I am having a hard time deciding if I want to go back to TW with stock JB. So far I am really happy with CM10 except for minor bugs here and there but what about you guys, Have you changed from CM10 to JB?
How do you like it?
Is it as fast and snappy'?
I miss the stock camera, the email layout, some gestures (txt to talk, Facebook integrated with contacts) and other lil' things here and there but that is about it.
Let me know.
I switched back. Its nice, smooth and snappy, but I do miss the vanilla aosp that cm10 delivers.....

I like both will use TouchWiz JB when need complete stock everything working 100% and then go to AOSP/AOKP when I want to have more fun with themes and such.
Yep I switched. I had been using all of the JB Leaks and had strangely poor performance but recently was able to attribute that to the "media server" taking up a disproportionate amount of CPU time and I was able to fix that. Everything's good.
I tried out the stock OTA and then switched right back. IMO nothing beats this stable CM 10.0 build.

Except having a camera that can save to SD card, ammirite!!!
Kidding aside, I switched back from CM to stock just a few days before the JB update and am glad I did. I've always used CM ROMs with previous phones, but this was the first time that there were simply too many things that should just work right that simply were not working right. The stock JB is definitely snappy, camera is great, GPS works instantaneously (was another gripe I was having with CM).

Cyanogen Mod is not vanilla Android.

I was wondering how people would compare stock android camera vs the galaxy s3 camera. To me it seems like you would be losing features if you switched to a AOSP based rom, atlease until they are based on 4.2.

Hold on there Cyanogenmod is far from sh*t. They do us all a great service, for free, by giving us the ability to truely own our devices and customize it the way we want.

Correct, the stock camera has a lot more features, at least a lot more that comes with the CM10 rom
I thought about it but i have always been a sucker for AOKP and CM10 since the my touch 4g, the reason I bought this phone was the fact that Samsung is usually dev friendly and usually has aosp ROMs available

I did change from cm10 nightly to stock jb official because the features touchwiz have are just amazing.:thumbup:
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Touch wiz may be bloated.... But the features are awesome. The motion and sharing options are way ahead of stock Android. IMO not since HTC Hero has a "skin" actually added something good to android.
We can have most of the best features and still have tw options with jb roms. I don't see a benefit to running aosp on the s3.

I switch between Official JB and CM10 Stable. Both are great and I just cant seem to settle.

Just because you couldn't handle it doesn't mean it's sh*t.. You need to know what you're doing. But it's okay if you're inexperienced, just don't bash something great because you don't know what you're doing.

Hi guys
I ask the question because everyone is quick to say how nice the AOSP or OTA ROMs are to start with in the threads posted, but if you fast forward to the latter pages of the thread you start to see what the issues are that have been caused by flashing these early ROMs.
I've gotten Soft Reboots on Stock/OTA odexed and deodexed 4.2 and 4.2.1 ROMs.
Just wondering if I'm alone and if anyone is actually waiting for this to calm down before flashing further?
I'm running JellyBro CM10.1 with the ZenSERIES v9 kernel. I've had no softboots. I've only been on this ROM 24 hours, but I previously typically had at least 1 softboot (graphics engine reset, usually) per 24 hours on CM10 (Android 4.1.2) with ZenSERIES v8.
Frankly, 4.2.1 has been much smoother and more problem-free than 4.1.2, though that might be due to it being my first clean flash in quite a while.
I am currently on stock 4.2.1 and before that on 4.2 stock. Have not experienced any soft reboots.

Since I upgraded to 4.2 I've had a few times when my phone is locked but the screen wont't turn on but the phone is still on because I can hear sms or mail notifications and even the alarm clock.
I have to take the battery out in order to use it again.

The reason for my musing is I'm seriously considering going back to 4.1.x ROm that was flawless. Just didnt have the Camera or the quick settings :/
AOSPA2.99x (with Franco kernel) since it came out. Never had a single problem (no reboots, no SODs, no battery drains, bluetooth working, ...)
I just hope that I didn't jinx it now.
Paranoid Android 2.99 + Jame Bond 4.2 test kernel = Rock Solid.

None at all either here. 4.2.1 MMuzzy's build on my GNex, stock kernel.
4.2.1 stock ROM on stock kernel on my Nexus 7 hasn't given me a single reboot issue either.
My VZW GNex has been on every version of MMuzzy's 4.2 and 4.2.1 ROMs from the start (stock kernel) -- not one hiccup.
Plain stock, no reboots

Absolutely 4.1.2 , 4.1.2 optimized for GN but 4.2 optimized for N4 .
This time I have 150 app in my GN with 4.1.2 and my device very smooth but with those app in 4.2.1 my device had very lag and had serious problems.

I prefer 4.2.1 on my GNex (toro). But it depends which ROM you install. I generally like XenonHD version of 4.2.1, but wasn't able to come up with a configuration that gave me really good battery life. Also, reading other threads it appears that several other 4.2 1 ROMs still have various issues. I installed Nexus Evolution 3.0 last night and it's been fantastic so far. Super smooth and every bit as slippery fast as CNA 3.8 (4.1.2) had been.... And IMO that is the best 4.1.2 toro ROM out there, and this is with over 130 apps installed.
BTW : I found that Apex Pro beta feels smoother and more responsive on the ROM than Nova does...
Back to your question though... 4.2.1 is great and I wouldn't go back to 4.1.2.

