Former Eris folks....what ROM are you using?

Hey all,
Just found the "who's here from the Eris forum" thread and was going to post there, except it's closed.
Wondering what you former Eris folks are running for ROMs on the TBolt, how you like them and the differences you find between nanding and flashing.
Reading up on the TBolt ROMs it seems a bit more complicated than 'download and flash'
thoughts?
Thanks
~Me.

Hey man,
Not much different once you get used to CWR, instead of Amon.
Personally, I don't use/trust/like Rom Manager and just download all roms with my pc, load onto my SD and flash as normal. Took a bit to find Dalvik cache wipe but no problems since then. And I actually like the feature of having to scroll down through a bazillion "no"s to get to the flash this zip command.
I'm running Virus Sense version rom but using ADW instead of Sense and using Ziggy's kernels. I got a boot loop loading the power control zip on NonSense version so I just removed everything I don't use.
Flashed ZHP's blackedout mms and aosp dialer and I'm very happy with this beast.
I've actually been using my Eris as a music player at work, such a small screen, I think it's what is making me need glasses now, can't have anything to do with getting older.....

I had Taz's ROM on my Eris and now I am running BAMF 1.6.3nte. At first I was freaked out at not having Amon but I have been able to use CWR flawlessly so far.

Im using the broken CM7 pre-alpha as my daily driver
everything works except for 4g but that will come soon and few other items are broken but for a pr-alpha its a dam good rom
ps flash an aosp kernel too

Stock Rom here I need a Rom to come out that makes me want to root/flash my bolt. Oh well there's always tomorrow!

Lol chimp everyone thinks Ur a dude

Just like Bimmer I do everything manually (without rom mananger). On the Eris I bounced back and forth between Tazz,s and Shed's CM builds. On the TBolt I've been pretty happy with Das BAMF roms. These TB forums are a world different than the Eris forums.

No worries at all, "chimpsnest" isn't really a very froo-froo girly name like "MrsTBoltLover" (hey,that's a good one), and my avatar is a little manly too - if I didn't disagree w/the "pinking" of sports symbols I'd throw a pinked out Bruins B up there, but I find that blasphemous
My BF calls me a phone dork and loved picking on me when I was tweaking my Eris. I tell him he's just jealous w/his Moto Droid Pro and lack of rooting and greatness I think he's just waiting for me to mess my phone up, ever the pessimist
If I do flash ROMs (which I'm starting to feel the itch to do) I think I will do it via the boot menu instead of ROM manager, so I guess I'd just do Power/Volume down to get in there, then "recovery" which gets me into CWM, then the same data wiping and dalvik wiping, then install zip from SD card and (hopefully) off I'd go.
What is it that ROM manager does - just sort of simplify the process? The fact that it's a program makes me wonder what happens if I can't get back into my phone and back into the program?
I do miss the folks from our little forum, seems we had a great crew and it's not quite the same here (still great people, but you know what I mean).
Loving the Bolt, I'm lucky to be in a 4G area 90% of the time, so it would be nice to have a ROM that has that capability.

Running BAMF 1.1 stripped....awesome!!!
Prior to that lightning rom 3.3.1 also awesome...those seem to be the 2 most stable imo

And as for cwr ..took me a little bit to get used to it but its pretty much the same as amon in theory ....a bit more shuffling around though but it seems to work just fine.

Hey Chimp, I'm just running stock root with Adrynalyne's 4.4.7 kernel. It's definitely good to see so many eris folks here. Right now I haven't flashed any custom roms so I can stay away from crack flashing. We'll see how long that lasts, lol.

Oooh, I can flash just a kernel, hadn't thought of that! So, what has this Kernel done for ya? Do you notice differences w/it, battery life, etc? Does it mess w/4G at all?
Feels like starting the learning process all over again

FWIW I have never had an issue using rom manager on either the Fascinate or TB since moving on from the Eris. I t just does all the steps for you. Reboots recovery,wipes what needs wiping(minus your bum),flashes then reboots. It's a very handy program.
As far as the roms go I have only ever used bamf and cm7. Adryn and TDB did amazing work on the Fascinate and I trust their work. I'm also very much looking forward to what JT and Kaos have up their sleeves for this monster.
I'm not sure there is a "best" kernel out there right now as all phones react differently but once again I have great luck with both Adryn's and droids kernels.
Good luck getting your phone set up and don't be afraid of flashing due to the different recovery. While this forum is not as close nit and familiar as the Eris people, once you learn who to trust and ask questions too the support you will receive will be just as good.

