What Rom Should I get?

I've been on Calkulins EGT.ROM from the get go and I loved that he was always on top of his ROM. Now that he has bailed this ROM has gotten old and outdated. I want some suggestions on what Rom I should jump to next. Right now I'm on Calkulin's E4GT v3.0 EL29 using modem FB21. Last few weeks I've been trying out different modems but none seem to work out for me. I'm in Central California if that makes a difference. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Also if this still is the best ROM available can you tell me what modem is working the best for you? I've tried so many I forgot which one was giving me the best battery life and connection.

Stay on whatever modem works best for you man, it varies area to area phone to phone.... insofar as roms I'm loving sbrissens aosp jelly bean, which is extremely stable for an alpha and a great daily driver... should you want something that's 100% more or less though I'd look into either blue Kuban or goodness, both of which are ics touchwiz based like caulks ROM...

I'm not much of a cell phone freak. I just hate that the GPS sometimes doesn't work and the battery seems to drain faster than it did before.

GPS is what it is and its just a matter of trying different modems till you figure out what works best for you... insofar as battery how old is your phone? Might be time for a new one, does it spin freely when you set it on a flat surface? And that being the case I would for sure just go with blue kuban or goodness those are probably the most stable easiest ICS ROMs we have...

Have you looked at CynogenMod10 (CM10)? I highly recommend it. It is in Alpha 5.1 right now and I haven't had ANY issues with coverage. It's super smooth, and it's jellybean.

I suggest the blu Kuban
Battery is great ,looks good..a lot of things to change to your liking
And the connection is good..he has some speed tweaks of I'm not mistaken
* I'm on the fh13 modem if that helps any
-Sent From My Blu Kuban Tapatalk Like A Boss

There is a stock rooted FH13 floating around that is nice, very normal/basic ICS. I just don't use TW.

+1 for CM10 (I also jumped from Calk's ROMs). It's very smooth and very stable as of v5.1. Minor glitches here and there with audio volume, but other than that all major issues have been resolved.

I think my phone hates the CM10JB alpha for some reason ...GPS never works and battery life is horrible, I use some tweaked stock Rom.

Which ROM besides stock gingerbread has the longest battery life?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app

CM9 is my favorite right now for a lot of reasons. Although I'll definitely be moving on to CM10 once things have been ironed out a bit more.

Battery life is subjective based on use habits and what apps you have installed. However, blu kuban has served me very well, especially since the "battery life issue" (according to Samsung/Sprint) update of fh13.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA

Team Venum's cRaCk_StOcK is based on FH23, no probs with GPS, modem good, battery great, and it still offers that nice TW look if you want. It's a great blend of a few tweaks on a solid stock look.

As you see everyone here has different opinions of what ROM you should flash because we all have different likes or needs when it comes to what we put on our phones. I've flashed almost every ROM that's available for our phone, but I always come back to CM9.

I just picked up one of these phones to replace an original epic 4g (thing was great but after being dropped 5007 times it finally quit). I was using CM9 for a while on it but the GPS seemed flakey from time to time. As far as on this model, does GPS work well with CM9? The main things I need the phone to do without fail is make phone calls and GPS.
With that said, would CM9 be the suggested route or another basic rom?

[POLL] What is your daily driver?

Hey guys, just take a poll as to what your daily driver is. Which ROM you have running the most. You can only pick one. Thanks for your time!

Lol. For the past week, I've been flashing a ROM a day. I wish there was that perfect ROM like Juggernaut 2.3.6 . It had AOKP with MIUI addons and a load of other stuff

Yep I got version 7 with faux 11 underclocked with the voltage app and running smooooth. Battery life is great too.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app

Ive tried all the major ones, and for ICS based ROMS Jedi Mind Trick v7/v8 and TDJ's ROMS have been the best. That said, after a few days on ANY ICS ROM Ive tried I start getting anomalies that make it frustrating, so for now Im back on Darkside Digital Warfare 2.7. That seems to be my go-to ROM and I have never had one issue with it. I sacrifice a little snappiness, but for me its flawless and bulletproof.

AOKP fan here. I had the milestone 6 for the longest time.
Just trying out JMT since last week until AOKP-JB becomes stable.

Jedi Mind trick is my favorite but I was loving clones and drones when I was on it both are fast and stable

I've been using the latest CM10 nightlies by EricWill ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1852105 ) updating almost daily and its been great. Got a few SODs but its mostly been in the morning before I head out and a quick restart as I get in my car is sufficient. Aside from that small bug it's been great with me

Darkside Evolution 3v8! Easily the Rom of the year. Version 4 isn't a slouch either.

Telus ICS Stock Rom for now
I've tried 4-5 roms since i bought my phone 4 weeks ago... and i'm always coming back to my nand backup of my stock rom because there'S always small things i'm not happy with every roms i tried...
Jedi knight 2... One of the best UI with SIII addons but got Launcher freezes 5-6 times a day for 30 seconds...
Clones and Drones... AccuWeather bugs on Lockscreen... ask in Celcius but got temp in Farenheit even with the small C besides and always show wrong city...
Koodo v.4.0.4 v3... this one was almost perfect for me but have poor data speed with Fido on 4G
Jedi mind Tricks V8 ... poor battery life...
But gonna continue to try others and coming back if there's new version of what i already tried...
thanks to all devs for the good work...

Best 4.1.1 ROM?

Hey, i was wondering which is the most stable Jellybean rom?
If possible, could you please provide the bugs that it has?
Also, i read that most of the jb roms have rr and sod, but im not exactly sure what either of those are.
If someone could tell me what those two terms are, i would be extremely grateful.

I've been using JB AOKP as my daily device and its been pretty good. Even a week ago, i've been getting RR (random reboots) but the latest build, from what I experience is pretty good.

+1 to JB AOKP. I'm running nightlies, with only 1 SoD (sleep of death - goes to sleep, doesn't wake up) shortly after my flash today. JB is sweet. go for it!

CM10 is my personal favorite! Not a big fan of AOKP. The camera does work and some random reboots do happen! I enjoy messing around with it but fact is there is no JellyBean ROM out that is STABLE!

TV-out (via MHL A/V link)

I guess I spoke too soon. I've had 2 SoDs since I commented. I'm back on CM9 now, sick of all the SoDs and RRs on the JB ROMs. I'm just going to hold off until there's something more stable.

I might have used it except the notification bar was unusably vandalized and unreadable with animated gif... I could have set fastboot=1 or replaced bootanimation, but i liked 99% of the SystemUI. Everything else about it was wonderful.. kernel, optimized, lots of good stuff (well boot animation a little over the top) but SystemUI was unusable like that.

When I first got my s3 I waited about a month before I rooted. I got used to the stock experience. Couldn't believe how clunky and slow the stock experience on the s3 was after I finally got it rooted! The first ROM I flashed was Casper's 9/20 AOKP build. Definitely butter for sure!
Just flashed the newly released build 3 AOKP...kernel is included. I've tried almost every other ROM and I keep going back to AOKP. CM10 is about the only one I haven't tried yet.

Do believe slim is also not aokp

There are some older TW roms running GB and ICS might wanna check those out. I dont know about battery life but I would believe a close to stock GB rom would get better battery then fully fledged TW UX jelly bean rom but thats just me. Id experiment a bit because im sure everyones battery status is different depending on the manufacturing quality or how the battery was used. Good luck! :good:

I always found tw ICS stock koodo was best battery for me. Mines always ****ty though, 14 hours max a day with only 1 hr screen usage
