A lil help getting around. - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

So I'm getting the t-mobile gsii soon. I currently have the epic 4G. I looked in ur dev section and seen a lot of ROMs but noticed that from the titles I didn't see any 4.2.2 ROMs, is there any? I'm expecting yes, since my epic 4g has a handful of them already.
Do you guys have slimbean? If not, any recommendations for the closest ROM to slim?
And your kernels support voodoo sound correct?

EDIT: so I found some 4.2.2 roms and even slimbean.
I'm still a lil confused about the kernels tho.
There's different kernels for stock tw, jb 4.1.2 and 4.2.2? Do they have
And another thing is the radios, are they like modems?

Kernels come with the ROM. Most of the time it can stay where its at and you'll never know the difference. For a 4.2 ROM, i'm partial to AvatarROM. And we have 10.1 nightlys posted on the page as well. If you want stability, 4.1 is the best choice ATM. Jedi Mind Trick JB v4 is a great choice. (look at me... Plugging all these ROM's. lol) Its super stable and you can swap out kernels if you need to. It doesn't have a theme engine in it yet, but the avatar rom does have themeing though. Your chice. IDK about the Voodoo sound. That kinda died with GB. The new ROM's have Beats audio and the DSP manager. Does better than Voodoo. Radios are like modems, yes. They can be swapped out but need to be compatible with your kernel in order to function properly. UVMC6 comes with most ROM's but I like the radio from the Note2, UVLG3. Most ROM's can utilize a Kernel Tuner and an app called Trickster MOD from the playstore. You can set idle frequencies and make it so only one core runs until a load is placed on the phone. Real battery saver. And make sure your flashing the right Gapps packages for the ROM. 4.2 Gapps won't work with 4.1 even though they are both JB. Hope that helped. Any other questions, PM me.

Yup, thanks. That was almost everything I needed to know. I'm not a total nube so I understand how everything works, its just you guys have some things different than what I'm used to from the Epic 4G forum. I've rooted this device before so I shouldn't have a problem with that and I'm familiar with a few of your ROMs such as Avatar, but I'm going to have to try some new ones to see what I really like. Thanks for you reply tho, ill probably have more questions once I actually get the phone by the end of this month.

Most stable ics rom.?

As title says. Its not my primary device so i want an opinion from someone current... Shes had a lot of problems with LOS... Thanks
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I957 using Tapatalk 2
Los is most likely caused by the modem. I suggest running the el29 modem with whatever ICS ROM you choose.

Ok but what about the latest stable rom.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I957 using Tapatalk 2
If you want rock solid stability I suggest running blazer 4.1, which is gingerbread. But if ICS is what you want, you could run stock ff18. In addition, all of the custom ROMs based on ff18 should be more or less the same in terms of stability. Choose whichever one you like.

You could give Blu Kuban a try.
Also, give different modems a try but make sure she always updates her PRL & Profile after every modem flash, then give it time to settle in. If that one doesn't get her speeds up, try another using the same method above. Sometimes you have to try the whole lot before you find what works best in your area. Again, update PRL & Profile after every modem flash, don't just give it a few minutes or hours to prove its worth, give it a day or so then flash another if that one doesn't do well.
Whats stable on here for one may not be for another. I use CM9 nightlies with no issues at all. Honestly if you want a rom for someone that does not care about flashing go GB throw a theme on it and let them enjoy life.
Anything else you will find yourself tinkering with it. although I am on the nightly from 6/21 and have not looked back.
I'm a big fan of tFF18. I find it stable and nimble. Easy to work with and good theming.
AOKP is treating me really well

Same here. I've been following the AOKP builds from when they were first brought here up till now.
CM 9
EDIT: No matter what ICS rom you choose, be VERY careful to read, understand and follow the installation instructions. Otherwise, you're going to end up with a very expensive brick. Also, check your MD5s.
-----------
I've been using CM 9 since v.A5, and I'm quite pleased with it. I can't say I've had stability problems with it, but the setup process can be tricky.
You have to get a GPS lock and update your Profile / PRL either right before upgrading or using their multiboot rom option (which worked perfectly for me).
Also, you need to remember to install the google apps separately, but I believe all AOSP roms have a similar requirement.
However, once you've passed these initial hurdles, the ROM runs great. I have no complaints and use it as my daily driver. I use Maps, 4G, Netflix, a bluetooth keyboard and mouse, and so on. My family teases me that whenever I'm not in front of a computer, I'm in front of my phone, so that should give you some insight on how thoroughly I use it.
Currently I have been using touch of sgsIII rom for about a week with no issues at all it has the voice talk and music player and messaging from the samsung galaxy s III and I am really liking the feel of this rom the only issue is that the sound effects are not working in the music player but I can personally deal with that til they find a fix other than that great work team rejects on this rom and I recommend it to anyone. But like said above one rom can work good for one and not another so give it a try and see how it works out for you.
Ok. Thanks for all your replies. I need to start downloading...

