try 4.2.2...very stable
I am on 4.3......thinking to go back.
*
i'm using 4.2.2, recommend to come back

i made a video recording the laggyness in 4.3 aosp browser (aokp 4.3 nightly vs cm10.1)

but the lausy phone i borrow have such terrible recording lag
end up cant see the difference sweat.gif

other than browser, camera issue as well. and lastly after so long superbeam still dont work on s3 aosp 4.3
i email superbeam developer, other phone on 4.3 working, so its s3 camera bug.

4.3 issues not fixed even in stable release.
and its already end of development line. no hope already.

hopefully upcoming aosp 4.4 roms have less issues and worth using as daily driver

What is the best Extended battery for S3 but using the existing back cover. Sun 3000mAH is that OK.

the official 3000mah one is very good. you really get extra 42% boost in battery life.

if not changing back cover, buy another original samsung battery la.

how about your sms ?
I didn't use backup from google to backup apps and data
all the time use titanium backup, include sms, call log, etc ...
*
Got people still use SMS?
Long ago I already remove it from my home screen.
Using whatsapp, hangouts, fb chat already.

Nobody in my contact SMS anymore.

I updated the new Google now app.
The ui is more modern and can set reminder directly.

But my battery usage shows Google service usage is alot higher than usual.

try Cyanogenmod by temasek

In temasek, when using camera, swipe left to check last picture, the animation so extremely laggy.
Totally no butter.

Just wanna clarify, issit only samsung based roms (with stock camera) produce best picture quality?
*
i dont feel the difference. when view in pc macam same only.

in my opinion, samsung touch wiz gallery kindda sharpen the image and adjust the color abit when viewing, and prevent you from zooming 100% when viewing, it only zoom to about 80% of actual size when you double tap

aosp gallery zoom 100% size when double tap, hence you see more noise even on the same picture, giving you the 'feel' that aosp camera takes worst picture. how i notice this? i bluetooth a pic to my cousin s3, my pic looks abit sharpen and more vibrant on his screen.

thats just subjective. anyone dual boot tw & aosp here, try and see you feel the same or not.

almost every day release 1 update
no idea I didn't use the stock camera
flash the 4.3 camera with photosphere

Actually not just Temasek, aokp cm and slim bean so like that. The stock 4.3 camera too laggy animations.

4.3 ROMs improve alot already,
Now Tasker profiles with secure settings cn work
Superbeam able to work in landscape mode, portrait still have the bug but at least it's usable.
Camera issue resolved, no problem snap pic while zoom.

Only left minor graphic glitches when opening settings and in camera. Consistently getting drop frame when opening settings.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?...AJ.theme.kitkat

with this theme, you get all the kitkat looks, not bad.
slimbean have transparent nav bar option, so it looks really similar.
with nova launcher beta, even the app drawer icon looks the same.

tested out the 4.4 since installed, as long not using ART, everything is fine, can be used as daily drive, but do note that camera cant save ext SD for now, get 3rd party app
*
Thanks for sharing.

I'm currently using Slimbean 4.2
With the kitkat theme. Very satisfied.
The usual stable rom with least bugs compared to 4.3 and 4.4,
And the nice transparent status and nav bar.

for tight budget, buy old flagship
32gb S3, or nexus 4,

if budget allow, but
s4, note3, htc one etc

Poor RAM management (very difficult to multitask)

+1 to this. I felt it the moment I used touch wiz 4.3.
Almost every app gets killed in the background

Remove all boatyard apps and it'll help.
Especially stuff like clocks.
Greenify also helps once in a while.
*
I already did. Deleted all nonsense apps with titanium backup. And Greenify many user apps.
But it's still the same.
Very frequently, I notice my apps like browser, whatsapp, settings, loads as if it's loading for the first time. Many loading delays. Ram usage doesn't seem to be high, but background apps gets killed anyway.

WOW! samsung 4.3 development team may get fire from poor release, S4 also affected rclxub.gif

i have a feeling they just use cyanogenmod's work as base, and add touch wiz on top of it.

CM really have a huge influence on android custom rom. on 4.2, they were very active, resulting aokp to have 2 milestone build and slimbean to have 8 stable version

since CM become company, they really slowdown on progress. maybe many freelance developer dont want to work for cm anymore, like focal app being removed. they also busy making cm for the oppo N1.

frankly speaking, till today, i feel 4.3 aosp rom is not consistently smooth as 4.2.
everytime i try to use 4.3, after a day cant stant the inconsistent animations, then restore back to 4.2.
aokp have no milestone for 4.3, and slimbean only have 2 stable built.

from what you guys say about samsung 4.3 rom,
i think even the leak samsung 4.2 roms are more bugfree.
