Slimsaber 4.4.4 by Fusionjack and DorimanX 10.44 v008 by cybernetus. Stock slimsaber 4.4.4 kernel is good too, but for extra awesomeness (and speed), flash dorimanx too.

@gsstudios can you directly link to kernel and rom please? im useless and getting the right verison i DONT have a P version phone

What P version? You mean S2 plus, like i9100G?
Those are the ROM and Kernel that @gsstudios mentioned:
ROM: http://qc2.androidfilehost.com/dl/T...4717067763/SlimSaber-i9100-4.4.4-20141221.zip
Kernel: http://dorimanx.cybernetus.com/10/Kernel_Dorimanx-V10.44v008-[08-39]-[27-12]-JB-SGII-PWR-CORE.zip
Please note that those work only on i9100 , not i9100G or other S2 versions.

[Q] Dual Booting with Siyah, RR 2.6.1 which version of Siyah? + MHL Cable question

Hi i am running RR 2.6.1 not running siyah kernel currently. However im wanting to flash siyah kernel so I can dual boot running a rom that I can use a MHL cable with.
Couple of questions,
Which version of Siyah Kernel should I flash with RR 2.6.1? Will the latest version be OK?
Which ROM is recommended for using MHL HMDI with my S2? Is stock the best option here?

The latest siyah wouldn't work, I believe. You'd need siyah 4.1.5 or lower to run RR 2.6
As far as MHL is concerned, your best bet would be a stock rom. ICS 4.0.3 is preferable.

Why does this kernel I stuck my phone ?

Probably coz you're using a ROM which has the new Mali drivers. For that use siyah 5.0

I ended up installing wanamlite as my secondary rom. MHL is working perfectly. Cheers.

OC capable Kernel S2 i9100 / 4.2.1

Hey guys im currently using
CM 10.1 for my S2, running 4.2.1
Before everything is the 4.2.1 Jelly bean REAL OS? or its just being "emulated by CM 10.1"
Thanks.
Now is there a Kernel out there for S2 running 4.2.1, capable of OverClocking?
Thanks
Not sure what you mean is cyanogenmod 10.1 emulating android ???. Of course not, it is the real deal 4.2 on the S2 and I think siyah or dorimanx are capable of oc on 10.1

After Restoring Factory,
Wipe Dalvik cache
Then Installed CM 10.1 / 4.2.1 on my S2,
Then flashed Siyah 5.0.1 it crashed my phone...
should i go with this one?

To flash a ROM boot into recovery
1. Wipe data
2. Flash rom
3.Wipe devlik cache and cache
Thanks spiralzz I was wondering why I couldn't find anything about other kernels.
CM10.1 isn't compatible with custom kernels.
However, you may use MCM811's kanged CM10.1 builds along with Siyah. I'll link you to the thread.
Edit: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=31661830
The thread has a link in the OP which will link you to the ROM and Siyah... Don't use Siyah from www.gokhanmoral.com with this ROM.

Thanks for the help.
Im downloading this at the moment...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436854
its based from 4.2.1 CMO 10.1 and has Dorimanx Kernel...
Hopefully supports overclock
You'll need an app like setcpu (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mhuang.overclocking) to over clock your ROM it may be £1.50 but its worth cos you can have profiles so if your phone reaches a certain temp you can turn off the overclock till its cooled down

Best kernel for gaming

Hi all,
I'm on Hellybean 4.2.1 rom for now, but I get only ~3500 points in antutu benchmark while my friend gets ~4500 points on his galaxy s. Witch kernel I should flash to get better performance on this rom?

for jellybean, there isn't any other kernel. there's stock cm10.1 and devil kernel. also, I wouldn't worry about antutu bench marks, they don't mean anything
On 4.1.2 hellybean I flashed devil 1.8.1 and it was working very well, super fast in games, but when I try to flash newest 1.9.5 devil kernel on 4.2.1 rom I get a lot of errors on android start - like process com.android.phone has stopped working. So, is there any version of devil kernel that works in new 4.2.1 rom?

at the moment DT is building the devil kernel inline with hellybean, so no not at the moment, give him some time and he should release a kernel separately

[Q] SIV Series ROM for i777

Does anyone have the SIV Series ROM working on their phones?
I flashed v3 and v3.1 with the Dorimax Kernel 8.39 and the back button does not work.
The ROM is working fine with the kernel, but when I press the home button, it works as the back button.
The back and search buttons are not functional at all.
Does anyone have any fix for this problem? Thanks.
Here is the link to the ROM:

You can't use that kernel, it's for the 9100 only; use AJK kernel for us (or, alternatively, STI 2.34).
But to answer your most basic question, was running the SIV rom awhile ago without issue, using AJK.

Which version of AJK were you using?
I can't use Dorimanx at all for this phone?
I just flashed back to shostock3 and it seems to be working fine.

No, you can't use the Dori kernel because it's built specifically for the i9100. The latest AJK (4.6 as of this writing) is your best bet, plus it's a splinter of the Dori kernel anyway, so in a roundabout way you'll get what you want.

Go search for these kernel:
1. Siyah (supports up to 4.3 only, discontinued)
2. Yank (supports up to 4.3 only, discontinued)
3. Boeffla (eol, maintenance only)
4. Agni
I'd suggest to reset to factory since your lagging is caused by apps that's hogging the rams. Kernel alone only can help to a certain level
^^^
If you're using a Samsung based rom use AGNi purestock kernel, if not use Boeffla Kernel or Yank kernel (been using this for months but I use Boeffla now)
Changing kernel will stop some apps from working. If i had to recommend one it'd be agni or boeffla. If i had to make you choose it'd be a stock kernel.
