its a really great phone, for me battery its great, stability awesome always on stock firmwares. but im thinking of buying a new phone, GS3 are getting older and better phone are out now..but if you dont want to spend more and only have for S3 go ahead its a really nice phone. camera the best, sound quality its really nice , its super smooth. but what makes me think of changing my S3 its the ram, screen resolution, and the older exynos arquitecture A9.
no more opinions?
Decent phone. I'm sick of Samsung and their lousy updates. They take ridiculously long to release anything. Never again for me

I have the phone since October and I can say that is fantastic. Battery Life 15/20 hours. Stock and Custom ROMs are awesome .. I prefer the Samsung / Stock based ROMs because I can not give up the fantastic motion gesture by samsung. If you buy it you will not regret !

Very happy with my S3 LTE (9305). Can only recommend. Specwise, performance all in all great phone.
guys, what are your opinions about "Best @szezso Branded ROM for a Daily Driver".?
I mean absolutely fully working ROM (minimum to none bugs), with great Battery Life (at least 2 days on light to moderate usage), doesn't matter what version of Android, just wanna hear some "imho"s on Best DD.
or maybe someone could suggest me a better ROM for a DD.? (maybe ARHD or SVHD or Project X or something else )
just opinions based on User Experiences :highfive:
(no TOPs, #1's or nominations, just "imho"'s ) : Thank you :angel:
Any aosp will yield the greatest battery. I haven't used this phone seriously in almost a year but when I did I rocked 4.1.2 for the best battery.
Hey guys,
I am currently using a oneplus 2 but i am pretty impressed by the looks and the egronomics of mi5 not to mention how thin and light weight this device is. Keeping everything simple n straight, I just wanted to ask that is it wise to upgrade to mi 5?
My main priorities in preferred order are battery life, custom rom development, camera and then everything else.
My usage pattern includes a lot of continuous gaming preferably online multiplayers like mini militia and MC4.
On the contrary, I still prefer compact devices with a 5 inch display over a 5.5 inch.
My oneplus 2 is still rocking and I can easily get 2.5-3hrs of SOT with gaming and 4-4.5hrs without it.
Moreover, I wanted to know about the known cons or problems with mi 5 if any as if by any chance buy it, I'll be using it for at least 2yrs. I am just hesitant to buy it because only the 32gb version is available in my region and the phone I am currently using already has 4gb ram and 64gb storage!
I'll be grateful for any helps and suggestions!
Thanks!
Since you are already with one plus I would recommend you upgrade to the OnePlus 3/3T
Mi 5 is a great phone for sure but OP3 is much better for sure also if you are ok with the extra money
I see there is a lot less community development going on as no one seems to be really interested in replying with an reasonable suggestions or help as its been long since I asked for them!
Anyways, I'll still wait for someone to come up until I don't buy some new device!
it is one of the best phones in its class.
well, personally, i dont really like how op3/t looks, and 5.5 is too big for my taste. if you looking for decent camera, performance, and looks, i definetely consider mi5 altho OP3/T is so much better in terms of performance and rom dev as you can see, right now i'm rocking purenexus custom rom on my mi5 and the performance is top notch tho camera still prefer miui based rom. Anyway, these are some points from my usage :
1. Battery life is decent in original MIUI rom, but best at Purenexus rom, beware not all custom rom have great battery life
2. the vibration motor in Mi5 isnt as good as others, even compared to mi4c, i know, its nitpicking, but really for long term use this little thing is quite significant
3. 3GB of RAM arent enough for me at least. if u interested, please consider the 4gb ones
4. fingerprint is not that fast, and the area is quite small
If you really wanna use this phone for at least 2 years, i do think OP3T is your best choice for support. but idk, the kernel source of Mi5 already out, so maybe we'll see better support.
Mi5 is really great device, it is very cheap, and the specs are very impressive. the battery life is very good, here is a picture of my results but note that I don't play games. Custom ROM development is good, not the best nor the worst. I think you should consider waiting a bit more and buy mi6. it will be a little but more expensive but the specs will be much better.
Guys..plzzz..giv 5-10sec of your day and keep your thoughts about the rom u r currently using.. proving .. that it's the. best among all...this will help the developer...to b healthy fight among them..n..will helps us a lot..keep your experience...........plzz.... participate..in it.....!!!!!
All pretty much the same.
Same bugs
All have Different custumization option(least in lineage; max in RR)
all are updated frequently
Same UI
Hi,
I have a 2.5 year old mi a2 and plan to keep it for 6-12 months more. I never installed am custom rom(android one feels pretty decent), But with the battery life and performance deteriorating I am wondering if it is worth it to install a custom rom to improve these areas.
Are android 10 roms as stable and compatible as stock android? If so which ones?
I really appreciate your help!
bump?

Of course they are better than stock. These days you can find custom roms like Awaken that are even encrypted and on the latest Android 11.
Used and tried Awaken, Fluid, Shapeshift, Derp Fest, all good. Depends only which one you like more.
