The following post will take you through a comprehensive guide to update Galaxy S3 I9305 LTE to Android Marshmallow Custom ROMs including Resurrection Remix, CyanideL, CyanogenMod 13 and AICP ROM.
Galaxy S3 I9305 is the LTE variant of Samsung’s 2012 flagship device. Galaxy S3 was the device which gave Samsung the breakthrough that it needed to set its flagship lineup right. Samsung has been outdoing all other smartphone manufactures ever since it produced the Galaxy S3. Every single device that came after the Galaxy S3 was more successful than the S3. The S3 on the front had a 4.8-inch 720p display. It was powered up with Exynos 4412 Quad Core CPU and a RAM of 2 GB. The phone had 16 GB internal storage. 8 MP shooter at the back and a 2.1 MP shooter on the front. A 2100 mAh battery was packed inside and the phone ran on Android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean out of the box.
Galaxy S3’s official software support ended on Android 4.4.4 KitKat. Since then, Samsung never looked back and left the device all alone in the hands of custom ROM developers. Thankfully, the Galaxy S3 has been tasting all latest versions of Android which came out over the course of past 4 years. The new updates were made by means of custom ROMs. The recent iteration of Android, the Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow also made its way to the Galaxy S3 I9305 through various custom ROMs, and that’s what have for all of our beloved I9305 owners right here.
Before proceeding, we would like to let our users know that the ROMs we are going to cover are stable and are well tested by a huge number of users. These ROMs can be used as your daily driver. Having said that, since these are custom ROMs, we still can’t be sure of each and every single thing. Assuming that you are an Android power user(or going to be one if not right now) a few things crashing on your phone shouldn’t be a big deal. You can quickly revert back to your stock Android firmware if the custom ROMs do not fulfil your Android appetite.
