I'm on Synergy 118 and am wondering if any user could tell me their experience on it. Thinking of switching to cleanRom. Cosmetically is their even a difference?

Good to know man cause I seem to be getting some lag and bugs on Synergy. I think I'll give it the old collage try

+1 for CleanROM 5.0!

It's great! I've tried stock Jelly Bean and it's good too but I actually do like some of the TW features and CleanROM works great for me. Just waitin' for 4.2.1 to be part of it now :)

Rooted only about 2 weeks ago, deciding I'd had enough waiting for VZW to add their bloatware to release JB for the device. Installed CR4.5 and loved it, and when 5.0 came out recently I installed asap. Can tell the project butter is now in play and have really not found any glitches of note. I love the folder animations in this rom!

Shoot, I got the 'modified system' screen when I flashed it (yes, my bootloader was unlocked).

Tried using my Mobile Hotspot option for the first time this morning and it didn't work. I downloaded a VZW sign in app to be able to use their 'my mobile account' information, so is there something I missed about using the hotspot with a rooted device?

Same problem here but the VZW sign in app won't let me sign in so I can't use the my mobile app. I can use it if I use nova so its kinda working just not in TW.

I'm running cleanrom 5.0 and it's good overall, however I've noticed lately that the battery life is atrocious. I didn't wipe the davlik cache before I flashed the rom a couple days ago. Could that be the reason?

I have pretty good battery life on Clean Rom, so I doubt the rom itself is the issue. For example, right now I am at 77% after 11 hours and 1 hour of screen time.

CleanRom 5 has been great for me but if you're thinking about flashing you might want to wait a few days. The dev has stated he will have version 6 out soon (based on the latest vzw leak).

CR 5.5 is now out, based on new leak. CR 5.0 is running so well I doubt I'll flash it (or at least I'll wait to see if there's a worth while reason to). Doubt you could go wrong with either one.

Battery life has been phenominal. Went to a football game this past sunday with 4 friends, all of which had iPhones. We were all using our phones all day, but by the time the game ended, they all had 10% or less battery remaining...I had 60%, and was able to stream Red Zone channel via NFL Mobile app as we waited to leave the parking lot, then pulled up Google maps to help us find a shorter route home. Every one of them was like, "Wow...that makes my iPhone look like a piece of junk". Definitely owe just a little bit of that to Clean Rom and how smooth it runs.

Could you provide a link for the new clean rom? And on a scale from 1-10 how difficult is it to get running?

Here is the link: [ROM][12/11] - CleanROM 5.5.1 -★| Redefining Performance and Stability (Again)! |★- - xda-developers

Your second question is much harder to answer...because we don't know your starting point. Are you rooted? Familiar with rooting and installing ROMs?

CleanROM is Touchwiz based and built off the S3 JellyBean leak; it also has an Aroma installer -- therefore compared to other ROMs it's very easy to get running. If you're asking "Is it easy for someone with no knowlege of rooting or installing ROMs to do?", then that's a different story (and all relative to your comfort level of tinkering with "computer stuff").
