[Q] STOCK Jelly Bean ROM for SGSIII LTE (i9305)? - Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help &

Hello!
I've flashed many a ROM to my old HTC DHD, but have recently upgraded to the Samsung SG3 LTE (i9305). I've yet to root, but was wondering if anyone has deveoped a Stock jelly bean rom for this device yet? By stock, I don't mean stock Samsung/Touchwiz, I mean stock, unbranded Jelly bean, the pure google experience like you would find on the Nexus 4.
I've searched and have yet to find anything. I don't post much but follow the forums and flash a lot, so go easy on me!
Any help or a nod in the right direction would be great.
Thanks
Tweedskin

Yeah... you're out of luck; in short, there are no such ROMs.
Codeworkx recently made a Cyanogenmod tree, but right now the RIL isn't working, so you can't actually use your phone as a phone. Unfortunately, Codeworkx doesn't actually own an I9305, and has no desire to deal with Samsung's less-than-supportive approach to development. There was also an earlier build made by LarryTheCow that had a working RIL, but no microphone support and no GPS. Amplified is still working on a port, but, as far as I'm aware, hasn't got very far.
There are very few developers in possession of this phone, and fewer still who are able and willing to work on such a port. I wouldn't hold your breath on this, and honestly, if you really want an AOSP ROM, then you should probably just sell your I9305. If you just want something that looks broadly similar to stock, there are a few ROMs in the development section that include a JB Domination theme, the stock launcher and a few other stock apps, which gets fairly close. You can also use Swipe Dialler and Sliding Messaging to get something broadly resembling the stock dialler and messaging apps. But it's definitely a shame that a phone with excellent hardware lacks developers to support it.

As of this morning there wasn't but about an hour ago it appears it has been updated and re uploaded with the sim card and connection working.

Yes, I thought that was probably the case!
Thanks for the reply and info....think I'm gonna hold out for another view weeks, then sell it and get a Nexus 4 if nothing is around. I use a Nexus 7 and switching between that and the S3 is akin to switching between Windows 8 and windows 7.
Nexus 4 it is! Cheers!

It was the case then, now the only significant bug with the CM10 ROM is that bluetooth headsets have very poor audio quality. Everything else is working.

Cyanogenmod and other roms?

I wish someone would be able to port this onto our devices. Can anyone shed a light regarding this topic please?
Please put all your suggestions and questions here.
The more demand it is, the better. Maybe a developer might get the device and start porting well known roms with native jelly bean? 4.2?
=D I don't want to come across as a leecher, I am just interested in getting to grips with rom'ing and the android way. I don't want to regret getting this device. =)
That is just it, once the dev gets the device then things get ported.
However, I will say that with the latest releases from Samsung (4.1.2 on the 9300, will be with us sooner or later) with the latest additions including Multi Window I am going to stick with the TW framework as I feel these innovations outweigh having a cleaner Android rom. Having had mine for well over a month now and using a Launcher ontop of TW I can honestly say I have not experienced any lag anywhere which is the only reason I would go for a non TW build in the first place.
Just my view, am sure others will feel differently!

That's a good point actually. But I want to be able to try different roms so i can form some sort of opinion. maybe dual boot a stock android based rom like paranoid android, cyanogenmod and a touchwiz based rom to try the note 2 multi window features.

Dual boot! Well that is a completely different ball game!
It would be really a shame if our device wouldn' get any attention. LTE technologie and 2 gigs of ram should be worth developing. I just asked teamhacksung at irc chat if there would be any developing, but the answer was no.
I really hope someone comes up with new ideas and methods (as I am a total noob at this stuff and would sadly never be able to do all the programming).
With all the customisation, kernel and stuff my old sgs1 is almost as fast, if not faster than my sgs3 LTE (apart of booting of course).
Let's get some loving for our black smartphones =]

Its all timing realy, if they had released the 9305 at the same time as the 9300 then most would have opted for the 9305 but they did not and most cannot afford another handset etc... leavign our community pretty small. However the 9305 is now becoming more widely avaialble with sim free retailers starting to stock them soon so things may pick up, you never know!
We may loose out a little here but I guess all we can look farward to is that the next flagship will have the 2gb and probably LTE from the offest.
I have happily been running a ligher rom with a launcher and custom notifications etc... am happy with that, for now anyway!

Yes dont worry about teamhacksung they are in tantrum mode with samsung havent you heard? LOOL Because samsung have not released the sources as of yet. So just hope we have other devs that step on the plate if you want CM10 Which i dont like that much. Or hope samsung releases the codes,
People like cm10 cause its faster UI but have you tried the 4.2 launcher on our phone? i think it Is exactly the same speed UI as CM10 only with less options. So It doesnt take much to get the same smoothness its just that touchwiz has more animations and is much busier then Pure JB... So patience is the key now and we have to wait and see which dev decides to start working
Yeah, my I9305 lay about 2 Days, because my I9000 with the great CM-based Mackay Rom and the fantastic Semaphore Kernel are awesome in speed, look and Features. But S3 with stock not.. But after some reading, I decided to Pandoriam Rom for my S3 and it's great until now. But i miss the simple Grey cm10 Theme, a solid Kernel to set govenours/deep idle and the whole Stuff, the only 3g Option, that gorgeous lockscreen and most Voodoo sound. I hope that will come with time everything.

