ROM NOOB. - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

Any suggestions as to what roms I should flash for gs3?
Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2

Go through the forums and read, pick whatever looks appealing. There's a lot of choices...if you want TouchWiz check out all of the great TouchWiz ROMs (there's several Jellybean ROMs now), if you're tired of TW go to the Original section and check out the AOSP ROMs like AOKP and whatnot.

ROM OdexedBlue
Kernel Stock LJ7
Baseband LJ7
A beta JB version is in development right now, & will be out within next 2 weeks. The ICS 6.1 version of the ROM though is fully themed, beautiful, stable, and impressive in every way.

Personal favorites are aokp for aosp ROMs and JellyBomb for TW ROMs

I am currently on the "Goodness" "Jellybean edition" LJ7 rom v.4.0.0 posted by Big Toys Rock under SGS3 Android Development section and loving it!

You got to try wicked sensations!!! Had it on my epic touch now on my gs3

Aosp, I'd recommend aokp/cm10.
For Touchwiz, I'd recommend freegs3 v1.0.

If you want a working wifi tether, an AOKP rom.

I tried cm10 it was a lot of fun and better when used with NOVA launcher.
But I missed some of the basics of my TW JB.
Plus but seemed to have some problems with my Pandora it was weird.

@OP. Best ROM threads are generally frowned upon because the almost always turn into pissing matches.
Your best bet is to go to the Dev section and read a few OPs. If one of them is your style, then go to the last 10 pages or so and see about any bugs or whatnot. If you like, then read, read, read.

[Kernel][JB] Leankernel: Minimalistic Kernel for D2ATT/D2TMO (CM10) v0.14 [9/12/12]

It seems that ATT and T-Mobile versions of Galaxy S3 are very similar. There is a present from Imoseyon - LeanKernel for CM10 / AOSP that offers outstanding battery life. Thread is at:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1845836
ATT Galaxy S3 Owners confirmed that it works well.
If you like it, please hit hit "thank you" or donate to Imoseyon for the amazing work that he has done!
Idk but I wanna try it.

Finally Imo is here!! Now that lean kernel is here, there will be no other kernel on my phone. Working great on my i747.
Also working great on my ATT SIII. Waiting to see how the battery life is after a few days. So far running great. Its nice to have another option out there now.

This kernel is not likely to work with ICS, only with JB.
I am quite happy with this kernel, in the 2 days I've been using it, I haven't had a reboot since, and the battery life seems superb
I'd recommend people to try it out, only thing that I'd like to see is a 192mhz step, it's still only 384 minimum, but doesn't matter, it runs very very smooth on the latest CM10 (0823).
Cheers
Fantastic!! This oughta be stickied for excellence! I am never going back to stock.

Flashed this tonight. Works great so far. Always loved Kt kernels but phone didn't so much. Would get very bad speaker distortion if I UV to less then 950. I was able to go down the 800 on this kernel with no sound distortion so far. Finally!

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!!

A better question for op is to post what parts of the phone you use. And ask what roms would fit.
Blue tooth. Hdmi. Stylus. Note taking / picture editing (fast or not)
Etc...
I love the stock setup. Just not the bloat. I jumped on jedi. Love it tried cm10 which I love (from my old samsung infuse 4g) but it is missing too many pen features for me.
The best option honestly is to try them all. See whats missing that you cant live with out. You almost always give up something.
Sent from GN2 using XDA app
I'm with everybody.You really gotta test it out the Rom which suits you. If you like the stock looking Rom with awesome add on features and killer battery,I suggest to try the clean Rom for AT&T. You won't regret.

Yes. It does. HERE. For most of the Galaxy Note models here at XDA.
If this helped - please tell others. I've been doing the same for the Desire HD since that was released too.
I'm a little busy, so I can't get around the forums that much, plus I don't want to over spam.
My favorite Rom after trying Jedi X, Clean, Jelly Beer, and CM10 would be Jedi X if you want something as close to stock with a few added cool features. You don't lose any S Pen features and the toggles are perfect for me IMHO.

Clean rom fan here as well. Love it. Love the extra toggles and configuration of them. Teathering is enabled. Pre-rooted and deodexed. AT&T bloatware is removed, but the option to install them is there if you'd like to retain some of them.
I like clean rom you can use it as a base for more mods and make it your perfect rom, I used to love paranoid and cm10 on my note 1 but after using the note 2 cm10 and paranoid quite frankly blow balls compared to stock jellybean or a modified version like clean rom, jedi or even miui which has s pen integration
In the end its what you like so just be safe and try some out to see whats best for you
The best roms are Scotts clean roms. Ever thing works. Go to development section to find them there.

THIS! I love the CleanROM 4.0.5 so far. And the dev gave up sleeping and social life to develop multiple ROMs for the Note II in parallel. Give him some support!
Well now that iv flashed about 10 roms here is what I think. Clean ROM is nice and close to whole as your gonna get. What I'm using now and I'm really loving is Jelly bam! Yes I'm missing s note and a few other small things But what I'm able to do with this is worth it! Jelly ban is like the best of all ROMs together. I'm so in love with how I customized my note 2!

Looking for TouchWiz Based JB ROM for E4GT

Can someone recommend a TouchWiz based ROM that is Jellybean base? I assume this means it is based on stock, but looking for something tweaked/modded.

You could try going to the development section to find a decent ROM. There is a ton of them.
These threads are really frowned upon because people get into flame wars because one person likes one ROM better than another.

Its been said a million times there is no best Rom. Every phone acts different my phone may run the same Rom as you but can have different experiences; based upon settings, tweaks, kernel, modem, etc... test out the ones you think you may like.

honestly i think he meant just basically try them all
because they all act different from battery to just speed and performance
me in particular i like jellybombed due to the color sheme
but i kinda changed my own files around in his red theme so im content :good:
just have to fish and see what you like first
Sorry, no best rom threads as what is best for you may not be best for others.
