After tried alot of roms out there (almost every rom), I'm sick of it. Back home and clean it up is the best idea. Why? Fully function and stable enough. Just back to stock 4.0.4. Feel that it is snappier than before. Clean up the junk file in system. Don't mod it, just make it simple and stock. Change a font to make it less boring. That it! Way faster than CM9.1. Sony didn't do a really bad job!
Edited: I change my mind now. Using CM10 again. Because I love pure Android and it's much smoother.
Tried too, look very fancy. went back to gb for less incompatibilties issue and more free ram after mass clearing stock bloatwares.
I'm with you, back to stock ICS, install only notification toggle and walkman, nothing else. The phone is stable like rock and fully working. I'm happy I went back to stock.
After all, most ROMs are just stock ROMs with modifications that a mildly experienced user can do himself. Android is all about personalisation and half the fun is doing it on your own –IMHO.
Only FXP is providing original development but Cyanogen is not really my taste, Sony firmwares are better looking –again, IMHO!

Yeah! I agreed with you. Most custom roms out there are base on stock. Maybe that's for less experience user or someone that is lazy to do it them self but CM is one of my favorite rom out there.
visual is secondary, especially with litte ram to play with, with ics, it will often than not hit below 90 and 170 the most.

Free RAM would be an issue only if you could literally take it out and play with it.
Android is filling up RAM in order to be snappier and more responsive. The fact that in some occasions it is not snappy, has little to do with the amount of free RAM and that is a very common misconception among users.

You guys tried jellybean?
In my opinion its mutch smoother than stock..

I was impressed when I was on the stock ROM with it's speed but for me modding CM is far simpler and find it to be just as fast after tweaking it to my liking, plus it doesn't come with Carrier IQ.
Ive tried them all and the most stable with customizable features is miui v4 which I tweaked for more space/ram.. Everything works and its fast..

But i would still say stock rom is the best and stable rom..and with stock kernel it is even better

Ah, didn't know that.
Of course, as the name implies, it is the carrier who collects the information after all.
Anyway, I find people posting what they eat, where and who they are with on social media much more disturbing than anonymous data collected by Carrier IQ!
But let's get back on-topic now! Thank you!
Stockroms are cool, i miss in CM Timescape and the great Social features. But Stock GB (or moddet GB) is a way faster than ICS or JB. No load time by opening a email, in ICS or JB 2-3 sec wait time, in GB no waiting time
Not sure what people are doing with custom rom. Tweak for more ram? I found that most custom rom out there have less than 180 mb of free ram. For me stock rom no bloatware. 230 mb of free ram after restart. About 190 mb after using the phone.
If only there's a way to dual boot to choose GB or ICS.
My GB setup in signature. For me it's awesome.
And I deleted 80 system apps, RAM is always around 200mb free .
MIUI V4 stock based is better imho. If you don't mind a bit slower performance that is.

I've decided to run it Retro for a little bit. This is a 2.1 Sense ROM based on the March 2011 OTA for the HTC Eris. As of right now everything seems to be working very smoothly. The Rom is default O/C at 710400 with on demand governor. Min CPU speed default is at 19200. You can easily change the cpu speeds and governors with setcpu or Conaps CPUBoost. I've also went ahead and changed the kernel to zanfurs kernel by popular request. If you want to use Conaps it can be flashed from recovery. There's also been a ton of other tweals I've added with some help from HaRdC0r3 so a big thanks to him for his input on this.
credits:
zanfur - kernel
btfb0 - all his work catching the OTA and sharing with us
Make sure you perform a nand backup before flashing. Also.. as always, what you do with your device is you're ultimate decision. No one has told you nor forced you to do anything so if anything happens to your device it's no one's fault but your own.
I recommend a full wipe on this update. All updates after this I plan to try and keep as dalvik only.

I wouldn't mind going back to Sense for some nostalgia, but I'm not sure if its worth dropping GB.
From what you got tested before the phone decided to go parachuting, minus the parachute, how does it compare speed wise compared to GB ROMs?

