Hello guys...as every galaxy w owner wants best possible rom for his/her phone...people try switching between different ROMS and dont figure it out as some roms drain battery...some give fc's at while performing operations...so for those users (mostly noobs) ...best possible soultion is a stock rom...now mostly people say stock ROM is very much laggy...i had the same experience with my stock ROM...but now there is a new ROM Launched for Galaxy W XXLM8 Europe....this is very good as compared to other roms as it also brings some ICS features like Face Unlock...and is much smooth as compared to previous ROMS...
Following Link would help you with that...
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1654643
And for those who wanna use custom Rom...Rebel Rom is a good option....and Cyanogen mod is also about to get its fifth update...so till it's fifth update...You can either use Rebel Rom or there are more that might get ur day good...!
As this is a guide for new users...so if anybody wants to ask any questions about his phone such as Rooting,CWM Recovery or Flashing Via Recovery or Odin....i am always there to help....Thanks

What he said. As far as touchwiz goes, TDJ's Darkside Evolution blows the others away and CM10 is what it is. Super stable and Jelly Bean.

Now, to literally answer the title of the thread...
which rom do you keep going back to?

I would have to say, the stock Koodo 4.0.4 ROM. It's the only ROM that I'm able to flash on my phone through Odin that is completely clean of anything custom.
Helps when trying to troubleshoot installing custom ROMs with pretty much a clean slate on the phone. Cheers!
Hehe nice to meet a fellow O1 owner. I came from the Optimus One P500.
Oh, this phone can run on Skyrocket ROMs. Just flash a rotation fix and bam.
On topic, I think I prefer the CM10 nightlies as I keep going back to them over and over. However, I'm starting to use the Touchwiz 4.1.2 UCLL3 leak for the skyrocket. And also the stock Koodo ROM mentioned above was alwaysy previous choice. I still want to go back to it because its clean, no bloat at all.
Enjoy your stay!

wow good news. I didn't know we can run skyrocket rom
what is d2tmo? I thought that is for galaxy SIII ? as I am reading in liquidsmooth dev thread
I like vanilla aosp experience but I will not disregard stock samsung touchwiz rom either
I consider stock samsung rom as vanilla experience in it's own world
now that you mention 4.1.2 leak from skyrocket I may try that if it stable.
on second thought maybe I stay with koodo rom
I still got a lot to read in this whole new phone...

You are correct about 'd2tmo' being a GS3 ROM. Whatever you do, DO NOT FLASH IT! There are already enough posts on here with a person saying they 'bricked' their phone.
If you are still planning to flash a custom ROM, my recommendation would be trying one of the All-Star Devs ROMs. There are too many ROMs to link, but if you search up for threads created by Tmogalaxys2 or android88 in the 'Development Section' you will find any of the Team's ROMs.
Hitting the image on the right of my signature will also lead you to one of the ROMs. Good luck!

D2tmo is s3
Make sure you read and flash for Hercules aka s2
so the different between liquidsmooth and liquidsmooth all star is:
-Android 4.2 themed
-Android 4.2 launcher
-4.2 clock
-4.2 fonts
-4.2 keyboard
-4.2 boot animation
-Many build.prop tweaks for better performance
-Pimp my ROM tweaks
-Seeder Script
-Velocity Tweaks
-AC!D Audio
-Xloud
-Bravia Engine
-Nibbles Kernel
-A lot more!
is it possible to mount internal SD card in CWM? if so which version of CWM?
I don't have micro SD card

Correct, the All-Star version is basically the same as the official Liquid Smooth ROM with extra features. If you are asking your question in regards to flashing the ROM through internal memory, yes, it is possible. Just place the ROM files on the root of your phone.
Also, rather than using CWM recover it is recommended to install and use TWRP 2.3.3.0 on your phone as it is a more up to date recovery system.
How has no one mentioned AOKP? I've tried a few others, but it's always back to AOKP.

If I understand you correctly, you want access to settings through the 'notification bar'? Almost all custom ROMs now should have an option to add "Power Widgets" in the notification for quick access to certain settings if that's what you're looking for.

AOKP is pretty good but I feel CM is a little smoother and stable. Could be wrong as I haven't tried aokp in awhile

@corwest: Oops! Didn't mean to hit "thanks", so have a free one on me!
To the OP, I keep going back to PACman rom. In my opinion it is the best of cm10, AOKP and ParanoidAndroid, though going through the settings can be a little confusing to a newbie since AOKP's Rom Control and CM10 seem to redouble some of each others settings including toggles in the notification drawer (you will notice two sets of toggles active when you first boot the rom). That's the only problem I have with it. (Isn't it great when you can complain about having too many options?)
Kooodo stock rom that I have customized a tiny bit (deodexed with a couple simple mods). Its fast, stable, and has great battery

I always go back to darthstalker version 4. Favorite rom so far, only feature i really wanna keep that no other rom(touchwiz roms) has (maybe i'm wrong) is the ability to record phone calls, and the crt effect. I love touchwiz from the s3.
I've been trying to port miui v5 3.3.29
I've got most of it working on a touchwiz base
Here's a link to the rom that I have that will install and boot.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/q5h1k2utu2...1213.04.01.zip
not working:
-any connection to network (cdma, wifi, wimax)
-System menus default to upside-down orientation
-home and search buttons
working:
-everything that does not require network access
anyone that can help, if you have some insight into how to fix the few issues with this port I think we can make a good leap for miui on the E4GT.
Thanks to all
-Kobridge for the base
-Adhvanlt
-all E4GT devs
Note* I tried porting some of the libsec.ril files over from the 3.2.22 miui but no luck with getting anything to work, phone would not boot.

The network connections would probably work if you used an AOSP base rather than Touchwiz (and maybe solve some of your other issues). I recommend CyanogenMod as it is usually the easiest to port to.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2099881
Also, here is a JB Porting guide I wrote up awhile ago. http://db.tt/CYqnIv9p Hope this helps, I would love to see a fully functional MIUIv5 on our device.
Let me know if you need anymore help.

Exactly what I was thinking. Thanks for bringing it up.
I didn't think I was the only one that thought that AOSP would have been a better base.

The version he is using to port from is actually Touchwiz base. So not all MIUI is aosp.

Yes but AOSP is much easier to port for someone just starting out was my point.
I just don't understand why anyone would use tw as a base. I'm not bashing the dev just as MIUI in itself is AOSP I would imagine that if you're going to port it that you'd use a stable AOSP base.
I was trying TW on the advice of Adhvanlt, I've been trying with TW, ASOP and CM bases. all to the same effect, I just can't find a good resource on getting CDMA to work on the rom. if anyone knows more about porting the CDMA components over to the new rom that would be great!

You should probably use an MIUI from say the Sprint S3 or something along those lines and then it will already be there and working and you can work on the other issues... Just make sure the device you are porting from has the same screen resolution. It shouldn't be a problem however because your base ROM should already have the CDMA components. I'll have to take a look at this tomorrow when I get off work. I'm thinking the problem is somewhere else.
I wish you the best! I'm dying to try this ROM.
I havent been on here for a while and currently on MOAR rom, i love it but i been having wifi issues with it. My wifi disconnects every hour or so, so i cant download things.
Im thinking about flashing CM/AOSP rom but would like to know which is most stable and if i can use Morphology with CM/AOSP roms.Or is there any barebone stable Twiz roms that i can use Morphology with.
Thanx in advance.
Oh, and what is AIO Aroma?Is this Aroma installer for AOSP roms? And does it have theming like morphology?
There is no "most stable [type here] rom", they're all good
But generally its a good idea to stay on builds up to the latest official version (aka 4.1.2), because anything above that will be prone to issues
Aroma installer is like an installer customizer for android...it let's the dev give you options about how to install it, what to install, etc. And no, it's not restricted to AOSP roms, it can be added to any flashable zip (rom, mod, theme, etc)
AIO just means all in one
Its not the MOAR ROM I'm on it w no WiFi issues, i think flashing another ROM will not fix your issue. I can't remember if 2.3 MOAR came with the connection optimizer or not. If it did make sure you disable it.

I was on Sonic rom before and had no problems,but with Moar my fifi disconnects and reconnects once in a while.Maybe i just had a bad flash or wrong kernel,im on latest Agat.
Is there any roms that will let me connect my phone via usb to ps3 to copy files? I remember it could before ics update, isc uses new protocol so it cant connect to ps3 as mass storage.On my JB GS2 rom they have old mass storage protocol baked in but i havent seen this on S3 roms yet.

Honestly, I can't say, it just depends on what you're looking for. If maximum stability is a must, then the old CM would do the trick . I would just recommend going through the last couple pages for LiquidSmooth to get a sense for any bugs that have been fixed or are still present
Liquid Smooth is awesome, as well as DeviantXone.

In my opinion, as of late, most AOSP ROMs will lock up your phone or won't run smoothly.
Go with older builds that don't include the 3.4 kernel. All run smooth.
I ported Pure AOSP ROM if your looking for something no bells no whistles just Google its like a Galaxy Nexus for our SGS3

Android Revolution HD 18.0
Omega v17
Edit just tried HaWKiSH™EXTREME SERIE and i am loving it
NOTHING IS BEST
You cant ask what's best!
Its all about your need,
Every dev do their best to develop Mod/ROM
But you cant judge it in Rating or Something
Its best for you if it gives you what you really want
Like when i had an SII i needed to overclock + Dualboot my SII
Siyah kernel was best option for me, but if someone only needs over clocking or only dualbooting any other kernel can do his task that kernel would be best for him.. So please be specific about your Question/Request
