[Q] most stable ROM for the Samsung S2 - GT-I9100 ? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello !
what is the most stable ROM for the Samsung Galaxy S2, in your opinion?
I have seen the most famous ones are: Cyanogenmod 11, Omnirom, NeatRom, SlimSaber..
I am very confused!
I have already tried CM11 but found it unstable.

Wait, are you asking me or the OP? In case you were talking to me, I've tried that combination before but I always find myself switching back to dorimanx kernel everytime. Don't get me wrong, it's still a great kernel but I still feel that on my side, dorimanx has been the most stable for me.

Thanks for your replies!
you, who are reading now:
what's the most stable ROM, in your opinion?

SlimSaber. I didn`t even bother to change the default Kernel, although I have used DorimanX quite a lot in the past.

Thanks guys !
which of these 2 forum threads should I consider?

[ROM][4.3.1][09/28] SlimSaber Reborn - i9100 [SlimBean Unofficial Builds]

The top one is the one you want. Installing kernel is just like flashing a normal zip file. No wipe is required and can be flashed with custom recovery. Just make sure to flash the right one. Here is the version you want: http://dorimanx.cybernetus.com/10/Kernel_Dorimanx-V10.44v008-[08-39]-[27-12]-JB-SGII-PWR-CORE.zip

Siyah kernel, Dorimanx kernel (only 5.62 is good), Dream kernel DTMF problem

There is a bug with these kernels with DTMF when calling to banks and ect... (AVR problem)
Example: When i press 9 digits them receive 10 or 11 or 12 digits
It's annoying a lot. I can not self identify in the AVR systems
Now using Dorimanx kernel 5.62 it's OK but... there is a bug... Only working good with the version of Dorimanx
-Newer version of Dorimanx kernel above 5.62 them have the bug
-All version of Siyah kernel with the bug
-And Dream kernel tested several latest versions had this bug
I'm on AOKP GT-I9100 Resurrection Remix v2.6.1
Sure CM9 have this bug is 100%
Don't know about AOSP
Any suggestions???

If you care about this thing do much, then go back to stock based Rom and flash Speedmod kernel.
If you don't care then live with it

[Q] Bootloop with perseus kernel [SOLVED]

Hi guys,
I am newbie, my S3 i9300 is using temasek 10.1 rom and his amazing lastest kernel. About batterylife saving, I am trying to find out the ASV version of my S3 to get right value for stweak app by flashing perseus kernel together with flashing unchecksetonboot.zip as manual but I faced the bootloop, my S3 could not started. I have tried the ways (only flash perseus kernel (36.3) or flash perseus kernel together with flashing unchecksetonboot.zip) but it was not booted. I do not know how to solve this.
I could not post my question in Temasek's thread because i am newbie. Is there someone else like me and any help for me, please!
I hope Temasek can see my question.
Thanks a lot!

TL;DR: before flashing aside from known issues in the second post.
This isn't an AOSP kernel. I won't work with CM and AOSP derivatives.
DOESN'T WORK ON SAMSUNG JELLYBEAN 4.2.1 ROMS.

It is my BAD.
I have read this but till do not know why, I do know that temasek's rom is an CM derivative. Perseus kernel is not AOSP kernel. So could you guys teach me what ROM (AOKP rom but not CM) I have to flash to be compatible with perseus kernel? i am confused
Sorry for my BAD.

All Samsung (or Sammy) derivatives that means all Rom with XX... in its name, MC3, etc. And 4.1.x only. See thread's titles it's written there.

You open my mind! I am too stupid to think that Sammy ROM derivatives is AOSP, My BAD.
Even I do not really understand about AOSP ROM because of this words " The name is often co-opted for custom ROMs that are very close to the original AOSP, from What's the difference between an AOSP ROM and a stock ROM?"
But as you teach me, I will chose a Sammy ROM derivatives without the AOSP note in ROM.
Iam downloading a [ROM][MC3][JKAY] Purelook HD v5.0 I SGS 4 + Xperia Z ROM. Hope it works.
I will try to improve my self step by step.
Thank you! :highfive:

There are 2 main kind of roms - based on samsung sources and based on aosp sources (cyanogenmod). They're not compatible with each other, that means kernels, mods, themes etc.
Most AOSP Roms have 4.2.2 Android while Sammy have 4.1.2.

CWM from Dorimanx didn't worked for me too, flash CWM from http://mirror21.downloadandroidrom.com/file/GalaxyS2/recovery/CWM-KitKatCompatible-i9100.zip and after that flash new Slim (BTW there is 25/12 version right now).
I tried to install Apolo beta2 (OMNI version) but I can't change any settings so I switched back to GustavoS
EDIT #1
After flashing latest SlimSaber I'm using SlimKernel (included) - STweaks don't work, but Trickster Mod have enought options for me at the moment

If you read the thread of the dorimanx kernel then you would know that you can't install a kitkat rom from the dorimanx recovery. Therefore you need to flash a kitkat compatible recovery before you want to flash a kitkat rom.
I don't want to be a ****, but if you don't know what you're doing you need to ask yourself if you want this. If you do something wrong, you can brick your phone.
thank you for help, i really appreciate it

Best I9100 rom + kernel (stable)

There is no 'best' rom or best 'kernel'. Every rom and kernel are good in their own ways. However, I can recommend using slimsaber rom by Fusionjack and dorimanx kernel 10.44 v008 by cybernetus. You can try cm11 saber mod too as these combination have great battery life (and stability and features too).
I'm currently running Slimkat, latest official build alongside with Apolo Kernel and I have no issues so far.
