Best GB kernel for CM7.. - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all. I m new to SGS2 got it last month.. But that time CM9 was bi famous.. But battery backup sucked.. So thinking of going back to GB(Not for stock!!) CM7. So can anyone tell me which is the best kernel for CM7...
Thanks in advance!!

Having been here a while, you should know better than to ask a question like that. Stick to the stock CM7 kernel or try some compatible kernels till you find one you like.

you realize cm7 default kernel is optimized for best working and battery, thus i really dont understand for thinking to best that!

BTW thanks for the REPLY:good:

Best ROM, best kernel, those threads don't last here. The best one is the one that works well on your phone. Try them on for size and make your own decision.

Advice regarding ROM?

I just updated SGA to 2.3.4 (can't see many changes )
Anyways, which is the stable ROM for SGA? (I just Downloaded the unofficial CM7.1 port)....
theres no such thing as "the best rom".
try any rom and if u dont like it, just reflash another one. and if u like it, stick with it.
Expected a better reply
Okay,Which is a good ROM for now?
see, thats the problem. everyone had their own idea which is the "best" rom for them. i might say its this rom. someone else would say another. u'll never get a concrete answer.
Advice is always welcome bro
If someone considers a ROM good, there must be a reason for it.
Btw, which ROM you use??
i'm still using my chinese zckpa rom. from all stock rom, zckpa is the most feature rich close to cm7. but since cm7 is still beta and buggy, zckpa is a good choice for me since i can had feature close to cm while still had stability same as stock. best from both world, feature rich+stability.
Just have to say, by pointing you to the "best rom" of my opinion might as well be depriving other rom developers of motivation to continue their rom. It's not fair to point new users to one rom.
"Expected a better reply?" In here we're to learn and share not to take and expect and demand. Cheers!

Yeah, I'm well aware of amount of time and hard work done in building those ROMs...
Apoligies if anyone is offended
Another question, should I install the CM7.1??
is it stable enough?
read my previous post, and on the thread title of cm7 said "beta". u should get the idea if its stable or not
To me it's stable enough since I use the phone a lot.
Small bugs here and there depends on whether you prefer it or not. Just flash! When you've become part of the flashaholics you will see that the best way to tell if the rom is good for you is to FLASH IT.
Try his zskpa rom too it has excellent features.
I actually like to test all the stuff but it's not my phone & I have to just flash and give it to my friend...
Hence I just wanted to confirm things
(He mainly give emphasis to looks of the phone )
ROM'S for first timers
U can try Ginger Real (its among one of the most stable ROM) otherwise if u want more functionality then go for Cyanogen Mod's either KANG or CYANO ACE ..they are awesome in speed and functionality ...offer a lots of tweaks and best performance as well as looks.
But for a beginner i would suggest Ginger Real ....it's kinda peace max sticks to stock types ..
well thz are just mine saying .....no offense to nybody
Best rom is the one who has not yet been released. Finding the perfect yet nobody did.
Sorry for my english

[POLL] What type of N.E.A.R. would you like to see?

Hi Galaxy SII users! For the first N.E.A.R. ROM (New Era Android Rom), what type of rom would you like to see? A Gingerbread based rom again but with the N.E.A.K. kernel integrated and specially modified for it or a new ICS based rom but for the moment without N.E.A.K. (because has not yet been released kernel source)? Vote all!!!!
I have already voted for ICS XD
I voted GB as ICS is not yet mature. And I need a stable ROM I can depend on for personal use and also for work.
Let ICS wait until Samsung delivers us a full grown version and then use that as base for a new ROM.
GB without NEAK .

