I too have a Samsung Galaxy S2. I am using Phone-Bricker 2.5 It has a great app called Kitchen that helps you out with adding things onto the ROM and customizing it further.

How did you root your sgs2?
I'm on VK rom... I really flashed a lot of roms and this is the one I stick with, it still updates so thats good...
I maybe suggest to start all over. backup everything you need to backup and wipe your whole system. then just flash the vk rom.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1559009
and if the battery issue is still there... charge your phone 100%, enter recovery mode and wipe your battery stats.
hope I helped a bit
The phone-bricker rom also looks good!! gonna flash and test it right away!! I'll let you know what I think of it...
I love the kitchen!!! Checkrom also has it! still waiting for that ICS rom to come.
grts!!!
unfortunatetly, the phone-bricker rom does not respond well in my sgs2... my BACK button and my homebutton aren't working... flashed it twice after full wipe. you know why this could happen??

so, the phone-bricker rom really bricked my phone. I tested it and as I said, my backbutton and homebutton didn't work anymore... and when people call me they only hear some loud noise, as if I was somewhere with a lot of wind, but not my voice at al (tested it by calling myself ) so I tried to start over and as I flashed the original ICS back, the call problem was gone. flashed the phone-bricker again and had the same problems. it's a real phone-bricker!! maybe other phones react differently...
still prefere the VK rom!! making my way back to it now...
grts
I also used many but so far, ICS Resurrection Remix and Liting' Rom are the best and stable.
Yeah now running the new remis and it is just what I want! A light smooth rom! But I don't get the tablet mode as you also can find in D4 rom... Is it a setting that I must change? I wanna try the sgs2 tablet!

What I wish for
Hi,
I seek a ROM that is FAST (with OC), STABLE, and customisable. What would you recommend? Thanks in advance.
Hello. I tried Ollo SII and I think that this rom has the best battery life. Try it if you want...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1650293
Or do you have any other rom with good battery life?
Is it just me or does our device experience slowdown after 40 + hours of uptime ? mine severely slows down ! and believe me .. i've flashed it every way i do thinks right ! i've had this device for a year nw and i hav to reboot it after every 2 days just to make it run smoother ! firmware DDKP3 .. Bam bck kernel v13 !.. any1 else having such n issue ?
I am on CM9, with UC's kernel for CM9, running perfect with no slow downs.
This issue is for every stock rom....
If u have many apps... That cud also be a reason...
Try wiping cache and dalvik

Pretty much this ^. CM9 makes such a big difference. I'm not even using the UC kernel (just plain dhiru's kernel) and it's been going for nearly a week without any lag at all.
I have a similar issue, no lag, but the camera goes black very often and I need to reboot..
thanks for the response and yes its jsut the stock gb versions i confirmed samsung is bloody **** i'd say ! m on remics rom 50 hours of usage and still going smooth and stable dam u video record ! hope it gets fixed soon

You won't face any lag when using that ROM or dhiru's CM9 clean.
Yea it is a problem with stock gb roms. I'm too on DDKP3 and BCK v13 kernel.
I reboot phone every ~8 hours!
cus i can not post in the "development " so I'd like to feedback here and hope someone can feedback for me
1st, It's strange, if you set ur language to english the rom's system ui will be fine , but if you set it as chinese or others, it will be system ui FC
2nd, is it possible to add an option to show the carrier label in the status bar ? some one may keen on it ~

can you work on increasing the battery life of the 4.3 pac im running the new 1.0 kernel jbx but still the roms using up a lot of battery
underclocking and tweaking the governors seem to help a little but i think the kexec drawing a lot of power.
btw gr8 work on the rom integration of cm pa and aokp
saw ur github nice wrk.........:good:

i second tht opinion but pa seems to have less battery consumption and with the gapps included into the rom it seems to be quite stable.
but if you want to tweak around with your cpu cm should do the trick.
Agree

Me too. But i found that 4.3 pacman has less battery drain. The cm 4.3 is a real toaster. the devices heats up for no reason sometimes. Ravi bhai kabhi milo to sahi. Personally dhanyavad karna chahenge aapko currently on pacman 4.3 . Also curious what MIUI v6 might bring....!!
feedback!
hey, so I just noticed a few things, any fixes?
- the lock screen doesnt work (doesnt show up), even after setting up a pin or pattern, locking the phone via power button doesnt work, and its set to immediately lock as well. any idea?
- got the gapps for 4.3 installed..but it didnt come with a play store.. so i figure i install my own.. tried multiple versions just in case, even the latest for 4.3 and it just says no connection, I am connected to wifi and there is internet via firefox and gmail recieves emails as well, the stock browser just fc's but dont matter. any idea?
just need these two and its a perfect build for me, great workk!!
kk so running the 4.3 pacman by Ravikirancg on att atrix 2 with bmm on system 3..tried multiple reboots,tried clearing cache and dalvikca already to no avail.
thanks

