[SGSIII][Sprint] Android Central Rom and Kernel Library

[Skunkape60]

I am hosting this thread as sort of a one stop database for different ROMs and Kernels. I hope every one finds this a useful thread. I will do my best to keep this current and updated. I know most of you know what ROMs and Kernels are. While I'm far from an expert I thought I would perhaps give a very brief and simple explanation of each (were all noobs at one time) before listing what's available.

ROMs

ROMs hold the operating system, user interface, apps, wallpaper, and themes for your android device. They reside on "read only memory" thus the name ROM.

Some of the benefits of custom ROMs are:

1. They get updated more often and are usually more up to date than stock.
2. Improved performance and efficiency
3. Improved Battery life
4. Removal of bloatware
5. Custom themes and user interfaces
6. They're just plain cool !

Some drawbacks of custom ROMs are:

1. Installing custom ROMs generally involves having to perform a clean wipe. So be sure to back up often (Titanium Backup, My backup Pro to name a few) and NEVER forget your Nandroid (CWM Recovery Back up)
2. Custom ROMs may have bugs that cause your device to have issues
3. Voids the Manufacturer Warranty (just like rooting)! (You can always go back to stock unrooted state prior to turning phone in for warranty work)

Kernels:

The term kernel comes from Linux, which is kind of the forerunner of Android. All Android phones come with a kernel installed on them. It is the communication link between hardware and software. One of its most important functions is battery usage and cpu control. It is used to access the gps, wifi and radio. Pretty much everything your phone does runs through the kernel.

Just click on the rom or kernel below to take you to it's thread...

If you find a ROM or Kernel I don't have listed and want to add it, please PM me the link and I will add it.

I promise... This is the last....

 

[bauer2]

Good idea. Makes it easier to find them. I'm really looking forward to seeing what people come up with. I haven't tried any yet but there is one that looks interesting one they update it with the things they say there going to add I may have to give it a try.

But then again I like staying stock and just adding the mods I want.

Re: Android Central Rom and Kernal Library

I tried flashing Blazer ROM but when I rebooted it booted back into TouchWiz. What did I do wrong here?

You didn't do anything wrong...Blazer is a Touchwiz based ROM.

 

[footballbanker]

Re: Android Central Rom and Kernal Library

So it looks exactly the same as TouchWiz? I still have all the same useless apps and bloatware on my phone.

Look under your settings/About Phone...

Look near the bottom does it list under baseband or other areas Blazer ROM or something to that effect?

Yes it does. Thanks... I'm still wondering why some apps are in my app drawer that were supposed to be removed. Is that normal? For example SprintZone and AllSharePay to name a couple.

Also do I have to re-download my apps from the Play Store like Titanium?

There were a few apps that he put back with the latest update; the removal of them was causing some people issues.

 

[footballbanker]

Re: Android Central Rom and Kernal Library

So I shouldn't remove any apps that are still on the phone like flipboard music hub and the other crap?

 

[Skunkape60]

I tried flashing Blazer ROM but when I rebooted it booted back into TouchWiz. What did I do wrong here?

Yup... Uncle Louie is absolutely correct. If you want something different try Nova Launcher.

As for the roms above. I think Team Sonics Revolutionary rom deserves a look/see. It's very well done and smooth as silk.

He put many of the apps back but made them easy to remove.

Most should be safe to remove. If you're concerned, disable or freeze them for awhile and if it doesn't cause any issues they are probably safe to remove.

I'm having issues with blazer not allowing root access. When I open a root app I'm not even prompted to confirm or deny it just automatically denies it. I was able to grant superuser access but that's it. I've already tried setting su to grant root access by default.

I'm at work right now so can't dig it up but in the rom's thread they say that you will need to re flash superuser. Look in the thread and they post which one is working.
