[REF] ROM, Kernel, Kitchen & Modem List - Galaxy S II (07/04/12) TIME FOR UPDATES!
Hey everyone!
The last ROM List I saw was last updated in July, so I thought I may as well make a new one and keep it updated. However, this includes ROM Kitchens, Kernels and Modems too!
If you find that I've missed anything, something has been updated behind my back, or if you would like your ROM or kernel added to my list, PM me. Anything old or outdated, I haven't included in the list. If it gets updated behind my back and I haven't added it, hit me up with a PM and I'll add it.
BEFORE you even THINK about flashing any of the ROMs, Kernels, or Modems below, read the following guides:
Rawat's EFS Backup guide - This guide will instruct you on how to backup your EFS folder on your phone. This folder contains all the information that is specific to your phone such as the IMEI, MAC Addresses and other sensitive information. The thread goes into more detail about it.
wilk22's Guide to Android and the Galaxy S II - This guide contains a heap of useful information for both the beginner and advanced user. It's a good idea to read this before flashing anything. It will help.
pulser_g2's Galaxy S II FAQ - Name says it all. A lot of frequently asked questions about the Galaxy S II answered in one place.
Hacre's Original Development vs Development - This picture based guide explains the difference between the Original Development and Development sections.

Kernels
KERNELS
Siyah Kernel
Features:
All-in-1kernel because it supports CM9, Samsung and MIUI ROMs with a single kernel image.
Custom CWM touch recovery with swipe gestures
8 freq steps (100MHz to 1600MHz)
3-step GPU frequency levels. Samsung default is 160-267 whereas SiyahKernel default is 160-200-267 which saves power without sacrificing performance.
Auto-root. You can also remove root via ExTweaks app and install it without rebooting your phone again. Auto-root can be disabled as well.
CPU Overclock/Undervolt support (we have two interfaces for that. both of them are defacto standard)
Tweakable vitalij's value (set to 5 as default)
Fixed fuelalert wakelocks
You can completely disable android logger using ExTweaks app
Faster charging for misc and USB modes. There are 3 modes (AC, Misc, USB) and normally last two of them support only slow charging. You can have charging speed of AC by increasing it (especially user while charging in car or using USB port)
Cpu governor optimizations
Gpu voltage, clock and stepcount interfaces (GPU Overclock/Undervolt)
Tegrak's touchmove support.
Brightness curve settings with original panel gamma values. panel values unchanged, so you will get stock colors and will be able to use supercurio's voodoo display app when it is released. brightness modification will only change auto-brightness response.
BLN support both for Samsung and CM9 ROMs (use BLNControl app from the market to enable it)
Better touch sensitivity (especially while charging)
Available CPU Governors: Ondemand (default), Pegasusg (new hotplug aware governor from Samsung), Lulzactive, SmartassV2, Interactive and Conservative governors added
CIFS
Available I/O schedulers: CFQ (default), noop, Deadline, SIO, V(R)
J4FS as module
ARM topology support (SCHED_MC)
Automatic EFS Backup
Lots of I/O tweaks and filesystem optimizations via some parts of thunderbolt scripts.
Voodoo louder support (already default in all kernels but people ask it if it is supported)
USB Mass Storage mode is working in CWM Touch Recovery
built-in profile support with default, battery and performance presets (you can change them in CWM Recovery). Even using everything default will save you a lot of battery juice.
Almost everything is configurable such as scheduler features, hotplug thresholds, GPU frequencies, voltages, arm topology modes... and they are configurable via simple and free ExTweaks App from Google Play
Current Version: 3.0
Supports: CM9, Samsung, MIUI

I have (mostly for my own consumption really) started putting this information (and everything else I can find about the Galaxy S2) in Wiki format. Feel free to help me keeping it up to date for the benefit of everybody.

I don't mind the least bit and I sincerely hope someone will help updating that list.
Personally I have always found that a forum - such as this (even if this one is not a bad example) have an extremely low signal to noise level. It takes way too much digging to find precisely the information needed. In my personal opinion - wikies are actually better suited for providing information. A great example is this page: http://nookdevs.com/Portal:NookColor which basically contains all information you'd ever need about hacking the Nook Color. I had been googling around for a android hacking wiki but didn't find any - so decided to throw one up. However, I do realize that if I am the only one editing it, it won't ever become anything but my own random notes (which is what it is right now). But with other users helping with the edits it could at least theoretically turn out to be a great source for information.
So - I appreciate that you added it to the list and I sincerely hope someone will pick up the idea and help adding and changing the wiki.
---------- Post added at 10:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:49 AM ----------
Originally I had configured the wiki to require registration before edit, but in the true wiki spirit I have now disabled that - so anybody can edit it. If that result in too much vandalism I'll just swap it back again.

I've been looking everywhere for a compilation of this sorts... and I'm glad somebody has colated this info... good place to start instead of searching for [ROM] and getting a message that search is down for maintenance...
a tabular overview would also be helpful, with if its based from samsung firmware, cyanogenmod, feature list, kernel included, etc.
Wait.. Was this phone even out in January?

I've currently listed if its based on official Samsung firmware or CyanogenMod base under the "Base" However there are only three listed so far.. CyanogenMod, MIUI and the letters and numbers for Samsung firmware (XXKG6, XXKH3, etc)
I'll look into adding kernels and features
I might not add ALL features, but some generic ones like Odexed or Deodexed.
Edit: Failure at Multi-Quoting established.