Maybe a bad download and/or a bad flash.(?) I haven't had any of the issues you're reporting, and haven't seen others reporting the same so it is likely something on your end. Just redownload and reflash and see if that helps.:thumbup:

Lastess nigthly builds
Hi, the pac rom is very stable and fast, i use the nightly 23.
But, i have a bug to repport wen usb headset is connected, and recive or do a call if you don't hang before the other person hangs the phone is blocked and restart a little secs after.
Second with the lastes builds 26, 25 or 24 the wifi is not working. I test restarting, with wifical.sh, a fresh install (4.0.4 or 4.1.2) motorola roms flashed with rsd, i tried to install the 23 over 26 rom and wifi didin't start.
After trying , changing , applying all types of hook and crook trying almost every rom .... i am still helpless..??
I know "THE STOCK ROM" is the most stable...but gradually the system goes slower ... making hell out that..??
I think ICS roms available there are which are amazingly fast but lacks full stability....!!!
Can anyone please suggest me a pretty usable ICS rom ...??? "WITH WIFI BUGS FIXED (even other too)..??"

I know but every or other ROM has bugs but thats not a major bugs..
Wi fi bug is there in cm 10.2 as well.. So you have to leave with it if you want smoothness.. As you describe in your question..

Calls should now work without lockups. Data seems flakey? Let me know your finding
(This is now working due to rolling back to old RIL blobs (pre 4.3). This means that the connection process takes longer on initial start-up and switching to air-plane mode as well. )
Leave wifi on to avoid reboots.
Also this doesnt have the camera bug fix yet that Derteufel made.

REVIEW
Thank you very much for this build for the i9305
I have been waiting for the first lollipop build
I installed this rom and this is a written review after one hour of usage
1 the phone boots without any problem
2 lollipop gapps are working
3 Sometimes wifi works and sometimes no
4 Bluetooth works
5 some random reboots and sometimes it stuck so I need to remove the battery to get it working again
6 no FCs at all
7 seems fast
8 when I open an app installe from play store the phone stucks and I remove the battery
Thanks again and I wish u improve this rom in the coming days
Good job mate but I think it'll be better to edit your thread to make something more attractive, Flash Guide for noobs , links to gapps, alternative dl links , what works, what doesn't , credits , shiet like this would be better for everyone.
The main problem of your rom seems to be the kernel (random reboots , wifi issues , random freezes)
Anyways , good luck and thank you for the rom

This isnt meant for n00bs to flash yet. This is an alpha.
In Alphas you expect to get problems! This is only meant for testing and for trying out 5.0 on your device...
can we flash this normally?
CM 5.0.1 build added to OP. Please read notes about what isnt working before flashing!
So the latest build is the most stable one (CM12)? Can I help you in any way, testing, logs or something?

Well at this point in time no. I've just got to try to figure out whats going wrong still and then people can test to see if it works for them and if there is any long term problems with it. Until then its just make a change, compile and flash and I'll let people know if I get anywhere.
for me it is stuck on bootloop... first flashed wih wipe full/dalvik/cache then flashed gapps - bootloop. second dirty flashed again, booted, android is upgrading, optimizing apps, then rebooted and again bootloop... how to get past this ?
Tested. Boots okay. Data baseband ok. Incoming calls ok. Outgoing calls impossible. Tested with 2g

As I said this doesnt have the camera firmware patch added so some people might get bootloops... I'll add this in the next day or two from Derteufel

So, we are at the final step - outgoing calls, huh?
There also appeared some new commits on nameless gerit, just informing
Outgoing calls can be made now. But it seems to lockup when hanging up. New link in OP for 'new' build.
Calls should now work!
This is using old ril blobs so initial connection from boot will take longer. Also I think data is stuffed a bit. Seems to take a long time to get connected. Seems to work for me after that though. Post your finding please!
Hopefully Derteufel can figure out the problem with the newer blobs but till then this is working if anyone is interested.
Edit: only got one question. Can wifi be turned off. Will disabling it cause bootloops?

Yes, it does work indees! In and out! Really great, the whole system is smooth.

Stock kernel? We are only using that to get data working... I'm sure Derteufel will switch to his own kernel as soon as he irons out the problems with phone calls locking up etc. (Or he switches to old RIL blobs for now)
Then there will be the challenge of getting R4P0 drivers to work properly.
After that who knows? Fix opensource compass?
Then Nameless may have other upgrades to implement for HWC.
