I'm contemplating trading my GNex in for a S3 LTE. Was playing with a non-LTE S3 in the shop earlier and noticed the S3 has three dedicated buttons (one hard, two touch) on the bottom that roughly equals the GNex's "menu" (the house-shaped one), back and a funny third button that seems to activate the "options" within apps. JB/ICS has a built in app-switcher but I dont see this or some Samsung version of it in TouchWiz.
Question 1: if I were to install a custom ROM onto the S3, what would those three buttons do? I presume the "back" and "home" buttons would behave the same, would that funny upside-down "U" button then toggle the app-switcher?
Question 2: How does the S3's camera work on a custom ROM? Does it use the native camera app or is there a Samsung camera .apk that can be downloaded? If you use the JB native app, would the photo quality be the same as it would be on a regular S3 w/ the factory ROM? Do the custom ROMS have adequate drivers to support the full 8M and higher sensitivity? The GNex's crap camera is driving me nuts
Question 3: Perhaps the most important question; I want to move onto a custom ROM b/c Samsung's slow at updating their firmware, and also b/c I want to get rid of the customization that comes w/ the S3 (namely TouchWiz and what they've done to the notification/status bars + menus etc). Is there a way to do this w/o going to a custom ROM?
Sorry lots of questions, but the S3 suddenly looks a lot more restrictive than the GNex

1. The buttons do Menu, home and back.
2. I haven't tried many camera apps but they all seem much the same, you will need to try it I suppose.
3. I am not sure if you got confused but I know I did!
You want to install a custom rom without installing a custom rom? No, I don't think you can do that.

Rom Index ..
Button remain the same unless changed by the rom maker .
Camera the same if using Samsung based custom rom.
3 is impossible without using a custom rom .
You can flash stock Samsung firmware often before the update .
You can flash a custom rom with the standard ASOP Android interface .

Tks all for your help. Sorry the 3rd question was terribly written. What I'd meant to ask was whether there was a way to strip all the Samsung customization (mainly how they change the notification menu + settings menu appearance) w/o having to use a custom ROM?
@JJEgan, tks for that ROM index, it's most useful. Are you aware of any ROMs that actually change the menu button back to the "recent apps" screen? How can I get to that functionality within the stock factory ROM? HTC has a funky 3D switcher, does Samsung have something?
Mucho gracias

custom ROM = modification
what you seem to have requested...is to have modification to "strip all the Samsung customization"
so essentially...you will have to look into the option of custom ROMs.
do keep in mind that there are two main types of roms available...
Samsung based custom ROMs and Android Open Source Project (AOSP) ROMs.
Samsung based custom ROMs look virtually to be the same as the original one that you have on the phone when you first unbox it...but with small adjustments and tweaks to fix things that Samsung didnt fix, or forgot to fix...usually this means the same user experience but with better battery life, smoother UI transitions etc...generally further improving the same existing experience...
AOSP ROMs is totally different ROM experience in which many users are also interested in as it gives the user a more raw, more down to earth experience to Android...in addition, due to the fact that AOSP is more rudimentary in nature, it leads to faster rate of updates, fixes as well as modification due to the larger source tree as it relates to a wider range of AOSP compatible devices...
Galaxy Nexus is based on AOSP (without the Samsung Over-Lay) while this does typically mean a more leaner, low fat ROM, it does miss out on certain features such as in-box video playback, HDR camera functions, low motion high FPS camera functions, as well as other nifty and impressive functions...in which you would have actually paid the phone to do...
keep in mind...the Galaxy Nexus does have inferior hardware as far as most users will be concerned...
Samsung's "recent apps" can be shown by press and holding the middle physical button...

