Best Stock rom with multiview? - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

So i'm looking to root a friends att galaxy s3 they want multiview on their phone.
I want to keep it as much stock as possible but with multiview added on.
I found synergy rom and it looks good but i want to find the best one and there's quite a few in the developer section.
Any suggestions? Thanks.

What's this multi view everyone be talking about? Haha

You got tow options: galaxymod or synergy ROM. Both are ported from Verizon and have a bit of a learning curve as a few pesky bugs remain. I suggest you not do it as issues more than likely will arise than can be fixed but unless its your phone I highly suggest against it.
I'm running galaxymod and its awesome and elegant. Might want to try yourself first if you insist.

Once he gets acquainted with Android and having a rooted phone and comfortable asking questions then have him flash it. I love the ROM but it has a learning curve on our devices.

Anyone else skipping roms?

I decided no roms this time around. I want everything to work. I will likely root to get rid of some bloat. Anyone else?

You're not alone. I was trying the same approach. So far I like what the note offers.

I agree, I'm only rooting to get my apps from titanium back, but other than that, I'm pretty sure I'll be happy with touchwiz JellyBean

I will say that this is one of the ONLY phones that I ever thought about NOT romming but I doubt I will be able to hold back if something really good comes out...Hello, I am Justin, I am a flashaholic!
GOTTA have root access though... Can't have any company telling me what I HAVE to keep on my phone! :good:
My exact same thoughts. I only rooted to get rid of the bloat. Quick question though. ... im a little nervous... would I still be able to update if tmobile decides to push one even though im rooted?
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app
I hope not to also but when a new version of android comes out and no update from the carrier then flashing seems like the only option..
Cm10 with S pen functionality is that possible?
Should get rid of CarrierIQ at least =/
Paranoid is a must on this phone. Will likely wait until there is a stable release.

Deff agree on that one. But alas, i will miss alot of the OG functions from touchwiz on this phone. Although with GN1, they found work arounds for it. Especially S Note.
My plan is to root as late as I can to avoid messing things up. I figure we won't see an update for a few weeks and by then all the bugs that come along with rooting a phone should be worked out. I really enjoy this phone and can, surprisingly, wait on rooting.

I know when I rooted that if I go to check for a software update it says it won't do it on a modified device so I am pretty sure we won't get OTA's through the rooted devices but you can just wait for someone to post the updated OTA and flash that and your good to go!
Or do you still have stock recovery?
Only rooted for bloat and spyware removal and a nice kernel. But im only flashing stock TW based roms!

The only way I will install a custom rom on the note 2 is if they come out with Android 4.1.2 , 4.2, or Key Lime Pie.

I'll still get a custom ROM but only those based on stick for full s pen and camera usage. Can't give those up

Seriously I don't understand why would anyone want aosp roms on this baby when spen features and touchwiz is what makes this phone awesome. To each its own. I just dont want the term flashing hipster to give birth.

I want to root but I want the functionality of ISIS.
So no rooting at this point

Im either going to wait to root until after the ota for multi window function is sent out or ill root if a rom including it is released first.

[Q] what N7105 custom rom do you use/prefer and why?

i'm new to androids and would love to know what factors to consider before/when a costum rom.
forgive me if this question has been asked before.
Well, there's not much to choose from right now. And they're all pretty much just rooted stock roms.
I'm using deadman's LL4 rom right now and haven't had any issues.
All the cool stuff is in the N7100 dev forums. Starting to wish I got the non-LTE version now!

[Q] galaxy s3 I747 multi view?

Looking for a rom that has this option. And please better battery life than the stock jellybean update.
Thank you.

Search through development and original development. Read the first post of each one, a list of features is there
I have been through several roms. I was curious if someone had one right off. So i don't waste time downloading to see I don't like it or it don't have it.
Hense I downloaded one that said it had it to run and find out it doesn't work or isn't really there.

I think there will be a synergy rom port coming soon that will have multi window. Here's the announcement thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2097878 so you can read up on it but It's closed now until the rom is released.
Thanks. I seem another one that look like it was close. I will check this out.

This is why these "suggest me a ROM" threads never work.
Synergy works just fine with no issues if installed correctly.
Those are the onyl two that have multiwindow. Synergy has a more stock look and galaxymod is more themed and custom.
Give them both a try because both are great works from great dev's

Good ROM for a Galaxy S3 newbie?

