A few ROM Questions.. - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello all, been on these forums a while but never really posted that much, never posted in the Galaxy S3 section. I originally started with a Galaxy S2, then went to a HTC One X and I'm not firmly back with the device that i love, the Galaxy S3, however...
I'm a stock person, but i love tweaks/mods, the reason i love Stock so much on the Galaxy S3 is the Smart-stay feature (i don't believe its on any of the custom Roms for the GS3??) and the Multi Window (again i don't believe its available on any custom Roms?).. so I'm wondering if there are any Roms that either keep the two features i love the most in them, and have some nice tweaks/mods. :good:
I'm grateful in advanced to anyone who replies with help

Pretty much all the Samsung based custom Roms have these features

Hi
since your question is not about "best rom" (against rules), but rather about which custom rom's support smart stay and multi window, I will dare to reply

All the roms have a readable description on the first page .

Yep , all features are in custom rom's. Im in uk and there was no update for the phone so I was without stay smart, multiwindows etc but now all is here. Look for best rom that suits you as i already tried 4 different before choosing The One.
Good Luck!

I tried CyanogenMod 10.1 but that doesn't have SmartStay or Multi-Window in??

[Q] Newly Rooted Tab :Which Is The Best Stable Yet Responsive Rom & Kernel Available?
Hey Guys...I Just Got My Galaxy Tab Today And Just Finished Rooting It Without A Hitch. Now My Only Problem Is I Don't Know Which Rom To Choose. I Have A Rooted S2 E4GT And Pretty Much Know Which Roms And Devs I Get The Best Results With And I Kinda Figured That The Same Roms Would Be Available But Just In Tablet Form. To My Surprise I Only Saw A Couple Familiar Dev Names. And With Each Tablet Or Phone Ive Owned Theres Been A Go To Guy On Youtube That Kinda Gives You The Reviews On Certain Roms Or The Latest Tweak Available, But With This Tablet Ive Found No Such Luck At This Point....So I Decided To Ask You Great Minds On XDA To Lead Me In A Direction Of A Good STABLE Yet RESPONSIVE ROM AND What KERNELS Best Suit This Type Rom And Also If You Happen To Know A Dev Or Tester On Youtube That Pretty Much Deals With Everything Galaxy Tab. THANKS ALOT GUYS YOUR HELP IS REALLY APPRECIATED!!!!!!
I think Galaxy Task 7.0 by Task650. It pretty has it all. Very stable,great dev keeps it up to date.
The Overcome ROM is also very good. I am running it on may 10.1 and its great
Kernel: i think the most popular is the Pershoot kernel!

If you read through Galaxy task post there are some youtube videos that show the tablet in action, I have never tried the overcom rom so I won't say Task's is better, but I will say that this tab flys on Task's rom. Just my 2 cents
I also support Task's Galaxy Task ROM.
Best kernal is pershoot's kernal which is already incorporated in Task's ROM
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

Oddly enough, there's actually an entire section of subforums here dedicated to the Samsung Galaxy Nexus. Your query may be better served there...
Though really, if you used the search function you would quickly find answers to what you're asking. Oh, look!
As for any questions that start with "What is the best...?", don't bother asking. Everyone has a different opinion on what ROM, kernel, radio, theme, phone, etc is best. Try them out and decide for yourself what works best for you.

ROM Request: Full S4 Experience on Samsung Galaxy S2

Hello fellow citizens of the world. I'm sorry if this is not the place for this kind of post, but I tried to find other places to post but none seemed right for this post, so I decided to post here. I would like to ask any developer for a request on a ROM for Samsung Galaxy S2 GT-i9100.
As many of you know, Galaxy S4 recently came to the market, and I bet I am not the only one who like the looks and functions of it. Even though Samsung have their own special version/edition of 4.2.2, I think it is pretty nice.
I have a request for a custom Samsung Galaxy i9100 ROM, based on the S4's i9505XXUAMDE, A.K.A. S4's 4.2.2
I would like to have as many of the functions as possible, especially the status bar with all the options, expandable notifications (etc.), and the TouchWiz launcher.
(Yes, I have searched the web for anything like this)
I'm sure there are more people out there who would love a ROM like this. Feel free to add anything you think might fit and be nice as well.
Thanks in advance.
Hate to break it to you, but a couple of things:-
1) Devs generally don't read Q&A much.
2) Devs don't do requests unless it relates to something they're already working on or want to work on for themselves.
So the TL;DR is, if you want a rom like that, you probably want to learn to code & make it yourself. Doesn't matter how many people you get in this thread saying 'We want blah blah blah', it doesn't work like that. XDA isn't a democracy.

[q] stock rom better?

