i747M - Best ROM and Kernel

Hey guys,
What is the best rom/kernel combo you have found? I am currently on slimbean with kT kernel. Looking for what has worked for others :good:

+1
I'm very interested to know myself. I just got the sgs3 coming from a galaxy nexus running aokp. I love the new touchwiz which is ,I find, leaps and bounds beyond the sgs2's version of touchwiz. I actually want to keep it. I want a rom that gives me more without taking anything away. What I mean is a juiced up touchwiz with more customization. No nova or apex. Lte, avcrp and nfc that actually work. landscape mode phablet mode etc. Every rom has one or the other not all.

at this point it really comes down to personal opinion. all roms are heavily supported and seem to be very stable. it depends on what your looking for.
slim is a great rom very smooth and light (only ~80mb in size!) but i've found that i get more random fc's on slimbean than i do on cm10/aokp. so im sticking with cm10 & kt747 kernel for now. i always check out new slimbean updates though, when it gets a little more stable ill probably stay there.
i haven't had much experience with leak based stock jb roms. when the official at&t jb update comes out ill probably stick with stock jb because i do enjoy touchwiz but right now it seems that aosp is better with stability and battery life.
one thing i am sure of is every rom i flash, i flash ktoonsez kt747 kernel. during heavy use i switch to from ondemand to ktoonservative governer and that will really save you battery life.

i think it does come down to personal preference, but what I'm using is the latest Cyanogenmod 10 nightly with Ktoonsez latest kernel (9/23) and it's underclocked and undervolted. Great performance and even better battery life.

Serenity is based on the note 2 software. Milestone is based on the tmobile s3 leak. I tried both and went back to an ics rom (ariel). It just seems more stable and has more of the features that i like.

I really like Serenity v1.1 located at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1869300.
There are a few bugs here and there, but nothing that would prevent daily use in my opinion. If you are after super stable then you should probably stick with a stock-based ROM of which there are plenty. If you want to try out JB then I'd give Serenity a shot.

I use kt747 with stock rogers rom, (4.1.1 JB). Aside from a couple of issues with charging for while powered off, everything is working well.

Jedi ROM 2.0.
I've had 0 issues with it, great battery life, buttery smooth (using Nova launcher) and everything works flawlessly.

You probably want to go with cm9 ics, but you'll learn just to flash for your liking. You'll get the hang of it and be all wondering what the ROM you're reading about is like lol

Koodo V3 has been the best for me as it is pretty much as close to stock ICS as you are going to get. People also rave about Jedi Knight and Jedi Mind Trick although I have not personally tried the latter two. All three are from the same great developer and I don't think you can go wrong with any of them.

I agree with the above... Koodo V3 is great. Might have something to do with being in Canada but I'm not sure.

I can't go wrong with AOKP Milestone 6 7/15. Highly customizable and rock solid. No issues at all.

Darkside Evolution ICS v7

Use the Jedi mind trick ROM. Its smooth and acts like a sgs3. Perfect for every day use. Also try the aokp build 2 jb ROM. Its better and faster. More customizable.
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium

New to the Herc here and I went with JMT v9. Running smooth, no complaints and the dev is a good guy.

Try Darthstalker I like a lot more than the Jedi roms and it the rom with the best battery life that I've used.

^^^^ this.
And besides, most of the available Roms are equally stable / very soon to be stable.
Do a good flash, making sure to wait a while right after flashing, and all will be good.

You need Jedi Jelly 6. Its a Samsung Touchwiz ROM. I have had nothing but smooth performance.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda premium

I've really been enjoying the AOKP Jellybean. There are some minor issues with bugs being worked out with the nightlies, but overall it's dope!

I've been on CM 10.1 nightly 03/23 since that day and it's really nice. Everything works smoothly and CM is a pleasure.

Does the TouchWiz work on it?

touchwiz = jedy jelly or stock
aosp = cm

Infamous S2 is very good too.

I second this one. Jedi Jelly 6 is very smooth. My only issue with it is that it's based off of a leaked AT&T ROM.
I believe ptmr3 (the dev) is working on a new version that is based on the recent 4.1.2 release specifically for the SGH-T989.

I switched to an AOSP based ROM and I'm never looking back despite wifi calling being a cool feature, but I never used it. Anyway, I've been using 2.2 Slimstars which was pretty great. The updates seemed to be a little unstable like the camera not working. Is the new one, 4.12 pretty much fixed? And are there many changes with 4.2.2? I may try PACman. How's that stability wise? Stability and speed (I just want it to work without waiting you know?) are priorities.

ptmr3's Jedi Mind Trick JB 2.1 is by the the fastest and smoothest and glitch free rom out there
I have tried almost all roms of the ICS and JB flavour
personally I do not like non touchwiz roms
and all CM and AOKP 4.2 roms do not support MHL output or Bluetooth mouse properly
everything seems to work on JMT except for OP known issues

finding the right OS recomendations?

i am trying to find an OS with great battery life, the best possible cell reception, that i can copy and paste easily between all screens and that has neat features for usability.
I have used dark side and jedi mind tricks ICS and both had great battery life, i liked jedi better.
i tried AOKP V3 jelly bean and it was very fast and worked great but battery life was half that of ICS, there were days i would have the phone unpluged for 3 hours and it would be down by 60%.
i am running jedi mind tricks jelly bean right now and its much better on battery life than AOKP was but the messaging is slower, the flash light is a bit glitchy and the cell service is much weaker than AOKP was.
what OS should i try next?

I prefer jedi mind trick jb. But embryo 6-11 (Touchwiz 4.1.2) is also great. I got great battery life with it and there are so many settings to play with (i.e. statusbar transparency, overclock, etc...). Its really fast and stable and is a good rom overall. Plus I think you meant custom rom instead of a OS.
Don't forget to hit thanks

i am using jedi mind trick 4 jelly bean right now. its fast in some areas but slow on teh txt screen, has graphic glitches in 3D games, is a bit slow when searching contacts and turning on the flash light makes the camera crash untill i reboot. perhaps i should try version 5?

im installing version 5 tonight and ill see how it runs. i am seriously thinking of just going back to ICS, i love some of the features of JB but i just cant find a good version of it.

As far as OS goes I'd say Android
As for a Custom ROM I'd say try them all and make the choice your self..(I know I hate that answer too.. But its the only way you'll find what's eight for you.. )
I personally love AOKP and Cyanogen as they are the only truly custom built from source ROMs. Have many features. And if set up and tweaked have awesome battery life..
But lately I've been using Jedi Mind trick and its a pretty nice mix between battery and performance.

Thanks man, Downloading now

embryo 6-11 or jedi mind trick JB 5

Do believe slim is also not aokp

There are some older TW roms running GB and ICS might wanna check those out. I dont know about battery life but I would believe a close to stock GB rom would get better battery then fully fledged TW UX jelly bean rom but thats just me. Id experiment a bit because im sure everyones battery status is different depending on the manufacturing quality or how the battery was used. Good luck! :good:

I always found tw ICS stock koodo was best battery for me. Mines always ****ty though, 14 hours max a day with only 1 hr screen usage

The best battery life ROM = ICS Touchwiz. May have a decrease in performance but honestly the best there is.

I'm using 4.2.2 rom from Team Carbon, and battery life is great. The bottom line, is I don't get any random wakelocks, which is HUGE for me.
