Root [Sprint/Cricket] want a clean android rom...

[onlotus]

I want to install a clean android rom like I just brought it home from the store without all the bulk. Where can I get one & how do I erase everything before I install it? So basically I just want to gut it and have it run an unbloated Android ROM. How would I go about doing this?

get cynaogenmod 10. Its pure AOKP so it doesnt have touchwiz, but there are tons of roms that do have it. A great "slimmed" down rom is slimrom

always make a nand in recovery first, factory reset, wipe caches first then flash away. Thats the beauty of being rooted, the freedom to choose!!!

There are FAR more than 31 flavors out there, see which one you like

The "peoples rom" is pretty unbloated as well. u can find it in the ROM list on this page. galaxyS3root.com is also i good place to check for info on all the new roms coming out.

I like CM I have it on my phone now it runs good. Just wondering if I can get more of a factory jelly bean without all the Sprint bloat.

slim is good, there is a deodexed stock rom out there somewhere in that xda thread i linked above

or, you could just get the stock rom with all the bloat and use titanium backup to uninstall all the crap you dont want