If we release a rom, it will be WITH NEAK Kernel....
So please, if you don't like it, just go for another rom, maybe u don't know that customizing a rom is pretty much simple, anyone can do that and it's mainly do a stupid theme (very easy), mod 2-3 apps (or better copy from others), and add a few scripts that no one knows what are they doing...
I've developed ROMs for the GS1, and all i can say is that a rom is ONLY made by a kernel for performances, smoothness and battery life
All the rest is graphical, that's why the NEAR Project is meant to give NEAK users a really good and almost perfect user interface and experience to enjoy their phones as much as possible with the smoothness of NEAK Kernel
Don't like my opinion? Just go away and search for another usual "ROM", probably kanged from other good devs

You didn't understand my right....
The poll is about what kind of NEAR Rom do u want to see...there are 2 options, u said a third one that it will be surely not used....that's all
We gave u 2 options, if u don't want one of them, just don't post here saying that NEAK is bad etc...
Also, as i read, u know almost nothing on how are kernels made, and i'm thinking u see a ROM as a Kernel, when they are completely different in way of development and skills needed
Just my 2 cents
PS: and please don't say that a rom is better than another when only the theme is different

GB N.E.A.R. all the way at the moment.
Until a stable and usable version of ICS comes out, then it must be GB.
There's already too many half arsed attempts at ICS ROM's out there already. I want something that is 100% stable and usable.

Lol i'm 100% sure it will be as good as SH, i knew you coulnd't resist making a rom for the sgs2.
Maybe ics is the way to go now although there isn't a real good base to work with, you can get familiar with ics and try things out...and ics looks more like Simply Honey then gb

Thats one good reason for me to disregard anything you say as being valid .
Why well you seem to be able to twist words and put a totally different context in to the reply .
You say i have no idea how kernels are made nothing in my posts on this thread give any indication as to that .
You keep banging on about custom roms and me thinking a kernel is a rom nonsense .
You jump in again with a lack of knowledge and say
and please don't say that a rom is better than another when only the theme is different
Where the f^^^ have i said that .
Fact i have a self customized rom not from XDA .
Fact that rom has had a number of kernels installed over a number of weeks kernels not themes .
Fact kernel of choice is not based upon builders hype and lets face it they are all hyped as the best yet . its actually based upon two factors one my usage and two an independent test .
Fact is my original reply was a mistake as i read the OP wrong or misunderstood its context .
Fact you then jump down my throat in a number of posts accusing me of not knowing what a kernel is and thinking like some ignorant noob saying one kernel is better cause it has a better theme .
Now my regard for Devs and the work they do is very high even for the ones where i don't use their stuff . it would have been for you also before you started slagging me off with your unfounded comments .
I have no intention of prolonging your stupid replies by posting in this thread again .

[Q] Best ROM/Kernel for Ray?

Hi friends. My girlfriend recently purchased a Ray. We have rooted the phone and now are ready to install a custom ROM. I wanted a review of ROMs from you guys which you have used on your Ray. (Camera, battery life, smoothness, stability etc.)
You can help me by letting me know about the following ROMs
- CyanogenMod 7.2 RC1
- KA11 Ice Cream Sony
- FreeXperiaProject 7.2
- FreeXperiaProject 9.0
- JJ's HYBRID ROM v3
- RayOnium
Or you could just tell me the best ROM for Ray.

Yes but not this kind of question. Clearly you post it at the wrong thread. Why don't you put it on the sticked thread above? And again, none is the Best. It comes down to each person's experiences, and it is not kindly enough to compare something that's been done for passion, with silly ranks. If all ROMs are paid version, you could ask such a question. But it is free so it is ethically not allowed to compare them all, it just makes some war (as i have seen it before on X10MP forum). Try yourself and read all the testimonial. Read before ask will never hurt.

Its just a Kernel or ROM the guy is asking...There wont be anything too sensitive or emotional for Dev if someone helps him choosing a ROM...

Not hating the ROM mind you, just the theme.. And you know me all along since the first mod i popped here, that i kept the theme as stock as possible (at least in rhythm with stock theme), and later you mod the theme for any other. So you knew how much i love sony theme (or too lazy to do a theme of m own) ..
Yes it is just a phone and how nice it is if everybody has the same mind like yours. The thing is, majority of human is human, they like to idolize something and when different peoples with different mind comes together, war..

