Number 1 for me is stability. I am looking for a Rom that fully works or for the most part everything is working. Full camera functionality/flash, Sending and receiving SMS & MMS, GPS (I use navigation often), making and receiving calls, all the basic stuff that work on stock. Stability is my main objective. Second would be battery life & fluidity. Everything else like customization options is a nice bonus
I expected the Jelly Bean OTA to be better than it was. I did a factory reset when I got the update to make sure my phone started fresh. Even formatted internal and external SD card. I just expected a better experience. They took away some things I loved and added some things I don't like. But the main thing that bothers me is the occasional stutter/lag. And I notice battery life is worst on the JB OTA. I thought JB was suppose to be refined, it's not totally buttery smooth like they promote it to be. At least not on the stock Verizon variant of the GS3.
I am looking at "The Executioner" or the CleanRom/CleanRom Lite Edition. Any opinions or thoughts by people who have ran both would be appreciated!! I realize roms, as most things in life are a personal preference but I'd still like to get some opinions.
Another silly thread. We already have a few of these in the same section. Post there.

This post doesn't really give me an opinion on The Executioner Rom vs. CleanRom/CleanRom Lite Edition? I tried doing a search but nothing came up on the comparison of the two. Can you send me a link to that particular thread? I'd appreciate it bro. I'm only asking the people who have tried those two roms or either CleanRom or Executioner.
Im loving the executioner rom!! I was using synergy but im loving this one! Awesome and super stable... Also im using imoseyon kernal and am undervolting it. Great battery life and speed is awesome

Thanks for the feed back!! Is there any common bugs people been experiencing with it? All the basic functions are working well? Again I appreciate the reply, I'm brand new to the S3 section of the site. This makes me excited to see what the rom is about. I take it the rom has no stutters or occasional lag like the stock touchwiz.

I use the CM10 Nightlies. I update about once a week or so. And I have had very minimal issues. When I did run into any, I just updated the next day and the issue was fixed. And you can report bugs to the developers to help expedite the fixes as they come up. Not to mention no more touchwiz, *Gag*

I heard CM roms were great for customization but may not be most stable? I was thinking of trying it anyways. I like the AOSP or pure Google look and feel. I gotta think about it I don't know if I'll have the time to flash an update every day for a bug fix lol. Thank you for the input

I forgot to ask, thing that bothers me most about the recent official JB OTA, I am required to have my GPS turned on to refresh my weather Widgets. Being connected to the net is not enough anymore m after the update, now I need GPS on for some reason? Is this the case for the Executioner Rom or no?

For example there's a great guide in the android development forum that compares many different roms.

Just got my mom this phone and i got the rooting bug, lol.
She's basically just using it for web browsing, text messaging, and taking pics.
What's the best rom out there for efficiency? I want to take off all the sprint bloat & get some better battery life.
Would also like a rom i can add themes to.
You may consider the combo in my signature.
Works well on me.
Very stable with no reboots.
It has the 4G version as well unless I'm mistaken.
My usage is similar to your mom, though.
No gaming at all.
As for theming, I don't know if this ROM can be themed or not as I just like the way it is.

Good luck

Probably want to keep it stock and simple, if you are going to root and theme it it'll make it more frustrating. In fact, setting up for other people, I'll enable root for certain apps and then set it automatically deny.
I have the perfect combination for you:

CM9 Nightly 20120310 is the best until now from ICS roms
Can we update this?
After so long, i was finally able to root. Well, not able..but i got lazy and didn't bother with it.
This one is super basic and I think the best for the Nexus S. Fast, stable, and great battery life, 1%/h during night with wifi on

I ran across this and it say's ICS and "most things are working". Is this real or is the site wrong on it being ICS?
This is very interesting, hopefully someone can shed some light on this. That would be awesome if it was a working ICS build, but for some reason part of me thinks this is just an ICS-Like ROM. I'm hoping though!
Eternity is awesome. Not ICS though. Sense 3.5. Very Smooth And stable with right settings. full day battery also.

Its a great rom. Very polished. They have nightly builds which r248 is the latest and it is the most stable. They also have test builds which were updated to the .19 base, however I personally had a few issues with those. Development should be continuing on the rom soon.
About the link in the op...

What are the right settings to get Eternity smooth? After three hours playing with it I managed to download some of my apps (titanium isn't working on the rom for some reason) and... Well, it is by far the laggiest/ slowest ROM I've dealt with. Do I need to oc my kernel higher?
As it is, this ROM is near unusable.

What version are you running? If you're on r248 flash imos 5.2 kernel. Run the speed tweak script in terminal and set it up in normal mode (that's what I do). It's oc is 1.4ghz and undervolted to save battery. Change the governor to smartassv2 and change the scheduler to sio. Also, DONT RESTORE SYSYTEM APPS WITH TITANIUM BACKUP. I don't know if you did but that will screw things up. Make sure before you flash to super wipe and use 4ext recovery for flashing. Eternity isn't a laggy rom for me but you may consider using a different launcher instead of rosie.

Hey guys,
Just letting you know I have leaked 4.1.2 for our devices over in my thread. Link Here
Enjoy. :good:
EDIT: Just a small note, this does not yet include the Premium Pack (multi-window, etc...) this is just Verizon's first test build of 4.1.2. Mostly bug fixes and minor features.
hmm..any nice updates on 4.1.2 over 4.1.1?
Yes the 4.2 gapps and should have multi window stock.
Any difference in the radio?

Yeah, it seems like people are really hyped about 4.1.2. It's basically any custom TW ROM already released, since the 4.1.1 ROMs have 4.1.2 features in them. Now, if it were 4.2, that'd be something to get hyped about!

Nah they're correct to be excited. Samsung explicitly stated their new "premium suite" update with Note 2 features (like multi-window) would become available in 4.1.2. However it seems none of these features are available in the current leak. Perhaps the next one!

Its only been a day BUT I have noticed a huge difference in performance since running it. I havent added anything to the Rom that I havent ran before. I used to have a delay on my menu button when using Apex as my default, its gone, the version of Apex is the same. My camera loads much faster than it used to, I would have a 2-3 second black screen delay when starting the cam. Now its almost instant every time. I have a lot more free Ram than old stock version, I debloated the heck out this Rom and am steady between 480-600mb used with over 1gb free! My last Rom ran between 700mb-1gb used. The Group play app works well actually and its really easy to use. Quad scores are up. Battery seems better, im on 18hrs with 1hr 45min screen on, 59% left.
Again, these are my findings after 24+ hrs, yours will vary. I run LK.
anyone know how many leaks we got before blk3 hit?
I'm wondering just in case GB starts to lose support from app developers. I'd like to know if ics is 100% stable at this point, and all features work. I'm all about stability and having everything work the way it was intended.
Bling is cool, as long as it doesn't introduce glitches and hitches.

Well, GB is pretty dead too, according to some here. But at least it's 100% stable. (at least the revenant rom is) But after perusing the JB threads, it would seem that there are still issues to be ironed out. It may be "good enough" for some, but good enough is not good enough for me.
I guess it looks like I'll be staying with GB for as long as possible. The only reason I upgraded to GB was because some apps no longer work on Froyo.

I still use GB. I would not describe myself as a heavy user though. I use the phone mostly for the call, text and camera function.
I like my gmail, calendar and contacts sync'ed.
I don't have all the fb, twitter etc
When I tested out JB, I found a few things I liked:
1. gtalk updated better.
2. gmail had other options. Scrollable widget. Calendar had scrollable widget also. Calendar has more detailed display
3. Chrome worked. Native Browser was better.
4. Google body (now defunct-ed) worked..it needed a 3.0+ platform.
5. I don't use it but others like the theme engine.
6. The weather update on the lock screen was a nice touch.
7. The quick launch from the lock screen was neat...although I don't usually use the lock screen.
8. Back up and restore apps is more comprehensive.
9. Google Now and Google Keep is neat to try.
There were others but I forget...
For my phone, I still like the simpler GB interface and the battery life (less processes running means less battery usage)
fwiw, Entropy said his cm9 was stable..and "dead" too. Supposedly he had a more updated one but never release. Supposedly, aremo/he may have a different cm10?..I'm not sure though...
My final thoughts...to each his own...find something that you like...

