  There are a frighteningly large number of distinct pieces of hardware that live inside a case marked "Galaxy S2". Literally there are three whole families of SoC's represented: Exynos 4, Snapdragon S3 and OMAP4; plus all the variant radios carriers demand. Some of these have have working builds, some don't. My use of "virutally all" may have been hyperbole, I don't have numbers handy of what works and doesn't. I'm not saying that this is a clean process. It's not (and frankly can't be). I was simply saying that if you were going to rule out purchasing a phone you would otherwise prefer, it would be a better idea to do some research first. And to be clear: I have a Galaxy Nexus in my pocket. But I wouldn't fear a OEM phone if I really wanted it.
