I've been on latest stock for a while, but it became slower and slower during time, so I've decided to root and in give few ROMs a try. I've flashed OmniROM and Android Revolution, but my phone is still much slower and laggier in comparison to Galaxy SII (on neatrom) or Galaxy Nexus (on omnimetal). Even Galaxy S1 with latest CM works better.
I've also noticed that it takes very long for MMS to be send, perhaps it's somehow related?
Any ideas what else could I try? OmniROM and Android Revolution should be fast and snappy, right? What could be the problem then?
I've heard that some i9300 phones might have hardware defect that causes similar problems. Is that true?

Backup any data you need from internal sd card then format internal card this solves many issues with lag especially when you switch between alot of roms like I do.

try blekota s5 rom it's very fast and smooth it's based on archiport
GTI9300 will be faster if you flash aosp roms like cyanogen mod or paranoid android. Prepare to lose some samsung features tho and have some extra bugs.. the trade is worth it imho.
EDIT:typos

Or do a mega wipe. Its mean full wipe + wipe system and internal SD And flash a new ROM
I can vouch for the Revolution HD ROM
About a month ago I switched from the pre-installed T-Mobile ROM to Revolution HD 51.0 on my Samsung Galaxy S3 (GT-I9300) and I have no regrets. Compared to the T-Mobile Rom, it is extremely fast and with very light battery consumption. In addition, I have not yet encountered any bugs.
The Revolution HD ROM is so fast that I have now begun using the search feature in the dialer - before, it was just as slow to scroll with the alphabet and finding the contact as it was using the search function.
The battery consumption is incredible! With light usage, my battery goes down less than 0.8%/hour. Even with high usage (>1.5 hour talk, ~1 hour WiFi/mobile data internet, >3 hour Bluetooth hook-up to my car, a handful of written emails and >30m sudoku per 24 hours) I have not been using over 1.4%/hour. I have gone from recharging every two days to every three-four days! My record was 97 hours without a charge and still 18% juice left in the box.
I use GPS navigation once in a while in my car and that consumes a lot of battery, but then the device is always connected to power (I haven't gotten around to try GPS navigation without charging just to check the consumption on Revolution HD).
I am not a techie, so I have disabled background services very conservatively (I killed most social app stuff, but I let services with cryptic names be) and I am using the Lightning browser which is fast and very light. In the beginning, I had a bit of trouble with battery performance until I read that the Power Saving feature must always be on. With the T-mobile ROM, the screen was a battery hog even when set on auto, so I set it manually - on the Revolution HD ROM, the auto brightness works well and conserves battery. It should also be said that I live in an area with good signal reception and coverage is good in most places I go (in areas with low reception, the device will automatically increase the juice for the radio unit).
I am very excited about the Revolution HD ROM, but I cannot tell you how it performs if you do a lot of social networking stuff (I primarily use the phone for work).

One solution is to format the internal memory like @tallman43 suggested.
Another reason maybe extra heat on processors. Did you notice this or the temperature is normal?
You can try flashing a different kernel and see if it makes any difference.
MMS sending is more dependent on network speeds so it could be unrelated.

try neatrom Lite v75 full with boeffla kernel and if u can find archi profile (performance) and u could clock to 1700 on boeffla config....i am now on resurrection remix rom 4.4.2 and phone is fast as hell ..it has minor bugs tho..

I'm looking for a pure aosp job 4.2.2 ROM for an MTK6589 Samsung gs4 clone which has ported features of the orig one but I don't like those nifty feats on the clone though coz battery drains for like 3-4 hours non stop use and performance also is kinda for a quad core mtk and it also takes up alot of internal space.......
Pls help....

hello everyone,
i have a galaxy s3 i9300 with android 4.3 installed.i noticed that the battery suddenly drains faster than before.i bought a new original battery and the phone was fine for a while and than the drainage began again.i replaced it with a another new one and that didn't help either.i would appreciate your help.going half crazy.i did not notice some app that woud cause the drain.suggestions??
@zoro863: means 'original battery' from Samsung? Amazon fe offers many of these, all called and look original, for ~15€, but they are badder.
it is an original one i bought from a respected shop
@zoro863: there's written very much about battery-items. To decide, if your drain is caused by hard- or software, I advice to flash NCSROM (hardly debloated actual firmware, which I always use as reference): use it with governor zzmoove /battery plus whithout any apps added, for 2d. Expect SOT~6h. If less, it's hardware caused.
Hi to everybody,
I would like to a Rom for my Galaxy S3 (I9300) that it improve battery life, exploiting the full potential of the phone itself.
I used the MD4 ROM v13, but suddenly it is reset by itself. Waiting for your suggestions, thanks you.
I use QS-I9300 and it's great.
Battery life is very good and system is fast
Hi all,
I am after a simple Custom ROM to install that is easy on the RAM usage and also good battery life. Had a look at many ROM's but confused as which one would be best.
i got the same condition bro.. anyone to help?
