[SPRINT] [ROM] Custom/Stock vs Original Development

What do you guys think of the ROM situation? Favorites? Most hated? Which team deserves my support? Who are these people?
I need more posts so I can talk in the big-boy forums.

Most roms out so far are pretty good! I'm running FreeGS3 v0.0.7 and its superb. also, CyanogenMod10 is really good!

Was running CM9 nightly, then tried CM10, and am now back on stock. Mainly decided to go back to stock after the unofficial announcement that Samsung is prepping and *close* to pushing JB to these devices.

You sure about that? Yeah i wouldn't count on it. The whole "close" thing is almost certainly merely referring to the international models. Carriers still have to take their sweet time bloating it up with their stuff. I'd guess that we'd get it sometime early next year or late q4

Yep some pretty good ROMs out there.. i've been on Blazer for a while now. Gets the job done. It just gives me something to do, escape reality through technology, and some kind of social connection with this badass forum.
Sure wish i could contribute something to the development world though..

Please omit my last post, I can't stand stock ROMs for this device. CM10 = The way to go. just my opinion though

I usually run rooted stock at first then flash a ROM that has things I like in it. I used to be one of those flashaholics back when I had my Evo but not so much any more. So far, I've only flashed 2 ROMs. Rooted my stock when I first got the phone, flashed Blazer ROM 1.3 (updated to 1.6 later), and just last night I flashed AOKP.
I'm really picky when it comes to ROMs. Battery life is huge to me, but I'm a sucker for shiny things like Jelly Bean.

In the past I would stick to ROMs based on the stock ROM, as I felt they had less problems and better battery life. However, CM & JB are hard to leave once you've flashed it. JB just seems right!

Whats not working in CM10,is it daily driver yet?

I been running CM10 as well. Was on blazer Rom for awhile but it's hard going back to TouchWiz after getting a taste of jelly bean.
For me it's good enough as a daily drive but I'm on one of the older builds that had Bluetooth a2dp working although it cause in-call volume control to not work. Currently though on the latest builds, a2dp isn't working.
Other than that, it runs great for most part.

Do these Rom make for a longer battery life? If so what are your battery lifes before/after?

Stable ics official rom.

Hello there peeps I need some help figuring this out. I I don't own this device I am just updating it for a friend who is stuck on gb.. I flashed a ics rom but it seems to be a Lil buggy even tho its apparently stock.. One of the blazer roms. What I'd like to know is which ics official stock rom should I flash not a custom rom but just pure Samsung stock ics? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

This link is to all stock links. Leaks and officials. You'll get tons of opinions, but i think this its what you asked for. I would recommend Fi03 or Fi25 if your friend is really wanting ics.

I'm running Kobridge's FI25 ROM. It's pretty stock-ish, fluid and overall great. Battery is nice as well. I'd give that a look and try.

Just go to settings and about phone and update firmware or android. The latest official ics build is fh13 so if he is on gb you will have to update to ff18 then fh13 or you can download a one click and use Odin to update. Depends if you want it rooted or not. If he is rooted now and has removed stock apps you will have to use a bone click option or revert back to stock first. You can look up qbking77 on YouTube and every custom rom he pretty much has a video for along with how to get the stock ota updates. To get the stock ics look after updating to the ics build go to Sprint id to change to the stock look or download a launcher like nova launcher or apex or whatever you prefer. If you want a stock ics rom with root you would want an aosp rom like cyanogenmod beta 1. Go to the original development thread.

Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

I have had no issues at all with the ics ota updates but a lot of people have claimed issues. I did a factory reset and wiped cache after the updates and never had issues with battery or blue tooth or whatever else people complain about. I would say let her try ics for a week and see for herself. You can always go back to gb if she doesn't like it. I love cm9 beta 1 I just have some data issues sometimes but it's still being developed so I'm sure the minor issues the rom has are being worked on as we speak. There is also tons of leaks for ics the latest released leak is fi25. And I think it's supposed to be the last leak for ics until jelly bean is leaked.

FH13 which is the latest official works great for me.
Tappin' Typin'

FH13 the best so far.
Check this thread [Oficial OTA Repository] . I post all official OTA links. Download them all in order them copy paste them in SD card. Go to recovery and flash them in the right order.
Note: You must be pure stock and use stock recovery.
Instructions just in case:
1. You don't need to rename zip.
2. Copy to SD Card not Internal.
3. You most be full stock. (no root, no custom kernel etc.) these are official OTA zips directly from Google servers.

