Should I trust CM9 over all other rooms?

I was wondering this because I just installed the alpha 20 ics CM9 rom. I'm tired of flashing lol I want a nice stable no lag one.

YOU would know best whats stable enough and lag free enough for YOU. im just quite the opposite. 3 weeks or so ago, i flashed the stock/rooted version of 4.0.3 ics. it was stable, fast, everything worked. i thought i was happy with it and stopped my daily flashing. last night i went back to crackflashing, cm9 kangs. the stock rom was apparently too stable for me. and it wasnt just because of withdrawal from crackflashing. i went back to daily crackflashing because it has become a lifestyle

Lmfao hey like your reply I'd the story of my life. Btw how good is the kang one. I personally think that asop is the best but I need better

the kangs/cm9 are getting better and better every day, almost. i left cm9 because the launcher was starting to bug me, it reloaded way too often. cm9 might have had a memory issue then. but, 2 days and 2 kangs later, not a single issue here. everything works just as it should. and its extremely quick and responsive, even with the trinity teuv undervolted/underclocked(880mhz) kernel that im using(but its gpu is overclocked).

So you would say that the kangs is better? If so, I'm gonna keep this cm9 and then flash in maybe two days.

its not that they are better, its that they are compiled on a daily basis. so they are the latest, and include the latest fixes right away.

Well yeah that makes more sense. Looks like I'll be flashing a lot with this cm9. Thank God for titanium backup pro. Thanks for the responses .

I wouldn't say you should COMPLETELY trust the CM9 ROM over all. If I were you I'd run some more tests on which you like the most at the moment and stick to it, until CM9 is finally complete. I'm using an AOSP+ Neapolitan flavor build, it is incredibly smooth I recommend that. I know as soon as CM9 is finished I'm hopping onto that ROM in a heart beat though

Hey thanks. Do you have a link for that build you mentioned

I spent the enitre day today flashing and reflashing...
guess what i finally ended up going back to stock ICS and matrix kernel..

Try other ROMs out. See what fits you.

Aosp+ rom and matr1x v14.0 kernel is the perfect combination for me.
Fast, stable and cm9 style power menu and nstools is built in to the settings menu.

Yeah asop is pretty damn nice. But the launcher goes blank for mr a lot.

What is the best Rom for Verizon GS3? in terms of speed and performance

I wonder what's the fastest stable rom for the verizon Galaxy S3, in terms of Speed and performance, Personally I think Senergy is the one, any other Ideas... thanks

I think it comes down more to how bloated/bloatfree the rom is and the kernel imo
I'm pretty happy with my JB AOKP rom, though and feel JB is quicker than ICS

Ya all the mainstream cm10 roms are overwhelming since there are 4+ of them and I have no idea what separates them.

CM10 nightlies are decently stable, very fast, ParanoidAndroid nightlies are pretty stable and fast. Synergy is good, but for me there was a delay in the screen unlocking and the in call volume setting won't stick. I've been using CleanRom 2 now, all is good

Clean ROM 2.0 is very fast an most of all, stable.

Synergy definitely. Currently testing out the new ParanoidAndroid for now though.

Personally I use almost all roms, and I was Senergy fan, but some how Clean Rom is the fastest, smoothest and most stable GS3 Rom I've ever seen, it's smooth like a babe, lol

I really got to try clean rom. I'm just too addicted to the dark horse rises theme and synergy's utter greatness. Personally I think right now (today) the jb rom's are just not there yet, but that's just me. Tomorrow is a different story.....

I much prefer CM10 to Synergy or Clean Rom. Tried them both and for some reason I just love the look and responsiveness of CM10 more. Granted there are data hiccups here and there but the latest nightly has fixed that issue. Try experimenting with different kernels and ROMs and im sure you will find a combination that works best for you.

TW has some good features I'd hate to give up - e.g. the video player, camera, music player are all fantastic apps, better than anything in AOSP.

The video player is outstanding although there you can run multiple programs in AOSP to replace it
I agree the camera is irreplaceable
I only use Play Music so I cannot comment too much on the TW music player
But ParanoidAndroid (scarce bugs aside) really is so unique I can't go back to TW at this current time

If you want stability go with 4.0

To be honest I've tried every Rom. And even stock this phone is buttery smooth. I have had almost every high end android phone Verizon has sold. The s3 is the only phone out of a about my 8 other phones I've had in the last few years that I have never seen lag or stutter. It is perfect and always smooth. Way better then the GNEX or rezound I had. I've had the s3 since launch in July and I have not seen it lag yet. This phone has truly impressed me and I'm very picky.

