I love ROMs like AOKP but pure android lacks many of the extras that Samsung packs into the TW ROM. The biggest thing for me is the camera on the AOSP ROMs. I use my camera and lot and the basic camera isn't enough for me. But that's about it. I love the updates and clean feel.

All the tw features keep me on tw.

I personally love the "pure Google" look and feel. Very simplistic and fast. Not to say the TW ROMs aren't fast as well on this phone, but I like the AOSP feel a little more, even if I do have to occasionally restore my TW ROM to use some of the TW features (PRL updates, etc.)

Aosp just for reliability and its getting allot faster then two variants

AOSP means Android Open Source Project.
In other words AOSP is the default build that is pure and unchanged from what Google puts out.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2

I like the support and features of aosp based roms but at the same time i have to go to tw which is native to the phone because I don't have to worry about bugs or compatibility issues. Also the camera takes much better pictures on touchwiz vs aokp

I think the only way to get the true google experience is to get a nexus since the proprietary drivers are already there and not much modification is needed.
TW throws the heat man I flashed codename last night played around a bit and went straight back to TW the features on it are just so more refined on this device even without root. This is the second time (1st being the Photon) I'd just prefer not to add custom roms or anything really since everything is already so smooth and already there. Maybe when CM10 goes to official builds I'll go back but by then I'll already have the Note 2 and Android 4.2 or 5.0 whatever will be out and possibly all CM10 work will stop.

Once CM10 is finalized I could see that being my daily driver. Touchwiz is cool but there something beautiful about the simplistic look and feel of AOSP builds

If i flash a CM10 nightly just like normal, do i have to do anything special to go back to a touchwiz rom? Or do i just go back in recovery and restore it or install a new one?

I like AOSP but in this phone it lacks many things. By example full screen camera, and too many options that aren't available. I used CM9 in my Epic 4g because it was ICS. Now the experience of TW with ICS is other. I can wait for JB with TW.

I have been a big CM fan since I first got it on my HTC Sensation. I have to say now that I have the SIII I probably won't put CM on here. This phone is amazing just as it is, mostly. Had to root it obviously but I'm running stock rooted and I can't see myself ever changing that. Threw on derkernels alpha kernels to get some extra cpu speed. Not that it really needs it though. I absolutely love the camera. AOSP really doesnt have anything on this ROM. Which is something I never thought I'd say. On any phone.... Ever.

Sammie did a great job with TW on this bad boy. I used to flash CM for the lock screen features, notification toggles, speed, and battery life improvements. TW has all that now. Actually, its awesome but kinda sucks cuz it takes some of the excitement away from flashing new roms. Still, once JB is stable, I'll probably use AOSP more frequently.

What is the BEST stable ROM? For a beginner

all roms will have SOME bugs on them, even stock ones. I suggest trying a few 4.04 touchwiz based ones such as KOODO or JK, and moving from there to a AOSP based 4.1 or 4.2 rom or a 4.12 leak.

Anything Jedi
Haven't been disappointed since I bought this phone

CM10.0 Stable - I find it smoother and faster compared to Touchwiz roms.

I say go to jedi mind trick or jedi jelly. Both are extremely smooth and stable.

Cyanogenmod 10 was my first ROM and I think it's pretty easy to install and use. Recently I started using PACman and it's pretty easy to use too. Just make sure you know what you're doing before you start romming!

I liked aokp because of all of the features it offered but the battery life on my tmobile galaxy s2 was not the greatest. i'm currently rocking sons of android build 2, from the maker of the jedi roms.

Nice rom for begginers
Here is a good ROM I have found. everything works. The only down side i have noticed is the call quality. but if you use bluetooth or wifi calling it is crystal clear.

Embryo 6-8, just awesome my favorite to date, another one I liked was JMT but that was ICS 4.0.3, it ran great but I felt that I downgraded since my stock ROM was 4.0.4. Others I tried were AOKP 4.2.2 M1 B5, just too AOSP looking for my taste, had random crashes, Jedi Jelly this one just stuck on booting.
So:
#1 Embryo 6-8, overclocked to 1.78 using samsung governer
#2 Stock 4.0.4 Koodo
#3 JMT

Whats a good touchwiz slim ROM?

I got a s3 for my gf.. So far I tried out liquid smooth and AOKP. I'm getting slight lag in them and fc in navigation.. I don't have time to keep trying out other roms. I just wanna go to a stable stock touchwiz ROM with a custom kernel then give her the darn phone lol. Please recommend me any thanks.

were you trying the latest ROMs with the 3.4 kernel or the previous 3.0 kernel releases? if you are flashing the most recent ones with the 3.4 kernel, this could be the source of your issues as they are having some stability issues atm.
these threads tend to get shut down quickly. browse over the android development section. check out csrom thebmb

Touchwiz and slim are not usually found in the same sentence..

What's the difference between PAC-Man ROM and Vanilla RootBox?

apart from android version 4.2.2 vs 4.3.... What's the difference between PAC-Man ROM and Vanilla RootBox
i see that they both combine the goodies from CM, AOKP, and PA
anyone with experiences from both?

Honestly imho, all of them are practically the same. Probably with a few different tweaks and mods, that the DEV may add in:thumbup:. But only one, Will know what they like on there PHONE. After ruining a few Rom's of there choice!
Testing ProBam which is basically all of them combined...

What rom are you using?

Guys, Im just a newbie here and I would like to ask the community on what rom are you all currently using. I just want to know if there are any roms out there that are stable and well optimized a rom that will not cause any kernel crashes or any sort of those issues. Since I had a previous bad experience with paranoid android where it caused alot of kernel crashes which ended in a bootloop. Any suggestions will be appreciated thanks !

Only suggestion you will get is to try them all and stick with the one you like. It's a matter of taste. I recommend to mod stock rom with xposed framework and stick with it. No custom rom made of scratch will be better than an optimized software.
Sent from stock GT-I9505/smart phones,dumb people.

Stock rom is probably your best option. You could use Epsilon rom, which has some extra goodies added to the stock rom. But if you want to try something else I would suggest LiquidSmooth - it's really fast and has quite a neat line-up of customization options.

LiquidSmooth and Vanir ROM. Try the latest builds. Quite fast, not as stable as Stock, but really great to use.

+1 for Vanir.

Yeah Vanir is great, but i must say that CM10.2 RC1 is also good.

Which rom has best battery life?
