Hello folks,

if you need a working marshmellow take the one of p.a.n. everything works like a charm. It is CM13.0-20160115-UNOFFICIAL-i9305 !!

Now my S3 LTE is a "NEW" handy.

something that lost is the batterysaver (i mean the one of Ressurection Remix from rodman01) !

I need it to save batterydrain much more. thX iN aDvAnCe if it inplemented to CM13.0 or 13.1 in future !??

Sorry about my english, because i am german. ;)
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] olibe:
MasterBoy71,

wich rom is better at this moment. Rodman s or CM13?

Why you use CM 13?

I'm german.

Beste Grüße

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] Pe1ican0:
They are both based on the CyanogenMod cm13 sources anyway. Same source code for 9x% of the code

Biggest difference must be the RIL (radio interface layer) implementation along with other minor differences.

Both ROM work fine for me. I use plan's rom as my daily atm.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] rodman01:
Which of mine are you comparing?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] limjh16:
Don't compare ROMS. Also there is no best ROM, just which suits your needs.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] benkxda:
I'm kind of German, too (Bavarian). :laugh:

As [MENTION=7018227]limjh16[/MENTION] said, there is no "THE BEST" ROM for everyone. But if you like a highly customizable ROM, than I can suggest to try out rodman01's Resurrection Remix. I am very happy with this ROM, obviously because of its customization features, but beside this it's also very battery friendly and the animations are really smooth. RR is based on CM, but I would use CM only if there would not be another great working ROM.

Kudos to [MENTION=4613083]rodman01[/MENTION] for his bunch of i9305 ROMs and his durable support for the S3 LTE. Without him the ROM availability would be rare, keep that in mind.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] Oswald Boelcke:
I'm new. Looking for some advice.

Hello community. I'm glad that I've made it to here.

For about half a year I'm now owning a Samsung Galaxy S3 LTE (GT-I9305), and I'm pretty happy with this device.

It came with CM-10.1.3-i9305 but I've migrated to the CM11 nightlies (currently CM-11-20160410-NIGHTLY-i9305 ) just recently.

CM11 doesn't suit me at all as I've tremendous problems with the writing permissions of the internal memory.

Some additional and hopefully information:

- Build cm_i9305-userdebug 4.4.4 KTU84Q 0353b49858 test-keys

- TWRP 3.0.2

- SuperSU Free (CM) V2.65

- Baseband I9305XXUEMK1

- Kernel 3.0.64-CM-gfb6555f blinky@cyanogenmod #1 Sun Apr 10 11:14:52 PDT 2016

Main and intended usage of my phone (95%) consists of making phone calls and text messaging (including secure via Signal), some surfing in the internet and utilisation of some apps, which require internet connection and location (from my perspective preferably course location). Minimum use of GAPPS is intended; however, I know that a few of my preferred applications require the play services and framework.

I'm not at all gaming and not using any of the so-called "social" networks.

Maintaining privacy of my personal data is of utmost importance i.e. I want to be able to use AFWall+, Networklog and Xprivacy.

As I previously said I'm really unhappy with the current CM11 nightly.

I'd really appreciate if somebody is able to recommend a ROM that suits my requirements the best.

Thanks in advance for your support, and I'm looking forward to learning from you all.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] Sectorian:
I say it but nobody believe me.

Cm11 is buggy.

Use CM13 or ResurectionRemix both roms got they advantage.

Personaly i like the CM13.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] Oswald Boelcke:
Overview Pro's/Con's CM13 vs. RR

Sectorian, I appreciate your quick reply. Thx very much. :)

Is somewhere a comparison already available showing the differences in capabilities betwenn CM13 and ResuractionRemix and possibly their pro's and con's. I'm convinced this could easily enhance my decision making process.

I don't recommend marshmallow if you value signal strength a lot. For me (idk if it happens with anyone else) I have bad signals in areas where I previously had good signal. You should trtry some of the tw based or AOSP based kitkat ROM.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] Oswald Boelcke:
limjh16, thanks very much for the advice that I really appreciate. However, with my current experience with CM11 I don't intend to go for anything related to Android 4.4.4.

[MENTION=535343]all[/MENTION]: May it be advisable to go for a different baseband in conjunction with CM 13 or RR 5.6.7 due to limjh16's experiences?

