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

Hello guys,
I have recently moved on to official ICS but I heard JB is far more smoother than ICS. I can see there are number of JB custom roms available through the superb effort of our developers. Thing is I am kind of confuse which way to go. In JB I am looking for a stable completly working ROM, which I can rely to use on daily basis for long term.
Some suggestions would be appreciated.
Cheers.

I'm not sure if you could say it's fully working, but I know plenty of people here are using Andromedus as a daily ROM. I think there's a new build coming out soon, but read the thread to find what people are having best success with.
bnd just ported yet another JB ROM over too. Best way is just to try some out. Personally, I love JB but I went back to ICS (the ICE_DS ROM) because I've had a lot of sound issues with Andromedus in all the builds I've tried.
Hope that helps!

I think the best is just to try a few. As you can see in their threads and changelogs every rom still has its limitations. also check out www.blindndumb.com for some awesome (jb and ics) roms for our device
Thanks guys for advices n link. I for sure read lot more n may be try couple of JB roms as well before I stick to one. May be better to do little more research n wait. I hope recently released ics source could facilitate few things for developers. Finger crossed

I use Blindbean for now (not the new one available now) and I like it.
Since I use Jellybean, I don't wanna go back to GB or ICS, to much of a difference.
I mainly make phonecalls and use internet, so I don't really care about camera, pictures, games, music, ...
And for now, it holds up to my expectations. There are off-course some bugs, but for a phone that's that old already, I can deal with that.
(hell, I bought a Xperia U, because the stock HTC desireS was giving up on me, so when I got the Xperia, I could begin to experiment with root/roms and stuff, and now, the newer xperia is on the closet, and I use the HTC again (spec-wise, the desireS and xperia U aren't that different.)
I used to have BlindICE in its latest edition with which I was satisfied, but I've changed to JB with Codename Android and recently JellyTime, both from blindndumb. They are so smooth, I really can't come back either. But I'm also a bit lost concerning the differences between all of these JB roms. From what I saw, none of the 2 were really stable. In Jellytime, video playback can be glitchy, pictures have a green/purple line at the bottom and browsing with chrome shows weird artefacts. Other than that, they work fine. What changes visually in AOKP and CM10 are the ROM menus.

so what do you think which one looks better CM10 or AOKP?
Try both, it's a personal choice
As you can see I am on Androdamus, which is cm10
Tapatalked from Desire S running Androdamus
I run JellyTime R15 as daily, no bugs that are important to the grand scheme of things.
A few weeks ago I tested Andromedus and the latest CM10, and they didn't have FM radio tuner. I listen to the radio almost everyday, so FM radio support is kind of important. This is mostly the reason why I'm still not using Jelly Bean. That and some other little things I enjoy and didn't find, like "render effect", automatic screen brightness control, launcher settings...
I'm kind of new to the ROM flashing scene... Is FM radio one of the last things to become functional on a ROM? Do any of the other ROMs have working FM? I guess it's not a very high-priority item.
I guess I could try to setup a script to automatically download the radio show I listen to, after it's available on the radio station website, then send it to dropbox or something.
I'm usually a very patient guy, waiting for a final release, but it's becoming harder and harder to wait.
edit: By the way, I'm using CM7.2 now
As long as the camera doesn't work I won't use JB Roms.

Should not try Jelly Bean now for Desire S since it is not so stable.
If you want to use the stable ROM, please use this one. I already installed for 4 weeks and it is awesome. But this one is just Android 4.0.4, HT sense 3.6.

Well I've recently swapped to BnD Jelly time and I'm impressed. I've been using Niks CM10 for months and decided to try a kernel 3 ROM. I can't see myself swapping again as Jelly time seems the better daily driver IMO.
I also want to try this Jelly Time but just being cautious, are there any particular bugs you can tell or anything about this Rom or it also has Google Now in it right?!!

Camera works fine in Jelly Time, works perfectly if you download JB Camera+ app.
I personally use CM10 with my Galaxy Mini. Everything works perfectly, but seems there is a problem with the native tethering of both type. 3rs party software solved the problem.

