Which Rom is True ICS?

Hey guys just wondering what Rom is the best for the skyrocket that has the most ICS features and is the most stable. Ive seen a lot of roms have problems.

Try just about any rom that does not have gingerbread in the title. If you want something with an aosp feel, i suggest NexusMod or getting into cm9 but that's not a daily driver yet if your new.
Skyics is nice too. Its based off latest ics leak.
Just flash away.

i would say cm9 alpha 3 is pretty stable and ive been using it as a dd for like 2-3 weeks since alpha 2a and i havent had any problems pretty much all the issues were resolved in a3

CM9 or AOKP are the closest thing to true ICS. CM9 is easily accessible daily driver. I've been using it for awhile and have no problems. AOKP has a few more bugs. If you want true ICS, stay away from any Samsung roms since they pretty much ruin ICS with Touchwiz and all the visual changes they did. CM9 has more features than any Samsung rom.

I second the cm9 as a daily driver. Blown away by this ROM. It's like they read my mind about all the features I felt were lacking on my phone and ta-da!

I've been using seanzscreams ROM's for months and his latest version is the best operating system on a phone I've ever used. It's fast, smooth and the battery life is truly amazing. And he posts updates oftentimes every day. You can find that thread here:

I can see this turning into a Ford vs. Chevy debate. Just load up several and put them through your paces. Do Nandroids and you can easily switch back.
That said, add another vote for SkyICS 4.2E

Did you try the jelly bean rom. just released on the web just for the skyrocket. Google it youll like it

Links to all Roms can be found in the Infuse Super Everything Thread.
What is considered "good" varies depending on the person.
Though the best 'stability' would probably come in a Gingerbread rom, since they don't have any features missing.
However, if you don't mind a few (and I consider trivial), issues such as choppy HD video recording, I would definitely recommend a JellyBean rom such as CM10 or, my favorite, Paranoid Android.
They both are stable, smooth, and fast running Roms, and tend to have much better battery life!

Thanks a lot will check em out. One thing how is slim bean jb doing you know?

Slim Bean is working great and quite fast, and its only the first build. A new update should be up later.

I'd like to also add that Slim bean has been running the fastest and smoothest for me out of all of the 4.1.1 roms. The only downside with slimbean is choppy 720p recording. but Ive gotten past that. I rarely record video, and at 720p at that. I recently tried the new REMICS-JB based on Slim bean and that is fantastic if you like the new touchwiz. OC'd at 1600 and it runs like an S3 :laugh:

Thanks a lot! I flashed slim beam and it was legit but I will try the other one!

Jesus.. another of these threads?!?!
Dude, not being a **** or anything.. but do some legwork and read about different ones.. asking for people to post links for you is incredibly lazy... if you can't be bothered to do your own research, how do you expect people to do it for you?
Its powered by Jellybeaned AOKP!

I went from Froyo to Jellybean, first time ever using any ROMs and I love it!
Unfortunately, the things I use most, the Bluetooth and Camera/Video recorder do not function properly in Jellybean.
So I am probably going to go back to stock gingerbread with some of the enhancements/tweaks.
Just wanted to share.

I did do research ok so don't be quick to judge sorry I wanted other people's input in it.

Everyone has gave input on the specific threads for specific ROMs, threads like these pop up every other day..
But whatever you say...
Its powered by Jellybeaned AOKP!

Which ROM you like and which ROM performs better.

I have gone almost through every ROM from ICS to jb on my rocket.
I am no expert in testing but I can say I love the UI on the jb paranoid as well the hibrid touch wizz ROMs.
The sky ICS and the hybrid wizz gave me the best battery life.
Feature wise there are some very appealing the xperiance, job paranoid, the cm9 and cm 10.
The smoothest ROMs we have Majick wzz, vincon jb super lite.
Remember this is only my opinion that I want to share with the forum.
Feel free to submit yours that will help a lot newbob in their search for ROMs.

Looking for a great stable jellybean ROM with good battery life?