[Q] Anyone porting 4.1.2 beta to i9305?

Galaxy s2 and s3 have all put their hands on the new 4.1.2 beta, waiting anxiously now for my i9305 international version. anyone has update on this? :fingers-crossed:
Doubt this will happen, they are just too different from what I remember in prior discussions.
We should have something pretty soon for our phones tbh.
On another note, I have been using it on my 9300 for a few days and it seems a great improvent, it is good on battery, there are lots of little improvements including the Samsung Keyboard where the word appears automatically as you type. Multi WIndow is great although not sure how much I will use it, still it is there if I want it!
Really looking forward to 4.1.2 coming over to the 9305.
I have played around with it. The only issue I am having is with the baseband and imei not being detected. Have tried a few things to fix it but am stuck at the moment with what else to try. Other than that it boots, has root and everything else works.

Chiming in here to say that I have been working on this too. But you knew that from our discussions via PM.
I am wondering if we might be able to get the ball rolling further on this for our devices. There are considerable differences between these devices but that shouldn't stop us.:fingers-crossed:
On another note I am thinking the AOSP is the secret to bringing more popularity to this device seems alot of people are waiting for this and keep asking for this,,, So i am thinking of porting an AOSP rom for fun and chucking it in for a variety
mmm not sure about that, I think the new 4.1.2 features outweigh a AOSP release; MultiWindow probably beign the biggest so as soon as 4.1.2 hits here I think there will be some very happy people.
Personally, I use lots of the other features like Allshare Cast, Dual View etc... which I believe (not positive though) would be lost with an AOSP build.
Still happy to try it out is you manage to port it over!
yes i would not use the AOSP but CM has a MASSIVE fan base and so does AOSP... But I agree with you 4.1.2 is much better but even this version has now been merged with AOSP in the i9300 forum lool we need more devs here its too hard to keep up with little help
Devs or no Devs i am still very happy with this device and would not swap it back with the one i had before, which i gave to my mother as a gift But yehh If i really wanted too i can swap it .. But no thanks

[Q] Stock Android on the HTC One?

Hi, I just crossed back to Android and am excited to be back but am a little peeved with HTC's Sense overlay. I had the Nexus S a couple of years back (and loved it!) before using iOS and now I just upgraded to the One hoping to have the same experience with my Nexus.
My question is...and I'm hoping its in the right forum...is it possible to root the HTC One and have stock vanilla Android on it? Honestly, I kind of feel that HTC Sense ruins a really a beautifully made phone. It does add a lot of unnecessary functions and tries to link everything and everyone which makes it absolutely confusing.
Also...how obnoxious is that bootup with the Sprint splash screen? Ugh. Brings the premium down a couple of notches.
You can root the one easily using HTC's unlock method. I believe there's a toolkit in the development section. No vanilla android just yet. Although sense isn't really as bad as what it used to be. (But again, I primarily use my phone for social networking.)

The cm team had a build but it's very Alpha, that's is the only A.O.S.P. Rom at the moment. Once that's all peachy I'm sure you will see others pop up.
As far as the boot up sound, after you root, most of the available rooms have disable it.
Sent from my HTCONE
When my One is on vibrate I never here the boot up sound.
Also, could the 4.2.2 keyboard be ported over? I've already been replacing HTC apps with stock apps (gallery, clock, etc).

If you want to keep up with the development of CM 10.1 which is very close to vanilla android, heres the link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2266048
So far they've got most things working except for the camera, IR blaster, Bluetooh and using headphones while you're in a call. Give it a couple of weeks though and we'll have a very stable version available. I'm not a fan of sense at all, so I'm excited to flash over to CM 10.1.

Download some different launchers from the Play store and try them out. You don't even need to root a device to change launchers. Simply download, install and open.

I'd be curious to see if there is some portion of the hardware that works only with the Sense framework.
It would be awesome if a custom ROM can push the camera beyond the stock experience. Does the HTC 'ImageChip' work with custom ROMs like CM?

Stock Android ROM

Hi all,
Is there a stock android ROM 4.2.2 similar to the Nexus 4 available to the HTC One. Had a little look in the Development section couldn't find one.
With the announcement of the HTC One Nexus Experience it has perked my interest however there's a possibility it won't come to the UK, therefore looking at getting a One and putting a stock ROM on it.
I am aware of Cyanogen Mod however I'm not a fan of it.
look again
If you look in the right section you'll find some...

