I've been doing a lot of research regarding custom Sprint GS3 ROMs as I'm finally getting my GS3 today.
I really want something Jelly Bean based, but only if it's really not too buggy. CM10 looks sick but there still seem to be many bugs. I don't know much about AOKP.
What about non Jelly Bean? Is Blazer the best? At the very least something that gives me extra features and a longer battery life is preferred over stock. I still have to do reading regarding how to update ROMs without losing user data etc.
Anyways, can users of those three ROMs describe what problems they run into during regular daily usage? If the only bugs are minor or wouldn't affect me I don't mind using the ROM while the kinks are being worked out.
Thanks!
A true flashoholic would try them all

Haha I'm trying to NOT become a flashaholic. Back when I first got an iPod Touch (1st gen) and after that an iPhone 3G, 3GS, and 4, I was really into jailbreaking and it got pretty annoying after a while so I stopped. I just want Jelly Bean because it seems so much smoother than ICS.

Man, this GS3 is so shiny
Now I really just want to avoid having to constantly flash my ROM, since I assume doing so will wipe alll of my apps/settings. Is that the case, or is such information stored in such a way that if I flash to a new ROM my apps and media are still intact?
Also I'll look into FreeGS3 more. I'm itching for Jelly Bean, but I don't think CM10 is usable enough yet for me.
I have something to admit guys I am what you call a flashaholic. lol

Eh I think I'm going to go for FreeGS3. Can you answer my above question (as a flashaholic)? If I flash a ROM, install apps, transfer files, and change settings, what will I lose upon a new flashed ROM?
Blazer Rom 1.6
and
freegs3 Rom by team sonic
These have great battery and are very stable

If you flash freegs3 first... You won't ever need to change. It is the crack habit of rom users.

I would agree with this. I've flashed most of the ROMs out for the SG3 and i've enjoyed Blazer the most. It's simple, easy and perfect for my needs. The other ROMs i've flashed are great as well, I just don't have the desire to have a theme on my device. What's important to me is a ROM that will run smoothly w/o any latency from my multitasking on the go. Spend a day or week and flash them all, you'll find what you like.. guarantee it.

Im pretty sure if you use Titanium back and back up everything. ( apps and all data) that it will save you layout of the home screens and everything else. The only thing I dont think get back on those screens are widgets but those can be fix fast.

I've been using/setting up FreeGS3 for the past few hours and it's great. Very smooth and not too far from stock (which I'm kind of indifferent about I guess since this is my first Android phone). Once I get all of my apps/preferences up and running and my media transferred we'll see how it goes.
Thanks for input everyone! Hopefully the actual CM10 or another Jelly Bean based ROM will be available sometime over the next month.

I think blazer is best, many bugs in jb roms for now
this message brought to you by my GalaxyS3 running Phantom's Blazer v1.6
Instead of wasting space from quotes i'll just agree with all of you about the recent update with FreeGS. So far i really enjoy the ROM, Aroma and Update Me is awesome.. no more USB cable! I'm currently waiting for PH to release v1.7 for Blazer. I'm starting to become a flashaholic... Did OP find which ROM to go with or is liking so far?
OK people !
I Got My Samsung When It Came Out, I Rooted it and Activated It The Next Day.... I Am Now Tired of The Stock ROM I Have and Wanted You Guys To Point Me In The Right Direction of Some Cool Looking ROMs. If You Guys Could Post Me Some Links, I Would Greatly Appreciate It.!
Thank You!
Not to be rude or anything but all one has to do is look at some of the popular ROMs in the development sections to get a pretty good idea. The popular ones tend to always be near the top, provide great documentation and support, and provide pictures and videos to get you a great idea of the experience. Just spend 30 minutes looking over the various options, and flash a few to see which one you want to stick with. Flashing ROMs is so easy nowadays that it really is just a matter of how much time you are willing to spend playing around with them. I'm waiting for Jellybean ROMs before I really make the jump and satisfied with the performance of stock (with Nova launcher) until those JB ROMs become pretty stable and can be used everyday.
You really can't go wrong with any rom currently out. I've tried them all out and they won't disappoint. I'm currently running Freeza's rom and though it's touchwiz based, he really changed it up.

For me they have all basically been the same in regards to battery life. At a minimum I can pull 16 hrs on battery with 4+ hrs of screen on time with each rom. I'm not really into playing games on my phone so that helps. However, battery life is really user dependent because we all use/set up our devices differently...so what may end up being good for me may not be the best battery life for someone else. Definitely give each one a try though and see which works best for you
I'm definitely going to try them all, but god damn are all TW roms almost 1gb in size? I thought sense roms with big @ half the size.

