Looking for a fast and stable custom ROM based on Android 5.1.1 for your AT&T or T-Mobile Galaxy S3?
If so, check out the latest Dirty Unicorns ROM, which is an excellent custom ROM based on the latest Android 5.1.1 and brings you a high level of great customizations. Camera works great out of the box (I recommend the Google Camera on Play Store so you get Panorama, Lens Blur, and PhotoSphere modes) along with excellent navigation customization where you can customize all of your buttons (including Home, Back, and Menu buttons with short, long, and double-press) or even disable them altogether and go with soft navigation buttons, which you can also customize with your favorite shortcuts.
Of course, that’s not all and you will be able to fully customize your status bar, add weather widgets on lockscreen/status bar, change LCD density, and much more. All of these tweaks can be found under Dirty Tweaks in Settings.
For performance, you won’t get any better than this as Dirty Unicorns brings you all the performance improvements of Android 5.1.1 (30% faster than KitKat) and much much more. Overall, this is an excellent custom ROM to get you up to speed with Android’s latest improvements along with custom options provided by open source ROM developers so definitely give this ROM a go this week(end) and do let me know what you think!
