[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 Anything old or outdated, I haven't included in the list.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

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

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.

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.

Oxygen ROM
I vaguely remember seeing a thread for the Oxygen ROM somewhere in the s2 forum. That's missing from your list.

[Q] ROMs using JustArchi's optimizations

Hello
I was wondering if there are any Nexus 4 ROMs using JustArchi's optimizations (link). I did my best to compile OmniROM with these fixes, but I am not very experienced with Android development.

+1 to this post

Looks like our devices are too fast to use these "insignificant" compiler optimizations
I'll give my 5 cents these days to try compiling it..
Cheers

+1 for this thread.. I asked just the same thing in the general Q&A thread and nobody answered.. I'd like to see CM, ParanoidAndroid...etc.. built with ArchiDroids optimizations..

Like to see that too!
I've been searching for a rom with f2fs support + JustArchi's optimizations. Can be possible?

I created a topic earlier here
opssemnik said:
i can tell from personal experiences, its mostly placebo, tried archi´s rom on my gs3, and aside from the fact that the google camera dosent crash after first shot(witch occors on alot of roms ,even official cm, again on my s3), the rom is same speed, if not less than official cm. (on my s3 i9300)

Nevertheless, there are other statements that say it is faster, we can only know for sure if we benchmark this and find someone willing to compile a rom. Perhaps @legolas93 is willing to be so kind?

yeah i saw those,luck for them, thats why best rom threads are not allowed on xda, people get different results on their devices ,i plan to compile aosp with those just to test on the n4, but i doubt i will :/

No one is going to try this anytime soon.
The code is no where near perfect and it sets up an environment where there is a lot of room for errors which will result in VERY bugy, glitchy, crashing Roms.
The code is really sloppy and so far only JustArchi is the only one that has successfully used this in a ROM with out error.
There is still a lot of going back and forth in whether this really works since android isn't 90% thumb
All this is good for is benchmark scores. Just like F2Fs its all placebo in real world performance.
With a quadcore 2 gig phone... You're not missing much.
Legecy devices will benefit in the least from this.

First build is ready!
It is mako-userdebug.
I used Linaro toolchain(JustArchi's link) and JustArchi "JustArchi's ArchiDroid Optimizations V3" - https://github.com/JustArchi/android_build/commit/d8cc50d2472e497b431b5652516c9248ad7f3947
It is without Gapps (so PA Gapps must be used).
Build Env :
Debian GNU/Linux testing (with make downgraded from 4.xx because AOSP lunch require this).
AOSPA soruces 4.4.2_r1 used for the build.
No ART patches! ART will fail if you try using it.
Will test this today on my phone, and if successfully boot, I'll post a link for the ROM.
p.s : From back these days, where people find that AMD64 arch is here, Linux builds started to optimize the speed of your GNU/Linux for your specific CPU (Gentoo for example, or Debian GNU/Linux moved from i386 to i686 and after that to AMD64). Well, the tests and builds performance charfs finished with this : improvement of the speed was was something like 0.6/0.9% ... So in the real world reality do not expect much from this!
Regards ...
Edit:1
Boot failed
Next time, I'll enable the proprietary drivers in the build.
Currently new build is running with enabled prop drives settings like:

To use these proprietary files, comment out this line in device/lge/mako/full_mako.mk:
#PRODUCT_RESTRICT_VENDOR_FILES := true

[Q] Best choice for fluid NC ROM in 2016 -- is...? :)

