Should i Root and install CM10 ?

Hi
I just bought a S3 yeah \o/
Now my question, im under BELL, the phone was originaly from ROGERS. So i have all the rogers app, booo.
I know Jelly Bean is coming soon.
So my question is :
If i Root, and install CM10 by exemple, i know the the original Rom in the S3 have a lots of nice tweek and option.
if i install CM10, will i loose all those option and tweek ? Or those should already be in CM10 ????
Other scenario, if i wait for BELL to push Jellybean, will it get all the rogers app out ? And be a real bell phone after the push ?
Thanks

What tweaks are you talking about? CM10 is based on AOSP so all Touch Wiz options are gone, for example all the Motion features are going to be gone, and the camera features and settings those are also going to be gone.
CM10 has its own features, but they are not the same as TW interface.

You will lose all of the "smart" features by flashing any cm10/aokp rom. You will also have all of the bloat apps from rogers removed.
another alternative would be to root the phone, and install titanium backup and just remove the bloat apps yourself using that app. If you wanted to keep all of the "smart" features.
Either way it is very simple to restore back to stock rom so you can receive the OTA jellybean update whenever it pops off. You simply download the firmware for the Rogers device (unrooted and stock recovery) and then flash that using odin and it will bring you back to stock so you can get the jb update.
**go here and search i747m and get the rogers stock rom if you ever wish to restore so you can get the ota jb update, even though when its released you will see a pile of roms built based off of it so you could just flash one of those to get jellybean goodness**

To get rid of rogers apps without root all I did was find them in application manager and disabled them.

To the OP, you can root and not have to try one of the custom roms. If you really like some of the samsung features then try one of the roms that is based on the samsung touchwiz roms. AOSP based roms like CM10 will be missing many of the little things that samsung put in their phones.

Sounds like you want all the Samsung tweaks, so I'd go with Drewgaren's rom, found in the android development section for this device. It's a great ROM but I still prefer CM10.

As a big camera guy, I REALLY like the Samsung camera app, but the AOSP setup is a lot cleaner, faster, is better with google services and more uniform looking... Currently JB AOSP based stuff isn't perfect either as there is no GS3 JB source, I've used AOKP a lot and really like it, but with searching for a new job I really need to make sure I have a stable and bug free phone.
I have a nandroid of both and swap back and forth occasionally... I'm crazy!

Jelly bean should be out for the AT&T S3 within the next couple of weeks.

definitly flash cm10. you'll loose touchwiz features like s voice, smart stay, ect because you are flashing an aosp rom. the advantage is that the rom is alot smaller and lighter so you get a huge speed increase and better battery life. if your worried about stability i can say from experience cm10 is currently much more stable than what i got from at&t out of the box.
make a nandroid before you flash so you can always flash back and recieve the ota when it comes out.

[Q] Is there a AT&T Stock FW minus bloat w/ GW ?

Hello.
Is there a stock AT&T firmware (rooted) without all the boat ? Something like "Clean ROM" ? I'm looking for this ROM and if it would have Google Wallet working, well .. that would be great! If this doesn't exist, what would be similar ?
Thanks in advance

You can try kyan rom i think that matches what you want perfectly
If you also want a slight speed increase you can try high on android.
Hope this helps

Alternatively you can just root your stock rom, if you havent already and then use the Debloater app to remove what you dont want/need.

After rooting you can also install titanium backup and freeze or uninstall any apps you don't want

I'm using Truine II 4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwich from Alliance rom (available in the android development section)...it works flawlessly and it looks perfectly stock without the bloats...and also has awesome beats throw in, that never hurts...

Pdroid patch/zip for Tmo Note 2 Stock ROM?

Has anyone built a flashable zip file against the stock Tmobile 4.1.1 ROM to enable Pdroid use?
I used it on my old phone and would really like to get it on my Note2 as soon as possible.

It doesn't exist. The original PDroid worked with TW roms built on GB, but not on ICS and beyond. An auto-patcher is available for ICS and JB, but not for OEM skinned roms. I am running CM10 on my T889 and have PDroid working on it like a champ.

So you are using one of the nightly CM10 builds?
Last time I looked there were several things not working yet that I wasn't willing to give up.

I'm using madmack's AT&T CM10 26122012 build. Some have reported audio, BT, and lag, but not everybody is experiencing these issues.
Personally, I only experience the lag sometimes. It can be fixed by flashing the older kernel from the previous built, but that means giving up the exynos patch in the new kernel. I prefer security over minor inconvenience.
Anyway, the auto patcher has no problem working with this rom. If you decide to flash it, I can upload the patches I used from my computer.

Hmm...if I'm gonna have to go custom rom to use an existing patch I guess I might as well dump my stock rom and try patching it myself.

If someone wants to take a stab at this, TrevE just uploaded a PDroid port for the Verizon GS3 TouchWiz ROM.

More quality work from TrevE. He's the one that exposed CarrierIQ. I'd give it a try, but I can't go back to TW.

I do hope someone does take a stab at it as although I don't have any attatchment to TouchWiz, I don't think I could give up many of the s-pen functions and apps that, so far as I know, are only avalible when using TouchWiz.

It appears from the GSIII thread thst several people are working to port TrevE's TW-compatible version over to the Note2.

multiview is a note 2 and international S3 feature. there are roms in the android development section that offer a ported version of this but it is not native to our US S3 variant. to the best of my knowledge, there is not a flashable mulitview package. if there was, it probably would not be stable. cheers

i dont think we'll see that update over here in the states. we might see 4.1.2 or 4.2 sometime this year, but it wont include mulitview.
i've heard good things about GalaxyMOD and there's Synergy rom too. both of those are based on stock with some mods and such. go check them out. i stick with aosp-based roms so i cant vouch for these one's stability. just know they're probably the top 2.

In the themes and apps section, search for 4.2 camera. There is back thread that contains several different cwm flashable cameras including note 2 and the 4.2 one

[Q] Looking for Stock Rooted 4.2.2 ROM for VZW

I just got a SCH I515 for my mother and it's currently running Cyanogenmod 10.2. This is going to be her first smartphone, but she's familiar with the stock ROM on my Note 2. So, I was looking for a stock rooted 4.2.2 ROM. I've tried searching for a stock rooted ROM without any luck. I really don't need a rooted ROM for her, but I'd really like to run Rom Toolbox and Titanium Backup.
So, does anyone have a link to a stock rooted ROM? If there's one that has all the bloatware removed like the Sophisticated ROM I ran on my Note 2 that'd be ideal.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated as I have no experience with the i515.

As far as I know there are no TouchWiz ROMs for the i535 at version 4.2.2 because it never official got the update (straight from 4.1.2 to 4.3.0). Are you looking specifically for TouchWiz ROMs or are AOSP acceptable too?

I'd prefer a TouchWiz ROM as my mom is somewhat familiar with that. I'm really just looking for a debloated stock ROM.

That looks like a good ROM. Is there a way I can use the Samsung TouchWiz keyboard on an AOSP ROM? I personally hated the kb in every AOSP ROM I tried on my Note 2.