Not all of them but if they're full of addons, such as FreeGS3 by Clark, then it can get big. Freeza's rom is probably the smallest coming in at about 498MB

Clark44 rom is so big because he includes Aroma installer which lets you pick and choose what mods you would like to include, therefore all mods and tweaks are downloaded. Hth

Devs should start making Bare Bone versions.Just out of Blazer 1.7 i removed over 40 uneded apk files!That slimed the rom by almost 200mb,but its still too large when cm is only 200mb.

If you want to get into AOSP roms, CM10 is running pretty smooth even though it's still in preview builds. Nav bar mods and inverted gapps look really good as well.

I don't think that's necessarily true. I've seen a few people post that FreeGS3 is noticeably smoother and less laggy than Blazer. Not knocking Blazer since it may have some other features that people prefer.
For my previous phone (EVO 3D), I tried several Sense ROMs and there was a significance difference in performance among them. Is it such a stretch to assume that a similar variance would be present in custom TW ROMs?

Well I wouldn't know as I've only tried stock, freeza's fre3 and blue odex since coming over from the og epic.. I guess my "word has it" comment came from reading http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=29890564 <-- that
I guess my point is obviously people like all these roms, or they prob wouldn't always be the top four threads all day long...
It really depends on your own preferences as they all appear to be stable and running well..
Again my advice, pick one and flash it.. if u feel like trying something else then try that too.. If somethIng goes wrong restore your backvup.. again.. the beauty of xda.

I get your point but the beauty of XDA is also in the ability to solicit opinions to make an informed decision. I don't think my question was that out of line. It's not as open ended as simply asking what the "best" ROM is.
This is my first time flashing a ROM on my (Sprint) S3 and I'm trying to decide between Wicked Sensations and AOKP Jellybean.
If anyone has tried out both of these ROMs, I have 2 questions.
1. Which runs faster/smoother?
2. Which has better battery life?
Thanks for any help.
best roms
Jellybomb 4.0 or wicked sensations

Alright. I'll check out the Jellybomb ROM.

Try each of them out. Each rom is going to offer you a different experience. Just remember to do backup and follow install instructions. I myself would rather try different experiences instead of just asking which is better. Have some fun with your device and see what all is out there.

What's the difference between CM10 and roms? Noob question I know but I'm new to this
Jellybomb
While the other guys are right that each Rom has something different offer, I highly recommend Jellybomb. He is always updating and answers questions. Some Roms get put up and then you rarely hear back if you have a prob. Honestly, it is a matter of opinion though. I tried several out for myself before finding Jellybomb. I personally did not like CM10 at all.

Id have to say JellyBomb And StrongSteve's odexed blue are the best. I also agree that CM10 isnt that great. I mean it runs amazing and all that but the gut the rom and remove all touchwiz features and all that which IMO is a waste since toucwiz does have some very good features that I use all the time. I dont see why someone would buy a phone and then put a rom on there that strips it down to the bare minimum. Also like others have said though you really need to try them out yourself and see which one you like. Another thing to keep in mind is a lot of these screenshots dont do the roms justice. You need to see them on the SuperAmoled to really appreciate it.

FTFY
CM10 isn't that great for you personally .
CM doesn't 'gut' anything, it's built from source, it's just a different experience, one that some find fantastic. Since ICS Google has really stepped up their game, it still needs a bit more setup out of the box, but it isn't nearly as daunting as it was in earlier versions. Back in the Eclair/Froyo days manufacturer's overlays like HTC's Sense were almost necessary, those days are gone. Now people can choose more freely, at least people like us who want to root . All that said, Samsung has done a really great job with Touchwiz now, it's not at all a bad experience like it used to be. Very functional, light, speedy and provides plenty of depth in settings and customization.
I know the OP doesn't want to hear it, but you really just have to try things out for yourself and see what's best for you and your needs. Take people's suggestions and find some time to try out some various ROMs for a day or two at a time.

I dispute the existence of such a thing, but suit yourself...
If I were you, and I'm reading correctly that your phone is currently running ICS, I'd start with stock Jelly Bean; you can grab a rooted stock image here. Since I'm not running a TW ROM presently, I can't really suggest what might be good beyond that; I'll take the opportunity, though, to point out the KT747 kernel (which I'm currently running) available in several different flavours for AOSP and TW alike; configured properly, it's consistently been a performance and battery life boost for me.
Realistically, it's probably best to poke around for yourself and see what works best for you; there's a lot of development effort going towards this device right now, and there's something for everyone.

ill most likely start out with stock JB TW and add the kernel for some performance then start doing some more heavy duty stuff

Any other kernels or tweaks you guys can

I know with the Note, the AOSP/AOKP roms had the whole Bravia/Beats/Thunderbolt tweaks (not that I need them or anything) just wondering if there is any like them

My fiancé hates the flashing lol
I had a bad Note where calls/text wouldn't come in.. It might of been the ROMs too, not sure. But I had promised her I wouldn't flash anymore..... I just couldn't stay away haha
Any other kernels or tweaks you guys can
point out?
I know with the Note, the AOSP/AOKP roms had the whole Bravia/Beats/Thunderbolt tweaks (not that I need them or anything) just wondering if there is any like them
Thanks once again.