Hi to all!
I'm currently run CodenameAndroid 3.6.6 stock kernel w/VRLHE modem. I currently have tried every ROM know to the vzw Galaxy S III. Not a big fan of touch wiz but still tried them as well just because they are pretty decent on battery. Anyways I'm currently running on 7 hours 7 min and still have 51% battery with 2 hours of screen time about 20 minutes on browser time. 4g LTE on the whole time, sync on maybe 5-10 min.Everything else off. However I do have the s3 underclocked to 1.026 ghz just because I hardly play games, and jellybean runs fantastic underclocked. No lag and you wouldnt ever tell it was underclocked. I will however bring clock back up to stock and test.

Dude, he wants our rom suggestions not a link to all roms, don't be a tool....
In my opinion codename gave me the worst battery life but the latest cm10 nightlies are surprisingly stable and battery efficient. If you haven't been on cm10 in a while I'd check that out but if I were you I wouldn't be looking to a new rom and risk losing that awesome battery life. For me, good battery life's a hard thing to find.

If anyone is being a tool it's you. The op should take time to look through rom threads himself and see if it's worth trying out. Just because you have a great experience on a certain rom doesn't mean he will.

Based on your current stats that you posted you could get at least 4 hours of screen on time with your current build and use, which is a pretty high amount as is. Not sure how much better battery life your trying to get out of it.

Yes. You are being the tool here sir. Do you realize how sick of these style threads most everyone here is? They get locked all the time by mods even. People need to learn how to take some frigging initiative and read threads on their own instead of asking everyone else to spoon feed them the answer they are looking for.

You sir are correct. These types of threads nearly always turn into a "whip it out, mine is better than yours" thread.
@OP, best thing to do is go into dev section and read the OPs of the ROMs you'd think you'd like and then read about the last 10 pages in each to get a feel. If you like, then start reading.

[Q] Fastest ROM - Suggestions for a minimalist!

Howdy XDA peoples, I'm not too handy with the search bar and I haven't come across a thread for this yet so...
​>What is the fastest ROM for the Verizon Galaxy SIII? I'm going for minimal amounts of crap, as clean as they come, and as fast as they come.
​>Also, Stock or AOSP, which is faster? I imagine AOSP.
​>I'm not looking for kernel compatibility, which ROM is the fastest, just the ROM alone.
:good:THANKS IN ADVANCE!:good:

I personally find the fastest to be LiquidSmooth.
But no question you can narrow your search down to AOSP ROMs.

What about Pure AOSP? Would that be faster or does liquid smooth actually have performance modifications and tweaks?

It might not be minimal but beans 13 with tk kernel is the best set up I've used. In my opinion I prefer tw over aosp. No lag at all and great battery life

I'm an AOSP guy personally, but I do greatly appreciate your input!

theres an entire original development section here. do some research and find what works best for you and what you need out of a rom.
being fast isnt a valid criteria.
nobody can answer this question except for you. put in a little effort, do some learning/reading, itll serve you well.

Here you go. All your questions answered:

Carbon ROM 3/15 nightly build with KT kernel is FAST no crap bloat apps. I am running ktoonservative/bfg on Carbon ROM 3-15 build. I couldn't believe it last 2 days 0h 38m at 16% left battery and got 3 hrs 24 mins screen. Thanks to [Team Kernelizers][How To][TK Mod 1.0.1] Updated 03-21-13 KT747 Kernel Tweaks

I'm really just looking to see what others experiences have been, I've had my fair share of ROMs on this thing. Not as many stock, as I always felt they were slower, but still, plenty.
I also have done PLENTY of reading, hence the reason why I have never had to make a post before, I find my questions answers in my reading.
So I take offense to your comment ddurand. I'd like personal preference and input, not criticism on my research techniques.

everyones phone works differently. you just need to try things and see what you like and what fits you best.
theres threads all over like this with comparisons. heres another good one besides the one posted above (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2030478)
asking for peoples personal opinion will net you 10+ different roms to try.
dont take it too seriously, im just trying to help.
its just how it works. you need to flash ROMs to see what works best on your phone.

I think nottas paranoid android is a great candidate. Other than the pie interface and hybrid ui stuff, it's basically AOSP. It's also compiled with linaro. I think the minimal features really help keep it smooth and fast.

Couldn't have put that any better, PA is def the fastest ROM I have ever had on my phone. Minimal AOSP compiled with linaro, plus hybrid UI and PIE controls. Can't beat that.
