what ROM should i get if i want touchwiz? - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

i just rooted my phone and i'm ready to install a custom rom, what i basically want is a debloated with touchwiz rom, additional features/options would be better

The one you get after searching lol, but seriously just look in the Dec section not og dev, the other one and then just read. I suggest something of DjIntrigue

Rom66 is good and comes rooted
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

Try out FrostyJB, seems to be pretty popular around here

Wicked_V6 is good comes with 2 themes red & blue. Extremely stable, good battery life and when you install it gives options to install some goodies.

FrostyICS. This is the reason why.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

Seems like in general if you want good battery life go with a near-stock ICS rom, frosty is a good one but there are several to choose from. I'm currently trying serenity 1.2 LITE right now, it's pretty nice so far but I've only been using it a few hours.

After finally getting rooted yesterday (woohoo!), I flashed Stock sX v3.0. Awesome.

I would try anything from Wildchild. He mods stock ROMs both ICS and JB and they work great. I'm running the Xquizit xD v31(JB) and couldn't be happier. You can find it in the gs3 development forum.
Battery life is good and v 31 comes with all the tools you might need. You can also flash the Kitchen v 10 with it to customize your ROM.

Temporary do to someone stealing his work and it is a downer in general, besides we are on the verge of Official JB. So no point in spending so much time working on a rom that will be rebased and redone all over.

Aerovan 10.5 Kernel Vivow?

I just flashed the jelly bean cm10 rom and the associated gapps... but it claims I should also use aerovan's 10.5 kernel. I've googled all over for it but can't seem to find it. Does anyone know where to download it? Thanks!

There is also an app on the market called GooManager which allows you to get easy access to files on goo.im. aeroeven's 10.5 kernel for instance can be found under /dev/aeroeven/kernel/vivow. I find this app useful to stay on top of the latest rom/gapps/kernel releases.
In goo manager you have to go to devs and find aeroevan. For some reason he isn't in the "browse compatible ROMs" section

Aeroevan has a new kernel for those of you who want to try flashing it. Its over at goomanager if you're interested.

Really? Why do people say things like this? If you don't like it go back to stock, these are roms that are being worked on by our best devs and they are working with what they have, just be happy that we have ICS/JB at all. I for one am very happy with the alpha JB ROMs so far.

+1 - Aero JB ROM breaths new life into my old Inc2. Just LOVE it. Granted it might not for everyone but one has to be willing to accept a certain ... hmm how to say ... "imperfection" when using them. But the rewards are so much more plentiful than the shortcomings. Many thanks to all the devs working hard to making this possible.

What's your favorite custom rom for the GSIII?

I haven't had a chance to try most of them but so far I like paranoid android 2.52. I was able to get the GS3 stock icons & sounds on it and touchwiz also but I'm using the trebuchet launcher since touchwiz doesn't auto-rotate. I haven't had any problems with it & it runs pretty smooth. What's your favorite rom?

i use FrostyJB. i usually jump around from ROM to ROM but i find this ROM easy to change toggles, brightness, good battery life and everything just works well and I don't have to worry much about not being able to use my phone for something.
I think I'll try frosty pretty soon. It seems to be a pretty good stable rom. Have any of you tried the serenity rom? It's a port based of the galaxy note II. I haven't flashed it yet but it seems pretty interesting

Have been rolling PA 2.54 for ages, love it. Everything working fine, havent noticed anything thats broken or missing. Big thanks to gokussjx
I gave 2.99 a go but its still quite new so will wait a while before updating permanently and just 'check in' once in a while, so to speak, to see if its been made as stable as 2.54... Am very much lookin forward to being able to use 2.99 as my daily.
Am curious as to the difference between the roms for the GT-I9300 and SGH-T999... Does the T999 have anything the I9300 doesnt?

