I just bought one of these used off craigslist and it had SHOstock2 on it ... I'm used to Cyanogen and would like to switch over to that ... Can I install it directly over SHOstock2 or do I have to do anything special first?
Please advise ... I'd really like to get my new (used) phone up and running ....

Thanks for responding! Can you tell me which rom you installed first?
I had no problems going from SHOStock to Taks's latest AOKP Jellybean.
I have a nandroid of CM10 and my current Ss2 v5 and have no problems switching. Full wipe before installing CM10 and you should be good. Recommend running the 4.1.4 Siyah on CM10, makes for easier bu and restore in CWM.

You can go with SHOStock2 custom ROM blindly. I have used many custom kernals and finally satisfied with SHOStock2 ROM for the daily drivers. All you need to root your phone first, then flash this ROM, thats all. No need to root your phone again. Hope you gotcha now
Some people go to the thread of the rom they want to flash and read the instructions there so they understand what they should do before flashing that rom, and also what is unique to that rom, so as to get a feel for whether they want to flash it or not. But I suppose instead of reading and searching u could just start a new thread and have us do yer leg work for you.

The last time I posted a question like that in the Cyanogen forums for my old Galaxy S ... I never got a response back. At xda the posters here are mostly very helpful and friendly.

@everyone else:
Thanks for all the responses! I really appreciate it. Sounds like I can just flash directly, which I will do.

Just wanted to say for anyone else who might be wondering that going from SHOstock to Cyanogen was a piece of cake. Quick, no problems at all.
Sad thing is ... SHOstock actually felt a lot more responsive. Still have to strip some bloat from Cyanogen but I might just restore back to SHOstock ...

Was just wondering if anyone knows any other good sites and if you've found/are running anything that you have got from another site.
Thanks.
Can get something from the i9100 forum and hellraise it. I'm running one from there that I just installed.
Thanks, but I was looking for roms that aren't from XDA.
RootzWiki, though its not very active
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using Tapatalk
Rootzwiki is somewhat active on older phones but on newer ones its not. You can also try the theunlockr.com but i believe most of the roms come from xda.
Thanks for the replies guys.
Google is your friend.
Although, I think I would refrain from trying any, unless there were a large base of people who are not having issues.
Pay particular attention to the model numbers being used etc.
Of course, if bricking your phone is of no monetary concern, then by all means, go for it!
My 2 cents....
Thanks, but unfortunately google hasn't really turned up much.
Just curiosity, why don't you like ROMs from XDA?

Hey guys! I've lurked around here for a while. I bought a Samsung Galaxy S II for ATT a few months ago after being a longtime iPhone user. Therefore, I'm fairly new to the whole Android tweaking process. I want to install an ICS ROM onto my phone, particularly CM9. I've read the stickies, and am really trying to understand, but at the same time, do not wish to brick my phone. So could someone tell me if this is correct? Or where I'm wrong? Based on what I've read here, to install ICS, I need to...
1. Root my phone as outlined in the thread for that. (The one about not activating the yellow triangle. Since I'm on 2.3.6, I'll need to use "Odin3 One-Click Downloader".)
2. Backup my apps and texts and crap using Titanium Backup to my SD card.
3. Install the proper kernel (where do I find this?) using Mobile Odin.
4. Make sure CWM is active, backup NAND (I assume this is an option?) and flash CM9.
5. Flash Google Apps.
6. Restore my Ti backup.
Thanks guys for the help! And sorry if I'm being stupid/completely misunderstanding.
Read, useless thread is useless

Read, read and read some more. Do a search for Hellraiser as there are no true ICS ROMs for this phone yet, only i900 ports.
If you need to ask questions like this, you are not ready for ICS and ICS is not ready for you.
Since I9100 kernel source code has only been out for a week and we had a bunch of I777-specific **** to fix - while lots of progress has been made things are not quite working yet.
man some people are rude in here....
And others are lazy. Welcome to XDA.
There are a lot of different roms. Usually they rewrite the kernel within the install of the rom. But basically you have the right idea...

Facts are facts, loser. There is not yet a fully-functioning official ICS ROM released for the i777, so any talk of one is premature. The guy admits in the title of this thread that he is a noob and doesn't quite understand. These are exactly the people who should not be flashing ANYTHING, let alone a ROM that is not ready for primetime. But keep on encouraging him and others so that the forum gets filled with people needing help to fix what they messed up. I'm sure you'll be rewarded with tons of adulation for your efforts. Troll indeed.
I recently rooted for the first time and I'm looking to find a ROM that isn't too much of an off-chute from the stock ROM but is also decent at conversing my battery life. I was thinking GB since ICS has that severe bug on the galaxy s2 1777

Please do yourself a favor and do some research before you even think about doing what you are thinking about doing.
Once you start reading and ask relevant questions, people will answer you better. Even if you haven't tried it yet, and you ask questions that occur only after having read about it, people will start pointing you in the right direction.

KH7 and KK6 are basically the same and run fine everywhere except the Loop and O'Hare, where the data doesn't work at all.
I recently tried out LC5 by accident and it turns out that works great in O'Hare and the Loop, but is very spotty everywhere else. I should probably go through the others but that would require a free weekday in the Loop.
I have task' aokp and run flawless... Never have a single issue..

What ICS bug do you refer to?
If it's stock-like GB you're looking for, I've heard great things about Unnamed and UnOriginal.
OP, these threads are highly discouraged in this forum. I encourage those who think the OP does not deserve such flaming, please read more, you'll see that if you did, vs. threads or "which is best" threads are not allowed.
Btw, the person who posted the kernel tests thread, #1, that thread is I9100 and our I777s are different, #2, each person's I777 is different and reacts to different kernels differently, so that thread is practically useless to us.

