Im quite happy to have a crack at building my own from github. If someone wants to point me in the right direction on how to include the earlier or other recovery, id be appreciative :)

Well as has been pointed out by me several times, and by others, there are issues with the new recovery, that didnt exist in the old one. I could understand the move if there was a 100% stable and bug free version of a KK ROM for the SGS2, but there isnt......so at the moment he point about needing to provide KK support is kind of moot for anyone who needs a stable device, which officially supports JB....im just saying.

I wasnt aware that the recovery HAD to be included with the kernel. I assumed that since you could change the recovery after you flashed the kernel (which i have done) there wasnt that dependency, hence why i was wondering if the old one couldnt be put back, to remove the issues with the new one, and people who wanted to play with KK ROMS couldnt just update the recovery themselves. I bow to those with more knowledge and if my understanding of the dependency of needing the recovery packaged with the kernel was incomplete. I still think the new recovery at least needs to be fixed. Im not the only reporting issues with it.

Anyways my post was to gain more insight, so i feel ive gotten that anyways, and guess for the time being until the new recovery is fixed or i manage to build my own ill stay marooned on the old kernel.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Hopper8:
As I've said earlier, plenty of people on this forum have decided that KitKat is more than stable enough to be their daily driver. To cater for the majority of people, there's the new recovery.

And whatever you've done to change the recovery is temporary. There's no way to have a different recovery to the kernel permanently on i9100, the kernel provides the recovery. If you can find a way around that, I'd be the first to jump on board... personally I like TWRP :) out of curiosity, what have have you done to change your recovery?

yes, boot 2nd rom man :) and it seems no SOD for now. i report if there is one..

EDIT1 : SOD after 15min of use. no wake up.

EDIT2: i can flash a rom with it FS.2 , with aroma script, on 2nd rom. fine.
[Galaxy S II Android Development] stylemessiah:
I understand the "plenty of people on this forum have decided that KitKat is more than stable enough to be their daily driver. To cater for the majority of people, there's the new recovery." thing, i do, really, but you have to realise that since that new recovery was introduced there have been issues introduced that were not there before. Trust me the minute theres a KK ROM with 0 issues (not even CM can claim this...yet?) ill be there. But unfortunately im dealing with now...and stock ROM means i dont have to spend my life in xxxxxx KK ROM's thread trying to fix issues that i didnt have before..

Im positive in that my experimentation with KK ROMS and recoveries about 2 months ago, i did have a different recovery installed that was not packaged with the kernel in troubleshooting getting those ROMS working (as well as they did), my ROM working folder still has a number of recoveries in it from that period. It wasnt a pleasant period in my Android life, that i can tell you :) Hence why i always end back on modded stock

AFAIK TRWP doesnt do dual boot? Though ive never used dual boot anyways, i like to dedicate my storage to other things :)

Think ive used TRWP probably twice, to me a bit confusing after a lifetime of CWM from the early days :)

EDIT: come to think of it, it is possible i was using a temp recovery during my KK fiddling, so you may be 100% correct that its not possible to have a permanent recovery thats different to the kernel!

I got no problem being wrong :)
[Galaxy S II Android Development] Hopper8:
No problem, you can use a stock rom. As long as it works for you, it's great [emoji106]

On i9100, the kernel and recovery are bundled together. When you flash a KK CWM, you're actually flashing a whole kernel. It's usually the CM (or very similar) kernel. The effect you see is the KK recovery though, just because not much else changes. So no, you were flashing the stock kernel & recovery as part of the rom, and then another kernel over the top, getting rid of stock kernel and stock recovery. You just didn't notice because not much changed apart from recovery.

Stock TWRP doesn't dual boot, but neither does stock CWM. Both have to be modified to dual boot. Have a look at this app for a dual boot based on TWRP : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tassadar.multirommgr I'm not saying that we'll ever have TWRP on dorimanx. All I was saying was that if you find out how to have a separate kernel and recovery, I'll jump on board and use TWRP :)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] stylemessiah:
Thanks, i have a better understanding now. Your above quote misses my edit where i admit that i was probably using a temp recovery during the KK fiddles 2 months back. so your answer reinforces both my suspicion it was temp recovery and your argument hat kernel and recovery are interdependent.

The app you linked looked pretty interesting, though i wonder if im getting geek boring in my old age as i havent even dual booted on dorimanx...sheesh years ago would have done it 5 seconds after i knew i could! :) Used to be the kind of geek who once wrote hardware drivers from scratch in the early days of Unix, would try and outdo each other with friends by seeing how many OS's we could have on one PC...at one point it was 3 windows versions, a couple of linuxes, a FreeBSD or two with BeOS thrown in for good measure, where planning your install and boot manager process was interesting, also used to work on bootable live windows projects in the early days, and now look at me :)

Ive been reduced (although i suspect temporarily) to a 3 fingered recovery mode monkey :)

Thanks for expanding my understanding though!

Ill stop my whining :)

[Galaxy S II Android Development] Hopper8:
I assume that wasn't aimed at me... No complaints here about your recovery, I love it [emoji2][emoji2] to be honest, I haven't dual booted in about 4 or 5 months, so I haven't actually tested rom swapping etc with your recovery. Every 'single rom' action I've tried has worked perfectly though :) [emoji106]

Cloning works perfect here, just did it, and I'm pretty sure swapping will work also. :D Thanks Stan for the new recovery. Loving it :p

I'm too lazy to read the whole thread as there are more than 800 pages. I'm new Galaxy SII user.

What is dorimanx's kernel for Kitkat? Can anyone give me a link?

Geez, you may not want to read 800 pages (i dont blame you), but you might want to read at least the first page, it includes all the info and links to download the kernel :)

In my "force vacations" i listening to music all day and got 0 issues, no music bug in my phone and i don't know the reason I'm not having that issue, i use poweramp with viper, no other music app installed.
