soo what are u guys using as in which Firmware...?! - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm using the CyanogenMod latest version Nightly one. and whats the best in ur opinion ..?

The "best" is whatever you find a) works for you, and b) you are most happy with.
The term "best" is subjective, as each person will have a best, for them.

Pretty awesome you managed to get a custom rom on your phone without knowing what you're doing^^ Come on man, read a little bit, because asking if you actually HAVE a kernel is kind of... weird

Anyone wanna spare me sometime and suggest a ROM and Kernal.?

Hey guys. I am kinda overwhelmed by the number of ROMs and kernals around. I saw modems too but dunno what they are. Heres my info:
Baseband:I9100DDKE4
Kernal: 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKF3-CL276555 [email protected] #2
Hope thats alls needed. I wanna try our MIUI. But I saw stuff like bluetooth isnt working there. I dont wanna lose any functionality. Is CyanogenMod my best bet? Are there any other good stable mods I should check out? And whats a good Kernal? Which wont affect battery performance.
Thanks for your time if you reply.

mate no offense but there is a search button at the top of the forum and you could of searched the answer to your question..there are so many threads like yours including one that i opened and asking the same thing..
but anyway...BatistaRom is your best bet.....great rom and a kernel to use with it is siyah kernel...
or check the link i will give you and il be honest you be better off going there to start off with custom roms..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1288850
read throughout the first page and then go to the last page as well of the thread cause they just updated the rom and scripts..so you will enjoy using that rom i know i did since i beta tested it..
and battery life with the right settings you can get 2 days out of it..give it a try your not losing anything..
and regarding cyanogen id wait till they make it more stable

1. Modems are the drivers for the mobile connections if you flash a newer one it can improve your network speed but it really depends were you live etc so it different for every person.
2. If you're a beginner with flashing I wouldn't start with any AOSP ROMs like Cyanogen or MIUI.
3. I would recommend Villain ROM for the beginning. It's clean and basic and it comes with Nimphetamine Kernel. Also the guys there are really nice and like to help if you have some problems.
Hello there OP!
If you want a completely different Android experience, go for the CyanogenMod 7.1 release candidate. Bluetooth and other important stuffs are working, read the thread!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1297557
If you want a very stable ROM with bloatware removed, I recommend you Cognition 1.5.1. The developer only uses official firmware releases, not leaks.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1124396
Though before you do all these you do need to have your phone rooted first!

i know mate i been there so i know how it feels wanting to ask these questions...but you have some ideas from myself and other people as well so do your reading and choose the one you want..to be honest if i was you id flash a few before deciding which one to stay with..each thread of the roms that i have used everyone is friendly and everyone is helpful so you should be fine...anything you ever need hit me a message and i see if i can help ya
Thanks you everyone. I was just being lazy. Chose Lite'ning Rom and SiyahKernal2.0. Both should play well right? Will I need to recong. all apps?
Loads of roms available but I'd recommend a rom based of 2.3.5 improvements are better than earlier releases.
Then you can choose from the various kernels and modems to customise.
Once you get the hang of flashing and such you can try out others like cm7, which itself works pretty good now and offers a complete aosp experience.
Touchwiz roms are polished though and work very well. By going to CM7 and such you will lose some stock functionalities such as the good camera app, better stock email, and other bits and bobs.

i think LeoMar75 Revolution Rom v2.7.1 and SpeedMod t41 kernel is the best choice.
battery friendly and really fast!!
no lag in SPB Shell 3D launcher and other apps. also revolution rom is really customised!
(my english is not good as i come from Hong Kong)
GingerMod 0.6. Based on 2.3.5.
Fast. Using Siyah kernel with it. Amazing battery life, amazing benchmark scores.

Anyway to OP download a custom rom from the development page and then wait till later tonight or tomorrow and download the ICS theme by Vertumus....Looks even better than the original ICS
Given up mate this forum should be renamed One Flew Over etc etc .
Anyway the guy did put a bit more into his question than just what's best rom .

i do not know if it would work on GB but i have heard that there is an app on the market regarding faceunlock..Like i said above..No need to flash cm9 or any other ics roms at the moment..not stable enough...well for me that is..download a rom then wait till tonight to flash the Vertumus theme ICS style...Much better than proper ics if you ask me..Anyway go into market and then search faceunlock and take it from there buddy

[Q] Will stock android speed phone up?

Hi. I'm a bit new to this, and was wondering if a way to improve my ace performance, would a custom stock android based ROM improve the phone? As at the moment it is laggy and has loads of bloatware taking up the internal memory.
So will doing this make the phone less laggy and improve performance?
Cheers!
Yes it will increase the performance but depends on the ROM you're using.
After flashing a custom rom, you can apply additional tweaks to it. Which hence increase performance, smoothness, network speed etc ; depending on the tweaks.
Also with more performance, there is a price to pay! You will be facing alot of battery drianage. But that depends again on the tweaks you applied.
Most Custom Rom have inbuilt tweaks with them. That makes them special and are good.
To be honest, i think stock rom is the best except for the look though.

SGS3 v5 is not JB. It's Gingerbread
And it's a little bit immoral to compare, suggest or show preference towards certain ROMs
Not only that, but it's also against rules
also my first rom was mind cr 2.9 looks great and works great contacs works if you flash their version i u use your version mine was m conttcs wold not appear they ha vea rom that flashing that with odin then mind cr will read contacs.

I like stock custom roms the most. Alliance, biftor rom. I also like pacman, rootbox custom. For me biftor v11 at the min. Think I will stick with this for a while. And with apollo kernel as is a great kernel for battery life.
