I'm about to pull the trigger on a SCH-I815, which is of course 4G LTE capable. But I would like to have Jelly Bean on it.

Is there a stable Jelly Bean ROM available for the SCH-I815 which supports the 4G LTE data, wifi and gps?

Although there is no Jelly Bean, you might consider looking at the Ice Cream Sandwich ROM:

There are two things you can do to make this perform much closer to CM10.

One is to freeze unwanted stock apps using Titanium Backup.

The second is to tweak the kernel settings for better performance using "Pimp My Rom" or any other such tool (Thunderbolt, Adrenaline, etc). There is a huge difference in network performance such as web page load time, and download speed.

With these two changes, I have both LTE data, all the apps that CM10 would run, and almost as good performance.
