i like cm9 and all but this phone seems more software rich than anything, most of it will most likely be tied to touchwiz. Just seems to me CM9 on this will just be like having CM9 on an S2 or Note. I will still probably flash for a go though

yes I know I guess asking is the hardware on this phone that much better than say the HTC One X that already has Cm9. Will Cm9 be better on the GS3 due to hardware? It seems to run just fine already on the S2 and Note

None of those two device names are the real device name we put Also, since we have some WiFi issues, I couldn't auth it to CM stats server yet

Will we have similar issues with getting bluetooth to work like on sgs2 due to lack of bluetooth drivers initially?

I'm a moderator at AllianceROM (formerly DarkyROM) and I just can't wait until the team develops a sammy ROM for the S3.
I think a CM ROM will not benefit the S3 as it will lose a lot of features which are situated with ****wiz (touchwiz). I think normal sammy ROM's will be more popular with the S3

No matter how much advertising you do for your rom maybe coming, the purists will always prefere cm to any touchwitz (that's how we call it in German...) rom. Bigups to xplodwild i hardly can wait... (oh, i didn't get my device yet...)

I think he is trying to say that S-voice, all of the gestures, stay awake, and all of the other features will not work with CM9, and only on stock ROMs, not sure how true that is.

wow
Certainly got my attention. I'm so used to cyanogenmod from my zte blade and now my galaxy s i9000 so I'm propably going to flash this to my upcoming i9300 as its available for public.

Hello, Looks like I shall be joining you all with a S3. =)

Well tm I get my Pebble Blue S3 and then I get to have fun modding and tweaking it. Sadly last night my G1 was stolen.. sigh.. my 4 year old phone. Least I managed to talk T-Mobile into getting me the S3 for my upgrade for 130$. Woot.
So I hear CM10 is actually the best way to go with S3 as of now? Nice and smooth?
Anyways wanted to say Hi and will look forward to posting with you all tm after ups bring me it. =)

I'm weird and actually like the stock from on this one... and I usually go straight to AOSP. Try it stock rooted for 24 hours and then go from there

Hi Welcome it is very good phone Waiting now for official JB
Newest leak of JB installed happy able to recive OTA

Welcome to the magic world of the Galaxy S3!
Well....it's a matter of choice really!
I used to use cm9 because cm10 has a memory bug that requires you to reboot the phone once in a while...
I switched back to stock though...
For me it's better than cm because my music sounds better on stock,the camera is much better and also it has great deals in samsung apps!
For example you can get Modern Combat 3,Asphalt 7,Shadowgun and Virtua tennis all for free!
Try using foxhound ics ron which has reached a final stage and is perfect!
I use that combined with siyah kernel and i am a very veryyy happy man!
Try it and you'll remember me...
I wouldn't recommend using jellybean leaks because they are buggy....never the less the official update will come very soon,i think you should wait a liltle bit!

Congratulations on your s3 but this is wrong section mate. From what I see you are getting a t mobile s3. Unless you want a paperweight with 5 inch screen you may want to stay away from this international forum.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2

Ill keep it in mind about the ICS one. Also Ive seen reports about the CM10 being ASOP. And that its smooth as butter without a memory problem. However if you are saying stock is nice. Idk, hard to say lol. Well wait, no I may not stay with stock. Anyone know if stock has cifs.ko support in its kernel? That to me is a vital part of any rom I get.. and with a device with HDMI output.. yea, network files for videos is good. (And not just DLNA)
Yea if I used my G1 for 4 years (Along with others in my sig for playing around with) then I can only imagine how well this device will serve me. Also I should be able to use Splashtop 2 or Splashtop HD shouldnt I since this has a high resolution?
Edit: Wait so this isnt the right forum for T-Mobiles S3? (Curse you google xda search for forum section)

Search the original android development for cifs.ko mate...
Now if you want hdmi like me stay away from aosp...
It's not supported and most likely never will be...

Latest leak is abs RC ,4.1.1 and reccomending totaly

YOU ARE JOT IN THE RIGHT SGS3 FORUM!
There is a T-Mobile forum for you. Please go there before ruin your phone.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app

CM10 is pure stock android with all the touchwiz stuff removed which means all of touchwiz features like smart stay,motion controls,the great camera app,pop up play etc are not there.If you think you will actually need these features,better stay with stock(or stock based custom ROMs,I'm sure you can find some nice ones in t-mobile S3 section).

Ok I found the T-Mobile forum.. but seems its being built. Dont even see an Android Development section yet? Man this is gonna be confusing in the morning when I try to work on this..

Actually its she, and yes, I do study before flashing. Im not new here people Which is why I came and said "Hello" =p Tho this forum separating thing is confusing.. not sure what rom is ideal now.. Seems the international section is better handled atm lol. (So dont worry, not gonna flash here)

Basic problem is despite a sticky lots of NA users flash I9300 firmware and end up with a bricked phone .You would be surprised how many actually have done that very trick .

I was just doing research on the ROM and bumped into this thread. To be quite honest I was just trying to help out. I didn't realize the thread was that old. My apologies for any inconveniences I have caused.

If you use Goo Manager, you can download PACman rom. So now that PACman rom is available for the sweet, beautiful, precious Nexus 4 will they add the Halo feature from Paranoid Android to it as well? Because I'm currently running PA and I'd like to try this but Ive realised I can't live without the Halo and Colour customisation.

Most likely because it's a ***** to root MDL or developers just not interested in making ROMs for this phone. Hey you can always make one
I love the 90s. Good times.

Sigh....
Maybe because the phone has only been out for 3 weeks?
Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk 2

If you want your phone to look custom you could always install a launcher like Apex or Go. Then while you're busy looking at the shiny stuff hopefully you won't notice the devs sneaking in the back door and will let them do their thing on their own time.

Don't worry same thing happened to the note 2. They will come!

Ya it didn't take long for MDL to get rooted. Wasn't much of a hicup.
As to why more rom aren't out yet... It's early and to be honest there not many Devs who jumped on to the S4 wagon. Just a hand full really. Its going to be a while before we see a lot of options.

Screenshot of rooted S4 with apex. Nice clean look. I'm waiting on Synergy myself.

I recommend giving Buzz Launcher a try. You might have to invest a little more time setting it up than most other launchers but its definitely by far allows for the most customization.

What to try after Knoxraid

Just curious what most people that were on Knoxraid are switching to. I have to say Knoxraid has been working great for me. I guess it won't be updated anymore so I'm looking to update my Rom

Most popular seem to be FireNote and dynamic kk. FireNote seems to be a bit more stable with great speed and battery life. I have been averaging about 1 day 8 hrs with 6-7 hrs of screen on time. Dynamic brings the latest and greatest kit kat as well as some customization. It has some bugs but the developer has been great about updating and fixing bugs very quickly!
FireNote Powered!

I'm running fire note it's flawless
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using xda app-developers app

Firenote is my choice. Best speed stability and long battery life on stock look. My everyday rom in Stock slot.
Alliance is for those who loves to customize. Endless customization possibility and great rom as well. It's in my slot 1.
If you like KK rom, dynamic is the best one out right now but there are a bunch of other great devs are pushing new one that are great as well.
You just have to try it out and see which one suits you best.

I'm on the same boat. On knoxraid KitKat but I don't know if any other roms have inverted (black) app and setting backgrounds. Simply a must have with oled.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using xda app-developers app

I've been using Dynamic Kat 1.3 after making the switch from Kn0xraid. So far I really like it. Might try out Fire Note as others are reporting good results.

Not quite the right thread for this request, but is there a mirror link still out there for the latest KnoxRaid add-ons?
Otherwise, I'm in the same boat. Itching to check out other ROMS. Anyone try the new S5 Experience ROM?
Looks promising.

I don't believe the Ron included gps fix but it works fine for most of the time. I would say I drive a lot using my phone as gps and 95% of the time works great. When I have error, I just turn off and on the GPS from quick setting and all works well again.

Thanks everyone for all the input. I think I'm going to give them all a try and see what I like the best. Main concern is battery life, speed and reliability.

I have tried the other KK roms and hate to say it but went back to Knoxraid.... Love the theme, and TW themes available in it too much.
Now to figure out how to build my own rom out of it and make it the way I want it.

I'm in the same boat as the OP and others here. But I went back to stock. Reason is because I got the new Gear 2 watch and saw many ROMs weren't working as well because they had features stripped from it such as Samsung Apps.
Any custom ROMs good with the Gear 2 watches?

Just Google Samsung app.apk download that and it will update to the latest, Gear will be fine after that with any ROM I believe.
