I LOVE the feel of vanilla android, which is why I had a nexus 4, and a GNEX before that. But at the moment I am using a galaxy s3. First thing I did was root and start going through custom ROMs.
The problem I am having is EVERY aosp, aokp, cm ROM I have tried I have serious issues with WiFi. Tends to work fine during set up and for a while after that, but after a seemingly random amount of time it will shut off the WiFi and fail to turn back on until I reboot.
I have been searching for a couple hours for a solution with no luck. Has anyone else been having this problem, and if so is there a solution?
Thanks in Advance.

I had the same problem. Try LiquidSmooth.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
I have tried liquid smooth, pacman, dirty unicorn, and a couple others. Every touchwiz ROM I try WiFi is perfect.
I use twrp to wipe data, cache, system, and dalvik several times. Then I install ROM, wipe dalvik again, reboot system. Let it be for usually 10 minutes or so, restart the phone and go. Works great for a minute, then the WiFi issues...
Update your bootloader possibly? Change your modem.

Or try the latest kt kernel. His kernels have an update WiFi driver.

It's certainly an option. Haven't used the ROM, but it looks good.
I was mostly responding because I always insisted on using AOSP ROMs also. I just got fed up with all the issues (at the time), and went back to TW. I don't particularly like the way it looks, but I don't really see the menus. The homescreen is the exact same (Nova). All the apps are the same. What I'm saying is the aesthetics can be overlooked.
Stuff from sources are always more stable than when there isn't , understand that and you'll know the troubles that comes with it.

I'll stand by this, great rom and super fast. Personally, I haven't had any wifi problems with liquid smooth though.
His rom is amazing and all, but there are differences in AOSP and twiz no matter how much we try to separate them both.

Thought I put this in Q&A, thanks.
I will try updating the kernel when I'm off work. If no luck I will try the suggested ROM.
Thanks for the tips.

So I flashed AOKP JB Milestone 1, and it ran great (fast, smooth, etc). However, after about 10 minutes of using it I started getting Hot Reboots about every 10 minutes. I could not figure out how to fix it, so I decided to flash the latest CM10 Nightly, and it was the same issue, ran fine for 10 minutes then started Hot Rebooting every minute or two. I could not fix it in CM10 either.
Because of this I had to go back to my modified Stock Nandroid. I do not want to be using stock anymore though and would really like to figure out what was causing these Hot Reboots. I made sure to clear my Wallet Data before I flashed the new roms...I did clean installs with wiping the phone multiple times...
Does anyone have any idea as to what might be going on here? Is there a superwipe zip for the d2tmo that might help?
ANY SUGGESTIONS ARE APPRECIATED!
Wipe data factory reset, wipe system flash ROM of choice then instal ONE app at a time and test it for about an hour or more. Should help solve your issue.

Make sure you're using a compatible kernel. Then try other ones as well.

Yeah, I just wanted to throw that out there since a lot of people don't stick with the kernel thst comes with the rom. If you're still having trouble id say try elesbbs suggestion a few posts back.

CM 10.1 has been a not so good experience for me. I solely bought the S3 to root and install CM on it. But bug after bug and gallery not syncing ....its hard to keep it. The TW ROMs eat battery up quicker than anything. What is weird to me though is that I had the S3 on Sprint with CM and all was working even on nightlies. You would think that the T-Mobile version would be as good.NOPE

Sorry dude. Some people tend to give smart answers and make it out to be like you're stupid or purposely disrespecting the devs when those were not your original intentions. You were just looking to get a straight out simple answer.. Everyone's got their reasons for what is said or done though so I can understand both sides but still, a simple answer is a SIMPLE answer.

The only issue you name is the gallery sync issue. Is that the Picasa thing? That's never worked on CM 10. Probably still in the OP.
What other issues are your having?