Edit 28-04-16: Went to modem XXUFOA1-VD2-I9305XXUFNL1 a few days ago, and I'm quite happy.

I flashed Resurrection Remix v5.6.7 yesterday, and I'm simply fascinated.

This ROM is awesome, unreal, ****ing amazing; I don't know how to express it better!:good:

Hi has anyone with Marshmallow is able to use GravityBox?? I really want CM Pie Control and hardware key configuration (long press back button to kill app). So far I use Resurrection Remix® M but unable to launch GravityBox. It always says "gravitybox system framework not responding". I know this not recommended with custom ROM but I wonder if any of them will work?

I also use [AGNi][STOCK] 19-04-2016 AGNi pureSTOCK I9305 (ULTRA SMOOTH) on the other phone of mind. But am still unable to get GB works. No idea why.

I have tried both LMT and Pie Control app but I think CM Pie Control is still lot more better. It has a lot of actions can be added (flash, kill app...etc).

Anyone use MM successfully with GB please let me know which, thanks!!
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] limjh16:
I think it says on gravitybox page, do not use with any heavily customisable rom". As a general rule do not use with CM based roms eg RR. Or stock bloated roms eg touchwiz.

As for long press back button for kill app I think there's option under " buttons" in settings
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] Oswald Boelcke:
I fully concur to your statement regarding GravityBox and custom ROMs. It's clearly stated in the GravityBox's OP, and I can't understand how people cry for help or support if they don't obey the OP.

Regarding the buttons (and I'm talking RR): For me, only the home and the menu button are customisable, not the back button; however, even for the other two no kill option is provided.

P.S. It feels somehow curious that the original question was raised in this thread but not in the Q&A part (http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s3/help-i9305/qa-samsung-galaxy-s3-lte-roms-kernels-t2999494/page2).

What is the most prefer stable Marshmallow rom today?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] Oswald Boelcke:
Just read through the OPs of all ROMs, and you're going to find the one you desire.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] Mumtaz77:
Now I'm using Bliss Pop some weeks ago. This is a great ROM, but one problem is the USB charging. If i use the radio in my car to charge the phone, its just slow down the discharge. So no up charging.

If I flash the agni kernel, to let me charging rates changeable, the phone is randomly freeze, or not wake up and screen is leave blank.

But this rom is the best for me, just this charging problems make me nervous.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] benkxda:
I don't know how much you know about electronics, so I start explaining it the easier way.

I still use the i9305 (not with Bliss ROM, but Resurrection Remix, also a CM based ROM) and stock kernel and I also can charge it via my car, which has built in USB ports. The main problem with the built in USB ports is, they deliver only the current, a computer USB port can deliver and as it's USB 2.0, I get 500 mA theoretically, but actually I have about 400-450 mA (measured with an USB current and voltage "multimeter").

If I charge my device via those built in USB ports, while its screen is on for navigation or so, my device is discharging like yours. It discharges even faster, when I would activate Bluetooth, WiFi or mobile data and high screen brightness... so I bought a 12 V car USB adapter which offers two USB outlets, one 1,2 A and a second 2,4 A USB port. Even if I use to charge with the smaller 1,2 A (actually the device drops it to 1,0 A), my device is charging. The other fast charging port negotiates 1,5 A with the smartphone, so definitely not charging twice as fast, but also not getting twice as hot as well.

Please check the incoming current of your phone while charging at the radio USB port with the well known app Ampere. It's not 100% accurate, but may show you the reason why your device is discharging. Test some sceneries, using the app with low and high screen brightness, with activated WiFi/mobile data/GPS etc. and with all those things shut off. If you try it with a 12 V car USB adapter with at least 1 A charging current, you definitely should get a charging state, even not fast though.

Please report back, so we can follow this issue, thanks.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] Oswald Boelcke:
I think [MENTION=4465234]benkxda[/MENTION] really covered the point and has provided the solution to your issue.

As I only use my GT-I9305 for phoning (with bluetooth headset) while driving, I don't charge the phone in the car. Please apologise that I didn't think far enough. I also placed my reply to you on the Q&A section of this thread, this morning. Please find it here.

Just a short remark in regard to the OP: [KERNEL][AGNi][CM] 18-05-2016 AGNi pureCM v5.10.3 I9305 (ULTRA SMOOTH) also contains AGNi v4.5.5, which works great on my device with RR 5.7.0.

Thanks for maintaining this!

I have a few edit suggestions for OP:

The first two sections are extremely outdated and should be deleted:

a) the Announcement section is from 2014... Maybe delete that stuff?

b) the Specials section starts with a link to "Major Custom ROM comparison database. Thanks to [MENTION=5294397]louisjms[/MENTION]. Visit his XDA discussion thread." - this database is from 2013 and long since deleted (users who follow this will only find broken links)
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] benkxda:
Hi [MENTION=4518321]wutzin[/MENTION]. Thank you, I'll keep this device index thread up to date even longer and I still use this device.

I don't want to lose the announcement section, even if I don't say a lot lately.

You're right about the "Specials" section and I deleted most of its content. If you have things like XDA internal threads/links, but also external links, which belong there, drop a note.

The Custom ROM comparison database was initiated by [MENTION=1201853]nimrodity[/MENTION] and was a fantastic idea imo. Unfortunately it's a mass of work which no one can handle obviously.

BTW: I did not get a notice from XDA of your post for whatever reason. Please mention me next time to ensure I'll get a notification, thanks.

Hi guys, I've a dummy s3 LTE. Now I'm using AMCHA rom but the device still occasionally shows several problems (app crash and so on). I think it's on sundown way...

Can you suggest me a "light" rom to attempt to revive my i9305? I don't need powerful features...
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] Oswald Boelcke:
Unless there are hardware issues a GT-I9305 can't be a dummy (yet). This device is still being fantastically supported by a lot of great devs and contributors.

Our two S3 LTE are running like fighter jets!:D

Please find the configuration of one of the two phones in my signature block. Both have the same ROM (RR v5.7.3 Sammy-version), same TWRP, same baseband, /cache and /data on F2FS, and GApps pico. Difference of the second: Stock RR (Sammy) nameless kernel and no Xposed.

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] benkxda:
Thanks a lot for this hint.

First I thought, it could be a potential bug in my searching software, but it wasn't. After several minutes trying to find the bug, I realized, the thread already exists in my index as "[27 Jan 2016] [STABLE] SlimLP 5.1.1 for S3 LTE GT-I9305". Therefore it was still listed in the Lollipop section. You may have seen the "Following threads are checked less frequently - reviewed on 14 Aug 2016" sign above this section. So when I review it next time, the thread would have been moved to the Marshmallow area anyway.

But I don't mind your hint, I prefer it, we get a faster corrected view on our available ROMs. I moved the thread to the Marshmallow area :).

If everyone would create a new thread for a new ROM version and closes the predecessor thread (otherwise the moderators go crazy as it's just too much), it would be much easier for me to find it (sooner) as it appears with a new thread ID which is not in my index.

However, thanks again :laugh:

In some of these Custom roms (AOSP) which i tried the video call in apps like viber, messenger etc not working in my S3 gt-i9305?

Any idea how to fix this?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] kbuss:
plz excuse the noob question, but how much is this list corresponds to the usability/stability of these roms...? seems to me that the index thread goes for the most up to date/developed roms. considering this is an old device, those newest roms maybe not the wisest choice for everyday, normal use.

it would be nice to have some recommendations up front, which were the tried and tested, most used android 5 and 6 roms for 9305 that just worked in the long run.

im not a beginner, after 20 some different roms, but the amount of information to go thru (and decide) is just crazy for someone who doesnt follow the forum regularly.

thx :)
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] benkxda:
This Device Index Thread (DIT) is sorted chronologically. Maybe 6.0.1 ROMs are the most stable - maybe, but I had a very good experience on 7.1.1.

I don't own this device anymore, but the last time, I was using Resurrection Remix (Android 7.1.1), which was a really awesome feeling on this old but still speedy device. And even GPS worked ;)

This is a very good ROM for me, maybe for you too, maybe not. It depends on your needs.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] kbuss:
thx very much Benk :P

dont like that rom at all, its very tweaky, "hackery", for dudes who think they are hackers or some ****, runinng around in baseball cap and sneakers

not stylish at all, even the boot anim makes me cringe. to much options, to much stuff for an old phone that it doesnt need.

those options to put pictures etc in the notification pulldown, configure different fonts, transparencies etc.... omg ... WHY???

unnecessary customisation options that just makes the UI look like **** and cluttered. yet when you need to find some important setting its a nightmare, or not there at all.

a good UI, good user experience should look stylish, sleek, simple, minimalistic right out of the box, no need for hours of customisation!

that is why I**** is so successful, they know how to be stylish out of the box.

