Can You Suggest a Good CM Lollipop Rom? - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

I got the Samsung S3 Tmobile T999. I want tot install the latest Cyanogenmod rom. Mind you, I'm a noobi, never installed CM before. But I'd like a good recommendation for a good, STABLE rom thats CM with the latest Lollipop. But without any issues like camera, video, wifi, calling, etc. . Can you please recommend one?

Honestly to tell you every Rom is almost based of CM . So your best bet would be to install CM 12 cause you get constant updates.

Will I have to reinstall all my apps and settings when I get updates?

No, once you download the update go to recovery and look in cmupdater folder in the root directory, the update should be there. once u install it, you are good to go, everything will be there after u update, so no reinstalling. just clear ur cache before u restart after update.

Ok cool.. Will do that. Appreciate it.

[Q] Want to Try a Rom...

Noob and want to try a Rom. A long time ago, I used Cy-Mod 7. Nervous about battery life, I reverted to stock. Having updated today to 4.1.2, I rooted devise using Causal Root. I have GooManager installed. I want to try a different ROM but still preserve battery life and performance (like everybody I suppose!). Any tips?
I'd love to be able to tether, too.
So...which one and how do I do it? (GooManager??)
Thanks in advance.
Head over to the Android Development Page and check out Quantum v1.15. It's a super solid rom made by a great developer. It's based of CM 10.2 (Android 4.3) and it really stable and has superb battery life. Tell them I sent you! :highfive:

Thanks. How do I install? My Galaxy s3 is rooted - running 4.1.2. As noted earlier, I do have GooManager installed. I don't have any backup software on the phone (though I'm not terribly sure there is anything I need to backup - given my contacts, email, etc., are backed up server and apps are backed upon Google Play).
Thanks!!!!
Any helps? I want to install custom rom (maybe kernel?) but I have no idea how to begin. As noted earlier, it is rooted (using Causal), running stock and I have GooManager on it. Aside from this, I'm lost. Thanks all!

If you're still "lost", then I suggest u do a lot more research/reading before flashing anything to get up to par on everything! Also, I wouldn't use goo manager to flash anything, either download to PC and transfer to phone, or download directly from the phone over WiFi, and flash in recovery. A little reading goes a long way, and will hopefully prevent any issues and need to start new threads stating this doesn't work, or that doesn't work. Good luck!!

Rom to flash

Hey all, I am runnig a rooted stock LS980, with TWRP, I just got an OTA push tonight, and I am not going to flash it, but I hate the notification so I guess I am going to flash a custom rom instead of waiting until I get home. Which rom do you all recommend?
I am thinking pac-rom, but the most recent nightly was 7/10, but there is a build called pac_ls980-dev-20140730 can anyone tell me what this is?
Also I cannot find the Gapps to pacrom?
Do you recommend cyanogenmod or AOKP and why? which version should I flash and Gapps???
Thank you!

You dont have to swap roms to lose the notification. Just swipe down and click and hold the notification, open the app info and select the notification check mark off.
Personally I enjoyed the Liquid Smooth rom, it was very fast. And any standard gapps file for your version of android should be fine. Just remember to flash the ZV8 radio if you are going with an AOSP rom. Or flash dr87s kernel. And not to sure what that build of pac-rom is. And I enjoyed Cyanogen for a bit, they are always working on new things, you know that there's going to be a fix to any problems that arise. And I love the blue look. But everyone uses roms for different things, I mainly use stock, rooted with xposed framework.
Why not try them all?

I am pretty comfy with cyanogenmod, I have used it since I got my HP touchpad two years ago, however I prefer pac-rom.
can I get the ZV8 radio link please? what is the dr87s kernel? good or bad? I am running kernel 3.4., but i believe to be a JDI kerel, and not LGD because I flashed the white lines fix.
CM11 is a great ROM, but I will warn you, if you're in an area with Spark (B26 of B41), ZV8 radio wont connect to those automatically. If you're wanting to keep Spark enabled, I'd recommend Slim or Mahdi until CM11 updates their kernel to support the newer modems.
Also, newest Mahdi/Slim will auto detect your display during installation so you will not need to worry about having a JDI panel.
EDIT: Here's Mahdi's Thread and here's SlimKat's Thread. They both use Dr87's kernel which is boss.
What Ascertion said is spot on, but here is the link for a zv8 radio. It also contains a lot of useful information. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2627765

So, If I were to flash Slimrom, and the Gapps, do I have to flash the dr87 kernel as well as the ZV8 radio?
in the install directions it says to wipe everything, however i was told not to wipe system before when flashing a rom... should I or shouldn't I?

