hi guys first time flasher here and i chose this rom. I have some questions for you guys

What are some benefits you guys saw after going from stock to this rom?
I've done a lot with the stock already. I got the swift key, debloated, zipaligned, v6 supercharged etc etc.
I want to see if theres a difference.

Since its my first time flashing i was wondering
1) how do I get my
a) Contacts back

edit: seems like from what i've read, sync or import/export
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1480954

b) text messages
Edit2: Looks like I need an external app?
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1646786
Edit3: yep....that's all i could find.....

c) settings back

I went from d2can to d2att btw.

2) how do i get all my apps back, this current tibu is not allowing me to install my tibu, and i do not want to click install on everyone single app.

I just want to get it back to how i had it set up with stock. but with the benefits of ariel?
Any ideas
TIA!! :)

If you are going from ICS, to ICS, you could go into your custom recovery, and restore only the data from your previous (ICS) backup....the one that had all the messages and setting and home screens just like you like them. In TWRP just untick everything except data in the restore menu and restore :profit: In CWM I think you have to go to advanced, restore...and find where you restore from backup and only restore the data. This works for JB to JB as well. Never cross restore data this way...(ICS to JB, or JB to ICS) as it will not work properly.
Happy trails.

Thanks.
Hey what benefits did you gain from Ariel? What did u like about it?
I tried it for a bit and notice no real diff from my modded stock
Also I notice people flashing for gapps for roms that don't have it. I know this one has it. But why can tibu backup and restore. Gapps?

Gapps is usually flashed on 4.2.1 roms. Some will work on lower (4.1.2 and older) builds but some won't. I'll restore from titanium backup if I downgrade but some apps are optimized for the more recent operating system.

I've been holding my breath hoping for a release but nottach has moved on to the lg optimus g quad core phone. So its not likely that a update will be coming. On the bright side he left us with the most stable and usable build I have used on my s3 to date and I've tried all the big name builds out there all are very good but Ariel is the nicest I've used since I've rooted. :D

If your looking for a nice app to restore other app data and apps themselves I've been happy with ROM toolbox pro it costs money in the app store but is worth it to me. He has a free version give it a try in free u can't change your boot animation but it explains the app very well. I don't even use titanium backup anymore. When u clear data factory reset you will have to redownload ROM toolbox pro but after u do u can click app manager and restore all the apps u backed up before u flashed your new ROM. Hope this helps. :)

    Intro:
    First port of JKay Framework to AT&T Galaxy S3.
    First JKay port to any device by anyone other than JKay, that I know of.
    All MODs were done by me except for those that contain a credit in features list.
    I would like to thank the guys here at XDA who have helped me acclimate to the Samsung way of doing things.
    If you like this ROM please rate it and click Thanks.
    If you really like this ROM please consider donating.

    Edit (10/01): JKay Framework now available in 3rd post.

    Reboot into recovery.
    If coming from a Non-TouchWiz ROM, Perform a factory reset in recovery.
    Flash Zip via Recovery

    Follow directions in Aroma installer, choosing desired setup.
    After installation completes reboot, unless you want to flash other CWMs.

    Hold the power button for 10 seconds and release when screen turns off.
    Wait ~5 seconds and hold the power button after the device vibrates,

    Once back in Recovery.
    Enter 'Mounts and Storage'.

    Google Wallet Fix: wallet-sgs3-att_tmo-fix.zip
    Thanks to playboy71322 for pointing out this fix for the dreaded [insecure element] issue which occurs if you forget to reset your Wallet before changing ROMs.
    Just flash the zip, reboot, clear data for Wallet, reboot, and login to Wallet again.

    Just wanted to stop by and say thanks for all the work you've put into this rom. It truly is incredible. I think it's kind of insane that neither you or JKay are recognized. Not saying either of you care. The work you 2 have done and continue to do speaks for itself. Just sayin:good:

    I don't take it personal since this is the internet and all, but I applied long, long ago for recognized status and I never heard back. Which is funny because whenever I donate to XDA I get a personalized Thank You. I've donated a couple times.
    I don't really mind, it's just disheartening to see some noob who has made a single theme and is recognized.
    I've been on XDA way before Android. When WinMo was the bees knees.
    But recognized or not, I'll keep releasing my ROMs because of community.
    That's what Android's purpose is, one for all.
    I'd like to thank anybody who has given to our community without asking anything in return, including recognition, ahem, talking to you cheesy dev groups...
    Long live Android,
