[Galaxy S III General] AssassinGEO:
Camera can be bad on AOSP only for true photographers,who use all that gimmicky features.

If you are just a person who just turns the camera on and does the shots,then there's nothing wrong with it. Plus there are many fixes available and some app's like Lenovo Super Camera that can give you enough functions for nice snapshots.

As for battery life,it's about time and patience. You need to test many ROMs and find the best one for you. I'm using Temasek ROM and while the performance is twice better,battery is just the same as it was in stock 4.3 ROM.

Also,4.3 AOSP ROM's are using kernel source released officicially by Samsung,so they are the best for Camera and Battery while having even better performance (compared to stock).
[Galaxy S III General] Robin2:
Believe me, as a photographer you don't use any of those gimmicky features. They're aimed at consumers whose phones are the only camera devices they own. They are the people that enjoy those filters and whatnot. I see them as the people that consider Instagram to be a serious photo editor. :P
[Galaxy S III General] Stilm:
AOSP roms are awesome, I love the look and functionality of them however one thing keeps me from using them, that's the battery drain issue after a call. If anyone knows how to fix it please do let me know :P
[Galaxy S III General] goughymachine:
With you there too Robin2. Photographers want the best untouched image, Even from a phone. They wanna play with it later. The gimmicky stuff is for everyday shmo's like me. I just don't want my camera working 80%of the time. Camcorder would crash on me half the time, requiring a reboot. By then what I was capturing was gone.

Not complaining, I'd love to use an aosp rom, but the few little stability things are with things I use. Battery life didn't bother me at all.
[Galaxy S III General] popoyaya:
Is this an issue with all AOSP roms? How bad is it?
[Galaxy S III General] AssassinGEO:
Well,what about when you don't have enough time and just need to capture a shot? That's the situation that happens most of the time. But if you still use that features,then it means you're using the phone kinda more like a camera device.

Also,never had any crashes when recording videos. Always end up with full recorded videos. Then only thing you need is a fixed lib,because most of AOSP ROMs come with bad camera. People are installing ROMs expecting everything functional but that's rare. Yeah,it's bad that you need to fix some issues yourself,but most of the people don't even think about that and give up very fast and going back to Stock. Go and search some,you will find a fix for every problem you got.

Haha,that was fixed a long time ago,man.
[Galaxy S III General] Moster2:
No, it was not
[Galaxy S III General] AssassinGEO:
Really? Never experienced such issue (Temasek ROM).
[Galaxy S III General] Moster2:
It is there unfortunately. You also really wont notice it while using your phone. Its the idle phase(e.g. night time) that is mostly affected. You are probably also just used to it, so you dont know the difference.
[Galaxy S III General] AssassinGEO:
Oh,idle? Not about me. I'm using my phone whole day and overcharging my phone at night,so having my phone idle for a long time is really not about me.

Thought it was about when using the phone.

[Galaxy S III General] GrippingSphere:
If rebooting doesn't solve the Ram problem, change your Kitkat Rom.

Currently I'm using qs-i9300-kk. It's fast and stable. Highly recommended.

Sent from my GT-I9300
[Galaxy S III General] tintin1503:
Qs-9300-kk is as stable as official, not a single reboot or ram clogging like sammy 4.3 so far after 1 week of use. Much better than official 4.3 and other ported roms. 200% recommendation super stable stuff, even fit for daily official use.
[Galaxy S III General] immyrock:
i m using custom rom in s5 fature
[Galaxy S III General] matin0611:
great work dude
[Galaxy S III General] mohit.rathi:
Qs-i9300-kk is the best port there is for galaxy s3.

NO problems so far after 3-4 weeks of use.
[Galaxy S III General] AssassinGEO:
Actually,what that port got maximum is good UI performance (better by 20%,if not less). Other than that,RAM isn't any better,and games aren't playable,as well as the GPU isn't overclockable. You still can't multitask on it with more than 2 apps,they are just getting killed.

And the camera isn't stable at all. Even with anti-shake,screen is not smooth,especially when focusing,it makes screen jittery.

So,no,I prefer CM over that port.
[Galaxy S III General] GrippingSphere:
GPU can be overclocked via a custom kernel like Agni.

Camera is working fine here.

I respect your opinion.

Everybody has his own preferences and liking on the type of Rom he wants on his phone to best suite his needs.

For me, after countless Rom flashings, I find the stock and ported stock Roms like qs-i9300-kk better suitable to my kind of usage.

I don't play high-end games. My preference is phone stability, responsiveness, less bugs, and with a good camera.
[Galaxy S III General] mohit.rathi:
Exactly. At the end of the day what matters is what you want from your phone. For me its the kitkat S5 look and since I don't bother multitasking much or playing high end games, roms like these are a boon.

S3 Neo 4.4.4 port??

Just a hope and dream, but why not start working on a s3 neo 4.4.4 port for our s3's? I mean the hardware is virtually the same except for the 1.5gb RAM and adreno gpu.

edit:nvm I see the s3 neo uses qualcomm and not exynos, seems like samsungs way of giving us the kitkat update is for us to buy an entire new phone in the same price range and similar hardware and features.
[Galaxy S III General] GrippingSphere:
At present, the chance of getting an official Kitkat Rom on GT-i9300 is close to nil.