SGH-T989
ROM: SlimBean 3.1.0 Official
Kernel: 3.0.49-KingKangersOne.
Modem:T879UVLG3
Recovery: TWRP 2.3.1.1
- Jedi Jelly (Skyrocket) TouchWiz 4.1.2 (ptmr3)-----Haven't flashed this yet
- Jelly (Skyrocket) TouchWiz 4.1.2 LEAK (TheLastSidekick)-------Haven't flashed this yet
- Intergalactic Connectivity (Rushing)-------Very fast rom no "intergalactic connectivity" same tmobile meta redirect great reception no reboot to recovery cant really say anything else everything else is posted by dev.
- Official Slimbean 3.1 (Gmillz) ****ing amazing! super fast, lots of personalization features, sounds amazing with "pimp my rom" downloaded beats and poweramp combo (Best I've heard on any rom I've flashed) be sure to get Beats installer from play store for the icon follow the install instructions. Don't use any custom boot animations, they seem to all make the system become unresponsive right off the bat
- Unofficial Slimbean (onlychevys)-----Haven't flashed yet.
- Slim AOKP Light / Superlight (android88) ----Flashing next <3
- JediKnight 6 (Ptmr3)---Haven't flashed yet.
- Party boy v2.1 (thepartyboy)---Party boy 1 was a huge let down for me. Everything was force closing or freezing. Flashed it twice, meh. I'll wait for it to evolve.
- Lightning Zap Kernel Kang (Krazeecracker)-----Haven't flashed, not too big on ****ing with Herc's kernel, I leave that to the Dev in thier roms
- Kko Kernel KANG (TheLastSidekick)-----^^^^^^^^^
- Miui 2.12.7 (OxD34D)-----It's been a while since I've flashed Miui, not since thier earlier jb releases. Looking forward to it.
- All Star ROM v5 (Tmogalaxys2)-----Average rom, not bad or good really. everything worked had all the winning features from different devs. didn't wow me in any way though. Went back to Infamous 3.1 after a day. Btw, The Unicef Rom is the ****ing ****! I loved it, only reason I switched was to find a rom I could tether or hotspot with. (no such luck)
- LiquidSmooth Rc9 Kang (TheLastSidekick)----Haven't tried the Kang version yet.
--For fully functioning ICS rom straight out of the box, I will always go back to Infamous 3.1
--- So far, my JB preference is a toss up between SlimBean3.1 and TheUnicefRom10.5
I really enjoyed AOKP milestone1 official
OH YEAH!!! BRING BACK THE ORIGINAL CM10 BOOT ANIMATION!! CID FTW! THATS **** WAS LIKE GOING ****ING SUPER SAIYAN!! RED EYE CID IS BEAST!!

[Q] Any ROMS with original S3 look?

So I know that ROMS aren't only for looks. I know they're good for making the system run smoother and heard in some cases, it can save battery life. But unfortunately I never liked any of the looks of the ROMS. I remember having CM10 at one point and crying to get back to the stock ROM. So are there any ROMS that are better for the phone but still give you the original S3 look?
Yes, and you can find them in the Dev forum.

[ROM][4.2.2][CM10.1/PA] Jellybam

I didn't post this in the development section because I didn't make this rom and I am not affiliated with Jellybam. I just found this when searching around goo.im...
So it looks like we have a new, very cool rom for our device, which virtually no one seems to be using based on their download stats. It is a CM10.1 - Paranoid Android hybrid that has many cool features that I haven't seen on any other rom, certainly for this device. A good example would be the ability to add TW apps to this rom (see the pics).
Rather than me explaining all the features and writing this post like I own the rom (I don't!) you can check out the features here:
And you can download it here
How to Install
Like you would flash any other rom BUT it is different from other aosp roms since you don't have to install gapps - they're included
Please give it a try - it has only been downloaded 39 times for SGH-T889 so far! We don't want these people to think no one is using their rom

They vary from ROM to ROM but sometimes the camera is slow or clunky. Best to read the ROMs thread.

I don't think there are any. If there are I don't notice them anymore . I think some users miss the Touchwiz stuff though. You should have a go on this or one of the other aosp ROMs. It's a very different experience
