Hello all, I have finally decided to root my S3. I just have one question though, what app would be good to backup all my settings, pics, apps and everything else? Also what is a good Rom to use that's fast and based on jellybean?

You can use titanium backup. As for the ROM it depends, some prefer stock with custom kernel others prefer asop ROMs. You should browse the forums and decide for yourself. Also next time search and only make a new thread if you can't really find an answer, the moderators may get mad at you.

What's the difference between asop and stock with different kernel? I read some older topics and just go too confused.

read the OP. it explains the different naming schemes of various different ROMs. it also lists all the roms that fall into different categories of aosp, aokp, stock, and others.

actually jjegan is right. due to hardware differences, you need to check out the appropriate forum for your phone. you will turn your phone into an expensive paperweight if you flashed any roms or kernels in this forum.

OK, but my ram is up to 560mb...I don't understand,why???
That's normal for the S3, touchwiz uses a lot of ram. Don't worry about it.

You can try removing some Samsung bloat from your rom you'll find it in /system/app
There are lists here on xda.
There is a bloat removal tool in original development sub-forum.

As the title states, is CRT animation available for the jelly bean roms that we now have?
I have done a fair bit of searching, couldn't get a conclusive answer so thought i'd post a question.
My apologies if it's blatantly obvious, i simply couldn't find a straight answer.
Many thanks.
It is available on aosp and aokp roms and few stock sammy roms....i couldnt tell you which ones though.

Many soft mods look like that. Go to the dev section and find it. Being on your phone is no excuse. FYI I typing this from my phone browser
So,on dev section or theme section ?

^Lol. If you got cm9/cm10 go search Google/Gplay for touchwiz theme if you don't mind changing ROMs go to dev section...
Thanks for being ironic .so is there a jb ROM with gs3 look?I m searching smthing that doesn't FCS.
I am looking for smthing like this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1804032 but for gs2.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app
Well if your searching then you would know that one such ROM is based on cm10(jb) while some are stock ROM based... if you can't tell which is more stable then I would suggest switching to a Nokia

If you are trying to be smart please stop because you are doing it wrong.I just asked some question.is a q/a forum so cut it out.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app
so i purchased a s3 on craigslist. the camera its kind of funny and the rom seems more like a generic rom without any s app how could i find out if the phone is fake or not? and if it's possible to install clean rom from this forums for this version.
thanks in advance.
Sounds like whoever sold you the phone sold it to you with some sort of custom Rom. I would suggest you look under your about phone, and let us know what it says there.

First question you should ask is how much you paid for it because if the price is too good to be true the device is probably not a legit one, also from lookong at the about phone screen that is either some rom I havent seen or poss a fake
Also this should noy be in this forum area try closing this down and request it is moved to either general or q&a
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Custom ROM for a custom fake phone it looks like. Install Android System info and see what chipsets it contains...

Most likely a fake S3 - based on Mediatek mtk6575 CPU.

I did it by flashing the photosphere zip file (and I think one other .zip file too).

Nope just rooted stock... But restoration from tb. I figured the galleries would cause problems thinking they were version differences. O well not having any issues but thought I'd share a weird occurrence.

O... Thought of a question though... I know people have said that 4.1.2 camera won't work on 4.2.2, but since both are are working on 4.1.2 and they are evidently just apk's, can't I just restore the 4.1.2 on 4.2.2?

Pretty sure the 4.1.2 camera is TW-dependant, so it won't work on a non-touchwiz( 4.2.2) ROM
Thanks, didn't think of that.
