[Q] Custom Rom - which one and does a Chance Maker sense

[odiad]

Dear all,

I am come from Sony mini phone to S3 mini. Flash roms on Sony mobile was quite easy with cwm.
Now on S3Mini I am a Newby. It would be interesting to have cm11 but main interest is a good battery life time. And in parallel Rom has to be stable.

Does battery life time will increase in case of custom Rom, compared with stock Rom?

And if yes - which Rom shall I chose?
Thanks for your advices

Regards Odiad

You flash roms on cwm for the s3 mini, so nothing else is different. You're going have to flash different roms and find one that works for you, battery-life is extremely subjective (i might get 24 hours and you might get 12 hours because you use it differently then I do).

Generally speaking threads like these are closed because what ROM i think is best, you might think is awful.

Here's a link to flash TWRP: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2678274

Generally speaking older ROMs tend to be more stable and bugfree as they had more work done on them.

From what I know there's

CM10.1, CM10.2 CM11, OMNIROM, PACROM, AOKP, CARBON, VANIR, SLIMROM and plenty more.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3-mini/orig-development check out those ROMs, and see if they fit your needs.

Thread closed as its a Best ROM thread.

OP there is no absolute "best" ROM - only the ROM that works best for you. Due to differences in how you use the device, what works best for other users may not work best for you and vice versa. My suggestion therefore is to try out some different ROM's and see which one you find the best for you.
