How to Install Android 6 0 Marshmallow on Galaxy S2 via Cyanogenmod 13 ROM
Finally, an Android ROM developer unveils the unofficial version of Cyanogenmod 13 ROM which is based on Android 6.0 Marshmallow update, and it comes with great features, high customization and many more. However, the old Galaxy S2 smartphone stands a chance to receive the Android 6.0 Marshmallow update via Cyanogenmod 13.
Before I proceed, I want to clearly state that the ROM isn’t stable, so don’t expect your device to work perfectly after installation.

In this guide, I would walk you through the process on how to quickly install the Cyanogenmod 13 (CM13)on Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-I9100.