Tks buddy. The gNex is by no means a weak phone (for 99% of the population) but certainly the camera and screen leaves much to be desired. Call quality is quite iffy too, maybe b/c its microphones are too sensitive; I take calls on the road and the caller hears every car, pedestrian and bus that goes back. Sure it has dual microphones that does some level of noise cancellation but doesnt do a whole lot of good. The iPhone (esp 5) smokes the gNex here.
I'm not wild about all the Samsung functions but certainly having a better camera app w/ HDR built in, Smart Stay etc is pretty appealing. Samsung-based ROM it is then, if only they could bring back the stock JB look and feel...the cyan/B&W layout is very sleek.
Anyone here tried the LTE version (I9305)? Carriers here in HK are offering it for free w/ an unlimited LTE plan for about US50 a month. Bit of a no-brainer when it's the same effective price as the I9300 w/ more RAM ) but I wonder if there will be less custom ROMs developed, and how LTE battery life compares? I'm not a massive data hog looking to stream videos regularly but I do have to VPN home every few days
why not remove the bloatware?

if you just want to remove the bloatware, have you considered simple rooting the stock firmware (not an upgrade and will block the samsung OTA update), then using a rooted explorer or adb or something (I personally use Titianium Backup to manage all my apps and backups) to delete the bloatware??
if you anything like me (who has been with android a while now) you'll have a set of 3rd party apps - so dont need the S Memo (love noteeverything) for example you can simple remove it from the phone. I did this for a few weeks before I moved to a custom ROM.
Heres a list of what is safe to remove...

HI ALL,
I installed PA 3.99 for Samsung S2(9100) to experience Android 4.3.
But I found some issues,
1. The video call feature is missing.
2. If possible to disable Halo and PieControl, in fact, the screen side of 9100 is too small, these two attractive features will affect my input keyword and bring bad experience.
I saw some other ROM provides a enable/disable swtich for this....
3. Some other attractive Samsung device related features are not ported....is possbile to port them in this ROM, such as Swipe in call log(call or message), and Motion(all motion is not supported)

Samsung apps can't be ported,as they require special Samsung framework,You can port only a few apps,like Note or Calculator.Swipe to call and Motion therefore will never be supported.

Thanks for your explanation.
Personally I like the UI of PA 3.99(Android 4.3) and some apps, esp the new Gmail interface.
But it will loss any device specific features .

Yes....you can use a custom stock ROM,like Biftor ROM it can be customized in many ways.
If you want to report bugs, do that in the specific thread, so the developer can work on it. But first make sure if the problems are already know, or read the bug list. There's no need for this kind of thread
Hi,
I'm curious what features all of you use in ROMs or what optimisations you would like to see (CAF, a custom toolchain, etc...). This just crossed through my head while I was working on MR and a project that I will release soon. Do you guys use Xposed, do you use a custom launcher, what features do you use in other ROMs, do you use a specific DPI that you feel is more optimal, do you like custom branding or do you like the stock (if the former, feel free to make some. I'm not good with that stuff), what should I name it (I was thinking something Star Wars related), is there a custom kernel you'd like to see, do you use a custom HAL, do you use the stock dialer and messenger, etc...
This will be a long term project with no release date that will be concrete. Hopefully you guys will provide me with feedback. It will be specifically for the X as I have no plans of switching devices for a long time.
Here's another thing too. I'm doing this to teach myself. I think I brought it up once before, but I will make stupid mistakes and I hope a few of you can help me with it. I really do appreciate it. The main goal is for me to familarize myself with the device tree and with Git while providing you guys with a solid ROM
Thanks guys,
RJ

Hey,
for me are the importants things:
-layers or cm Theme
-customizable status bar
-switch back and recent
-make status bar invisible (fullscreen/immersive mode)
I use stock dialer/messenger and so on, snapdragon camera and also xposed for some tweaking. I use a custom kernel if my rom is not fast enough for me and the custom HAL with 4k recording too.
I hope this helped you,
regards from the "bad-english-speaker"
Good post, (p.s i hate star wars themed roms) pls no
auto brightness button on pull down bar
some apps like sony apps or something (so it's different to all the rest)
Well, stability and battery life conquers all. So to be precise , I like oos with dark theme and yeah custom kernel . I wish I could use Sultan's fix for camera but with that I can't use manual mode. Most of the features of cm can be added through gravitybox . Nova launcher is quite good and smooth, so I would suggest not to put much effort on launcher customization.
I see that you have taken a lot of interest in Kernel optimization and tweaking, so may be that's where you should start. Wish you luck for your projects.
Interesting thread, personally, as long as the rim has these, I'm happy :
Buttons configuration (especially hardware ones) with double and long press actions.
Layers (or cmte, but I've read layers are lighter?) in order to have a nice dark ui.
Ram bar and close button on récents.
There are so many other things that can be useful like use volume rocker to answer call, flip phone to mute call, switch to 2g when connected to Wi-Fi, enable max brightness (with custom kernel) for few minutes when in sunlight, ambient display but not during night (I hate my phone to light up in the night if I try to reach a water bottle or a kleenex lol) or gestures like swipe up on screen of to turn on and unlock the phone.
But most of these things are possible using Tasker.
But if you ask me, there are so many different (and not so different) roms out there, that I think to get glory, a new one would maybe need some awesome exclusive apps like SMS, camera, or maybe just good optimizations.
The less features in a ROM - the more stable it is. That's why I prefer Stock or CM Stock ROMs. But, anyway, the most useful features in my opinion is:
1. Playback Control (Prev/Next track with Volume buttons) - any ROM without it is almost unusable for me. Taking the phone out of the pocket each time you want to skip a track is just unbearable.
2. Double-tap to sleep - if dt2w is present, than this is a must-have feature. Peaking at the phone without even touching the power button is quite useful sometimes.
3. Viper4Android - Yes, I understand that this is a completely opt-in feature but I found myself installing it every time on every phone. The sound is just not right without it anymore.
4. STOCK Dark Theme - for some reason, every other "dark" theme developer out there thinks that theming Phone, Google Play, Messenger and other apps is cool. No, its not and its usually a weak point of any theme, because when the app gets updated everything goes to hell. I will make my own dark theme someday in a spare time. Probably based on OOS theme, because this one was actually cool. At least Android N will deliver it built-in.
Would love to see EAP-SIM authentication for WiFi in a ROM. I've tried a few and some seem to support it but I always get an "authentication error" when I try to connect. (Living in Singapore and trying to connect to SingTel WiFi, if that's any help!) So yeah, EAP-SIM support would be awesome to see in a ROM. Thanks!
And all the best for AOKParadox!

See my AOKParadox thread. I will implement the stock dark theme at least until one based off of OOS becomes available.
All I want to see in a ROM is its ease of operation and to easily see the important details.
1. Status Bar - Accurate Network Speed Indicator, Dual Clock (timezone), Date (with day of the week) & Gestures such as double tap, slide and quickpulldown
2. Hardkeys & Tristate Keys - Action Assignment (screen off, screenshot, power menu, kill all apps, last app, etc.), Single Tap, Double Tap & Long Press
3. Lockscreen - Disable Power Menu
4. When Screen is Off - Double tap to wake & Music Controls gestures
5. Others - One-handed Keyboard Operation (i'm a lefty), Ram Usage Status in recent apps

I would agree with this, along with Layers support and multi-window functionality from Android N previews since we have the ram for it.

Hey all,
Here's some of the things that i wish comes to custom developing roms from miui -
1.Full screen gestures - honestly, i didn't thing i would get hooked to this after using it just for 3days (root limit!) and now i miss it more everyday (i always first swipe right to left only to realize i have to reach down to back button.)
Used & tried all sorts of apps like T- swipe gestures & Xda's own -Navigation gesture app, none of them can satisfy that animation & control.
2. Both wifi & hotspot on simultaneously
Seriously, this is one of the first things that shocked me, coming from a Yu Yureka, this thing literally surprised me, imagine having a repeater/receiver/broadcast at the same time(now i know it's not a big deal for some of u, but in some areas where there is a weak network and u need that wifi speed on both ur laptop & mobile, this thing is a blessing.)
3.otp copy right on notification
Small thing, but crucial for fast work
4.lock screen's quick animation
Ok this is one those things that miui did in order to look fast in unlocking (which it is!) but on casual custom ROM, all default animations make it look slow, & changing speed of such from develpment causes other animations (such as music visualisation!) to seem like they are lagging or catching up.
5.sim card minute control
dual sim exists for one good one ok ( or one personal & business) and some one doesn't have any network & simply becomes a dead weight for the battery (checking for network every 5secs!) this thing also makes what we as a control freaks more aligned to our quest to total control of phone? (atleast last is true for me, it annoys the hell out for me.)
So, u guys must be thinking, why not switch to debloated miui & use other developments ?
First because there is no 9.0 pie in it( new phones needs latest and greatest for me!)
Second, i hate miui UI and after been using stock-ish rom for past five years(in yureka!) u can't blame me for those clean animations & material design.
These are some of the things i hope i share is common with u all, as if this agrees with u, just show it to ur near & dearest developers & hope they agree too.?
I'm Tanmay Dwivedi, and i'm happy to be a part of the poco f1's family!
P.S add more features & things which u think should be in custom roms!
IR face unlock is all that's stopped me flashing a custom ROM. I'm hooked

Fingers crossed
The tablet received a major update the day before yesterday. It was 4.0 GB in size, bumped Android version from 11 to 12. Otherwise there were almost no good changes.
Changes I noticed:
Android Version 11 > 12
like on the phones no dark mode settings for individual apps
Material You support (but also like on phones no settings)
Security patch to October 2022
Launcher:
appicons change their positions during the update
grid is no longer adjustable & changes automatically (!) after display rotation (4x6, 6x4), therefore the icons also move
there is a large margin to the left and to the right, both orientations
many app names must be abbreviated with "..."
the new widgets are finally here, BUT this restricts all other widgets in size & position (There may be gaps that are large enough but can only be filled with apps)
Notifications and Control Center:
background Blur for notifications and quick settings: "simple-blur" > "real-glass-blur"
the notifications are displayed in a smaller space in landscape (like phone in portrait)
thus also more abbreviations than before
the control center has been updated and now looks more like (a fake of) iOS
One thing is striking: some things that were previously adapted to the display size are now more optimized for phones. This can be seen from the fact that, for example, the notifications are only in the middle of the screen and look more like a "portrait on landscape". As a result, the content no longer fits in completely and is abbreviated to "..." for most notifications. Something similar can also be observed in the launcher: The icons always have a large distance to the edge, they are so close together that the app names have to be abbreviated with "...".
Would it be possible that the base of the ROM was changed to that of the phones? I don't know how to check that, but I think in this case it would be possible to release the xiaomi.eu ROM for the tablet.
So don't update yet right? My Pro wifi version still stuck on 13.0.10.
I would ditch MIUI altogether if you're on the Elish (WiFi only) model.
I'm using Arrow OS (A12) and this is just 100x more smooth than the stock MIUI ROMs.
It BAFFLES me that this is the case.... team that makes the device should be able to optimise it as much as possible, yet some random built ROM from source is far superior. Sheer incompetence....
There's a Telegram group if anyone is interested.

I would say it's a matter of getting used to it. After a few weeks I no longer noticed the disadvantages. On the contrary, I'm happy about (the reintroduced) real glass blur and Material You support (especially Gboard).
The fact that the app icons in the launcher always switch between 6x4 and 4x6 (screenshot attached) is also the case with the new 12.5 tablet. If you want a pen/keyboard and up-to-date security patches, there is no way around it.
Unfortunately, I discovered something else (Does not have to be related to the update): if you leave Firefox, just to answer a message, for example, everything is reloaded. Means when I read an article I end up at the beginning, when I pause at a film I'm back at the beginning, if I want to add a photo to this post I need 5+ tries because the page will refresh in the time of choosing... Unfortunately, adding a lock to the app in the app overview does not change anything.

Hi friend,
I'm just wondering if you're able to use desktop mode or anything similar with Arrow OS. A big feature I'm looking to use with the wifi tablet is desktop mode (connect keyboard and mouse)

Regular tablet mode, but I would expect that means your hardware should work as you expect. End of the day, you could easily flash back to stock.
