Schoolsux:

so far I like this ROM very much:) everything just runnin smooooooooooooth!

One Q: I came from Omega and Siyah-kernel w ability to use Extweaks. They had the option of increasing the power when charging, thus being able to charge much faster. Is that possible to inject in this ROM?

Impressed so far!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
Yes :good:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
No idea, working fast here... check your router signal or maybie somone else is using bandwidth speed ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
Everyting is possible. I'll look into it tomorrow or whenever I have some time. Problably wont include it in base rom but can make a flashable.zip and put in extras secton for you to download from vikingxrom.com :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
I know right, really depends on where you are downloading from, wich time on day and how busy the download servers are.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] xmRipper:
It shows my baseband version as LH1. Isn't it supposed to be LH6?

Should I flash the LH6 modem manually?

I will offer a free fullspeed mirror for schoolsux in the next half hour. Will tell him via PN too.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] xanthrax:
Yes! Even better! Why so late guys? You're very welcome anyway! And I will repeat again, I've got nothing to do with Viking, I'm just impressed by his work as you all do!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mika83AC:
Okay, here the links mirroring the current VikingxRom Files with full speed:

http://mirror.divelop.de/vikingrom/VIKINGxROM_v7.zip

http://mirror.divelop.de/vikingrom/VIKINGxROM_v7_update_1.zip

I would recomend schoolsux to create md5 hashes for his files so that the people can trust the created mirrors by checking the md5's.

Best Rom I ever used ....one question is there any volume loud hack for this Rom? I am using wanam Rom before its head phone output is awesome so is there any volume boost for this Rom ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JJEgan:
If any of the numerous sound mods including VL work on JB then they will work on this rom .

Alternative as per VL thread modify your default gain file . Note their is an app that can do this from the phone GVMv1.02 .

anyone know the link to hacked stock email app that's working in this VIKINGxROM v7?

previously (on LI8 ROM), i'v tried the one from this thread : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1781664

but unfortunately that apk's not working :(

many thanks in advance :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Arsaw:
Using this rom giving me 12 hours usage and 3 hours 32 minutes on screen time before battery hitting 15%. 3G data is on all the way.

With the same setting, ICS rom last me 15hours usage and 4 hours 26 minutes on screen time before battery hitting 15%.

Not as good as ICS rom, but I'm happy with its battery performance.

Great rom. Thanks :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mika83AC:
What the hell are u doing all the time? ^^
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Arsaw:
Browsing, whatapps, gtalk, gmail, sms, about 40 minutes call, some games for 20minutes and flipping the home screen for no apparent reason :D
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mika83AC:
Perhaps you should think about enabling the energy saving mode or somethink like this ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Arsaw:
Nevermind. Is already good enough. :D

Bravia engine works well with this ROM. If any of you want it I can upload it as a flashable zip file. It makes a big difference in my opinion.

Can I request for a xloud zip.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] dsachdeva:
What does it improve if I may ask
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DSA:
Has ykkfive released his s3 port? Or have you ported it? Anything already out there doesn't work and is a placebo....this is because the files are not set up correctly and some are missing
[Galaxy S III Android Development] andlar123:
Primarily the contrast and enhanced colors. But it I feel it is not a placebo if we apply the lines in build.prop and not as a script redirecting output to build.prop. but again its my feeling that my eyes show me a difference. :o
[Galaxy S III Android Development] DSA:
lol, it takes a liiiitle bit more than adding a couple of lines to build.prop :rolleyes:

Read this and then google some more about how much work is needed
[Galaxy S III Android Development] melorib:
Tried again, but get errors when I try to delete RES and classes from systemUI to do my mods :confused:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] shahzaib.khan:
That file is not good it louds thee sound but it sucks and in wanam Rom there is no loud sound for a speaker there is only a good n best output for head jack
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
Added some more download locations, thanks guys!

If you want to try the rom but had problems with download earlier... now is the perfect time to try again.

Have a nice weekend everybody :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JJEgan:
I see NO sound mods listed on Wanam rom .

[Galaxy S III Android Development] F3nr1s:

thanks for the work
[Galaxy S III Android Development] godfrey2000:
Hi. First of all thank you for the great rom and spending time to bring us something different .

2nd..i have some questions...

1)This is the first rom that doesnt show correctly my GPS position... faster fix doesnt help... what is the problem here ? for me it is critical..( I came from Super Nexus Rom and everything worked like it should)

2) I didnt find google maps.. can you add them to addon folder on your site ?

3) What is the recommended kernel to use with this Rom.. battery life is important for me.

