Hi I just rooted my S3 Rogers, and now I don't know what to do. I want to extend my battery life by controlling what is being used and so on. What is my next step?

Make a nandroid then flash a ROM. Stock jellybean m5 is good or if you dont mind loosing touchwiz there's plenty of aosp ROMs. Keep in mind some ROMs are not completely stable.
Make sure your model number is correct.
Then flash a custom rom provided in the development section.
Currently using slimbean 4.1.1 and i love it
Need battery control? Install SetCPU and setup some profiles to automatically underclock CPU if screen is off, etc... helps a lot more than having an app turn on and off wifi, data, etc....
No need to flash another ROM if you're not comfortable in doing so... Additionally, there are other alternatives to SetCPU, so go ahead and search from the play store...
If I want jellybean and I have an i747 Rogers Samsung Galaxy 3 which one would be best? That is stable?I looked at CM10 but apparently it needs to be more stable. What about EUROSKANK one? Jellybro or Jellyblack? Are those for my model?

I found that website great to start as following the video tutorials make it really easy. Make sure you look at the AT&T sections and watch the videos or read instructions 2 or 3 times before you actually execute anything.

Everyone's phone is different and will react differently to the same ROM. I believe aokp, slimbean, baked black bean, and liquid jelly are the most stable right now.
Hello all! I too just rooted my S3 (at&t) and was looking into flashing some ROMs. But I came across 2 threads about backing up the IMEI. is this necessary? If it is, both methods look to be a little confusing to follow.

I want jelly bean too but coming from a galaxy Nexus I can tell you that none of the roms out there are worth it. That is if you wanna keep all the cool samsung features there are the Drew Garen roms that are okay at best. But if you don't mind losing all the cool samsungness. There's the usual suspects cm10, aokp and so on. What I did is
Flash wanam light on top of stock for added features, switched my extsd with the internal for more memorie and ported Google now on ICS because svoice reeks. Removed the bloatware. I'm good for now until Rogers rolls out its own version of Jb.

The entire Touchwiz framework, for one...
Then there's the camera app, which is by far superior to just about any other camera app, Smart Stay, all the cool gestures/moves ... those are all features that you won't find in any custom ROM.
Not saying those are all "must have" features, it all depends on you, but the fact remains that they are exclusive to Samsung based ROMs

Dude you totally stole my thunder :laugh: lol.
That's it
Personally like I said before coming from the gnex. If you want the pure google experience there's plenty to choose from. But I love the new touchwiz features and I'm sticking with. The JB leaks aren't on point yet. Which is why I'll wait for rogers's rollout. Or until a good stable leak comes along.

It sounds like you need a stock based ROM. There are leaks out of the official carrier releases. I recommend Drew's milestone 5 I've used it, its pretty stable, good battery life. I think the official jb update will come out by November.

I'm on at&t. I think all you have to do yo make it work on rogers is change an APN. (See development thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1869300 )
Yes this ROM has all the Samsung features.
Make sure you back up your current setup, you might find it buggy and want to flash back.

Hey guys, is there a TW Lean Kernel for our phones?
I checked here: http://imoseyon.host4droid.com/s3/
But anything that says TW is from 2012.
Man that was difficult. I had to type "lean kernel i747" into Google, click the first link, click another link then copy and past ANOTHER link just for you.

Yeah man I know that link. I use it currently. It's for AOSP.
Since AOSP isnt TW, I was hoping for the TW version. I was browsing around and somebody mentioned that you can get lean kernel for TW, that's why I'm asking because I can't find it.

I am sure there are, give it time, It took a while before they came out on the s5.
You could probably flash the roms that are out for the s6 edge and the s6 kernel. It works for other variants.
The Sprint S5 wasn't poppin with ROMs until late June or so with the MOAR ROM kicking it off.... hoping to see similar with the S6 in about a month :fingers-crossed:

I've thought about trying this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...-axism-unity-tweaks-livewire-dual-fs-t3112799 but haven't gotten around to it yet.
I was going to attempt that also, but I read that someone tried it on Sprint and it turned into no service/data. It booted, but not usable. I saw that there is development in the Sprint Edge forum. I wonder how different the phones are. Maybe the dev there knows a little more about getting something rolling on our phone. Coming from the HTC One, I'm itching to flash something haha

You can flash the rom for the edge on the non edge with no problems. You'll just have to flash the non edge kernel afterwards.

I tried that kernel and it hung on boot. I read through some comments and it's loss like they pulled Sprint support (of course). I'll do some searching later and see if I can't pull the stock kernel from somewhere. Thanks Carr

I can't remember the name of it, it was the only custom ROM I saw in the Edge forum though. Everything worked perfect except some of the tweaks didn't do anything and the fingerprint scanner didn't work.