Nice. Tried LL (spanish mod) and so far so good.
I am running the Beta3 Version (including TWRP) and had to flash it 3 times until everything worked.
Its crazy sometimes, but after the first installation the internnal memory was not working.
After i did the same thing again. The internal memory was working but the bluetooth stopped working.
Now, after flashing it the 3rd time everythings seems to work fine.
Its important to have twrp because you need to flash the rooting zips and gapps.
but it works nice no further issues so far. ( I have a S3S)

[Q] Best option for stability and speed, custom ROM or Rooted Stock

I've just bought a used Ace 2 which has come with:
GT I8160 (im in the UK)
android v 2.3.6
baseband - I8160XXLL2
2.6.35.7-1218501
build number gingerbread.XXLL2
The threads about flashing a custom ROM have 100+ pages and a lot of links are out of date. I wanted to try a custom ROM, eg CM 10.2 but I have a couple of questions.
I just want to be able to use modern apps, eg Tom Tom app. Google maps, Chrome, and I need to be able to use the phone in different countries, eg France, Portugal, Croatia. The current 2.3.6 is not compatible with some new apps so I need to upgrade.
Should I just update to the Jellybean Samsung provide via Kies?
Should I update to a custom ROM eg CM 10.2 ( i think this may be a stable release), if so will this be stable and have less bugs than the stock ROM?
Should I upgrade to samsung Jellybean and then root and remove bloatware?
I would like to try CM but I think it might not be as stable as the stock ROM, is that correct? Also there are questions as to the process and correct files I will need but I will ask that later if needed.
Thanks!

I think you should try it yourself. For my needs, I can't live with stock anymore lol. With my needs, I multitask a lot, needs speed and stability and so far I'm quite satisfied with CM11 built by ace2nutzer with his kernel or ChronoMonochrome's kernel.
For another option, I also like liquid smooth, but I kinda missed some features from CM (kinda forget what was that).
By this time, we already have everything that we could use from stock with alternatives, and some better. But again, try it yourself to know which suits your needs.

Ok, cool. I guess I can revert back to stock if I dont like it.
So I guess I just use the ROM from this link with the latest build date?
http ://xda.mister-freeze.eu/XDA-files/ace2nutzer/Kernel/
which is ace2nutzer.kernel.4.4.x_20150620_codina.p.l.zip
Just built 2 days ago, 20th June 2015?
Also what gapps do I need?
Thanks!

Nope. That's the kernel only. For the ROM, follow this link: http://xda.mister-freeze.eu/XDA-files/ace2nutzer/CM11/codina/cm-11-20150610-UNOFFICIAL-codina.zip
GApps: http://d-h.st/hrsq
After flashing the ROM, you could flash the kernel with the link you found.
That is really helpful, I would have never found the right files on my own

Try it. Then you'll know whether it is stable or not.
Anyway, so far no one has got serious issues.
Yes, ROM first, then kernel. That is assuming you are at least from stock Jb or any other custom kk or lp roms

Try Eclipse V5 if you want a TW rom. I am using it. I just flash it two weeks ago. I also on stock 4.4.2 before this. First time flashing. Never knowing soo much about rom and other stuff. Make sure you read a lot before flashing. Most of the instruction can get online. Although V6 is out, but i still stick with V5. Most V5 info can get from "[ROM][GT-N7100][TW 4.4.4] Eclipse By AC" under "Galaxy Note II Original Android Development". Happy flashing.

i have been using android version 5.1.1 based on CM 12.1 by ivan meler and i have been using this phone with this rom for the past two months , it's development has been completed that means it is the most finished version with literally 0 bug or lags and i must say i didn't expected this kind of performance at all ... this made me revert back to my note from my iphone 6 (you can imagine the smoothness of this rom) i would not recommend you marshmallow based roms becasue about 20 days i tried one and it had issue so if you use this device as a daily driver i would say go for 5.1.1 roms instead and CM 13&MM is still in development phase that means developers are still making it worthy .
you can hit the thanks button if i helped if anyhow .. if you need any noob friendly guide on how to root and install custom roms you can always ask me .. and there are quite of few tutorials on xda a well as Youtube

Yes it's based on CM but I tested some Marshmallow Roms and this ROM is really good.
Try Ivan Meler's Cyanogenmod 13 Rom ( Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow).
It´s pretty stable and i had no problems until build 6.
Wirth build 7 there is a problem with bluetooth for some people.

All the custom ROMs (not Samsung official) must be installed with a custom recovery like TWRP or ClockworkMod. The custom recovery can be installed with Odin.
I have been like a month with CM13 and I had no problems, but if you want a stable ROM, install an older one like CM12.1 aka Lollipop.

OK. And how it's update?
From 12 to 13 When will be stable. Need again flash and wipe or OTA update?
Try Dr. Ketan's kit Kat, N3, N4 and S5 features. Truly superb. Great battery life, Viper FX for sound. Stable. Tried many but always come back to this one.
