I've been playing a bit with my galaxy S2 lately and tried on it few different roms and kernels.
I finally found the right one for me that is the Sapir Rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1899757
The only thing i can't get to work is the HDMI out through the MHL adapter. The screen appears on the tv but it freezes after a second.
Am i the only one having this problem? Is there a setting somewhere to make it work?
I'm on Siyah kernel S2 version 5.0b2 and 10-26 sapir Rom
I haven't posted in the official thread because I'm new and I can't XD

Hey guys, I have managed to setup MIUI v4 on my SGS2 with success and its brilliant.
I have two questions, first I feel the ROM is a bit sluggish at times, is it a kernel related? cuz it says my base band is LPQ and the software is based on LP7 ?!
I tried flashing different kernel LP7~LP3 and didn't work out, and got boot loop.
Second, is there anyway to enable Screen tone in video layer like in Samsung stock ROM? thx
Hi my name is chofny and i have tried many custom roms....
I cant find anny rom that support the mhl cable...
If some one can use the mhl cable can you plz tell witch rom you have and make a vid how you connect the cable 2 tv and how evrything should be done... maby i do something wrong....
thanks in advance
Chofny
As far I know stock roms only support it. But custom roms based on stock should work also
Official MIUI 4 roms and samsung roms support it
On CM9/AOSP/AOKP rom it doesn't work properly, sometimes video output without audio and sometimes only audio output...
The UI output doesn't work
EDIT: I don't really know if this will solve MHL on cm9 but here here is the commit from codeworkx about HDMI some hours ago

I updated to ics since the very first leaked offical version and have no time till now. I find the version lagging and also the scrolling bug so now i have some time I wanted to reinstall a new ROM.
Which ICS ROM supported TV output? Seen most of the ROM description and none stated whether it works for tv output or not My internet is slow and just waiting for it to download can take 2hrs for one ROM.
I dont really understand what it mean by original android development and android development but I assume one is from a clean ASOP while another one is from stock rom. So i download one from each but turned out both tv output doesnt work. When I plug it into the tv the screen appear but the screen on the tv "hangs" there even when I am doing on my phone.
This is the two I tried:
[Rom][AOKP-B40](AROMA+OTA)[01/07]Resurrection Remix ics v2.5.2[4.0.4]
[ROM][4.0.4] PARANOIDANDROID v1.5a [CM9HYBRID][25/06/2012]
Still downloading
[ROM][LPF]FOXHOUND Revolver Ocelot|ICS|OTA|Performance|AROMA|31 May and it's still 1hr plus more to completed.
Can anyone kindly tell me whether this rom supported TV output?
Been searching for rom and the comments of each rom for around 3hrs plus le.
Hope some one can reply asap, thanks for your reply

I'm struggling to find the "I'm with stoopid" smiley, can you help?
CM9 does not currently support TV-out on the I9100, the one thing the OP specifically asked for. At worst you'll get a static image/no output, at best you'll get something when playing back videos only.
Now i know. Sorry.
Only stock Samsung has working tv output but all stock roms should work. If the rom is CyanogenMod or AOKP or AOSP or MIUI it will not work.

miui v4 ROM is fully working...TV out work (HDMI).im using it on my sgs2
Hi everyone
My issue is somehow strange, I performed a clean install (full wipe, etc..) with Dorimanx Kernel 7.43 of Neat ROM 4.0 (XXLSJ) as primary ROM
When I install secondary ROM, Neat ROM boot loops and get stuck on the first Samsung bootanimation (where the logo is being drawn again and again)
I fixed permissions for secondary ROM, but still no boot, neither primary, nor secondary
I thought that ROMs are independent but seems like I'm wrong
Now I'm hesitating to retest the same with 7.44 kernel and 4.1 ROM (XWLS8)
What Have I messed ?
PS:
I reflashed my ROM and my phone is working fine, this thread is not about solving bootloop (with hundreds of threads dedicated here), it's about dual booting
Dorimanx doesn't support dual boot with any Samsung jelly bean roms currently
So it's kernel related, I did not notice this detail when flying over the changelog or the infinite number of replies :silly:
Thank you for the quick answer...
Try this Siyah MCM Kernel ver 3.0.60
http://sourceforge.net/projects/cm10i9100vsync/files/kernel/
I believe it is smoother than the Dorimanx Kernel and it supports dualboot.
Tha'ts the Kernels XDA thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1891222
Not exactly sure what Conny has posted, but just incase you didn't know dual boot can't work with any siyah or dorimanx kernel till the dev fixes it, and only siyah 6 beta 1 or above and dorimanx v3.37 or above work with samsung jelly bean

1Chef is right, I thought Neatrom published a 4.2.1 release
Considering neatrom is based on stock Samsung and not aosp then it can't have released 4.2.1
Got another bootloop while trying (hopfully) the new setup (7.44 + 4.1.2 XWLS8), nothing happened
I think that siyah will give the same result as Dorimanx is forked from, maybe with latest stable future release of Siyah, it could be fixed.
Now, I got tired from re-re-re-re-reflashing my phone :silly:
I'd better wait
Newbie Takes The Plunge to Custom Rom and Kernel: Any Suggestions?
I'm still fairly a newbie, but have rooted two phones so far, thanks to the great information, tutorials, guides, resources, and videos posted here on XDA. I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-I9100 and my daughter's Samsung Epic 4G.
I rooted my I9100 successfully a few months ago, but have never flashed a rom. I'm going to try out Neat Rom Lite tonight. I've finally gotten up the nerve!
QUESTION: Does anyone have any suggestion of which kernel I should flash along with it? I need better battery life. I would love to be able to watch videos and use the phone regularly and make it through the whole day without charging. Is this possible? Can a kernel and Neat Rom Lite do this for me?
Also, I rooted the Samsung Epic 4G yesterday. Any suggestions on what rom and kernel to put on it and how would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks a bunch for any assistance and comments.
Hi,
I bought a MHL cable for galaxy S2.
When I plug it into the phone and into the HDMI input on tv I cant see my phone at all only black screen.
Ofcourse Ive connected the usb to the tv to give it power and I also tried to conncet it to an Iphone charger still nothing..
Ive checked that the Hdmi on tv is the right channel.
Last thing:
I have ICEBULLET V4+ ROM if it helps.
What can I do?
Thanks!

The MHL cable only works with Samsung stock roms or custom roms based on stock.
Mine is working fine with stock XWLSD & Apolo kernel.

can you give me a link to that rom and kernal please?
The kernel I use:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/development-derivatives/kernel-t2291756
I am using Apolo_4.13_Regular-TWRP.
For the rom I suggest you find out what rom is latest official rom for your country/phone (in my country XWLSD is latest official rom).
If you want custom rom then search in the I9100 development threads for stock based custom rom and verify it has MHL support.
