Sprint Gnex, please? I like a pure smooth rom.

You're not going to get anything 100% stock considering you need to go to a custom ROM. Poke around the Sprint development section and see what people offer. Those ROMs are your only Jellybean option right now.

CM9 or AOKP. The links are in the development section for your respective device.

Just make a nandroid backup of your stock ROM and try as many as you want. That's what I did with my Sprint GNex a few weekends ago since I wasn't 100% sure what I was looking for. You can always restore back to stock should you not like a ROM for any reason.
I decided on AOKP b37 and Franco Milestone 3 (now running Milestone 4)--this setup has been flawless for me with no crashes or hangs at all. In addition to my stock nandroid backup I also have four backups of other ROMs as well, should I want to try out the different functionality each one offers.
Rascream and liquid smooth are probably the two best roms.
Rascream doesn't have many options but is built from aosp and is the fastest rom out there and liquid has more options and is pretty smooth.
Thanks guys

look in the bloated roms section :silly:
Just a warning to you, threads like this are no longer allowed on xda. My suggestion is do a little reading through the roms your interested in and then do a little bit of trial and error until you find what your looking for.

CNA by far imo.

I would agree with this. CNA with jellybean has been the most stable jellybean rom I have used for the galaxy nexus.
Best ROM is the ROM that suits YOU. Just try all out and stock with the one that you like. I would recommend starting with something popular, like cm or AOKP.

Most features has to be cna.

Which ROM is the best for you depends on how you use your device.
If you are using a device from Verizon the sticky in it's development section can help you get started.

[Q] What's the best VZW 4.2 Rom?

Hey guys I'm a Nexus retread. Just wondering what the VZ JB 4.2 rom is. Thanks!
Prepare yourself for the flames!
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
At least from XDA? mROM 3.2 if you want the closest stock ROM without any mods. (Which I'm personally running)
MMUzzy's Jelly Bean is my next choice, stock feel with some extra additions thrown into the mix.

This is answered the same every time it's asked. Try several and see what works best for YOU. Everyone doesn't want the same features in a ROM. Some want stock and others want customization. Read the forums look at the screen shots and flash whatever peaks your interest. If you don't like it flash something else. Just be sure you make a backup just in case something wonky happens.
As for a suggestion, I am currently on Xylon V11+Zen kernel V12.

[Q] Any stock android ROMS for T999?

Hey guys, so recently I dropped and cracked my Nexus 4 and the digitizer stopper responding, and I was forced to sell it on ebay. I love the Nexus experience, and every phone I've owned to this date (Nexus or not) has run a stock Android ROM. So I was just offered a good price for a tmobile Galaxy S3 and I was wondering if there are and stock 4.3 ROMs for the d2tmo. The newest supernexus rom (v3.0) is not supported by the d2tmo, but is by the galaxy s2 i9100 which I am now considering because of that. I was wondering if anyone could point me to a ROM that provides an almost nexus experience for the US versions of the Galaxy S3. I have searched for hours and haven't found anything yet. Cheers!

The closest that I recommend to an up to date AOSP experience as closest to stock at the moment would be Vanir.

Thanks for the recommendation, I came across that ROM when I was searching earlier. Does anyone know why there haven't been many attempts at an AOSP stock ROM for this specific version of the Galaxy S3? Is it just an unpopular concept or is the hardware of the device difficult to develop on?

Been thinking about it too. Maybe because pure ASOP isn't too far off from Vanir and LiquidSmooth..
I miss SuperNexus too lol
Edit = Also Vanir is on 4.3.1

As far as I know they're both mostly AOSP. I could be wrong though.

Be warned though, from what I understand the 4.3 roms are still buggy and some say should still be labeled as betas.

Is this only for the US variants of the GS3? Because besides liquidsmooth and vanir and a few others I haven't found many 4.3 ROMs anyways.

No idea, I don't keep up with the international model because most info you find for it is irrelevant to ours. You'll just have to read through their threads for answers about their models.

I'd say start with Galaxy S3 Resource Bible. Practically all the roms are listed there with a short summary or review.
There are 4 variations of this device in US. One for each carrier. T-Mo has a SGH-T999L as well as T999N. Those 2 have different radio antenna but rest the same. So if you check for roms on the 4 carriers sub forums, you will se plenty roms.
A lot of developers have made the roms for ATT Version SGH-I747. People realized it works just fine for T-Mo version. So these are called ATT/TMO roms. To my knowledge Slim, Illusion, Pacman and Liquid offer version 4.3 All of these are AOSP 'ish. :laugh: I personally used to use Liquid but after a lot of shopping around, moved to Slim Rom. I am told KitKat version of Slim, the SlimKat is around the corner. Their current 4.3 version has been rock solid and is out for quiet some time. If you liked the Nexus experience, you will like Slim equally.

Liquid most definitely is AOSP. Not sure but I think the other one is too. I haven't seen any kang there.

There's no reason to go lower than LK3. Mind if I ask why you want that old ICS crap ROM? Which was completely terrible on the S3.
I don't want the rom just wanted to know why it was completely abandoned

That's true but when ever I have had a phone like the atrix 2 it got jb but there is still a lot of gingerbread Roms......I was just wondering about this so thanks again