I put my woman on FF18 Stock rooted and changed build prop to say its Fi03 to avoid the update nag, added some lite placebo tweaks and she has zero complaints at all.
She actually used 3 times the bandwidth as me last month lmao and her battery is a rock thanks to screenstate, WiFi_idle_ms and a small a sysctl.conf..

I'm guessing no love because this phone still doesn't have a proper running vanilla ICS or JB experience for it. I understand where he's coming from. With the Nexus S 4G I had, obviously a Google phone, they'd have various ICS and JB roms running smoothly. But for this device, Samsung/Sprint is holding it back from its potential.

I just can't say enough good things about Re-Calked ROM. Battery life and smoothness are top notch and there are tons of mods for theming purposes, including a transparent status bar mod.

Offically, FH13 is the way to go.
Leak-wise I think I'm going to try this combo next:
FI03 ROM
FI03 Repacked Kernel
FI25 Modem
...and see what happens. Love the signal on FI25 but hate that so many other features were either removed or changed. Also hate Connection Optimizer on FI03 but I can just leave it off.

Atrue we are a little bit behind and they treat us like step children, I'll give you that.... but have you not met the devs around here?
I think the dev and user support shown in E4gt's slice of paradise far outweighs official support at arms length
( and I've tried three jb builds, all of them daily-able)
I do see your point though.. a little official love couldn't hurt.

What I meant by no love is that ics is something I've been running so smooth since my HTC Sensation. The epic 4G touch has the same processor as the gti9100 yet I feel like sprint or Samsung is holding back. All the s2s I see are on gingerbread with people complaining about bugs and issues in official builds I find that unacceptable. But I don't have this device so idk how bad it is. I had a great ics experience both Sammy and aosp on international s2. The sprint variant seems like a killer device that just needs killer software to go with It.
Ps. thanks for everyone's input.. Putbuee on the latest ics leak odexed version with matching kernel and modem and the phone is flying!

What garwynn says is correct.
My g/f likes to stay on official releases, so she's on FH13. It was a HUGE improvement over the piece of crap that was FF18, so I would recommend that one.
Myself, I'm using stock rooted FI03 with stock FI03 kernel and FI03 modem. I'm pretty happy with this setup, and I probably won't be jumping to another ROM until JB is more stabilized.

Why do people make statements like that? " Huge piece of ..."etc blah..?
I used several ff18 builds with zero issues .. my woman's been on it for 2 months with zero issues as well.
So it was bad how exactly?
Not trying to be an ass . I've just never understood these blanket statements about an entire build being bad vs the possibility of one flash being bad...
Edit: for clarity, I'm not saying i dislike fh or fi builds either... I'm just saying I havent had a major issue with any build since fc27(I think)

I'm using stock rooted FI25 with the Agat 5.4 kernel and the Pegasusq governor. Works great for me! There are a lot of great custom ROMs out with CM9 being one of my favs but the bugs make me stick with stock.

[Q] Which ROM for my girlfriend?

My girlfriend and I are in a long distance relationship, so I can't really help her when she has problems on her phone. I am currently with her and I've previously had AOKP and CyanogenMod on her phone. While they generally work perfectly fine, there may be issues that I can't easily diagnose from afar. What Touchwiz (non-AOSP) ROM would you guys recommend for long-term stability, optimal battery life, and features. Unlike me, she does enjoy Touchwiz....so using a Touchwiz ROM isn't a problem.
Suggestions?

My first suggestion would be to try several to see which one she likes. If the time isn't available, then I would suggest taking a look at Triune 2. Basically, a debloated stock rom with some custom tweaks. It's what both my wife and I run, though hers isn't as personalized as mine. And if it's important, google wallet works with it.

Try miui, its like android meets iphone and sweet themes. Its probably not the most stable choice though, despite how much it might appeal to the novice android user.
Aokp is very stable, I'm on slimbean right now and its been 100% stable so far. I haven't been on a tw ics ROM since the first few hours I got my gs3 back in july. Drews stock tw jellybean is pretty stable might want to give that a try too.

