Stable Rom?? - Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi so I installed RR on my mums s3 mini, it lags a lot and the wifi never autoconnects so she has to reboot the phone very often
Im looking for a rom which battery lasts enough, decent performance (she doesnt use performance demanding apps) and overall stability
Android version doesnt matter

Omni rom, but don't expect battery miracles with those 1500 mAh.

My girlfried uses CM12.1 from novafusion and it works without any problem. Battery is excellent.

I tried several Roma but only those kikat were stable .. :crying:

This ROM is really great!

Guys, what about those new ROMs - RROS 5.8.3 or LOS 14.1? Are they stable enough or are the older ones better?

This is a good question. I use old cm11 Om S3 mini nfc version
But i think about upgrade. Is there any stable custom for everyday use?
I mean not alpha or testing version.
I need stable Rom for this phone. Any help?

I have used this rom for a long time without any problems. Its battery life was very good and performance is better than the other Lp roms. You can use it. or you can use omni kitkat. its performance was amazing but its battery life is not enough. I will change the battery and flash omni kitkat again. I was really amazed

KitKat is not actually stable yet. But developers are working really hard to make it stable. I know KitKat lags but don't forget that our device was not meant to get a KitKat update due to its low hardware. Installing performance scripts can reduce your lag to a certain extent. @Venomous Viper 119 has provided us with a great guide on how to improve battery life & performance of ace. Here is the link,
Improve battery life & performance of Ace
Hope I Helped
Thanks for you reply, yeah its great that all the developers are working hard and i am very thankful for them. Now i m using Governor SMARTASSV2 , its working good. Even battery is running well in SMARTASSV2.

Yes Kitkat is still kind of fresh so it will take some time. If you're looking for performance-wise roms, adrenaline rom or droidace is just the rom for you

Don't use internal memory extender scripts and it'll improve your battery life and preformance due to the decrease in r/w cycle.
:good: using smartassv2 is a good choice, try sio governor and drecease a bit the frequency, it help also you to save battery

My favorite is the version of 27.04.2014 (cm-11-20140427-NIGHTLY-cooper-PS).
It runs without problems with me.
You know then also still the software of ViperTheRipper_CM11_NIGHTLY_20140427_Androidarmv6
download and over CWM install. Some really brings at speed.
Afterwards CronMod-Int2EXT+ install and you have a very stable system.:good:
All other versions RC5 /RC6 always made problem with Google Play.
Much success

which ROM should i take ?

Hi all, i tried several ROMs but my Galaxy S1 remained totally useless because it is so unbelievable slow respectively sluggish. But i heard the S1 is still able to surf on the web or using Facebook.
Therefore i am asking you which ROM i should try for good performance and also good app compatibility (cant install most of my Apps on Android 2 ).
I know your feeling
I tried the latest officials, the CM7, 9, 11, 12, ICS, JB, KK, even LP, only made it worse
I decided to buy a new phone
Then I tried this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2568363
Now the new phone is going back to the shop
Make sure you wipe system, cache, data, even internal sdcard, before flashing (I used an external card to hold the zips)
Tell me what you think
Try mackay ics rom. You'll see the HUGE performance difference when compared to kitkat and lollipop (kitkat and lollipop is slow compared to ics).

I've heard that slimkat had a battery draining issue or some sort of issue that affected the usage of the phone (but I heard this a while ago when I was still using the sgs). Yes, I meant it is faster than Mackay kk. It terms of smoothness, KitKat is better. But in terms of stability, snappiness and gaming, ICS is better. It's all personal preference.

I am a minimal user anyway (phone, gmail, whatsapp, google maps, snapshots, BBC news, that it...).
For that, most ROMS are fine

In kitkat . use omni official
In lollipop use omni or coderom

I might just add on to your comment.
When using jellybean, 4.3 and 4.2 roms uses a lot of ram. The phone's LMK will struggle to keep up with the system demands. 4.1.2 jellybean is definitely the lightest out of the 3.
I'm testing slimbean (4.2.2 build 8) too on my s1 and it is working well. I'm running it with devil kernel and its really fast (almost on par with mackay ics 2014).
Lollipop and kitkat are by far the heaviest versions of android. I think the ram management is better but it is still too slow for our old device.
regards, gsstudios
I am on omni 4.4.4 final official with DomnesuKernel_galaxys_v1.16.1
Working well with 417mb ram and 720p support. It faster and use alot apps
Its good in kk rom
In my opinion omni is the best stable rom i have ever seen
You can also try AICP By Domnesu.
---------- Post added at 03:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:25 PM ----------
Lollipop is ram eating so much and also the battery is bad too
In lollipop roms .
Coderom is more stable and fast than other lollipop roms
Also you can try iyahman's omni builds. It supports bigmem..
But not much fast after some use

Best ROM for Xiaomi MI3

Which is for you the best ROM at this moment? I have just flashed SlimLP with Layers and seems cool! D2TW working!!
Official miui, it has no bugs at all. but i have tried different roms here, maybe the best non official is unofficial omnirom.
i wonder if the dt2w is really working, and its not eating your battery.

My Daily Driver: AICP v10 20150809 nightly + No SIM bug fix + FM fix.
Except for the unresolved HDR bug everything works fine on this build, no issues at all.
Absolutely smooth and stable. Battery life is very good as well :thumbup:

I completely agree.
SlimBit is lean, stable and fast, my daily driver. So far everything works fine (expect the snapdragon camera in HDR mode, but which does???)
After using a couple of others:
MIUI6 - gorgeous design, stable, but slow, resource hungry and full of features - which I hardly need.
Ivan's AOSP 5.1.1 - fast, lean, functional. no updates and regular call drops.
MinimalOS (Bitti's) - fast, lean, functional. no updates and random reboots.
Latest official cm 12.1 is fast, stable and has amazing battery. Omnirom was my previous daily driver - also superstable. Would use miui7 just for the camera, but I cant stand the notification system...