Hope you can answer all this :) Have a nice weekend.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] shahzaib.khan:
Ohh my goddd there is nooo any mod in wanams thread but the main Rom of wanam has a great quality of sound thats what I am telling since yesterday.....there is no any mod in wanams thread .....wanam jus modified his sound biniries and make it sound better alot...
[Galaxy S III Android Development] godfrey2000:
All problems fixed. Everything is working fine ;) Thank you very much
[Galaxy S III Android Development] xanthrax:
nice to see the first user with viking rom logo !
[Galaxy S III Android Development] nelly_boy:
Just wanted to say a big thank you. I don't know how you did it but this is the only Rom that allows me to access to my corporate email using the stock email app without the following

ICS stock Rom. - Encrypt device and external memory. 13 digit password every time I wanted to use my phone. :banghead:

JB - CM10 - "server is requesting security setting unsupported by device" forced to install ****y touchdown :banghead:

Samsung JB leak. Encrypt device and external memory. 13 digit password every time I wanted to use my phone. :banghead:

Your glorious ROM - no enforced encryption, no enforced 13 password. It just works. I ****ing love you x x x :D

THANK YOU THANK YOU

[Galaxy S III Android Development] JJEgan:
Even though Wanam does not mention this important fix in the changelog its not going to be hard to A test and B see what has been modified .

My tests show sound quality the same >>> default-gain.conf file adjusted output from 57 to 60 making basic output louder as per the volume fix sound louder hacks . Easy to edit this on Viking rom .

[Galaxy S III Android Development] melorib:
I am interested, does it work ok, can I adjust auto brightness levels, I like brighter than standard :confused:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
Did you do a full wipe coming from other rom? I hav eno problem with gps at all, works flawless!

Google maps is easily avaliable on the market.

Stock included kernel, for stability and best battery for now.

Have a nice weekend you too! :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] xanthrax:

[Galaxy S III Android Development] F3nr1s:
wanam made a separate zip of stock khernel http://netkups.com/?d=80555060d646e

i love this rom i install it with full wipe all is smooth i have a small isssu perhaps on my side . when i make a call with sliding in contact sometimes it just show a black screen and dont make the call . I try wipe again , new install , fix permission i always have this issue
[Galaxy S III Android Development] xanthrax:
hi mate ! i`ve got no problem with slide to call , just test it now , about wanam kernel is that stock or modified ? it`s written ... repacked ...

Distortion issue

Hi

Absolutely great Rom, Just one big issue the distortion on outgoing calls is really bad, anyone found a fix for this.

Sounds on music and everything else ok its just the phone.

Thank you
[Galaxy S III Android Development] F3nr1s:
no sorry i dont change khernel so dont need to try
[Galaxy S III Android Development] xanthrax:
alright ... i will

-=-=-

sound distorsion , there is a tweak here , haven`t try it though . be my guest !

-=-=-

bloody marry !!! i just flash the loud_volume_hack , my ear almost exploded !!!

-=-=-

wanam kernel boot succesfuly ... will see later
[Galaxy S III Android Development] xanthrax:
well ... the sound is louder with that tweak now ... the distortion is ... every now and then ... hard to say exactly but ... on call record , when listening the recorded call there is no distortion

-=-=-

TIP -=- when calling right after reboot the rec mode doesn`t work due to sd media scaning ... to prevent that you can use this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/...1bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5hZGR6Lm1lZGlhc2Nhbm5lciJd and even the boot will be faster
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JJEgan:
Thats just the default conf file found in System/etc and can be modified from root explorer or even before flashing the rom .

Headphones can be stepped up in this file from default 57 to 60 .

Very Good. Thanx

I have tried a few roms lately...Omega, CM10, Miui and some other. I must say that my nordic comrade has done a great job with this rom as far as I have tested it. I have used Viking a few days and my phone does not lag, its supersmooth and very fast indeed. I have not found any issues so far. Only thing is: I saw your Vikingx app when I booted, but have not seen it since. (I would like to change the toggles). Other than that...Great! Thanx for your work.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] xanthrax:
thanx mate ! you`re an expert on searching ! i`ll flash the default volume and play around with system/etc

i`m lazy , as usual trying to find easy ways :cool: ... thanx !
[Galaxy S III Android Development] xanthrax:
here you go mate ! put it back !
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
You change the toggles with the QuickPanel Settings app which is included in rom! :)

Awesome ROM (7.1)

Ok let me say i have been looking for a rom like this all over the place. I wanted a mostly stock rom without the samsung bloatware...tried loads of roms on the latest official jelly bean rom (LIB), but they all seemed to lag or stutter, all saying optimised ram bla bla bla...but just seemed to make it worse!!! Poor battery life when the screen was on and off, game stuttering...not going to name any names. Anyways, your rom was my last try at custom roms, before going back to stock...was getting sick and tired of flashing and reinstalling....and let me say 7.0 with 7.1 update, is AMAZING!!!! Really buttery smooth, no home button lag, great battery life so far, will report back once i have used it for over a week...again...you are amazing, really made my S3 awesome. Rarely touchwiz redraws, but i was looking at 6 tabs in the web browser all loading simultaneously, which i think 833mb of ram cant handle, and is unrealistic, but since then using my phone normally, no redraws...just awesome awesome rom :))
[Galaxy S III Android Development] xanthrax:
well said Prime ! your first realy good post !
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sermonth:
can you add the 2g/3g swich to quickpanel widgets? its very important for me and battery.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] xanthrax:
unfortunately not ... this is a AOKP feature
[Galaxy S III Android Development] melorib:
Installed, so far so good, no noticeable difference from WanamLite, other than having to delete a lot less apps every time I install :good:

THANKS
[Galaxy S III Android Development] mrbuzz1967:
giving this a try after being on omega for quite a while. the only thing I would like is s voice. can I use route explorer to extract it from another rom and place in this one?

thanks
[Galaxy S III Android Development] goose2515:
Hi everybody I love that Rom but have a small problem while in call speaker not the one on the back the front speaker sounds like is too loud in the meaning,I can hear mambrane vibrating,I know there are mods to make this way to be set up VERY LAUD but I didnt install any mods.Any one have issue like this thank you?

