Hi guys, I'm new in this forum.
I would ask some question... I have buy a few days ago a clone of SGS3, maybe the better clone ever made. Equal cover(i use an original cover on the clone), equal battery, microsim, brand (front, back, battery, battery compartment, start and off), equal theme etc... Have a good hardware, I play on this phone with many game like subway surfer or gta vice city without problem... Now I would make a custom rom for this device, for me is a good phone and deserves a good custom rom to fix small problem and improve the performance (on the antutu 2.9 the score are about 11 thousad, antutu 3, about 5 thousand). For start, which are the things to make/modify a rom? Is possible to backup the original rom to modify that without problem? Now I don't remember other question XD
Thank you all and thank you for the answers...
yes, you need the phone rooted
Yes, you need the phone rooted, have a copy of your rom via CWM recovery and check if your device is AOSP based (no idea what that means) there are many threads about how to port your rom into a custom rom (CNM9 and Paranoid Android)

Hello, I'm new in this forum
I have got a totally unknown China phone (Growing LION GMQ5712) with the CPU chip MTK6589.
There aren't any custom ROM's for it, just beacuse it's so unknown, so I have decided to make it myself.
I have contacted the help center and they can send me the stock ROM...
Is there any way to take my stock ROM, a "base" version of AOKP, CM, (or whatever) and mix them to make a ROM that works fine in my device?
Maybe taking the kernel from the stock to the custom? (I don't have much knoledge in Android :laugh:... )

hello,
i searching for a stable Rom for a friend for the galaxy ace.... he is a absoute noob and his phone is very slow.... wich Rom should i use?
thanks for the answers!
@made-in-tirol, Ace GT-S5830i/C/M/39i known as Cooperve device, comes with the official version 2.3.6 (Gingerbread) which, can be rooted and be optimized into perfection without any serious custom mod installation for person who has no need of tinkering with his/her device constantly. ( flashing some custom kernel is needed to maintain full performance and battery optimization, if you have problems).
FYI there is no Rom, which labeled as "most stable". However from my experience I encountered fewer bugs; regular flow of updates when I used Touchwiz Resurrected V2. On the contrary though some people prefer CM7 ROMs over any other non cyanogen mod any day

Thank U all, im here from almost begining of XDA, but just watching and home working 4 my own pleasure,and others as well, couse that is one of my afections, hobies and jobs
Cheers to ALL !
N00b recently obtained a S3, rooted it with Kingo root & need some advice. on how to proceed next...
First of all i would like to point out that i have read several threads here in Q&A and in DEV and i must say the amount of ROMS and possibilities are quite overwhelming. That's why i am posting this Q...
Second: i don't want to switch ROM's all the time, i just want to install one good working, stable & fast ROM without the hassle of adding extra's, removing bloatware, try different kernels/bugfixes etc... It just needs to work.
Also i like to have: a dark layout for the Phone (saves energy and looks much better to me)
As little bloatware as possible , i just want it to be working fast & stable/flawless (i will install the stuff i really need myself via google playstore if possible)
Some Questions
- On my HTC Sensation XE i have 4EXT (with Viper 521 ROM), would this recovery work for the S3 or should i use someting else and why ?
- Which superuser/SU/else should work best with the S3 ?
- Should i use a 5.1.1 or 4.4.4-based ROM ? I have seen various threads and video-comparisons but none of them could convince me (besides the fact that lollipop is too bright & child-looking for my taste)
- Is there a stable & fully operational version of stock Android 4.4.4 or 5.1.1 for the S3 ? And if not which ROM comes closest ?
I would gratfeully receive any advice which ROM i should pick based on your personal experience(s)
Thnx in advance !
Slimkat 4.4.4 is recommended. Light, fast, no bloat and it has the dark mode you are looking for
Lollipop is no good for the s3 but if you are feeling adventourous you can try out either slimLP or dokdo project.
@cokesucker:
thnx for reply, i guess i'm gonna have to try...
Recovery ? Anyone else ? (read TS plz)
I'm currently using carbon rom kk last nightly from 11/2014 and ArchiKernel 2.1 old aosp. This is my daily driver. For recovery us TWRP always

Thnx :good:
Btw:
Why you think Lollipop is no good for the S3 ?
I was reading & watching (YouTube) some reviews about Archidroid & CM12 & they seem to be quite popular.
Any thoughts ?
Recovery Twrp
5.1.1 Rom ArchiDroid 3.1.4
Kernel Boeffla alpha 17
For a dark theme look at the play store and search for 5.1.1 theme
