Thanks, i tried that but no sucess, yea jb dosnt support flash but on wanams jb for example it showed the image of the flash content, this rom says page cannot be displayed
[Galaxy S III Android Development] tupac19861013:
Guys this ROM is soo awesome, and i'm loving it, this is indeed the best JB ROM ever built up to now, but sadly this calling issue still persists.

I tried my best to isolate the issue, but i couldn't so, (but with my previous experience i had with Call Rec mod i think it's the culprit) if possible can our great dev schoolsux could make a flash-able zip to remove that mod, i really appreciate it and would be an ideal solution to all the people who gets this crazy distorted call issue.

Thanks in advance to the dev....!!! :)

If you could post that updated zip with the call rec mod that would be ideal and much appreciated...!!! :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] winbytrick:
I'm sure that your browser does not support flash neither; try light browser or firefox. I have my flash played without a problem
[Galaxy S III Android Development] huuub:
Call distortion is a major issue. I have it in more than 50% of my calls. It is clearly the most important bug on the phone.

A pitty but still the most important part of my phone is being able to make calls! :(
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mika83AC:
Perhaps you should open a new thread in the SG3 general section so that we can find out if this is a rom specific problem or a general SG3 problem.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] huuub:
I can only say, never had it on Wanam (and used Wanam for months)... After 2 or 3 calls on Viking I had it. Sooooo.... I guess...

Remove Call Recording and you may clear the phone distortion .

Hi, can i use Stock_Messaging_HTC_Smileys.zip to XXDLIB rom?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] huuub:
I took SecPhone.apk from Wanam's latest ( Which does not have the issue) and put in the latest Viking update and flashed. Cleared cache/Dalvik cache... Rebooted...

Dit NOT help...

Now how to disable the call recording?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cink40:
Take the SecPhone.apk from stock deodexed Rom (in general section you have a few of those). I have done that and i do not have the problem with sound anymore. And obviously i do not have recording option anymore, but i never use that...

@ Schoolsux: apparently, quite a few users have a problem with phone sound with SecPhone.apk with recording option. Maybe you will consider to use SecPhone.apk without that option or at least to prepar .zip without that option?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cybermungo:
Can you post your used .apk please.

I'll try to push it and set permissions. ..

This might be too late, this is from the stock DLIB ROM.

i'm really enjoying this rom but would like svoice. does anyone have the latest version in zip file for me? or if not could someone tell me which files I need to take out of another rom??

thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] huuub:
Really man, I read this now after retrying and using the deoxed one from stock ROM. Which doesn't help. Don't bother guy's.

Schoolsux? Could you please acknowledge the problem? And if you can/are going to fix this in a near future? It makes calling quite impossible for me :(.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] amitoberoi:
i`ve got the apk ! tested right now ! i will upload it soon on my dropbox ! viking man you can take it for your vk files in case you don`t have it !

voicetalk.apk

The above svoice was posted by xanthrax when i needed it. Its the latest official version, say thanks to xanthrax.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] huuub:
Did you test? I am quite sure it won't work!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] mrbuzz1967:
many thanks although I don't think this is the latest one. it doesn't have the command for apps option.

thanks anyway.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Kangburra:
No, I can't test it, but it is the original apk after deodexing from DLIB.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
I have no problem at all with the call distortion users describe. Made several calls and ansvered incoming plus recorded some with no sound problem. I need to collect more info about the problem I don't even recognize myself. Does it happen all the time? Any extra mods you have installed? Are you using the stock kernel provided with vikingxrom? Do you have this problem with other XXDLIB rom? Since what version of vikingxrom did this problem show up? Did you do a full wipe?

Sorry to hear about this problem!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] amitoberoi:
Are u sure. Try this

Open svoice, open settings by tapping on the left soft button and then tapping settings and voice cmd settings are there. If not i have another version i will upload for u.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cink40:

Hello schoolsux,

I've seen many forums and you, Indie and Wanam are developers who are so kind to noobs like me. No arrogant replies and always willing to help. I don't want to belittle others but I'm giving praise where its due.

Keep up the attitude mate.

Thanks.

I picked this up myself for $0.25. I am an avid APEX user but am seriously impressed with how smooth and really really fast this launcher is.

I also have it installed on my SGT 10.1 running INFAMOUS 2.0 ROM and Yoda 2.1 Kernel O/C to 1600. With Nova it absolutely flies...light speed.:good:

Also, updated to 7.2 yesterday and have heavily themed using Rabu's Mods and themes and have no issues at all that anyone is reporting here. No distortion, no FC of any kind. I did full wipe when coming from 6 to 7 and could not be happier with Viking.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] tupac19861013:
Good to see that you are looking towards the people who are having this issue, it's a great quality of a developer.

Finally since you've wanted to know more details about this problem.

This started happening for me from v7 onwards and it did continued even in v7.1 and v7.2

This doesn't happen all the time, neither this doesn't happen all the time. randomly this starts to happen and goes away the same.

Finally i've personally tested wanam's latest rom and check rom and they never had this issue.

