Hi, welcome to CapRom Turbo. The Turbo in the name is a street fighter 2 reference, as my Amaze ROM was CE, "Turbo" is the just next logical step in the nomenclature.

This is really a side hobby for me as I know this is derivative work. Please consider donating to the real devs! This ROM is just for fun until the real roms we're all waiting for are released.

Video: http://youtu.be/TeDXh9KaOZI << This is video of my Amaze ROM and not the SGS3 ROM but the installer looks the same.

Features - Customizable. You control your options.

Install options:
  • Launchers: Apex / Touchwiz / Trebuchet
  • AOSP replacements for Samsung apps (calculator, calendar, mail, MMS)
  • V6 Supercharger
  • ES File Explorer
  • Titanium Backup
  • Re-Bloat/reinstall some apps
  • Toggle2G to help with battery savings.
  • Battery % optional
Community:

Tell me what you guys want to see or add, and I will try my best, if appropriate, to accommodate your requests. Also, tell me what works, what doesn't, what is good, what isn't.

Notes:

  • I don't make any warranty as to how this will work for non Tmobile phones, so please don't inquire about it.
  • I highly recommend RomanBB's Adama 3 kernel. I'd include it but i am having problems with the kernel installation.
  • A kernel is not included, but you can install one immediately after the AROMA installer has completed its run.

Known Issues:

-Toggle2g requires root access and the phone process may occasionally stop. Just grant it access / hit wait.

So far so good. I'd like to see more things swapped out for their AOSP counterparts. That's all I'd really want if you don't mind adding in the next release. I haven't come across any problems as of yet but I did just flash it so only time will tell. Thanks though :D Glad to see some touchwiz crap gone.

Nice Work!

I love the New ROM - the installer is very nice and I love all the options you offer - couple of odd things occurred - I opted to use the Touchwiz launcher - when i tried to change wall paper for home and lock screen - the only wallpapers you could choose for the Lock Screen were from the canned group of wall papers that come with the rom - on other roms and stock you can choose lock screen wallpaper from Gallery - it does let you choose home screen wall paper from other sources besides the stock wall paper - (I wonder did my choice of not wanting LIve Wall Papers effect this in some way?)

I also miss the Visual Voice Mail Ap - I was able to pull it from the redruM Rom with Root Explorer and push it into the Ap folder so no big deal

Thanks for the feedback, i'll look into the wallpaper issue.

As for VVM, i opted to remove it because it is a free download from the Playstore.

I've been rooting since the g1 came out , and I'm here to tell you your installer is sick. That is the best ever. So far this Rom is rocking.

    Still loving the ROM, but I installed with Apex and would like to go back to TW. Is there a simple way to switch back (ie flashable) or would a dalvik and cache wipe and reinstall suffice or do I have to do a complete wipe? In which case I'll just leave it. Thanks!

    You can just dalvik and cache and redo a flash and pick what you want again. Ive done it plenty of times with this rom without a full wipe and everything worked ok....no need to restart everything.

    Thanks for the rom, liking it. If anybody wants, Ive attached the mms with dark background. Use root explorer to copy to system/app, then change permissions