Thanks for the threat. Nice info for those who wanted to know custom ROM for SGS2. This should be stick up.
Awesome... subscribed and bookmarked...
Coz of this I've stopped searching and decided on going "insane" (insanity ii)
makes it so much easier to look for a rom in one glance and decide based on a preference; mine being cm7, stripped down.

This would be a great thing to have, and it is what I'll most likely throw into the third post however that is a lot of information. Possibly if it could be slimmed down to only a few lines. Like including only the important bits.

Hi,
Thank you for this impresive kernel!
Two requests:
1) Can you include exFAT support for SD cards?
2) Can include this patch for CD-ROM USB Emulation? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2196707
Please, continue supporting custom kernels for Wiko

Hi,
Thank you for this impresive kernel!
Two requests:
1) Can you include exFAT support for SD cards?
2) Can include this patch for CD-ROM USB Emulation? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2196707
Please, continue supporting custom kernels for Wiko

Thanks !! :good:
Please try exFAT on this test version. Waiting for report :fingers-crossed:
Hi,
I'll try the exFAT support when I reformat my current SDCard. However I can confirm that this beta kernel with exFAT support works and "cat /proc/filesystems" returns exfat.
Now, another suggestion: The ZRAM support in the Mediatek kernels is hardcoded in size. If you review the file "/kernel/drivers/staging/zram/zram_sysfs.c" you can note the comment "/* Fix disksize */". In the initialization is used the constant "default_disksize_perc_ram" that is fixed to 50% of RAM in the file "zram_drv.h". I suggest to change the default value to 25 (orignal value from Google developers). I can't understand why Mediatek has hardcoded this value. This creates the ZRAM totally useless!
Please, can you change this value and recompile the kernel?
Thank you!

Thanks for test!
Google maintains the same config. You can see here:
kernel/mediatek/+/android-4.4.4_r4/drivers/staging/zram/zram_drv.h
Also Siddhesh.K15 disable zram (battery drain). But I can make a test version.
Hi,
This repository has the MEDIATEK sources, from Mediatek, not Google or Wiko. So it's this company who has included this hardcoded size of ZRAM. My problem is that with 50% of 1GB RAM the ZRAM size is 512MB compressed (with 3:1 it's around 200MB of RAM). This is a lot of memory. I suggest to change this value to 25% of physical RAM, not 50% as now. It's only one line of code! If the user don't use ZRAM (disabled by default), nothing changes, but when s/he enables ZRAM, the new size will be more interesting. I feel Mediatek fixed the value thinking on devices with 512MB of RAM, not 1GB. Also, I'm sure that all devices with Android 4.4 and Mediatek CPUs have this "bug"!
I hope, someone in the future eliminates this restriction.
Regards!

Hi,
Testing version WR-V2. First feeling: awesome! Very good! Thank you!
ZRAM at 25% it's great!
For DriveDroid patch: I can't select "Function Swtich in Android kernel". Are you sure that this version includes the patch and has cdrom support?
Thank you man!

YES, it's works! When I select an ISO or IMG in DriveDroid, now it's possible to select USB ro, USB rw and CDROM.
I continue testing ZRAM with different values.
Thank you!

The kernel does not support zram now. Soon I will send a compiled version with zram support.
And if you are so kind you can test the battery consumption.
Thanks for testing.

Here zram version.
Hello everyone ... first of all I want to thank the author ... its fantastic ...
how can I disable the power saving multicore ??
This kernel will not be overloaded with tons of I/O and CPU schedulers and useless features. I will test and merge what works best and probably provide 1-2 different options on hotplugs.
Disclaimer: DO NOT FLASH THIS ON ANYTHING BUT J700P latest stock firmware.
It may not brick your device if you do because it uses the ramdisk on the device but it will definitely boot loop at the least.
Update 6-10-17
Version 0.4
Complete rebase. Now using Minz1's base with TONS of fixes from CAF and we are working on merging LTS point releases.
This is the result of I and Minz's work.
This release I was mostly working for stability and optimization again. I haven't merged in any I/O or CPU schedulers yet.
I don't have time to list the features so check git if your curious.
I updated the link to the new repo.
Download:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B22ZNBermHGrZjlnUmNFRl9JeW8/view?usp=drivesdk
Update 6-9-17
Version 0.3
Compiled with UberTC GCC 5.3
Stability fixes
Added intellli-thermal
Anyone have any feedback or suggestions/questions please feel free to comment.
Version 0.2
- SAMSUNG_RESTRICT_ROOTING disabled (I forgot to disable this on the first build). Root works fine now. SuperSU root would work anyway but works better now with no issues at all
- More low level optimizations. Check git for details. Faster, power efficient, etc.
- Compiled with UberTC 4.9 instead of the included arm-eabi 4.8 toolchain. Will be switching to a GCC 5.x or GCC 6.x UberTC or Linaro toolchain next build, or two.
- Dynamic Fsync.
- Powersuspend driver.
- CPU frequencies can be changed and set permanently in kernel Adiutor.
- Kcal screen/color control.
- BFQ I/O scheduler.
- Random fixes here and there.
Check source for all changes.
Version 0.1
Default hotplug is mpdecision in-kernel replacement by fluxi

Big shout-out to Minz1. He helped me get the WiFi working (again) so otherwise this may not have even been possible. It was really kicking my ass.
