Hi @Lysergic Acid
Do you have the last Gustavo's Kernel (for 5.1.1 CM12.1) with TWRP instead of CWM?

Thanks

Thanks

If TWRP is the deciding point for you, there's an updated TWRP recovery with official stock CM12.1 kernel out: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347833059
But I'm not sure if you can use it with unofficial CM!!
Hope this helps anyway...

I saw this kernel but I really like Gustavo's (with TRIM and many more goodies), well I guess I stay with CWM for now. Thanks! :good:

Hi

I guess you gotta define stable ...
There seem to be quite a lot of people using cm12.1 on the s2 on a daily basis (including me). Of this here is not stable then win xp never was. Not sure if I'd say this one is as stable as win7 because I have hardly seen win7 crash (I did experience lots of bugs in user software though).
Cm12.1 can definitely be used on the s2 without gaining too many grey hair - which is not saying that it is bug free. However it will never be buffered - according to Pareto the effort to gain that would be infinite anyways ...

Snapshot version is old. It doesn't have freezefix included and doesn't have isorec recovery support. Newest nightly is the build you should use.

For games, turn off zram or keep it to a low setting (you can do this in kernel adiutor in the virtual ram panel, just reduce swappiness or turn off it). This should give you performance overall. Lollipop still suffers from bad ram management

when i tried to read about nightlies all suffer from it and say it was built by a robot so it have errors but snaposhot made by real person so it is good
and i was using snapshot then i was locking in the settings i think i activated cm recovery i think it made the error
when i power on the phone the the title "samsung galaxy sII GT I9100" appear and then no boot animation appear after a while i connected the phone to the charger i felt the vibration then i tried to open the screen lock it was pattern so i was feeling the dots vibration and i succeed to open it all of this i done while the screen was black after this i could not do any thing
i done a factor reset from this i was disappointed from the cm roms so

if you can tell me about a stable compatable for daily use with high speed for playing games i will be thankful cm12.1 or 13 if availabe

and i am sorry but i didnt understand this "For games, turn off zram or keep it to a low setting (you can do this in kernel adiutor in the virtual ram panel, just reduce swappiness or turn off it). This should give you performance overall"

If there was an error during build process, the nightly build would not be released to the public for downloads. I would think you are trying to say more issues, however in our case, the nightlies would have less issues than the current snapshot.

Even though snapshot has 'stable' commits picked usually by a person, it can be still be 'unstable' because in our last snapshot, it didn't include the freezefix that solves a lot of freezing on the s2. It was included in a nightly 20160107 so the only way to stop the freezing was to flash to a newer nightly or flash the kernel by zeitferne or lanchon.

The problem you are trying to describe seems like a behavior before the freezefix was released. A full wipe and clean flash of a recent nightly shouldn't give issues like what you described (unless there is some other reason giving you the issues).

CM13 is not even in beta yet. It is not recommended for daily use as it still doesn't have proper support for internal storage, and still a lot of things are broken.

zram is compressed ram for your device. Since our device struggles on 1GB of RAM on lollipop, we thought that we could make things smoother by adding this 'compressed ram'. However, unaware of the drawbacks, some people thought that it would be better to disable it or tune it to be less aggressive to remove the high CPU stress it gives. So using the instructions i've given, removing zram or making it less aggressive will free up CPU usage which can be used on games. In short, less aggressive zram/no zram = better CPU performance.

then if i installed the lastest nightlies by diffault steps the phone will work better on games without alot of errors and bugs like thats in unofficial and snapshot or there is special steps i have to do

If what you mean by default steps is factory reset, wipe system, flash ROM and gapps (optional), that would be fine.

I like to install custom recovery first to remove cyanogen recovery because cyanogen recovery doesn't have everything people need. After flashing a different recovery, I usually flash the ROM after doing all necessary wipes.

Bugs in unofficial builds would most likely be fixed in official nightly builds. There may be still some minor bugs but nothing major or problematic.

i think it was better to end cm12.1 with official build and then start on cm13
last thing is there is cm roms for galaxy grand neo plus

 

[xn0live]

hi guys which version did u prefer? new nightly or snapshot?

and stock kernel or with dori kernel?

 

[Dark1Angel]

hi guys which version did u prefer? new nightly or snapshot?

latest nightly with isorec kernel and recovery

 

[xn0live]

latest nightly with isorec kernel and recovery

is it sttable and do u have lags?

 

[Dark1Angel]

is it sttable and do u have lags?

no lags at all. Right now we're at a point when it's really stable. The snapshot is by no means more stable than nightly, it just has less improvements so there's no point using it(just my opinion). Very few report small issues(read all recent posts and see). I just updated to latest nightly and It's the best so far. latest nightly+lanchon's isorec kernel+isorec twrp recovery+ pico gapps recomanded by lysergic+ trimmer app set on autotrim twice a day and it's the best you can get from lolipop on s2.
