best rom? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

The latest stock firmware and root it. Best bet.

[Q] AOSP vs Touchwiz

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

Best rom & kernel

I need the best combo of rom and kernel ! recently got back into the android game after having an s3 and then switching to a 6s plus now I'm back, with the oneplus two
I need help on choosing the rom and kernel, would prefer for the rom to be stable and the kernel to give me great battery life
right now I'm on aospa 6.0.1 it's alright
I was so excited to get back into roms and android that I didn't even last 3 hours on oxygenOS
OOS3 is actually pretty decent. Especially if you get a ROM that is a modified version of OOS like Oxydium. Exodus is also another good choice for speed, battery, and reliability. So far though, in my experience, it's pretty hard to go wrong with any of the ROMs available for the OP2 though. CM based ROMs have seemed to not get quite as good battery as OOS based or Exodus for me, but they have more features of course. Good luck on your search!
Official cm13 with boeffla kernel is my default setup. But using aospa and resurrection remix (benschold kernel) once in a while )
Waiting to see more features in aospa

I think the best rom at the moment is Oxydium
Good battery, Android N-designed, great performance and no heating

The bad part of oxydium, is not upgraded to the ota release. Happy user of cm13 unofficial, as daily.

The battery life is good, better than cm13, 4-5h sot
Now i'm using PA and it's more smooth than oxydium but camera is not as good as oxydium.
So far mm ROMs are still buggy and things are getting a lot better but the best ROM at least for me was VisionX but its a lollipop ROM
For me RR is still best in battery life

Latest
6h / 7h is achievable
Mostly i have 2 days of standby with 4,5 / 5h sot
Last couple of days I'm thinking about switching from OOS3 based back to CM13 or AOSP or PA. So I'm going through threads and I'm kinda shocked to see how most of them are now plagued by bugs which seem to have nothing to do with our devs, but it seems like they are getting that from sources, CyanogenMod mostly. Also, I don't remember any problems from couple of weeks (months?) ago! Like no notifications (dead silent phone), alert slider not working, echo in conversations, problems with camera, heavy on battery... before I had excellent battery life, notification and slider worked better than in OOS3, ROM was better with each version... any thoughts on that?
hi,
AOKP + Boeffla Kernel at the BEST! :good:
All ROMs and every kernel is best:good:

Can easily confirm, Resurrection Remix has given me much better battery life than OOS3 with my usage. Constant 5h SOT on LTE, 6+ on WiFi
CM13 Unofficial by Seraph08 + Boeffla Kernel works pretty well for me. I get a Standby time of almost 30 hours and SOT of over 4 hours. I used to barely manage 3 hours SOT earlier with OOS3.

I have been wondering the exact same thing.. I flashed PA June and it's been o.k. but has some issue with speaker / mic that weren't present in other MM rom's I've tried..
I went to Exodus. Feels great, works great, but with Trebuchet launcher as AOSP is very limited. I could recommend it easily

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

[Noob Question] Stable rom for Snapdragon?

Hi, the current rom that i'm using has suddenly turned buggy, even though i was using the current rom for 6 months already.
I would like to know what is the most stable rom that wont give me any problems? I dont require many bells and whistles just as long as it has a long battery life and good performance.
Thank you!!
You might should post what rom you're using ? I adapt to latest RR after a few days since a few months. It's rock stable ... Never had a reboot etc. battery life can't be compared that good.
Aosip + radon kernel= performance + customizations + battery life

Hi! Im using CM13 by Santhosh M. It was working well but it started to turn buggy, etc sometimes my stock lockscreen would not show up. :/
You're using RR 5.7 or 5.8?
Go with NitrogenOS, AOSP Extended, Bliss ROM. They have great battery life on stock kernel specially bliss ROM.

which better custom rom (miui or google roms) for redmi note 4 (snapdragon)

You cannot have the best bettery life and best speed in one ROM. It's against the laws of physics

ok bro .. which better in speed ?
and which better in battery life ?
Better go for something based on chemistry instead of physics
So try new GSI with January patch and pair it with Franco
Please give the link
xiaomi eu stable 10.2.2.0 or revolutionOS is good for you. both of battery and performance.

There is nothing like "Best","Better" everything has pros n cons.
Stock miui: No bugs, Balanced battery life and average performance, but old android version (7)
Custom Miui: Nearly no bugs, old android version (7),
Better memory management, no bloatware. Balanced battery life and average performance
GSI Miui: Balanced battery life and performance, new Android version (Oreo/pie). Bus: hospot. Probably other can be fixed with patch.
Custom oreo: no bugs, very limited ROM like: Los, MOKEE, Aicp provide regular updates. Most of others stopped development because there is no bugs any more and now working on Pie development.
Pie custom ROM: Latest android Version, Good battery life and performance, few Bugs here and there... Very active development so Bugs are fixing faster. Few banking apps will not work (look for some workaround)
Sorry for my bad english.
Use what you like... It depends on user...
LineageOS 15.1 Extended by Alexey71 simply the best.
Stable , customizable, great battery life. Also frequent update.
So much love from devs.