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] benkxda:
Wow. Cool down, got up with the wrong foot? ;)

I for one like the feature richness of RR and overall the whole ROM. And I used it on the i9305 till I sold it. You have a lot of choices for Lollipop ROMs, but you can be sure, the support by security updates on Lollipop will die sooner than for up to date ROMs.

Why do you prefer Lollipop over newer versions?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] rodman01:
I am eagerly waiting for the rom you developed and would be happy to test it. You are invited by heard, which was already said some weeks ago. You are claiming again and again and not contibuting any useful stuff. Why don't you just and simple go back to Samsung KK stock rom? There you have everything working and in relation to the possibilities the device originally was supposed to be or to work from Samsung. And please do me a favour: do not use any of the roms, I ported or built for the i9305, anymore.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] Oswald Boelcke:
rodman01, you are absolutely right with each and every word of your statement. Since he or she re-appeared on XDA about six months ago after an obvious break of two years (thanks god!) each and every of his/her post is simply a pain in the ... I don't know how old he/she is but the shown attitude reminds me of a pubescent snotty-nosed brat. *****ing around but without a positive approach to find a solution to a problem; to demand something but for free and without any personal engagement.

Let this guy bake an own ROM, and I pray for someone (maybe grandma) gifts him/her a new device that is hopeful not an i9305 to have him/her abandon this forum forever.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] kbuss:
dude, this is just over the top. you started attacking me on personal level few weeks ago for no reason, just because criticising CM and its camera problems (completely justified critic!). really who do you think you are, and to tell whos to write what and where??? omg. back off.

this is an aggregated thread for all the roms for the s3LTE.

dare you state that I cant write a critic here about general quality and/or availability as a power user (a hell of that!), as long as im NOT BEING RUDE (your definition of rude: not being a fanboy, sorry)

difference between us: you are a developer, im a power user

. i use this phone for a lot of different stuff as a tool, not some prize that i need to customize for days on.

i tried ~30 different roms before writing any critic or conclusion. im not bashing about like some idiot.

yes i stand by my opinion that

not having a working camera for CM is atrocious as this phone was the flagship when the whole CM got really popular, if any phone should have everything sorted out then THIS!

having a lot of weird quirks and features for an old phone is unecessary, it will just interfere or freeze some obscure app that you happen to be needing very much.

and now you investigating my online history... dont you need my FB account? man, you need to stop this

---------- Post added at 02:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:23 AM ----------

I dont understand you and sorry to offend you. To my undertanding you are not a developer of this rom, you are ported and maintaing it. As such I didnt criticized or bashed you in ANY way. I believe the features i mentioned are not your design or choice, its in the original rom presumaby for most phones.... All in all I didnt targeted you in any way, naturally!

I assure you I put good use the roms I installed from you, for serious work, and not FB+Porn or games or lame things!

Also I thanked you every time you replied.

Im a power user, im not a coder or developer... what should I contribute?

but as an architect i have sense for design and ergonomy, and stated my opinion.

what did I claim? arent those facts that I wrote??

on the other hand theres a hardcore fanbase for that. you hate me now bcos im not part of that? why?

By the way I did contribute! it was finally stated by YOU for my question that the CM camera isnt working for this phone and never worked. This info is nowhere to be found. You start googleing it and find 100 pages of contradicting info. there you have it. at least its written somewhere now in

plain text.

---------- Post added at 03:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:42 AM ----------

You are right and thanks. I educated myself about LP that its just a ****tier version of MM. I was hoping then, that the older OS version is maybe simpler and putting less toll on the phone. but everyone writes it wont give such benefits, only more problems. it just wasnt a good version to bother with

ps: sorry for the critique. i just work w design and ergonomy, and expressed my opinion. i didnt expect that some ppl will take it this personally.