I just had a brand new GS3 and have been playing with it quite a lot these past days
I've done many things such as root it, download free paid apps with it, used different launchers with it, etc.
But the latest thing I did, to see what all the fuss was about was to upgrade my GS3 to Cyanogenmod 10.1 Nightly
I mean a lot of people are doing it so I thought it was all good, well at least at the beginning it seemed to be
I have to say at first glance it seemed like a great deal for me, having a spanking new lockscreen, notification bar, overall stock phone and messaging applications, and a sleek looking camera
Everything looked fine, until I tried out many of the new stuff out...
First of all the new camera was pretty ok but had one major drawback for me, the HDR mode
You see in the original GS3 ROM the cameras HDR mode was like lightning, you wouldn't notice that it takes separate photos to make the unified, balanced exposure photo
While in the new camera you can notice a time delay of something like .2-.5 seconds between each photograph that the camera takes in order to make you new HDR photo
The result? a badly stitched photo because of shaky hands. And even using "great" paid camera apps produced the same results
Next in the phone application itself, it looked nice and dandy until I noticed that the option for video calling totally disappeared...
And can I say video calling is by far one of my most used things in my GS3 if not the most after the texting and normal calls
I mean hey, I can make a video call anytime anywhere without internet isn't that awesome?!?
Well actually those two are my only real problems... the others could be the disappearance of my stock Samsung apps such as S Note or S Memo but those can be easily replaced with similar apps from the Play Store, and of course what other stock Samsung apps that dissapeared were the Samsung App store, S Voice, etc. which I liked to have been taken out
That said the Cyanogenmod ROM for me looked more like a launcher with added features but nothing else more, it did not have much of it's own "original" apps and that was kind of okay I guess
BUT MY CONCLUDING QUESTION IS
are all custom ROMs like this? will they all overwrite my beautiful video calling and camera capabilities or was it just the Cyanogenmod ROM?
I'm looking up into other ROMs like "Universe S4 ROM" or "Imperium ROM" for my GS3 and just wanted to know before I either invest a good amount of time or just waste it if those ROMs will or will not take out the bad and add mroe good to my GS3 especially the "Universe S4 ROM" since it said that it will add apps that are exclusive to the GS4 like the S Translate.
Thanks in advance for the replies!
CM and camera is a well posted problem .
You have to do some research first then decide if what the custom rom offers outweighs the bugs .
The S4 apps are a work in progress some work 100% some fail others have bugs that developers try and solve .
You would be better to stick with a stock rooted rom or even a bare bones stock custom Samsung rom .

glamour s4
You should try glamour s4 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2258723 by henry
It has nearly all the apps from the galaxy s4 you can get from the aroma launcher ( In recovery)
And my battery life is extended to nearly 3 hours more!

Thank you very much for this!
I'm still wondering if there are custom ROMs that still have the video call and camera the GS3 or are my only options really those bare bones stock custom Samsung ROMs? If so where can I look to have an easier time finding those types of ROMs I need?
And is an GS4 ROM one of those stock rooted ROM or bare bones stock custom Samsung ROMs that you're talking about or is it a totally different ROM already that doesn't have the video call and camera that I'm looking for?
Because I see all of these ROMs and their offers but I don't know where to look within the forums to know if they do or do not have the two simple aspects that I'm looking for.

Thanks too for this!
But as with the other reply I still have the same question.
Can I still make standard Samsung/Android video calls with this one and is the S4 camera that comes with this as good (or better) than the S3 camera?
I really do hope it does and I'll give it a shot!

By default, this ROM comes with S3 camera. You can find the S4 camera in Aroma. But the S4 camera is quite buggy, video recording some other functions are not wroking yet. Henry is trying his best to make it work. I would reccomend you to try Glamour S4 ROM. Brilliantly smooth and excellent.
In my opinion, cyanogenmod is the most overrated rom in the android. Just a little speed improvement and lots of missing features and problems.
You should try roms based on samsung roms.

I do wish to try out ROMs based on Samsung ROMs
I'd like to ask what ROMs would those be?
Or at least what or where should I search to know if the ROMs would be Samsung based?
Are there indicators?

* Which are the best roms for SGS2 if you could choose one?
Thanks in advance!!

ah the SGS2... not sure about the dual booting (never tried it) but as far as roms im a touchwiz fan lol and the lightest rom i liked was called NeatRom... you should be able to find it under the SGS2 section... goodluck and congratz
there is no such thing as a best rom. This thread will stay open to answer the other questions but best rom questions will not be allowed. it is recommended that members read and study on their own to determine what rom is best for them.
I will defenitly not use a TW rom because Touchwizz is the worst experience that i have ever experienced on my devices
I just wanna get a good rom that´s familair with MIUI !
