I'd really like to get the Galaxy S2, but not without Cyanogen Mod support. What do you think are the chances that the Galaxy S2 will get CM? The Galaxy S still has no stable CM Rom.

Polar bears don't.
But why doesn't the Galaxy S have a stable CM ROM then?
Stock Media Codecs > CM
if they find a way to keep all the goodies from Samsung then I'm all for it
Frankly, I don't care about the Samsung programmes. If it can be turned off, then ok, but I'd rather have the whole CM experience.
This hardly seems like the right forum for this thread...
So what's the right forum, if not the Galaxy S II Android Development Forum?
Android Development should only contain threads based on actual projects/ROMs/kernels/etc being developed. Discussions about what may or may not be coming to the device should go in general. Best rule of thumb in my book: if you're not actually developing something yourself, a thread shouldn't be started here.
Sorry if I came off like a prick - I just know that this ends up becoming more work for the mods who have to comb through and move threads around.
Also I apologize for theoretically hijacking your thread - Just trying to help keep people in the know
hopefully it will get CM
i really cant stand touchwiz

No problem, I didn't know that.
Maybe a moderator can move the thread into the appropriate forum.
What I really like to know is why the Galaxy S still hasn't got a stable release. Is this also to be expected with the S2?

I agree. Good post, and yes, this should have been in General. Just keep that in mind for the next time We are all excited for this phone, and i personally think that Samsung stock ROM is also quite good. However, to each his own, and I am sure that CM will be out for this phone too
Cheers!

The SGS2 is similar to the SGS in many ways, therefore CM will be difficult to port over.
Especially that there is no Nexus S 2 (a lot of CM7 is from the Nexus S)
Don't expect CM7+ to be running on the SGS2 anytime soon, although it probably eventually will. That's unless anything else happen (a/a genius comes along b/samsung open source more stuff c/Nexus S 2 is released d/sgs2 shares even more with the sgs than I though and current work can be ported over more easily)
This phone is fast enough without CM7. A clean up of the stock ROM, a new launcher and its sweet enough!

It will still miss the CM Tweaks.
A shame that Cyanogen has chosen the G2x as his next phone. The Galaxy S2 is way better than the G2x.

i'm not aware of the history, why exactly was it difficult to bring cyanogen to the original galaxy s, and hence this SGS2 as well? wasnt it like any other phone, the source was released, and cm team built from that?

Open-source drivers are hard to find. The system is open source but the drivers are not.

Isn't this the case with any other phone?

Buy the devs a SGS 2 and they can work on it . Bit hard to work on a phone you dont have .
jje
Well, apparently they have a Galaxy S, otherwise there wouldn't be Release Candidates.
I have just bought Galaxy S so I'm complete noob here. Previously I owned Galaxy Spica, but this is completely different. I know you are avoiding such questions, but there are so many ROM's, kernels, firmwares that I really can't decide which one to use. I haven't found any up2date comparison between ROM's, so could you please recommend me a good one or at least explain me the main differences?
Thanks.
I guess the question is "What do you need?"
Do you want a flashy shiny rom, there are those, and if you want a minimal rom, there is those. Try some out, I've tried like 20 roms, before i got satisfied..
happy hunting!
I'd like good all-rounder, but if I have to choose, I'd rather have a good looking and usable one. I see that CM, DarkyMod and MIUI are the most popular. Maybe I should choose MIUI, what do you think? Or should I go with GalnetMIUI?
p.s.: I think mods should move this thread to I9000 category
I would recommend this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=814091 .
Thank you for first solid recommendation. As I'm not allowed yet to post into development section, could you explain me in short what are the advantages over official 2.3.5 (except root)?
CyanogenMod maybe? Ive been using it on many of my phones. Its awesome.

"This ROM will make your Samsung Galaxy S blazing fast". The other advantages are listed in the thread. Check the "Features" section.
Hey guys, I come from the "Mytouch 3G Slide" development forum, and well..
You guys just have so much its getting me lost lol.
My question is:
with sooooooooooo many roms.. which are the most used and people like the most?
Something that has features to impress the person next to you, its fun, fast, and nice.
Where I come from there's mostly just Cyanogen Roms.. so yeah, im lost, you guys have a LOT of roms.

Look all I want to know is which ROM(s) are good.. You guys have tried them, I have NOT.
I want experience from people who have tried them.
I have rooted LOTS of devices..
Dont go assuming I can't root because I'm posting a simple question.
The ones I tried and that I like the most are:
CriskeloRom V34 (under Galaxy SII Android Development)
CheckROM Revolution V4 (under Galaxy SII Original Android Development)
I hope that helps
Good place to get started
Best way to get started with roms on the SGS2 is go visit here:

one mans good is another mans poor
just read through some of the more popular threads, you can see the number of replies in each one, and flash it if you want to. If you dont like it, flash something different.
Its not rocket science
I've used Checkrom, Criskelo Rom & Hyperdroid. Personal fave is hyperdroid rom. Fast, fluid and amazing battery life

CheckROM ftw!! bundled with either siyah or speedmod you've got yourself a winner
Thank you all!
That was very helpful
btw, I thanked all of you.
I can't come into this train wreck of a thread without asking why you feel the need to have a 600 pixel high signature?
Try FluxMOD best battery life hehehe

What up!
My mom just bought a Galaxy S2, which I am to borrow for two weeks while I am going to the states, since LG pushed the Nexus 4 launch date in Denmark
I am really not a fan of TouchWiz, and I want a pure android experience.
But I don't know of any Galaxy S2 roms, I was thinking AOKP Milestone 1 or Cyanogenmod 9.1 stable?
It's my moms phone, so it can't have any bugs.

CM 9.1 stable is stable only in name it still has minor bugs, infact there is no perfect rom even considering stock roms, you have to actually test and find a suitable one yourself, see for in cm 9.1 features like Wifi direct don't work , radio is disabled and H/W decoder doesn't support all common formats like avi. So since it's for your mom who I expect to be less tech savvy I say give her a debloated samsung based custom roms, i recommend you to try Neat Rom Lite v4.0 based on stock jelly bean rom, all features are working and no known bugs.
Using GT - I9100
I thank those who give helpful comments
I expect the same from others.

Anyway no moderators have taken any action against these kind of threads and if moderators think its ok to let this question be here, i thought it would be better to answer the poor guys, instead of ignoring/ridiculing/scolding them and anyway answering the questions isn't against the rule so heads up.

Hello fellow citizens of the world. I'm sorry if this is not the place for this kind of post, but I tried to find other places to post but none seemed right for this post, so I decided to post here. I would like to ask any developer for a request on a ROM for Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-i9100.
As many of you know, Galaxy S4 recently came to the market, and I bet I am not the only one who like the looks and functions of it. Even though Samsung have their own special version/edition of 4.2.2, I think it is pretty nice.
I have a request for a custom Samsung Galaxy i9100 ROM, based on the S4's i9505XXUAMDE, A.K.A. S4's 4.2.2
I would like to have as many of the functions as possible, especially the status bar with all the options, expandable notifications (etc.), and the TouchWiz launcher.
(Yes, I have searched the web for anything like this)
I'm sure there are more people out there who would love a ROM like this. Feel free to add anything you think might fit and be nice as well.
Thanks in advance.
Hate to break it to you, but a couple of things:-
1) Devs generally don't read Q&A much.
2) Devs don't do requests unless it relates to something they're already working on or want to work on for themselves.
So the TL;DR is, if you want a rom like that, you probably want to learn to code & make it yourself. Doesn't matter how many people you get in this thread saying 'We want blah blah blah', it doesn't work like that. XDA isn't a democracy.
