Hello, I have recently moved from stock JB to Omnirom on S2. I tried to search but couldn't find. So would appreciate if someone could give me link for kernels compatible with omnirom (apart from the default kernel it comes with). I do have link for Gustavo_s's files for S2: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=12345
I used it for flashing omnirom. Now which all kernels would work with omnirom, if someone could provide me with links?
Bump!!!
Instead of naming kernels, I will suggest you use the best kernel compatible with all KitKat ROMs for the I9100 (OmniRom 4.4 as well). Try using Dorimanx Kernel v10 9.43v96 as some users reported that the kernel is stable for daily use and included several hardware customization. Definitely, Gustavo_s kernel is good and runs OmniRom real good, but Dorimanx kernel is a beast.

Can someone explain to me why AOSP and stock kernels (like Samsung stock kernels for example) only work on whatever type of ROM they're compiled for?
Also, why are most CM kernels still stuck on 3.0.64 when the official Linux kernel is on 3.11/3.12 now?
Hi all,
I have a galaxy s2, running 4.3.1 thanks to Paranoid Android. However,I would like to flash a new kernel that is supported by PA 3.99. I tried Dorimanx, but I lost root! I searched for many other kernels that Jelly Bean supports,but all for s3, nexus 4 or other phones. These kernels include Faux and many others...
Could someone help me as to how to keep root when flashing a new kernel and any advice about any kernel? (Note:I tried flashing the super user zip but doesn't help). Oh, and, dream kernel, siyah kernel and googy kernel either not compatible with JB or galaxy s2. Help please.
My SGS2 is running on resurrection remix custom rom based on cm11 (4.4.2). Recently i searched a lot for custom kernels for kitkat version but the latest kernel which i found was for JB. Please give me a link if you can.
Thank you in advance

Here are some great kernels for kitkat 4.4.X that I recommend:
Apolo Kernel 7.1 : http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/development-derivatives/kernel-t2291756
DorimanX 10.44 RC2 by Cybernetus: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...ivatives/kernel-dorimanx-test-builds-t2415759
Does anyone here know if there is a i777 compatible kernel for the galaxy s2 i9100 5.1 lollipop roms . I have tried using Shift- Eternal- lollipop kernel. It was compatible with the i9100 5.0 lollipop CM Resurrection_remix ROM, but I have not been able to get it to work with the 5.1 release.. I have tried replacing the boot image file from cyanide L 5.1. It boots but there is no wifi or Mobile data.

No, sorry. @rogersb11's kernel is pretty much the only game in town now. It's possible (purely speculative) that you've run into problems because he builds his own kernel instead of CM's, and RR is basically CM with added features so you would need a pure CM kernel to port.
Again, that's a guess, as that's how it used to work. He's posted an update to his rom; did you try pulling the kernel from that update?
Steve, thanks for taking the time to reply. I was afraid that was the case. Rogerb11 first 5.1 release was without his lollipop kernel. he stated that he was having problems with his kernel with wifi. I tried porting that kernel and I believe that it just boot looped. His second release with his kernel booted, but then I experienced problems with wifi and mobile. Hopefully he will release a 5.1 standalone kernel that can be ported over to the i9100 ROMs.
The truth is I have not been able to find a stable lollipop rom yet for my phone. The closest was resolution remix 5.02. and I was wanting to try the 5.1 version. Will keep checking the forum. Thanks again
Does anyone know whether there are any ports for Galaxy S2? I mean I know that latest Samsung official firmware was 4.1.2 but I was wondering if any devs made ports from other devices (such as Galaxy S3 for example) running JB 4.3.x or KK (4.4.x) or LP (5.x) etc. Searched XDA but I could not find any, grateful if someone could share their findings in this regard. Many thanks!
Hmmm....no one any ideas?
On SGII can find:
Stock base: normally latest stock without changes 4.1.2
Stock based: based on latest stock but with many changes (root,extra apps,kernels,...) 4.1.2
Custom roms: More devs create unofficial roms without her drivers but functions more stable example CM, LOS, RR.....
