cyanogenmod on s2

[rickson23]

Can any1 give me a guide on how to root and install cyanogenmod Rom on my galaxy s2.
Can i backup apps and continue progress from where i last stopped?
I understand the risks of rooting but battery life sucks. So please suggest an alternative to cyanogenmod for better battery life.

I'll be little harsh. Go to xda
And get one thing straight, on Android, GOTTA carry the charger or an extra battery. WHATEVER you do, install that ROM or any other, battery life would be same, if not worse.
Nuff said.

Possible! Underclock cpu for better battery.

A little search on XDA shows, you have a ROM for S2:
