I have always run CM or AOKP ROMs on all my Galaxy phones. My wife has an I747 and did not like me "updating" her last phone to CM10. I am having trouble figuring out IF and which ROMs are basically the S4 ROM set to run on an S3? Are there any TW Base ROMs that I can give her an S4 in S3 clothing?
Thanks
Ken
WOW, no replies at all? Does the lack of replies mean there's not one or do I not rate an answer. Not looking for the "best" ROM. Just if there are any.

Look at Jedi Academy. It looks like the S4, contacts, dialer, msgs....etc.. Obviously minus the things that require hardware. There is a screenshots tab. Take a look. The most recent ROM is 'Jedi Master'. As far as 4.2 or 4.3 no. But you can have themed to look the same.
BTW Posting title for a different phone in this forum may stop people from looking. A clearer title may have helped. ie: "S4 style ROM for i747"

Ive been able to get the note2 camera (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2034867) installed and working on my AT&T s3 but features like best group pose and the like arent available. It mentions something about needing touchwiz and a deodexed rom. Has anyone got it to work with Tasks AOKP? (release 12/2) I was going to flash blackjelly because it is confirmed to work with that rom but i dont want to give up AOKP. This rom is ROCK solid but id love to have the Note 2's camera!
Nope. You need a touchwiz ROM.

Hi,
I just traded my Nexus 4 for a Note II and I was so quick to flash a custom ROM I never bothered to use the stock one that came with the phone. Yesterday I thought I'd try out the S-Pen in some drawing apps I downloaded but it was only working as a stylus not as a Wacom pen. I would like to know if there is a way to do the following:
Install Samsung App's on custom ROM?
Install S-Pen on custom ROM so it works as a Wacom pen and not a stylus?
Install S-Note?
Mod/Add-on for Note II custom ROMs for the S-Pen that I may have over looked?
Custom ROM's with support for Samsung Apps and S-Pen/S-Note?
Are there any ROM's that offer the best of both worlds (S-Pen/Samsung Apps/S-Note support on a custom ROM with Theme Chooser/notification background)?
Personally I've been using AOKP (or PACMAN/ROOT-BOX) ROM's for about 1.5 years and really like them and all the options and customization they provided on my Nexus phones but when it comes to the Note II those ROM's might have taken away more fuctionality than they give.
Please let me know your thoughts. Is the S-Pen is worth giving up custom ROM's or if its more of a gimmick. Are you running Stock ROM or Custom?
It will not work with AOKP roms. It will work with custom roms based off stock such as CleanRom. If you want to use AOKP, there are apps that support the s Pen in the PlayStore.

Any recommendations for ROM's based on stock/TW?
there are several of them in the development section; check them out and try them to see which one YOU like the best..

Give CleanRom a shot first. That was my first one I flashed and loved it. I couldnt tell the difference between the regular one or the AT&T exclusive one. Both are really good.
I am currently using JEDI cuz it has some MODS that I like. Skynote is a good one to try too.
What is the best alternative for snote?
I had the same problem as the title. I wanted to root my phone to enjoy it to the peaks. But the problem is the spen. I love the spen and iam so much used to snote that iam feeing bad to change the rom. For that reason i did a root but not a rom change. Please do suggest me any applications that work same like snote. And one more thing.. Will spen and snote work on cm? Any version of cm
S-Note won't work but the S-Pen will.
I posted this thread in the themes and apps section. It's a list of mods, apps ,and touchwiz like features you can install on your Cm/aosp ROMs.

I am going to be pushing out multiple different ROMs besides my AOSP themed LegendaryROM and its line up.
I am wanting to get some ideas from the flashers that you would like to see in this ROM.
*Theme
*Base
*Features
*Ect...
Also if you are wanting to jump along on the Lethal Development team then just PM me. Always looking to expand!

I probably could come up with a table UI for one of my ROMs!!
that would be great too but i believe the minitab rom is a port with the base rom from Galaxy Note 10.1 (correct me if i am wrong) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2216311
If you can atleast have the phone.apk integrated with the tablet UI rom would be awesome

I am wanting to expand my ROMs to every type of ROM possible. I want to have the greatest variety of different options for users to pick from. That is my goal!
Wow great!!, in addition to your goal. IMO I would also love to see(if possible) roms with an option to choose from various UI like from sony, LG, HTC. That would be something unique and amazing to the users. Looking forward to the roms you will dev! . PM me if any sort of help is required in any way as my programming knowledge is definetly not like the pros but i have been with the community and also a flasholic for 4 years with different phones.
Hello friends, I ask them to pass a Roms from S3 for my galaxy nexus, that is Android 4.1 or higher, Thanks
If you are asking about a Touchwiz ROM, it likely isn't going to happen. There are a few things from Touchwiz that have been ported, like the launcher. Also there are TW themes.
If it is an AOSP ROM then it is possible.
Don't think that there will be a 4.3 ROM ported, but there is an old one in the Android development, but it is not really working.
@op what variant of the nexus do you have? Toroplus has a touchwiz rom which is 4.1.2. I run it on my phone and its very comparable to my wife's s3

Hey guys, so recently I dropped and cracked my Nexus 4 and the digitizer stopper responding, and I was forced to sell it on ebay. I love the Nexus experience, and every phone I've owned to this date (Nexus or not) has run a stock Android ROM. So I was just offered a good price for a tmobile Galaxy S3 and I was wondering if there are and stock 4.3 ROMs for the d2tmo. The newest supernexus rom (v3.0) is not supported by the d2tmo, but is by the galaxy s2 i9100 which I am now considering because of that. I was wondering if anyone could point me to a ROM that provides an almost nexus experience for the US versions of the Galaxy S3. I have searched for hours and haven't found anything yet. Cheers!

The closest that I recommend to an up to date AOSP experience as closest to stock at the moment would be Vanir.

Thanks for the recommendation, I came across that ROM when I was searching earlier. Does anyone know why there haven't been many attempts at an AOSP stock ROM for this specific version of the Galaxy S3? Is it just an unpopular concept or is the hardware of the device difficult to develop on?

Been thinking about it too. Maybe because pure ASOP isn't too far off from Vanir and LiquidSmooth..
I miss SuperNexus too lol
Edit = Also Vanir is on 4.3.1

As far as I know they're both mostly AOSP. I could be wrong though.

Be warned though, from what I understand the 4.3 roms are still buggy and some say should still be labeled as betas.

Is this only for the US variants of the GS3? Because besides liquidsmooth and vanir and a few others I haven't found many 4.3 ROMs anyways.

No idea, I don't keep up with the international model because most info you find for it is irrelevant to ours. You'll just have to read through their threads for answers about their models.

I'd say start with Galaxy S3 Resource Bible. Practically all the roms are listed there with a short summary or review.
There are 4 variations of this device in US. One for each carrier. T-Mo has a SGH-T999L as well as T999N. Those 2 have different radio antenna but rest the same. So if you check for roms on the 4 carriers sub forums, you will se plenty roms.
A lot of developers have made the roms for ATT Version SGH-I747. People realized it works just fine for T-Mo version. So these are called ATT/TMO roms. To my knowledge Slim, Illusion, Pacman and Liquid offer version 4.3 All of these are AOSP 'ish. :laugh: I personally used to use Liquid but after a lot of shopping around, moved to Slim Rom. I am told KitKat version of Slim, the SlimKat is around the corner. Their current 4.3 version has been rock solid and is out for quiet some time. If you liked the Nexus experience, you will like Slim equally.

Liquid most definitely is AOSP. Not sure but I think the other one is too. I haven't seen any kang there.
