Introducing MROM-d2att. Custom ROM for the Samsung Galaxy S III SGH-I747

Free Yourself and Feel the Difference

This is my attempt to build a stable, complete, and fully functional custom ROM for the Samsung Galaxy S III completely built from source code; MROM-d2att is built on top of Cyanogen ROM latest 4.2.2 (cm-10.1) source code, branched kernel, and my own blend of proprietary drivers. I recompiled all components to guarantee maximum efficiency and performance. Along the way, I realized that I needed things to work different for the d2att, so I also made some changes. If you like my work, consider a donation to my cause.

BUILT FROM SOURCE PROOF https://github.com/MROM. Every developer should provide proof that he is building from source.

MROM-d2att is entirely build from source. You will see the difference when you run it. Just to list a few features:
  • Entire ROM and Kernel are compiled and optimized with Linaro toolchain 4.7
  • Superior Performance. (User benchmarks have reported excellent performance)
  • Latest Kernel 3.4.x (http://www.kernel.org)
  • Fast Boot time
  • Multi-User Enabled
  • Excellent battery life
  • Contains all the most common tweaks
  • QuickPic gallery application

While I tried to maintain the main core small, size is not the main focus.

Few user comments:
Oleschuldad: this has been much more reliable then the other 4.2.2 roms I've flashed, no random reboots, no lags, or a2dp problems....
CQCmaster: The best Rom in terms of performance and battery life and stability.
JoeSchmoe22: I am happy to report that the BATTERY LIFE IS AMAZING!!! I am a heavy user and now my phone lasts all day! Also, the Rom is totally stable!
draco259: Maybe you need to add some bugs to get more comments
1heffer: This thing is rock solid, simple, beautiful, and FAST.
jimmur: I have tried a number of different ROM's and this one is the absolute best.

Work in progress!!!

Just wanted to clarify that MROM-d2att is work in progress. I stand behind my products and willing to listen to you for any suggestions. Feel free to comment anything you see that might need improvements.

If we work together, we could definitely make a great daily driver for some time to come...

Thanks for this ROM. However, I have a question that is similar to task's. What do you mean when you claim "all the common tweaks"? Could you give a detailed explanation?

He says "better battery than any other rom I have tested" which is a very valid way to put it. He's not saying it gets the best battery life, period. He's just mentioning his personal experiences. Don't start.

It's not misleading to give his own opinion about other roms that he's tried.

ROM is pretty nice. I don't really know what the difference between regular cm and this is though. What are the most common tweaks that is stated in the OP?

P.S. The theme is by DustinB right? Maybe you should credit him in the OP so people can search for his other works, which are magnificent as well.

Thanks for liking my ROM. The theme is from dustinb, he is given credit in the changelog on github... regarding the tweaks and stuff, that goes on how I build and assemble. The method has worked well on other devices, so it might work well for SGS3...

I am waiting for you guys to tell me how the rom runs and any optimizations you might want included in it.

I am pretty open for suggestions to make this a stable and reliable daily driver, but I rely on you guys to help me do so... as a testimony, my previous work speaks for itself.

Hope I answered your questions...

Is there supposed to be an 'Mrom settings' option in the settings menu because I can't see it, nor do I see a developer option.
Settings are embedded in the regular settings menu, as fas as developer and performance, you have enable by pushing 7 times Settngs->About Phone->Build Number.

Developer and Performance are not for everyone...