Hello,
Please note I posted a similar question in 2012: "[Q] Most stable and fastest ROM (at the end of Dec 2012) -- is...?" http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2048145
I got some great answers, feel free to check the link above. However, four years later I didn't experiment at all and lots of things happened, so I have similar Q:
In 2016. which NC ROM is most meaningful to install?
This is a perfect question for someone who was willing to try numerous NC builds. I'm not lazy, but there are hundreds of pages on different NC ROMs and their versions. So far, I used only Mirage 7.2, famous for stability and fluidity (as possible on 2010. HW). But, since it's Gingerbread, it doesn't support newer apps. Long ago, I briefly tried CM10 from 2012. and it was pretty slow. I guess things have changed so far.
I've been reading other DEV ROM threads, for instance this ROM was evaluated by users as fast as Mirage 7.2: [ROM] MROM-Encore [4.2.2][LINARO][CM10.1] build:20131003
There are different builds of modified CM10 (up to stable 10.2), and also lots of only nightly builds of CM11. There is even CM13 (Android M), developing as we speak! I don't have enough time to try all these builds, so I kindly ask someone how actually tried them or even worked on them to share a small digest: what's worth of trying and working with today on a daily basis?. Maybe a small comparison.
Are certain versions of CM10 or CM11 close to fluid, everyday use? Which offer same responsiveness (or maybe just a bit slower) but with new options (mostly: possibility of running Android 4+ apps). If yes, which version in particular is worth trying? Feel free to leave links.
Finally, I'm currently on CWM Recovery ver. 3.2.0.1 installed on eMMC (not SD card install). With this ver. I can flash CM 7.2 and CM 10. How about CM11 -- do I need newer CWM Recovery?
I'm really thankful for any hint. Cheers!

CM10 + Swap partition
I am new here and not a lot of experience with Nook Color or Cyanogenmod. I recently picked up a Nook Color (encore) and wanted to try out the CM options. I didn't spend much time with the stock setup. I started CM setups almost immediately. I have tried MROM, MiRaGe CM7.2, CM10, 10.1, 10.2, & 11. The best system setup to me was under CM10. Using the regular gapps collection made it crawl, I used the minimal gapps for CM10 (Android 4.1.2). Adding 1GB linux-swap partition (2gb SD card with p1 Fat32 900mb & p2 linux-swap 1024mb) using 'Swapper 2' made a lot of improvement in usability. Also went with Apex Launcher. I may have missed something obvious but in my recent limited experience, the best CM recipe for BNRV200 was as below...
Installation base:
CWM-based Recovery v6.0.4.8
cm-10-20130421-NIGHTLY-encore
YourZgappsXS-4.1.2-2014.03.16
Changed Settings:
Performance: CPU Interactive min600/max1100, I/O BFQ, 16bit transparency, Surface disable dithering.
Developer: Display - animations off in the three sections.
Apps:
Swapper 2 configured with 1GB linux-swap partition on SD card.
Apex Launcher
Root Checker
SuperSU
Solid Explorer
Dolphin browser
Quadrant (results example = 1513 - CPU 1376, Mem 1110, I/O 4221, 2D 141, 3D 719)
YouTube app required Google Play Services, Play Services made the system crawl & lag (uninstalled both).
Facebook app was laggy. The Dolphin browser was functional.
Today I went back to B&N stock 1.4.1 and I'll use it as a reader with the B&N included apps for a while.

Hello,
This what you wrote is awesome and very helpful! Thank you for that. I liked your review and testing of CM10 and the way you presented all the options. Kudos! :good:
However, I really do enjoy watching YouTube a lot. Having CM10 that's not possible, as you stated? Google Play Services Required, which would slow down the whole system. At the moment I am on Mirage 7.2 and using super-old YouTube app ver. 2.3.4. -- which works fine, but is really old, just the basic options.
Is this definitely: CM10 and YouTube can not go together? Thanks a lot!

