By the way, the latest Siyah recovery is SDS safe as well

I think it's very dangerous for you to flash a custom rom, if you didn't get his sarcasm.
To answer your question: why do you think developers create instructions on their first page of the rom-thread? It's not there just to be ignored.

i would suggest u to flash the latest 'Philz' kernel from the stock recovery of LS8, it will root and install the latest custom recovery on ur phone, which u can use to flash the latest Neatrom lite v4.1 zip file

Sir, AFAIK Siyah will not boot neat rom lite v4.1 when installed from its Recovery as people have already faced that issue for now
it can be flashed later (after installing neat rom lite v4.1)

Philz flashing? [Help?]

So i have been thinking about to flash a new rom on my s2. Currently i am running stock jb (xwlsd). And i have philz kernel and the philz stock recovery!

You need to change kernel. Flash Siyah kernel via ODIN (PDA section) then you will have new recovery that will flash rom you want.
I flashed Rootbox asop based from philz recovery just do a full wipe
Then flash .

Installation aborted?

im on zero bug rom with speedmod kernel, as i wanna flash to cm10,1 nightly or carbon rom, it just says installation aborted. what does this mean? do i have to go back to ics and flash a safe kernel and flash the rom? i did a full wipe too..
Maybe try to redownload the zip-file again. Could be a corrupted file.

You can flash PhilZ-kernel with built-in CWM recovery. Have a look at PhilZ-kernel thread to find the appropriate kernel for you.

from where can I get it?
does it require PC and odin or not?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
In http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1877270 you can find your appropriate kernel, but you need to choose the right one, because the latest kernels are for JellyBean only.
No, you don't need Odin/heimdall and you don't' need a PC even if it's better to have one at hand when it comes to issues.
One hint: read and try to understand everything before flashing. If you are unsure, ask, otherwise there is a chance to brick the device, especially with 4.0.4 stock (-> brick bug)

okay thanks dude, but is there a safe one even if with a PC, I'm used to rooting and flashing recovery mods and kernels using PC and odin for my s3 and it is very safe and no chance of bricking the phone, so is there a similar way for s2 ?

just download the 'Siyah kernel v 5.0.1' (.tar file for flash with Pc odin) from the link below and flash the same on ur phone using PC odin, it will root ur phone and install a working, brick free cwm recovery, which u can use to flash any custom rom/kernel of ur choice
Siyah Kernel v5.0.1

thanks a lot bro, will give it a try today
btw im going to flash the latest jellybam on i9100 so will siyah have any problem regarding the ROM ? i mean will there be any lag or something ?
CWM matters, not the kernel you're actually on.
Of course if you're on 4.0.4's kernel you can't wipe.
Sent from...this is not even my S2
The Siyah kernel will be overwritten during the jellybam flash anyway......so as mentioned. ...the kernel doesn't matter/won't cause compatibility issues
Sent from my rooted, de bloated, stock JB powered S2 via PhilZ kernel and XDA developers app
ok thanks a lot dudes that really helped a lot