I honestly didn't think there was much difference in speed. I also had not o/c'd it at all. I was running it at stock which is 528. It can easily be oc'd with conap's CPUBoost or Set CPU as well. But I personally didn't think it was a noticeable difference from GB.
Dude you got a sick sense of development
Welcome to porting...
Ok. I flashed this bad boy last night. It is very smooth and fast. Of course it is 2.1 though. But really to me, when you have a phone like the Eris, trying to put 2.3 on it is pointless. Im liking this Rom. Plain and runs great. I think a black keyboard with white and gray lettering would be awesome. Good job man

Out of curiosity, why do you feel this way?
I have tried many of the 2.3 Roms on my Eris and have always had a great experience with them. 2.1 wasn't bad either. It was the trivial things that made me want to leave 2.1 and try a newer rom.

Well every 2.3 Rom I have tried hasn't been the smoothest. I was just saying that the Eris is getting dated. It is cool though that we are able to put it on if we want to. 2.1 is just so smooth that I find it hard to leave. I like both sense and aosp but if I can find a smooth sense Rom, ill take that any day.

Thanks. I am with you on Sense. I have always enjoyed it. It's what drew me to the HTC offerings when I dumped ATT and my iPhone.
Just 2.1 underneath made a little less enjoyable for me. Not that it wasn't smooth or anything like that but things like when I get a notification while I am listening to music or an audio book. In 2.1, the music or the book keeps playing even though the volume for it is replaced by the notification sound. In 2.3, the same actually pauses plays the notification sound then resumes.
I am enjoying Tazz Ginger Sense.
As you guys may know I was away for a little bit. I'm back and have some other things taken care of and I'll be looking into these problems some of you have posted and working on and update soon...
Just recommend me most stable and fast roms

Well stock GB run almost perfect till one day, than there came FCs on apps etc
When your purchased your SGS2 you were entitled to the stock Samsung ROM that came with it, plus any updates Samsung put out for your carrier and region, that's it, nothing more. It was nice that Samsung decided to push out ICS for this phone model, but they were under no obligation to do so, they could have easily said sorry if you want ICS buy a new phone, but they didn't. To take this one step further, none of the custom ROM devs owe you anything, the fact that they work hard in their spare time to make ROMs, buggy or not is totally up to them, if the ROM has bugs, switch to another, if you can't find one you like, develop your own, don't come here and complain about it.
Well to be honest it's not GSII's fault but Androids.
Some simple facts people/Droid fans try to ignore hardly,
Q- Which OS freezes the most in a month/year/mostly?
A- Android.
Q- Which OS'es applications FC'es the most?
A- Android.
Q- Which OS taught you to ignore battery life?
A- Android.
Q- Which OS will run on it's own mood?
A- Android.
Q- On which OS you won't be able to depend on?
A- Android.
Period.
So enough of Android experience for me. I use phone for serious purposes, not for show off or anything.
Can't say I've had the same experience as you running any ROMs. Try CheckROM v6.

-Battery issue, is not issue, using stock rom+root only =Iphone use
The point here is that android can customize it, and make it more juicy than the other OC's out there is.
FC is only due to the customization you do. Confirming again, stock rom is smooth as butter, but without tweak that might cause the FC.
That is all about android, and sgs2 specifically (due to 2cores), you have to make it your own, with tweak, undervolting, launchers, apps, lockscreens replacement, I/O sheduler, and so on, but this ofcource cause the FC, since the OC is not perfect, and after you installed rom, waranty is gone.
Dude, it is simple, it depends how you see it, you can leave it 'plain' and be happy, but you can try to make it amazing
Right now using checkrom v6+NEAK kernel+Magic config+Supercharge v6 RC 8.
To say the true it is amazing, i have tried 7 different ICS rom, for me speciffically they are awful, i can't stand to hurt my beauty.
Just try to do absolutely wipe of your system, external and internal sd_cards + instal plain stock rom and sthan installing rom you wish, that's all about it.
May be your phone (or better, your system partition)?
Just a few points:
1. On GB (also Android) with Hyperdroid - no bug, smooth and fast, battery 2 days easly (not very high usage: a few calls, some bluetooth, sync evry hour on 2 email accounts, screen On time 2 hours).
2. On CM9 with Siyah 3.0.1
- no one FC
- no SODs
- everything I installed works
- camera ok - pictures and movies
- same usage as per 1 - I charge the phone every 2nd day.
3. May I ask how is the battery on Xperia?
4. If you thuoght you will get a small laptop and also make calls, I can see why you are so upset.
As you said, just my impressions.
Only people that flash somthing they dont understand and complain afterwards here.
If you want a stable experience, stay on stock. If you go into Flashland, you cant expect mommy to hold your hand...
This thread is simply people raging about something that is, in the end, their own fault.
If you want good custom ROMS go for those that are not in a beta state like ICS ones... E.g. HyperDroid.
@ thracemerin
I dont want to jugde anyone, i know ure right! No one is paying to people who develop roms here and they share them for free! That is good obviously! and i believe they will make perfect roms one day!

