Hello guys 'n girls!
I spent a long time on combining all the froyo-based roms out there with the different kernels that are available.
Here's the outcome:
Use OTA-CM-mix froyo rom from amazinglarry: [link]
After flashing the rom, flash ezterry's BiffMod kernel: [link]
Why should u use it?
it's REALLY fast
the battery-life is pretty good (I play around with it alot and get about 2 days!)
please tell me how u like it!

I would like to go back to using MDJ CM7 v2.6 (DFT flash) but the kernel that comes with it gets pretty bad signal drops in my house. I have recently tried a ROM that has the tytung R6 kernel and im getting better signal but this particular ROM is not as smooth for me as the MDJ one was. Is there a way to flash the tytung kernel onto the MDJ build? I tried with CWR but it wouldnt boot it said 'kernel failed' or somethin like that...
If the kernel has a install.bat method, you could always try that.
Hi all,
For everyone asking about custom roms ont 2.3.4 here is the situation :
For everyone who have upgraded the MS2 to the Official 2.3.4, no step back is possible to Froyo 2.2 or 2.2.2.
custom ROMs based on Froyo will not work (like CM7/9 from Tezet.)
=> Someone will have to build on based on the 2.3.4 kernel.
custom ROMs based on Chinese GB seems to work...
=> MS2Ginger for exemple.
custom ROMS based on Defy+ ROMs ?
So, who want that the CM or MIUI ROMs are ported to the newer Motorola kernel ? (So everyone could choose between BLUR, CM and others ?)
I say it on an other thread that the ms2ginger and the argen2stone roms are running on an ms2 with stock gb rom. Somebody must make an cm7 with the 2.3 kernel than wie can use customroms.
thanks for your thread.
But my question is, this official rom 2.3.4 does work better than froyo? or the custom rom 2.3.7 de CM7? It might be a dumb question or it's answered in another thread, if that case sorry.
Thanks
Yes i want Miui with the new kernel ! For a better touchsreen sensitivity for eg.
I try Argen2Stone 2.7 RE but i dont see adjust scrips and keep the old dialer from stock rom.
The 2.3.4 brings some bug fixes, and some upgrades.
From the kernel point of view, the same release is used (Linux Kernel 2.6.32.9). So no major bug fixes at kernel level for my point of view. Maybe some parameters changed.
The main point is for the "upgraders" to Gingerbread that can't go back to Froyo.

I tryed to flash MS2Ginger but the MS2 doesn't turn on.
I don't know.
could Anyone post how to flash step by step ?
tks
I think that the new kernel can improve MS2 performace so a rom based on the new kernel it's much better than the old modded rom.

I have the same idea...waiting for some MIUI or CM7 based on this new kernel.
I'd like someone who knows what they are doing to de-blur it. I have removed as much as I dare but still have too much moto... rubbish on the phone.
yeah agreed with u guys i wish a custom rom based on new gb 2.3.4

is true. I think it's time to leave the kernel of froyo that is old and start to compile with the new kernel brings improvements and is of GB!
GB kernel is in fact the same linux kernel version as froyo kernel, so there are not any improvements except for some minor patches.... So no reason to leave froyo.
I just don't get why you all guys updated to GB and then you all crying, you can't use custom roms and that froyo kernel is old and why gingerbread isn't used... GB kernel in custom roms isn't high priority in dev right now. Deal with it. GB kernel don't bring any valuable improvements, so only reason to leave froyo and get in GB are you all, who did that mistake and upgraded to official GB without even reading the forum here (because it was already written so many times there...).
No offense please, I'm just sayin' that GB kernel in custom roms don't have high priority, because of missing downgrade capability and because they don't bring nothing so exciting and big or valuable, nothing worth. So when dev update to GB, he can't go back to froyo - and this is quite big limitation...
Actually CM9 does work over Euro GB kernel. It is based on Chinese GB kernel. And I must say Tezet has made some really good progress with CM9.
And Defy ROMs based on Defy+ kernel have also been proved to work on Euro GB kernel.
These ROMs work if we remove devtree.img and boot.img from the update.zip and thus only flash system.
So I guess it is only a matter of time.

No crying here, just discussion, which is what the forum is for. What was your point?
may be it's better to find a way to downgrade.

I think I said my point clearly... But once again then:

And don't take my words too personal. Easy man, easy...
Sometimes it's cool to have stock ROM. But,it will be much cooler if we can switch to custom ROM's. Stock ROMs are slower and less free RAM than CM7 or MIUI. Now,I'm getting bored with MS2Ginger2.1.
All we have to do is just wait..
hi, did anyone manage to overclock after updated to stock 2.3?
android overclock doesn't work anymore after i updated
I really don't wanna jump all the way back down to gingerbread, so what are my rom options?
Well ...

Dear friend ... if your'e interested in Htc Sense , the ROM " Boxmax S3.5 " can be the best choice ... but if you want the CM build , you'd better try this ... Good luck

This rom [May 27, 2013][ROM][AOKP][4.2.2][720p] TouchWizMOD v3.0 [DataOnExt][NativeSD] was pretty fast too, it had it's slow moments for me at times...
I'm fixing to give this rom [ROM]Sea_PA3.10 [23MAR13] 4.2.2 a test run and load my app's on it and see how it fares with me as far as speed and lag is considered.
I was surprised at how smoothly kitkat ran [Sep. 7, 2014][ROM][KK][4.4.4][720p] NexusHD2-KitKat-CM11.0 V4.7 [Kernel: tytung_jellybean_r2] version, so I might also try SlimRom and SlimKat to see if either of those hold up well against all my app's.
Update, now using this rom: [Rom][4.2.2]Mokee Jellybean on HD2[UNOFFICAL][Source built][23-11-2013] and it's very fast and nice, giving it a test run right now as I speak...
Plus the animations are a nice touch to it.
I'll recommend you that rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/hd2-android/nand-dev/jul-27-2014-kernel-3-0-101-t2829722 , in the truth I'm using it on NAND + Data2ext but it was also very smooth on NativeSD on my 16gb Class2 microsd.
