I9300 Firmware - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Sorry if this has already been answered, but I've searched far and wide, and only been able to find the TW UX Launcher and a port of the very early 4.0.3 I9300 firmware. So that already kind of indicates an answer to my question, but I'd rather ask to make sure.
Are there any ROMs based on the stock I9300 firmware?

None as of the moment. There was a project long time ago about porting i9300 rom to sgs2 but that project was abandoned. I saw one rom that was skinned with sgs3 theme and based on stock ics for sgs2 but unfortunately the dev has been banned due to creating multiple accounts and giving other roms a bad name (something like that).

Yes, that one
Edit: I just heard from sources on what happened to him. It's unfortunate though.

I believe u got it wrong.. 9100 is the old where 9100G is the newer version
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
There is no dedicated forums, as for Roms please look in the developer sections for thread titles that say i9100G.
Word of advice if it says i9100 do not flash it, it will brick your device.

But performance wise I9100 is better than G version. Also I have only found 3 custom roms for I9100G. If u have any idea of more custom roms or developers please guide me.

[Q] Will the i717 ever get an AOSP/AOKP ROM?

Hello All,
I'm new to this thread as I just came over from the N7000 series of the Note because i just had to have LTE speeds and I must say I miss having the AOSP based ROMs that the N7000 had and was wondering if we'll ever see this for our i717 Notes?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Build it.
pretty sure cyanogenmod is working on CM9 for the note...
Most likely as soon as Samsung releases ICS source code which likely wont be released probably until ICS becomes official.
Its possible the CM team is building based off code from the N7k for the i717 but the phones are different from each other.
There are tons of threads with this very same question that have been started in this thread, I have explained in great detail (as have others) that explain what the problem(s) are, Id suggest starting there.

No, Don't flash anything from i727, the hardware is different. I'd recommend Task650 & Ktoonsez 7/3/12, great ICS ROM based on aokp milestone 6. Also this is ported development, if you have questions ask them in Q&A.

Wrong forum, but try Rootbox in this thread I highly recommend it. I have tried many JB ROMs here.

Read and follow instructions on how to flash. I also recommend watching the "noob" video to learn the rules of xda to avoid breaking them.
Closing this down.. the two phones are completely incompatible.. no point in doing anything with thread.
OP, do more research before you flash anything please...

Gooapple Rom for i9100?

Hey
I have been searching the Internet if there is a Gooapple Rom (iOS clone based on Android) for the galaxy s2 but I couldn't find one.
Do you know if this exists? If yes can you post the link? If not, maybe someone experienced in porting might pick this up? The original Roms can be found on http://rom.gooapple.com/
In case you are gonna flame me why I'd like to see an iOS Rom - why not? Android is about the freedom of choice and the more choise the better

Should I get an s2 (Fast reply thanks)

I currently have a Samsung google Nexus s running the latest stock android 4.1.2 should I swap it for a Galaxy s2 today ???

yes
Go for the I9100G the TI OMAP S2, if you want fully working AOSP with project butter the International due to Exynos processor lack of sources may not be supported after 4.1.1