Just stick with your stock rom and run some 3rd party programs like Juice defender and SetCPU

But what about a "Divine" intervention?
Sorry OP, but your best bet is to do all the research you can before doing anything with any custom roms.
I've noticed my note being a little laggy on the current rom that I am on and was wanting to flash the dagkernal to overclock a little bit and try to reduce the lag. Unfortunately the rom I am currently using is ics based and from my understanding incompatible with dagkernal. I came across the kingkang rom and would really like to flash but don't want to end up in the same situation I am in now. Does anyone know if it is compatible with dagkernal? Thank you much in advanced.
P.s. sorryz for noobzz questionz.
You answered your own question
And if you can't figure it out you shouldn't be flashing anything.
No offense
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using Tapatalk 2
I guess what I should have asked is if kingkang is ics based because i'm not sure. If it is obviously it won't work with the oc kernal. I'm not new to flashing by any means. I'm just new to the note. Really I as just looking for some clarity before I go try it and have to go out of my way to fix something that I ****ed up.

Stop being lazy and do some reading!!!!
Stop cluttering the threads with questions that all it takes is reading in an OP of a rom
Matter of fact go flash it
Flash King Kang than flash the kernel
I take no responsibility but if you wanna find out the hard way with out reading go and flash them both
Noobs....
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using Tapatalk 2
Again...not a noob at flashing by any means. I read both threads thoroughly and at no point in the king kang rom thread does it state if it is gb or ics. I guess you are just to dense to understand the question that I was asking. By the by...i've been on this site alot longer than you I just don't post much because of idiots like you that don't want to give an anwser. You would rather parade around the question and give little to no input instead of just helping a fellow member out. Thanks for nothing. Last time I checked this was for q&a. I searched for my question before I made a thread about it and returned no results. So unless you have some useful input gtfo (which at this point my question was anwsered so it would be monotonous).
If you would a really searched like you said you did you'd know all CM9 AOKP Paranoid roms are ICS... idk what rom that is based of CM9 isn't ....so there is your answer since King Kang is a mixture of all 3
I give you s*** because you clearly didn't do your research if you say you "been flashing longer than me" but couldn't find out one of the most obvious things dealing with ICS ...
You're a noob
Accept it and next time read or use Google or another form of searching because your specific question has been answered numerous amounts of times.

Every rom you will find on the first page of the Android Development thread are ICS roms. There were not too many custom Gingerbread roms for our device and the ones that were made are discontinued cause only a few of us with the Note are waiting til the kernel source is released to upgrad to ICS. Anyway yes its an ICS rom and all the other roms on the first and probably second page are also ICS roms.
Not a Rom Manager Q~ A few days ago i rooted my Samsung Galaxy S2 I777, everything was working fine and I downloaded all the suggested apps. Amongst them was Rom manager, within the app it was mentioned that there was an update for it, I then went ahead with the update which then resulted with my phone not turning on, it was partially bricked. I was still able to go into recovery mode, while there I tried wiping, installing a new rom; everything. Nothing seemed to work. I then searched for a way out of this, I once again placed it in recovery mode and followed a youtube tutorial for its recovery, using odin I place all three files in their proper places; the modem file, ext. The phone sprung back to life to my delight, but unfortunately the recovery pack was made for the Galaxy S II GT-I9100G not the sad AT&T version. So now the light up keys don't work. I have searched everywhere for a recovery pack meant for the S2 I777, but have not succeeded. I need to restore my original backup and with the kernel I am running Kies does not complete the restore.

Can you be so kind as to provide a direct link to that thread?
It clearly is not a Q about Rom manager.
Sincerely, Liss
I await your reply

It took me forever to read that . I use the dark theme for tapatalk and I almost had to switch themes to read it. To the OP- follow the link snipe gave, u'll be fine. Long as your boot loaders aren't messed up beyond repair, and if u only flashed a kernel like the thread title says, you'll be fine.

Not a Rom Manager Q~ A few days ago i rooted my Samsung Galaxy S2 I777, everything was working fine and I downloaded all the suggested apps. Amongst them was Rom manager, within the app it was mentioned that there was an update for it, I then went ahead with the update which then resulted with my phone not turning on, it was partially bricked. I was still able to go into recovery mode, while there I tried wiping, installing a new rom; everything. Nothing seemed to work. I then searched for a way out of this, I once again placed it in recovery mode and followed a youtube tutorial for its recovery, using odin I place all three files in their proper places; the modem file, ext. The phone sprung back to life to my delight, but unfortunately the recovery pack was made for the Galaxy S II GT-I9100G not the sad AT&T version. So now the light up keys don't work. I have searched everywhere for a recovery pack meant for the S2 I777, but have not succeeded. I need to restore my original backup and with the kernel I am running Kies does not complete the restore.
INFO~
Running: Gingerbread. XXKI3
Kernel version: 2.6.35.7-I9100XXKI3-CL577579

Hopefully someone has had a similar problem, and has found a solution if you require any additional information, please let me know.

Thank you for realizing your initial fallacy with rom manager! Can you boot in download mode?

Wow! A stupid mistake posted in a very coherent manner, and zero flaming!
Man I am impressed!
Go xda s2 forum.
Anyway, as long as you can get into download mode you should be fine.

Wow I learned something today. I always used the term fallacy to denote a lie.... But it's actually more of a misconception which leads to a mistake... +1

Anyone else and the post would have been ripped apart. First for rom manager, second for flashing an i9100 kernel, third for not reading stickies
