hey guys...

so tell which is best ics based custom rom for our galaxy 3 which is fast, stable and having less no of bugs among all custom ics basd roms ?

having max. free ram available, max free internal memory and does not crash on most of apps...

also suggest best custom kernels for it.. ???

---------- Post added at 12:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:30 PM ----------

.and 1 more question ...

Is Dere any way in which we can port sum features of ics in gingerbread or froyo.... like proxy support for every single wifi network in ics which allows every app thru go thru proxy ...if dis feature can be port in gingerbread or froyo custom rom ?????
[Galaxy 3 General] egonzalv:
Proxy can be use with "Auto Proxy". Serch on xda forums or market, I use it and works fine.
[Galaxy 3 General] __JOhnny:
I am using MPICS v2.0 its fast if you are using some launcher (ADW my suggestion) default launcher its kinda laggy.. i also used MIUI V4 very slow :rolleyes:
[Galaxy 3 General] mrdjibrilo:
So what rom is the best for daily usage, no bugs no nothing, can do everything it should (play games, working camera, software works as it should)?

I'm thinking XXJPU rooted and OC-ed (G3Mod)
[Galaxy 3 General] Halco:
U think good, but if u dont disable data (when not needed) with G3Mod on JPU, ur battery will not last more than a day, otherwise, everything is working fine :)

If u don't play games, i recommend blindly CM7 from Marcellusbe (Got more than 90h from my last cycle ^^ )
[Galaxy 3 General] vleutmans:
Nice topic....what is the best (custom) ROM.

I tried a lot (eclair,froyo,CM 7.2), and all have their issues. I notice :

a) slow phone, not snappy after restoring your apps

b) memory choking (lag), even with minfree and other custom tweaks applied

c) sometimes a kernel panic and spontaneous reboot

My findings are as follows:

All "custom" ROMs, with fugumod or g3mod kernel seem to "choke" on memory, and need minfree settings to keep the ROM going and then still with lag.

When you flash the custom ROM, at first it looks fast. After restoring your apps, it will looks different.

You will need the "autostarts" tool to speed up the ROM a bit, but still it's not good.

I suspected the "kernel" to be the cause of problems, so here's what I did :

1)Take stock JPU ROM with stock kernel (rooted)

2)strip the bloatware

2)only put some geeky build.prop tweaks

3)"no" minfree tweaks , so apps will get killed when memory <25 MB

4)leave CFQ i/o scheduler and conservative governor as it is by default

5) Use link2sd to fit my apps

What I noticed :

1)Stock browser not FC'ing when loading XDA page.

2)Sygic navigation not crashing anymore.

3)no memory "choking" even when 25 MB Ram free, Phone still responsive.

4)Battery doesn't drain, last for days..even with conservative governor.

5)better multitasking, due to more apps in memory.

I suspect that for example fugumod and g3mod (and other custom) kernels have some issues, maybe because of debugging purpose, I don't know. Maybe they all use the same approach when they were built, and have the same flaw ?

So my next approach will be (asap):

Try some custom roms, like purumod (JPS) and put back stock JPS kernel to see if memory choking is gone, and ROM is responsive.

Anyone has similar experiences on the custom stuff ? Man it drains your spare time, I have to say :-)

Don't worry I'm used to charging my phone every day, as a matter of fact it's plugged in right now :D I'm currently on CM7,and it's great and all that but it has it's known issues and I'm thinking of switching back to froyo for a fully functioning rom.

Michel would you mind telling me what you did with the build.prop and what did you use to kill the apps that were using too much memory? (link the app if it's an app, or link the thread if it's a tweak)

Thanks
[Galaxy 3 General] tomo_79:
Kyrillos Rom 10.3 rocks :)
[Galaxy 3 General] vleutmans:
Hi,

I didn't apply any tweak to kill apps that take too much memory, that's the thing.

The default minfree settings of android seems to work great with my current setup, which means that when memory gets below 25 MB, android will automatically free up RAM.