PACman All In One or CM10:HYBRID Paranoid Android??

Hi I am kind of new to the ROMs so I was wondering if anyone could tell me which ROM is more stable, fast, and has no lag.
The PACman All In One or CM10:HYBRID Paranoid Android?
Please leave replies, thank you!

That are both based off of CM10, so they should both be pretty stable, instability usually comes from over clocking and or under volting, in my experience anyway. I am running PACman myself.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2

They are both equally stable in my opinion. PACman no longer have the paprefs.apk built in, so you will have to push it yourself if it's something you want to utilize. I am currently running the latest version of PACman by gs2usr, but I switch between the two from time to time.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app

I too am running gs2user's pac build. I've never ran a rom like this before or knew about paperf but not that I've learned how to use it, but it's a sick rom. I got pac flashed on my girls phone as well. In general I've noticed a bump in performance and I believe that the battery life is on par with both the collective release and blinkys revenge release.

Need a new ROM?

Ive been rocking CM for sometime now with this phone and all previous ones, and I do like it its been my dd, but im looking for something different. Now I know this is/can be opinionated and subjective to users, but I would like to get into a good discussion about my next ROM for my S3.
So lets see what you bring to the table.

JellyBeans, CleanROM and HELLSROM are great, stable and fully supported. Check them out. I go between them and am currently on 4.2.1 HELLSROM

Depends on if you want a TouchWiz ROM or an AOSP ROM

Well I'd like to stick with AOSP or AOKP
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda premium

If you want to try something completely different and stay with AOSP, i suggest trying MIUI.

I've been running CleanROM 5.6 with LeanKernel 1.6 for a couple of days now. I've never used a version of CleanROM that wasn't stable.

If you want a stable AOSP ROM that doesn't have much bugs you would have to go to late versions such as Milestone 1 release of AOKP, but if you want a TouchWiz ROM with a 4.2 AOSP feel HellsROM (recent development so will have a few bugs) would be perfect.

Ya, I tried touchwiz for a while for some reason battery life isn't as balanced as in AOSP ROM's atleast for me anyway, but performance wise they are pretty smooth.

I guess the problem is there are so many spread out across so many forums it's very difficult to get them in one spot.
I've been looking at what's been mentioned but still nothing has jumped out at me. I guess I need to choose one and go with it, unless I should wait for something to come out

I prefer TW roms myself. As stated before, CleanRom is one of the most stable roms I have ever ran but GalaxyMod 14.1 has so many great custom ports that it has turned my S3 into a mini Note 2

Ive been looking at Clean ROM for awhile, I might make the jump. As for GalaxyMod 14.1 I have not seen that one.. might give that one a look too

The newest version of cleanrom is my personal favorite. Its very fast, clean, lite, and super stable. I don't have a single issue with anything on this rom. Its updated every now and then but not to fix issues because there are none, but to make it even better by removing more crap from the system to make battery life even better. I've tried a bunch of roms and I get better battery life, faster and smoother performance, perfect stability, and overall happiness with this rom than anything else that I've tried. Along with the k3 modem and rpm its perfect. I got 1 day and 4.5 hours off a single charge before I got to 10% battery with medium use (using my phone as I normally would, without purposefully letting it standby to save battery). If I had to pay $50 to have this rom, I'd do it. Flash it and give it a couple days and you'll see why.

I gotta try PACman, i've read good things.. but i've been running mastamoon's unofficials for months now.. had a lot of problems with cm10.1 when it came out with bluetooth music streaming, so i tried out his build, he has a few reverts etc that work great.. basically just cm10.1 with a few modifications. I still have yet to try anything wild

slimbean. by far.
I dont think ill try anther AOSP rom for this phone, says the flashaholic

I have rootbox right now, I've read all the AOSP threads and noticed some common issues -
1. phone freeze requiring battery pull, esp during call - I've seen this
2. gps problems
3. 3.4 kernel is slow and unstable
e.g. carbon rom went from using 3.4 to 3.0, now I think its back to 3.4. I like pie controls and AOKP/SlimBean doesn't have them so I haven't tried those.

Not to be a troll, but someone will call me one..
Dont we have enough favorite roms and best Rom threads?

Liquid Smooth for me.
I had problems with Carbon, my home button would "accelerate" so later and later in the day the long press would become shorter and shorter until I restarted my phone. Yes it was a clean install, otherwise I'd be on Carbon.

Most Stable : RootBox
Close Second : SlimBean