I've actually been quite partial to DrewGaren's ROM's.... currently Serenity 1.2 based on an AT&T JellyBean ROM for the Galaxy Note 2, and JellyBean747, based on the latest JellyBean leaks/official builds from other carriers.
As for custom ICS TouchWiz ROM's.... haven't really used one in a while since i'm hooked on JB... but i did quite like kyanROM.

I really want her to have JB as she currently has it and surely doesn't want to go back to ICS. I'll do a nandroid and have her try out the DrewGaren ROMs first and see if she likes those. Thanks!

Right now there's now perfectly stable stock touchwiz jb ROMs for our s3 yet as far as I'm aware, and may venture to say the aosp ROMs are more stable and have less issues. I may be wrong as I havent tried too many tw jb roms but have read quite a bit. Ariel 2.10 is a rock solid tw ics build and the upgrade to jb is minor enough I can't see why your girlfriend would mine it until a better tw jb ROM is out.

What's the first rom you would throw on your new E4GT

Currently waiting on the UPS man to deliver our two E4GT's. I have the samsung driver's installed and ready to go. I am leaning towards using Odin to restore a rooted FK23. But I have made alot of consideration's on some of these other packaged rom's. In the past I would just install a cyanogenmod variant and never look back till there was a update. But reading around here, CM does not seem all that popular? Maybe because the stock based rom's are so good?
What would you choose? FK23 is getting alot of good reports. Maybe something based off of it?

Jellyverse stable nicely themed great developers good battery whatelse can I say.

+1 Def Jellyverse
Lucy Lu...will you have my children?

Honestly? Stock JB for me.
(ducks for cover)

fk23 offers a lot of new features that those of us that had the phone for over a year aren't used to so its something new. CM10 b2 is running great if you're into cm. King Kang is also running great. To get started out I'm gonna recommend you Odin el29 cwm, then flash cm10 over that

Lightweight v.05..easy.
Awesome installation process, and this ROM runs without any hiccups for me.

Fk23

Re-calked. So many mods. You will get used to flashing stuff after flashing those mods

Any FK23. Stock Rooted is real slick and stable.

I would personally flash a custom ics rom. Get used to flashing roms and mods on the e4gt then choose your rom. I personally have only flashed Mijjz roms because I follow Team Nocturnal, but everyone has their own opinion. Right now I'm sticking with stock jb until either Rw and Mijj put out a jb rom or source drops

Honestly though, it's all up to taste. When I'm not on CM10, I miss theme chooser. When I'm on CM10, I miss the leaked JB UI and new features. This is why I will die happy if we every get multiboot.

Well I like the idea that everything works as it should on fk23. I was really liking cm10 for a while but the erratic mms feature was a buzz kill. The whole gps lock issue is a drag expecially since I was flashing between roms so much.

Hello. You are asking the question we all have soon after getting our phone.
I will get to the bread and butter for you. Please note, this is from my experience only. I can't speak for everybody because as I am sure you know, NO ....NO.... two users are the same.
So, I have had the E4GT for around 5 months now. Love the phone....hate the battery life, but for this kind of power...I expected a weak battery. So firstly....get the extended battery!
Roms....Hahahahaha...so many. I have tried a lot. My phone came with ICS installed. Within a week I moved to CM9 beta 1....not bad....then to black rom....then to jellyverse....than went to a gingerbread build CM....than found " the blu kuban" Man I love the kuban. Tried the Ginger bread build and ICS build too. I AM back on the ICS build because GB build kept acting like I had a slide out keyboard. But man the kuban is awesome. It allows you to pick what you want installed upon first installation. Sweet...so sweet. It has tons of tweaks built in. It allows you to tweak everything from charging to boot animations inside the settings. I am telling you....try what you want, but once you get comfortable with the kuban you will always come back to it. I just left the new leaked jellybean Fk23 2 days ago...returning to the blue kuban. Fk23 was way to lagging for me...typing had delays, Apps hesitated to open and close....just way to slow.
Here is the link I use for roms.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_II/SPH-D710/ROMs
It is a bit old, but a great start for you. Also...
Qbking77 has tons of YouTube walkthroughs and review videos posted for the E4GT. I hope this helps you get started, have fun....find what best suits you...but do try the Blu Kuban.....it is worth a spin.
Goodluck. Happy rom'ing....FOLLOW DIRECTIONS CLOSELY!
P.S. your comment about CM roms....it is because our phone has yet to get a stable release of CM :-\ something about how long it took for the cyanogenmod team to get the source code for the phone. I AM no Dev..and it has been a while since I read the article about it...but please note...there is NO stable CM for the E4GT as of yet. CM 10 is on beta 2 and CM9 is on beta 1.

