Hey Jocala, I looked at your github, but was not able to find any non-ics device tree for our phone. Do you have one?
Sorry, I don't have any cm7-related stuff.

Peach Sunrise is the first custom ROM for the Samsung Exhibit II. It's Touchwiz-based, deodexed, zipaligned, rooted, very lightly themed and uses a custom kernel.The support files for Carrier IQ have been removed. A CWM-based Recovery is required for installation.
ADW Launcher is default. This launcher is highly themable, with many hundreds of themes (including ICS) downloadable from the Market. It also happens to be the default for CyanogenMod, so Peach is in good company
Titanium Backup, Voltage Control, CIFSManager & Quickboot (free versions) are included in the ROM.
The kernel (true of the stock kernel also) is underclock capable. Underclocking may help lengthen your battery life. Overclocking is not (yet) supported.
If you're a techie, extra features (that don't get in the way if you're not) include busybox, bash shell, init.d support, rc.local support, remount script and two modes of wireless access (ssh & adb wireless). Additionally, adb now supports root access, allowing you to do things from your command line that were not previously possible.
Additionally, the stock WallpaperChooser has been modified exposing 30 new Wallpapers from Samsung, previously hidden in the source code!

Installation
CWM Keys:
Home key = enter
Back key = back
VolUp/Dwn = highlight choice
1. Back up your data. The installation will format your data partition. I suggest Titanium Backup, available in the Market.
2. Download the peach.sunrise zip file & copy to either your internal or external sd card.
3. Install Exhibit II 4G Custom Recovery (cwm) . If you're already rooted, you may install from the command line, otherwise you may install from Samsung's Recovery. Samsung's recovery only sees the internal SD, so copy the cwm zip there. Stock recovery sometimes takes more than one try to start.
Easy way to start recovery
* Make sure the cwm zip is on your internal (non-removable) sd.
* Pull the battery from your phone.
* Connect phone to your pc via usb.
* Press & hold Volume-up
* Insert battery
Your phone will boot into recovery. Press the capacitive menu button (left bottom button) when you see the open white box and droid. Choose 'apply update from sdcard' and select the cwm zip file.
4. Start Custom Recovery (cwm): Press & hold Vol-Up, then press & hold Power. Shortly after the plain white Samsung logo appears, release both buttons. Recovery should start after the color Samsung/T-Mobile Exhibit logo.
5. Select ROMwipe. This step is required! You will have problems if you do not install Peach to a clean system.
6. Highlight install zip from sdcard, then press Home.
7. Highlight 'choose zip from sdcard/external sdcard, depending where you placed the download in step 2.
8. Highlight the peach.sunrise zip file, then press Home.
After you confirm your choice, installation should take less than three minutes.
======================
As always, you install at your own risk. No guarantees or warranties are made or given. YYMV. Caveat Emptor, etc.
This ROM does not include the *.mbn files:
If you've deleted/modified those partitions (or your ROM has) you'll need to install stock.
Feel free to use this ROM as a base for your own projects. I don't insist on credit, but I do appreciate it.

I see a lot of files there...which files are needed (and what order) to return my phone back to 'stock" condition?

jocala, I'd like to report a bug..of somewhat.
I ROMwiped, and flashed v1.2a and when I changed the screen density from stock 240 to 185 and rebooted, the phone automatically turned off wifi even if I kept on pressing to turn wifi back on. I was able to regenerate this bug when I reflashed v1.2a.
Just lettin' you know
Ok, I've fixed the problem..I first tried just flash back to stock, but that wasn't really successful (wifi error, wouldn't even let me enable it.) So what I did was format /sdcard, flash back to stock, root, cwm, flash 1.2a and changed lcd density and now it works fine
sorry for the mis-info earlier!

actually jocala, I have a question, this problem has been ticking me off since forever. Whenever I change the dpi, somehow some of the apps in the market become "incompatible" and when I change back to the stock dpi, it still says it's incompatible. What do you think might be the problem? I've faced this on rebelROM, PS 1.2a, not sure about cm9...but anyways any insight would be helpful.
I think TB has a function to reset market items. I've never used it, but you look like a pioneering type
ok I thought it was voltage control that was causing this but I guess not....I've ran Romwipe, cache, dalvik, factory data reset and flashed 1.2a over and over again..but this wifi keeps on turning off by itself....yaaarrgghhhhhh.....
also I've noticed in cwm...I get this
E:can't open /cache/recovery/log
E:can't open /cache/recovery/log
E: can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
E: can't open /cache/recovery/last_log
This is confusing...
The cwm log error messages I'll get around to fixing, sooner or later. They are harmless.
Your wifi, sorry, no idea. Didn't you say it was happening with other roms as well?
Is it just me or is it impossible to get into CWM recovery using the method in the OP (Vol up, then power, then release)? I've also tried many other combinations, but the only way I can get the phone into recovery is using adb.
I would like to be able to access recovery without using my PC and adb.
adb shell
su
dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p13
reboot recovery