some of you know me from the other OnePlus or Samsung devices areas, where I provide my kernels already for more than three years to OnePlus One, OnePlus Two, OnePlus X, Galaxy S5, S3 and Note 10.1 users for all sort of platforms (Samsung, Cyanogenmod, Omnirom etc.)
Please note:
I am not heading to have as many features as possible implemented, this is not my design goal. If you are more into that, move on to other, good existing kernels. If you are searching for a good mix of improvements and new functions while not sacrificing stability, you are welcome here (see below the history section for more info).
Compatibility
Important: This kernel is only meant to be compatible with official OnePlus OOS and nothing else.
So when the kernel does not run on custom rom XYZ, do not even bother me with it or ask hundred times in the thread for compatibility.
I could not care less about it !!
To add: An open beta (aka community build) is NOT an official build supported here. If you use a community build and have issues, don't complain or even report. I am not merging any kernel changes from open betas into my kernels !!
Important notes
When using new anykernel concept Boeffla-Kernel: Flash stock kernel of rom first !
This kernel is ONLY compatible to OxygenOs stock, nothing else !!!
If you are using a custom rom that bases on OxygenOs, it might work. However, if it does not work, do not expect me to do tweak to make the kernel running with your favorite rom. I would not do it - my one and only reference is OxygenOs stock.
It is not supposed to be compatible to CM, HydrogenOS etc.
Also note: You have to use Boeffla-Config app which I provide on my homepage to tweak the kernel. 3rd party apps will not be able to unleash the full power of the kernel.
Installation
Read the install instructions in the support section on the Boeffla Site.
Support
First read the FAQ section on the Homepage !!!
Click here to learn about all possible kernel settings in the config app (outdated at the moment).
Click here to learn about using the config app (outdated at the moment).
I will refuse to give support if you do any undervolting/overclocking and experience freezes or hot reboots.
I will also not provide any support if you do not use Boeffla-Config app to tweak the kernel, other 3rd party tweaking apps are known (and intended) to cause issues.
I will refuse to give support if you have xposed framework installed and reporting any kind of weird issues. My opinion to xposed it quite clear: too powerful for >90% of the users that just mess up their system with it.
Otherwise, you can get in touch with me via the support e-mail address: [email protected]
Please provide kernel version, rom version, a detailed issue description and ideally supporting screenshots or log files.

History and design targets
Basically I created my first Boeffla-Kernel in 2012 as there was no kernel for the Samsung Galaxy S3 around that had exactly the mix of functionalities that I wanted. I wanted to have full flexibility in undervolting and charge rates for instance, but did not like the sharpness and/or brightness tweaks many kernels have implemented as per default.
Hence, I began to create my own kernel after a while, adding all the features I like. This is the result of my work, which in the end I decided to share with you. I hope you like it as much as I do.
The objective of this kernel is to have a kernel for daily use. It does not aim for best battery life, or best smoothness or best benchmark scores. Also it does not aim to have the broadest feature set available everywhere.
It aims more for a good mix of all, not sacrificing stability and functionality in the end.
And - most important: It aims to stay quite close to stock !!!
These design targets are also valid for the OnePlus kernel here!!!
This said, I will definitely NEVER implement:
things I do personally not need
things I do not like
things that are in any way dangerous
anything which is highly experimental
f2fs - it is known to cause various issues and compatibility problems
a CAF based kernel
anything that requires upstreaming of kernel parts to a higher kernel major version
So do not even ask for it if it falls into the listed categories. Everything else I am happy to check and decide.
And: I do not really care about benchmark numbers, they say almost nothing as long as something is not completely wrong. Important for me is the feel-good factor.
I am also not interested in gaming at all, so never expect a gamer kernel. It will just not happen...
Compatibility
To reiterate it again: Flash the kernel only if you are running a compatible rom !!!
Configuration of the kernel
To tweak and configure the kernel, manually load and install the app "Boeffla-Config V2" from the downloads section on www.boeffla.de.
You need at least version 2.4.02 or higher for the OnePlus 3 Boeffla Kernels.
Donation
If you like my work, feel free to donate: Donation-Link
If you donate at least 2,49 EUR (to be in line with the donation app prices on Google Play store), you will receive a personal donation code which unlocks some nice little comfort functions in Boeffla-Config V2 on top.
Source code
All sources can be found in my Github repository: http://github.com/andip71
Credits to developers
Of course, I had never been able to create all that by my own. So I want to give credits to the really good developers around, that have given me all the inspiration and from which I cherry picked lots of the implemented functionalities:
* ZaneZam
* Grarak
* Yank555
* Hardcore
* Chainfire
* AndreiLux
* Netarchy
* Gokhanmoral
* Simone201
* Mialwe
* Entropy512
* Faux
* Harunjo
* FranciscoFranco
* Ak
* Osm0sis
... I just hope I did not forget someone. If so, please let me know and I will add you of course.
Thanks to all of you for your great work !!!
Disclaimer
*** As always - Flash on our own risk! ***
Make sure you flash the correct version depending on your firmware version!
I can and will not take any responsibility for bricked phones or lost data.
It is generally recommended to run a complete Nandroid backup in your custom recovery and safely store your personal data before you flash a new kernel.
Cheers and enjoy
Andi

