[Q] XXALF2 vs IMM76I Omega custom rom ? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
sorry if some might already answered this question, but i was unlucky with my search and im n00b to the Android system ( been use IOS for years)
my question is, what is the different for me with a SGS3? is it just a updated Android release?
currently im running with the XXALF2 version now and with that i can use all the SGS3 function, but what about IMM76I, does it have same function (smart call, smart stay and smart alert?) and what is the different ?
thanks in advance.

IMM76I is AOKP rom more custom rom and XXALF2 is orginal Samsung rom full whit blotware.But you haw XXALF2 custom made roms like Omega , Wanam and other.

Hmm people are loving empty spaces rather than bloatwares sorry softwares . And how misleading it would be introduce those words to new users ?

thanks for the quick reply.
so with the AOKP i dont have the same function as the samsung custom rom, if i decide to flash IMM76I ?
when you say bloatware you mean software reporting status to samsung ?

Aosp roms will miss ssome features of Samsung rom . Like you won't have smart stay, pop up play, etc etc. Aosp is meant for pure Google experience like galaxy nexus. Yeah people call additional software's from Samsung as bloatwares

Thanks mate. I'm better understand it now, what about kernels, does it have anything to do with these release?

it depends on the kernel, some kernels only support samsung roms and some kernels support both samsung and aosp.
as of now it is safe to use aosp roms with thier own kernels, in a few days of time custom kernels like siyah will support both aosp and samsung roms.

Siya already does.
OP,
I would suggest staying with the samsung based roms for now. You're new to samsung android. Get used to the features and how you can use your phone.
I always used AOSP Roms (Android open source project) to replace my HTC roms but I knew what functionality I was missing.
I too am new to Samsung and finding lots of cool features that are samsung only.
There is no way I will be going to AOSP yet. And this is from someone who developed AOSP for HTC devices, so obviously I am a big fan of AOSP.
Im just saying, theres a lot of benefit from samsung roms so work out what they are before trying aosp then you will see what (if anything) is missing for you.

yeah it does, but not recommended for new users with aosp as of now. would suggest the OP with stock roms for some months atleast..

alright, i agree - the features in the stock rom are awesome and i wont miss that by any chance, the problem with me is that im love to custom everything instead of standard and sometimes it have its backfire effect
the Omega seems to still have all the feature and i would maybe stick to that one for now.
about the AOSP, do you believe there will come a release that support all the currently feature SGS3 have in the future ?
cheers and thanks

Very doubtful. Usually none of teh features can be ported. Sometimes a couple of the basic ones can be.

[Q] Custom ROMS vs Stock

Do all Custom ROMS for all the positive features they may bring always result in less stabililty than a Stock ROM?
I imagine CM7 to be the best....seeing as he works for Samsung also. I certainly found it the best when I had the I9000/Galaxy. However looking at the CyanogenMod forum there are plenty of people raising issues with the builds (including 'stable' builds).
I really enjoy trying different ROMS usually but I am deliberately sticking with a rooted stock at the moment - and it has never froze, crashed or rebooted itself yet! I do miss fiddling with my phone though!
Thoughts/opinions appreciated.
Thanks
criskelo 31 + latest siayh - no problemo )))
Yes.
(10 char)
If you want a stable rom, then use the one in my sig. Oxygen is amongst the most stable roms that are out here. It's almost bugfree, because the creater of the rom, Adam G is a perfectionist.
You have no touchwhizz, just stock android that works. If you are looking for a shiny rom, then this one is not for you. If you want a stable rom and an almost bug free rom, then this one is for you.
ps you won't find this rom on xda, because he does not want that anymore.
Samsung Galaxy SII
try this combination...
*CheckROM Revolution HD v3.1.1 (fast and lite)
*Speedmod-kernel-s2-k2-18-test8-CWM.zip (best battery life)

I don't know if you can say that. It has some coding from CM, drivers etc. But it is supposed to be a stock android rom, the way google intended it, with (almost) no CM stuff.

