alright ill check it out i have a feeling im gonna be doing alot of flashing! haha
Also you can check out LiquidSmooth Jellybean RC9. Its an awesome rom! if your new to flashing roms, this one was easy to install and use, make sure you install a gapps.zip as this rom doesn't come packaged with it. Enjoy!

Since i flashed this on top of cm9 and this rom is based on aokp 40, If I were to flash Eugene's kernel, do I flash cm9 or aokp kernel?

Is this based off of the tmobile or at&t leak? Is it safe to flash custom kernels?

Installer is out till next build. If you flash this on top of cm9 without doing super wipe, you get all the customization settings of aokp. It can be its own rom or an add on for cm9

I'll be flashing over aokp... And just do a darkside cache wipe correct? And the installer is like twrp or are these 2 different things? it mentions about choosing boot animations and etc.. Could I say flash the cm9 boot animation but keep my aokp?? Probably a stupid question.

1.1 will not have installer. But when it does come out, a screen will pop up after you flash the zip and it'll give you options to install different stuff, kernel, boot animation etc. Its pretty cool

Skyrocket doesnt have RC1 you were miss informed.
http://get.cm/?device=skyrocket&type=RC
also developers have lives and dont get paid for their work.
If they did that would be a different story.

My phone is not as snappy compared to plain aokp and I am using Eugene's kernel.. Any reason why this is happening? Also I don't see a huge difference between this and AOKP so so far I don't see the big deal. Please help this uninformed user as to why I don't see it. I see wallpaper choices and some new tweaks I have no clue about. Thanks

Is freegs3 touch wiz or AOSP?
-Sent from my GS3 running CM10.-
Its 4.0.4 touchwiz, OP search around and read before making your friends phone old and out dated with problems. And no the 2.3 rootkit is obsolete now a days, IMO. Just use Odin and read on the roms what's available and which has what features and let him/her decide.

If your friend likes the stock look I would recommend xquizit ROM by wild or frosty ROM by dj or infamous ROM by jamison and wicked by evil. Aosp look and feel I would recommend aokp or cm10. Its all on jellybean too.

i know i know stupid for not reading properly and following links from google...but i can still get into recovery and download so i assume i am ok once i flash a rom for the note 2? downloading jellybeer as we speak...
also, i cant seem to find an AOKP rom. i guess im missing that too by lack of reading...
Go dl a stock root injected rom and MAKE A BACKUP

If you can get into download or recovery you should be ok. Download any NOTE 2 <---! Rom and put it on your external SD Card. Just install it from TWRP/CWM from there. AOKP isn't out for our phone yet, and I haven't seen a stock version rom either.

Closest to KK is going to be Jedi or Clearom. Both are outstanding roms, with awesome support. Check them out in the development section.
Hello i have a T989 SGS2 and i want to install a great rom on it i was hoping to install the S4 rom on to it but i cant seem to find it, which is ok if its not out there yet or cant be done (As i read something saying the s4 rom cant be put on the s2) i was wondering what rom is recommended for the s2 im really looking to use the latest s-voice if i can i didnt know if it comes on a rom already or if i can install it using an apk file any tips and or help i am greatful for and want to say thank in advance.
Definitely don't flash an S4 rom! If u need Wi-Fi callng, u need one of the stock based 4.1.2 roms; jellybeast, infamous, jedi mind trick jb for example. If u don't, then many good choices.
Sent from my SGH-T989D using xda app-developers app
Check out the roms in the development thread. As far as s voice you can find the apk and install if you want. And no you can't install a s4 rom on the s2 or any other rom for that matter that is not compatible. The only other roms that work on this phone are the s2 skyrocket roms and with those you need the rotation fix for the sensors to function properly.
Best to go thru dev section & look at different features, screenshots, etc. Try different ones out & see what u like. U can always switch around.

So the 4.2.2 PACMAN v2201 wont support wifi calling? how do i know what is a stock rom and what is not?
sorry for all the questions but i gotta learn somehow right?
Pacman, or any AOSP rom does not have Wi-Fi calling. Stock will say it is based on stock jellybean in description.
Sent from my SGH-T989D using xda app-developers app
Well, I am a total newb at this as well, as I just flashed my first ROM this week. I needed wifi calling as well, and I decided on the jellybeast rom. It looked cool, but also the dev was giving alot of support in the forum, so I knew he would help me if needed. Anyway, everything went smooth by just following his directions, and I could not be happier now with my phone. That rom is super smooth and fast and very stable. Good luck.
I thought I would start a thread sharing the great work for this super Developer. I will start out with this series of screen shots and a Wallpaper that I contributed for the Rom ReVolt. If you haven't had a chance to check this one out, I would give it a whirl, then come back and post your take.
This rom is pretty quick, very smooth, with great screen transitions. There is all the bells and whistles. Halo, Pie, etc. I'm running it with Apex Pro which is my choice for launchers.
Enjoy

I usually flash everything on a new rom. Are you talking the Arrow Rom? I've tried that one as well and it is a dandy as well. Not too crazy for TouchWiz, replaced with Apex Pro, it's snappy.
Haven't had any fc's with this rom.

No arrow is nice also but the transitions on bl has me going back.. It's the rom not in his wicked folder in his rom folder.. Stock speedy tw is what it's called with this battery life I could learn to love tw again lol its basic stock no bloat but his new kernel is what made it awesome
Started this at 84% from nandroid when revolt wasn't working Impressive to me
Got it working now its like BL with a Lil Dirty unicorns liking it