I did notice battery improvement after flashing 4.3 kernel but then after the 4g outage my battery went down hill. So I won't blame the kernel, as I believe it is the network. And there has been no ill effects on 4g.

Feedback Needed From The Thunderbolt Community

If you recently purchased a Thunderbolt ....
You may be in the same boat as me, looking at rooting. Everyone is talking about gingerbread coming to our phones. I haven't seen an OTA as of yet, but it has leaked. located here->
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1225752
Now,
I know that you can root very easy here->
http://revolutionary.io/
and I would play close attention to this video as it provides detailed instructions ->
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-UK_CiB2SYk
**WAIT**
Before you dive in, here comes my question.
If you have done your research, there are alot and I mean ALOT of roms to flash for the thunderbolt.
I would like some feedback as to what rom you have flashed.
This will help anyone new to the thunderbolt party as well as myself.
I have yet to make a decision on rooting or waiting.
Your feedback below please.
Thank you all in advance
And as ALWAYS,
Thank you to all the developers who are working there butts off !

I tried out team bamf first, but then they jumped ship to their own forum. So then droidtheory started releasing roms and jumped to him and haven't looked back.
He has a sense and aosp (cm7) version and also dhacker and xpack have released their own versions based off of droidtheory's work.
xpack's senseless rom is very nice. Has the sense base so gps and nfl network work right out of the gate, but no sense (adw launcher instead) so its fast and smooth.

You can't go wrong with DroidTh3orys ROMS.

Root. Now. That way you can make your choice when/if GB actually comes. You can always go back to stock unrooted. You may not be able to root with the new OTA.
Roms? Like many things they are a personal choice that no one can make for you. Having flashed them all, I can tell you they have improved dramatically since I got my bolt in May. If you choose to root, do yourself a favor and try several. You will find the Rom that suits your taste and needs.

I have flashed every possible ROM on my tobolt.
Sense Based: Gingeritis or Cl3anTh3ory

100% agree with this guy.

Us leaving XDA doesn't change anything about the quality of our roms. Fact is, many of our innovations end up in other roms anyway (ask ihtfp69 and erishasnobattery).
You can find us at teambamf.net, or rootzwiki.com.
There are many roms to choose from out there. Try them all, then decide.

Thank you all for your feedback. I made sure to click the Thank You buttons on all of your comments.
Once again thanks for the quick response. will be flashing later on today.
Im hoping this post may help some new Thunderbolt owners.

**Every phone behaves differently just want to add this before anything.
Multiple reasons, first and foremost my phone behaved the best with ShiftAO5P. I had a very smooth running phone and an amazing battery life with all the bells and whistles turned on. I went from 4 am in the morning to almost 6 in the evening without a charge. I am a moderate to heavy user, my battery does not last that long EVER.
2nd, choices with the rom was amazing multiple governers, mulitple kernels you can try them all till you find the best combo.
3rd, support DT is very active on the forum so answers and issues are resolved very fast.

I have flashed almost every Rom for the TB.
My recs are
Sense: DroidTh3orys Sense Rome
AOSP: CM7 or Omfgb for those who like tweaks. TheRom for those who want a vanilla experience.

Thanks for getting back to me on this. I will have to give ShiftAO5P a try.

I've been running dasBamf Roms for a month now and love them. I am currently on UberBamf PR3. every Tbolt is different, so experiment and see what works best for YOU. After you install each ROM, make a back up of it. That way, if you install one, that you don't like, you can revert.

I like a fast, customizable ROM without all the Sense bloat so I use Liquid Thundersense. I've only had this phone for 5 days so I really have no other Thunderbolt ROM to compare it to (I ran Gingeritis for a couple hours and the stock ROM only long enough to download Gingeritis to the device; I just hate Sense lol). As far as it goes though I've owned five Android devices total and have rooted and ran custom ROMs on all of them. Only way to go IMHO.

