Root [Sprint/Cricket] Coming Aboard

[AARONONE]

Whats's up everyone, just purchased an S3 on Amazon (only $10) that is scheduled to arrive next week. I am going to root (of course) and wanted to see what the consensus is over here for ROM's/Kernels.

Based on what I have read, seems like venom and people's rom are popular touchwiz. I am coming from the gnex, so I am naturally inclined to aosp. Appreciate feedback on those too. Thanks.

Why would you insinuate Aaronone is trolling, based on what he paid for a phone? I picked up an S3 a couple months ago that was free, other than the 2 year contract that went with it, just curious on your rationale.

Not trolling? Did purchase it for $10 on Amazon with new contract . thanks for the ROM suggestions.

Welcome to android forums.
I would suggest vanilla root box paired with ktoonsez kt747.

AOSP: Carbon, RootBox, or Euroskank. Pair it with either KT or BMS kernel.

TW: MOAR, TPR (The People's ROM), or Freeza's stock MD4 build. Pair it with KT's kernel.
