ROM advice - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have tried out several roms, but I cannot find a rom I am completely happy with. I am afraid there is no answer to my question, but I ask anyway. Can you suggest a ROM for me that includes:
1. S3 ripple lock
2. S3 TouchWiz
and is fast, stable and have good batterylife?

[Q](solved)Help with CWM and updating to CM7 SG2 i9100

Hi just a couple of questions, i have had a look for the answer but no luck so far.
My phone details - Samsung Galaxy S II i9100
Kernel - Chainfire kernel XXKI4 with CWM and Power user already installed
Firmware 2.3.4
1. I want to flash CM7 to my phone but i want to keep all my settings, apps and data. So when i have CM7 installed i can just apply all my data, apps, settings etc. Is this possible
2.Can i use CWM to to install the rom or do i have to use rom manager, are their any noob tuturials that i can read about
3. Is their any good alternatives to CM7 that i could look it first
Thanks
Questions 1 and 2 are covered in the CM7 Q&A thread. Question 3 is impossible to answer.
Thanks for the quick responce

Help with Flashed ROM [Wanamlite v10.6]

Hi to all,
Recently rooted my stock SGS2 i9000, and flashed it with the above rom.
Couple of noob questions though.
How to access the rom's settings?
ie, i dont want the battery percentage icon showing?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thxs.
Hi, that rom is based on the stock samsung firmware, it doesn't really have many tweakable options like that, go with a AOKP rom if you want a load of options to tweak and play with.

Thxs for the quick reply.
Do you have any favourite roms that would suit my needs (tweakable).

If you have the i9000 instead of the i9100, best to check out their section on xda. Not a good idea to flash i9100 roms on the i9000.

Basic Customisation Questions

Hello to I9100 section,
first of all i'm not complete new in customise android smartphons, but in a few days i get my first i9100 and the section is really big and confusing so i want to ask some questions.
My previous smartphones were: i9003 and i9070.
At the i9100 i want to use a stock rom as far as possible, but i want to customise some things.
The things i want to change are:
- rooting with cwm
- 14 toggle mod
- extended power menu
- percentage battery
- custom boot animation
- crt mod
- maybe if possible with stock rom a battery bar
- some tweaks like center clock and other status bar notifications.
At my search in the section i found a lot of stuff (mostly from resurrection remix), my question:
Can i use this mods on a stock rooted sansung rom with 4.1.2?
I think things like percentage battery can be done by me using uot but most of the mods i have to install,
i'm a little but unsure if the work on "stock" rotted samsung rom.
Maybe someone can giv me some tips?
I dont want to use a custom rom again cause my experiences with them weren't always good unfortunatly :/

I agree. I understand your (OP) point about custom roms that 'don't always work', but if you install a rom based on official Samsung roms, it's almost the same as stock, but with some modifications. However, I would go for Neatrom, as its development is more active than Wanamlite, but that's up to yourself.

If you want stock ICS use Alliance Rom V4.1 or if you want stock JB use Neatrom lite V4
Neatromlite + http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1999623
Almost all mods you mentioned are in AOI-X-TremeXD
Or may be you can have all these mods and more mods here: ALL IN ONE MOD by ICS_XD.:good:

wrong forum. this is i9300. t999 is here
but in fact:
1) no, samsung gimmicks are based on samsung framework and won't work on aosp based roms, either you find alternatives or someone who has ported it (what is quite unlikely)
2)no, see 1
3) ask in the correct forum
4) best fastest kernel questions violate the rules. test for yourself and make your own opinion

1. Yes, look at the screenshots in the dev thread
2. If it isn't smooth enough for you, install a custom kernel like Boeffla and try different governors to find the best suited for your expected smoothness/battery saving expectations. Try also not to have to much apps running at the same time, try Greenify it's great.
3. All popular kernels are great, and the settings you choose can change a lot the performance and battery saving of your phone.
Thank you for your response
1. Yes i know, that's the question how to do it? Because I've got 4x5 i my rom.
2. Can i flash it without rom, just kernel? (+ wipe dalvic?)
I've instelled UPSM manager, but i don't see any changes? Greenify is better and is it the same app?
3. I should instal this one "Kernel version 7.x is only for ported Samsung based Kitkat 4.4.4 roms (e.g. back-to-n00t)"

1. I don't know then. Why don't you try this rom if you think you'll like it?
2. You could, but first you need root and a custom recovery (if not already done). Greenify put apps running in background in hibernation, read its description.
3. If you read the OP, there are versions for 4.1, 4.3, 4.4.2 and 4.4.4
1. I've already installed this rom "Blekota Note 4 lite" , and as you see there is 5x5 on ss. But in my phone I've got 4x5.
And now I'm interested in how to set 5x5?
2. Already done all of stuff root + custom. I've already installed in my phone this ROM
The question is that is it possible without flashing all (rom + kernel), just kernel?
Greenify put apps running in background in hibernation, read its description.

Ok, so i try this one.
3. I've read all this stuff and faq, thx
BTW: It's not my first custom rom (and as you can see I do not know everything), but I had no need to register on this site beacuse site is free. And now I need to get 10 posts to write in direct topic
So I ask about that here.
1. Still don't know how?
For others,
2. Yes, you can flash kernel but restriction is to have the same Rom (4.4.4 -> 4.4.4) It concerns Boeffla Kernel
3. I think Boeffla Kernel is better than stock or arter kernel.

The 10 post rule applies only for development threads. Each ROM has its development thread and its Q&A thread. So you can ask questions about a ROM in its Q&A thread even if you don't have 10 posts yet.
If you want advices on how to write 10 posts without spamming, read this and that.
