Hi there, I'm new as galaxy note user and I saw a lot of custom rom. I'd like to know which one is the best custom rom for you for the p600 version.
Thank you so much

You are not going to get an answer to that question on XDA.
1. "Best rom" is a personal opinion
2. People are not going to claim a best because it kinda takes away from some devs who put a lot of hard work into their roms.
Download the available ones and try them all out. That's your answer.
The best advice we can give is to try a few and see what works for you. Different set ups give different results. Even with the same rom. It's why we don't allow comparison threads on xda. Our devs out in a lot of work to give users choice.
I've closed this, but enjoy trying some different builds.

So, Ive been around the S3 forums for awhile, but not so much the root side. Im wondering which is the best all around recovery? Back on the evo, clockwork recovery was HORRIBLE and flashed all ROMs bad and always messed them up but AmonRa did everything flawlessly.
Is there any S3 recovery's that are messed up and flash roms incorrectly? or does everyone just seem to use a main one? If so, which.
Also another question. Do developers on the s3 actually update OP with bugs people find? On the original evo, it was horrible because there would be so many bugs on some roms and OPs where only updated with change log and not known bugs.
Also, can someone tell me the most used ROMs on the s3? nightlies i tend to avoid because they lack to much details and im practically blindly flashing those.
Any 4.2 stock or 4.1 stock or anything? Any kernel suggestions, anything i should be warned about?
Thanks in advance.
Also, sorry for being a forum pest =p
All of these are subjective questions...try out both CWM and TWRP, find which you like better and look into the Development section to see what roms are available, the only way to know for sure whether a rom would be good for you and whether you like it is to flash for yourself rather than taking peoples words for it
Also, theres been at least 5 other threads like this where people have asked "what rom/kernel?", I would suggest looking for those and reading.

You could do that or just use TWRP .

I came to the GS3 from a long history as an Evo owner. While i was on HTC hardware I loved TWRP as it was always the most stable and best supported. On my GS3 though i find that there is better support for the CWM recovery. It seems to work better in my opinion. I have tried both but keep using CWM. I am a CM10.1 user as well and I think that it likes CWM better than TWRP.

I myself have been thoroughly enjoying INFAMOUS S4. It has the features I need, is faster than stock, and is very stable with great battery life. Just did a full backup of 3.3 and upgrading to 3.4 as I type this

does INFAMOUS S4 rom get rid of the bloatware?

Sure does. They also have a zip with the bloat should you require it for some reason.

Instead of giving you a particular ROM suggestion, I'll give you the best way to find the one that best suits you. First, you have to decide what features you want. If you want all the smart stays, the air move, and the other Samsung stuff, you definitely want TouchWiz. If you want a (negligibly) more responsive feel that's more barebones and to the core of Android, go with one based on/around CyanogenMod (or even the Google Edition). Before flashing any new ROMs I'd spend at least an hour reading through both the Android Development and Original Android development sections. You don't have to read every page of every thread, but at the very least read the OP. You should know within the 1st page what features are included, whether it's TouchWiz or not, if it's themed, etc. Most of the TW ROMs are already debloated and will say so in the OP. The CM bases have no carrier bloat at all. If it interests you, take a look at the last few pages. The reason you want to read the last few pages is to get a feel of what bugs are present. As the ROMs get updated and the threads grow, chances are that problems reported on the 3rd page aren't going to be relevant on page 26. If you try one you like, make a nandroid backup of it and keep the backup updated: that way, if another one pops up that you want to try, or you just feel adventurous and want something new, you'll have your backup(s) and can much more easily surf between ROMs if you so desire.
I've gone through Wicked, Jedi, Infamous S4, Infamous Google Edition, and Alpha roms. Personally, I liked Jamison's Infamous roms the best. I'm currently on his Alpha rom, which is based on the international phone's firmware(or something like that?) and has no wifi calling. But it's pretty smooth. Currently Jamison seems to be the fastest on updating all three of his roms, so if you want continual added features/bug fixes go with any of his roms. Wicked was very nice and stable when I used it, but I got flash-happy and couldn't stick with it since he updates like once a month. In the end it's all up to you though.
P.S. The Infamous S4 and Alpha roms recently have had the Samsung apps added back in, not sure why cos I haven't really read all the posts in the thread. You can easily remove them yourself though.

Members are expected to do the research and read through the ROM threads in development before flashing software that will drastically alter their $700 device.
Greetings. I'm coming from an Epic 4g touch. I was fairly comfortable rooting, flashing, tweaking, etc... on that phone. I just convinced Sprint to give me a "free upgrade" to the S3 because I went through 4 E4GTs in a year (lots of build-quality issues, I think I had them all...)
Anyway, the S3 I was given is a refurb ... how do I find out if it's one of the "newer" models that might have trouble with some flashing operations? If I do have one of the newer ones, is there a way to work around the issue? (From what I understand it's something with the bootloader, correct?)
Also, the S3 "landscape" is a little different here. Are the Odin one-clicks a good way to root on this phone? Also is this method (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2286241) a good way to go if I want to root from my Mac? I also have access to a windows machine if there's no "good" Mac-based way, but it's a clunky old laptop that makes me cry whenever I need to use it.
Finally ... as someone coming from the E4GT, is there anything special I should know about hacking around with the S3?
I've been poking around the threads quite a bit, but it's a little difficult to know what's current info etc... Thanks in advance ... can't wait until I know as much about this phone as I did with my E4GT.
Ok here the two major links your going to need.
Here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34579827
Also all your questions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=38172219
also there's nothing changed in the bootloader but the new S3's have some type of safety placed in them that do not allow custom recovery to mount storage. The link I gave you has the modded recoveries when you root. To find out more information go to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=44262749

Awesome, thanks ... successfully rooted. Figured I'd try the TWRP recovery option since ... hey might as well try ALL the new things.
Ok, now which ROM is most stable and has the best battery life? (woah, woah, put that down I was just kidding)
Seriously though, what are some kernel, rom, tweak combos that folks seem to be having success with? I see you guys have Goddly's comadose over here, I used that with great success on the E4GT. Is there a favorite "close to stock" but debloated, mildly tricked out and tweaked ROM that folks are gravitating toward? On the E4GT, Tdundam's recalked was pretty popular ... anything of that ilk here?
I've also read that some folks have been having trouble installing AOSP ROMs ... is that demon exorcized by rooting with the procedure you suggested?
Anyway, thanks for taking the time to be a guidepost ... just trying to whack my way through the weeds on this new device.
Nope aosp won't flash on new S3's but you can try. lots of good roms I recommend either TPR the peoples rom or MOAR. My kernel of choice is Ktoonsez KT747 kernel and I use Comadose tweaks. Have had great success with it but also visit Team Kernelizers thread also.

Flashed MOAR yesterday ... waiting for it to settle in. So far, I like what I see! Lots of flexibility.
I installed with KT747 and applied some of the kernel tweaks in his thread for the ktoonservative governor and bfq scheduler.
I'll wait on Comadose to see how this settles in on its own. Thanks again for getting me flashing this phone.

After trying my hand at installing a mod (cyanogenmod 10.2) I need to go a different direction and get a more stable rom. So I wanted to give cyanogenmod 10.1 a go. Unfortunately it fails on install. After reading through some forums I saw that I needed to install it after I load up stock fl26. But fl26 also failed on install. I'm going to prep for install with another rom but is there something basic I'm missing here?

Hey bud, Your thread the other day got closed (for asking what the best ROMs are), but let me give you some more pressing advice:
Do a lot of reading before doing anything else. It sounds like you might have jumped into this a bit too quick if you're having this many problems. I don't mean that in a bad way, not at all. None of us knew anything when we started... There is a lot to learn in terms of messing with what's inside our devices. If you can't get a ROM to flash right, I strongly suggest you stop - just set the thing down and read, before you brick it and have no more phone.
Every ROM has a Post #1 (the "OP") that has exact flashing instructions, and links to applicable downloads. Make time for that reading - the FAQ threads, the General threads, and the thread for the ROM you want to flash. Because you're on an older device, I promise you that all of the kinks have been ironed out or bugs are well-known (and not going to be fixed) and this is all available from reading. Okay? Good luck.

Install a stock GB27 one click rom. That should reset your phone, and let you install whatever custom rom you want.
I know right... reading....... like when you read a thread about "Best" Roms and it doesn't say best anywhere in the post. :laugh:
Thanks for the help Bud! :good:

If you would like... I can link you to a mobile Odin guide I put together for another member.. it's the easiest way to flash roms on this device( in my humble opinion )...
FYI... I sense that you might be a little upset with some of the posts...Rest assured... nobody is flaming you in this forum... These guys have tons of experience and just don't want you to brick you're device...
Also... this should have been asked in the noob friendly Q & A thread ( it's stickied at the top of the page )...no biggy, We are just trying to keep the Q & A section clean... for all of us to use...
Let me know if you want the link... and Welcome to XDA.. Epic 4g Touch forum...

*I would also like to know the opinions of other testers and devs for this question.
Nobody is going to help you with this question because the point is for you to try the rom yourself. Do some research, bite the bullet and start flashing any and every rom until you find one that suites your needs.
Oh, I think some people might be willing to help, the problem is, your question is to nebulous. You need to give more information.
First the easy stuff.
Newest? Look at the dates of the threads or go to the main thread on ROMs, it usually lists the latest updates. Unless you are taking about the newest version of android (like Lollipop). In that case, look for a higher number. Kit Kat is 4.4,: Lollipop is 5.0
Most Stable? Get a rooted version of rooted Kit Kat stock. It was made specifically for the phone and will likely be most stable
Best? I want slimport out, USB otg, working Bluetooth, and stable. I went with a debloated version of rooted stock (10r version). That is currently the "best" for me. You might want speed, even less bloat, more customization, etc. Your best is going to be different than others.
Give us more details and people can help you. A blanket request for "best" is not enough to go by.
Good luck!
You're not going to get more stable than stock based. I'd be using that if I didn't care about open source and possible spying. Right now I've got PACMAN 4.4.4 without GAPPS with minor issues I can live with but am getting tired of. Might try Carbon next or something.
Avoid anything 5.0 based for now, as it really doesn't feel ready yet.

Thanks for detailed answer, actually u said it right i am newbie so looking for good available rom in terms of stable/latest/fast.
i thought i should ask here before going to try one, as i said i am newbie so the one suggested here should be fine and i can give it a try, then i will surely try others as well.
Problem is that my phone is not rooted, can u help me to get it rooted?

Rooting can be daunting if you are not confident and knowledgeable about modding your phone. As always, there is a risk when installing custom ROMs.
But with success, the G3 rocks! Good luck!
