Looking for a good ROM - Galaxy S III General

Hey guys, how are you?
I bought my SGS3 a few month ago. Since than I've been constantly looking for the best ROM.
I want a ROM with very good battery life, and I also want it to run smoothly.
Version 4.1.2 or above.
Also, if a kernel is necessary please tell me which kernel to use.
Thank you very much,
Orel/Xeiss.

What phone did you had before? I've currently a iPhone 4S and I'm looking to get a galaxy s3 because I'm sick of apple -.- was it easy getting used to? I also plan to install a custom rom as my old HTC was rooted

Unfortunately best ROM threads are banned on XDA and this will be locked shortly , the reason being a certain ROM might be good for you may not be good for someone else.
All as you will be told is to go and try many different one and see which Is best for you.
Good luck.

I've had a Mini Galaxy before (Not the one that was just released)
I personally prefer Android than iOS. It wasn't really hard to get used to, In 1-3 days you'll become a master
If someone would suggest me to get an iPhone 5 instead of my SGS3, he won't live anymore
Ho watch some YouTube videos and decide. Good luck!
BTW thabka for telling me Motogp1, I'll do it. Moderators, if you can please lock this thread without banning me if would be great, I'm new here and I really don't want to get a ban right off the bed Thanks.
Just another last question, what's the difference between the forums Android Development, and Original Android Development?

I would suggest starting with "Android Development" section for ROMs. Try them and find which suits you best.

Here you go!
Ultima rom v7.1 ( official 4.1.2)
Use it with persues kernel 29.1
Below are my results!
You're welcome.

Best advice anyone can give a newbie is to read first, had the op done so he would have seen these threads are prohibited and also a waste of time.

You can try Ultima ROM. It looks and feels good.
You may try siyah, perseus,boeffla, galaxsih kernel and suit yourself.
Also look for wanam's deodexed stock roms.

Took me about a week to get used to from iPhone was rooted trying custom roms very easy but figured I didn't need all that so now just on stock 4.1.2 and loving it battery life is great.

Rom similar to GTG Infused?

I have had a Samsung Infuse since June of this year and love the phone. I especially love it with a custom rom dev by GTG456x.
if anyone is familiar with his work, is there a custom rom out there for the note that is similar?
I just ordered my phone today and it will be here Wednesday.
Would love to have a custom rom ready to go
thank you
Best u try to cook one yourself if you're after a specific rom, if you had a look through the dev section you would have noticed probably 1 custom ROM. So id say don't get your hopes up...

the best rom?

I currently have darky's rom 3 installed and right now im kinda disappointed as the only real difference i've noticed is loss of battery life its dropped around 25% for no apparent reason. So i was wondering what kind of roms you guys have installed and what benefits are you getting from them? im thinking of taking away darkys and replacing it with new one, failing that i will just remove it altogether.
They all the best to each person who uses that Rom as every rom usage will be different from person to person.
the question is Which Rom is BEST FOR YOU??
try them all and choose whats best for you... we have different taste and preference... Enjoy your Journey
Depends on whether you still want Samsung features or just pure ics like cm9. I'm currently using slim ics debloated and 450mb of free ram.
I love checkrom since the galaxy s 2, it's awesome on the galaxy s 3. Very fluid with awesome battery life.

There's no "best ROM". If there where everybody would use it. It's all about taste. Same with that damn battery life whining. Try them all out and chose what fits your preferences.

Closed.
"Best" rom threads are not welcome on XDA, as there is no such thing and the thread inevitably lead to hot headed comments from people trying to "big up" their favorite dev.

ROM Choice? Xylon, Cyanogenmod, Paranoid??

Trying to pick a ROM. They all look good. Any that you recommend? Something without too many stability problems......
A ROM is your personal preference. Other peoples word should influence you. A ROM is like buying a house. It has to feel right for you. Go and test a few. You will find the ROM for you

Not sure what the rules here are, but on the Optimus 2x forum, where I come from, threads like this one are getting closed.
I think you should try some ROMs and stick with the one that works the best for you.
So, which one do you like?

Personally I'm using cm10 but that is totally irrelevant, go have a look at ROMs and see what works for you)

It's not irrelevant!
Which/best/most stable etc ROM threads get closed because it's completely subjective and what's best for one person isn't for others. My advice to everyone wondering is to just flash the ones that meet your needs or try them all, choice is a great thing and the devs provide plenty of it.

Suggestions for a ROM? Android 4.4.2

I was on SACS ROM but it wasn't compatible much with ktoonsez kernel.
I went to cyanogenmod and I'm getting 4 hours screen time with ktoonsez, however I like the features of touchwiz and I liked the ui a bit more (when using s5 themed ROMs, I despise old touchwiz),
So I'm looking for a smooth touchwiz ROM android 4.4.2 that is compatible with ktoonsez kernel
I'm currently on NAE modem

Recommendation threads always get shut down because people begin to say "so and so" ROM is the smoothest or the best. When the fact is there is no best ROM. Try out the other TW Roms that catch your attention and if you don't like it you can restore an older ROM you liked.

Ugh I hope it doesn't, I know there isn't a best ROM, just the fact is that I only found negalite, pacman, sac, and cyanogenmod, and I don't like all of them but I did like sacs, it just had a lot of bugs

XDA is a development site not a support site. As such members are expected to do the research, read through the development threads and decide what is BEST for them. The only results that would be posted here are what each member has found to be BEST for them by experimentation based on their phone/usage/setup/apps/signal strength. Please take the time to read through those development threads to learn all about the software you are about to drastically alter your very expensive device with.
Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for your cooperation.

Have a great day!

Please - do not compare ROMS on here. I know that you have good intentions but it's against the spirit of XDA. Every dev here is doing their best for free and for learning.
The thing is, that how good ROMS are is a subjective matter. I think you should open the original Android subforum and check the various ROMS. There you can also see if a ROM has bugs or if it's stable and draw your very own conclusion!
I hope this helps!

I know "stable" and "best" when it comes to ROM's are always subjective, but I think it's still fair to ask to get a quick general consensus.
To the OP, I'd go with Madhi or SlimKat personally.

Hello

There is no such thing as a "best/most stable/... ROM". Just head over to the dev sections, test a few and then decide for yourself