Well, all I can say is your not yet ready to install custom rom. Unlike any other brand of phones, Sony has a locker bootloader. You have to unlock boatloader first which will void the warranty to install custom ROM.
I'll give you a tip in choosing rom.
1. Go to each rom's thread, read the rom's description first, see if the phone features that are essential for your everyday usage is working as we all now that each has their own pros and cons.
2. Feedbacks, just read feedbacks. It will give you the idea if the Rom is for or not.
3. Number of post, check the number of post. More post may actually mean that many people are using that rom.
Go find it yourself. It's not easy to give comparison as it may hurt the developer's feelings reading some bad comments about their hardworks.

In real i like this topic ... i was reading many things around any Rom ... same with kernels and that's good, what we all together can speak about them all in one place. Coz if u can see, each time when any Rom will be updated, makers did new Topic about it, well why we can't talk about things like that, like new Rom's in one place? For many Dev's it will be nice place too, coz they can see what ppl's like, what they want, for what they downloaded for example MIUI and not Cyan.
Iam interested in this topic, coz iam trying to find balanced Rom, just needed app's in it, everything is working and smooth ... and thats my question of the day, what Rom and kernel(also baseband) draining battery not so fast?
For example on same Rom what i have now iam tried different options in build.prop
pm.sleep_mode=2
ro.ril.disable.collapse=0
but made one mistake in same day iam changed baseband ... and if before my Rom take for whole night 2% of my battery ... after this moves i got 3%.
Today iam trying new baseband and we will see what i can have then.
Well its good to know about them all, i mean Rom's .. and iam tried many of them, last JJ's rom, MIUI from iriijo and bla bla bla. And all what i can say, they all bugged, GB more stable for now and everything is working nice with repack from 4pda .. for nice view i use Go laucher Ex, its overclocked and bla bla bla. I like it, but i love Torch from MIUI with home button and many small things like that in any other Rom.
Well this topic must live, i hope soon we can read here more info and maybe someone can offer to me, how to make my battery life better, coz my phone can stay without charging just 1 day ^^ and one guy at the 4pda forum got 3 days and 14 hours, used 2g(but it was on), not 3g ... used internet, listened music, used wifi also ... i think even 2 days like that should be perfect, but why i can't do the same ?^^
Sorry if my english isn't perfect enough and sorry for to much words in this answer ^^

[Q] Advice for most suitable ICS kernel for my needs?

Hello everyone.
I am running Pure ICS 7.2 Rom and like it very much.
Now i'm in need of finding the most suitable kernel that does not differ alot from stock kernel.
It does not need alot of functionality.
I just want it to be very stable, fast and light..
So no need for 100 of features im not going to need anyways.
The only feature I currently need is the BLN mod.
All the kernels support this, but in the mean time they support 100 of other things, which leads me to the conclusion, the kernel becomes bloated.
Can someone recommend me the most lightweight/fast/stable kernel.
May i remind you, I dont need overclock,underclock,governors,scheudlers etc etc.. I just want to leave it as is!!!!
NEAK kernel says
"The lightest kernel for I9100 ever made!!"
But I find that hard to believe if one looks at the feature list.. It is HUGE!!!!
Thanks in advance
Try neak,its fast and light.im currently using it
Sent from my GT-I9100
neak is good but give a try to siyah too all depends the way u use it an ull get ur results as which kernel is good for u.no one will tell tht a perticular kernel is the no 1...we all experiment an thts the way it is......cheeerz
Tried a few liking Neat Rom stock and rooted and if you want the ICS look just add ICS Domination 4.1

please read before posting - or try understand the difference between a kernel and rom...
@op the only way to find out is test them yourself - recommended with BLN, would be neak or siyah obviously