Thanks for the info. I don't see anything on that list that is a must have though. Hopefully, GB will be supported by app devs until next spring when my contract is up. Carry on.
yeah..nothing must have..just interesting to test.
jb may be a step up in the most updated device designed to run it with support from chip set manufacturer. (ex: gn2, sgs3, sgs4)

Stuttering with 720p recording...that's pretty major to a lot of people, although I myself can live with out it...it was a pretty major downside of jb/ics...on the occasion I wanted to get a video I really couldn't :/, but IMHO that one con doesn't weigh out the pros
But you can't say gb doesn't really have any features when they do have a fully working camera...just saying

But most people realize they're not going to be shooting hollywood movies with the thing. I'm not complaining though, it's good enough for what I need.
I thought ICS was the only version for the infuse with working full encryption?
I have 10GB of organized GB Roms/themes, ICS Roms/themes(lost files ), Tweaks for GB/ICS, all old recovery stuff, and 3 open source kernels Samsung had released. I have talked to 3-4 forum moderators for approval and I will be creating around 150 links for the infuse community for lost/broken links and there may/may not be broken but will all be on dev-host 4 u guys. I am hopping this will help u guys b4 I leave. I am hopping to make this post within the next week or 2 in the general section. Cheers :thumbup:
I am also going to be posting all the links to EVERY official post
Note* this is all I have left, I had a partition failure and I lost all I had but these files due to being on DropBox, I am still hopping to retrieve my missing files and Ken has been helping me all the way!=)

I saw my friends note 2 which had the multi window function basically you can have two windows up at the same time. I thought this was very useful and even better than what we have using halo. I was wondering if there was a ROM they had this type of functionality. what he was using was a touch wiz ROM.
thank you

Clearly you're brand new to the s3. It has multi window built in in the latest update.

That's funny. You buy a phone and don't even know how to use it. Did you immediately root and flash a custom Rom. Just long press the back button.

Yeah no idea how to use it, cant even make a call on it. Its crazy.
Luckily thanks to searching the web I found a place with a Q and A section. I think you are supposed to be able to ask a question in that section and get some help. Then usually they have some helpful people who try to answer the questions.
Its probably not your fault, mom woke you up early and you were a little cranky. So being an @sshole was the easy thing to do. I dont blame you but I would definitely have some words with your parents.
PS long pressing the back button closes apps. Just letting you know

Long pressing the back button with multi Windows turned on a touch wiz rom will enable or disable it. You can call me anything you want but I will not be pulled into insults. You did have it right I was a little cranky and you can talk to my wife about that. I apologize for my comment insulting you. As soon as you said halo I knew you was using something other than touchwiz. I should have simply said with touchwiz and clarified. I was not being helpful like this community deserves. CM based and tw roms are different and should have asked what you was running. Sorry again and I hope you the best with any future questions.

Hey its cool.
Yeah I probably should have added I have been on PA ASOP for 10 months. I like it, but I feel that multi windows would be very useful. I might have to try one of the touch wiz roms to see if this is true.
Thanks again
Yep pretty much all the tw ROMs now have multi window

If you jump to tw Rom I recommend bonestock v3.3. Give you a lot of options for customizing but you will be missing out on a lot of PA features you have probably got used to. I have used PA on multiple devices but I never could stay with it as my long-term rom

My favorite "feature" of PA is the look in settings with the tablet layout. Its shallow but I love the way it looks and its easy to adjust settings.
I never really used pie that much, it was just difficult for me.
I did like Halo because I am always using multi windows. GPS, Web browsing, gmail, or even FB and twitter. I always seem to have 2 things going on. Halo made it easier.
Bonestock hmm well that will be the first one I try. I love getting recommendations, because it can be a daunting task to figure out which rom to flash. Especially with 50+ tw roms.
multi window is cool, but its much more useful on a bigger screen.
good luck finding what you need

Like on a tablet? I just find it more useful on a 7 inch screen of a tablet then on a 5 inch screen of a smartphone.
yeah or the note.
itsc ool. i fiddled around with it for a while but found myself not using it after a couple of days. its worth trying if you think youll benefit from it. i just didnt find it as useful as i expected