No idea. I just flashed in extended partition. I planning to flash Alexret v6 kernel
I'm using unofficial CM by kundancool, the battery life and performance are great.
EOS is the Greatest!
For rom cook I prefer EOS, love the slide navigation.
But I am using miui7 08.28 now. Its quite stable, no lag, good battery. May be this time Xiaomi did listen to us
Sent from my MI 3W using Tapatalk
Mokee or Bitti's Omnirom - rock solid stable and reliable performance. Install the ColorOS camera (search xda forums) and enjoy the awesome camera.
Metallium OS R1, using for last 2 weeks without any issues. Stable, fast, smooth... Very much like Ivan's AOSP. My reliable daily driver. Love the extra number row on the default AOSP keyboard, makes typing so much easier. Only bug is the known HDR bug. One of the few ROMs which doesn't have the bottom touch bug. Exceptional battery life (both standby and SOT are great).

Totally agree.
I used miui v7 for the first time since its release. Before I was using different custom roms based on lollipop for past 6-7 months.
About MIUI 7 16.09.
I must tell you that its the best refined experience I am having since I bought this phone.
No performance lag ( not as fast as lollipop , but still its great.), No heating at all, Best bettery life ever, Best camera, Best sound.
Its not powerful in multitasking as compared to lollipop roms,, but still I couldnt find any problem on my side.
So if you are like me using custom roms for past 6 months,,, I recommend you to just try it..
You will feel good.
which :/ custom rom has good battery life more then miui7???
, as it is KitKat based it sucks isn't that smooth as lollipop xiaomi is cheating on us

Suggest Rom

I want...
1) battery life.
2)Smoothness
3)don't have big bugs specially with calling,Wi-Fi,3G etc.
Thanks
1. Wrong place to post this.
2. ROM preference is kind of a personal thing. Try them it to find one that best suits you.
You could go With Tesla for speed, battery life is around 11hrs with greenify and fusion 6.0 for battery life (1day with greenify) , performance is good no lag. .. I use the former as primary rom and latter as secondary because of it's battery life , as I give priority to performance than battery life... I've used cm 12.1, pacman, prudroid, blisspop, paranoid, resurrection remix, ... And I found the above said 2 roms the best, personal choice. .
having tried Cm12.1 , stock 5.0.2 , titan , slim LP and loads of others - I'm currently using nexus experience rom all i can say, its the only custom rom i've kept for more than 2days -- NOT saying others are no good-- just I personally like this one.

most stable rom
CM 12.1 snapshot version

I strongly recommentd, Blisspop. BlissPop-v4.0.3-titan-OFFICIAL-20151007-0743
Blisspop has features but bad ram management.. ..
Fusion, Exodus or crDroid
I'm using blisspop with spirit kernel.
Its giving 4 hrs of SOT. Any other ROM which can give more SOT? I'm a heavy user so I need to charge it twice.. Which ROM is best for SOT? Fusion or nexus experience or any else?

LOST in a sea of roms

Hi there.
I been spending several hours reading user's opinions about several roms for the xsp.
I saw plenty of unofficial roms based on cyanogenmod official roms. And the question that pops into my mind it's.
Why so many mods? People doesn't like the official releases?
Also I been reading that 5.1 roms are laggy, and in a custom rom i'm looking for stability and performance.
Maybe I should go for and official cyanogenmod 11 rom?
Maybe for a stock based rom?
What do you think?
Hello.
Yes, there is a lot of rom for SP. But just a few work as it supposed to.
Lollipop it is in his nightly stage, though is very stable and the most recent apps, you will be able to use.
There is too a recent patch for security, we should take in consideration, Im using myself as a daily driver without problems, nevertheless still have some minor bugs, but nothing that cant make you wish to throw your SP on wall
If you want to test and see how looks like, I would recommend Sabermod Unofficial Or CM 12.1 Official Nightly
cm12.1+ addons imo cuz it's my second full month on it and it never failed me ....no problems for me and great performance

battery is good too yep
Go for CyanogenMod 12.1 nightlies with addons...Its Best for lollipop based ROMs.
You can try unofficial CM13 also if you can use the phone without camera. Battery life and performance of CM13 is far better than cm 12.1.
To be honest, is a matter of usage and preference. For me it was working fine but my phone got way too hot for my taste, but the deal breaker was that no matter what lolipop ROM I used facebook HD playback was choppy as hell. I know that it sounds silly but that's something that I need. None of these issues exist on stock, of course (C5306 - 1.205)
I think the Sabermod unofficial takes the lead on cm12.1 ... Great battery and butter smooth. I think it' s the for performance and battery !
I use official CM11 slimmed by me, without gapps, disabled LogCat, little modified build.prop + WilliamsPLUS and I'm really happy ; p
which 5.1 rom has fewer lag and more batterylife?
@beodo
A sea of roms but many of them are discontinued or not updated, so first check that one.
As fellow members said CyanogenMod 12.1 Unofficial SaberMod with add ons is the best right now for me as well, very fast, really fluid,stable and good battery life, in is some parts is even better than the latest official stock rom.
I m using this rom for over a month and i love it.
If you need even better battery life you could use Helium kernel (just dirty flash at recovery) and enable conservative governor, if you would like to take it further you can also install xposed framework which unlocks you much more features like power saving better experience, extra customization and more.
All of the above are continuously updated and supported by our great developers too :good:
