Hello,
I just joined XDA im on this forum for a week now and i kind off like it. I decided to root my phone because i want more battery life and AOSP like phone.
I have an International Samsung Gakaxy S3 i9300 with CM 6 recovery.
Rooted ofc
I searched all week for a rom but just couldnt find one for my needs.
So can you help my guys by finding a good rom and kernel for me? and im on the base version i9300DXELK1.
What i need:
AOSP Look rom, like the nexus phones.
Best battery life possible
Customize my rom (doesnt have to be in the rom, its cool to download a ZIP theme and flash it (the rom needs support. I tryd with foxhound but the foxhound options were missing with a theme it was the JKAY theme, I just want to have a high theme choise, and diffrent icons you know.)
Able to install mods etc.
AOSP Apps, like camera dailer, messaging, etc etc.
AOSP Lockscreen (Not the 4.2 widget one)
What i like to have:
4.2 Sphere camera.
4.1 Toggles on notification bar.
Able to mod my rom.
DPI Changer (dont need just like to have).
I am also looking for a good kernel that even more gives me more battery life. Im running siyah, im asking this because maybe theres a better battery life kernel then siyah
Thanks for reading
I hope i made this post good.

You need to try out and see only then you'll know!! i use omega but i tried out a lot before sticking with this
Slim bean is awesome. Apparently you can get massive battery life with other kernels too.

try foxhound.although it is jb 4.1.2 you can install swipe keyboard and photosphere camera on foxhound ota.
Foxhound isnt themeable:S And i prefer 4,1 jb im trying slim bean now i kinda like it, but i dont like the launcher because its not the standart launcher.
But final qeustion is there a CM or AOKP 4.1 what is stable (No bugs or almost no bugs) I only see nightlys of it. I think stock cm is best for me isnt it?
Yeah im kinda a critic xd. sorry
i recently started installing custom roms also, i tried cyanogen mod 10 which i found to be ok but a bit of a rough feel. then i tried ultima rom and to be honest its brilliant. if all else fails google
Discussing what the best/most stable/good ROM is is against the rules, reported
DO NOT POST A "What's the best ROM/Kernel/Theme?" THREAD!
Hi,
I'm amazed with CM10.1 speed, responsiveness and others, but I hate many things in it. I hate the camera app, widgets bar and that everything is black/blue. Is there any stock rom that could compete with CM10.1?

Its like comparing chips and a mouse. AOKP/AOKP will defaultly be faster because there is less in the actual ROM and default Stock OS has everything the software/phone manufacturer could cram into it eg: Samsung
Your best bet is to go with a stock ROM that is either stripped or one that you can choose the applications you want with it eg: Sotmax... or maybe even a hybrid ROM...
Hope this helps, and please correct me if i have said something wrongly anywhere:good::fingers-crossed::good::laugh:

Actually never tried it myself also just fixed my phone so i will try it later:good:
Since OP's question has been answered, we do not want this to turn into another "best rom" thread.
On that note, Thread Closed
Hey, first of all thanks alot for all the development and crazy amount of information going on in here
I have searched but unfortunately I couldn't find a solution to my problem so I'm asking here. I recently installed official Cyanogenmod 10.2 stable release on my i9300 international S3 (since CM11 gave me some bugs) and it's pretty great so far, but I've been searching a way to change the color settings of the screen. On CM there are some built in ones but I don't really like those. On the 4.3 Stock Samsung ROM there was "Professional Photo" or something like that that I did like. Does anyone know what I can do? If I understood correctly kernels can do that sort of stuff but I didn't find a kernel to suit my needs.
Thanks in advance
You Got It Right

Yes you understood it correctly If your Planning to run a ROM based on CM Screen modes like Dynamic, Professional Photo etc Are available only through custom Kernel.
In Sammy as v all know you can change it under settings but for CM unfortunately you have to stick to Kernel Settings to do that.
Almost All popular Kernels Have that option under Screen>MDNIE mode
All you have to do is select the right kernel
Unfortunatly You asked a Question in this Thread and Also Gave an answer for the same.
Just remeber that for CM ul have to stick to some Externel Kernel as these options wont be available with stock CM 10.2 Kernel as well
Just as a recommendation give GoogyMax , Boeffla, Agni a try as these gave me really good results(Special Thx to Dev's of the same )

Thanks for the reply
I've looked into GoogyMax and Boeffla but as far as I could tell they don't support color changing. If I do install them what can I do to change the colors?
And I have yet to install a kernel, does it come in a zip file that I can install in CWM?

