Holy ****, Cyanogenmod sucks on this phone. It's so unstable I can't think of recommending this to anyone. Is there a stable rom without bloat?

Dunno if your specifically looking for a 4.2 ROM or not, but Vitreous 1.93 is Android 4.1.2 and is very stable and easily the best available ROM right now for the Razr HD XT926. No bloatware.

not sure why you say CM sucks. Ive been running 10.1 for a couple weeks and i think its amazingly good. So much better than stock it feels like a brand new phone now.

I don't agree with you at all regarding cm or cm based roms, but there are a ton of stocked based roms on droidrzr. I have been using nexesque for awhile and it's a lot better than vitreous imo.

Okay so ICS ROMS have really taken off lately with the HTC Desire HD. I'm wanting to know what ROM you are using and which you think is the best and WHY? I want to know about GPS stability, how good your signal is etc.
I'll start it off by saying I'm using [ROM]22-01-2012|LC ICS 4.0.3 - 1.0.beta4 | AOSP + CM + COMMUNITY << This rom which can be found here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1450962&highlight=ics+lordmod
Everything seems to work in beta 4 but there has been a 4.5 release which has brought a few problems. Everything seems to be fast and smooth without any major problems (apart from bluetooth). Even the camera works with a 3rd party app but unfortunately no videos yet!
Let me know what you're using or planning on using!

a quick google search with xda on the end should do it

Hello, so far I stuck with stock roms... first ICS now leaked JB... I really would like a plain vanilla jb rom still retaining the great features of the SGS3... can anybody point me in the right direction?

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.

Omega ROM
Give Omega ROM a try, there is an optional to remove all SGS3 default bloatware that comes with it when you flash the ROM.
I am using it because this ROM is having all other SGS3 features like the motion control, stock camera, etc.:good:

I am running the latest version of ICS. I tried the CM10 rom but found that it was unstable and had a lot of things missing or not working compared to ICS. Anyway, with all the JB Roms popping up in the past few weeks,are there any out there that are better or more stable? I have been waiting for AT&T to release JB for HOC but as usual they are taking forever. Any advice is greatly appreciated!

Viper3.1 and it doesn't get much better than that. It's my opinion though. I would also suggest CM10.1. I loved it but I personally got an odd glitch where my screen would go black but the phone was still on, as were the capacitive buttons.
Anyone here is going to give you opinions. It's truly up to you to pick. The 2 I listed are great ROMS, stable and have awesome developers who stay on top of things.

I don't expect the AT&T version of JB to be substantially different (probably just more bloat and annoying AT&T branding all over the ROM, really) than any of the stock rooted Sense JB ROMs in Development, or custom ROMs based on those build. So flash one of those and be done with it.
In my opinion you're not going to find anything coming from AT&T as far as JB that's going to be better than the ROMS in development. If anything they are far better. Download a bunch, try them out and stick with the one you like best.
King Kang is super stable for me. Everything works.
King Kang has been the most stable I've tried. Pretty much every rom I've seen on here is livable though. I'm on CM10.1 now and I haven't had any real problems.

my wife and i switched from verizon to tmobile a few months ago. she knew i was flash happy and after number comments about rooting her phone , i did so one night after work.. so right now she is on a stock rom, i'd like to get her onto something non-stock, but i need it to be stable & jb based, functional camera... i'm running a 4.1.2 jb on my s2 and just want them to be somewhat similar in the event she has a problem im not clueless to it..

This. CM10 is about as stable as you are gonna get atm. Funny thing is most ROMs atm are CM based so tbh you should be fine with any of them.
If you want to avoid dealing with minor problems. I would say cm10 is your best bet for your wife.

I'm just wondering if there is another phone build that is compatible with the XT897 (i.e. there aren't very many available ROMS for this phone so could I try to install a ROM for lets say the RAZR build on the Photon?
What ROM were you looking for?
If it's built from source, rebuilding it for the Q would be a better idea, and really not that difficult.
I think we've got plenty of ROMs. CM10.2,Liquid Smooth,PacMan and Carbon. I'm still waiting for Liquid Smooth 3x.

There is a family of MSM8960 phones (Photon Q, Razr M, Razr HD, Atrix HD). If a ROM port exists for one of them, it will be easy to port, but has to be slightly reconfigured. In short, you cannot flash other phones ROM directly.

Right now I'm running cm10.2(nightly) on 4.3 os and I love it! I just like taking different ROM's and playing with them. The phone that i had before this one was the Nexus S 4g which was probably one of the most amazing phones I've ever had and I miss it dearly(got water-damaged) because of the fact it was compatible with almost any ROM I found. Even had GS3 stuff running on it at one point. SlimRom was my favorite but I have been wanting to try out paranoidAndroid and the like but wasn't sure if it was compatible with the photon Q. I do like Carbon as well.

So would you just change up stuff in the build.prop to make it work?

Hey don't get me wrong....Carbon is an awesome rom and Liquid Smooth has a lot of potential. I haven't tried PacMan yet though.

There's a few tweaks the Q needs. Again, if you have a ROM you want that there is source available for - it can probably be rebuilt for the Q from source.

Overclock is a kernel thing. You can do that on any ROM.
I just Googled Photosphere (had no idea what it was ) and it says a 4.2 feature? Most of the 4.2 ROM's should have it, I would think the 4.3 ones would as well, although they are maturing obviously.