I have four roms I rotate between, restoring and updating as new releases come out. I have had nothing but great experiences with all these, sans the occasional burp. Once I had them set up the way I like, all have been trouble free. If I had to pick the high points of each I would say Agat's rom is the best all around with great speed and battery life. Venum Ice has an original color scheme and lots of bells and whistles. M'ICS feels very similar to Ice to me but has a Cyan color theme. Blu Kuban is like a different animal in that it has an updater built in that lets you change tons of visual and functional settings.

Blu Kuban http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1625535
Let me leave you with this... If I had to pick one of these and never flash again, my choice would prolly change any day you asked me. All are rock solid and well supported by great devs that are very active and responsive to their base. I can honestly say you can't go wrong with any of these.
Hi guys im new here, im reading a lot theses 2 days and just wanna ask is there any port of s3? Or a ROM with S3 apps?
Also thoose Venum Roms has stock theme biilt in? Becuase im more of a rom stock theme guy LOL

I am currently running wanam's 1.1 version of his stock-based ROM. Been running it for 2 days and has felt much smoother and battery friendly than stock! ATT and Samsung apps are flashable later through CWM which like. LOVE this ROM. Only known issue that I have seen is the 1080p recording for the camera. It does record in 720p though. Thanks!

I ran CM !0 for a few days but I used a Mac and MTP doesn't work so its a bit of a deal breaker for me, but in all fairness its Extremely stable to be an Alpha build. My first android phone was the G1 and then on to the Nexus One so i'm a sucker for AOSP based android roms and for Cyanogen Mod in general so ill be running it when the MTP gets sorted out on my Mac.
I tried Wanams rom, I remember him from my SGS2, Hes a great Dev & its really stable as well.
The best all around so far for me is AndroidUser00110001's Rom linked below. I've found the wifi disconnect problem that i was having with the other TW Roms is gone and it has had the best over all balance of performance and stability.

When it comes to battery life there literally is none better, he did a fantastic job with his ROM. It takes a performance hit at times but its to be expected.
Overall, AOKP has everything I want, sans killer battery life

I have looked at it, and the one I have installed on my phone even has the Aurora designation I intend to use if I publicly release a rom for this phone, so we will see.
Also, son of a *****, godaddy didn't auto-renew my domain. Guess I will need a new one.
A buddy of mine just got the S3 and isn't into the touchwiz and nature theme. He just got the phone yesterday so I've been looking for the best custom rom with everything working. Any suggestions? I know it's early in the game and I might be asking too much. I've been searching and haven't been able to find much. Thank you for any suggestions.

I used Aura on my Atrix for the longest time. I like the stability of kyan's ROM. I just know the layout and I like the dandelion/water unlock screen LOL. I liked CM10 and had no issues. I plan on trying AOKP tonight. I like the drop down 15 toggles mainly because they are quick to get to and turn on and off like torch and brightness modes.

Definitely AOKP. Ice Cream Sandwich and Jelly Bean versions are awesome. I've yet to find any bugs that keep it from being a daily driver. In fact I've found none. But I haven't used it that in depth much, we shall see.
But I put my vote in for AOKP. By far the best, and I only flash for AOSP based ROMs anyways. :good:
AOKP JellyBean and ktoonsez JB kernel. Those guys rock. Never seen a preview work so well, looking to see what's to come.
sent from my iPhone killer
I'm using and loving Wanam, but due to the poll, I really want to check out the AOKP.

Now what?

Alright so we got our jelly bean update and so far all the stock based custom ROMs are stable from the most part, mod have been added for speed tweaks and battery life. So far so good. Now what? Lol what do we do in the meantime? Just find mods and see what people would like and see if they can be implemented in ROMs? I've flashed almost everything and TW on every ROM is stable if the source was official JB for t999. The AOSP ROMs are stable for the most part with very minor things not working. Kernels have squeezed as much performance from the board of this phone as much as possible (don't expect any kernel to bring you 7000+ on quadrant). So what now? The o my progress that's happening mostly is getting aosp 4.2 on this by tw is descent in my opinion. What will you guys be doing in the meantime? Look at other threads and find mods?

It's refreshing not having to keep up with the grind every now and then. Especially with the holidays upon us, time is scarce and free time is better spent doing other things than dealing with crackflashing habits.
Exactly. What now is what annoys me about xda. It makes it seem like people don't actually enjoy their phone. I actually found xda by mistake back she. I had a vibrant. I actually left for a while because I was pretty much the same way. Flashing and reseting y phone pretty much daily trying out new ROMs. When things got stable I asked the same question as op. Realized I never actually used my phone. I don't root very much but come here for advice and for new news. I've tried flashing roms but I actually use my phone and have a life to live. Be happy things are stable. That's my advice. Its an addiction.

Lol actually, i do use my phone. Back when we had ICS, there was jelly bean but i kept going back and fourth between jelly bean AOSP and stock TW ics. found that TW was solid but had a few issues with Bluetooth which i used with my Bluetooth headsets. So I was on AOSP and back and fourth. I have been on JB TW since it dropped and haven't flashed since. lol so i guess im just adjusting to not flashing weekly. But even when flashing, i would use my phone pretty often. for now, im going to just stay here, add the mods that i want, and look for the ones i need (skip track with volume rocker w/ screen off) and then i will delete the app from my phone and come here every 2 weeks.
Now we wait for 4.1.2 so we can get multi view like the note 2.
Other than that, most of us will have moved on to SGS4 by the time the S3 gets 4.2.

