Root [T-Mobile] Which rom u prefer?

Is darthstalker stable any bugs looks like is good to go is the dev for that rom still around I think the thread is closed.

Check out the i9505 section of xda. International roms always get updates first so their roms are based on the latest firmwares. We can flash them and then flash a tmobile kernel and you're good. Omega or the legends are just two good ones. Or anything built off mga.
Make sure you don't flash any i9500 roms!! They are international with different cpu than ours! You will brick!

Never had a problem with Darthstalker. Its like a smoother, faster stock rom. Unfortunately the dev hasn't been around in weeks and a mod locked it until/if the dev returns.

The only problem is if you need wifi calling. You will only get that with Tmo roms.

Yeah kinda deciding, looking around, enjoying stock for awhile. I always end up rooting my phones so it's not if I will root it, its when.