In a custom ROM this stock value of 25 MB seems impossible, and will choke your phone, but with stock rom and kernel it works fine.

Attached you find my build.prop , which is my only "tweak" I applied.

You can put the changes in your build.prop file if you want to try...it's safe.

Working on galaxy 3 for a friend and I want to know what rom is fast without bugs. And if support mobile Odin can restore stock firmware he something going wrong for Samsung guarantee.
[Galaxy 3 General] schnelle:
Kyrillos' ROM v9.6 JPU is fast and stable.

There are faster CM7 based roms, but they have bugs atm.
[Galaxy 3 General] bscraze:
Just use the computer Odin. Hercolubus rom or kyrillos rom. Both are great.

M12 9.1

MIUI

I need descent looks+Performance (wid no battery drain issue)

Wat shud i go 4 ??:cool:
[Galaxy 3 General] zhiYUAN94:
I think u shld try hercolubus rom. And ICS shld be more stable with lesser bugs.
[Galaxy 3 General] b2bt:
how come very few ppl have have flashed m12?

I tried it n it was good...imo battery backup is the best n i loved the UI

first i had indroid then i moved to kyrillos..then m12...now i will b trying hercolubus...

basically i think if u really really want very stable ROM then u should go for froyo(dunno which one is best) but if u r fine with a lil bugs go for GB whichever u like
[Galaxy 3 General] zhiYUAN94:
Froyo is stable? Okay..... But I believe GB ROMs are more stable
[Galaxy 3 General] sudersanmurthy:
I use M12 ROM V 9.1 which is perfect for me :D and V 9.2 is about to be released ,stable gingerbread rom for me :cyclops:
[Galaxy 3 General] _MadHead_:
Few days ago i flash kisadworx rom (cm7.2 based) - very good job... it's stabel and no more message "system process not responding"
[Galaxy 3 General] Anddy_:
Kyrillos' ROM is the best actualy.

Cynogenmod is good, but not 100%.
[Galaxy 3 General] Smonic:
Well if you think that you must be flashing unstable ROMS. Try purumod it is the best ever! Very very very very stable
[Galaxy 3 General] Smonic:
Purumod nice performance and i get over 4 days battery
[Galaxy 3 General] tadeas482:
ICS is my favourite even though there are some things that dont work, its still the newest firmware available on our phone.
[Galaxy 3 General] satyamsit:
Have flashed M12 yday and to my surprise it was a gr8 exp .. no frills as of now.. battery is good.. way smooth than other ROMs on 100-800 ondemand. just that it needs a update with adfree.. camera mod etc.. but did nt get any added problems as of now,... quite good.

[Galaxy 3 General] Coren0327:
I have tryed many roms for my G3 :

First I tested Kyrillos' ROM 9.X wich is based on Froyo (Android 2.2), it's fast, stable and there's some tweaks I liked.

Then I tryed the Kyrillos' ROM 10.X based on GingerBread/CM7 (Android 2.3) it's not fast and stable as Froyo, the porting of CM7 isn't yet very good but the ROM seemed to work fine but slower than Froyo.

I also tryed MPICS ROMs based on ICS/CM9 (Android 4.0) which works quite well too but even slower anyway.

Back from there I tryed Purumod, thought it was a CM7 mod but no, its a very well skinned and optimized Froyo, I'd love to keep it but I wanted to install games wich needed Android 2.3 at least. Such a shame it's a great ROM.

So I went to Kisadworx a CM7 based ROM, quite fast and running well, there's a glitch to fix (waiting for 7.1.7 to fix it) but still couldn't install the game I wanted to try, hope the patch will correct that :D

Here's the result, until CM7 or CM9 is fully ported and optimized for our low-end devices I don't recommend using any of those.

There's an other point that I need to talk about for any ROMS over 2.2 versions, they currently use an open source Video card driver "OpenFIMG"

it is also in dev state and miss loads of capabilities that current games/softwares needs resulting in lags and graphic glitches.

