New to Samsung ...which Rom should I use? - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

What's up everyone, new to this forum, have had my phone for a little bit now, and need some tethering for my HP tablet with android. So its time to root!
I was looking at some of the Rom's and thought I'd get some of your opinions.
I like stock, but battery life is important and speed, any suggestions?

You will want to get one eventually though. The roms are fairly large averaging 300 mb. I think I have most if not all of them stored on my external card

Hell im still using GB. And im absolutely positive im not the only one using GB still lol....so regardless if this isnt ICS as of yet....a port of it would be great. Besides im sure it would be more stable than current ICS state on our phones.

I'll share a link. Gimme a sec
Edit: This is gb, 1.2.0. To get anything newer I'd have to register and I don't speak the language. =P
I haven't really been through it all yet. Video recording seemed to not work and signal was a little wonky. You have to go into settings> operator and select sprint. Didnt really have time to test much else yet.

To turn data on go to System settings - Mobile Networks - Access Point Names - and click the dot for sprint.
Just to let you know this is a extremely alpha build. I don't think the camera works... might have some force closes. Not a daily driver.
Downloading now. Will report back
On JoyOS.
Buttery smooth...fast.
Camera works
Recording doesn't.
Obviously no 4g
Wifi works
USB utilities work
Status bar still has Chinese/Japan w/e language
All UI customizations work
Widgets work
Needs a few image tweaks
Looks like iPhone fresh out the box lol....
Seems pretty much stable so far...ill explore more. I'm at ihop with the lil baby trying to eat lol.

Goodbye guys.

Thanks for having me, it's been a really nice run and for the 3 days that I had semi-official JB it was amazing. Unfortunately, I lost my phone this morning and Lookout wasn't installed because of a problem with build.prop in Jedi Jelly 2 or something causing Market problems with not letting you download certain apps. Hopefully, I get a GS3 as my replacement. Anywho, thanks again guys, I wish you the best and oh, you can use anything I have done in your ROMs.
how much you pay for the s3?

The most stability definitely comes from the CM7 roms. I personally have not used them but I am almost positive that they work 100%. Another suggestion would be AndyBoneStock, I believe it was same as stock but debloated.
Thanks for the advice! I will check those out. The wife doesn't let me mess with her phone much so it needs everything to work & be solid. I have the original Incredible and a Nexus 4 to take care of my flash habit.

I think Andybonestock has all bloat, hence the name bonestock. Sense m is nice as jizzy said, and skyraider. But if you look, there are already about 50 "what's the best rom for my wife/gf that is fast and stable" threads. Check those for more suggestions.

Of course but its more than being high and mighty. The more threads made, the harder it is to find things. If there's like 30 threads asking the same thing, it gets kinda old. Because usually it means they didn't even bother trying to look first. Which is am XDA rule.

Sence 5

So I'm thinking of traiding my gf my one s for her s3 and I just got the sence 5 on it and really like it. Seeing as I'm new to the s3 I was wondering if there is a sence 5 Rom for the s3 or if that is even posable.

It'd be great if it does become good enough for a daily driver. But the track record is that no ones succeeded in doing it yet. Doesnt mean it can't be done, but I can't get my hopes up for it.
Give touchwiz a fair run though. You may be surprised.

Not the same situation at all, its like getting touchwiz on your One S, takes sooo much work with kernels and drivers just to get it to boot. Possible but most devs would rather focus on "bettering" a stable working OS.

But getting touchqiz to boot on an s3 is natural... I understand what your saying my point is that a were taking sense 5 from another phone and making it work. There other phones with sense other than HTC the I 9000 has a sense build I do believe

Best Rom ...EVERRR

Hey guys,
I have been flashing so many different roms and I love all of them. They are all so legit and the devs are frikken amazing with their work...
The Roms that I flash just slow down or something goes wrong in a few weeks and then I have to flash something else.
What is the Rom that you use that has been working for a few months? I would like EVERYTHING to work.
Thanks for your feedback!

Oh look another ill-fated "best ROM" thread in the General sub forum....
Whompasaurus + persius + crossbreeder mod + force gpu rendering and set transitions at 0.5 sec (both under developer settings). I don't remember the last time I turned off my phone, everything is just so fast and smooth all the time. Make sure to turn off data, and autosync when not using your phone, and you'll practically have the best battery life ever.

No where. These threads are not allowed. I have seen them get pretty nasty before. Try them out and find what you like. These devs put tremendous amounts of time to put these out. At least use just a little bit of your time to read the different op's and flash them yourself. Goodluck.
