Been trying the RP this weekend, i will wait for official release , its pretty laggy. Back to v6 for me. Good work.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] auralzx:
I'm not sure what you've removed from the ROM, but Button Savior used to have smooth animations in earlier versions of VikingROM/Way, but now it doesn't. Maybe it's a animations/rendering thing?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
What exactly is "Button Savior"? ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] auralzx:
This is Button Savior

Here's a video to show what I'm talking about, HD is best.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
Ohh, I get it :) I previously tried one app with similar function. I think is has something to do with the app itself and Android 4.2 / Samsung firmware leak - but I could be wrong, the other phone is running CM10.1 Android 4.2 right? As you know v7 RP is based on a leak however so random problems is expected! :angel:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
Something to dribble over: Oppo Find 5 along with the SGS4 announcement in New Yord 14th March!

Enjoy :)

As I also am a sneaky fan of MIUI, I love to see the MIUI inspired interface Find 5 have! Woulden't be suprised if they've co-worked with the MIUI team... ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] auralzx:
But dude, I'm running v6 not 4.2 :/
[Galaxy S III Android Development] djshorty:
anyone?

sorry for quoting myself
[Galaxy S III Android Development] F3nr1s:
Not in 4.2.1 for now
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
Oh I misunderstood, you never mentioned version so I assumed you were trying the latest one!

Anyway, no - I haven't really removed anything comprared to earlier versions or changed and standards exept replacing stock browser with Chrome one. So its strange buddy... I'm out of guesses. ;)

EDIT: Checked out the app, it doesn't animate on v7 RP either. I think the updated Samsung android framwork messes up the animation. You should ask the dev. to update the app or pick another one - big parts of the app still have Gingerbread roots! :P
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
Thanks! :)

In v7 RP 4.2.1 toggles can't be changed.

In v6 they can via Settings > Display!

I think Samsung will add this in final 4.2 but theres no way to guarantee this.

Re: [ROM][27Feb][MB3] ¤¤ VikingWay v7 RP ¤¤ The Smooth, Clean & Epic Way!

Great rom fast stable and the response speed is soooooo awesome

If i installed apex launcher will it be fast as before or not ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
Galaxy S4. See picture!

More screen space - less border, thinner design, 1080p amoled, pretty much same ugly UI design - I love it!

How is this relevant to VikingWay? Well, Samsung officially said that many of the new software goodies from the S4 will be brought to the S3. Some not due to hardware limitations. Anyway, awesome that Samsung will keep updating S3 for many months to come!

Galaxy S4 runs 4.2.2 out of the box, thats really up to date! I hope the S3 will get the this new content in the 4.2.2 update, but I doubt they will add the S4 goodies that fast... they will probably stay S4 exclusive for a while.

"Stay tuned 4 the next VikingWay" ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
YouTube SGS4 quick hands on: Here!

For example you can see the statusbar background is transparent and the statusbar icons are white. Plus the toggles have a edit button. Pheew! :)

In Galaxy S3 MB3 leak theres several clues & changes that indicates next update is on its way to bring some of the new S4 changes to our SGS3!

Now its time for me to log out from here before the beer takes over and make everything crazy :cowboy:

Have a nice weekend everybody!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sermonth:
when i see the GS4 first thing i think is vikinway balloons wallpaper :) samsung inspired from you :cool:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] tsw_sweden:
More interesting things.

"But there is more according to the first pre-list, Samsung will only update 5 devices to Android 5.0, which is not yet announced by Google but is expected to be announced at the upcoming Google IO. The devices which will be getting the Android 5.0 update are the Galaxy S III, Galaxy S4, Note II, Note 8.0 and Note 10.1.

Re: [ROM][27Feb][MB3] ¤¤ VikingWay v7 RP ¤¤ The Smooth, Clean & Epic Way!

