For those of you with a Galaxy S3 GT-i9300, you are in luck as S5 Sensations ROM by XDA user Sunajkram23 brings you a real “S5 port” to your Galaxy S3.
Inside S5 Sensations, you will find goodies like native call recording, modded S5 launcher with theme support, Ultra Power Saving Mode (Yes get 10 days of battery life!), S5 lockscreen effects, quad multi-window, and much more.
S5 Sensations ROM also ships with practically every S5 app, which you can customize with its AROMA installer so you don’t end up with a ton of bloatware you don’t want.
And yes, you can even try the S5 camera (only still camera works, other features are broke) which works well for regular still photos. (But I do recommend using S3 camera for daily driving.) For themes, you will be able to get over 20+ themes and easily switch the look on your S3 to an LG G3, HTC Sense, Xperia, iOS, MIUI, and much more.

Hey
for everyone having issues with wifi connectivity on the Sensation Rom where you can only see a few networks and you cant connect to any of them. Here is a fix that I just used that worked perfectly, fixed the issue.

Drag the file to your SD card.Use Flashify app, run the zip file, it will take you to the cwm loader and ask if you want to install, say yes and then it will reboot and voilla! your wifi is working.
Thanks to user andjeomilosrdja on forum.xda-developers.com for providing this fix.

i want s3 stock camera (4.3-last frimwear) … please upload it
man ur videos are good i watch them since my galaxy s2 , never had problems till now
hello can some one give me some help ?
i have a samsung galaxy s3 i9300 , i have installed the sensation rom v7 before widout a problem but after flashing a AGNi kernel i cant boot the rom using any other kernel , i have tried , to do the full wipe , factory reset , wipe cache partition , format system basicly everything u should do , i even reformated my internal sd card , i have also tried diferent recoveries , twrp 2.7.1.0 and cwm recovery 6.0.46 wich worked fine when the room was booting with boeffla kernel , thats the one i want to use again because it was wroking better for me i just cant boot the room anymore with the boeffla kernel provided by the room file in aroma , it just boots with agni kernel why ?
Ps : i had an s1 an s2 and now i have the s3 , i always used costum roms and this is just weird for me , i know the recovery is separated from the kernel on the new phones but what am i doing wrong ? just wanna boot the sensation rom v7 again with the boeffla kernel
You have to reflash your phone with original samsung firmware using odin.after that u root and instal da s3 custom rom again…sure this will help you.
I cannot charge my phone turned off i.e. as soon as i plug the charger into my turned off phone,the phone comes back on. Everything else seems to be working o.k. Any chance of a fix?
I am having the same problem too.
Also my phone dialer doesn’t have back space, call & cancel icons. Instead it shows numbers 15,16 & 17 there respectively. Cannot make call thru dialer, need dial from the call log only, Any solution to fix this?
This is a feature of the current V7.0 build.
Auto Power ON… or something.
Best Bet is to review/comment on the XDA thread..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/development/rom-s5-sensation-rom-v3-1-t2759425
Since I was curious about this myself I’ve looked it up and it’s an issue with Android 4.4.2 itself – not this ROM.
If you’re worried about battery stats just fully recharge to reset.
Download the kernel zip for kitkat …. and install camera works…
And After, please?
Where can I find it?
I loved the rom but the camera doesn’t work :S
I fully wiped my i9300 and went through the Aroma installer, selecting Boeffla kernel.
I installed from my 64gb SD card, no hassle.
I’ve had great performance, no wifi problems, and the camera works better than it did with CarbonROM which I used for about a year. (and it got steadily worse for speed and freezes and camera crashes needing a reboot to fix; from many nightly dirty flashes – maybe it needed a wipe and reinstall!)
I’m also using Solo Launcher and so far, very happy with stability, speed and battery usage from S5Sensations V7, with the supplied Boeffla 6.1 Beta 4 kernel.
towards the end of the S5 sensation review you go back in to the settings where you can change the stuff that was installed with the rom (camera ,etc) could you list the Path to get back in please.
Hello, I have Samsung galaxy s3 i9300 (international). After installing S5 Sensation ROM 7.0 phone started to catch 4G LTE. Does it work on my phone?
Aleksandr,
Nope!
The i9300 has no 4G hardware!
The 4GLTE displayed on your handset is part of the S5 emulation.
It shows this instead of H+ (HSUPA) – but that’s what you’re probably using.
Max, just wanna say – this got me REALLY High on Android! xD
S5 sensations is super cool, TY.
but i have a problem and cant find a solution…
i have 2 cells, one with this rom working 100% and other with cam problem….. both are gt9300 made in brazil.
both with same files, same apps…
with other roms cam work fine…
Everything works until the “font” part… Where the heck is the option? I thought it was supposed to be under “Display”.
You can search it up in the options, yes- but when you tap it, it just takes you to the Display page devoid of the option.
Don’t know if that just slipped through the developer’s mind, but I hope there’s a fix to it. I really do.
The link doesnt work!!!
Call log force closed…fix that.

**************CAMERA FIX***************
OK For those of you who cant get the camera to work simply click or paste this link from Youtube into your browser and DL the file its a kernel thats missing to boot the camera up i believe kinda like an image of software?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U8obKmPrAh4
********* UPDATE********
DO NOT USE THIS ROM! Its very unstable! issues ive had:
1) Facebook chat keeps shutting down whilst typing message and loosing all the text
2) The performance is slow my phone kept hanging
3) Erratic behavior most of the time
4) the hands free con cant be shut down ive tried everything from Youtube videos to many forums and it simply cannot be shut down or stopped from working?
5) the camera didnt work at first then i found it was the Kernal was either missing or corrupt i then installed the correct one BUT the reverse camera crashes and you cant talk selfies what so ever!
This isnt stable in any form! i would say this was in ALPHA! not good!

This Rom is old.
I’d go for a 6.0.1 i9300 Rom, such as Resurrection Remix.
Much faster. Much more stable.