Yes it has everything, including now. The small bugs I've noticed are the brightness sensor is a little laggy, takes a little longer to correct it self to ambient light. Chrome sometimes gets a little buggy, Netflix isnt perfect, front camera doesn't work, video recording is broken and I'm sure there are other small issues I've yet to notice.
None of the above is a deal breaker for me, as we have an increasingly unpopular phone we will always have to expect some issues as a price to pay for the latest os versions.
do we have cm10 for Desire S also?

I'm in the same boat as you. My wife rooted her T869, and installed clockworkmod and wanted the QuickPanel mod, CRT tv animation, and custom boot animation, that she has on her T989, and when she found out that she couldn't because her rom was odexed, she flashed CM10, and while it did have some of the mods she wanted, it lacked the things she liked about the stock ROM such as the mini apps tray, the music player, and the task manager in the system settings.
She has also noticed that the font is way too small for her status bar, but overall, she misses the look and feel from the stock ICS rom. She just wants something that is exactly like the Darkside Evolution ICS 4.0.4 ROM that she has on her T989. It is based on the stock ICS ROM, but has the tweaks she wants and she has the customization options as well.
I have searched and asked if there was a deodexed/zip aligned rom based on the most recent UVLG7 update for the t869, but despite a few views, no one seems to have an answer. We have been looking into how we can try to deodex it ourselves, and our jobs takes up most of our personal time and so we've no time to learn, but we seemed to have hit a wall, and I am hesitant to ask because I don't want to be judged, warned or banned for asking what others might consider a "noob" question or ridiculed for not having the same level of experience as everyone else around here.
So, in the meantime, I just quietly wait and hope that more options will present themselves.
Actually i can learn how to deodex my tab...bcoz i done deodex my previous device...but, just deodex...i dont know how to tweaks, how to make a custom rom, how to make a custom kernel, how to make a themes(but i know how to change Jpeg file on system.ui and framework-res)...ohh god...i hope we will get dev on our section...

That's just the minimum that are required by them to be released I think, it's not everything. ATM our CM10 relies on some binary blobs for things such as the kernel from the S3 simply because there's no source available to build yourself and there's not enough documentation to write one yourself either.

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.

Best ROM threads are frowned upon since the answer is subject to the users opinion and varies according to each person's habits and needs. They're all great in their own right, and worthy of your consideration. It won't hurt to try them all and form your own opinion. You'll most likely learn a lot in the process, and that's always a good thing.:thumbup:
Brought to you by time and relative dimensions in space.
Yeah. As said above, you should try and find it yourself. Bugs are usually mentioned in the OP itself. So it'll be easy to know which are the bugs.
IMO, cm10.1 with kexec. That's what I'm running on since more than a month now. No major bugs. Some have black screen issue. But I'm lucky to not have that

2. Jelly "Beans"
3. Axis
4. stock Verizon 4.1.2
5. other 4.1.2 based
I'm primarily interested in rock solid stability, and some of the Touchwiz experience. She might be getting the Note 3 in the future so I want her to get used to using some of Samsung apps. I have a second S3 for me and I'm testing 4.4 roms, currently installed CyanFox. So please keep discussion relevant to 4.1.2 roms and experience. I know 4.3 is out for Verizon, but I'll wait for Devs to build it into ROMs.

Lol! Can't go wrong with those.
Light and clean (more optimized, less theming):
Tkrom, bonestock, cleanrom, obsessed
More heavily modified (extra mods and themes,):
Hyperdrive, goodness, axis, jellybeans, moar, wicked sensations, the people's rom
I'm maybe leaving a few out, but look them over and see what you want. If you want something simple and easy you can't go wrong with the top 4.
Some phones handle roms better than others, so if one isn't working out well then don't be afraid to try another.
I also want to point out that you have to make sure your wife's phone isn't on the 4.3 base (vrucml1). If it is, do not flash any custom roms, that bootloader is completely locked down.

I've tried every single 4.1.2 TW rom out there, and my phone seems to run the best (least "Touchwiz" lag) on Hyperdrive with faux kernel. Completely stable, too. I also like the multitude of changes you can apply. However, you really can't go wrong with any of them. They all are great!
Like the above comment mentioned, make sure the OTA wasn't taken, although you probably know this.
They are all great, try them all.