---------- Post added at 08:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:34 PM ----------

O i forgot to say that when I turn volume down I can still hear that vibration.I had no probs with ICS so its not a hardware problem.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] goose2515:
So no solition I reboot my system done wipe cache and dalvik fixed permisions.still same if I cant find solution will hsve to go back to ICS nooooo! Love that rom
[Galaxy S III Android Development] shahzaib.khan:
This is best Rom I have ever had.there is only one problem thats is sound.....head phone output is same as like default in wanam Rom the head phone oyt put was so greatt not just only loud quality was the Besttt and loud speaker is same as like default which is good I tried one file loud volumn hack but it will also increase sound of speaker which distorts alots .....I just need a headphone output loud and best quality can any one port wanam sound files and make a flashable zip?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] KingAzzA:
Try using poweramp

Mess with a few equalizer settings and it should be plenty loud
[Galaxy S III Android Development] shahzaib.khan:
Thats not the solution what I asked....im back to wanam Rom because I am a good music listener so I want a great n loud sound....

Anyways Viking Rom is the best till now.....
[Galaxy S III Android Development] rayarny:
And what is the reason that you don't use Siyah kernel with eargasm preset? Nothing can give better sound atm.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] shahzaib.khan:
I found a solution yayyyyyy ......I just extract default.grain file from wanam zip file and replace it to with Viking and hola the best quality sound in Viking Rom :D soo happy .......
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Kangburra:

By the way I can help u guyz by telling u what to do ....jus download wanam 3.7 and extract the zip file and then go to system/etc there is a file which have a name default_grain.conf copy that file and then delete that file from Viking etc folder and then paste it right there ...after that set permissions to rw.r.r ........done

And yeah dont start a song with a full volumn.....it is unexpectably high :D....and quality is also just awesum I have install the acid mod v2 also from theme section I dont see a very great difference but I got a dsp manager n walkman player also :D now my Rom is full completed I dont want any other Rom to test ......

Dont forget to reboot after copy pasting the file.....

I'm getting the same issue, when making calls the sound is distorted and muffled. Reboot didn't work, and might try reflashing I think.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] melorib:
When will we see CRT-OFF in JB ROMs, the only thing missing now :confused:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JJEgan:
Repeat apart from the increased output in default.gain file i see no improvement in sound quality in wanam rom over this rom .

>>>

I found a solution yayyyyyy ......I just extract default.grain file from wanam zip file and replace it to with Viking and hola the best quality sound in Viking Rom :D

All that does is increase out put level not quality .

But placebos work for some .

That file can be edited on the phone .

[Galaxy S III Android Development] lawtq:
Phew! I thought it was my phone getting a hardware problem cause I have the same distorted phone call sound problems with this rom!

Reboots, kernal changes, nothining helps. Can't bare the other rooms now, no offense, cause wanam and omega are great, so is dragon, but their roms just aren't as good, I experience lags. So back to ics till the problem is found with this rom.

JB was nothing special till I experienced Viking roms
[Galaxy S III Android Development] shahzaib.khan:
Dont know about yours but I have now a fantastic blasting sound again with this rom and now its a totally complete package for me ....my s3 headphone output is samee as like iPod.....also beats can give their best quality sound in there head phones...official default grain doesnt allow to release that much output which wanam Rom does.....so I dont know about any others I just shared which happen to me and I am very happy now
[Galaxy S III Android Development] JJEgan:
Well i don't require Blasting sound preferring quality over blast .Neither would i use beats phones .

Are you not using another sound mod as per your other posts .?????

WE NEED THE BEST KERNEL DEVELOPER FROM SG S2 , DORIMANX !
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
VIKINGxROM v7.2 released! :)

Tested Siyah kernel for v7.2 and it works, tho I wont add it by default for this rom.

Sure the voltage tweaks and sound volume output gains etc. are nice but I don't know how it affects the hardware of the phone in the long run.

I leave it up to the user to flash another kernel... stock kernel is stable and fast so I prefer it :)

Will add CRT off animation whenever some nice guy ports it for samsung jellybean, I have other things to do ;)

@snorfu there is always a way! 7.2 adds support for changin tracks on lockscreen with volume key. Sadly, Sporify doesn't work with that for now!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] xanthrax:
wow mate !!! quiet but efficient !!! i just flashed another rom yesterday ... trying to give a hand but ... waiting for battery to charge to flash back viking ... i`ve seen your post and ... even better !!!
