Just bought an S3

Hi all. Just bought an S3, coming from an HTC One X. I miss my one X alot, but it didn't have the sd slot and battery that I needed. Other than that it was a great phone. Now I have an S3, great phone, but man Touchwiz is crapple in my opinion. There are some good and bad thing about it. So, I'm thinking about rooting and ROMing my phone up. I haven't been in the root an ROM business for about a year, so I feel a bit noobish again.
Any preferences on your favorite ROMs? I'm looking for something smooth and clean and not so bulky. Things are easy to get to and has some user fluidity to it.

+1 for this ROM. I came to this from a Galaxy Note. Both great but I sorta miss the bigger screen. This is a better phone though for sure. Its real easy to get this set up the way you like but I recommend you read up on Tony Starks all in one thread before getting into anything. Y'Know just to dust the cobwebs off haha. Happy flashing!!! Hmmm that sounded better in my head then it looks in text haha....

I just bought a S3 as well (first non iOS phone) and am very happy. I went with Kyan's ICS ROM since it seems more stable than the leaked JB ROMs. Works great for me, not a single issue yet (following the instructions to the letter in the noob thread and his site).

ALL are obviously smooth and clean but you need to find out for yourself.
No one knows what's best for you.

How is the One X and how is the rom support?

Hi guys, looking at buying a One X possibly tomorrow, tossing up between that and a Nexus, so I'm just wondering how the roms are for the One X, are they fully functioning? How is Jellybean? Does the camera work 100%?. I just want to make sure I'm making the right decision, I don't like sense tho haven't used it since 2.3.4, so I'm looking to rom basically as soon as I get it, and I need to know if everything is working, or if there are missing things and big features missing etc. Also how do you like your One X?

here we are again... everything is alright (for me) and official JB is near

Thanks for the reply. So everything is unlocked and relatively easy to flash roms and all that? Just don't want to make a very expensive mistake that's all

Yeah I've read about that .In your opinion are the specs worth the harder flashing compared to the nexus ?does unlocking the bootloader still boid your warranty?

Its not hard at all to be honest !
And yes its worth it, its an amazing device.
And now with the build quality being FINALLY issue free(ish) then yeah I'd go for the HOX.
The dev section is extremely active and the ROMs and support are brilliant.
Can't comment for the Nexus though as I only have the Nexus 7, but again that is active and good support.
So if I was you, I'd pick the one that looks/feels more of a phone for "you" and don't worry about unlocking etc. As it can be done on both
And on that note, I think the HOX is a much nicer looking phone.
YES IT VOIDS WARRANTY AS ALWAYS.
Hope this helps.

Depends on which Nexus you're talking about.
LG Nexus > HOX > GNexus

[Q] Just got a HCT One V

Hi! I just got a new HTC One V and I like the phone a lot, I just don't like sense much at all and I feel like it is probably slowing the phone down.
I've rooted and put custom ROMs on both my Galaxy Nexus and before that my Motorola Droid 1, and I remember on the Droid there was a great ROM that was tweaked for squeezing the most performance out of the device, while eliminating those parts of the OS that hog memory and do nothing useful, like fancy graphics, etc.
Can anyone suggest a ROM that gives snappy performance. I would give up fancy graphics and transitions for just a plain and simple clean look with fast and accurate response from the phone.
I like CM but I'm not sure that would be the right fit, considering that this isn't the fastest phone, and I would rather it be fast and work, than slow and feature rich.
Thank in advancec.

One question. From gnex to HTC one V? Quite a few of us went the other way around. Why did you take this step?

I am working in a different state than I live, and I might be here for 6 months to 1 year, and my normal service provider has poor coverage where I am at, so I got a pay as you go phone from a small local provider for the time that I am working here. I got the One V because it was on sale and I figured I could root it and get this little phone to work really well for me.

Ah that makes sense. Well you should go for Sphongle. It's the best rom for hov right now. It's in the original development section. I'm assuming you know how to flash since you got a gnex too.

I do, but it has been a while. I was reading over the instructions and they seem pretty straight forward. I did want to check to make sure that the files for flashing recovery etc listed in the sticky are the newest versions?

Also, is TWRP2 the best recovery image for CDMA One V?

