i tried jelly wiz, it was ok
there are a bunch of options for JB synergy just came out with a nice stable rom its under the ics thread.
As for not many JB rooms I am under the impression that there will be more once we gay an official vzw leak. Until then I have seen that people are saying the current roms are good but may not be dd ready.
Disclosure: I am in no way bashing any roms or trying to deter people from trying roms I am just stating what I have read on here when I was looking at roms.

Hey everybody I just switched to DROID from using ios the past 4 years and I'm really happy with my choice. The iPhone 5 was the last straw for me so instead I picked up a feature packed galaxy siii. I want to thank you guys for the tutorials you guys have posted as it really helped in understanding how to flash the custom roms. I have my siii set just how I want. I just have one question if someone doesn't mind answering. When the official jellybean update comes out will I need to revert back to stock rom to update or can I update ota on a custom rom? Please excuse me if I didn't post this in the right section. This is my first post. Thanks for all your hard work.
I believe you would have to revert to stock and then do the ota.

Just wait for one of the Devs to do their magic on Jelly bean when it comes out. I'm sure it wont take them to long to do.
Congrats! Btw, if you're already running a custom rom, then you should probably just wait until the developer updates it, or install a new JellyBean rom when you're ready.

It kinda depends on how long you are willing to wait for the update. You definitely won't be able to accept the OTA update if you are running a custom rom, but devs will have a flashable version on XDA available almost immediately after the official is released. A couple of days later custom roms will start appearing.
Another reason to wait is there is always the possibility that the update will in some way disable root. This has happened before with several VRZ phones. So I would wait(a couple of hrs) till XDA gets their hands on the update before making any moves.

wait for a dev to release the official TouchWiz JB, then wipe data from cwm recovery and flash away. Fyi there currently is a TouchWiz JB leak by Incubus in the dev section, but its has bugs...If your looking for stability; Touchwiz ICS>AOSP(paranoidandroid,aokp,cm10)>Touchwiz JB Leak
And to help you, Synergy is a very stable ICS touchwiz ROM. Paranoid is a very great ROM but it might be a bit confusing for you since you're new with the tablet mod n tweaking APKs and such. CM10 is good but I like AOKP better for the customization

Nitro dont release builds based on a leaks...so until we get a official Touchwiz JB rom from VZW I doubt he will release anything!
Welcome to the Android community!
There are lots of good ROM choices and Jelly bean is available as a teaser if you'd like to check it out
My favorite ICS ROM is Synergy
My favorite JB ROM is Jellywiz
Enjoy and happy flashing !!!
You can make a nandroid backup of your current setup which saves everything, all your data/games. and try one of the current JB roms. I am currently on ICS cleanrom, and been thinking about waiting for a 100% working one to come around. The nandroid backup is so you can easily go back to your old setup if you don't like the newer rom.

He's working on an aosp JB build, has a working alpha right now, but until he gets his device this week, he can't work out the bugs quickly. You will see eclipse...I'm guessing pretty quickly after he gets his phone
He will have a TW Rom out...but I'm sure he will wait for the official JB build for that.

I second that!! Cleanrom is a GREAT first rom and it gives you a chance to mess with overclocking a lil too... Just go in SMALL steps... Although mine is a champ at 1.99ghz & stable as hell! You will finally feel the freedom that you get with Android! OPEN SOURCE baby!! No more damn itunes and buying stuff that isn't really yours..? :laugh: Have a GREAT time surfing the threads but just take some time to read the rules as well cause they are quick to break you off some! (mods) LOL
All I want is a very stable rom that stays true to android and doesn't break any features. Sorry if this is a basic question.
Quick answer is nine of the JB roms are as stable as the ICS ones, and the most stable are TW roms. You have to try out and decide for yourself I guess.
I like paranoid android.
All JB roms have issues. In waiting until CM10 fix the low audio in video record issue then it would be my daily driver.

+1. I am for the Paranoid Android as well. There are some "very minor' nuances but overall its a rock solid ROM. In some other thread i reported that I needed to settle down on a ROM since i was jumping around too much with flashing different ones. This is the one I settled with.

I think this is the first CDMA JB leak for the S3. I hope we get one for Verizon and finally a stable JB rom, but knowing VZW it probably will take a long time.

I was more or less saying that if somebody wanted to try out jelly bean there's the AOSP route and also the Jellywiz rom which is basically flawless except for a few minor things. But i understand that waiting for the verizon leak is agonizing, believe me i'm waiting for it to drop as well.
I was just wondering will there every be a rom based solely on samsung's UI. Like for instance, a rom build on the sg3 build. I like the roms that are out but like all of the have some sort of cm9 (or 10) or AOKP intergration. I would like to see a rom with just samsung's UI (mainly TW 5.0) that is tweaked and just pure awesome.
Embryo is a TW-Only ROM.
If you mean a TouchWiz JellyBean ROM, probably not until we get an official JB release or a JB leak for our phone.

Ya, closest thing you'll get to JB TW is Sky JellyBean. Lot of TW elements with CM10 as the base.
I was just about to ask this. I know we have SkyJB With touchwiz added on top of JB
and Embryo. Both are great roms. But nothing like that stock 4.0 on the sgs3 I was playing around with that bad boy and "i was like if we could get this on our skyrockets there wouldn't be a need to get another phone"

Hello, so far I stuck with stock roms... first ICS now leaked JB... I really would like a plain vanilla jb rom still retaining the great features of the SGS3... can anybody point me in the right direction?

No such thing, as vanilla android is unaltered, i.e. the nexus devices.
I would say that cyanogen mod is probably as close as you'll get. Aokp is close too but has much more customization options.

There isn't one. Use cm10 and don't use the customization. Also you will not have the s3 features like motion controls, camera, etc.
You're best bet is to try a couple out and find what works for you.

I'm gonna work on building vanilla JB rom as soon as the semester ends......don't have enough time till then :\ Should be convenient timing as a lot of the leg-work is already complete
I've already started working on one, but its not looking very promising so far. Its really really difficult getting the build to cooperate, and then once I finally do get it to cooperate thenaybe it won't take too long to get some of the initial kinks ironed out so people can start testing. But at least if I cannot get the bugs worked out enough to post it for people to use there is someone else who will begin working on it shortly. So hopefully we will have a pure AOSP ROM soon, one way or another.

Omega ROM
Give Omega ROM a try, there is an optional to remove all SGS3 default bloatware that comes with it when you flash the ROM.
I am using it because this ROM is having all other SGS3 features like the motion control, stock camera, etc.:good:
