[Q] Which rom to choose? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys, Ive been using cm9.1 for some time, but days ago I compared my battery life with a friends phone who's using stock samsung 4.03 and realised he had like 5 or 6 more hours. It would be great if you people could tell me which good roms considering battery life. Thank you very much!

He didn´t ask wich is the best rom, just asked for advice.
I advice you the latest samsung roms from samfirmware stock rom, use the proper rom for your carrier or area.
And search one of the great kernels that you have from our great developers here and you will be happy.

Thats what i wanned to know thank you!

If your comparing your phone with your friends,you would have to be doing exactly the same things/have the same settings/apps running etc.
Then if there was a 6 hour difference a conclusion could be drawn.

Why not using the stock?
Stock rom has best battery life

Best rom, advice on choosing rom etc etc its the same bloody thing and simply NOT allowed for many reasons but mostly been that is just clones other threads that are also opinionated. There is no need for threads like this you should be trying roms yourself and seeing what works bets for you, not creating topics that already exist to ask and answer the same stupid questions over and over.
Reported!

I think you need to close the half of the threads in xda. Look friend he is a junior member. Don t be so angry about this. He put the things correctly. Thats why sometimes we loose good people in xda. I ve devloped a rom a timw ago and some guys like you with some tone like you lead me to close my account in xda. And I was on the wright way developing roms for xperia devices. So be gentil and don t scarw newbees. Its not needed. Greetings

No, people who don't read sticky topics or use search before creating topics is whats needed as they just add to the flood.

I recommend you search, read and try them out to make that decision. Locked

How do i make my own custom ROM?

For that you have to read a lot understand the basics of android, it should be your first step

Some ROMs ive downloaded seem to be just a stock ROM with twlauncher replaced by other launchers available on the market with extra apps added.

Unlikely to be just stock + different launcher but you would need to read the roms specifications .
Point out rom version you describe please .

It sounds to me like what you want to do could be achieved with a Kitchen, which is a program that can help you customize your existing ROM by adding and removing pieces from it. The kitchen then normally outputs a ZIP file you can flash.
Some kitchens run on your handset, some run on your PC.
I am new to Galaxy S II (I've been a Vibrant user for years), but I am sure a quick search of the forums will find you some kitchens.
I am a complete noob to this even if I get one of these kitchens i wont know what do next, will it have tutorials?

Essentially you're looking for an easy way to do this (like 90% of people on here), and there isn't one.
If you really want to make roms you wouldn't be asking basic questions on here. You'd be doing the research/learning necessary to achieve what you say you want to do.

This says it all. You're not even close to having the ability to make your own ROM.
And before anyone flames, I happily admit that I'm not close either. I've done the research, but lack the time and - especially - skills necessary.
There's a lot of tools that will help you theme a ROM, probably a better point to start from. Check the general android themes forum.
I know im not close but there was a time when the best rom producers didnt even know what a rom was.
Im just tryin to find out where to start and since theres a lot of rom developers on this site i think its the best place to ask

Agree - everyone has to start somewhere. But I reckon most devs here have some coding/programming skills as a base - something I certainly don't possess.
Here's a noob's guide that I've been promising myself to try one day, when I have 8 or 10 years spare... seems a good starting point anyway. It's for the HD2 but the general theory seems universal.
Otherwise, google.

[Q] Best ROM according to you!

As there is almost 1xx roms out there (if not more) i wonder what you think is the best rom. you can also compare two roms, or even compare different android versions, and tell what you miss and what you don't miss. mostly there is improvement in JB and many say its the best but do everyone agree? honestly this can keep track for other members that seeks a rom they want,
Hope you understand the meaning of this thread, this is to share information so other people can take advantage of your information.
please tell what made you move from your current rom.
what makes you stay on your current rom, also what can be improved, or deleted or if its perfect as it is.
Have fun
Buddy, I think this goes against forum rules...

300+ posts and still you are asking this question here. !!! Bravo !!!
There are many good JB ROMS here, you should try yourself to make your own opinion.

I can't decide who the bigger idiots are. The ones who are silly enough to ask for a 'best rom' or the ones who actually give their half assed recommendations.

The best ROM is the one that works best for you on your device. Try a few on and make your own decision.

I do not understand this answer. This is not a simple question, "what is the best rom or .." I planned to spend a lot of time, I've tried 10 + x rom, but I could not find anything that met all respects.
So I thought that I ask of you ..
So keep trying roms until you find one that has what you want.

You'll have to wait for official sammy firmware for jb to be released to have a combination of stock features such as video calls and customizable kernels with oc and such... then the devs will bring all the goodies. The leaked firmware is nice but needs some polishing and custom kernels to be developed for it. Wait coupla weeks. It'll come

You may not have used the word "best",but it has most of the ingredients of a "whats the best rom" thread.
And how many accounts do you have on here......

Best rom threads are not allowed at xda... you should try them yourself cause everyone has a different opinion about different things...

Please test these things for yourself.