Can't help you with CDMA. I had a GSM. So scrap the Sphongle part than too. Just assumed you had GSM.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

Oh, OK
I see CodeFireX for PrimioC is the next post in Original Development, maybe thats a good one.
Does anyone have any experience with a fast rom for CDMA?

Slimbean seems good. It's in the CDMA section. But for people that actually used it you'll have to wait a bit longer probably. Since the people in the USA are at work now.

Oppo N1 CM version ordered

So I just ordered the limited CM edition of the Oppo N1, to replace this Xperia Z(with its busted camera) It comes with a really cool CM cyan colored case, and some CM stickers.
Only thing is that the CM version is only available in the 16gb flavor, which i kind of regret ordering cause i prefer to have at least 32gb of space.
Also there doesnt seem to be too much activity in these fourms yet. (The phone is still really new so its to be expected) But do you guys think there will be a lot of custom ROM development for this phone? installing custom roms is another reason i bought this phone, since my current android has a locked bootloader.
Sent from my C6603 using xda app-developers app

If any of the major carriers picks up the N1, I'm sure that we'll see a lot of attention here because of having official CM.
This should being a lot of devs to the phone though, just because of how open to development the phone is. I hope to see it really take off and be made into something really great.
I don't really know about custom roms though. We already have official CM and Omnirom. Then there's Oppo's ColorOS which is pretty good already. I think all that we'll really see is modifications to those environments, but nothing really unique (I hope I'm wrong about that). Only time will tell though.

Chance of any major carrier in the US picking up the N1 are slim to none - just because US carriers SUCK.
Thanks to Oppo's cooperation with the community, there's going to be much better support from custom firmwares than with most other devices.
A lot of the activity is over on oppoforums - While I usually prefer to keep all of my work on XDA and don't bother with any other sites, oppoforums is the exception as they are the official forums of the manufacturer (they are not just random fan forums) and as Oppo has been so supportive of many of us, quite a few developers spend lots of time there. (Maxwen himself only maintains threads there these days.)

I would at least like to think that the US carriers would take an example from oppo and embrace what a lot of the devs here are doing. It would also be nice to see some of the phone makers keep their boot loaders un locked as well. But wish in one hand....

Yeah that's not going to happen. Out of the major carriers Verizon has been the ballsy one to release a developer phone with unlocked bootlooaders. They don't release devices because they don't want to have to send out warranty replacements for people who brick devices.

You forget that they only did that because they were forcing devices from OEMs that previously had never locked their devices to lock them down.
AT&T also is now forcing bootloader locking - and as a result HTC now offers the GPe and Dev Edition One units. T-Mobile is forcing Sony to lock down the T-Mobile Xperia Z (not very "uncarrier" of them...). Unlike VZW, HTC can do it directly for people on AT&T and T-Mo since both carriers are GSM - stick your SIM into an unlocked device and go, as opposed to Verizon who make it a nightmare to activate non-VZW devices.
People on GSM providers are lucky in that they can purchase unlocked devices and use them. (N1 plus Straight Talk would be a great combo.)

That is the ONLY thing that has kept me from ordering a CM edition right now-- a 32GB version paid and on the way to me.
Alas, should have haunted CM and bought when it came out.

Yah i probably should have cancelled it and got the 32gb one. DHL says my cm edition will be here tomorrow though, i cant wait

I have scaled mine on color os. It's really easy to do but I had to add the build.prop line in cause it wasn't in there to begin with. Might be on cm though. I did notice 480 changed nothing, but going down to 400 looks great.

I just got my CM N1 yesterday and so far I'm loving it. It came with two cases surprisingly, the foldover type and the CM one. I kind of want to change the dpi settings but ive never altered the build prop file before, I'll try figuring it out.
Best thing about this phone that no one really mentioned yet is that the phone doesnt get hot the way my other phones have duribg extensive gaming sessions. Love the battery life so far.

Sounds like an open thread on greed form thoughts about what people like or didn't like between the first and second generation flagships. Now if youwere trying to be obtuse about WhY the need for such a thread, it may have been easier to just type those exact words... I kind of like putting all of those comparisons in one thread for those still on the fence about sticking with LG....

