Hi and welcome to XDA.
I would recommend slimsaber 4.4.4 by Fusionjack. It is stable, fast and battery friendly. I'm personally using Fusionjack's build so I dont experience force closures while in GPS.
I thing I would recommend changing in the ROM is the DPI using an app like Textdroider so that it is easier to navigate through the UI. The default DPI of the S2 is 240.
The reason why I recommend a KitKat ROM over Marshmallow for example is because Marshmallow and newer android versions will never be as smooth as older versions of android. Battery life is a lot worse and not very easy to switch to for beginners.
For best stability and battery life, stick with Stock Jelly Bean.

Will never be as smooth as older version??? Did't understand about your perception?? Did you mean for our device only??

What I meant was android lollipop and marshmallow is a lot more resource heavy. Our device doesn't have much RAM so it can have negative effects to performance and battery life.

I recommend CM 10.2

Hi all,
I keep reading but I don't seem to find a definite answer for this question. I read somewhere that because of i9300 processor (samsung didn't reveal the codes or sth) the performance and battery life on Custom ROM based on AOSP and CM is not as satisfactory as Stock or Touch-wiz based roms.
Is this true? I love to use CM but the battery indeed seems to drain faster. Any idea of when i9300 users might get to use solid AOSP or CM based ROMs?
Thanks mates!
I am curious about this too. It seems that AOSP ROMS will always be imperfect as long as the Exynos codes arent released.

I have messed around with a few ROMS (mainly sammy based one's) and using a SAMMY ROM with a new launcher is a strong base.
Why not start by finding a good sammy based ROM (i'm using Viking ROM although may switch to HyperLight) get a nice setup, then you can simply backup and mess with ASOP & CM yourself knowing you have a rock solid alternative to fall back on.
You can make up your own mind then ^^

Cm10 is rock stable and has better battery life than sammy. (For me) but camera has some problems. Just try it. You can always revert it to sammy

CM10 is still nightly build right? I tried some ROMs like slimbean and liquid smooth but the battery performance is significantly not as good as stock. Am i right?
Yes right...
The stock ROM gives awesome battery life...
I tried CM10 but it seems to drain battery faster...i mean not that faster...
On my galaxy sl i9003 you cant even imagine what actually battery drain is....
Life 7hrs and gone but on my S3 the battery is OK about a day or day and a half and still 34% left !!

Wah. A day and a half??? I can't even achieve it with stock rom. What kind of tweaks do you use?
I just rooted a while ago and have just been flashing ROM this and that. Have never tried custom kernels or mods.
Would love to hear some tweaks that will last me 1.5 days with CM10. haha. Share with me bro.
If you can tolerate the few minor issues/glitches here and there, nothing beats CM10.

okay. So i do not need any kernel and tweaks for excellent battery life is it?
tried so often cm9&cm10, lately slimbean.
was AOSP fan on my desire, but not on the s3 (yet)
none of them made me stick to AOSP for more than 1week...
too many "bugs" - minor things who annoyed me like: **** camera&video (unstable), battery life, calling bugs (low voice volume) etc
ive to admit that slimbean + siyah kernel beats everything, the battery life is rly nice (nearly liek sammy roms). siyah kernel helps alot concerning the battery life on AOSP!
still ive to use a sammy rom cuz of stability and reliability.
id look forward to a fully working AOSP rom, hopefully soon.

What good is a ROM that is stable (as in doesn't crash) but ISN'T fully functional (as in has issues w/ hardware) ?
I want a ROM that is both stable and fully functional, even if it isn't the benchmark champion.
For me, the stock ROMs offer the best of the 2 worlds: they are stable and functional.
Yeah, let the flame start, but I am yet to see an AOKP/AOSP/CM ROM that doesn't have a single issue with hardware.
So, stock ROMs for me are the winner.
I use NOVA Launcher Prime, BTW, but the TouchWiz that came with today's stock JB (France, XEF) is extremely fast and as customizable as Nova Launcher.

There is miui rom that offers sammy+miui experience. I think it's called rayglobe, but it's based on 4.0.4 so it is never as smooth as jb

Hey guys,
since i'm an owner of an S3 i tried a LOT of CM rom's.
There a lot i like, but sometimes it feels a bit like a "different" phone, e.g. some features are missing etc.
So, im thinking about to switch to an modded stock rom for a great performance and huge batterylife..
Or is CM the best way for performance and battery?
thanks guys.

Stock touchwiz roms generally have better battery performance, even with custom kernels in my opinion. Its all about how you want it to look, feel, perform and last but you cannot have 100% on all, so you have to mke sacrifices for the features that mean most to you. There is no "Best ROM"
Yeah i know that there's no "best ROM"
I'm currently not sure.. CM or a modified stock ROM, both have their advantages i know, but i feel that the CM rom's having a higher battery drain... but i dont know about the performance on stock i guess CM is a bit better on the performance?!

The icons are standard jellybean blue but you can change them to what you want in hybrid settings

What is the best AOSP ROM based on stock sources for the Kenzo? I don't mind having lollipop but would like the option of a clean ROM with the least amount of bugs.

Upon doing a bit of digging this F-Droid rom looks tasty also! http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/development/kenzo-f-rom-v1-t3374617
I am not pushed about having M , Lollipop will do as long as it is a good non bloated ROM based on Pure android with little to no bugs I am good to go with all the bells and whistles working such as fingerprint sensor, infrared etc.
If there are any decent MIUI apps they can alwats be backed up and reinstalled.
Benchmarks should be more than stock, I was getting 50,000+ antutu with my 1.8ghz atom 16gb 2gb zenfone 2 , I wan't 80,000.
I'm using krexus, it makes other ROMs feels like full of bloat

Hi. I'm going on a 2 week trip, and i need to have my s3 in best condition
I look for fast and battery friendly rom for i9300, based on 5.0 (5.0.1/.2/.3) 5.1(.1) or 6.0(.1)
I was trying out Archidroid 3.1.5 (5.1.1 ) and it's doing ok but battery life is a little bit disappointing
Please help me choose the correct one
Ressurecton remix rom
I think this rom is the best. It is based on cyanogen mod and has all features of the other roms. Battery life is amazing and performance is liquid smooth
5.7.1 is the latest and is operating on android 6.0.1
(Cant post URL cause i a new member lol)
Hope this helps you!
@aciupapa, I'm amazed. I recommend Slim 5.1 +Agni 5.10.3OC (zzmoove /battery).

Res Remix has got Omni and features of slim rom. This is one of the reasons i love res remix. Got all the features of other roms!☺
Thanks guys for reply Will check them both.
@aciupapa:,I forgot to mention: I run Slim5 without GCrap and fat apps and zero zRAM. And yes, it's still a smartphone
@rp158 OK. Will try. Also I will try the LiquidSmooth rom (as name says it should be smooth )

I was happy with CM13 when I was using a d2tmo S3. Turning off background data and disabling wakeup permissions for the piggy apps did wonders for the battery, as well as barring Google Play services from waking up or accessing location. But if you're traveling, buy a spare battery or two and an external battery charger, you can get both for $20 US on ebay. That way you'll never be caught short.
what is the best rom for i9300 that is smooth and stable regardless of android version?
LineageOS 7.1.1, I believe the Battery life is bad but the Performance is good. I tried many ROMS such as (Resurrection Remix. CrDriod, MIUI 7 and 8(Beautiful UI but laggy), HyperRom and many more) all of them were lagging and very bad battery life.