...yeah, no.
Talk about disrespectful....CyanogenMod is the closest you're going to get to bone-stock Android for a long time. The NE was only announced today. It doesn't even start shipping for another month.
Could have put two and two together...

itll surely help with the AOSP source code to iron out any bugs in CM10.1

I get that this seems to be a popular assumption, but that's not as much of a given thing as many of you would like to hope. HTC isn't obligated to release the source code for the NE One (only the kernel). If they bake Beats/Camera stuff into that ROM, there's no guarantee that our CM10.1 build will get it.
I have no doubt someone will turn the NE's ROM into a rooted stock ROM for you to flash, but I really wouldn't expect it to help CM10.1 all that much.
Once the release the HTC One with stock rom, will it be easier to port it?
Will we be able to get a fully functional working rom?

Of course it will be easy to port it. Porting aosp roms to the LG Optimus G is dead simple because internally it is identical to the Nexus 4. Same logic applies here

you must have had your eyes closed
Jheez, don't think I'll ever bother asking a question again no need for the rudeness!
And for the individual who took offence to me to not liking CM its personal preference I've never liked CM same way I've never like the AOKP either. It sure is a widespread popular ROM and I'm not insulting the developers in fact I respect anyone who can come up with a good stable ROM for android phones.

[Q] Opinion: Best ROM to use on Galaxy Tab 7.0

I just picked up an original Galaxy Tab 7.0, US Cellular variant for $40 for my kid to use. SCH-I800 is the model. I haven't wipe or done anything with it yet. At a quick glance it has Gingerbread installed and I know that is the last official OS from Samsung. I know this is subjective and opinion, but what is the best ROM I can load on this tablet from ICS forward. Looking for the one that is most functional as it is for my kid so I want to minimize the "Daddy this isn't working." or similar issues. Is there a reliable and smooth ICS or JB build from CM or other that you can recommend? Thanks in advance for your opinion.

Your first worry is to get your Device rooted. I'd suggest you try Super One-Click (http://www.superoneclickdownload.com/). Hopefully that should get you started. As to which ROM... I'd recommend you to download an App called GooManager (Check the Google Play Store!). This should give you a list of compatible ROMs for you to try out.
IMHO. I'd tell you to skip ICS (i.e. CM9), as ICS has the Navigation Bar on it, that can neither be deactivated, or hidden. If ya don't quite get what I'm getting at. This Navigation Bar mirrors all the Buttons on the Screen that are already on the Device itself. (i.e. there's no point in having it On-Screen). So I would from this stand point recommend you to jump to Jelly Bean. (i.e. CM10(.1 / .2)) which should get ya JB 4.1.2 ~ 4.3.x. The problem with the newer versions some CM10.1 and definitely with CM10.2. are broken Front Camera (i.e. It takes Black Pictures with 0kb), and or broken Bluetooh Radio. Thankfully most of the CM10.1 - based ROMs don't have these Bugs though.
But, again you should try a few ROMs though the GooManager first...
Thanks for the feedback. Very familiar with Google Manager from my HP Touchpad and Nook Color. I guess I'll start with CM 10.1. Looking for a solid build with the least bugs & issues; newest features are secondary.

Afterthought... If I use Nova Launcher with CM9 wouldn't I be able to hide the persistent bar? Just a thought and if not I'll start with JB.

I use Nova Launcher on JB to give me greater control over how I re-size my Widgets on my Homescreen. I'm not aware of any function I've ever come across, that'll let you turn off or hide the Navigation Bar. AFAIK you can't do it on ICS 'cause its a System Requirement, and turning it off may either break the entire OS. Or at least make it unstable. The few "Hacks" I've seen Posted on how to disable the Navigation Bar on ICS have never worked on my GT-P1000 (GSM Model).
Like I said though, Paranoid Android v2.53, akop-sgt7, HumberOS and cdesai (Sapir) ROMs based on CM10(.1) have all worked well enough for me. But, your Millage may vary. I would HIGHLY recommend you to have copies of Heimdall, Heimdalls' One Click Recovery, Oden v1.70 as well as the Samsung Kies Software installed before you start. It would also be advisable to track down the GB.Stock_Safe_v5.zip file. http://d-h.st/oDP (i.e. The Overcome Gingerbread (2.3.3) Recovery Files*). As you WILL NEED THOSE as well. You need to make sure you flash the correct Modem.bin File for your CDMA Device though, or else you'll end up with a Softbrick. Phone - /!\ - PC Screen. At which point you'll then need to use the One Click-Recovery, to fix it again.
Thanks again for the great advice. You've given me a good start so now all I need to do is find some time to get started. I realized after buying the tablet the charger they gave me does not have a detachable USB cable so I ordered one so I can get started. Thanks again! CM 10.X here I come...