SynergyROM Qs

First off, can anyone supply me with a mirror d/l link for the latest SynergyROM? I'm stuck at work doing nothing for the next few hours and work internet is blocking the download site.
Second, I brand new to the S3 (few days), I'm assuming SynergyROM is the best out there right now correct? (Gauging by how many views the page has) On that note is it still being updated regularly? I came from a Samsung Charge and we were lucky to see an update for our single ROM every few months.
Thanks!

Hi, I had my s3 for a couple days, the first rom i threw on was synergyrom, Its good, but than I decided 2 days ago to try cleanrom, and so far so good. Cleanrom gives you some options for the install. My benchmark score was better on this room too. Check it out, A few others here have also went that route to cleanrom. Synergyrom is good tho, not dissing that one at all.

synergy was the first rom i flashed on my s3.

for waht its worth, the only thing i miss from Synergy is the touchwiz motion controls. I REALLLY liked smart alert.

I can't believe how many options I have! I don't know what to do! I guess I'll just have to try em all! I'm used to only having one ROM to choose from coming from the Charge lol... I think I'm going to start with CleanROM though based on what I've been reading in threads. Thanks all

are you not on 4g? Use the power in your hands Even if you need the computer to root/Odin you can still download all to the phone then connect via USB to copy to your PC.
Oh and+1 for Synergy. It has been great, especially with the new Trinity kernel.

Synergy rocks, plus the dark horse rises theme is to die for, I find myself staring at the dialer often-its mesmerizing! Been on synergy from the early r60's builds up to current and have no plans on changing. Messed around with almost all of the cm based jb rom's, but switched back to synergy. The aosp jb rom's in my opinion do not properly show the S3 off as good as the custom tw based ICS rom's. Haven't used clean rom yet though, spec wise it looks fantastic, looks wise-ok. Would love to hear a convincing motivational speach on why I should change though!

Synergy vs cleanrom

So I have been on cleanrom and cleankernel for a few weeks now and I am extremely happy.
Some of you would say why change then? Well since the very beginning I've been curious about synergy.
For you guys that have been on both, how do they compare? In stability, fc, battery life, etc?
Thanks for you feedback.

I was on CleanRom with it's kernel for a while, never tried synergy.
I highly recommend cleanrom though. Very stable, very slick. Battery life was good (though I have an extended battery, so that might skew my interpretations).
In my opinion, flip a coin and try one. Use it for a few days, then use titanium backup or do a nandroid then try the other for a few days. simple enough to revert if you've got both TB and nandroid backups.
Sorry that probably isn't the perfect answer for you, but it is *really* easy to revert back to a nandroid backup if you don't mind going through the setup process on the new ROM.

Oh yeah, I have the nanodroid/TB process down to a T, I came from a samsung fascinate phone and I flashed on it every rom there ever was, froyo, gingerbread, ics, asop, apko, miui, cm, you name it.
I just didnt want to waste time on synergy if the rom is clearly inferior to cleanrom. I might just have to give it a try.
Thanks.

Personally I prefer Synergy. Besides including Google Now it seems smoother for me. Battery life is comparable or possibly slightly better. Just backup your ROM and give it a try, I think you'll like it.

I have been on synergy since the beginning. It's awesome and I'm at 1.99 using clean kernel.
I haven't used clean rom only his kernel but have heard great things about the rom too.
synergized and Ikilling

I have used both roms and Synergy seems a little more stable, slightly better battery life, better GPS lock, and Google now. I am on R73.
I have since quit flashing other roms and I have been using Synergy for several weeks now.

I have used both myself & definitely think that CleanROM/kernel is the smoother more stable of the two.

Synergy R73 with trinity 7 kernel, dark horse rises theme - a match made in the heavens. If you want a smoother than stock, stock feel, use cleanrom. If you want the ultimate modified stock ics (touchwiz) use synergy. Personally I think the stable synergy 4.0 rom is far superior to any jb that's available to us currently. And besides, half the fun of rooting is to get rid of "stock".

I'm on Synergy 73, having went through through the releases then select nightlies but am going to try Cleanrom next. Synergy is stable, and everything just plain works.

cleanrom for me

Synergy offers more features, CleanRom is more stable. To me it's that simple. I like both. A good installation of CleanRom will give you the best benchmarking scores of any setup on the S3. A good version of Synergy has nearly stock levels of stability with tons of added functionality.