Tell me how it goes! It's an extremely well built rom
Yeah, I know what you mean, haha. I used to flash like 5-10 roms a day; I just couldn't find the right one! But ultimately stuck with Task's AOKP.
There's this other rom that is very similar to a Galaxy Note II experience, if you're looking for one that is. It also has the Bravia Engine and DSP Manager (kinda like Beats). Check it out here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1951115

I liked it a lot! Really really smooth!
Sooo I got the OK from the future Mrs
So I'm running the rootbox ROM...
So far its amazing! And everything is working.. I couldn't stay away from aosp Lol
Any opinions on Liquid Smooth or have you tried it?
On the Note it was crazy fast or smooth so I'm gonna see how it does on the GS3.

I love Goodness Rom so much that i have been neglecting others. I have went as far as trying to remedy reasons why i cant leave. I found the rolletube apk and i have been searching for other roms with working mulitwindow. Is Goodness the only one? I am willing to sacrifice some things to show love to other developers. So, if i love Goodness...
What do think i should try next!?!? Thanks for your opinions for i know everyone's preferences are different but nonetheless, they are appreciated!!

You should go to the development section and read each rom description.

Well since you love Goodness idk if you'll like it because it's not TouchWiz based... but Liquid Smooth is AWESOME! Android 4.2.2 and this ROM is smooth as heck great battery life as well.
I definitely know what you mean. but in my case, it's been the FreeGS3 Rom that's been occupying my attention for months. Battery life has certainly not been up to snuff as of late in this Rom (stock kernel), so would you recommend Goodness?

Well, that looks like what i am going to have to do. I actually read them already before i posted this but i know that devs do not put all the features and goodies in the list. That is the only reason i reached out for opinions, which i normally do not. I was trying to take a short cut but I have no problem trying them all lol. Thanks for your advice! It is appreciated.

The only reason i would recommend Goodness to you is if you like being stuck on a rom for months! It has everything i have ever wanted in a rom including roms i have flashed on the OG epic lol. I been flashing for a few years now and i have not been so impressed with a rom as i have been this one! Give it a try but be forewarned!! Let me know what you think when you switch!

Couple of things: They update on their homepage more than here on xda, so if you wish to keep up with this rom..that is a good place to start. Also, did i mention multiwindow works flawlessly on here!!?? Happy Flashing!!!
I do like Goodness too! Now I think im going to try Unofficial AOKP Jellybean 4.2.2

I flashed Unofficial AOKP 4.2.2 yesterday, and coming from the M snapshot of CM10.1, I am finding it very enjoyable. I appear to have better battery life now, and I find the overall experience better.

I just tried MOAR rom....i can dig it....but after a couple of days....time to switch lol....going to give FREE a chance again. I miss multiwindow..wahhhh lol...i love my AOKP and CM series but i tend to miss the TW experience ...weird huh! O well....gotta love our options though..Team Droid for life lol
The new MOAR M6 ROM is as solid as they come. I have used everything including aosp, and keep coming g back to the MOAR ROM. Give it a try. With the Morphology built in, you can pretty much theme it a million different ways to your liking.

I have been using the Goodness rom for some time now and love it.. I have trid MOAR and wasn't that impressed. On my wife phone I have wickedsensation, because she loves the pink theme.. I do not plan on using any other than Goodness, and can't wait to see if they make a update for the MA6. I thought I downloade it already from another thread, but it was the fix for the hidden prlwrite. I guess with the new MA6 you can't write a new prl..
Ha...i feel ya. Well i actually flashed 3 different roms yesterday < Jbombed, Moar, Free> and yet i came back to Goodness. I have not seen, from my point of view, a more complete rom. I mean i have awesome batt life, blue themed, options of theme, tremendous amount of customization, fully functional mwindow, and settings galore. I just dived into the kernel world and trying out this Ktoonesz kernel. I have no idea what it is doing thus far but from what i can tell, its not harming it in any way lol. This rom to me....is exactly why we root! But the one thing i love about it is that every rom is different like everyone is different and we are blessed to have options. Different strokes for different folks! Happy Flashing!!!!
