It doesn't work for me on a Galaxy Core 2 SM-G355HM, the rom installs successfully, but when I reset the phone, it ends up stuck in a bootloop with the boot animation. Is there any fix?

The author of the original custom ROM (@Ih24n) only has a SM-G355H model, so the ROM might not compatible with M/HN. You should try other custom ROMs. Sorry.

You can visit Sandroid Team Project website for custom ROMS or you can try my other modified rom from that project for lighter experience, since I debloat and customize for battery and performance.

Hello, can you port the cm12.1 made for core prime to core 2 keeping the stock kernel? Because i have used the one ih24n made and his one had bugs and wasn't stable for daily use and his sandroid kernel slows down games drastically for whatever reason and these issues exists in all the roms i got from him.

Or just a detailed guide for porting a core prime rom to core 2 keeping the stock kernel will just do a lot for me.
