FB and FC builds are sprint/Samsung ICS based rom. But before you do anything with flashing PLEASE do your research and know that if you brick your device its your own fault.
Furthermore, this is obviously a question please post in the Q&A forum next time.

The EL29 is an official Sprint release. EG30 was the release day launch. The other builds were test roms leaked from Samsung.
Official releases are generally considered stable, while leaks may contain bugs.

the lockscreen issue was roms/themes with the ICS transitions included with them. That was the root cause of problems for that. BlazerRom 4 is a good rom it has the ICS feel to it and it's pretty stable as well. I ran it for a while before I started to mess with the ICS leaks.

Man, I really don't wanna be rude or have this sound like a douche bag thing to say, but please, I am begging you, please read about this stuff. Like go through the threads until you completely understand what is happening and what the outcome of what you are doing will be. There have been about 50 hard bricks (almost completely unrecoverable damage) in the last 2 or 3 weeks. And those were done by both people experimenting and people who had a very solid grasp on what they were doing. Please, please, please research, or you will have yourself a schnazzy 500 dollar paperweight. You have been warned.
not only is there is risk of bricking your phone, but also know that ICS builds will be more risky.. most roms out there are made from ICS leaks.. so i don't think it's good idea for you to move back and forth so much.. take your time.. and just stick with the most famous ones.. like caulk.. or one click stock.. or blend.. if you like stable stuff. stick with ginger bread. also make sure you wipe all by caulk before you install anything. and try to odin most install.. and don't install too much.. i think ICS official build is coming real soon, so just wait for official, and wait for rom that is based on official.
If you want a ROM where EVERYTHING is working as it should, you are still on Gingerbread. The leaks are stable and run great but there isn't one that is 100%....yet. There are some that are very close though

Jeez,theres one in every thread. WHAT makes you think I dont read? I read,read,read and when im done reading I watch reveiws by qbking77,then his install. Then read the 900 pages per ROM thread,then read some more. If thats not enuff for ya,I also frequent acs and read some more. let me retort,there are so many "leaks" that I cant keep up. Generally I stay clear of the fb build or ics because of what ive read about how there unstable. Jus didnt kno the diff. Everyone has been helpfull thank yall very much.. Im curently running calks ROM and hav had NO FC's or wacky stuff. So I am AWARE of the dangers. But thanks anyway...
I've flashed every rom there is. I'm not bragging, just saying. Never have I bricked. I'd say El29 is the best for Gingerbread roms. A flawless rom.. Go with Calkulins E4GT rom. I like v2.8.1.. I've never had any issues with his E4GT rom. I'm on Blend ics FC06 now. Just updated a few hours ago. Like he said, read read read. I never talk bad about a rom. All these roms are great! It's a gift to be able to try them out on your device.. But me personally, I'd go with Calks E4GT rom. There are many themes on here for El29 and for Calks rom... If you want the older version its in the bottom of this post. Follow directions and you will be okay. Regardless what you flash. Also if you need anything else.. Zips.. I'll be up another hour, maybe.. Lol. Yall have a good one.
Ps: Blend ics v1.8 is bad ass!!! Have recovery now too.

Dude clearly you haven't read as much as you need to because if you did you would have none of these questions, and no problem keeping up with the ICS builds.
I just started flashing and stuff less than two months ago and I have a pretty good grasp on most of the stuff you seem to be having trouble with.
Stop whining and read more.

He was not trying to be rude. It seemed to me like he was only trying to warn you.
Anyway, if you want something that is stable, go with Blazer Rom. It is very solid. Based on Gb but once Samsung does an official release of ICS, I bet PH will update his Rom with that.

Ive added the fb27 modem. Im going to add the gunslinger kernel. Thanx. Thats wat I wanted to hear. All the other post in this thread are COMPLETLY UNHELPFUL.
Np, and remember different modems work differently on different phones even if everything else is identical. So you may want to try them all and see which one gives you the best speeds with everything working. And don't forget to update your profile /prl in settings /about phone /updates
I'm also happy with the battery life, but I just came over from an EVO 4G so that might not be saying much.

What do you guys think of the ROM situation? Favorites? Most hated? Which team deserves my support? Who are these people?
I need more posts so I can talk in the big-boy forums.
Most roms out so far are pretty good! I'm running FreeGS3 v0.0.7 and its superb. also, CyanogenMod10 is really good!
Was running CM9 nightly, then tried CM10, and am now back on stock. Mainly decided to go back to stock after the unofficial announcement that Samsung is prepping and *close* to pushing JB to these devices.

You sure about that? Yeah i wouldn't count on it. The whole "close" thing is almost certainly merely referring to the international models. Carriers still have to take their sweet time bloating it up with their stuff. I'd guess that we'd get it sometime early next year or late q4

Yep some pretty good ROMs out there.. i've been on Blazer for a while now. Gets the job done. It just gives me something to do, escape reality through technology, and some kind of social connection with this badass forum.
Sure wish i could contribute something to the development world though..
Please omit my last post, I can't stand stock ROMs for this device. CM10 = The way to go. just my opinion though
I usually run rooted stock at first then flash a ROM that has things I like in it. I used to be one of those flashaholics back when I had my Evo but not so much any more. So far, I've only flashed 2 ROMs. Rooted my stock when I first got the phone, flashed Blazer ROM 1.3 (updated to 1.6 later), and just last night I flashed AOKP.
I'm really picky when it comes to ROMs. Battery life is huge to me, but I'm a sucker for shiny things like Jelly Bean.
In the past I would stick to ROMs based on the stock ROM, as I felt they had less problems and better battery life. However, CM & JB are hard to leave once you've flashed it. JB just seems right!

