Which ICS rom is faster than stock, 100% functional/stable? - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

Hi,
I am really interested in trying out CM10 or one of the AOSP roms but I think having a 'regular' rom that is 100% functional would be a good 'main' rom. Can I get a suggestion of a good ICS TW rom that is better than stock but 100% functional?
I am experiencing amazing battery life with the stock rooted rom, but the nightly push from verizon to update the rom is driving me nuts.
Thanks,
Rich

Cleanrom, beans, and synergy are the big ones. Everyone has a preference. Mine is synergy. Have to test to find what yours is.

Why not just freeze the update to your stock rom. I'm stock rooted. I used titanium to freeze it. Now I don't get the update notices anymore

Beans v13
I'm using Beans rom version 13. Even the previous versions were rock solid. When I have time I'm moving to taste of Beans Jelly Bean.

I can't seem to find a link for beans rom? Can someone post a link please? Also, is it only for verizon S3 or it works with international as well?

This should be the link to Bean's rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1768209
My choice would be Synergy r73 however - smooth and dependable.

[Q] Current ROM that contains Samsung features

I wasn't able to find it anywhere in the original development, none of the ROMs even mention it. Some of the Samsung features were nice, like smart stay, direct call, smart alert, etc.; and I wanted to know if there was any ROM that had these features still in it.
Or maybe there is a program that lets you download these apps/features standalone.
Thanks
I'm using CleanRom and it has all the good stuff that I used (namely Smart Stay and S-Memo). During the install, you can optionally include most all of the Samsung apps. It's still based on the stock rom.
Clean rom, synergy, beans, the new jelly bomb, I'm sure there might be more
Anyrom that is stock TW and not AOKP/CM.
Like everyone has said and will say, you're looking for a TouchWiz rom.
Edit: Ninja'd lol

CleanROM Question

I would like to flash to the CleanROM 2.5
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1832070
But it says it's based on G7.
My current baseband for my GS3 is the VRALHE.
Can I still use it?
I know there is another CleanROM Ultra Lite, but I would like to aroma features.
Yes you can do that. No problem.
Your modem and RPM will still be HE, but kernel and system will be G7.

I've only used CR of those three but am a happy camper and have no reason to switch.
Using CleanROM and I think this is better.
Less crap to deal with.
I like the clean-ness lol
I use cleanrom 2.1 soley for the kernel and love it. I will upgrade to 2.5 once the source code is released so cleankernel can be updated to work with it correctly.
Ive pretty much have tried every rom and kernel for this phone and always comeback to cleanrom if that helps you to choose. Its pretty much personal preference so try all of em. Just make sure if the rom comes with a kernel to flash back a stock kernel if the next rom isnt compatiable with it.

I throw a vote in for CleanROM as well, works flawlessly. I have had no reboots, problems, etc.
Also its easy to throw on add-ons. Superfast.

Yes. I'm using it with all HE based firmware/kernel/radio. Once you flash CleanROM 2.5 it will install the G7 kernel. I went ahead and flashed the HE kernel back afterwards, and it's been running great for me. Not everyone has the same results, so you may want to keep some nandroid backups of various combinations until you find one you are happy with.
I've tried most of the current ROMs out there, and of the 3, I like CleanRom. However, my fav right now is Liquidsmooth.

Will there ever be a Touch Wiz 5.0 rom?

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"

[Q] What ROMs can I choose from?

Hi, just bought a GS3 Verizon. I want it rooted, and working without well known bugs.(GPS, calling, almost no bugs) I prefer 4.1 jelly bean. What ROM should I choose? The ROM based on the leaked VZW ROM?

Stock deodexed j1 touchwiz...if you look around you can manually add what mods you want. I prefer this over flashing the custom touchwiz rom variants....seems less buggy and smoother imo.

I've been having good luck with Synegy's latest. Smooth, good performance, good battery, and just enough added functionality over stock to make it work well.
I liked clean rom, jellywiz, and my current rom tasteofbeans 3.1. They all were :good:

What about using separate mods makes it less buggy?

Because you flash them 1 at a time and if you flash one and it made everything bug out you can just nandroid back. If your on a ROM with a crap load of tweaks and mods and something goes wrong you're just screwed until the dev can figure out which mod he added is causing the problems. A lot of the time the mod bugs are left alone until all the big bugs are worked out and then they track down what's causing the smaller bugs

SGS3 Vanilla JB Rom?

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:

That is I9003 rom and will hard brick the I535.
I'm very happy with Jelly Beans ROM... It is aosp themed but touch wiz based! Best of both worlds if anybody was looking for an aosp ROM check this out
