let the pandas die, they dont deserve to live.
This question was asked probably more than 50 times, and my answer always have been Stock Jelly Bean. Why? Because it works and works well. Why do you want to switch to custom ROM that might have bugs and lose stability? Stock ROM performs really well and has probably the best battery life. Custom ROM is only good for more customization if you ask me.
With that being said, if you WANT to use custom ROM, try as many as you can and stick with one that you like the most. There is no best ROM. Only the ROM that fits you the most.
Hope that answered your question
:laugh: The hits just keep on comin!
if you have to ask what is the 'best rom' then you should stay stock because that shows your fear of any possible bugs or glitches. In which case rom development and beta testing is not for you, best you stay rooted stock or even just locked stock until you find there is something you need or really desire to have on your phone instead of 'rooting because its cool'.
Lollipops you are burning in flames!

All ROMs are the best! Someone in every thread will tell you that but NO ONE can tell you which is best for you.
You have to read the ROM thread and decide which one has features that suit YOUR needs

I just received my S3 a few days ago and have just now been following threads to scope the scene. I am aware that I can create a backup and play around with the ROM's myself, and I will do that actually. Before I do this I would like YOUR opinion on the top ROM and why. What I (personally) look for in a ROM is: stability, good battery time, performance/benchmarks, features, look & feel and more. Thank you very much and have a happy new year!

That's a tough question as everyone has personal opinions of different Roms and each device will also handle each ROM different in my opinion this will only turn into a this ROM is better than that ROM thread and that is not good

It is not to be a fighting thread, you simply state your opinion and why - that will be the end of it.

It depends on what you are looking for from a ROM.
If you want stable stay with stock TW
If you want latest and greatest chose AOSP/AOPK Rom.
Both are now on 4.2 which is much smoother and faster than TW.
No bloatware of course. Better battery life with custom kernels etc...
CM 10.1 is great
Tasks AOPK is better IMHO at the moment. CM is updated nightly which is a plus it minus... Task updates his ROM less frequently but it's a lot more stable at the moment...
Which ever ROM you choose if not stock READ entire OP make sure you follow it to the T and then read all posts as they tell you all about bugs and workarounds
Good luck

I always follow the instructions to a T, I want the best experience possible out of anything I flash ever. You mentioned better battery life with the Kernels, any experience with ktoonsez's or Task's kernel? Could you give me some estimate figures (example: 5 hours battery on stock, 8 on ktoonsez)
Running Illusion (CM based Rom) with the latest KT747 and no issues here, so I disagree with the guy above. I prefer stock android which is why I like roms like Task's AOKP and CM10.1 the most. It all comes down to preference.
Running Tasks AOKP 4.1.2. With lean kernel. Never crashes never any problems. Most stable custom ROM I've ever used. 4 hours screen on time, best battery I've ever gotten.
Just waiting for some updates on 4.2 then I will upgrade.

Thanks, orig dev I think was the only one I didn't click on.. Time is limited taking care of a 6month old..
This just ends up being a popularity thread.
I'm a huge AOKP/CM10 fan, but right now those ROM's don't have the one thing I need (USB-DAC) so I'm stuck with TouchWiz based ROM's.
I flashed Ultimatum ROM last week and have yet to have a single issue with it.
It's mostly stock with minor tweaks, so it SHOULD be a reliable ROM.
I then flashed a 23toggle mod with blue icons, so I at least have a good looking ROM also.
I find myself always restoring a debloated version of DG's m7 stock based rom with tasks kernel. I use rom toolbox as well to help tweak certain battery consuming apps. I usually lose 3-5% overnight on standby(7 hrs if I'm lucky and my kids let me). I think juice deffender helps me as well. Performance is pretty good but I'm a battery dork. The thread is probably back a couple pages now if you want to look at it. All of these dev's make great roms though. Try them all. Its called flashaholic and i'm a member.

I did.
I had the same question, but about the newer 4.2.1 roms. I want to upgrade, but i'm not sure which one will work best for me. Seems like Task and KTz joint is the most popular right now, but CM10 has been my daily. AS far as TW, I keep going back to Bacon Step with KTZ kernal becasue i use bluetooth alot and its my last TW backup. I want 4.2, but i need bluetooth to listen to my podcasts. What 4.2 rom has working bluetooth audio?
Is it worth switching from moar to P.A.C man? I hate stock based roms, but the battery is incredible.
I also enjoy hybrid a lot.so in your honest opinion do you think it's Mike the switch over to pacman ROM.

I agree with Ninja25. Nowadays, most ROMs (both AOSP and TW) have pretty good battery life. I personally don't mess around with kernels too much, but most people report is that the kernel makes the biggest difference. The main point that kennyglass123 was bringing up was that even though we all have the same phone, one person's setup will not work as well for another person. The best bet is to read the ROM's last 5-10 pages and see what people are reporting on battery life (common topic on each ROM's thread). Typically people will report their settings in order to get those hours out of their phones.
In summary, try out the ROM with stock kernel. If the battery life lacks luster, flash a different kernel (make sure it's compatible with your version of android, 4.1.1, 4.1.2, 4.2.1, 4.2.2, etc.) and see if it makes it better.
And please, please make a Nandroid backup before messing with anything. It's just good practice.
There are many ways to maximize your battery life on android. Turning off data or WiFi when not in use. Get betterbatterystats and figure out which app is draining the most. Turn off GPS / Bluetooth when not in use. Have your email sync to 2hours or 4 hours syncs. There are so many ways to maximize your battery life. If any of these didn't help then go ahead and use custom kernels. I never found the use of them. Stock kernel does just fine. (My opinions) hope this helps and good luck to you and your battery

The past week, I've been trying to find a rom and kernel that would increase my battery life. I use my phone for many different things. However, I gave up trying to do so and I am reverting back to the stock rom and kernel, as I have heard that it gives decent battery life and offers the best stability. The only problem I have with this is that the stock rom is no where as smooth as aosp roms. Sometimes it laggy and it loads stuff slowly. Any way I can get around this? I know it isn't a big deal, but to me it makes a big difference.
In my opinion use a custom ROM based on stock firmware.and just test.

Believe me, I've tried. I haven't tried all roms, but what I do know is that I love custom roms because they are quick, responsive, and offer tweaking and customization. However, it isn't as stable and usually for me doesn't offer good battery life.

Yes, I have tried much of what he listed in his thread.
I basically posted a new thread that relates to this topic so would a forum mod please close this thread.
Hello everyone, of course im a noob and am not an advanced user by far. My question is what do you all consider the best rom for t989 (stability, speed, size, EFFICIENCY, look, customization), and what is the best and safest way to flash them?
I haven't seen much about bootloader but interested. When I bought the phone on ebay, the previous user said he already rooted and installed previous roms like jedi mind trick. He installed a stock version of JB 4.1.2 for me. I think it's still rooted Which direction should I head? Also, what do these roms limit me to that I am already able with my current rom?

Best rom threads are frowned upon. A moderator will soon step in and say start flashing and see for yourself....then they'll close the thread.

I am on stock 4.3 and i am already out of warranty.
Thanx in advance
You will get trolled by posting this thread.
To answer your question anyway, there is no best ROM as they are all good. Whoever disagrees will probably be biased. Try them all out as it all comes down to preference.

personally, I had some reboot issues with dr.ketan's rom, so now testing Phoenix and so far so good. Cyanogen for me is also good, it depends what you want and need
I already used 3 Cusrom which have Note 3 feature -> Hurricane V.6 , DN3, and Phoenix.
In my opinion Phoenix is the best (fast, stable, and good enouh battery life) and i just flash new version Phoenix V.16.7 right now and its still best rom until now ..
:cyclops::cyclops::cyclops:
Criskelo is great, never had a stability problem with it. Fast and with Note 3 features.
Phoenix V16.2 best rom

Does anyone know of a vanilla-like rom (something other than CyanogenMod) that also has Note 3 features?
I'm a fussy guy and currently running CM cos I cannot stand TouchWiz, in particular the awful settings menus layout. But I kinda want some of the Note 3 features now...
Any suggestions?
Best is BlackBox 4.1.3....with Note3 features + S5 theme....who try it never go back to another rom

DN3 is the best in my opinion, though I do recommend trying different ROMs as they provide different experiences throughout.
OP
These types of questions aren't allowed in xda which asks for 'Best'. Try roms yourself and see what suits your requirement.
Here's quote from mod-
Mod Edit
"Best" or "Recommend" ROM/kernel threads are not allowed on XDA.
Please test these things for yourself.
This is the only way you will get an unbiased opinion,and then, you can decide for yourself if it meets YOUR needs.
Don't forget to make a nandroid before you start.
