Hello guys, I am looking for a rom for my new S3. Since I am coming from Nexus S, I really enjoy the stock JB look. My question is, is there any rom that looks stock as JB, but is also preferably not AOSP/AOKP, CM based? Thanks in advance

There are several, the most stock like are JB AOSP and SuperNexus, Cyanogen Mod 10 and Ressurection Remix and Paranoid android 4.1.2 are more advanced options with overclocking, modding the notofication tray and more.

I was exactly in your situation (coming from Nexus S) and I ended up using SuperNexus.
But you have to take into account that SuperNexus (as many other AOSP roms derived from CyanogenMod, which try to leverage the SGS3 hardware) will not give you some Samsung proprietary functionalities (e.g. radio, Samsung camera app, etc.).
I also tried CodecROM, which comes from the opposite direction (a Samsung rom with an AOSP look), but I found it already too customised (even selecting the minimum customisation in the Aroma installation) and strongly themed.
I'm still looking for a perfect combination, i.e. a Samsung-based stock rom with a minimal AOSP (Nexus) look.
Anyone with a good recommendation?
I am using sotmax stock jellybean v8, has stock looks with many modifications, very stable, I use siyah kernel
If you're just caring about looks, get a launcher on top of any rom with stock jb theme.

Hi
This is my first thread so please bear with me.
i am an iphone fan convert to samsung so do not know much about rom/rooting but using and becoming used to it.
So far i have flashed my s3 with cyanogenmod v8.0 -9.0 and omega 7.1, - 9.0 i like the features of omega but really miss the ios(iphone) style folder generation that cyanogenmod have.
can that feature be ported from CM to omega or is there an easy way of enabling it on omega rom?
thank you
It can't be ported but you can use a different launcher like Apex or Nova. Both apps should be able to do this.

Hey!
I see that the CM based roms are somehow not so popular on SGS3. Why?
And stock based roms are so active
So?
Cause Samsung knows how to do it.
Probably The Memory Leak
still loving CM here.
Hey Everyone,
I have been using stock 4.1 samsung Rom since over a month now, pretty much satisfied with its performance. I have tried CM 10.1, PA 3 but camera considerably sucks.And den I again go back to stock Rom after using it for a week or so! and yes i haven't tried Cm since a month now. So people, can you tell me any change is Camera and overall stability of Cm 10.1 in latest build and the Best available 4.2 Rom? Best in overall experience?
Thanks

Greetings guys,
Can anyone recommend me a good and stable ROM without bugs for Samsung galaxy s3 . I had previously Cyanogenmod but the camera bug was really annoying.
Thank you.
CM11 M12 snapshot is most stable and bug free I know of. Maybe you should also try old UGNA5 stock rom. It's quite good but only 4.3. In other hand camera works flawlessly in this edition.

If you want Sammy stock I recommend QS stock 4.4.2 or Neat Rom stock 4.3.
But, if you want aosp lollipop, I recommend Euphoria. I try this for a week, it run more stable than CM 12.1. I just seen messaging app fc only. Solution is 3rd party sms app likes Textra, etc
These have balance of Performance, Rock stable and Battery friendly.
If you are looking for stock sammy then I'll suggest you Back to Noot 4.4.4 pure stock Rom by Arter97. Its ported from Samsung S3 LTE version since that version had 4.4.4 released by Samsung. With boeffla kernel V7.6
I am using this Rom for 3 or 4 months now since first day it was released. Rock solid and no artificial stuff just pure stock Rom.
Boeffla kernel 7.6 was released some two or three days back. So i can't say about it yet. But 7.5 version of the kernel was pretty solid.
And if you are looking for something stock in android 4.4.2 then I'll suggest QS Rom with latest boeffla kernel 6.xx. its ported from Samsung Note 2 and is a pretty good work. Stable and trouble free. I moved from this Rom to Back to Noot 4.4.4 as ofcourse it has more latest android.

Does the camera work also in CM11 M12 snapshot?
depends on what you for looking for in a rom
The issue of roms is like fleets of vehicles. They both gas and they cause accidents.. For me I would opt for a well known Rom like touch wiz based for stability purposes and cynogen based for fancy and style. Going on a Rom that is new is both fun and classic but using well researched roms is peaceful.. you would never got the n00t way since I had the latest version 9 unable to pic signal and crashed imei.. efs. ... I suggest hypermax for speedy phone ..... roms are like cars.... you always admire what u don't have. Do more practicals to discover your taste. ... For me am on carbon. ..

What is The Fastest Custom Rom For S3 GT-I9300?
Low Memory Consuming Rom?
This is not a forum for opinions...
But ok, lineageos or any 4.4 rom should do the job.
a 4.4 custom sammy rom for sure.
theres something about the samsung stock look that just works on the S3
Stock based 4.4.4 roms are the best they are based on i9305 touchwiz both phones are very similar.

true that. Samsung should have officially released kitkat for the i9300.
