Can't be happier. I tried some other custom roms only to be riddled with bugs. And that's not even the biggest reason I went back to stock. Stock just offered so much more. Even something like the MHL doesn't even work on paranoidandroid. So I must say im impressed with what touchwiz has become lately. I wouldn't not even consider using stock for the vibrant I had before. How things have changed.
I'm stock rooted as well just using go launcher instead and can't complain.....

Well, what is the point if this thread? But my bigger question is why would you use an AOSP ROM that will have problems and be missing features and say it isn't as good as stock. I run tweaked. It had all the features I love if stock plus abunch ofextras and zero bugs. Stock based ROMs are for the most part bug free

Try Jedi x12. I been on it for awhile and haven't found any bugs at all. I went back to stock for about a day and didn't like it so back to Jedi. Now over clocked to 1920 mhz, just to try something different.

CleanROM is the best. It's based off of the international version so it's on the latest Samsung official build. It's basically stock with no bloat. I don't know why their isn't a thread in the tmobile section. But I used to be on att note 2 so that's where I learned about the rom, then I switched to a tmobile note 2 and can confirm it works on the tmobile version. It uses aroma installer so all you have to do is pick tmobile is the Carrier prior to install.
If you have a perfectly working stock rom there is no need to muck up your phone with custom roms with parts not working. When I joined XDA and started rooting it was only to get a rom that was better than stock. WIth the N2, there is no point whatsoever in using a custom rom. If you have to give some up to use a custom rom, what's the point. Wifi calling and all SPen features have to work in order for me to even look at a custom rom.

I think ima go with this rom.. u had to format ur 64gb card as fat 32 right? Can you file be over 4 gb? Cameras 100%?
I did convert to fat32, but ran exfat for a long time using persus kernel. I converted to fat32 to try the baked in kernel that's included with Jedi master. I ended up liking persus much better tho. Just make sure to do a full wipe, then install the Rom, then perseus kernel, then the external to internal mod. All in that order before rebooting. I use Rom toolbox to backup, and restore all my apps, which saves me a ton of time when updating the Rom, as I have 140 apps installed on my phone, lots of huge Gameloft games too. Everything works on Jedi master, I've yet to notice any bugs, and I'm a heavy phone user.

After finally getting rooted yesterday (woohoo!), I flashed Stock sX v3.0. Awesome.

I would try anything from Wildchild. He mods stock ROMs both ICS and JB and they work great. I'm running the Xquizit xD v31(JB) and couldn't be happier. You can find it in the gs3 development forum.
Battery life is good and v 31 comes with all the tools you might need. You can also flash the Kitchen v 10 with it to customize your ROM.

Temporary do to someone stealing his work and it is a downer in general, besides we are on the verge of Official JB. So no point in spending so much time working on a rom that will be rebased and redone all over.

That's why the dev puts the features in the op. So you can see if you want to flash. Then if you read a Page or two of the posts you can see what people are saying about it. Basically all rooms are the same at this point. Some just have extra mods or are themed. Try one... or two. Every one had different uses and preferences. So what I say is the best you may hate.

I would doubt it. The s-pen is a Samsung thing. AOSP doesn't support it. I THINK the guys working on a CM10 port here are trying to make it work though. I guess it will have to be some kind of CM10/Samsung Franken-ROM. lol
Been switching between Jedi and clean roms... Both are great roms. Been running jedi 6.1.2 for the last two days and have to say i love it. But i will be checking out clean rom 3.3 soon to see how it runs.
Jedi all the way.. It's a smooth and stable daily driver with everything you will need to get the most out of your Note 2

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2
I tried Jedi rom first because I do not want to mess around with glitches and want as stable of a rom as possible that gives me the features I want. I will go into a rom thread and check the date of the OP's last update. Then I jump to that date in the thread and start reading about the latest release to see what people's opinions are. Everyone loved the Jedi rom and now I do to. There is not a single thing I can find that doesn't work with it. It is fast, stable and had the multi window feature that has not been released on my AT&T phone yet. Although flashing can be fun, I don't want to keep flashing all the time, so I want to be as stable as possible. Jedi for the win.
The only thing I didn't like about Jedi was the branding text on the bottom of the notification drawer and the lock screen. Anyway to turn those off?

I started with CleanROM but ended up switching to Jedi as well. Been running it since 3.1 and now I'm on 6.1.2. Very stable, great performance, can't find any excuse to flash another.
I'm sticking with stock unrooted with Nova launcher. I've spent way too many hours rooting/unrooting and flashing roms on my last two Android phones (SII Skyrocket & SIII) only to find out each rom had glitches. Stock has great battery life, works with the S-pen, and just works as it should.

I'm running aokp for a few days and love it. You can change the DPI settings to 213 for all apps and it works great! I changed the keyyboard back 240 so it fits the screen right.

I cannot post over on the Synergy thread that I located as it is developers only and I completely understand. I am hoping the Synergy folks see my post here and my thanks.
I've had my SGN2 for a few months and have pretty much played with JB Domination. I finally had enough of what I felt was the blue everything being shoved down my throat and went back to stock. I think it is one of the best ROM's out there but not if it forces you to accept all of it's programming and colors much like the SGN2 itself. This is my opinion.
Synergy is nice!! It gets ride of a lot of crap on the phone, it is very, very quick, it gives me the tether that I need. No complaints. I liked it so much that I actually sent in a small donation, something I typically do not do often on things like this.
I will say I am running V14 as it that seemed the heaviest in use. There is a v32 version but my phone kept turning off and had to have a battery pull to get it back online.
If you liked r14, upgrade to r47...its what i am running now (ziggy kernal and all). platt continues to outdo himself with each update!

I upgraded from Synergy LJC to Synergy MA7 easily with no problems at all. I would say the biggest upgrade is being able to use Ziggys kernal. There were some hiccups with his kernal on LJC, but it runs smooth on MA7. I say make a nandroid, and take the plunge!

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.

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!!!