Whats not working in CM10,is it daily driver yet?
I been running CM10 as well. Was on blazer Rom for awhile but it's hard going back to TouchWiz after getting a taste of jelly bean.
For me it's good enough as a daily drive but I'm on one of the older builds that had Bluetooth a2dp working although it cause in-call volume control to not work. Currently though on the latest builds, a2dp isn't working.
Other than that, it runs great for most part.
Do these Rom make for a longer battery life? If so what are your battery lifes before/after?

Hey everyone, simple question!
Will CM9 stop development now that CM10 is out? Ive ran CM10 for like 5 hours, loved it. And noticed its a lot like CM9. No new tweaks for anything. New interface (Due to jellybean) but other than that its pretty much a lot like CM9. So will they stop making CM9 builds? Like will they stop making RC's or a stable build and just focus on CM10?
Once they officially move to CM10, yes, CM9 development will stop. They will then maintain CM10 and CM7 for older devices. I'm too lazy to look, but I'm sure some Googling would find for you where they said that.

There isnt much about ceasing development for CM9 to better focus on CM10. I was hoping someone on the CM team could give me a definite answer. I mean there is so much work done for CM9 i cant see them just dropping it. Maybe after a Stable build is confirmed they will focus on CM10. There are lots of bugs in CM9 yet.

I think the bugs your referring to on 9 will eventually get worked out on 10. JB is basically a refinement of ICS.
The only reason I say this is because a few of the bugs I had in 9 are gone now that I'm using 10. Even though I have way more bugs now using 10...lol.

Bahaha! Which bugs are gone? I ran cm10 for like 5 hours and loved it. But too many bugs to keep as a dd. I really really really want the disable full screen tweak which we had in cm7. That's like all I want. Lol

You know just some little bugs, but some were very obvious like, audio & system sounds are much improved. In fact I couldn't even here system sounds at all, but now they're clear as day. On 9 my audio would mute when I received a notification while listening to music/podcasts, now it resumes like it should. My soft key lights function all the time now and don't just come in when they want to.
Now this is just my opinion, but I think since 9 & 10 are so closely related, that they'll just incorporate any remaining bugs from 9 and focus on JB. ICS will naturally benefit from all the work on JB. Again, just my opinion

It makes sense actually. Ms guru just posted on the cyanogenmod forum about how ****ty the nightlys have become. So it almost seems as if focus has gone onto cm10

I've been running 10 for a few days now and it's pretty sweet. Definitely has a ways to go, but CM9 RC2 is quite stable, so I almost think CM9 & 10 will in essence become just CM10, and that's were all the focus will be.
Personally, I'd be very happy with that. I can't believe how far cm10 has come in such a short amount of time. Team Chopsticks have done an amazing job with ICS and now JB.

i've been trying numerous CM builds in my dinc including PONS builds, condemned, and the newest nightlys. i still havent been able to really solidify that one is better than the other. anyone wanna share some experience on which might be better? specifically ive been deciding between the newest nightlys and condemned's stable build. which do you guys think is better?
I've always like Pons' kangs for the open commits. Maybe if you ask really nicely, he'll update his build. However there may not be any changes worth rebuilding for.

another big question is, do you guys all use adrenaline mod? if so, with what rom? i found that adrenaline didnt have much of an effect on condemned, whereas on the new nightlys (like the one posted today), it seems to make a big difference. is this because of the tweaks done to condemned? are they better tweaks? sorry if i sound like some college girl who knows nothing but this has been rocking my mind a bit
Which ROM is best/most stable is subjective depending on who you talk to, ask 10 different people, get 10 different answers. These types of threads aren't encouraged and hence closed but you can read and join in with the discussion in the General forum here as this was left to stop further threads being opened.

Hey guys. Sold my s2 now with the s3. So confused on whats a good stable rom. Ive searched through and cant believe how many roms there is. You guys rock. All im looking for is something smooth. When I play some games I noticed my phone lagging. Im unrooted right now. On the latest update from ota. Sorry if im coming off as a noob, but there is so many. Im out of the loop
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
Tbh all the roms available for the Gs3 are stable to do just about everything you want. But, some roms gave minor tweaks that would make choosing between them a little difficult.
You should try Freeza's rom, it has the stock feel with some theming along the way. The rom performs very well for first time gs3 rom users.
Honestly I've flashed a good number of all the ROMs and it will all depend on what your likings are. I can suggest a ROM but not say these handful are better than the rest. If you understand me.
I would say try out Goodness JB edition, Stongsteves odexed ROM, wicked, and feezas.

Best thing to do, Cruise the dev section, check out a few threads.. See what they look like, bug log, check last few pages to see if anything odd has came up.. Then flash and try.. Best thing is.. if you don't like it.. you can wipe/flash again as much as you like. The People's Rom + morphology is where i would go! (FreeGS3 is also a good one) check them out.
Also, the GS3 (LTE) has the Adreno 225, it's not going to handle high-end games as well as some of the more powerful devices. Even with another ROM.

All ROMs are stable and all are the best. No one can tell you what is best for you and your phone except you. There is no substitute for reading about the ROMs you will use to alter your $700 device.
Thanks for understanding
