Just go to rommanager site to see the list of compatible devices
Or install rom manager in your device and try for yourself
There is no easiest thing or like that
Search if there is any cwm.zip for your device if available flash that
If not you have to wait until someone build a cwm for you or build yourself

There is another way to flash cwm and I think that it is the fastest way
First download Odin and flash cwm through it.

unable to change recovery

hi,
I have a orange samsung galaxy s2. I upgraded the ROM to 2.3.6 and rooted it via Odin.
I want to install a custom rom in the device but the problem is
the recovery menu is still the stock one. I cant seem to change the recovery. I tried upgrading it via ROM Manager but no gain.
Please Help
rom manager can't flash cwm to your phone, did you flash CF-root with odin? if you didn't then flash it and you should have cwm

Hi,
Thanks for the unbelievably fast reply. Yes i did add CF-Root-SGS2_XW_OXA_KK5-v5.0-CWM5 as a PDA option in Odin. I followed this guide http://androidadvices.com/root-samsung-galaxy-s2-gt-i9100-xwkk5-gingerbread-236-firmware/
should i do it again?

Hi,
Problem solved. I flashed the CF-root and tried the 3 button combo to go into the recovery but no gain.
What made it work was that i started the CWM app and went into the recovery from there. That made it work for the 3 button combo as well.

[Q] What rom to use?

My phone is rooted now and few friends here gave me suggestions of siyah and some...i want to know if I can directly flash the rom from stock recovery mode..i downloaded ROM manager, but it only has clockwork mode and cyanogen i guess.. can i do that using siya?
You need CWRecovery on your phone (sounds like you used a root method that didn't involve using a kernel with CWM if you only have stock recovery). Best way to get it is to flash a kernel that has it built in - Siyah, Dorimanx, etc, etc. There's a number of them; search the development sections of the board. Once you've got CWM on, you'll be able to flash any rom you want.

Siyah is a kernel, not a ROM. And no, you cannot flash a custom ROM from stock recovery. Search for rachmat3's rooting method and use that. Or flash the tar version of siyah or dorimanx via Odin.
ROM manager seems to have some issues with the S2. try to avoid using it as far as possible.
See which ROM you want to use. If it has the new Mali drivers use dorimanx 7.4 else use siyah 4.1.5

Siyah is a kernel developed by gokhanmoral. ROM on the other hand is also called firmware, you can flash them both in clockworkmod recovery, but cannot be done in stock recovery.
As for ROM manager, I've seen people brick their phone using it, so just stick to flashing clockworkmod recovery.

Don't use rom manager, unless you want an expensive brick.
And Rootbox with dorimax is a good combination you can check out

If you are using siyah kernel you can tweak the GPU steps and overclock your CPU using an app called ExTweaks. But note you are not going to get any serious performance boost, your machine tends to be what you have.

Stock rom

Hi I've flashed my s2 with sentinel rom (basically cyanogenmod) so it's like a nexus 4 and I would quite like to flash a stock rom but not like the s2 rom like is there a way to flash an s3/s4 stock rom to my phone? :thumbup:
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
No. Pls don't flash a rom that's not made for your phone as you will probably brick it. Look in Android development for what you want
I double dare you to try it.
Is there a way that I can go back to my original stock rom test it out and if I don't like it go back to my flashed rom?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
Hi,
Make a nandroid backup from you current rom und flash an other rom. If its not fit you can restore your backup
Maybe you have to flash the kernel that you used to make the backup before you restoring.
Basically I want jelly bean but the stock version. Currently I'm using a rom that is jelly beans but is like a nexus 4 but I want the Samsung features. Thanks

Hi,
i know, you wrote on OP sentinal rom. Just make a backup from your current rom in the recovery. And then you go to the download modus and flash a stock rom via odin. If you dont like it, flash a recovery and restore your backup.
Easy
Ok! Where can I get the stock rom from and can it be jelly bean? I know that when you buy the new s2s they have 4.1.2 installed! And how to you flash a recovery? Everything else I know.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
Okay... do you flash the sentinel rom oder someone else? If you did it than you have to know what the recovery is. It the menue that comes up when you hold VolUp+Home+Power and boot. There ist an option "Backup and restore".
Here http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ you can get the official stock roms, just search for I9100. To download you have to register, its free
Andi
Get your stock rom from samfirmware. Just scroll down and download the required Android version. You can get temporary recovery from recovery tools in play store or if you want permanent recovery you gotta flash a custom kernel.
