Hi everyone,
I have been a happy user of HTC Desire for quite some time, and I had 10 different ROMs on it over time. Now I finally got some extra cash and got SGS2.
For my previous device, I knew where to go and what to look for, but now with SGS2 I'm kinda lost. If anyone could point me out to the following tutorials, I'd be gratefull:
1. How to root
2. How to change recovery?
3. How to install custom ROM
Thanks!
Use "SEARCH" button
Q& Section please .
Custom rom follow roms directions .
Root read the root posts

thanks!
So far I rooted and installed CWM Recovery
I'm looking for a NON-AOSP ROM, or lets say, stock ROM with root, CWMR, tweaks and options (for instance, I need 3G toggle in status bar)
Any suggestions?
Light'ning ROM!
So easy to install and it comes rooted of course. Very much stock, with tweaks.

Hey Guys,
I have a Bell Galaxy note I7I7M with T-Mobile Modem Using on Mobilicity Network In Canada. At present, I am using Padawan V8 4.0.4 rom. Works perfectly fine but would like to try some other Custom Jelly Bean Roms. My previous attempts to flash went in vain with issues such as not able to pick up signal (on SlimBean) and not able to Call and recieve phone calls even with signals ( on Jedi Rom). I guess, probably will be a radio issue. Some one please guide me how to Flash and update to custom Jelly bean Roms.
Thanks a lot.
Cheers

Did not work?
Right here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2147095
I'm on 4.2.2 and had to change kernel in order to have call audio. Flappjaxxx kernel is another one you could try, but it didn't work well for me.
I'm using Feb 29 build of the kernel which in the forum for my current ROM had the most feedback.
Basically just download the kernel, put it on root of sd card and boot into recovery. Wipe cache and then install zip from sd and choose kernel. When done reboot. Always make a backup just in case
This boot will take longer than usual. Don't worry. When booted, it will say something like "upgrading android" or something
After that, enjoy.
Someone please correct me if I am wrong at any point! I am fairly certain that ^ those steps are correct, but just in case
And lastly, I hope this doesn't become a "best kernel thread" try a few out if you aren't sure and see which one works best for you. I just recommend 4aces because it worked for me
Carry on all

Go download team win recovery project 2.4.4 I believe it is. The status 7 error is a out of date recovery. You can flash it via Odin or through your current recovery

Flash kernel after ROM. Most ROMs come with a kernel in the zip, so it would overwrite any that you install. I got status 7 and decided to try a different ROM because I was too lazy to update recovery

Ok. I have a problem here. phone reboots when i touch turn on usb connection, any idea? want to flash chris kernel
That is very common for JB ROMs actually. Had that on my old phone as well... Trying to remember what I did Try a different kernel and see if that works any. I don't think it happens to me anymore but it did before.
I'm gonna spend some time searching and see what that yields. I know you can boot into recovery and enable USB transfer that way. It's supposed to be faster because it bypasses a few firmware components. But either way, that is a nuisance.
Okay, try going Settings->Storage->(Menu soft key)->USB options
From here you should be able to enable mass storage, or if that reboots on you like before, try ticking MTP. Maybe try checking developer options and see if USB debugging is enabled or not. Unfortunately I don't know which to have ticked and which ones not
Anyone? Cuz right now all of mine are unchecked (and that doesn't sound right)

I think kitkat cm11 roms use permissive selinux permissions, so not affected. Stock CWM doesn't support selinux. However, maybe on some apps it could help
In any case, for cm-10.2 and 11, it is a good idea to have it enabled

Overclocking varies between phones, some can go up to 1600 others can't. Try raising it in steps and see how it reacts (gets hot, freezes...)

I am releasing this on behalf of @kykint . There is a language barrier he had trouble trying to release this here. I have not personally tried this ROM as I am in the middle of other things:

Where are you seeing that? The title states YP-G70.
Those screenshots look really good. I might try this out as I temporarily have my dad's g70.
Edit: I just flashed it. It has graphical issues on the setup screen when going back and forth between the screens. That's probably the worst thing so far. Just skip through all the steps I guess.
Another bug is on the theme settings. Tap on one of the options (like boot animation). The notification bar will be white until you pull down and release the notification shade. Anyway, I'm not disappointed.
Gapps with Nexus5 Experience ROM
I flashed the Nexus5 Experience ROM, and as stated, it did take awhile to initially boot, and it booted successfully
I tried installing the latest mini-modular GApps, and got insufficient space in system partition. It needs 240848KB, and 222868KB is available. I'll try micro GApps and report back.

I too flashed the Nexus5 ROM, And flashed the minimal GApps with no problems. The first boot DID take around 15-20 minutes so yes, you have to be patient... So far, no issues, SDCard swap confirmed, and I'm playing Simpsons Tapped Out with no lag...
Great job!!!

UPDATE: I sucessfully installed micro GApps and reinstalled all of my apps via Titanium Backup. The "Android is upgrading...Optimizing app xxx of yyy" (yyy = 41 in my case) message is slowly moving along, but taking forever !! Maybe it's so slow because it's very tight on system partition space ??
Is there any logical explanation why usagi111 had enough system partition space to install minimal GApps, but I did not? I wiped everything short of my external SD card.
Just tried daydream ROM and it is stable as heck. I love the theme. Now theirs one ROM left to try and it is nexus5 experience

Try flashing it with cwm and it should root is necessary for continuing. Press yes and you should have root

I did flash it thru cwm and did ask it root before restarting the phone, no superuser and when I install it from the play store, the binaries cant update, tried flashing several update.zip's and SuperSU.zips and still nothing...It's no big deal but sooner or later i'm going to need root access for something...
