So... First of all, I'm not asking for the best ROM.
At the moment, I'm using ArchiDroid v2.5.2 on my i9300, and it's fast, but... Random reboots, and the camera quality it's not the same as in the 4.3 ROM's.
What I want is a ROM with no random reboots, with the best camera quality and of course, as fast as AOSP or even faster
So... Which ROMs (and kernel) do you guys recommend?
I'm tired of switching between 4.4.x ROMs, all of them have bugs. The Note2 ports are laggy (even though everybody is saying that these ROMs are smooth as butter) and AOSP have the problems that I've mentioned before.
Help me, please

If I were to recommend you I would say ArchiDroid or NeatRom

Yes, I know that. But there are SO many ROMs and I've tried lots of them, and none of them are "perfect".
ArchiDroid or NeatROM? JellyBean versions? I've tried both, but the KK version.

First I will flash ArchiDroid V1.7.18 and if I don't like it, I'll flash this one. Thanks!
Stock debloated
I would use the stock Android 4.3, root it and than remove all the Bloatware from Samsung, install Googy Max2 and you got a pretty fast phone
Abort the Samsung laggy and almost useless world, choose AOSP roms.
I can propose you the only AOSP rom tried: CyanogenMod 11.
Download the latest M release (more stable than nightlies).
Note that there are some minor bugs, a 4.4 "perfect" system for S3 actually doesn't exist.
Then... the better kernel is BOEFFLA, useless to say [emoji6]
Download the related app (the latest BOEFFLA Config-v2 apk), choose zzmove or pegasusqplus as governor, while as scheduler choose sio.
To boost your phone, have fun with all the kernel parameters, CyanogenMod is considered the better rom, all other AOSP roms are based on CM source code, useless to change os.

A wildly sweeping and inaccurate statement if ever there was one.
There are some exceptional stock based ROMS out there, with very good performance, good battery life and stock features that you don't get in AOSP which many people like to have (also from what i've seen, the stock Camera app gives better pictures too)

I tried Android Revolution HD: at first was moving better than stock rom, but when I began to use hardly my device... too many lags and terrible slowdowns.
Caused mainly by the unremovable TouchWiz.
Using another launcher, the heavy TouchWiz works ever, for different reasons than the simple use of launcher.
You can remove all the bloatware, make lots of optimizations... but TouchWiz will "eat" your RAM (only 1 GB on I9300 and lots of its variants) and never you'll be able to quietly use so many apps as in AOSP roms.
On CyanogenMod, Trebuchet can be completely replaced by other launchers, unthinkable thing on a Samsung rom.

You tried one other stock based ROM and made your conclusion from that alone?
Each to their own, but I've used enough versions of CM on enough devices over the years to know the pros and cons, and personally on the S3 I can get a most satisfactory level of performance and battery life from a stock derived ROM whilst not losing any of the additional functions.

Totally agree with the first thing, then you told a bull****, you based your "fictitious reason" on a my partial citation at your leisure.
To prevent misconceptions and "abuse" of what I said in the topic, @hundred_miles_high forget to explain that according to me, the stock roms "compatibility" is limited only to Samsung devices.
With BubbleUPnP and similar (you should know them), stock roms become completely useless... or you need the 2-way call recording? [emoji6]
OP dislikes (as everyone) forced reboots, and need a good camera quality. If the suggested rom is poorer in any other term respect to AOSP systems, it doesn't matter.
Is this your reasoning?
With CyanogenMod 11, the terrible 10.2 camera experience was aborted.
Stability is guaranteed, also if the releases are snapshots, more than 6 months of developing.

Why would a Samsung ROM be compatible with anything other than a Samsung phone? This is after all the SAMSUNG S3 forum isn't it, thought it would be pretty obvious to anyone with half a brain the context it was used in.
I don't understand your ramblings about BubbleUPNP but Bubble and Sempervid links work fine on my stock derived ROM - I use them regularly with youtube/tubemate , streaming web content and media on my other devices to play direct to my TV (or xbox or nexus 7 for that matter) through my S3.
Ran out of interest with rest of your post due to your rudeness, but maybe you should check the CM11 M9 thread in regard to complaints of poor sound quality in the camera app...........

Yes, I was a bit hard in my answer, because you hurted me with your presumption and falsity to report properly my citation.
"This is after all the Samsung S3 forum"
With this stupid aforism you have damned lots of users who run a different rom.
I propose you to browse with brain (I dubt you know how use it, almost in this context) any S3 support forum, and see how many people use, speak and receive support about CyanogenMod, SlimKat, PacRom, etc.
And you are the first user who compare, even consider better a stock rom than AOSP... in terms of performance.
I hope you are joking.
"Ran out (...) Samsung devices"
You won't recognize the mistake (if not intentional) when you reported partially my famouscited my famous citation.
The truth is that you braved me since replying my first post: this is a topic where OP required "suggestions" (do you know this term?) from each user, not debates, nor topic wars.
Reread the topic, reflect about and get out, you told enough.
Are there currently oxygen os based roms available, or are developers working on these particular rom?
I see a lot of ported roms and cm based roms. The devices I used to have, would usually have a custom stock rom available. In which the stock rom would be more smooth and efficient. I personally like oos, I don't notice any bugs etc. But if it could be even better and efficient, it would be great.
Anyone knows if this is a work in progress?
++ I would appreciate this too, instead of spending time on something that takes time and energy why not optimize an already good stable product? I have very basic knowledge about how to make/cook/modify android system so I dont think im able to start a project by my self but i can give my time and phone for tests ^_^
p.s. something like arhd for htc devices, they do very good job indeed
Hydrogen fitd the bill for most. Might as well take it and modify it for yourself. I don't see an Oxygen based ROM as its already pretty minimal
I hope someone develop an oos based rom too.... with full Layers theme support...

Yes indeed something like arhd or sensation rom and other sort optimized stock rom. @RJDTWO It isn't just minimalising and debloating by app removal. It's more something like stock root and busybox, deodexed, gpu rendering, zip aligned, ext4, init.d permissions, ram speed and mounting tweaks etc.
Perhaps I will work on it, with a bit of study and spare time
Somebody or Anybody ???
I just bought an OPX second-hand from selling my titan . Is there any rom based on stock like the TurboROM for titan by @Vidhanth ??
mOOS is based on OOS just do a search for it in the forums

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.

There are a lots of benefits of using custom ROM over stock one. Currently I'm using Resurrection Remix 5.8.3 on my rn4. It's fully stable. You can try it yourself.

For best stability bro, go forward non other than MIUI
Clearly, MIUI are made only for Mi phones, designed to be well..perfectly stable. Now others might against this lol.
Custom roms are stable too, yet miui are far more than that.
Honestly, I see no benefits using stock MIUI against stock rom (or vice versa).
They're just practically the same, only differ in some minimal undistinguishable matters.
Moreover, it the end, just a personal cup of tea.

bro i have tried ressurection remix, lineage os. Only benefit i see in using custom rom is slightly better performance than miui(and that also you will realise after playing very heavy games otherwise it is ignorable), in terms of features manual customisation is more in custom rom(most in ressurection remix)but I still very much prefer customisation through themes in miui(because i am an anime fan and are tons of attractive anime themes in chinese miui theme store). in terms of stability and battery life i didn't nltice much change(maybe slightly better bettery life in custom rom). But overall i greatly prefer miui because it has much more user friendly feachures than custom rom(which you will soon realise after using custom rom) and because of its attractive themes(mostly anime based).

It's really nice do read someone opinion based on experience with custom ROMs. I bet that battery performance on custom ROM with custom kernel should be better but in that case...
I'm currenty running beta MIUI 9 and I really enjoy system because I migrated from iOS and if there is no point to move to custom ROM I am fine with it.

I am using custom roms from a long time ,so i very much used to the looks of customs roms . Then I got mido and miui was the rom installed in that ,i didn't liked it as i felt it lacks the amount of customization and features i needed . I didnt even like the interface of miui and didn't even find it user - friendly ( its user friendly for many users ) . So definitely it was not perfect to me . And updates were very late ( all oems have this issue regarding pushing new updates ) so i moved to custom roms .
If you say what are the benefit for custom rom
1) regular updates
2) tons of customization
3) better memory management ( it can be achieved on miui using custom kernel too )

By better management i mean the multi tasking part . Apps remains in memory . But miui is very aggressive when it comes to memory .
And why do you care for ram ? Free ram is a waste ram . You should care if you phone struggles with common apps . And you know right android is smart enough to handle this memory thing thank you

MIUI works really well, there's no denying that. I installed xiaomi eu rom a little while back and it worked really well, smooth fast and battery back seemed good. Despite all that, MIUI feels very claustrophobic when you try to navigate through the phone. Notifications are a mess. Everything seems to be crammed into that notification shade.
Needless to say, my sojourn did not last long.
Custom roms give you the freedom to choose from a variety of customisations to stock to barebones. They are light, fast and easy to work with. Only drawback is that sometimes things break in custom roms. You need to have the willingness to work around it when that happens. And there will be bugs, known and unknown both.
Battery life should not be a concern unless there is an unprecedentedly high drainage. People get unusually high SOT by limiting usage to WiFi only and staying on 2G. But in real world, with 2 Sims, 1 LTE and other 3G, 6-7 hrs SOT seems like a good bet.
Performance is at par for all. Stability may be here and there for some roms. The more customisations there are, more are the chances for things to break. You can use less customisation roms, my recommendation would be slim, mainstage os & aosp-caf. For customisations, you can pick any of the rest.
Personally I use from among the three, mainstage being the most favorite. My experience has been that idle drain is really low in slim and mainstage. Rest you will have to use them to pick your go-to roms.
And yes, camera is not the best feature of custom roms. :laugh:
Thank you all, great discussion yes miui 8 is pretty cool in its own way, but i think i will explore more stock like android experience and then miui 9

I think I should just add this point (whether it is a small or big point depends on your own perspective on your own privacy). The point is that one should be very careful about ROMs with embedded "dial home" features. Call me paranoid if you want, but, for me, this means that, for as long as there are good custom AOSP/LOS/CAF ROMs, MIUI is a non-starter.
For further information, read the "Skinny" threads on the Redmi Note 2 forums.
These devices are very competitively priced, and so are great buys - but the very first action should be to change the ROM from MIUI.
Miss those days when I was on the HTC Desire and @LeeDroid customized sense so much that it was perfect and very nice for those days.
I miss a good miui rom with stock notification icons and a working Google smartlock.
There are so much roms for mido but most of the roms is all of the same in performance and design.
We got now substratum but that is just layers not a redesign of some system apps. Like I mentioned before.
Why are there no more custom miui roms?
Is it not possible for developers to enable Google smart lock? Or change the statusbar stock notifications icons time right side?
What is the hold up here?
Yea we got xiaomi EU and few mods but nothing that spectacular.
BTW this is no offense to all those devs workings on mido I just asked myself and this is my first xiaomi phone and on HTC, Samsung roms they are modding the **** out of the stock roms.
TBH at the end of the day you will go and use stock ROM so am now out of flashing custom ROM it's now boring stuff! I rather prefer modified stock ROM like miglobe.com xiaomi.eu multirom.me and what ever and I would love to try paranoid ROM once it becomes official cause official has more features. And most important it has a OFFICIAL TAG which do matter. And taking about custom ROM all are same with a slight or little change in name and features every second nerd or geek wants to be a developer. Overall I can say that it depends upon your requirements to go or not to go. Personally if you hate miui I Mean the UI (I hate it too) than you should go with custom Rom and if you want something new and more scope of customisation. Else if you don't give a **** all you want is a phone for face book Twitter and Instagram and WhatsApp and pornhub.com then stock is for u
I have been using various custom roms on my phones for atleast 5 years. One the common hate items for custom ROM is the inferior battery backup when compared to stock ROM. My recent experience is on Asus Zenfone 2 Laser.

+1 from me
I have seen some of the 600 series processor phones with performance in custom roms better than the stock rom.
What's going on with POCO?
I can't directly ask a developer because there is always someone against me saying ' it's his free time hobby that he is giving us time, you should not ask any question regarding his work '. Ok that's fine! But performance issue only with POCO, I don't get it.........
I hate MIUI because of it's User experience, so I search for ROMs with stock experience but I didn't find any , forget about getting better than MIUI but same as Miui's performance. It's no more snapdragon 845 phone anymore with custom roms............. Go compare with other Manufacturers..
Yeah, I kind of see what you mean... Some custom ROMs have pretty bad performance compared with stock for whatever reason. I've noticed that the only ROM faster than MIUI on Poco is OxygenOS. It's been my daily driver for a while now. Nitrogen is also quite good as far as I remember... I try to stay away from custom ROMs because of the unsatisfying performance. I only switch between MIUI and OOS now.

i dont get it, where is it faster? what kind of performance? im using aosip, its much smoother than miui and is totaly fast, no complains at all. i also tried oos, miui eu, mi room, linage, pe, havoc, crdroid, nos and few more others, none had "bad performance". can you tell me what exactly do you mean? i experinced laggs and stuttering only on miui

Which rom do you find fastest? I do not want to try each and every rom

laugh as much as you want, i know what i see. i was using miui for months, now since february on aosip, just love it. miui eu still as primary on multirom, aosip, oos, los, pe and nos as secondary. but most time using aosip, also the only one secured with fingerprint and code.

aosip. though the differences are minimal. use multirom to try them all, its quite simple

I have seen some of the 600 series processor phones with performance in custom roms better than the stock rom.
What's going on with POCO?
I can't directly ask a developer because there is always someone against me saying ' it's his free time hobby that he is giving us time, you should not ask any question regarding his work '. Ok that's fine! But performance issue only with POCO, I don't get it.........
I hate MIUI because of it's User experience, so I search for ROMs with stock experience but I didn't find any , forget about getting better than MIUI but same as Miui's performance. It's no more snapdragon 845 phone anymore with custom roms............. Go compare with other Manufacturers..

Crdroid is better than MIUI imo. Especially in the latest updates.
I'm using some magisk modules for increasing smoothness, but all in all its performance is over the top out of the box.
P.S. Hold in mind that the phones you're mentioning are probably older than the Poco.
As time goes by, devs fix bugs and embed new things even from other devices to make the phone run better. So time works in favor of the custom ROMs.

The good thing of MIUI is performance (although as i said, crdroid performs even better imo).
Smoothness is non-existent. The first month i was using MIUI i had started wandering why i bought the Poco, since my 3 year old zuk z2 felt smoother.
The lags and the stuttering are everywhere except the menus.
I'm using LineageOS and I don't notice a difference in performance in day-to-day use. Perhaps in gaming MIUI might be better, but you kinda expect that due to optimization.
Maybe because of the kernel?? Im also a fan of miui because of the custom.kernel that works great on it...
hi everyone, i am still using MIUI global rom. current version 10.3.4.
i do have interest to unlock my phone and switch to other rom. but two things in my concern, the native miui camera app and esim.
in asia, we do have one app that will use the built in esim feature , am i still getting this benefit from custom rom too?

Well regarding the native Miui camera, you can install the port on your custom rom but few features wont work such as 120fps and 240fps slow mo and few more. But all basic features will work such as taking a photo or recording video.
Sadly, No idea about esim though.

I know exactly what you are talking about. Well the only reason why one can feel custom roms to be less snappy than MIUI is because of the optimizations that MIUI has for POCO F1 for it's touch response. You must be knowing about touch response issue of Poco F1 and Xiamoi has done lot's of optimization not only in it's vendor files but also in the MIUI for Poco itself to rectify the issue as much as possible. And this is something AOSP roms or any other roms lack because mostly AOSP roms are universal made and minor tweaks are done to make it work with a certain device so level of per device tweak is pretty less.
Now if you directly compare the performance of a custom rom (I am using Pixel Experience) with MIUI, both open apps at almost the same time and both are fluid. I don't care about the benchmarks because that really doesn't define anything related to personal experience.
So despite knowing this factor, I went for custom rom because I felt like Poco F1 does not deserve that crappy and cheap MIUI experience which is on offer. And Pixel Experience has been a great rom till date.
I think you should give a try to custom roms such as Oxygen OS or any good AOSP based rom such as Pixel Experience (my recommendation) or Nitrogen OS. Also Lineage OS is very good but its too much basic for me.
I just cant agree with this topic, I can feel that every custom rom developed here was amazing. I noticed the most biggest improvement for custom rom was it feel so snappy compared to stock rom. And i managed to squeeze more battery life than stock rom. But one thing stock rom for sure to win was, its picture taken using its stock camera app. I know we can use google camera, but when using aosp camera it the quality was too bad, so much difference from stock miui camera.
What about .eu miui stable releases? They have rectified most of the annoyances of miui global. Anyone tried it?
If someone from asia (india) uses .eu miui rom, will everything work properly without any region related issues?

Maybe stop flashing random Magisk modules and other crap which interferes with the system.
I've never had any issues with MIUI, it was always smooth and performing very well out of the box.

I have to assume that you cannot read English very well.
I mentioned that i use magisk modules that IMPROVE my experience with my CURRENT ROM.
I am getting better performance and better SOT than with MIUI.
To clarify things, I was using MIUI with locked bootloader and without any modifications.

The improvements are slightly noticable, but it's not just a placebo (at least on crdroid).
+They don't affect the battery negatively.