So when is the new version coming?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] boomboomer:
Probably when it's ready, 4.2 isn't even a stable stock ROM yet.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] leonclement:
Any chance on a MB5 version? This would be a very good base :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] auralzx:
Yup, never hurts to have the latest bugfixes and stuff from Samsung.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
Finally, wondered when a note/memo app by Google would show up :) Google Keep!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Theshawty:
Hmm. On Omega currently, but seriously considering flashing this rom. (V6, then because the leak is horrid)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
Sitting on a solid MB5 based VikingWay build. Maybie call it v7 and let v8 be 4.2.x? What do you guys think? Pretty long since last update... ;)

It has a few changes, some size reduction and some fine tuning but comprared but is more or less like v6. :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] leonclement:
Sounds very good :) any chance you could also make a flashable zip for it to disable scrolling cache?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Theshawty:
Sure, go ahead. :D

Re: [ROM][27Feb][MB3] ¤¤ VikingWay v7 RP ¤¤ The Smooth, Clean & Epic Way!

:thumbup:

Sent from my GT-I9300
[Galaxy S III Android Development] boomboomer:
Entirely up to you, your work is gratefully received - but I'm of the opinion that v6 isn't broken so doesn't really need any fixing.

I'd hold off firming up on 4.2 as a valid version of viking until Samsung actually releases it somewhere as an OTA update. I suspect we have a few more 4.1 updates to come before they go over to 4.2.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
VikingWay v7 out!

v7 is the last VikingWay based on 4.1.2. VikingWay v8 WILL BE Android 4.2 based and if it takes months for Samsung to release it I will wait months!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Theshawty:
Has anything changed from v6 besides the base?

Re: [ROM][22Mar][MB5][371mb] ¤¤ VikingWay v7 ¤¤ The Smooth, Clean & Epic Way!

Long time mate

Downloading....

Thanks
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Theshawty:
Btw, scanning the /system/app folder, I'm noticing a lot of junk, dunno why you keep it? I'm talking about stuff like:

The drbin file

The mcRegistry folder

FmmDM.apk

FmmDS.apk (this and FmmDM are firmware upgrade related packages)

PreloadInstaller (installs the preload partition)

PartnerBookmarksProvider

I respect if you want to keep things near stock, but with custom roms, I doubt anyone will use the following stuff, though. Just pointing it out. :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
I prior hunting bigger files and I'm also careful with removing some apps when I'm not sure about what they will affect. Of course everyone is free to report useless files found in the rom that I can investigate and add more to my delete script :)

Thanks for the info, will have a look at these apk's :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] svetloslav:
Maybe you can pull out v7 for a while until the proper investigation and deletion of mentioned files is completed. As a result there will be a more notorious differentiation between v6 and v7 for the records as well. I mean there is no real hurry for v7 as it seems Samsung will take no less than 2-3 months before SLOWLY starting to propagate 4.2 to the S3.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] boomboomer:
v7 working very well here, I notice much more of the Samsung bloat has gone - so fewer things to freeze in titanium. It even had the right modem for me included!

The only odd thing I've noticed, which I doubt is ROM related, is the exclamation mark during boot loader phase is now visible on every boot - before it only appeared when I booted into recovery. Is that because I haven't wiped and flashed the system partition completely until now, since I installed the ELLA boot loader?

I'm not in any real hurry for 4.2, not until it works properly, so v7 is just fine thanks!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
v6 have those files too, since some of the files were not added to my delete list until now ;)

It does not matter, v7 is still more stripped from crap than v6. These smaller files does not really affect the size of the rom but I know its annoying to have the knowledge of them existing... ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
7.1 is a complete full rom release, no update this time!

- Pretty much v6 style.

- Rebase on XXEMB5 firmware!

- XXEMB5 modem and kernel.

- Rom size reducement.

- 1% battery mod and black statusbar.

- Removed some more crap. Thanks to Theshawty!

- Removed another lib that proved to be useless.

- Fixed rom default wallpaper.

- Reduced Settings.apk size.

- Some changes due to poll feedback.

- Other minor changes and polish.

* v7.x is the last VikingWay series based on 4.1.2. VikingWay v8 WILL BE Android 4.2 based and if it takes months for Samsung to release it I will wait months!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Theshawty:
Could you update the screenshots page? :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
By using this rom you accept:

* This rom is cooked by my taste and if you don't like that or miss something, just use another rom!

