[Q] Looking for a stable custom rom (s3 mini)

Hey guys, i'm new to android and i just got my Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini.
I didn't like Touch Wiz much so i rooted my device and tried Cyanogen mod 10 that wasn't stable at all (no calls, no contacts), i know that its still in beta.
I saw Miui rom and i liked it very much but found on later that there is no s3 mini version.
Basically i want light rom (low ram usage + longer battery) that is stable with no issues.
Thanks in advance

You can use CM10 from http://maclaw.pl/downloads/

Maclaw's ROM isn't stable and drain much battery.
I'm looking for a stable ROM too.

As i said earlier i tried CM10, i had major bugs which totally disable phone usage.
I couldn't make any calls whatsoever, i didn't see when people call me also phone couldn't read/import contacts from sim card.
I hope someone suggests a good custom rom :fingers-crossed:

for stable rom try dmod v5 I have been using it for a month now and works flawlessly no issues what so ever.

personally i am getting a bit fed up of seeing threads like this one
if people take the time to do a search or even take the time to read through forums they will find what they are looking for

Try DmodV5

[Q] Best Android Version

Hello,
Can someone advice me which Android version is the best for Galaxy S III I9305 at this time?
Thanks

Don't know which is the best, they are all more or less same, some more bloated, some less, and all are based on 2, 3, 4 bases.
If you like TouchWiz, don't need root, than leave it, and apply updates as they come from Samsung.
Basically, there are stock based ROMs, and AOSP, and CM based. If you want to stay on stock base (don't have time to experiment, test etc. Want to have stable basic apps like camera, or drivers for sound and video. But you want root and easy possibility to tweak things.) you could try ripper ROM, and Boeffla or Perseus kernels.
If you like CM, 10.2 nightlies are already enough stable IMO. That is what I am using atm, and I'm satisfied. Only thing I had to change is to switch to SuperSU for root, what's pretty easy. Just install the app from the market, and update su via TWRP/ClockworkMod option.
Main reason I switched to SuperSU is because eXperience pro, and skvalex's CallRecorder didn't work well with CM's super user from Koush.

I've tried rXTREME its a good touchwiz ROM I was on it for a more the or so before the stable CM10.1 was out, now I'm using that with yanks kernel and its brilliant! Fast, smooth, pretty much no force closes if any iirc.

Any ROMS for GT-8190N?

Hi guys,
My girlfriend just got the S3 Mini (GT-8190N) and she wants it to be rooted and also a bit more slim i.e. without the bloatware.
However I can't seem to find that many ROMS for the phone - is it because it's fairly new (being with NFC)?
If you know of any good rooms - please let me know.
Thanks
Jonas

You can install any rom but your NFC wont work.

In other words, it will perfectly safe to install a normal 8190 rom on a 8190N phone with only NFC not working?
Thank for all of your replies guys.

only your nfc wont be working. i have same phone as you and using maclaw cm10.2.

You can root the device and remove the bloatware with titanium backup.

Just download the snapshot ROM and gapps .
And flash it the same way you flashed cm10.1.3 RC3
have a nice day

The next Version of CM 10.1.3. is the pure stable version ,right?
I don`t see any RC3 in the download portal of CM...last RC is the second one ...
So i think this is the stable-version which you have ,right?
Flashing the same way you always flash a version ...

With CM10.2 you should have about 40% longer battery life and faster phone.
Latest nightlies work perfectly fine for me. Download rom zip, gapps for 4.3x/cm10.2, run your i9000 in recovery mode, wipe all (factory reset/data, cache, dalvik cache) flash rom zip twice (first time it will just warn you that system repartitions are different), then flash gapps while still in recovery, reboot, wait until the system and all apps get upgraded, log on your google account and enjoy.
If your apps now are synced with your google account, you'll have all of them automatically downloaded short after running the CM10.2

Have you flashed to CM 10.2 ??? And what is your opinion about it ...:good:

No ROM can be compared to CyanogenMod..they r the best....10.2 is also pretty great...performance is slight better from earlier ROM but battery is frickin awesome ..
20-30% increase in battery!!

Nice to hear ...:good:
But the battery drain is a prob ...i don`t have this issue ,what nightly do you use???
Whats about the battery consumption in the battery-consumer-menu? Any apps eating so much battery like google now or something???
For me it is working great ...

4.4 ROMs

Can somebody please explain the differences between carbon ROM & CM? All the 4.4 ROMs look/feel the same to me apart from the awful sounds in carbon ROM.
I appreciate all the hard work the devs put in to making the ROMs. Iv been using maclaws 4.4 since initial release & its perfect for my needs.

if its comparision sorry buddy cant help [forum rules] why cant u check out videos in youtube about carbon rom and cm

Yeah I've googled it. They "sound" very different but in practice they feel the same.
I'm only asking for the main differences between them.
Back in the days of 4.1 ROMs dmod etc all the ROMs were very different. Now they don't seem that way.
Sent from my GT-I8190 using xda app-developers app

I think that they are very different in the settings but their interface is the same cause they are all basedon the aosp project. If you want to see the differences search videos read the Rom posts or just download them and try them both....

i can't compare them but i can tell you both are different from system as other roms are different from scripts, smoothness etc, etc. This is the same case if you want to know wich rom is better we can't help you with that but we can recommend you one
