I'm telling you... Imfamous 2.7.1 is the way to go. the masters behind that come out with updates very very frequently and are always on the spot with them. & kernel is damn good. i highly suggest.

Flash Darkside v7 it keeps most of touchwiz and gives you better battery life along with many awesome extras.

Y wud anyone use anything but aokpM6 atm, most likely the most stable. Till cm9 comes then they will prolly be tied. And then helllllllooooooo jelly bean!

....ahh here we go again with "that" question...the one you will neva eva eva get a straight answer to....my advice?.....READ, READ, READ, read, read, and read some more and when you feel comfortable make a choice...try it out...if you are not happy...try another...and so on and so forth...
I believe they are all great ROMs but there are some YOUR phone is gonna like more than others...that's the best answer I could give you. Luck homie.

That to me is an unaswerable question. Its like asking what undys should I wear today to your buddies. Not really a question anyone but yourself could answer lol.
Ok im teasing don't hate me lol. I guess what I mean to say is what ever rom feels that meets your needs.
I have flashed over 5 roms in the last 3 weeks and I finally found one that fits me. DS Rev.7.
I suggest to flash a few and see which one is your favorite. Or just keep flashing til you burn something out lol.
Hope this helps

I so agree with you bro.... the devs are just doing all of this for free. Which ever any of us use is just icing on their cake. To them it just means that their knowledge has paid off.
Too many choices out there to make one single decision. Carry 1-2-3-8 roms in ur card. Choose a diff one everyday of the week. And one day it will make its mark that the one your using will meet all your needs. Until then........ PLEASE!!!!! Read instructions and follow devs install guides. Their there for a reason. Don't be one of the many that post treads about how they didn't research and ended up with a paperweight.
Thats my .02¢
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app

I don't mean to sound politically incorrect here. But I don't think devs do this for us at all. If I had the talents to dev my main reason for developing would be my own personal gains in being able to improve the experience with that shiny new device I've been wanting. Then after I would upload my work for anyone else if they wish. Hopefully cash in some sweet donations if my work is THAT good. But I will never ever believe that devs do it "for us". All devs are hackers. And hackers all hack for the same reasons. Personal gain and attention. Just my 2 cents.

Goo.Im down

I just tried getting the new nightlies for jb on threads in dev section about a minute ago and they were all down, all of them. Aokp and cm10 look really nice and strentghful I think so and am switch a lot between ROMs now a days and loving it. My fav touchwiz is Jedi and I don't really know why, it must be a mysterious Jedi skill, and cm ROM will conclude this post with guru. Try them all guys. These ROMs are real blessings and you won't know until you lift it up. By the way thanx.

What do people want?

I have the lgog and im done playing with it. Question is what do you guys want? Ill list a few of my ideas and you guys comment and add ideas.
1. Cm10.1- obvious(it is being worked on so no need to comment)
2. Cm9 im in air on this one. Its ics which we have but we should get jb very very soon.
3. Latest stock pimped out with aroma. If many dont know about aroma roms, its basically a customizable rom that lets you build your own version with tons and tons of options. I will of course be adding many many many addons to the current list.
4. Skinny revisted.
5. Insert idea from you guys.

Great to have you on board! I would like any flavor of aosp, or stock that I can use the aosp or CM mail apk. I think from being on irc, that 10.1 is getting close

The thing I want most is CM 10.1. Now, my question is what about LTE? I know it was a massive effort to get wimax working with cm7/9 on the evo/evo 3d. If LTE won't be working then my next choice is a slimmed down stock rom with performance/battery mods, lightly themed. And a nice kernel to go with it

I obviously have no clue about any of this, but shouldn't you be able to take the gpu drivers from the nexus 4 since it's the same hardware? I would think that the camera and lte would be the biggest issues.

The n4 has a 3.4 kernel, we have a 3.0 kernel. So no its not as simple as using them. If we had a 3.4 kernel it could work

I can't wait for your ROMs. I know that my ROMs are small in comparison to the greatness that's going to come out of yours.
I gotta stop by XDA university and start building roms from scratch.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda premium
If the source to korean jb is close, then skip cm9 and go for option 3 (pimped out stock rom). Its faster that way right? It should keep people happy till source drops.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda premium
It would be nice to get Franco's kernel ported over from the N4. Im sure someone knows what to do.
I already made this thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2077713, can you take a look at it, any do anything I cant do pretty much, and maybe help me learn some new stuff for my rom? b-reezy is already giving me alot of help, but is extremely busy right now.
Omg joker!! I won an s3 yesterday and decided to trade it for an optimus g instead. So happy and I did! Only because you are here! You did great with the photon I'm sure you will do fantastic with this. I just hope its not as closed as the photon was.
BTW anyone want to catch me up as to what's going on? No bootloader issues hopefully... How locked down is this phone? If at all

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.

[Q] Any ROMS with original S3 look?

So I know that ROMS aren't only for looks. I know they're good for making the system run smoother and heard in some cases, it can save battery life. But unfortunately I never liked any of the looks of the ROMS. I remember having CM10 at one point and crying to get back to the stock ROM. So are there any ROMS that are better for the phone but still give you the original S3 look?
Yes, and you can find them in the Dev forum.

Cm.10

Why do all cm10 based roms have so many problems and why do they all look the same ?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
What are all the problems? There are quiet a few new ones but many very stable. Someone correct me if I am wrong'but I believe most all use cm as a base ROM. Each has there own features and functions.
I have zero issues with dastins cm, kts AOKP, snipers PAC or PAC in black, gave carbon, slim, and pretty much every other ROM a test drive no issues. Personally I keep going back to PAC love all the features .
It's not hard to flash them, see what fits your desires hardest part, well longest is downloading them and playing with settings. I find myself only staying on one for a few days at a time. Nothing wrong with the ROMs but rather enjoying playing with them and seeing what new goodies they bring to the table.
EDIT: that's kind of like saying all tw ROMs look the same they all have tons of hours of work put into them themed and tweaked to the designers liking but cuz its all tw they all look the same. Just my two cents...
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
I downloaded a couple of cm based roms and had problems with them and they all kind of look the same tw has some roms that look totally different I was not trying to bash anything I know it takes a long time to make one. I was just wondering if they had something other than cm or tw I am on tw now and I dont have any problems at all just a question thanks

They all look similar because they are AOSP, the same OS you would see on a Nexus product, and not a skinned manufacturer based ROM like Touchwiz, Sense, Blur...
