I want my phone to be faster and faster, Updates in my phone and make it smoother, and wait can i ask, do i need to jailbreak/ rooted my phone?
Can i have the link for the updates and tweaks?

Do what i do to all my friends gs3.
First root your phone. Then install any Jelly bean rom. I suggest omega 29.
You can find the how to on the posts here in the forum. Use the search.
For a fast gs3, most impotant thing. Change your launcher. Touchwiz is a memory eater i install nova for everyone.
Then disamble s voice. And be happy with lightning fast gs3
All my friends love what i do with theyre phones.

You don't have to uninstall TouchWiz launcher and infact you'll still keep TW features like swipe left or right shortcuts in your contacts/call log, etc. But all you need to do is install a new launcher from the Play Store and you will have the option to use as default if you want.
Nova is nice ..Holo is almost identicle but a little newer. Holo HD for Jelly Bean
If you want to improve your smartphone.. you have a lot of ways to do that. Google can help give you ideas but rooting in general opens the door to a lot of possibilities. Best bet is to take some time.. a lot if time and read about rooting, and apps that can extend the functionality of your device !
Oh and please post in the correct section. Questions belong in Q&A.

MIUI ROM?

I'll be getting a GSII soon... how does everyone like it so far?
I have the Vibrant atm.
Does anyone know if there will be a MIUI ROM coming to the GSII?
thanks!
There's a MIUI experimental build out on the Original Development Forum. It's not perfect yet but most things are working
I must say I'm liking it, but I dont like how I cant sort my icons out and I have A LOT of them and its too much trouble to folder-ize them
i´ve been using it for some time now ( 4 weeks +- ) and i MUST say that it is the best rom ( in my opnion ) EVER !
LOVING IT !
Hey boys where are the Google maps and YouTube in the MIUI rom? Thanks

They were removed because some think they are bloatware. Just download them from the market.

Umm... get a different launcher.
ADW? LauncherPro?
anyway... thanks fellas!
Do you guys know what's NOT working?
I absolutely agree with my fellow user and Senior Member GXFX here! This is the BEST ROM ever I have tried in my SGS II. I tried almost every single ROM out here in XDA, except CyanogenMod. MIUI is fantastic in terms of butter smooth experience, the mind blowing customization option and super fantastic battery experience.
The one thing that I did not feel comfortable with MIUI is its launcher, so I just installed ADW launcher, everything is just cool and comfortable. Thanks team MIUI.
I heard there are issues with bluetooth. It is important to me as I connect to my car stereo using bluetooth and can't do without.
Has anyone had any problems?

Doing that would defeat the purpose of using MIUI. And you dont get the wonderful animations on the MIUI launcher
There are alot of FC's left and right and Bluetooth isnt working, but its mostly good for day to day use

[Q] Does the Omega 4.0 Custom ROM 'Keep in Memory' ?

Does anyone know if the Custom ROM 'Omega v4.0' for the Galaxy S3 has the option (like Apex Launcher) to KEEP IN MEMORY..?
The ONE and ONLY reason i want to change ROMs is because my homescreen widgets and icons are CONSTANTLY re-drawing whenever i exit an app, and its WINDING ME UP!
Does the same for any other launcher!!
Apex launcher (whilst kept in memory) seems to be better, but i would prefer the stock launcher so was thinking of changing to the Omega ROM.
So yeah, back to my question, can the Omega v4.0 ROM be 'KEPT IN MEMORY'..?
Why not you ask the developer himself?

hehe, subjective for all users , for me it is definitely CALENDAR WIDGET that is placed in size of 4x2 to my homescreen as plenty of appointments every day 3-4 months in advance

Thank you !
And sorry, i thought i was first because it was posted on gsmarena today
First, I wish a better multitasking. The iOS multitasking is better solved. I hope Google will develop a simply and fast way to switch between the running apps.

Hi,
iOS... What is it ?
Personnaly I know nothing other than the Android multitasking... , when I googled "iOS multitasking" there is nothing relevant... :victory: :silly::fingers-crossed:
In any case your post had nothing related to do with the OP (Note 2 multitasking windows about SIII port, not a general thread about multitasking on Android VS I*****)... If you want to talk about multitasking there are another threads

IOS doesn't multitask. Simple as that.
To switch between running apps keep the home button pressed to see the task manager.

Hi nodstuff
Ok, I go out...
You simply say what I thought, I was just a little ironic in the first part of my post.
OT: nodstuff, you still have your Galaxy Nexus? (no, no sorry for the OT since this topic is destined to die :silly:).

[Q] lockscreen background without touckwiz

Hey guys i just flashed the null_13 rom and i wanted to change the background in the locksceen but i dont have the option for it (neither on homescreen nor in settings)is it only possible with touchwiz or am i missing something?
I think you`ll get better answer faster if you ask in thread where you got the ROM in question. Developer will likely see it there first.