Do a full wipe. Format system data cache, dalvik. Go to odin and flash the frankenstein xwla4 and then tell me there are no good roms for S2.
And stop using custom kernels, not only are they buggy they drain more battery and do not function properly!!
If you ant GB go for kk5 , la2 or la4.
If you prefer ICS go for frankenstein xwlp8.
All of them are really great roms, working without any problems.
@ rdubyah
i live in countryside and that phone was expensive! thats all!
I used stock 2.3.5 for about 4 months and had a grand total of 2 FCs. Remember, there are tons of buggy apps that can wreak havoc to your phone. Also, If you get frequent freezes/reboots, it could point to a hardware issue.
@trveller72
my x8 lasts for 24h on normal use.. gaming, few calls, more than few emails, 1h gaming, listening to music 2h
so u say u have used checkrom v6, stock theme with jkay settings, its almost complete man.....!
for that matter, nothing is perfect in this world, android is the last thing we should think of being perfect in that list.
i agree with u, the days of nokia 3310, 1100, samsung R220, was so much comfortable for most of us, no software issue, nothing to update regularly, just use the way it comes out of the box till it dies, i really, really miss those days...
more than using the phone nowadays, we think about updating it, making it bugfree and testing it all through the day, costed us the peace of life!!
believe me, i would buy a new out of the box nokia1100 if i get it and will throw away the so called smartphone which has no respect to my personal life/time.
so now relax and play Temple Run game on ur android, its fairly new to droid and update if your phone freezes/gets hot/reboots
I just managed to get ICS on my SII! Waited for so long and a little disapointed... There isn't that much of a difference from what I can see.
What were you expecting?
ICS is good as a secondary rom. This goes for official samsung releases as well as cm9/aosp/aokp.
Stick with gingerbread. It's still the best.

I'm not going to compare AOSP/AOKP roms with Samsung ICS. They are a joke compared to what you get in a stock samsung firmware.
Comparing samsung ics and gb... GB has less gestures and small polished features (contacts, dialer) however it offers the best browser on any phone. As a comparison, install flash player and open up youtube.com, scroll down and switch to the desktop version. Compare scrolling. zooming in. Now try to play a video using the browser. GB is super smooth never lags. Same goes with big websites that have lots of ads and flash content.
GB never force closes. It's super stable. It doesn't eat as much battery with screen on. It doesn't have the data usage info, nor the fancy task switching.
Also the stock samsung gallery is awful compared to what you get in aosp ics...
However, overall I rate it the highest for stability, functionality and great battery life. I'm sorry but ICS just doesn't cut it for me. To be honest I wish they would put out an anniversary gingerbread build with everything maxed out (like they do for the I9001 for example).
I'm not hating on ics. It's a step forward, it's just it hasn't reached the level of GB in terms of daily usage. Maybe one day.
if it wasnt for this free community android would be a mess or the manufacturers may feel obliged to make a better rom,
when you think about it samsung must use thier Android phones stock i wonder if they think its sufficient

Hey everyone,
I didn't want to be disrespectful and post in a developers thread specific to a custom firmware, nor CM, so I wanted to start this thread to get some input. There are a lot of great roms out, ARHD among others, which are modifications of the default stock Samsung firmware.
There is also the possibility to run the latest version of Android in stock AOSP by using Cyanogenmod 10.1.
Historically I have always used CM10.1 or AOKP on my devices as I switch frequently, and they have become the "brands" I know, and I like how it is not bloated. However, on buying my Note I thought it might be worth checking out stock based firmwares, especially for the IR blaster which doesn't work in CM10.1.
Has anyone here alternated between them? What made you switch to one or the other? I'm curious to get some input from others on why they made the decision they did specifically for this device.
Thanks!
EDIT: It seems most of the note features work fine in CM10.1 as well - are there any other things I am missing out on if I go CM10.1, other than the IR Blaster? I'm sure it is just a novelty that will get old quick, but still. Given I haven't used stock extensively I am not sure if I am missing out on anything else.
There are plenty of threads like this around.. I prefer stock because of the IR blast and mulit window feature.. also stock is louder with the noozxoide mod.. The reasons for CM10 is More customization, its faster than stock, Themes, and its 4.2...
Thanks - if you have links to the others I would like to give them a read, but I couldn't find any direct comparisons on XDA, especially for this tablet. The most I found was a "what firmware do you use" for the SGS2.
Im not about to look for them but here is 1...