These threads are really pointless. When it comes to roms you have to try them out for yourself. Each rom runs on each phone different. Each person's preferences is different also.
Install each and see what you like best and what works best for you and your phone. Both are great and I've ran both.
synergized and Ikilling

Well I respectfully disagree. Knowing a lot about a product before trying it out is not a waste of time. Maybe one of them has a specific feature that is a "must have" for someone - knowing this in advance eliminates having to flash it to try.
I personally was deciding between the two (and I'm sure I'll try both), but this thread has helped me choose which I will start with. I love comparison threads. It's a forum - why not discuss ROMs?

You should read each rom thread and look at the features to decide which to try first. Reading what people here tell you doesn't mean you'll share that same experience. This why you should just experiment yourself make a backup and try both and stick with what performs to your standards better.

[Q] New to S3. ROM advice?

I just got my s3 yesterday and this is my first samsung devices, but I'm not new to android. Now I know that I could do my own research, but I'm hoping for some advice/info from those willing to share. I'm already rooted with an unlocked boot loader, so now I'm looking for a ROM. What's your favorite ROM/kernel combination for speed and stability, if you're OC'd, what app do you use (i.e. kernel tuner), and what in particular do you like about that ROM?
Also, any general info about the s3 that I should know would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

please do a search and read through the threads. there are guides with impressions all over the place.
everyone needs something different out of their rom so there is nobody who can answer this question except for you.
make sure youre rooted, and your bootloader is unlocked.
these threads get closed frqeuently.

Instead of giving you the same run-of-the-mill find yourself answer here's my opinion. If you're into aosp ROMs liquid smooth, aokp and paranoid seem to be the best. Me personal e, I like TouchWiz just because they seem to have the least amount of bugs. Jelly beans, axis and hyperdrive have the most customizing options, but the general consensus for stability and performance is clean rom. Jelly beans is TouchWiz with an aosp look. But clean rom is definitely the most stable. As far as kernels go the big two are kt 747 and lean kernel. You can't really go wrong with either one. 747 has a higher overclocking rate and a application to tweak the settings provided with it. Leankernel is set straight out the box and use an aftermarket CPU Tweaker of your choice to tune it. Hope this helps.

1. These threads tend to get shut down a lot since a lot of new S3 users keep posting them.
2 . You are going to get either the "find it yourself " response or be recommended the popular ROMs which are Jelly Beans, Cleanrom, Liquid Smooth, AOKP, Carbon, Axis and Paranoid Android which is okay as long as it is what you want.
3. AOSP 4.2 ROMs don't have a strong signal strength like Touchwiz.
The reality is that there are a lot more ROMs then the standard fare that keeps getting recommended for both TW and AOSP. There is Plasma, Hellsrom, MDOB , Sons Of Android, Pure Google, Xtremeperia, and so much more that I can't think of them now. My question to you is what do you want in a ROM? The reason I asked this question is I find A LOT more helpful to make recommendations based on your interest rather randomly saying "[insert popular ROM here] is awesome!".

I agree with Shaftamle... I downloaded Hero's AxisM rls18 this morning and been using/playing with rom. It is beast. Hyperdrive is another good one. There is also Plasma VIII and Synergy, also very good. My best experience with kernels is lean kernel, but I am trying Zeus' newest version. Seems to be working well and good battery life.

Personally I've had my run of the mill with CleanROM releases, Synergy, and Liquid myself. Mostly using the stock kernal or K747. But I've been quite fond lately and been going back and forth on Sbreen's Hyperdrive releases dating back to RLS5. Granted his RLS10 may be a little premature with the manual MMS fix you have to do, its a little power hungry this time around, but definitely gives us a nice look and speedy feel from the upcoming S4. Currently running Hyperdrive RLS11 with his built Zeus kernal. :good:

I haven't got my gs3 yet but are aosp ROMs really that unstable? I love me some pacman on my epic 4g touch...

It's not that they're unstable, they aren't (most, anyway), but they don't fully support the GS3's hardware capabilities.

Everything i use for aosp works. It's as stable as touch wiz for me.
There are some issues as stated, but everyone uses their phones differently

I really like Carbon Rom 1.6.1. Only issue i'm having is picture messages not sending 100% of the time....kinda annoying

Ill use gmail, hybrid preferences in pacman ROMs, Nav bar, ability to change everything up, and with the gs3, NFC!