Regarding mods, except for the mods that are coming in the rom, i just don't use anything else. but sometimes i might use kernal's which is in JB still there isn't a kernel for me better than stock. :D

Finally i would say even i have tried wanam and check rom personally this is the far most smoothest and fastest JB rom currently i have experienced, and that's the only reason and the most valuable reason i stay with your rom even though it's killing me with this distortion issue. :(

All in all thanks a lot for the effort for trying to fix this issue....!!! :)

@schoolsux - BTW i tried your fix, sadly it didn't fix it....!!! :(
[Galaxy S III Android Development] strix75:
Working Great for me.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] huuub:
I completely share your opinion man! It is the smoothest around but the fix didn't help.

I did a FULL wipe then installed 7 and 7.1 and 7.2... I use your kernel included.

I have it always when dialing my number to work. I have it already when ik is dialing out. The tone is already distorted.

I am with Telenet (wihich uses the Mobistar network in Belgium). Never had it on Wanams.

Good luck with it!!! Wil PM you this too!

Hi schoolsux

short question

is it possible to include OTA into this Rom.

i tink this would be very helpfully to update this rom to the new version when you release a new one. :D

i know that we have VxR but its not the same.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] huuub:
I have it every call now I believe :(. have to switch untill this issue is solved :(.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mika83AC:
Is it gone when you restart your Phone and then gets worser again?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] huuub:
No it is there always at the same level. In every call...

Euuuhmmmm I did a full wipe, installed 7.0, only installed titanium and I have it again????

What is this???

---------- Post added at 05:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:22 PM ----------

Again did full wipe and installed wanams latest. I did not have the issue.

Then I installed Titanium Backup and restored my ID (for the apps).

I called. And did have the distortion...

Will repeat the proc. when I have time to verify if this really has something to do with it.

BUT it seems as I am having it now with Wanams, so it is NOT Rom related?!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] F3nr1s:
have you tried to removed the call rec mod ? for see if that change something
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
You used Titanium restore before or after reporting this call distortion problem?

After a Titanium restore, its perfectly logical if you may have call distortions and other problems ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] strix75:
I can not upload images with Facebook, anyone else have this issue?

[Galaxy S III Android Development] tupac19861013:
@school sux - I did through testing about your titanium backup logic for the call distortion problem, sadly it doesn't appear to be the case and here are the results of tests that i did followed. :(

Test 1 - Installed Wanams V3.7 without Titanium Backup Restore - It didn't happend

Test 2 - Installed VIKINGxROM V7 without Titanium Backup Restore - It did happened

Test 3 - Installed Wanams V3.7 with Titanium Backup Restore - It didn't happend

Test 4 - Installed VIKINGxROM V7 with Titanium Backup Restore - It did happened

Test 5 - Installed CheckROM V5.5 with Titanium Backup Restore - It didn't happened

NOTE : Titanium Backup Restore is not for system apps.

Sadly as with my testing i don't think it's related to Titanium Backup restore, so the culprit is somewhere else.

As I told you early this gets worse and worse and sadly for now I have to move on to wanam's, but if you want I'm always there to restore my backup and do testing with it for you to make this ROM gets resolved with this issue....!!! :)

I know it's hard for you to solve since this doesn't happen to you, and I really really appreciate that you are trying something to get this resolved.....!!! :)

Back on Wanam for the moment too.

After yesterday doing a full wipe and installing 7.0 and had it the first call... Didn't touch anything :s.

So installed wanam back, no problem.

Installed Titanium, no problem, restored all apps, no problem.

So, for the moment it doesn't happen on wanam. Will make some other tests when I have time!

This is the fastest Rom around and I have no clue why I have the distortion on a clean clean, very clean install :(
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mika83AC:
As mentioned in you "call distortion" thread i think it could be an issue with the "strip down" of the original sammy rom. That would explain you don't get this issue on other roms. Perhaps there is any system app removed which should not have been removed. But this didn't explain why other users don't get the issue ...:confused:

Does it make any difference for those with call distortion if you enable screen lock sound?

(Try to enable it and reboot)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Steelhog:
I have been on Viking for a few weeks now and have had no issues whatsoever on the leaked JB or official. No FC's no distortion and battery life is as good or better than any ROM I have tried. I did full wipe from 6 to 7, and have apps reinstalled from playstore and some from Ti backups. I am running pretty much all of Rabu's themes, centre clock, blue icons, status icons, notification bar,battery gauge, custom notification background and close button, etc etc.

No issues. I have been trialing Nova prime for the last couple of days after using nothing but APEX since I got the S3, it is amazingly slick. ROM is fast,fluid and rock solid. :good:

EDIT. I do not have lockscreen sound enabled and I am using the included kernel.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] MasterThiefGarrett:
Those on Phenomenal kernel, do you use medium or extreme?

I know extreme isn't stable for everyone... medium usually isn't a problem :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] grafwasserrutsche:
I'm using medium for two days now and the batterylife is stunning. Everything is still rock stable with no issues so far. Extreme didn't work for me, got some random reboots.