*** You want my support? Then stick to my rules ***
Guys, I am receiving more and more completely useless support requests in different threads. Useless because people provide nothing to be able to help, not even the minimal possible information they could give.
Hence, I will now remind anyone again on the support guide lines stated here:
http://boeffla.de/index.php/support/support
Also you need to ensure you follow the installation guide lines incl. trouble-shooting stated here:
http://boeffla.de/index.php/support/installation-how-to
And to cut a long story short: If you do not at least provide what I request in the support guide lines, I will IGNORE YOUR REQUESTS IN FUTURE.
Straight and simple. I have enough of people wasting my time just because they are too lazy to write details.
Period.
Also as a reminder:
you use xposed? -> no support, everything is your own issue
you use a custom rom and not the official stock or CM one? -> good luck, you are on your own
you undervolt or overclock? -> have fun, but without my support
Sorry, this might sound harsh (and it is meant to sound harsh), but you cannot imagine about how crappy support requests can be. Stating something does not work is just not enough.
Please consider that!!!
Andi

Allright folks, thread is open. Kernel is available for download.
Before you start, please make sure you read the following information at least:
http://boeffla.de/index.php/support/installation-how-to
http://boeffla.de/index.php/support/support
If you have trouble, I ask you to also scan for your issue in the OnePlus 2 thread, as major parts are the same on both devices (http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-2/orig-development/kernel-boeffla-kernel-05-10-2015-t3218164)
Enjoy
Andi

It's going to be legen. Wait for it. Dary
Thanks Dev for supporting OP3

Let me create a stock kernel section for it on www.boeffla.de, then yes. But this can take till tomorrow, I am out very soon today.
Apart from that, you can always flash OOS dirty over, this brings you stock kernel back.

Yeees, but... not 100%.
IMHO it backups the kernel image, but not the kernel modules too.
And OnePlus is using kernel modules on OOS.
Just to be very precise.

It finally happened
OMG.
Now I have no excuses anymore to not buy a Oneplus 3.
So it was a short interruption without Boeffla on LG G4 (5 months)
Many, many thanks for this.
Hail to Lord Boeffla. I can not live without your kernels
Greetings and keep calm.

Some got the app working on 3.5.1?

Same here, not working boeffla config in OSS 3.5.1... The kernel is very good, smooth, but the apk isn't working yet...
Good job bro, your kernel is awesome..

[Un-Official | Yu Yureka Black] AEX v4.6 (New Source | QC | F2FS) [140918]

Hi all,
This ROM is based on New Sources by Louis Popi (h2o64). I have added many features to the New Source to make it more polished and useful. Since this ROM is based on New Sources, it is completely Stable and has no BUGs. This is a Nougat Build due to the fact that New Sources were made with Nougat. There is work being done to port this New Source over to Newer Android Versions.
This ROM should act as a full replacement of Official Stock N ROM for our Device as this ROM is fully stable and functional except for Gestures.
BUG-Fixes/Additions on top of New Source:
-Support for F2FS.
-Improved Reporting of Battery Usage.
-Improved HMP Scheduler Tunables i.e., Better Performance and Lesser LAGs.
-Improved WiFi Configuration i.e., now you'll be able to use Full Speed of your Broadband Connection through WiFi as now Link Speed is supported upto 150 Mbps instead of 72 Mbps earlier.
-Enable Support for Screen Casting over WiFi.
-Enable Reporting of Current in mA on LockScreen.
-Fix Playback of Recorded Videos.
-Fix Video Recording in Stock Camera.
-Support for Synaptics Touch-Screen Driver.
-Pre-Built with MiniVelocity Kernel which---
---unlocks CPU-Frequency upto 1497 MHz for big and 1209 MHz for LITTLE Cluster respectively for Extreme Performance.
---supports Qualcomm's Quick Charge for Faster Charging (a capable Charger is required i.e., [email protected]).
---contains Tons of Minor Improvements
Special thanks to vjspranav for compiling this ROM on my behalf as I didn't have access to a Server.
That's all folks!
-Shoaib Anwar
