[Q] litening rom compatibility on xwlp7

I have just rooted my S2 with cf-root v5.4 but i would like to use litening rom.
my stock firmware details are as below
Build number IML74K.XWLP7
Kernel version 3.0.15-I9100XWLP7-CL340913 [email protected]#3
Baseband version I9100DDLPA
I have searched for the appropiate litening rom according to my firmware and found v2.7 suitable for that.
I would like to know if I should use v2.7 or latest version of litening rom ?
Also, does litening rom also gives better battery backup against stock firmware ?

I'd stay on that version if I were you. The currently released 4.0.4 versions from Samsung (leaked LQ5 and released LPM) have issues with possibly bricking your phone if you perform a wipe data/factory reset using the scripts from recovery if you stay on a stock kernel, or one that is based on stock.
From all reports, XWLP7 is very stable, and is fairly new, all things considered.

Development of kernels for gingerbread has stopped. The only kernel i know you can flash now is CF-ROOT kernel but i don't think that will be an upgrade for you

If you really want to try something new i would recommend upgrading to ICS or jelly bean. The custom roms are amazing and you will be very impressed. But it's up to you. You seem pretty happy with what you have now...

I would recommend a ICS or a JB ROM too. Especially the JB Roms are working pretty good. I was impressed myself.
And the Battery is also much better with JB Roms than with ICS. Then you have a variety of new Kernels to try out.
And if you are Newb or noob don't flash 4.0.4 pls

If you dont have Custom recovery and then install one and make a full backup
and then just follow the instructions on MIUI Rom for MMX...I have flashed it myself on my chd so I am confident that those steps are correct.
I don't think you need to update to 4.2.1 before flashing.

first update your firmware to 4.2.1
then install custom rom otherwise you will get problem ....screen flickering
Well, I haven't got the screen flickering issue...but its better to be on the safer side. So do update to 4.2.1:good:
Thank you all, gonna try today.
