In fact, the new GPU drivers in stock ROM 4.3 did boost up the graphics performance. My Asphalt 7 used to laggy on 4.1.2 or 4.2.2 but now smooth like butter on 4.3. I don't face any problem with Samsung keyboard so far but wake up to the lock screen is the real pain AND i lost Miracast support due to lack of HDCP support. Overall performance still ok provided disable all the dumb *smart* feature and S Voice.

I'm still thinking whether to flash it to CM10.2, any one did that? mind to share whether worth to go for it? coz a bit lazy to backup and flash again. Thanks.

Cm10.2 is buggy.
Only cm fanboys and those roms addict willing to flash it.
Check out xda thread for cm10.2 nightly.

Tons of complain.

Upgraded to official 4.3 with complete wipe on my S3 for a couple of days already. Haven't use heavily but the unlock screen can get quite annoying. When sleeping, can be quite unresponsive when waking up. Sometimes 2-3 seconds to wake up. Cannot swipe anywhere when I want to unlock. If accidently swipe the clock, it wouldn't unlock.

However, I do like that now my applications can be "move to SD Card".

Developer options is now hidden. To enable back follow the link below. It is meant for S4 but works in S3 as well.

can our multiwindow do drag and drop like note 3? now im on cm10, if can, maybe i revert back to sammy rom...

2am - 7am = 12% battery loss
Main culprits = android system, google search, google services.. hhmmm

Wow, yank is such a great dev.
He helped solved the android OS battery drain in aosp roms.

Now his kernel also fix lock screen delay for touch wiz 4.3.
Trivia, long ago s2, when leak 4.1 released, it has frozen lock screen issue. More serious than s3 delayed lock screen.
The symptom is press power to wake, lock screen not responsive at all. Need lock and unlock again only can swipe to unlock. Jeebo kernel fix it about a month later.

may i know between s3 2gb ram and s3 64gb internal storage (both available locally and at same price) which one would be better buy?

using slimrom... 4.3... only complain i have is the redraw of my nova...
temasek kernel latest version got some bug compare to previous... the charging power doesnt seem right...

Any news about 4.4 kit kat on our GT9300 ?

still early but should be getting since kit kat use very less RAM @@

Thats apply only for vanilla kit kat though, don't think thats apply for Samsung stock ROM. Samsung usually will put in some trash to consume more memory compare to vanilla ROM. Thats my personal thought

Not to mention, SGS3 will be more than 18 months old by the time they release the update, hence we may not be getting it after all.
This is the case for Samsung Galaxy Nexus, not that it is unable to support 4.4 Kitkat, but because it is more than 18 months old, Samsung (or Google?) decides not to update the phone any longer.
