I'm using Download mode to flash the newer leaked 4.2.2 using Odin, that's why I need that volume down button lulz. See how later, might drop by at Lowyat SC to check it out~

Guys. My baby blue s3 feel on the floor and cracked the screen.  Anyone knows how much to replace/repair the screen?

Used the kalaideng flip casing and this is what happens under a week. Should've stuck to my jelly case.
Leather flip casing no use. Mercury jelly case much better.
*
It's RM490 for the screen replacement. Should take 3 working days.

It's been such a long long time since I was last active here.

I've been using the new 4.2.2 (UFME7) leak for so long already, any new stock samsung leaks so far? biggrin.gif

Samsung is ditching 4.2.2 and going for 4.3 straight away.

Can't get it to install. Already put the file in Applications but to no avail.

How to move it to system? Can't find the directory
QUOTE
1) Rooted phone required
2)Push the apk to system/app and set permission rw-r--r--
3)Then reboot.

Looking to try out AOSP based Rom on the SIII. What do you guys suggest?

As I'm not too sure of how many there are and how good they are, these are the few that I know of:

1) Temasek
2) SuperNexus
3) SlimBean
4) Sentinel

Which offers the most features? And how accurate is this article?

http://www.androidnova.org/aosp-based-roms-for-galaxy-s3/

SlimBean rated no.1

from the article, I didn't try PACMAN, PA and slimbean
from the 4 list you stated, 3 and 4 didn't try
but I prefer use temasek cm 10.2
for supernexus, it still build 1, root should be not working since I dual boot it supersu claim no root was granted ==

Temasek is on 4.3 now right?

QUOTE(mtxx @ Sep 17 2013, 07:14 AM)
Frankly speaking all the aosp ROMs are very similar in terms of ui, speed, battery life. At least for me the difference is not very noticeable.

The more mods and features a rom have surely it'll be bigger in size, consumes more ram, have more frequent slowdowns, and higher risk to have more bugs compared to rom with less features.

Cyanogenmod is the most stable relatively speaking. With the least features and updated nightly. But it has too little features. Not my cup of tea

All in one rom like pacman and rootbox have every feature existed, but it feels too bloated.

Slimbean is my personal favorite because it's even more slim than Cyanogenmod. It remove alot of stock apps that no one use. Yet it add some important features from aokp. There is no paranoid android feature. So if u are a PA fan, stay away from Slimbean.
*
Thanks!

You mentioned 'there is no paranoid android feature', maybe I know what feature is that and what makes PA attractive?

p/s: Does SlimBean support 4.3 now?

Luckily I saw the change log before flash slimbean 4.3 stable build 1

exynos4 (i9100/n7000/i9300/n7100)
Mobile Data disconnects during Phone Call restors to normal state after the call.
Small arrows on data signal icon (status bar) for in and outgoing data stream do not show up
The icons camera scene mode are wrong labled but functional

What were they thinking. With bugs like this still consider stable version?
I never flash the beta version because of these issue. Never thought stable version also have this problem.

Better stick with the 4.2 stable built 8.

Ahhh those are annoying bugs!!

I always get Spigen SP because I know they are one of the best brands for SP. No rainbow effects and very durable Ultra Clear SP, only some scratches after almost 1 year using it.
