I was using Villainrom 3.0. Switched to CM 116.

Issues I have encountered:

Position sensors not working, after reboot fine again.

Device settings are not saved. After reboot I need about 3 tries to save the keys backlight duration (always off)

After finishing a phone conversation during which I used the speaker, the speaker didn't work anymore on other apps ( movieplayer). After reboot ok again.

Occasional slowdown when playing movies from internal memory.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vaxbox:
#117 has NOT been officially released yet. the buildbot is still down. everything newer then nightly #116 (Nov 16th) is most likely a KANG. stop complaining now please. the buildbot issue has been discussed multiple times and we cant do anything else then be patient about it. remember that the CM guys are doing this in their free time. so just chill out and if you really have to use a KANG but dont come here and ask for help if you do so.

Yay CM7!

I've just got my hands on an SGS2 after coming from the OG SGS.

So, I've been running CM7 on my SGS2 for about, oh, 1 day now (total time I've had the SGS2 :P). Just wondering, I went from ~90% battery to ~86% battery overnight, 3g and sync on, so thats like 0.5% an hour battery drain.

This leads me to believe that the SGS2 doesn't have the horrible RIL 3G draining problems that the original SGS had? Is this due to better driver support from Samsung?

So what's the latest in regards to nightlies? Is buildbot irreparable?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Try it and find out, that's your best option. I ran ~10 custom Samsung ROMs, and while all good, and quicker/more fluid than stock, CM7 is noticeably quicker and smoother. Both by seat of the pants and artificial benchmarks. There were ones that I preferred, but I didn't try an awful one.

There are some quirks, mentioned in the first post. Most notably for me is the camera quality. I find the camera on CM7 to be acceptable, but the stock camera is phenomenal.

Keep this in mind:

-Stock firmwares ~450 MB

-Custom Samsung firmwares = 250-300 MB, with some exceptions, GingerMOD (<---great ROM) and a few others that are slimmed down considerably from stock.

-CM7 = 100 MB + 6 MB for the Google apps

You might miss a lot of the benefits of a lot of those extra MB, you may not, I don't with the exception of a Samsung app or two. Be patient if you experience a bug or two, there's likely a resolution. For me CM7 has been just as stable as custom Sammy ROMs.

CM7 is bar none, much smoother than a Samsung based ROM, this isn't a knock against any of them at all.

Backlight notification is built right into CM7 for GS2 menu>settings>device settings>notifications. keep in mind the backlight notifications create a wake lock when they are active so there is an effect on battery life, I recommend setting a notification timeout which is located in the same menu.

As far as flashing via rom manager, I have found results to be quite flaky. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. I personally just use the reboot to recovery found in CM7 power down options to get into recovery, then flash and never have an issue that way.
