Whichever one works better for you. There are different customizations for each ROM, but it's up to you to decide which one works better for your needs.

I keep getting stuck in a boot loop with all the updates of 10.1 Nightly, the only one I didn't get looped in was the original. I even did a full wipe and everything, help anyone?

I never have that issue even with dirty flash. Have you tried to wipe system, data, everything? I think you can try to Odin back to stock, then root it and start everything fresh. Sometimes the old files are still left over and mess up your phone.

The sad thing is, that's all I've been doing. Using Odin and keep going back to stock, update to ICS with Kies, and then hope to try and run another version of the ROM, and still no luck. It's quite frustrating. And yeah, I wiped system, data, everything. Did a full on wipe.
Also, has anyone have been getting call issues? Like you sound muzzled to your callers?

Here is solution for your issue:
1. Upgrade recovery, or switch to TWRP.
2. Clean flash rom again.
3. Flash the newest radio UVLI4, or LI1.

DO NOT do that if you are on the latest TWRP or CWM 6.+ cause Darkside super wipe was discontinued. For AOKP and CM 10.1 Nightly I just did a data/partition wipe and flash gapps.

Just asking cause I flashed the starburst rom and it boot looped my phone. I got into the main screen once but, the task bar kept force closing and it kept boot looping... Any help would be great.

Yes this is the Sprint Galaxy S2 Epic 4G Touch section.
Did you make a nandroid backup 1st? (If Yes, restore your backup) Did you go into "mounts and storage" and format "/system" before you wiped data/cache/dalvik cache?
Odin another rom.
Search for and download odin v1.85. Then download a .tar file. Where ever you find these items, you'll also find good instructions.
Then try flashing starburst again.

Yes, I did make a nand and got back to it, the starburst rom section told me to flash through cwm. But, it didn't work. I odined a tar last night, I'm fine now, but, how should I go about flashing again? Yes, I did wipe.
I'm running the oc'd zedomax or however thats spelled.

Did you format /system prior to flashing Starburst? That'll cause bootloops if you failed to do so.

I would suggest 5.0.2.3, or 5.0.2.6 Also...make sure you format cache/dalvik/data/system at least 3X each. If that doesn't work, then try redownloading the ROM. Might've gotten a borked download.

Use this: LoStkernel or this: CWM
But I'm willing to bet that you either didn't format system in the mounts and storage menu or it didn't take when you tried. I would retry StarBurst again first, making sure to Format System Under Mounts and Storage and making sure it succeeds. Then you won't have to worry about any of the other stuff.
Yeah, CWM can be quirky

Great news indeed! I am a complete noob when it comes to flashing kernels, or anything for that matter. I have successfully flashed this kernel on the Tmobilestock ROM. Now things do seem to be a alot smoother, not sure if it is a placebo, but what are some things that I should do to ensure I take advantage of the new kernel?
What system settings should I be aware of, or make changes to ensure maximum performance?
Is this ROM overclocked to 1.75ghz by default? Right now benchmarks are telling me its clocked at 1.566ghz.
Any tips or tricks are appreciated, thanks! :victory::laugh::victory:

Thanks for the suggestion on CPU Tuner, I will give that app a swirl.
One really weird thing that I have noticed since flashing the kernel on Tmobile stock, is that calls are not working. I cannot hear anything, trying to toggle the speaker results in severe lag that hangs for a few seconds to a minute. Any ideas? I would post directly in the development thread, but I have not met the post count to do so. If someone can move this there, then by all means.

When you upgraded to ics did you do a full wipe? And did you wipe partition and dalvik cache before you installed the kernel?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
I did a factory reset and data wipe after having successfully upgraded to ICS. When I flashed to the Dark Side Venom kernel earlier, I wiped Dalvik cache but not the partition.
Streamline #6 on AOKP .40. Nice and smooth thus far.

I do have a backup created using ROM manager. I may give the re-flashing route a try. It seems like another member jbreeze228 in the development thread that is experiencing the exact issue, but it doesn't look his post have been addressed yet. So I'll stay tuned with that.

Looks like there is a Super Wipe, and a Cache Wipe. Which of the two should I use?
1. Place on ROOT of your SD card.
2. Boot into Recovery Mode
3. Do a NAND BACKUP!!!
4. Flash DARKSIDE.SUPER.WIPE
5. Stay inside recovery
6. Flash desired ROM.
7. After flashing is complete, Reboot...
8. Done!
So lemme see if I understand the instructions correctly. I should restore to my original backup. Boot into recovery and flash the wipe file. Then while still in recovery, I should flash the kernel? Am I understanding the steps correctly?
Pardon me if an answer has already been posted, but I could not find a thread related to the Galaxy S2. Is there a method to downgrade from Jellybean to Ice Cream Sandwich?
I have a rooted phone if that makes any difference.

No, I didnt and by looking at the thread in the development section, no one else has either. I would suggest you start over from EL29 or EL26, from what I have read, it could be a number of things that causes stuff like this, bad DL, wipes not wiping, or dirty flash. Put your steps you did to flash the rom, and someone might be able to get more specific.
Could be hardware. Best is to go back to a stock build and see if it happens. If it does bring the phone into sprint

Have any one of you tried the AxisM ROM, it was previously called GalaxyMOD I believe. I usually don't flash Universal ROMs, the only one I tried before this was Hyperdrive which I kinda liked but wanted to wait until the bugs are ironed out but I did give this ROM a try because I saw one of our dev (the awesome grue) on the team members list (team synergy).
The issue is the ROM doesn't boot at all, it's not stuck at samsung logo or anything, I see the samsung logo and it goes blank, nothing happens. Please let me know if any of you guys got it to work. Would be awesome if Grue can make it work for us since he is on their team as well.
Here is the link to the ROM.

Downloaded KT747 and now back to flashing again. I have a slimbean backedup anyway. Will report back if I get it working.
On a sidenote, if I do get it booting but like the other user said have FC's, what other good kernels for TW do we have as alternatives? Agat & Lean Kernel 2.9?
I guess I could try freeza's optimized stock kernel as well.
EDIT: Ok, Flashed AxisM zip, Selected Sprint option and the dev picks option for apps, unchecked reboot option, flashed KT747 latest (4-11 I think) and it booted fine. No FC's until now. Phone and data working, data is a bit slow than usual though. Haven't tested anything esle but it looks pretty sweet.

It's not an at&t only ROM. It's a universal ROM, like Hyperdrive that you can see on our forums. And I've been running it since yesterday morning and it's running pretty well. There is an another one called Synergy ROM, so 3 roms AFAIK that you can flash on any carrier S3.
