable and better features) so I think I may wait like a month. I'm looking for something fast (I like showing off my quadrant scores to my HTC fan boy friends) and stable, a good battery life would be great=). Can you help me choose between aokp and shostock2? And don't turn this into a war guys=) we all know they're both amazing ROMs, I just want to know which has better battery life and stability, speed is a nice bonus=) thanks!
I come from a captivate with darkyrom if that tells anyone what kind of ROM I like=)

We cant choose for u. Just flash them both and see what u like. Each rom suits each persons needs differently.

You could dual boot them using the siyah kernel. If you choose to do that download the version WITH mic swap, and try them both without flashing back and forth.
try both and see which works best for you.
As noted... no ROM fits everyone.. try a few, and see which works best for YOU.
