Hi!
A friend has a Samsung Galaxy S III (I9300). He would like to change ROM, now he's on latest firmware (4.3 if I remember right).
He like Android Lollipop based ROMs, but if there are other ROMs (KitKat for example) that are best we'll install it.
I don't know how to flash a kernel, a recovery and a ROM on Samsung phone (I have a Sony).
So please can you tell a good ROM smooth and stable for this phone? And also can you tell me how to flash it (noob guide because I don't know Samsung phones).
We don't want to try all ROM (I'm impressed, there are very many ).
Thanks in advance!
P.S.: Sorry for my bad English.

Here you will learn everything about flashing a custom ROM on a Samsung Galaxy S III I9300.
To choose your ROM, you can first of all decide if you want a Samsung-based or an AOSP-based ROM.
Another thing not mandatory but positive is to see that people are still using a ROM, so look in the I9300 Android Development and Original Development forums for active [ROM] threads.
Once you’ve chosen the one you want, be sure to read its thread carefully before flashing it.
Hope it helped!
I recommended this KitKat ROMs (stable,fast,smooth) (TOP for me)
Blekota Note 4 lite v4
Blekota S5 v11
QS-i9300 kitkat NJ1
Back to n00t v9.

Hello,
Can some one please answer whether I can install a ROM of another phone.
For example I have Galaxy S2 PLUS
can I install the Nexus 4 stock ROM ?
or any other STOCK rom (Not a custom ROM)

no, you can't
the possible way is porting
but note this, to port a rom to your device, the booth device much have same resolution of screen
for the guide to porting rom, search it on this forum or internet
Hello gentlemen, I have Galaxy S3 and I have there stock rom from samsung android version 4.3 (specifically i9300XXUGNA8) and I would like to try a MIUI rom. However I find guide only with downgrade on stock rom version I9300XXDLJ4 which is android 4.1.1. But I know that it used old EFS file version 1 and in my rom is EFS v2. So if I downgrade it, the telephone was not work - especially signal from operator. Does anyone have any advice or some guidance on how the stock Samsung rom to MIUI. Thanks for the advice. (and sorry for my english)

I've used the MIUI rom for s3, and trust me, it's really good. The only downside is that you have to downgrade to android version 4.2.2 which is CM based. The latest version is based on 4.2.2, not 4.1.1
You have to do this:
1) Root your s3 following a proper guide. There are plenty on the net. Just google it.
2) Install a custom recovery. I recommend TWRP or Philz Touch recovery.
3) Download the MIUI rom from their official website en.miui.com
4) Flash the rom using the recovery.
Done. Hope this helped

Hello there folks.
I checked some of the custom-roms here for a samsung galaxy s 3.
(Installed a C.M on moto g.... got it to 4.4 and then upgraded to 5.x and hardbricked it life is funny )
Can anyone tell me how to choose a Rom ? (there is a sheer number of roms to choose from)
They all seem nice I know that some come with KitKat and some come with 5.x.
Any recommendations for a stable Rom ?
Any recommendation for a Rom with a new OS (5.x) ? (even a less stable one )
And is it okay if I follow the instructions for installing a Rom from the official site of C.M ?
Any tips on how to backup ?
Here are the list of roms I found so far (there way too many)(open to new suggestions)
NamelessROM 2.1
RESURRECTION REMIX 5.4.8[CM12.1][OPTIMIZED]
JustArchi CyanogenMod 12.1 for i9300
Blekota Note 4 Lite ROM for Galaxy S3 (I9300)
Archidroid 2
temasek's UNOFFICIAL CM12.1 BUILDS
Thanks for answers and have a good day.

Make sure you have root and a custom recovery(like twrp) and take a backup(make sure you have a efs backup)
And before flashing do a wipe

With my personal experience I highly recommend this unofficial cm12.1 http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/development/cyanogenmod-12-1-t3345690. This is very stable, and the performances are very good