I thankfully got this out of my system back with my Vibrant. At some point I just realized that I was doing... Nothing with my phone. I'd switch out ROMs and the like, but ultimately.. I just went back to stock with a custom kernel and a few tweaks for speed and performance. But mostly had it set to spiffy fast and ultra usable.
I've done the same with my GS3. I didn't care much for the ROMs I have seen out there, so went back to stock. Now I have Jelly Bean on here, with a custom kernel and rooted. Got it running outrageously smooth and fast. What more do I need? My phone is as good as it is going to get until 4.2 and hopefully whatever comes after that.
So I use it. I show it off to people. I achieve great computing and processing needs when out and about. I like my phone. I don't need anything more out of it than what I got.
I just hang out at XDA for if anything new ( feature, app, etc. ) comes out that seems neat, if an error crops up, or quick fixes.

I am on JB touchwiz and i am running the 4.2 without any issues at all. You need to make sure you uncheck the location tagging option when installing it. The photosphere feature is fantastic and have all my Crapple user friends drooling over it, also the new gallery is better as well. I have the new 4.2 keyboard but prefer swype and the new google calendar. LOL.
To clarify, I am running both, stock camera and 4.2 camera with no problem.

Can anyone help?

Just got my GS3(ATT) and im loving it.
ex Galaxy Note user so im familiar with rooting/odin/kernels/recoveries etc..
i just need some guidance in a completely stock rom that hes everything working.
and a kernel that everyone is trying
this isnt a "which rom is better?" thread or "what do you recomend?"
i know i have to try things out fist but i wanna keep it TouchWizy for a bit for now

I dispute the existence of such a thing, but suit yourself...
If I were you, and I'm reading correctly that your phone is currently running ICS, I'd start with stock Jelly Bean; you can grab a rooted stock image here. Since I'm not running a TW ROM presently, I can't really suggest what might be good beyond that; I'll take the opportunity, though, to point out the KT747 kernel (which I'm currently running) available in several different flavours for AOSP and TW alike; configured properly, it's consistently been a performance and battery life boost for me.
Realistically, it's probably best to poke around for yourself and see what works best for you; there's a lot of development effort going towards this device right now, and there's something for everyone.

ill most likely start out with stock JB TW and add the kernel for some performance then start doing some more heavy duty stuff

I know with the Note, the AOSP/AOKP roms had the whole Bravia/Beats/Thunderbolt tweaks (not that I need them or anything) just wondering if there is any like them
Thanks once again.

Thank you!! I'm downloading it now.. I decided to skip the stock JB for now and just jump to the big stuff.
My fiancé hates the flashing lol
I had a bad Note where calls/text wouldn't come in.. It might of been the ROMs too, not sure. But I had promised her I wouldn't flash anymore..... I just couldn't stay away haha

Tell me how it goes! It's an extremely well built rom
Yeah, I know what you mean, haha. I used to flash like 5-10 roms a day; I just couldn't find the right one! But ultimately stuck with Task's AOKP.
There's this other rom that is very similar to a Galaxy Note II experience, if you're looking for one that is. It also has the Bravia Engine and DSP Manager (kinda like Beats). Check it out here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1951115

I liked it a lot! Really really smooth!
Sooo I got the OK from the future Mrs
So I'm running the rootbox ROM...
So far its amazing! And everything is working.. I couldn't stay away from aosp Lol
Any opinions on Liquid Smooth or have you tried it?
On the Note it was crazy fast or smooth so I'm gonna see how it does on the GS3.

Good stable roms

Hey guys. Sold my s2 now with the s3. So confused on whats a good stable rom. Ive searched through and cant believe how many roms there is. You guys rock. All im looking for is something smooth. When I play some games I noticed my phone lagging. Im unrooted right now. On the latest update from ota. Sorry if im coming off as a noob, but there is so many. Im out of the loop

Tbh all the roms available for the Gs3 are stable to do just about everything you want. But, some roms gave minor tweaks that would make choosing between them a little difficult.
You should try Freeza's rom, it has the stock feel with some theming along the way. The rom performs very well for first time gs3 rom users.
Honestly I've flashed a good number of all the ROMs and it will all depend on what your likings are. I can suggest a ROM but not say these handful are better than the rest. If you understand me.
I would say try out Goodness JB edition, Stongsteves odexed ROM, wicked, and feezas.

Best thing to do, Cruise the dev section, check out a few threads.. See what they look like, bug log, check last few pages to see if anything odd has came up.. Then flash and try.. Best thing is.. if you don't like it.. you can wipe/flash again as much as you like. The People's Rom + morphology is where i would go! (FreeGS3 is also a good one) check them out.
Also, the GS3 (LTE) has the Adreno 225, it's not going to handle high-end games as well as some of the more powerful devices. Even with another ROM.

All ROMs are stable and all are the best. No one can tell you what is best for you and your phone except you. There is no substitute for reading about the ROMs you will use to alter your $700 device.
Thanks for understanding
