I am purchasing this weekend and would like to put the most stable CM10 Rom on my new Samsung Galaxy III 4G LTE. All suggestions appreciated. Please let me know why you think the ROM you stated is the best.
Thanks.
Right now I am using paranoidKangdroid 1.20. I use it as my daily driver because it has CM10, aokp, and paranoid android, all in one. Very stable too. Definitely the most customizable in my opinion.

Understand though, that with AOSP (CM10) based rom, there are still problems. One which is killing me, you cannot make a proper video due to sound being almost dead, barely any getting through.
I would say to download both touchwiz and AOSP types of roms and to see for yourself which one fits you best. Because of that one problem, I had to compromise and stick to TouchWiz until CM10 (AOKP) find the solution.
I am new to android and started flashing about two months ago. I was flashing all sorts of AOSP ROMs. That was until I tried Task650 and Ktoonsez AOKP 4.1.2 JB. The ROM is unbelievably stable and performs great. Tons of customization available and incredible dev support.

I too use this ROM. I researched for weeks and decided on this. Please read through the thread and you will see some issues people are having and decide how much those things matter to you. I have no issues with it for what I use my phone for.

@OP Although it is good to get opinions, when drastically modifying your $700 device there is no substitute for reading the ROM thread before installing. At a minimum I highly recommend the first page and the last 10 pages of any ROM you are considering.
Thank you for your cooperation

Hello, I was wondering if I could get some advice on a rom. I am new to the s3 and I am looking for a rom that is AOSP, has great battery life, runs jelly bean, little to no bugs, and is being actively developed. I have looked to several roms but there seems to be so many. There one rom that I seen might be good was a rom called super nexus but it looks like it is only on the i9300 not the i747. Any advice would be great and I appreciate your personal opinion. Thank you
Do not flash an I9300 rom on any variant of the I747. It will create a hard brick, as in you will have a Galaxy S3 paperweight.
AOSP ROMs aren't abundant with Jelly Bean yet.
I would recommend the AOKP Rom in Original Development. I'm running on the latest nightly and it is awesome. No bugs, super fast, and I get great battery life.
I would recommend codefirex jellybean nightlies. Fast, stable, and updated regularly.

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!

Well heads up if your talking d g stock tw jb rom im on it and yes its good but read through some of the few pages myself and a few members are talking about..

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.

Where she live? If were close ill give here her a hand
I kid I kid. Wannalite is a ICS stable TW rom. Either that or MIUI. But its still experiancing some growing pains and not quite 100 percent stable.
I'm running JB TW from TeamInsomnia with Ktoonz kernel with absolutely no issues.
Turn your gf into a flashaholic!! Lol

Just left my galaxy d2vzw and flashed an unofficial 10.1 it broke data to where I had 1x to nothing.. I flashed every ROM even Odin back stock root66 reprovision my sim. even got a new one and still no no more than 1xrtt to nothing..
Last time I was on my nexus I loved gummy and AOKP.
Any suggestions?
4.1, 4.1.2, 4.2.1
Which ROMs solid for each?
how broken is 4.2.1?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
its a nexus device, no need to hack anything to get 4.2.1 running, so 4.2.1 isnt broken at all. every rom listed in the development section is safe. you can even compile 4.2.1 from aosp yourself and run it if you wanted to. recommendations.. try out a bunch, find whats good for you. there are no bad roms.
Xenon HD is stable and fast..xylon is great as well..both 4.2.1

see, the problem with these kinds of threads start with this statement. best rom there is according to whom? i dont even think its close to the best rom. in fact, to me its rather bloated. best rom is subjective. every person has different needs, so every person has their own ideas to what best is. there is no best rom, theres only the best rom for you.
Stock ROM, most solid and safe, can't go wrong.
all the 4.2.1 roms i have tried are stable.. so try them and stick with the one YOU like
My girlfriend has been using a few custom roms that I've flashed for her on her nexus, but shes been having multiple SOD's and random restarts and other stability issues on 4.2.1 roms (tried a few). I would like to know the most stable rom/kernel combination that you have used in the past, 4.1.2 is preferable if the stability is better. Just basic rom features is all she needs, but stability and speed is most important, I feel pretty bad for giving her roms with some issues that I haven't experienced on my sgs3.
Thank you all for the help
If you are looking for stability and simplicity go with mmuzzy French vanilla rom. Its smooth and stable. If u want stable with mods go with carbon rom. Its fast smooth and good on battery life.

Thank you, I'm going to try flashing MMuzzy toro tonight and see how that works out
stock
yeah get her on 4.1.2 before she complains that you "broke" her phone lol. anyways i only use 4.1.2 roms right now, and i can tell you that jb sourcery 3.1 and liquid smooth 2.0 RC9 have both been straight shooters with great performance and not a single SOD in either of them
I just flashed MMuzzy's French Vanilla rom and my word is this thing awesome. Almost indistinuishable from stock. I wish I had a friend who had the GSM Gnex so we could compare features.
If you are looking for a few more features without losing stability I strongly recommend Nexus Evolution. The current version is from Jan 4 and a new version is likely to come out today or at least very soon

Thanks for all the responses I will be flashing a few of these tonight
If you want a daily driver, use stock (deodexed and rooted for customization)
Xenon is definitely my favorite.

I wouldn't recommend bugless. BuglessPete hasn't updated it since Nov, so it is still 4.1.1.
I would recommend stock, rooted, deodexed. If you want features, then MMuzzy has been quite stable for me.
I just flashed Carbon V1 over XenonHD and it's running pretty smoothly. A lot of the 4.2 and mostly all of the 4.1 ROMs are pretty stable overall.
Hi guys,
So its been awhile since I've browsed these forums so sorry to bug you about this but we're giving my wife's s3 to the mother in law. I've had it rooted and running tasks aokp since day 1. Its on an older possibly 4.1 version?
Anyway I want her to have a stable reliable experience with her first smart phone so I would like recommendations on which ROMs to look at. Leaning towards tw for her sake so its not to crazy like aokp etc... Thanks

I would suggest dandroid or s3rx. Dandroid is based from s3rx just aosp themed and heavily debloated. You may have to search a little bit for 4.1.2 of those but they are the most stable for me. Btw they both are stable on 4.3. Been running them as my daily driver for months and I used dandroid before on 4.1.2 which was also very reliable. S3rx for 4.1.2 gives you more of a choice in whats in it with aroma so that may work better for you.
I'm fine updating no sense in staying at 4.1 I was just stating that.. Thanks will look into those

i747z is a good ROM if you can find the 4.1.2 version - the 4.3 version is buggy, and the developer isn't much help for fixing it.
XDA does not allow best rom threads because in short there is no best rom.
