Galaxy S3 (I9300-UK) w/ CM10 JB vs Galaxy nexus.

Hey guys,
First post here
Literally just flashed my S3 the other day to cm10 jelly bean ressurection remix the other day, and although its fast and what I'm after, it just doesn't feel as stable or, ERM how to put it...'authentic' as stock jelly bean on the nexus.
My dilemma is, I'm actually thinking of selling my S3 for galaxy nexus.
Opinions?

I'm not sure what you mean by "authentic"...?
The S3 still has way better specs, and pair it with AOSP and its far better than a Galaxy Nexus

Huge N00B question here,
What's 'AOSP'?

Yup, basically all Nexii are AOSP and the only reason the S 3 is really "worse" is because of touchwiz and slower update (of course tw is a preference thing).
But all CM roms are AOSP so you pretty much have the nexus thing going on your S3

S3 or Note II

Yes another thread. But I currently have the s3 and am thinking of getting the note 2. Only thing is I don't want to be like a beta tester for VZW. Should I go for it or stick with the s3. I have unlimited data so not a problem

With S3 now having multi Window support from 4.1.2 the only reason to get a note would be the S Pen, and 2GB RAM unless you have the i9305 and the bigger screen..

Your in the wrong forum...d2vzw has 2gb of ram. Also fixed your post.

What's multi window support?
Via my Google Galaxy S3 running magic beans

I've been following multi window since the note 2 was released and everything I've read says its to heavily integrated into touchwiz for it to be portable, we will most likely not see multi window until we get a 4.1.2 touchwiz leak

OP-
I would put [REQ] at the start of the thread title. Might tame the flame meter a bit

If we ever get the OTA it will have this.

After looking through the code/mods for the SGS2 mutliwindow mod, its not really portable to I535VRBLK3. The smali code mods/deletions arent there in 4.1.1 TW builds. And it looks like the Window Manager smali code would have to be completely re-written.
It might be possible to write a multiwindow mod from scratch for 4.1.1 TW, but you'd have to really know alot about smali code.
So, while it may be possible, its not probable that it will happen in 4.1.1 TW builds.

ok i'm confused lol the I9300 is a galaxy s3 not s2 right? The link I posted in op is for the I9300? But it did say 4.1.2 and our leaks are 4.1.1 so my belief would be it would work if we had 4.1.2 so I guess my question would be how different is the framework between 4.1.1 and 4.1.2 or between the I9300 and the I575 ? still learning so any help would be very much appreciated.

The really big difference beteween the intl (I9300) and the I535 is the architecture. Intl S3 has a quad core proc, so any build would be totally incompatible between the two.
The posted mod for the S2 seemed more viable to me, but the 4.1.2 TW build has some hidden stuff in it that just isn't in 4.1.1 TW builds.
In short, a 4.1.2 TW build with multiwindow pretty much already there (like the build that the S2 got) is what we need. Also, don't forget, this is part of TouchWiz, not android, so the code isn't freely available anywhere. We get to rely on VZW/Samsung for scraps from the table.
Hope that helps,
ALQI

Helps a lot thanks!

If say sprint gets a 4.1.2 leak, could the leak be ported to the vzw s3 and then someone add the multi view window feature from a note 2?

If sprint gets 4.1.2 its probably already gonna have it, but until 4.1.2 I don't see this happening, I been trying for weeks now but as I said before maybe a more talented dev can get it working but I wouldn't count on it.

Over in the sprint s3 section there is a 4.1.1 touchwiz rom with multi view somewhat working

Can i use a T-Mobile ROM on Verizon s3?

I switched to T-Mobile today. I'm using my Verizon s3. I have data and can make calls and text. And I only get 2g....which is know is because of the radio in the phone. But I'm just wondering if I can put a T-Mobile ROM on my Verizon s3 since I have their service and what not. Its for nothing more than an esthetic thing for me.

A lot of the ROMs for the US S3 are shared between carrier editions. Which ROM are you interested in specifically?

Well that was going to be my next question. I currently use clean ROM. Is there a ROM comparable to that?
