[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ktmdave7:
IMPORTANT Info

No need to post Pics. It's STOCK with few mods, and much removed.

I Have been using this ROM for the last 2 months on 4 SGS3's (updated few apps and few changes since I started it)

My Family and I have run many apps, tested many tools, it's a real stable BASE ROM. We Don't get unexpected FC's.

Excellent Battery Life ...Less running apps in background, Inverted Apps have Black Backgrounds (unlike White) to save Battery.

Tips I've learned...always make sure you have Exited out of running apps or logged out (clicking to another app, practically never closes it)

-Example, if you log into Facebook Log out each time, or you'll go to bed and wake up with low battery, that app will give you uptodate notifications throughout the night.

I have added MODS, that have been tested to work (I added links to where I got them & gave credit to Author)

-Some MODS, I followed OP's Instructions after De-Compiling - Editing - Re-Compiling .apk file.

Removed Stuff (ROM is lacking a Music Player & Video Player)

*** 3 Font .apk's

*** 9 Wallpaper .apk's

*** 20 widgets .apk's

TIP: File Manager - "Restore" - "Data Only" in future with TB

1) Run "File Manager" - Settings - at very bottom, check box's "Root Explorer" + "Mount System Folders"

2) Create Bookmarks to System Apps (/system/app), User Apps (/data/app), ! Ext SDCard (/storage/extSdCard), Internal SDCard (/storage/sdcard0)

3) Change any other settings to your liking. (go to Settings - Application manager - All - File Manager - Clear cache (to save space))

4) Run "Titanium Backup" - "Backup/Restore" - choose "File Manager 1.15.0" - "Backup !"

5) Next time, you choose "Restore" - "Data Only"

6) Enjoy.

*** This Saves lots of time (you can use same Data Only on Future Versions)

*** Follow this example on other Apps - Customize settings - (Clear Cache) - Backup "App+Data" (later Restore it)

Tip: What I install after fresh Install (with Titanium Backup App+Data)

File Manager 1.15.0 (adds settings, Bookmarks to System-apps, User-apps, etc) (Data only)

Facebook 2.1 (adds username, settings)

Netflix 2.1.1.751 (adds username + password + 1st prompt removed)
