Hello guyz,
I convinced my brother to move from his iPhone to the galaxy S3.. So he bought a S3.. And now he loves it...he hates iPhone now... After using android he said that " I was living under a rock all these time " .....and he is so so in love with his S3.. He even told he he is going to buy the S4 next...
Now going on topic.. He wants to update his phone to latest version. Which I think is 4.1.1 officially..
My question is how is the performance or usability in jelly bean?
What are the pros and cons? (If any )
If u want to mention any firmware build numbers u are more than welcome..
I am not talking about custom, I want stock opinions...
Thankssss all...
Best regards,
N

My honest opinion..... Stick with ICS.
JB lags like crazy and I would wait till 4.2 is released

Well I trıed 5-6 official jb leaks. Scrolling between home screens is faster. New notification system is much better but yes unfortunately there are glitches and lags.
Then I decided to give custom rom a shot and installed Ultima. I am very happy with that. Lags and glitches happen time to time but much less than stock roms.
This question has been asked and answered multiple times .
Stick with ICS until you are capable of using the search function .

What did you expect? They have to design consistent software across their product line.

oh, was it meant to look anything like how it does on Nexus or is that a Nexus only deal, coz all icons are the same, dial pad etc.... ALL THE SAME
That is one of the reason I am still on GB ... and moved to MIUI GB now mate..
They dont want a change on their treditional touchwiz look.....but salute them for making the hacking very simple....lets find our own AOSP...
i'm on slim ics now.. it's pure google way.. but me too think ics gives nothing new.

anyone that expected samsung ics to be like stock ics is an idiot
ICS on gs2 is sooo disappointing. I'm on XWPL7 with Sayid kernel v3.1rc5. Looks almost the same and battery sucks and i get freezes and random restarts... wifi is flakey... I guess we'll be the guinea pigs for now
ICS for SGS2 sucks...
IQ? IQ has nothing to do with anything. IQ testing is and always has been a failure for testing ones intellect
Whiners go back to lovely GB and flash all the kernels you want to make the already fast phone fly and

Howdy,
For testing purposes I want to load a pre-ICS ROM on my GalaxyS3. I need the flash built in that got dropped with ICS.
Has anyone tried this? If so, what are recommended ROMs?
If no one has done this, what ROMs are closest to what the S3 runs and would stand the greatest chance of working?
Thanks,
Joe
Presume this is a test to see how fast you can brick your SGS3 .
Adobe Flash player works on ICS .

now this was a unique question. in the world of jb you are looking for gb
oh go on, do it, testing, testing

This is I think the 4th "can I put gingerbread on x" thread I have seen on xda, pretty sure its the second in the S3 forum and also there were two in the gnex forums if my memory serves me right.
As you can imagine they were met with complete and WARRANTED hostility.

to be equally fair, i'm in the same boat. i had a captivate for a while, loved the gb roms i flashed constantly to find my favourite. bought an s2 and absolutely love the phone. i hard bricked my previous s2, i dont think i had the right kernel, something i did was for a non canadian version of the s2. after i sold that one i bought another brand new s2. the s3 was around for a little while at this point but my girlfriend has a galaxy nexus and her sister an s3 and i just dont like the way ics and jb look, feel and operate. it felt like switching from windows to a mac after using windows for years. i would go to close a window and the 'x' was in the upper left and not right like windows.
its a personal opinion, i'm sure in many ways firmwares past gb are better in many quantifiable ways, but i just dont like em. not to mention the stupid physical home button like some loser iphone. i love the 4 backlit buttons that samsung uses on many devices like the blu ray player i have. it's just awesome.
anyway, long story short - is there any other demand worth warranting a dev to make a gb rom for phones past that version of android?
in closing, think of the amount of roms out there for the captivate which are based on froyo people still use. gb ics and even jb roms are available but many people still prefer the look and feel of froyo.

Hi im a GS1 owner, soon maybe getting the GS2 and i wonder if i should upgrade it with the stock 4.0.4 or stay on 2.3.6.
(im staying stock for a while then rooting changing roms etc)
From some i heard the batterytime was not as good as in GB. From some it was smoother in ICS.
If you have upgraded to ICS (Stock) not custom, did you regret it or is it better?
Stock ICS is uglier than stock GB. ICS has better battery life and of course, the new features of ICS.

Yeah, it's definitely worth it.
If you face any problems after upgrading, then search the thread first for similar issues before opening a new thread.
Good luck

You can try ofc and downgrade to Gb if Ics doesn`t suites your needs. My S2 is quite new, has only a month and it came up with Ics 4.0.3 installed.
The best way is to try for yourself and judge then what to do. The process of flashing is so simple as you surely know.
Cheers and welcome to S2 comunity.

Okay, here I'm. I'm new to xda & this is my 1st post. We all know that our s5830 has already tasted Jelly Bean via cyanogenmod/aokp/aosp with bugs in it Of course, those developments are great but not stable It's been a dream of every user to have Jelly Bean for daily use on their ace. Maclaw started it all up first but unfortunately he's off now So the thing is development of JB for our ace on stock base or something like that but stable, bug free & fast Any dev for ace can take it as an interest/challenge & make it possible... I know it's easier said than done but yes, it has always been a dream. Additionally it would be just great if its made to look close to the stock JB by google... So here we go...

you DO know how to google?? We already have a "working" CM10 (i use it for daily use. its laggy as faq if you open something, but everything besides camcorder is working)
use this or the "light" or whatever builds. afaik they all "look like stock"
and Ace will never have a "Stock-JB". a "selfmade-stock" is...u know...

I already know that there can't be any stock jb for ace The jb rom stated by you, I already have it but I want a rom with all working features. You might have seen the screenies of galaxy nexus jb, they look just awesome ! What I meant to say is a developed rom that looks like an official update & has all the working features without lag... ! I know it's hard doing it but not impossible !
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda premium
JB was never meant to run on our -say it how it is- sh!tty hardware. if you mean something that looks like an official SAMSUNG update, i think there is sth. like that already here.
@performance: i think there is a little room for optimization, but it will never run like on the latest NEXUS or Galaxy S
Agreed. Our phone hardware is a serious let down. Gonna buy a Nexus 4 this dec. . So desperate to have it in hands, I can barely wait ! And hey, in the meanwhile maclaw is back on deving. He's left xda & never returning but deving @ maclaw.pl ; hopefully he has the potential to bring something like what I spoke Just hope it comes true...

Hello mates !
I've been trying roms for my galaxy s2 for like 2 weeks now, but I have never found a bug free, or at least a non-annoying buged rom
Some roms have this "low fps" or I guess they call it the ink effect ? when you wake your phone the screen gets back to it's brightness in a laggy way
Some roms rest the sound, for exemple I'm playing a game and I trun media volume all the way down, if I press home botton, and then get back the the game, the media sounds gets back all the way up
Most of the stock based roms drains battery and RAM ( whenever I press the kill all botton in the task manager, it tells me that 24 apps were closed)
So please if you know any rom that has non of these bugs, please tell me because I'm fed up
thank you
there is no rom that is totally bug free, you will have to experiment till you find one that you can live with.
By the way it is against the rules to ask this type of question, next time read the first sticky on this forum.

There are no such things as bug free roms. Even stock roms have bugs. Thats why they update the softwares frequently. Most stock modified ICS roms and AOKP JB roms are near perfect.

Best rom threads are a no no. because it's all subjective. What might be the best rom for one person sucks for another. Only way to find out is to try them all and find which is best for you and your needs