I would stick with stock.

This is what makes the Note 10.1 so special... Even the ICS rom it came with out of the box was close to what I wanted and needed. People only started complaining when others were getting JB and they weren't.
Add root access Samsung and it would be (almost) perfect - there's always something you want or need that won't be in the stock rom.
So saying, I'm still gonna play around with custom roms too... Never being satisfied and chasing perfection is part of being human, that's why XDA was created....
Stock is the best... !

I am quite pleased with it once I ran the compatibility pack and battery mod (%). It runs quite well and I have no complaints, other than a rather bulky notification pull-up bar. Performance is pretty good. As another poster indicated, though, there is a slight delay when switching between apps using the pop-up menu. Battery life seems a bit better after a few days usage too.

I own many different tabblets, on this one its perfect out of the box, no wifi, no sod, no market or any other weird problems. when you do get one that runs fine then your battery drains fast. Always a trade off, so I go with stock and no root. Seems root is causing problems and now no root and no problems.

Rooting any device won't ever cause any problems that aren't user error.
You could do a poll to see the usage of both (stock or CM) in numbers
I use stock, Touchwiz get's boring really fast but it's more usable than anything else (ok, almost? )

Yes. This is the only reason i stick with touchwiz. If CM support the same thing, then I'll say goodbye to touchwiz like i did to my ex-Note 1.

I used CM on all of my other devices but have had no reason to use it on the Note 10.1. I just rooted the stock ROM and have not really missed CM much on the Note.
well, i'd rather use the stock rom than the CM, i have tried the CM10.1 but you know, the Multi Windows and hand writing and the IR blaster had been missed, so, after all, i have to go back to stock rom, ít' simply, a bit slower but, well, it come with full features

Do you remember your old legendary ROM: GamerzROM
It's back as Android 4.2.2.
Faster than anything you've used before.
No, you won't miss any features to take that speed. It's full with features.

According to their website, they only support 3 devices right now. You can port it yourself with this if you'd like: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1908008
I'm not sure if the dev has plans to support more devices or not.
Downloading,
Gapps required?

See their website, they have the Gapps download linked on there as well. Just flashed the ROM & Gapps, everything seems pretty nice. It is quite fast, but I'd like to give it some time before anything. I like the weather widget (my favorite looking one, same as on Captivating) as well as the launcher. It's a pretty smooth UI too, in case choppiness bugs anyone.
Any easy way to change the DPI?
RE: gamerzrom 4.2.2
Thanks for a new ROM to try! This was also on my to-port list. But I've been getting lazy.

Worked like a charm, thank you! Changed DPI to 182, still running great. (Used to SlimRom DPI)
Thank you dear friends. But I'm really shocked because of low interest from captivate community.

It's not so much low interest, it's more of the following:
- New thread, been less than 24hrs and a lot of us work .
- As you can see, there are quite a few ROMs for our cappy's, and some people don't want to try out newer ones until they read reports from other users
Give it a few days, I know there's a few other people who will try it out besides me . So far, no complaints. I would love for you to include a DPI manager with the ROM, but using textdroider DPI from the market works just fine.
Oh and inverted gapps would be cool, as well as a "dark" theme much like SlimBean.
But overall experience so far: 10/10, running flawlessly right now at 182 DPI as the only change.
RE: gamerzrom 4.2.2
If anyone is wondering, the Gapps must be flashed (yes I know it says in OP ) to introduce full functionality to the capacitive buttons and lock screen. I run without the Google apps when I can, mostly using this phone as media/game/alarm-clock device. My first boot and subsequent reboots without the Gapps package were buggy. Running fine since the Gapps flash. I used ROM Toolbox to change the DPI through build.prop. Will report back with more results soon as I can.
Super fast rom thank you so much...is there any way to increase loudspeaker volume? My cappy gives best sound on stock gb 2.3.5
2- is there a possibility to have pause and resume function in video recording like in stock gb 2.3.5?
Thanks again.
this is a good rom and one of the few which are lagless and delivers a good experience :good:
all the games work fine and 720p videos also play without lag.
so overall it is a good rom.
keep up the good work :good::good::good:
