Galaxy S2 - TWRP and LineageOS - General Questions and Answers

Hello, let my introduce you to my dilema. I am quite new to this and I would like to ask what to do. I have rooted my Galaxy S2 GT i9100 with Odin in order to install Neat ROM 2 years ago. Now i would like to install TWRP and LineageOS which my friend recommended to me. How does it work? Should I install TWRP over odin? Because it looks like I already have some kind of recovery installed with Neat ROM (Apolo by pedestre - it is written in the recovery mode) And then it should be easy to wipe all data and install LineageOS through TWRP right? Can you please explain to me all these things and how should I proceed. Thank you.
My device:
Samsung Galaxy S2
Model number: GT-I9100
Android version: 4.1.2
Baseband version: I9100XXMS4
Kernel version: 3.0.101-apolo_4.14_Light-gf40153f

Build number: XWMS3 NeatROM v6.4

[Q] CF-Root-SGS2_XW_MOT_KG1-v4.1 does not work

I've tried the custom kernel CF-Root-SGS2_XW_MOT_KG1-v4.1 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399, fourth post, but the CWM Manager v2.0 can't seem to create a backup of my Samsung Galaxy S 2.
I've rooted the phone and I'm on Android 2.3.3. Specs are:
Android version: 2.3.3
Baseband version: I9100XXKF3
Kernel version: 2.635.7....I9100XWKG1
Build number: GINGERBREAD.XWKG1
The developer (@Chainfire) did mention that the above custom kernel is "untested" by him. Just wondering if someone is looking to fix the issue with CWM Manager not able to backup the phone's content?
Any help/feedback is much appreciated.
I've updated my Samsung Galaxy S2 using the CF-Root-SGS2_XX_OXA_KG1-v4.1 kernel - even though the developer (@Chainfire) has said that it' only for Android 2.3.4 - and CWM Manager is working now. The phone specs are still the same except the Kernel version has changed to:
Kernel version: 2.635.7....I9100XXKG1
I guess if the developer read this post, he can update his thread at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1103399 with this info.

Cyanogenmod and Canadian Galaxy III

I have been searching for Cyanogenmod for my phone and keep coming up with conflicting information about whether certain versions are compatible or not. Any information is appreciated, the phone I have is as follows.
Samsung GalaxyIII SGH-I747M Telus
Device: d2can
Build: JSS15J.I747MVLUEMK5
CPU: ABI: armabi=v7a
Kernel: Linux version 3.0.31-2140838
Android version 4.3
Rooted
CWM 6.0.4.3 installed
I will find a link that says Cyanogenmod 10 is compatible and then 11 and 12 but with further searching it ends up being a different phone and I just want to be sure, Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

[Q] SCH-I535, VRUDNE1 cm and cyanogenmod?

I recently got a Samsung Galaxy S3
Model: SCH-I535
Version: 4.4.2
Build: VRUDNE1
Kernel: 3.4.0, [email protected]#1
Not unlocked, and non-rooted (although I've read I can root it via towelroot)
I am in love with Cyanogenmod from my previous phone, and really want it on this one as well. Is there any way to install it on this phone?
A year or so ago I rooted and installed TWRP and Cyanogenmod on my HTC Incredible 4gLTE, so I have some knowledge. I'm just rusty. Thanks for the help everyone.

Locked bootloader means no custom recovery, which means no AOSP based ROMs like Cyanogenmod.

[Completed] A problem with installing custom rom on samsung grand 2 sm-g7102

Hello everyone, a really big apology for posting this as my first thread here, I just want help installing a custom rom on my Samsung galaxy grand 2 I already got help from a friend. I rooted my phone using Kongo root and I installed a custom recovery and now running on CWM recovery. Till then everything been working perfectly and it's all was just a piece of cake. then I downloaded gapps and lolipop, placed them in my external storage, went to recovery mode, cleared cache and clear to factory settings, cleared dalvik cache, but when I went to install them. I get the same error from both of them and it's like this "This package is for device : ms013g; this device is ms103g" I tried plenty of roms out there and gapps versions including lolipop versions and checked blisspop rom too I got the same thing. I don't know what I'm doing wrong ? Or its just my phone maybe I'm downloading roms for the wrong phone ? I would appreciate anyone's help in here. It's the only place I would come to
