i get that mate, no best rom.
was focusing more about the difference between hydrogenics and ressurection.

not sure why so many variation among aokp.
seems quite similar only.

litening rom and sensation ics rom both also based on sammy rom.
they look similar to me as well.

why the heck make different rom if the difference is just the theme?
at least there is a difference in litening and sensation ics (theme wise)

resurection and hydronics really looks same.  rclxub.gif

takan the difference is just the kernal diff, baseband etc?

Because there is no copyright and everyone is free to create their own rom even if it looks the same.

thanks antoo, that really make sense. now i understand. smile.gif

hm....but this also means the real number of roms for s2 is much less than it seems.
because many roms are actually copy of each other, with really minor tweaks.

so there's really just 3 main types of rom?
1. aosp/aokp (CM9,resurection, hydrogenics, etc)
2. sammy official (litening, sensation, etc...)
3. miui (any custom miui)

if so, i think i've tried them all, at least one from each kind.

Dude, the ics update won't bring big improvement to your phone.
Its because the s2 in gb already very perfect,
Only low end phone will probably feel some improvement.

Ics just intro minor improvement, and bring along some bugs with it,
Most obvious is the wifi bug.

Not sure about you, but the new browser and swipe notification is not enough to compensate the wifi buy.

Your friends lausy xperia ray, still lose to your s2 with gb even it has ics update,
Even its on jelly bean, it will still be slower. So dun panic.

Your s2 is still one of the most powerful device.

I'm sure you can see people here all discussing ics rooms like hydrogenics.
Go first page learn root and flash. Try out ics yourself.

I used to complain about slow update ,finally can't stand, learn to flash and got a taste of ics,
Now feel its not that much of a big deal, and I can go to bed peacefully without obsessing over it.

I see.. If went to lowyat cs they don't care much if you're root or not. Using the jig and back to stock rom should be enough if want to be safe.

AP set can also send to CS but don't think you'll get FOC. Since it's not under sme warranty.

Not sure how ap suppliers warranty works. Never bought ap set before.

Evening guys, just want to clarify. Does your flash player in your browser working fine?

I have tested Boat and Dolphin HD, but both stated that your flash player is not the latest one.

Anyone can shed some lights on this. Thank you. smile.gif