Another question, say I install the kernel and I want to update to CM11 or flash a Samsung based ROM. I need to first flash a new kernel and then install the ROM? Where can I download the stock CM kernel?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/help/gps-cm-10-2-i9300-t2667873
I'm really frustrated because I like vanilla android and CM is just so much faster than TouchWiz (I'm no won Android Revolution HD 40.0), I switched just because of the GPS issue but I really don't want it as my daily driver.. Maybe a different AOSP based ROM you know that the GPS would work in?

Strange To hear that. Well ive never used Stock CM so cant Comment on that GPS issue.
As Far As Now the AOSP or AOKP Roms ive used have never Had this GPS issue. You Can Try Anyone From Below Thread (CM 10.2/1)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/orig-development/10-04-index-roms-t2218825
For me i would have chosen between PACMAN PARANOID n SLIMBEAN . All are great for Daily use
Also Check out This ROM. MY personal favourite Amongst All. Bug Free and Stable , Archidroid but its KK
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/development/rom-archidroid-v2-3-3-power-hands-t2354859
Yes CM is definately Smoother than TouchWIz( Thx to Free RAM ). But Try out the ArchiDroid Stock Sammy ROM. You Might Like it for its smoothness
Rom recommendations are not allowed on xda. You have to try out and search for which rom suits u the best same goes with kernels

One thing to note here , choose any room of your liking, but better not install s5 apps. You might face ram issues. Using s5 sensation rom for 4 days and it is smooth and working great with minimal s5 apps
Archidroid cyanogenmod version
I would recommend paranoid 4.6 beta1 or Blekota s5 v7
Can't vouch for others mentioned as i havent used other Sammy roms
it depend if u prefer Samsung features (with some lag but good camera for example....) or u prefer phone more speedy but without Samsung features!
so...
about 4.4.2 exist:
- PORT ROM from note 2 (with samsung features)
- AOSP ROM like cyanogen and all others (more speedy but without samsung features)
only u can decide!!
if you want kk (stock) with out s5 features then QS-i9300-KK is gud option.
Miui.
You're a noob on Xda developers ....

This is easy, stay away from Samsung based roms and use a minimal gapps package. (Play-store etc, music won't affect performance tbh)

It's a known CM13 bug. It will be fixed hopefully in next update. Until then you can use another alarm app or just stick with the force close like what I do.

the kind of requirements you have, you can try
1. justArchi 4.3 ROM in the development thread.. it is a very stable and smooth ROM
2. QS KK 4.3 ROM
4.4.x ROMs are ports from higher devices and may not be what you need.. still if you want to try, you can try the following
1. QS-KK 4.4.2 ROM (NL1 is the smoothest)
2. Eclipse ROM
3. Hyper ROM (v1 is much stable)
Hope it helps
When I call someone , the voice of the person speaking to me is distorted, similar to the robot . I downloaded the alarm from google play . I had it for a number of ROM . I liked ROM DIrtyUnicorn 8.2 but unfortunately it also occurs as in many others. I do not understand this

There's a flashable camera zip (if only you read the thread...) And you were looking for a stable ROM, not an "entertaining" ROM. You can use CM13 if you want to be entertained by the huge pile of bug it has.

In my opinion , Neat ROM (Android 4.3) is one of the best ROM that fits Stable and Fast.
Another one is going to be Blekota S5 Lite V12 (Android 4.4.2) but that ROM has some text errors. For example when you disable Airplane Mode on the lockscreen it's going to tell you some random crap but actually it means "Do you want to disable Airplane mode?"

So n00t (or stock) are both stable and fast.
CM is neither stable nor fast.
What is your point?

you cannot simply expect a non-stock ROM to be as stable, I already said the official CM11 is the most stable with these tight requirements you are throwing at us.