I prefer 4.2.1 but it drains more battery as 4.1.2
I wouldn't go back to 4.1.2
I prefer the stability of 4.1.2 for the way i use my phone. I seem to have better range with 4.2.1 but deal with flaky WiFi, Bluetooth and occasional lag. Battery life seems equal between the two for the way I use my phone. If they fix the radio drivers and smooth out the UI, I would prefer 4.2.x.
Wow. 4.2.1 shouldnt be in a stage like you people say, it reminds me that 4.2.1 is beta, which it isnt. i dunno if 4.2.2 is out yet but it must fix this bugs. also, Google is starting to not care with the GNex anynore because the N4 is out.

I'm still using 4.1.2 because for me it's more fluid. 4.2.1 seems a ROM in beta stage.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
4.2.1 works fine for me. No noticeable performance difference than 4.1 and battery life is the same as long as your phone settings and usage remains the same. I use rasbean now but ran stock for about a month, performance is the same, I just prefer the theme (with white settings mod) and features of rasbean.

I had random reboots with 4.2.1 stock and my nexus was quite laggy, so I came back to 4.1.2 CM10 and everything is smooth again! :good:
Do you know if the reboot bug has been solved?
Using 4.1.2 for a change but as mentioned by Many i feel it is very stable and better suited for Gnexus

4.2.1 has been stable for me. Do you know if your reboot issue was reported to Google? A lot of reboots on 4.2.1 were attributed to an app causing it.

I'm on rasbeanjelly 4.2 and I don't have any issues whatsoever. Its fast, smooth, responsive and all around awesome. So far its the best 4.2 ROM I've been on. But I'm thinking about trying evolution out. Looks tempting....4.2 is growing on me. I didn't like it all that much at first but now, wouldn't go back to anything lower then that

I've stayed with rooted stock 4.1.2 because I've read a lot of reports of trouble with Bluetooth under 4.2.1, especially when trying to connect to a car stereo. This has included poor sound quality.
Is anyone running stock 4.2.1 that is having solid Bluetooth performance in general and with their car stereo in particular? Also, I depend heavily on Stickmount to mount a flash drive via a USB OTG cable. Has this been working for folks under stock 4.2.1?
4.1.2 because it's more stable and less buggy

I just got mine while on travel the last week, so I'm still on 4.11. Will the freeze issue described here that (mostly) pertains to earlier versions be solved when I go to 4.12? Some there said that it shouldn't even be happening in 4.1, so I'm beginning to wonder.
I'm using liquid smooth beta 2 aoap jelly bean 4.2.1 rom and the audio on the ROM has problems when I make a call its low even in speaker I can barely here. Can this be fixed?

Its a known issue with all cm10, aosp, and AOKP ROMs.
However Task650 4.2.1 is now working perfectly fine. Audio is back to normal like stock touchwiz.

There was a recent fix not too long ago, but LS hasn't updated since before it was merged. Its fine on Rootbox, Task's AOKP and official CM10.1 nightlies for what I've heard
Same kinda thing happens for me on paranoid android. The bluetooth sounds like crap. No bass and I think its mono

Stock so far but that's probably because my phone is 2 weeks old and I can't s-off cuz I have a mac and too computer illiterate/lazy to load Linux just to s-off. I'm sure my preference will change once I flash a gpe Rom though...hopefully soon

Before this phone, I was AOSP all the way. Now, I can't find a good enough reason to leave stock. Kitkat may change that when we get some Roms

Stock, but really just for zoe and beatsaudio. And battery life and signal strength.

I'm using the full stock odex .10 release from Santod. This is the happiest I've been with a stock ROM. I use to prefer AOSP until the low camcorder volume issue came to surface. HTC really did am excellent job with both the hardware and software of this phone.

I like gpe the best. It retains the speediness of a sense rom, the beats audio for the speakers, and the ir blaster while having the AOSP interface. Best of both worlds

Running SlimBean right now. Working well.
Stock on NOS 2.0.1.
I've used AOSP roms for a few years and loved them. When I got this phone, I realized something...Why spend money on a new phone to just use the same old AOSP as I did with my last phone.
I think a major part of my change is that I actually like Sense, whereas I didn't care for touchwiz.
Stock! Love the Sense 5.5 updates!

AOSP here. Nothing at all against the stock rom, it is very well done for being stock. However there are some features I cannot get on Stock, and I prefer 3rd party launchers, making much of the stock setup worthless to me.
I do miss the camera app and higher signal strength. Also miss Blinkfeed, but Flipboard works well so I survive
Stock all the way.

GPE for me. But that is the only one I have tried on this phone so far. I didn't mind Sense, but it wasn't "stock" enough for me. I am using the Eclipse GPE Port for the time being, and will be switching to AOSP when Nitro gets the 4.4 AOSP version of Eclipse up and running. Then my vote may change.

Stock = Sense
GPE = Stripped down almost AOSP-like but with Sense framework
AOSP = Most basic stripped down