Please guys be more precise and read the first post again!!!
I know I can just try different kernels as the first few posts suggest.
But c'mon guys why reinvent the wheel with kernels as well?
I know its a good idea to try different ROMS, and I give the same advice to others, and I have already tried my share of ROMS.
But its just plain stupid doing the same with kernels as well.
In the siyah forum post, some people complain about random restarts etc. The kernel motto is "One kernel to rule them all"..
I DONT NEED SO POWERFULL KERNEL!
I dont need 100 features, 100 governors, support for CM9 and all its functionality etc. etc.. I just want to install and go.
Dont want to play around with scheudlers, governors, OC/UC etc. etc..
You guys catch my drift?
I have very specific demands which I stated in the first post.
I didn't just ask "Which kernel should I use..."
Therefore please only post something, if you have something usefull to say. Not just try NEAK kernel! And why exactly should i try NEAK kernel?
In that forum, people complain about lagging issues etc..
I DONT NEED THAT!
I need a kernel I can flash and forget! Dont want to visit XDA every 2 days to check for updates to the kernel!
Exactly like stock kernels and ROMS. They are only updated maybe once every 6 months or so, because they are stable, and dont crash too often!
I need to have the same experience with the kernel!
well mate, to be honest with ya ICS kernels still obviously aren't 100% stable as sources have only been released for a short period... it obviously sounds like you want a stock Kernel or a kernel similar to SpeedMod, but guess what? they don't have BLN which you stated you wanted. Both Neak and siyah do, and are decent choices, some people prefer one over the other, there is no one better choice, definitely at this current stage in ICS development - so choose one this is why people are saying test one and see for yourself; otherwise move back to gb if you really need BLN and complete stability.

Thanks man for your honest post
Coming from HTC Desire, I was kind of shocked Samsung omitted the notification led ( why o'why would they do that )
And off course all the reviews of SGS2 were praising the phone so much, they didn't state the obvious con of not including this led
Why don't you stay with the cf root kernel until the other kernels get a stable version?

I know what you mean! I had a galaxy s2, however was stolen and found a HTC Desire cheap, so used that for a while, loved the led notification light! However couldn't overlook the fact of the speed of the galaxy s2 and finding one cheap shortly after (thanks ebay!), I reverted back to the s2; one thing its missing is the led, for sure! Though while we do have BLN, it does affect the battery life so isn't really ideal. Though back on topic, if we wait a month I believe we will have stable, fast kernels (whilst also having BLN of course ) , which will shred gb and the custom kernels we had for that.

Best AOKP ROM out now!!!

So guys i know there are alot of AOKP roms for the i9100 out now, but wich one do u guys recommend me to flash and why?
Some good AOKP roms out now:
1. hydrogen ics
2.bezke's aokp ics
3.ressurection ics v1.2(recommended)
4.dragon ics
Which one's ''THE BEAST'' ???
Personal preference. You're going to get answers saying 6 of one, half a dozen of another.
Try them out, decide for yourself.
there is no such thing like "The Best" ROM in Android as far as i know ... bcause every ROM have own plus and minus so .... u better try one and other to get the best result for ur personal use
hey,well this is not a simple question.u decide what is the best for u...i try them all and for me the best for now is hydrogen ics 08.04.
good luck!i hope that u find the rom u like
cheers!
HyDroG3n ICS 10.04 = smooth
Another to consider is the R4 ROM, this very well.
Hydrogen seems to be getting a quick support.

This article should be a good introduction.

There is no such thing as the "best rom". You have your phone setup differently to everyone else, you use your phone differently to everyone else and your phone came out of the factory slightly differently to everyone else's.
A rom that runs well for me might not run well for you.
I suggest you go the development sections of the forum & read the first few pages and the the last 10-20 pages of the particular threads devoted to different roms. That way you will get an idea of the features/pluses/minuses of each rom, and also see other users' experiences with that rom.
Then you can test different roms for yourself to find one that works best for you.
