AOKP ROM Based on Android 4.1 Jelly Bean for Samsung Galaxy S2 i9100 [How to Install]

The Android Open Kang Project (AOKP) ROM has been ported on Samsung Galaxy S2, courtesy of XDA Senior Member Rushabh25. The developer claims that the ROM is fully 100 percent pure AOKP and features CM10 Kernel. The issue relates to the network on some basedbands and modems. However, HW acceleration, camera, music, wi-fi, Bluetooth, USB, SDcard (Internal and External) have been reported as working.

The Samsung Galaxy S2 that was released in 2011 has become the company's best-seller that generated 20 million units in its first 12 months of sale, contributing to the success of Samsung. The Jelly Bean, successor to the Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS), carries new features such as smoother interface, offline voice typing, resizable app widgets, advanced voice recognition and more.