Do you mean that it's never worked on the Galaxy S 3 for T Mobile or cm.? Because it has, I've had it on other devices and it runs pretty darn good. besides the gallery issue I have random freezes that to the point I have to reboot my phone or take out the battery
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2
Use one that isn't a nightly and all US s3 variants will have the same issues except connection/data type issues. I have suggested for you to look up a picasa sync app from the market before, did you not do that? I'm almost positive it never worked for any device, without a mod.
Ok, freezing issues. What nightly are you running?
I was on the 27th but now I'm on stable release to and it still doing it
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2
Don't use a custom kernel, don't overclock, and don't undervolt. And don't use that ancient CM 10.0 stable build. Use 10.1 with the 20130301 gapps.
The 3.4 kernel builds are still pretty buggy. 3/17 was the last 3.0 kernel build. Try 3/17 (goo.im). If still having issues, please describe exactly what you are doing when the freezes occur.
Using 3/28, I had one hotboot this morning, been fine ever since.
Is hotspot tethering with password supported in the nightlies? I am currently on CM10 stable now. Couple of months ago the nightlies hotspot password was not working.

danke...thanks to all developers from bottom of my heart
Now to find linky for internal external memory swap for CM10.x. I couldn't find it after days googling...maybe I should find better keyword.
Was only on stock for less than a day, rooted, installed a couple renditions of goodness and a random other and just haven't found what I want to be my daily. I've been on goodness 9.0.4 for quite some time but the headaches I've experienced just aren't what I'm used to. Before anyone asks, I always fully wipe phone sometimes twice before I sample. Did the same in my HTC Evo days. Which brings up were I'm going with this. On my original Evo I ran swagged out stock.....beautiful, and my Evo LTE, worse phone I've ever paid $200 for, I ran MeanBean...another great ROM to my suiting. For anyone unfamiliar with those 2 they are mostly stock ROMs with just the right amount of extras, custom boot animation, maybe a slightly tweaked drop down menu with a couple popular apps or settings added, the must have Super User and WiFi Tethering, and one of my favorites the ability to reboot into recovery from the power off menu, not sure what that's called but its priceless. So I begin by offering up my willingness to try other ROMs out there based on suggestions you, the experienced, throw out. But I can't help but wonder if all I really need is stock with a few extras. That's where I'm lost, I couldn't find a gs3 mod that would work for me and stopped before I broke something. Open for suggestions, and appreciate everyone's time. As well I am greatfull for all the hard work that the details s have put into the Roms I've tried, your incredibly talented people and your time and knowledge are above and beyond.

I was in the same spot as you for awhile. I've tried lots of roms and a lot of different setups. So far I've been on Cyanogenmod 10.1 the longest so far but that's far from stock TW. You also might want to check out Cm Rom, I really like that one. Lol But if you get the flashing bug you won't stay with any one rom for a long period of time. But good luck in you quest

Any AOSP ROM you have to flash the Sprint vvm if you want it separately, or use Google Voice.
Edit: Clean bean is not AOSP but you can still load the Sprint vvm apk on any ROM that does not have it. I always keep the most updated version on my external card for any AOSP ROM that I flash. Try one of the ROMs I posted earlier in the thread.

Hi guys, so I've been having these issues on AOKP/AOSP ROMs for some time. WiFi takes a lot of time to connect, and while connecting, it sometimes disconnects by itself. I've tried almost all AOSP based ROMs and kernels, and this issue still persists. On a side note, WiFi works perfectly on Touchwiz. Any help is appreciated

Well you answered your own question then, I have flashed all the aosp/aokp/cm roms
and I came to the conclusion that none of those Cyanogen roms are ready for prime time.
There are a lot of other issues besides just the wifi with those Cyanogen roms.
There are some really nice T999 Samsung Touchwiz Jellybean 4.1.1 based custom roms out there and
they work a LOT better than any of those open source Android based Cyanogen roms do.
The very best of these Touchwiz Jellybean 4.1.1 based custom rom is the "Wicked v9.1" nothing else comes close.

This is most definitely an opinion. And some, including me, would argue that it is the exact opposite of the truth.
Try a different kernel. Like ktoonz. See if that helps the wifi issues. Also, have a look over your options.

And you have to decide for yourself which ROM to use because it must please YOU. It is best you read about the software you are about to drastically alter your $700 device with.

Ok i just dont have time to go through all the thread pages. Its not as easy as keeping with a rom from the day it comes out.
I know modems are depended on location but which one is the majority having good luck with?
If you like TW Roms I would use Clean Rom 5, if aosp is your style then slimrom build 8 or beanstalk
Clean and Sky are both solid TW Roms, Liquid is killer for AOSP.