I always liked the theory behind the Kuban, but it's never agreed with my phone. I've had more boot loops on that Rom just by using the Rom updater.

Flash mine!!! Lol... shameless self promotion.
It's nothing special just stock FK23 that's been deodexed rooted and has busybox. And a ton of mods by tdunham.
Either that or Jellyverse which is based on mine and themed. Shadow has some serious talent. Just make sure to do some reading.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium

depends on your mode. If your thinking TW, then i'd go with mattix's FK23. Otherwise the PAC MAN rom (aokp+cm10+paranoid android) is pretty nifty thanks to KB!

I have had the reboot on the rom updater.... never a boot loop. I did have a boot loop on my first install....but did a factory reset inside recovery...and it fired up fine after that. For the Kuban you HAVE to use the format all zip....and also begin with flashing a safe recovery. I Followed QBKING77's video for the rouge recovery install...than flashed the kuban from there. Also...the thread for the kuban is huge....all sorts of problems addressed inside that thread. All my questions have been answered just reading through them all or searching the thread for a certain topic.
Still...no one rom is a perfect fit for everybody. I recommend starting by putting a safe recovery on the phone first and foremost...than begin doing rom flashes from there. Test and tune....then try another.
I have tried almost all the roms in the link I posted earlier....I like different things in each one...but the Kuban keeps calling me back. I hate lag mostly....and I get that on a lot of roms. Only time the kuban lags.....for me.....is on certain governors....like saveged Zen....FOR ME.
Just be sure to get on a safe recovery first, than read and follow any roms directions closely....than all is safe after that.
Also Qbking has a how to unbrick your phone video that will help you a ton. It will require a file download.....Hahahahaha, save.....SAVE that file. It will come in handy with this phone due to the crazy flash/brick bug that seems to be inside it.
Why can't Samsung use a safe flashing setup? They have to try to be intelligent...or seem so at least.
Once again, goodluck...I hope we have helped you. I have seen my share of problems so feel free to PM me for any help. I will be happy to help if I can, or help you search for an answer.
Also....the fk23...yea, it has some great new features....but I would wait for a custom, sped up build of it. On start up after install I had 300 megs of ram free...on the kuban I have 500+, cm9 500+, cm 10 450+.....fk23 down too 200+ within an hour of use :-\
Peeps will say that free ram does not mean faster...but to me....knowing what little I do know about android....it means a ton when it comes to the E4GT.

I flash a different Rom seems like every day
So far the ones I keep going back to are any of the FK23 roms or CNA I love the customization of aosp based roms but FK23 I get awesome battery life compared to aosp. The kuban is insanely stable and great battery life.
I used to be a huge fan of cm on previous devices then I got a taste of aokp left cm all together but felt something was missing then I tried cna which has in my opinion the best of aokp and cm.

I second this one. Jedi Jelly 6 is very smooth. My only issue with it is that it's based off of a leaked AT&T ROM.
I believe ptmr3 (the dev) is working on a new version that is based on the recent 4.1.2 release specifically for the SGH-T989.

I switched to an AOSP based ROM and I'm never looking back despite wifi calling being a cool feature, but I never used it. Anyway, I've been using 2.2 Slimstars which was pretty great. The updates seemed to be a little unstable like the camera not working. Is the new one, 4.12 pretty much fixed? And are there many changes with 4.2.2? I may try PACman. How's that stability wise? Stability and speed (I just want it to work without waiting you know?) are priorities.

ptmr3's Jedi Mind Trick JB 2.1 is by the the fastest and smoothest and glitch free rom out there
I have tried almost all roms of the ICS and JB flavour
personally I do not like non touchwiz roms
and all CM and AOKP 4.2 roms do not support MHL output or Bluetooth mouse properly
everything seems to work on JMT except for OP known issues