There is already a very good ported Note 2 Kitkat 4.4.2 stock rom for our S3: qs-i9300-kk.

It's fast, smooth, and very stable. No FCs, good for daily use, every Samsung features are working such as Screen Mirroring and WiFi direct plus a lot more added features such as Lockscreen notification and Ultra Power Saving Mode.:)

Best Kitkat Rom for Galaxy S3 GT I9300 International

I am confused between Liquidsmooth rom ,S5 Sensation, Paranoid & Archi Droid..:confused:
[Galaxy S III General] Soryuu:
Liquidsmooth - AOSP rom built off Slim (?)

S5 Sensation - Touchwiz rom built off QS-KK 4.4.2 port with S5 features/apps.

Paranoid - AOSP rom built off pure AOSP and CM, with unique features

Archidroid - 1.x is Touchwiz-based, 2.x is AOSP. Both have a variety of performance tweaks

Hello, I hope this is appropriate thread to ask this:

I'm looking for a non-touchwiz i9300 ROM that would have support for either passive USB dock audio output or USB DAC support. I'm currently running slimkat, and it's absolutely wonderful, but it doesn't have any support for dock audio... Does such thing even exist? And if the only option is to use touchwiz based ROMs, which would be closest to slimkat (speed, ui, dpi etc.)?

Earlier i used C-ROM(similar to Liquidsmooth). It was nice but some bugs were there(random reboots, bluetooth not working) and since it's based on AOSP i was not able to use some features(like FM Radio). Then i saw the ROm thread of Sensation S5 and i installed v7. It is cool :good: (thanks to [MENTION=5545230]sunajkram23[/MENTION] ) ;) Now using all samsung features.

Only problem that i have is some less memory(use around 650 with all facebook,messenger,hangouts,viber,whatsapp running. sometimes goes around 750). It's a great ROM

I have no idea about Paranoid & Archi Droid :D:D:D

Well, 1GB RAM is always a pain for my cell phone when run larger games. I think the configuration can no longer meet my requirements. Anyway, cell phone is still a cell phone, you can not treat it as a PC.

[Galaxy S III General] akhilleus_:
Yeah, I really agree with what you said at the beginning. The ROM in phones isn't staying up-to-date with the apps and technology that's being developed on the software side of things. But I try to not let it bug me because as you said, it's a phone not a computer or a console. I try and relegate my phone usage to less demanding games and use in general.

regd not registered on network issue

Hello evryone..

i use a Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-i9300 with the following settings currently:

MODEM- I9300BUUGMJ3

AP- I9300XXEMF1

CSC- I9300OXAEMC2

ROM- ARHD v28.0 (android 4.1.2)

KERNEL- siyah 1.9.1

i know these settings are pretty old now but this is what seems to work flawlessly for me. i have tried 4.3 (ARHD v51) but like many other users i get the "Not registered on Network" issue. To solve it i use "patched_BUUGMJ3_modem", i have also seen that "patched_XXUGMK6_modem" works and gets back the network in my phone. i am sorry i dont have the links but i do have the modems if anybody needs. trust me i have tried many things and read many posts in many different forums, this is what worked for me..!!

what i want to know is, i wana install Liquid Smooth v3.2 (kitkat 4.4.4)..it seems quite good to me and my friend has it..i installed it a few times and it runs too, only problem- "not registered on network" - i need a working solution to this, if anybody can please help i'd be very verryyy grateful. i have tried these above mentioned patched modems but somehow they are not helping me this time (if anybody can answer me why). i have tried flashing stock 4,3 roms from sammobile, the issue still persists and only patched modem brings back the network.

most importantly i have taken my phone even to a service centre and they said even they are unable to rectify the problem, so seems i am on my own now..i know the msg is big, but if u do read it, please do reply.

Thank You
[Galaxy S III General] AssassinGEO:
With that problem, I would recommend you to stick with your firmware. Believe me, 4.1.2 runs much better than both 4.3 and AOSP KK.

KK is fast, but lacks HWC so animations won't be smooth always and camera sucks too. 4.3 has really bad UI performance.

4.1.2 is just the best of both worlds.

There's no best Rom. It depends entirely on what features the user likes on his phone. A Rom might be good for one user but bad for another.

Jellybean: Official stock 4.3 recommended, then disable/freeze all unwanted apps later.

Thanks. I have been making some limited progress on the Sprint variant (L710). With respect to that phone, I have installed and tested these four:

CM11 (http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=2030660)

Gummy (http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=2563973)

Do they represent a good cross section of available ROMs or am I missing a bunch of good ones? In particular, I disqualified the second option since several apps couldn't write to extsdcard even though I have installed and executed SDFix. SDFix is not required for the first option and it does everything I want. I also tried CM11, but it seems to have more bloatware than SlimKat and no obvious advantages. Gummy kept giving me FC's on various gapps apps. In summary SlimKat has floated to the top. My only complaint is that I had to tweak the dpi, but the texdroider app fixed that. What are some good options that I'm overlooking?
