ROMS - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

What ROM's are you guys rocking? I'm thinking about switching from stock. Why are you guys rocking the ROMs your rocking? Im new to radio flashing so if someone can chime in on those too. I switched from my t-mobile/boost mobile G2X (never buying anything from LG again) to my Sprint/ Boost mobile GS3.

AOKP. Simple, with a lot of useful features. My personal favorite out of the many I've tried.

I am rocking LIH Jelly Bean leak. It suffers from overheating, but I don't use the phone that much. So I appreciate extra smoothness of operation.

I switch back n' forth between Blazer and AnaKonda.....oh, and my phone prefers LI3 baseband.

Same here, FreeGS3 was the first and last ROM I've flashed . I tend to stay away from AOKP and AOSP builds since they sometimes have jitters and instability problems... I'm picky lmao
Might switch to Warm when it's out or switch between the two..

I'm rocking the latest stock jellybean leak until some good jellybean touchwiz roms come out. Although i miss a few aosp features, i don't think I'll ever leave touchwiz. I started liking it on the S2 and i think I've fallen in love with it on the S3.

Why would you recommend a rom that's not meant for our phone(sprint)? Flashing a rom not meant for our phone can cause serious problems.

It'll be so nice to be out of the Evo forums when I get my SG3 where threads like this get shut down and locked on a regular basis

AOKP 10/11b (awesome!) CM10's M2 build (also great) but mainly FreeGS3 (GREAT rom!)

Depends on your needs or wants. I can't live with stock TouchWiz for more then a day or two. It is very sluggish and I notice way too much lag in things. I vote AOKP in a week or so. Its not 100% yet but very close too and stable for some. If you don't know what you're missing then don't worry about it, and stay stock.

It depends, I haven't seen anyone saying gs3 is sluggish at all, I certainly can't find any problems with stock besides bloatware and carrier iq, for my needs 8t works great out of the box I used to root all my phones and put new rims and what not but this time it has a lot features integrated and more and the phone has pretty good battery life so I'm set

I'd say the Frosty rom is the best. Everything works. seems like factory. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1874063
Frosty and paranoid android were both solid for me.
My vote is for ParanoidAndroid. I used it on my Nexus S and it was pretty good. Ability to adjust dpi setting is very useful as this phone can let apps produce very crisp/clear resolution settings.
Frosty for TW and a cm10 for overall stability

CM10 hands down.
I haven't had a single problem. Running 09/25 nightly right now
Been running Casper's aokp for a week now. Had two lockups on different builds but other than that no other issues, no flickering either. Running it with ktonz kernel @ 1809. Battery life is comparable to Free & Wicked's ICS roms. It's based off all the latest cm10 builds but with soo many more customization options such changing the background of your notification tray. I've heard good things about codenameandroid too.

New S3 user with some questions about ROMs out there

Hi all,
This is my first venture into Android and I must say, I these are incredible phones, and I am very excited for the future of mobiles again!
I've tested out a few ROMs so far, and while the ASOK and cyanogen mods are more my thing, the ROMS out for them are not (still buggy as a daily driver for me)
On the other hand the stock rom for this phone is awesome. All functions are working fine and I haven't had one hiccup yet.
Anyone know another ROM that is as stable and possibly in JB. If not on JB but a batter rom that I stock which is still on ICS?
Thanks for your help!

CM10 Monthly builds are also quite stable. I've been using it for 2 months now. Also if you like the look of TouchWiz and want to stay on it but remove the Samsung bloatware, you could use the debloater tool or use Titanium Backup to freeze system apps

If you go with CM10, then you'll lose the stock camera app. I miss that app. The gyroscope features and floating video will be gone.
I haven't really tried the touchwiz based roms or AOKP.

I put on the second milestone CM10 from a week ago. Seemed had some microphone issues. Also on some apps couldn't do voice note feature which was a deal breaker for me.

The CM10 nightlies are usually a little buggy. And I heard bluetooth doesn't work too often. I usually switch between CM10 and AOKP roms. Using LiquidSmooth right now just to try something different.

You don't have to wipe data if its the same rom, but I use Titanium Backup when switching to different roms.
Rom: LiquidSmooth RC9
Kernel: KT747
so far so good.
What jelly bean rom are you using? And why?
I am using cm10 stable and love it and the reason why is that I'm a newbie it is the one pour stock android I can get on my Samsung galaxy s3. I think my next phone will be the google nexus 5 when ever that comes out or a new galaxy nexus.
I'm using the latest cm10 nightly and it has some glitches here and there but it's solid for most part.
I'm using Serenity. It's a port of JB from the Galaxy Note II.
Why this one and not something else? I wanted to keep the Touchwiz feel for a while longer and I've used Serenity ROMs in the past on a different device.
Using CM10. Bass over bluetooth doesn't work so I dropped back to an older build. Even the older ones still work fine. Running leankernel. Couldn't be happier with my phone!

You did install the kernel, you just didnt know it. The kernel gets installed with the ROM. But you can flash a different kernel at some other point if you want to. I generally find the stock kernels work well for me

I'm running BlackBean with LeanKernel all apps inverted along with inverted JB 4.2 keyboard. Why? I used BlackBean on my old Nexus S, inverted stuff saves a ton of battery life on our SAMOLED screens, the combo is overall damn smooth and the kernel also helps to save that battery life while maintaining buttery smoothness. Couldn't be happier.
LiquidSmooth RC9 with leankernel. Seems to be working pretty good so far. A couple of complaints here and there (had an issue with phone crashing every time I received a call, some minor annoyances with music playback) but for the most part it's very speedy and stable.

all roms will have SOME bugs on them, even stock ones. I suggest trying a few 4.04 touchwiz based ones such as KOODO or JK, and moving from there to a AOSP based 4.1 or 4.2 rom or a 4.12 leak.
Anything Jedi
Haven't been disappointed since I bought this phone

CM10.0 Stable - I find it smoother and faster compared to Touchwiz roms.
I say go to jedi mind trick or jedi jelly. Both are extremely smooth and stable.
Cyanogenmod 10 was my first ROM and I think it's pretty easy to install and use. Recently I started using PACman and it's pretty easy to use too. Just make sure you know what you're doing before you start romming!
I liked aokp because of all of the features it offered but the battery life on my tmobile galaxy s2 was not the greatest. i'm currently rocking sons of android build 2, from the maker of the jedi roms.

Embryo 6-8, just awesome my favorite to date, another one I liked was JMT but that was ICS 4.0.3, it ran great but I felt that I downgraded since my stock ROM was 4.0.4. Others I tried were AOKP 4.2.2 M1 B5, just too AOSP looking for my taste, had random crashes, Jedi Jelly this one just stuck on booting.
So:
#1 Embryo 6-8, overclocked to 1.78 using samsung governer
#2 Stock 4.0.4 Koodo
#3 JMT