I just came to the Sprint galaxy s3 after using HTC devices for the last decade, and the EVO series for the last two phones. I'm looking for a nice smooth ROM with a stockish feeling and a performance boost. I don't mind Touchwiz as I still learning the in's and out's of a Samsung phone. I have already rooted using the toolkit.
So can anyone give me any suggestions?
There's very many TW based ROMs in the dev section, make a nandroid and start flashing . Personally I am stock MC3 (4.1.2 Premium Suite) with an over clocked kernel and am loving it! I have not found a 100% stock (but modified) TW ROM yet, most that I find have apps missing, slightly themed, different launcher etc etc. But flash some and have fun. Figuring out what you like is the joy of flashing.

Cool. I'm used to flashing various things on my HTC devices but this is the first phone that I've had that us spread out among a lot of carriers, so I know that bad things can happen if I flash a rom from the wrong carrier.
Thanks!

Just TRY to stay in the Sprint forums and make sure its always L710 or D2spr. Follow that and you'll be fine. Lol

I have been through 5 or 6 ROM's on my S3 and none have been as stable as The Peoples Rom with the Ktoonsez kernal. Tweeked with Battery life in mind it is amazing. I first ran CM based ROMS and then FreeGS3 for a while but they always seemed to slow down and start developing issues after a few weeks. The Peoples ROM has not given me a single issue since install. LOVE IT!
MOAR or TPR.
/thread
I have played with several of the ROMs and they are all good ones. My #2 is Goodness Reborn. But without a doubt Wicked Sensations is my daily driver, it is good all the way around.

Then you haven't tried TPR yet... Kenny makes sure that his roms come with all the bloat from Sprint and Samsung since we can remove whatever we want with a root explorers or titanium backup
SPRINT GS3 FAQ
Try cleanbean or whiplashh (version 1.0) rom. Both are pretty much stock with performance in there. TPR is also awesome along with MOAR and darthstalker. I personally love cm10. (not 10.1)

I just came from htc also.. Had every evo that came out. Im loving all the dope roms we have over here.. I was getting bored with my evo LTE development is dead for that phone then I get my gs3 and **its poppin over here!! :good::victory: My fav roms so far are stock rooted from freeza.. The Peoples Rom is sweet im on that one now. Senergy.. Goodness reborn.. MOAR rom
Yeah, I was getting fed up with my EVO, I loved them but things are slowing down over there and stuff was messing up a ton on the EVO. I'm happy with the GS3, and The Peoples Rom seems to be pretty awesome so far, 24 hours in.

blazer from phantomhacker is a good rom to start out with. it got me some incredible battery life and doesnt require much tweaking. One thing youll love about this device over the htcs is that if you REALLY bork things up, you can easily flash the stock rooted tar in odin to get it back to where you were before you started tinkering. Its like running the RUU on htc devices, but leaves it rooted so you dont hafta start all over with the root process. oh, and the root method is stupid easy on galaxy devices!!!
Try M.O.A.R or The peoples ROM

I've used TPR, MOAR, and others...but I always find myself going back to CLEANBEAN w KT kernel. For me it's been stable with the best battery life. As a matter fact the ones I've used are all stable...but cleanbean seems to get me the best battery.

3. What do you guys want in a ROM? Mods/Themes/Ect..
I'm looking forward to developing for you guys!

It's easy to miss CM10.1 becuase the thread for it is in the general section as it's not being maintained by the developer.

Awesome thanks man! I have heard a bunch about the features of the S4 but does all that only come on Stock? Or does Cm10.1 come with those features as well.

You lose all features on AOSP ROMS.

If you like all the new features and options of the Galaxy S4 which are advertised you will
really dislike any of the AOKP/AOSP/CM/MIUI roms.
All the Samsung and Touchwiz features and options are totally missing from those roms.
Those roms are as bare bone as possible. They don't even have wifi calling.
Even the excellent camera/camcorder is replaced with a very degraded camera app which
not only has most of the features and options missing, but the user interface looks like
somekind of home made app which does not even resemble the samsung camera.
But I know you will give the CM10 a try for sure, I did it way too many times in the past many
years and now I cannot think of even one good reason why anyone except for the developers
or people who really like to do a lot of experimentation with their phones flashing or using it.
Leaving a stock theme on your rom is perfect! Then people can theme their own phone because not everyone likes one theme!
About mods, just speed and battery life! Those two are important in my opinion!

I personally love the AOSP feel. As far as theme goes. But when it comes to performance I love stock Touchwiz on my Note II. So thats what I will aim for.
And how is the battery life on this phone? I heard from some people that it is really good and others that it isnt.