No, I figured that was what it was about just thought it was a weird way of going about it. As for which one is better, the G2 would win for most people based on specs alone. However, I'd still choose the lgog for one major reason, developer support. This isn't a concern for your casual/standard smartphone user. G2 will catch up eventually I think, but I love this forum, just a bunch of great, helpful people and a ton of support.
Also, I got my lgog for $1.00 almost 6 months ago from Best Buy because I was due for an upgrade and that was the sale.
And while the G2 is impressive on the spec front, I'd still take a Nexus5 over it, again, because of developer support. The only thing I'd really miss is the camera app and extra megapixels.

Tbh, i like lg phones, but nothing is stable/fast enough on this phone besides stock. I mean, my evo shift lived wayyyy beyond it's time, and everything was super stable. The OG just doesn't handle aosp well, and although i love stock, i like having a stable version of the latest aosp too. I mean the 4.3 is more stable on my shift ( lags more, but is stable). The general point of aosp is to get better battery life and performance, and this phone ALWAYS has worse battery on aosp and performance equals stock only on certain roms for certain tasks( fyi i know its the phone not devs). If i was going to go anywhere, it would be back to HTC until LG opens up, as development has always been stellar on those phones, even before htc opened up.

The newer CM11 builds 1/28< have been near flawless for me. May want to give CM11 at least one more chance since sources for our device was updated recently. I generally find myself crawling back to CM11 whenever I try other roms for one reason or another. Previous CM11 builds gave me sleep of death but past few builds have been fine lately(or maybe it was official facebook causing it?)

Ive actually very happy with the state of cm11. But its still not (officially) finished, so it has too many bugs for me. Thats why i brought up 4.3 ie cm10.2. All 4.3 finished aosp roms are always worse than stock as far stability and performance, and the fact is, aosp is supposed to be faster. I game, use flash, watch a lot of videos and use my phone heavily, so i need battery life AND performane, not one or the other. Stock based is the only way i can get through a day.

+1 on the community.
Don't know what I'd do if the lgog died-- doesn't look like Sprint has them anymore. G2 is a little bigger not so pocket sized anymore.
Guess I'll hang onto my upgrade for awhile.

I definitely prefer the LGOG over the G2. Back when my OG broke, I almost got another one until I saw the drop in price on the OG Pro and jumped for it. The G2 has horrid battery life. My grandmother had one for a few days and returned it because she had to charge it twice a day, not including a nightly charge. Definitely missing the dev support over here, though. So many more options ROM and kernel wise. Hell, we just received our first custom kernel and it's not exactly user friendly lol. The only real difference between the OGP and OG is the screen, chipset, and a removable battery (currently using a 9300mAh ZL). Although the OGP can only handle up to 1.89GHz, same as the OG, as I see you guys now have an OC kernel. In my eyes, the E970 is still the better device.

You lost me...was your complaint against the G2 or the G Pro ? By all accconts I've heard the G2 gets amazing battery life. I'm returning the HTC today and activating the G2 so I'll be able to make comparisons tto the One the G2 and the OG after a few weeks of play. I can say, after a few weeks with the One that I will honestly miss that damned BlinkFeed.

I hear the G2 gets amazing battery life as well but the best battery stats Ive heard about on the G2 were 17-23 hours. My stock Lgog gets 24-30 hours on a full charge. However both of my roomates have an lgog and they have very different experiences, nowhere near my experience - but I tinker with it daily - they are computer illiterate. Using viper kernel, undervolting a few clicks and using wakelock detector with greenify has given my lgog unheard of battery life. Again, this is on stock however - I too have had the most stable and best performance on stock/stock based. Vanir in particular seemed smoother and faster tbh, but battery life was no where near as good. That being said, a lot of these are still in it's infancy imo and just keep getting better. The lgog is a sensitive phone from everything Ive read/experienced but the devs we have continue to do amazing and dedicated work so I just keep my backup and continue flashing/playing with new things as they come.
Coming from an HTC EVO 4G, I feel like the lgog itself is a bit unstable. It's like what Lewis Black says about general rules of health - what's good for one of us may kill another, lol - that sums up the lgog for me. But thanks to either my constant tweaking or just dumb luck, I love this damn phone so much more than my old EVO.

Yeah I was confused about whether or not you were talking about the G2 or the G pro, e980 is deifnitely the g pro - but you may have been talking about both and it came out funny - it happens. I was gonna say one thing about the G2 though - atleast they are getting official nightly 4.4 AOKP builds.
