This ROM still requires CWM in order to install? Currently running Omni which comes with TWRP

You can install from either recovery. As said, you will end up with CWM because it's included in the kernel. But I believe there is an option in TWRP to inject it at the end of the flash, so you maintain it if you prefer it.

I'm late but don't think that works on the s2 as it's kernel/boot.img is basically a hybrid of a boot.img and zImage while somehow not really being either. PITA haha

I'm sure it is lol! The injection has worked for me on the S2 though (i777 version). I don't know how it does it (I'm not smart enough to explain it) but it's a little tick box just before swiping to install. If you check it, I believe it stays checked on each flash of a kernel. If it's not checked then it won't. I flashed Render's kernel through TWRP one time and still ended up with TWRP afterwards.

    WELCOME TO THE SEMI OFFICIAL CYANOGEN MOD 11.0 for i777 BI-WEEKLIES
    ABOUT:
    This rom is a Port from the Official i9100 CM 11 Nighlies from the CM Team and made to work with the SGH-I777 and SGH-S959G. Roms will be released on a weekly basis. Rom has been moved to a my dev host account :)

    THANK YOUS:
    Firstly I sincerely thank RenderBroken (use of Kernel and unofficial rom files), and mr-cook (maintainer of the unofficial I777 CM 11 rom) for providing their generous permissions to use their work. In no way I take credit of their work. Thank you and keep on 
    I would also want to thank SteveMurphy and david72262 encouraging me to share this work.
    I also thank asasione for creating this amazing guide here, made things real easy.
    I thank creepyncrawly for the i777 UCMD8 Modem (credit goes to him)
    I would also want to thank the CM Team for their amazing work and contributions to the AOSP.

    Omni isn't mine, I'm just a guy who started a thread for it. Entropy512 is the Omni-i777 bringup dev, who (I believe) was the CM maintainer.
    ^^speaking-of-which, i777 definitely seems abandoned by the CM squad, and therefore this is as official as it gets, and we appreciate having it.

    -cheers

    Well it seemed like the CM team abandoned out i777, just found out about your OMNI Rom, looks great man, thanks for that.