* l share my personal rom build, I'm no paid supporter and I do not like requests.

* Don't ask when things will be done, I take the time I need and release stuff whenever I feel time is right.

* I update when there is worthy improvements, NOT just to get the latest build number.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] boomboomer:
No, flash the 6 in 1 mod for this base EMB5 and it will then work.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] eruben:
Sorry but I can't see the difference. Same was written for 7.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Theshawty:
Okay. Time for Shawty to embrace his viking heritage once more.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] sermonth:
there is 10 mb size diffirence between 7 and 7.1. And of course little bug fixes. if you too lazy to flash 7.1, its okay, you dont have to. Both of them running perfect and also the lightest rom in the forum i think.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
Updated screenshots in #3rd post :)

And yes, 7.1 is more or less like v6.

Though its even smaller than previous versions and features the MB5 changelog along with some other small changes.

Since v7 is still 4.1.2 based it should work just fine flashing over v6 or do a full-wipe if you want a clean start :)

Next VikingWay version will be Android 4.2.x, whenever Samsung releases the firmware. :)

Also I have released an official website for VikingWay: VikingWay Official Website!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Theshawty:
Ok, I have to admit I became a tad prejudice when I read that 7.1 had a 1% battery. I thought "No, does this also have one of those ghastly circle mods?!" and then I installed this rom to find out it has my kind of percentage.

So far so good. Clean and awesome, and I also installed the S Voice package. A question, schoolsux: When Samsung release 4.2.x officially and you make yet another awesome rom, will you also update the S Voice package to include whatever version 4.2 ships with? I'm certain it'll be newer! :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] dule2303:
best rom for s3 thanks
[Galaxy S III Android Development] gadgetcraze:

I've been unable to get AllShare to work on 7.1. Has anybody had any luck?

I have flashed the AllShare zip from Viking Way files but no go. Any help is appreciated...

Edit: Did not work on V7 either.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
Yeah that zip is not for v7! ;)

I made some new zip's for v7.x version, try this one instead: http://lunsarn.se/vikingway/files/?dir=mods & apps/v7.x
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Oomahey:
WOOT! That works! Thanks, mate! :thumbup::)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] cyb3rphr33k:
excellent rom!

I get fantastic battery life and everything until now works great! Wifi, bt, OTG. It's been off the charger for 20 hours and it still is at 87%.

I had a couple calls and some internet browsing this morning, nothing too big, but with the same activities on other roms i should have been at 50% or less.

Great work!

btw, does this rom use stock kernel? what other kernels are compatible with it? I have my GS3 for a week now but i've had a couple other rooted htc devices in the past so i'm kind of new.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Mafioso:

Up untill now omegas been my fav rom, but this rom is super clean and FAST while still keeping the samsung goodies, though i have noticed its not quite as smooth as omegas (while scrolling up and down in Settings and Poweramp lists etc) its a little choppy, i have disabled scrolling cache and also added some of omegas build prop mods but still not as smooth, any ideas? I really like this rom and would be stoaked to make it scroll smoother..:)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] eruben:
How can I disable scrolling cache in this rom?

[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
What recovery did you use when flashing the rom? Also a bootloop might be caused by flashing without doing a full-wipe if coming from previous version other than v6! I tested flashing v7 straight over v6 with no problems! :) Just ask more if you are stuck :good:

Custom kernel for overclocking/dual boot etc...

For stability and battery life I doubt any custom kernel meets up to the MD5 stock kernel standards!

But this is by my opinion and experience. I've always favored the stock kernel :angel:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
VikingWay server is fast, atleast for me - but it still have the unsolved problem which causes the download to drop sometimes/randomly. Please check MD5 or atleast downloaded size and comprare. If you're having trouble with downloading you should try the alternative mirrors! :)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Theshawty:
One way that always works for me to check if a zip is okay or not is to open it with Winrar. If it opens, and I can see the folder, it's whole, if it doesn't open and Winrar throws me an error message, then, well, it usually is broken. ^^
