Hi. I am actually looking up to own it asap. But I want to know though rooting is helpful in moving apss to sd does it affect the features of the phone. Like.... degrages the quality of music or freezes more often?
Plz tell me about the battery life is it better that samsung galaxy S .
Hello friends! I'm not a noob but I'm in a very stupid situation! I was a user of SGSII for 5 month and today just bought my GNex. This phone is awesome however i noticed it has a lot of lugs here and there. To be honest we can't blame third party developers for lags in their apps cuz even Google's stock launcher is lugging like a sh*t (i mean app drawer for instance) I am very disappointed with this to be honest So, with my GSII i got used to speed and i'm not able to use the phone which lags so much like Gnex , i can return it in seven days but if i will flash somptin custom shop won't take it back that's why i cant try any custom ROms.....So plesase dear friends tell me if i flash something custom from iur developers section will i get rid of lags that we face in official 4.0.2?

If you browse through the forum, you'll see that most 4.0.3 roms don't have this lag. You can try one of them. I'm a big time CM supporter, but AOKP is also very nice.

Okay thanks! then i'll try ! So it turns to be a software problem not weaker hardware right?
Don't use live wallpapers either if you are

Hi, this is what I've written just yesterday in another thread here on XDA:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22567913&postcount=80
I've got the same exact feelings as you have and really hope these lags and jitters are solved with newer versions of ICS.
I too have not noticed any lag from any rom, I'm sorry guys but I just don't see it. Maybe these ppl need to update to 4.0.3. Or stop comparing to their other galaxy devices

Surely if using a 4.0.3 version solves the problem I'll be very happy.
Comparing a phone to another of the same level is normal and if one feels fluid and the other one jitters there must be something wrong or in the hardware or in optimizing the software.
I continue to think that a 1,2Ghz, 1GB RAM device should not have the slightest lag.
Dear Arc s users,
I had this great phone for 2 years and i did the installation of some roms to try which is the best rom for performance and i remember that the 4.4.4 roms are the best.
Now i have bought an htc one m7 and after 3 months that my Arc s was inutilized, i decided to give it to my sister.
I did the flash of slim rom and the first impression was GREAT! Good performance and stability. But my sister says that the video are not working (YouTube and Facebook) and the app on sd are not working.
I know that there isn't the perfect rom, But i just would like to know what is, at the moment, the stable rom for our phone.
It does not matter if it is gb, jb or kk (my sister doesn't know the difference). I just need a Good rom.
Please could You help me to find the Good one?
Thank you so much and sorry if i do this question, But i love this phone and i would like to see it in use instead to see it on my desktop.
Thank you again.
All Custom Rom is the best , Just try and see what is the best for you

flash the Legacy Xperia ROM build 06/09/14 its nearly bugless, very good for daily use. no battery drains, all important stuff works. (incl. video).
your sis will have fun.
Thanks!
I'm using Carbon and its so smooth and no lag....
i am not saying that this is the best because all the custom rom
can improve your phone
Hi guys, im Kia.. Maybe someone knows me from G2 forum or from YouTube, never mind I just sold my G2 and im thinking what phone should i buy now. Money is not problem, theres no money haha lol . I was looking for some phone that has great dev support and good camera screen etc.. ( i will use my next phone like 6 months, im waiting for some new phones to be realised but need one immediatly) So did u suggest my G3 or to buy something else, instead Note 4 (i dont like design of it).... Hows battery life? And is it overheating when u play games and things like that? I heard some comments on youtube about overheating but if theres some better kernel than stock ofc i will install it... So if u suggest me G3 expect one ROM Reviewer in this awesome community. Thanks for any help or reply and yeah check my channel if u want And yeah, is there bootloader in G3 that will not let me install ROMs till i unlock it or ? (I dont think so just asking to be sure ;D )

The g3, fells amazing even though its plastic. I used the phone from, 7 a clock in the morning to 4 at the night, and it only used 30% of battery life. This is with stock rom, no changes have been made. I fell it's a really solid phone, nice camera good screen, and fast! And we got offical cm12 now So just ask here or pm me, if you got any questions And the overheating thing was fixed with a update i belive. Atleast i don't have it. And all i had to do, for getting custom rom, was root the phone install twrp and the flash nothing else

Here`s my 2 cents:
1. Rooting the device is fairly simple imo. Downgrade to a KK rom, root it with PurpleDrake, flash a custom recovery and then you can flash a custom rom/kernel.
2. I`am not a big gamer but when i do i seldomly experience the thermal throttling issue. Maybe it kicks in during extensive gaming.
3. I think Cloudy 2.1 is the best stock based cutom rom atm which is very stable and fast.
4. Haven`t flashed custom kernels so far so can`t give you any personal xperience
Overall its a great device, i have the 32/3GB device whivh is the one to get imo. The camera is excellent in daytime/with sufficient light but in darker conditions pics can be a bit grainy.

Good luck and enjoy
cm 12 stable and camera better than stock ?
I loved oneplus one cm11s the customization of it? Does cm12 have all those features too? And is it on lollipop or kitkat base ? Too bad Xposed doesn't support lollipop yet....
In the price range you can't get much better than the G3. Good looking phone, full of potential.
Hi guys. I have not rooted a device since I went bananas with ROMs for my HTC Hero back in the days, so I would appreciate some help.
I love my Pro 8.4 (T325), but it starts to feel old. I want update it. What is the most suitable ROM for me if I would like to focus on performance, and maybe battery life (a bit contradictory, I know, but a good mix). I don't care about the camera, so Nougat is fine.
Also, is there a good guide on how to install ROMs? I found a good rooting guide that I can use though.
Thanks in advance