The truth is even if the CM10 (Android 4.1 Jelly Bean) gets fully ported by the awsome Marcellusbe our device needs more RAM (only 256Mb) and a fully working FIMG driver.

Unfortunatly we cannot upgrade the RAM amount, and swapping isn't a good idea as I head.

Currently I'm running the KISADWORX ROM 7.1.5 wich is quite well optimized and tweaked to be used everyday but there's a FC issue with the launcher that force the user to reboot due to a RAM overload I presume and alos the OpenFIMG not allowing to play some games correctly and fluently.

SO If I would recommand a ROM I'd suggest you : Purumod 3 or Kyrillos' ROM 9 or Kyrillos' ROM 10 or KISADWORX ROM

Cheers :angel:
[Galaxy 3 General] geneo85:
Hi,

I bought this phone for my mother. She needs a very fast and stable phone for everyday use (sometimes he takes pictures or video with camera...). Which ROM you recommend me for this kind of needs?
[Galaxy 3 General] MicroGeek:
I think stock ROM would do for your mum unless she plays loads of games and likes millions of extra features and overclocking. If she uses her phone for calls, text and pictures then just keep using the stock android 2.2 ROM. That would be best and problem free. If she feels that it is too slow using Purumod v3.0.

On another note, i recently decided to try lestatious ROM even though it is REALLY old. It's my new personal favourite ROM. It's very fast even though i'm using a Non-OC kernel (G3MOD Lite 1.7) and it's very stable. No problems with it so far, multitasking is great especially today when i had whatsapp opened, 3 tabs on the browser and also gmail. All open at the same time xD
[Galaxy 3 General] Shadowmaniac:
Guys i tried a lot of roms in past 1 year and the best and fastest that i found is Hercolubus Rom v 2.5 or 2.6 using it for past 2-3 months and i love it,messages open fast really fast no more waiting and phone book and other stuff that you need open fast but it isn't rom for games so if you want games try finding some good like kyrillos i wouldn't suggest ics because its lagging and you don't have camera
[Galaxy 3 General] schwarzerkreuz:
Kyrillos' ROM v9.6 JPU+[KERNEL] FuguMod Ultra OC+[Script] App2sd, fast and complete.
[Galaxy 3 General] Cuball:
I've alwasy been happy with the Kyrillos roms.

But I'm going to use my phone mainly for sports now, so gps tracking + music player are important. What would be the best ROM for this activity? I don't need BT/Camera functionalities...
[Galaxy 3 General] MicroGeek:
GPS should be very good on kyrillos 9.6 but i'm not sure. I think if you're not going to use your phone for a lot of hardcore multitasking then stock ROM should be good for you. The only way you can find out is to try both and if you do want to use kyrillos 9.6, use the non-oc version to save battery.
[Galaxy 3 General] klimac:
I used to have Kyrillos 9.5 rom, but yesterday CM10 build1 was released.. in my opinion, CM 10 is much better! even if it is beta...

Phone gets poweroff with low battery indicator

Hi all, I am facing a strange problem, my phone is switching off automatically indicating low battery. However when I plug in charger battery indicator gives battery more than 50% sometimes close to 75%. I've tried a lot of ROM's mostly based on great work by Marcellusbe CM7.2 Alpha 8.3. Following are the list of ROM's I've tried and faced the same issue

GB:

AOSP GINGERBREAD STYLE ROM

CyanogenMod 7.2.0-RC3

Kyrillos' ROM 10.5

Currently Using : Pranjal's ROM

KISADWORX ROM v7.2.1

ICS:

ICS AOSP/CM9 (Alpha)

AOKP/CM9

All ROM's are fast and good, fits my requirement. But this battery off issue is there in all for me.

But battery indicator while charging in power off mode is always always showing battery level higher than 50%.

Help me out here. I need battery backup that can at least work for 1 full day.

Help me. Something is definitely wrong.

P.S. Also tried this with new battery. So no battery issue.

Using Samsung Galaxy 3 - I5801
[Galaxy 3 General] vivekchamoli:
Looks like either your phone battery pins are loose , if so check @ service center ,If the same issue coming with new battery as well.

Else check the sdcard ( replace it with new one), it also causes issues @ times.
[Galaxy 3 General] lfpaulinp:
i am trying Kyrillos ROM, and is quite good so far, in comparison to the 2.1 that it had

i think im gonna try all the GB based
[Galaxy 3 General] tanmoyc:
GB is good and much stable rom after 2.1 and 2.2 but Consider the fact gaming is still not possible in Gb compared to 2.2 or 2.1 because of incomplete graphic driver .but in performance it is best
[Galaxy 3 General] volamaster:
I'm using KISADWORX ROM (Froyo) now, this is best Rom I ever used. :cool:
[Galaxy 3 General] mohdwaqar:
me also getting same issue....but not getting any solution
[Galaxy 3 General] czat:
I have been using purumod for a couple of days now, and would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a ROM with a good battery life. There is sufficient internal memory to install plenty of apps, and per-installed links2sd to move apps on SDCard. I actually downloaded some lightweight apps like appbrain, android weather, tuneIn radio, adaway etc. so still have a lot of internal memory to be used.

Launcher pro as base launcher works pretty smooth and all the per-installed apps are quite useful. Thanks to the developer of this ROM, and all the others who are working on Galaxy3. Having fun reading all the android stuff in here, compared to boring Samsung wave which I just don't use anymore because of a stupid OS called BADA.

My choice

I have been using kyorarom for 3 months now. I have to say that it is the best so far because my battery lasts almost 3 days.

I don't use it for playing games etc... In combination with g3mod, setcpu and data2sd it is flawless
[Galaxy 3 General] czat:
Looks like most of the time it's the kernel and configuration in ROM that causes the battery drain or some crazy apps installed later on, but after using purumod for some time now plus NightMode with chairfire3D, it seems battery is alright, no need to buy another one ;)

Will try new ROM today

Go in the AOKP thread and in second post under downloads you will find AOKP Patch 1,download that and flash via recovery(this is for 4.1 not 4.0.3). Camera is not working in 4.1. Did you try to wipe battery stats and run a few cycles ?

Becoz of battery i changed rom to aokp 4.1, and also flashed aokp with patch1....battery is better now....all my problem is camera....can anyone help me with this, bcoz in 4.0.3 camera works without preview.....is that possible in 4.1..????

1. In CM7 based roms, video camera doesn't work on stock camera but does it work on 3rd party cameras?

2. In CM9, camera preview doesn't work on stock camera, but does preview work on third party cameras? Does video recording work on 3rd party cameras?

3. In CM10, stock camera doesn't work but do 3rd party cameras work?

I love the Jedi Invation rom. Based on the stock so you get the wifi calling ( i'm on T-mobile usa). And he's working on multi-window right now. Works very well. I've used CM10.1 and aokp. But none have been as stable. Plus wifi calling is great to have.

Re: [Discussions] Best ROM for G3 - All other "Best Rom" threads will be purged.

For games I recommend you to use 2.2 (it's video driver is finished so you can play most games which are compatible with our phone because biggest problem is not android version but our not standart resolution (320x400)) I would also recommend you to install chainfire 3d and fugumod ultra kernel(for overclocking), but even with them don't expect that all games will work smooth like in s3 ;)
[Galaxy 3 General] rcconf:
Thx for suggestion :)

Have a new question now. Is it possible to connect 2 bluetooth headsets to the device, so in both there will be played same music?

The only solutions i found so far:

1. 3.5 jack splitter with 2 BT endpoints attached.

2. 3.5jack fm transmitter, and then just 2 fm-stereo headphones.

I wonder if there is some better solution?