New SGS2

Hi guys,
I'm new in the Samsung scene, I've Always used HTC phones before. My question is not how to flash (i'll first search for it myself), but if anyone could recommend me a rom with the look and feel of the SGS3 software.
I've searched but couldn't find anything i think works 99%.
thx

Try Resurrection remix 2.6.1. Based on ICS and stable as a rock. I'm pretty new myself and been using it for a while.Easy to install and no issues whatsoever. :good:
First of all, are you sure you have an i9100 and not an i9100G, a skyrocket (AT&T or Rogers), a Galaxy S2 LTE HD, etc?
If you do have an i9100, this is the forum for you. If not, try and find your right forum...
I'd look in the SGS2 android dev forums and not the Original Android Dev forums. Alot of cooks have ROMs with SGS3-like themes... And there's possibly a touchwiz5 mod in the themes section. I know the ripple lockscreen was ported too...
To be honest, alot of ROMs exist but it's a question of taste... I know Resurrection remix is a popular one. Alot of people switched to Cyanogenmod when ICS hit though, as ICS wasn't up to par for Samsung's implementation...
Your best bet is to flash a custom kernel with CWM recovery in Odin (Alot of guides to do this) like CF-Root and then grab ROMs and flash them through CWM. If you want a kernel that's able to dual boot, you can use DreamKernel, Siyah, etc. That way you can get one ROM going and test a second ROM as a secondary. Dual booting can be achieved because we have a 500MB partition on our phones that isn't used for anything... Fun, is it not?
And The other rom is pfittech ics rom and is also stable and he is working on stable jb rom as among other devs

I'd go with rootbox. Just because the dev updates more frequently does not mean it's a better rom. The ones who don't update frequently just mean they don't have bugs to fix...

sorry I didn't know about that.
it's ICS 4.0.4, base: XWLPX and it's alliance V4 rom
Then I'd say no. There is JKay deluxe mod which I've read includes back to kill feature, but there is no version of the mod for XWLPX

So you are saying that Samsung XWLPX has the option to enable back to kill, but Simplistic V ROM doesn't? So ask the Simplistic V ROM developer to make it available, no?

LOL I confused Alliance with Simplistic (I thought they were the same). I don't use tht kind of ROMs so I don't know their names. Excuse me on that.
You should ask in the ROM thread. I don't see a way you can add the feature yourself... Good luck

LOL you don't even know the purpose of developing and the work and innovation they do. They miss some Samsung propietary features, but they have lots of more (depending on the person) useful features AND it goes months ahead official updates (on i9100 the difference will be a few months, in some devices will be longer, and in some devices Cyanogen is the only update they will see).
Think before saying so many foolishness in so few words. I'm done here bye

Omega 100% stable and the developer indie doesn't stop. Always updated to the latest firmware. Also a lot of theme support on the thread. Check out motomoto theme its a beauty.

Sure? Because I Think what android eclair,froyo,ics,ebean all of them are ROMS And things such cyanogen, criskelo ,darkys etc are MODS for the android ROMS!... and im NOT asking for the BEST "rom".. simply i am asking for suggestions .. i readed so much stu**d questions here and i think mine is not so bad... thanks for read anyway

eclair, froyo, ics, etc are versions.
cm, darky, criskelo, omega are all roms that are modded. mods on the other hand are specific changes that do not include the whole rom with it. it depends on having a rom as a base to install onto.
stuff like removing charging notifications or add camera functionality are mods. the ability to add any app to multi Window is a mod, but cm, darky, omega etc are ROMs. they're completely independant and does not require a flashing of another rom as a base.
and yes, you are asking for what the best rom is. the fact is, you'll have to just try different roms and see which one suites your need. check the all in one sticky thread for a link to another thread that categorizes roms based on what concept of android they're going for (stock, aosp, aokp, sense, etc etc).
all of these roms are very well documented and they explain what their rom was built for.

[Q] What stock (little modified) rom you are running on i9300?

Hey!
For start i will say that THIS IS NOT BEST ROM THREAD
I just wanna ask ppl wich roms they are using on their S3 i9300. Because getting through unsegregated list of AOSP/AOKP/STOCK roms is little confusing and i cannot find some kind of list of stock modified roms(i dont like that holo feel).
So XDA users? Will you help me?

Thanks for reply but the list you linked links to aosp/aokp roms wich i simply hate.
And now im on Wanam rom and i realy hate it. it may have sammy base but in end it behaves just like aokp/aosp.
Thanks anyway.
I sense a mod will lock this one quite quickly, there is a good reason why it's against the rules -all the useful threads would disappear in a flood of pointless babble.

I used also Wanam rom and it was really good if ur after stock. U might want to try S4 Revolution also, its as close as it gets to stock with updates from S4 if u pick the right stuff in AROMA.
