Just flashed V5 over V3 , then flashed perseus kernel . Then V5.1. Few things though

1.) The phone wake up , ie after auto screen-off , there is considerable delay to show the lock screen . I havent flashed any mod like ink effect or anything.

2.) The phone feels a little bit laggy , the power saving feature is off . previsouly , even with that on , the phone was faster . But V5.1 feels a little laggy.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] t0n0n:
That's why we do not flash new bases over old ones. The phone can boot normally, but not run as smooth as a fresh installation.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] naveen_reloaded:
i backed things with TB , will just work with the "OVER" flashed ROM , jsut to see if it settles , coz many roms does need some time to settle . if not will use "Mega Wipe" script and install from first.

1.) Just one doubt , i have installed AVAST anti-theft app , which install in root. does mega wipe affect it

2.) What is the order of flashing ? I mean install ROM + Update (5.1) at the same time and reboot , then comeback to install Persues Kernel ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] t0n0n:
AFAIK, Super wipe wipes EVERYTHING from your internal memory. I may be wrong.

Flash the ROM, and the Kernel, reboot, make sure everything is okay, flash update, that how I do it.

Last time I upgraded, I had to uninstall everything and tried app per app to know which one was slowing the phone down.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] naveen_reloaded:
the problem is i am on slower broadband (512kbps) , it took me around 2 hours to download the main ROM , so everytime installing a fresh ROM , and then freshly downloading apps and syncing etc will take almost solid 4-6 hours or even more.

Really if i had the pleasure of faster BB , i really wouldnt mind doign a fresh install each time.

Anyway thanks for the answers .
[Galaxy S III Android Development] arnabasu:
i am on 4.1 and phone seems to be laggy, lock screen especially, i am using holo locker, and trying to unlock teh device usually takes time. also gallery has a good amount of lag. i did a clean wipe before 4 and ran 4.1 over it. had no issues with 2/2.1/2.2 ever

also the battery life dsnt seem to be good, been over 3 days since i am on 4.1.

any advices ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] devadatta:
flashing 5 and then 5.1 might be a start :angel:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] huuub:
No lag here, maybe a bit for the gallery! Not sure... On stock kernel.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] georgesadam:
hmm no help ???

Installed after full wipe. Fastest Viking rom ever. Brightnes is o.k.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Kemby13:
Everything working great here, with latest Yank-kernel battery life and performance are very good.

I see u uploaded a lot of mods too, i'd only like to see some more battery icons and maybe more blue colored icons in general.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] naveen_reloaded:
Ok did a "Mega Wipe" , installed V5 , then flashed the Perseus Kernel . Booted in , logged into Google and rebooted to flash V5.1 update. The lag is gone , feels more like V3 .. Cant see any speed improvement , but atleast it wasnt laggy like "Over Flashed" ROM.

Just one thing , the Baseband now says is XXELL4 , but V5 is based on XXELLC ? Is it ok?

Also want to see Schoolsux incorporate the SDS patch in the kernel which comes along with ROM.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] invisiblebm:
Baseband is for Scandinavia. It is writen in changelog. Just change it via recovery. Check out which one is for your area .

Stock kernel is still the best one.

I flashed domination and jkay on V5 without any trouble..

hey guys,

anyways I can get the 23 toggle buttons back in 5.1. I tried flashing the earlier mod of 23 toggles but it removed the top bar altogether and I had to reflash the rom.

Thanks

[Galaxy S III Android Development] tsw_sweden:
If you have some time over, you can always try to flash my update (my rom thread, post #3), that upate is only for adding 23T (user reqeusts), nothing else, and it works fine on XXELLC (wich my rom is also based on).
[Galaxy S III Android Development] invisiblebm:
Download Omega files , from Playstore. There is 24 toggle mod. Download and flash. It works perfectly with Viking rom.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] freddestarfighter:
After updating to 5.1 from 5 there was no sound when calling, I tried to flash v5 again but it still didn't work.

I am now back at ARHD, I like your ROM but need the phone app to function flawlessly.

cyanway <> vikingway

School, which version do you prefer yourself? Do you mind telling the major differences?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] BossStang:
Can anyone recommend a (bugfree) camera mod which takes pictures with flash down to zero battery?

I know I can usa a non sammy camera app but I like the stock camera.

This is the only thing that bugs me, vikingway v5 running great.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] svetloslav:
Actually I think v4 was in a way better than v5. Sorry but all the added mods somehow introduced imperfections in this rom. And in general the less pre-moded roms like v3 and v4 come to be more universal and are not prone to unintentionally introduced bugs. Also I love the links and the added Viking Way mod files, because that gives everybody the chance to pick exactly what feels best. I check everyday if you have added links to mods and /or files, it is like the daily news section. So v4 is a gem, will keep using it, thanks.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
VikingWay is the best one for everyday use :)

Major differences is that CyanWay its not a Samsung rom. Its stock Android enhanced with cm10 settings and features. A nice mix if you feel like trying something new!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
Yeah, I understand your thinking. :cool:

v6 is not in development yet, its more or less only slightly imagined.

It will probably be nothing more than a very clean and fast stock experience with root!

I know alot of users like these mods and I think they are cool too, but I don't use them very often and when there is trouble bringing them to a new version its simply not worth the time to me.

Its so redicoulusly easy to get JKay's framework installed and get mods to the teeth nowdays anyway.

Anyways, no mods transform package for v5,

Here you go: link!

Flash in recovery over v5-v5.1.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Conceptunlimited:
You mean Cyanway? :p
[Galaxy S III Android Development] F3nr1s:
For me v5.0 is the best ROM i have tried absolutly no bug . Smooth and stable and just the mods i need . Not to much .
[Galaxy S III Android Development] huuub:
Tried it some time, feels faster but some games start lagging... GPU thing?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Tenacious:
Same here v5 is great has all tweaks that are useful like when press home button don't exit current app and the torch in lock screen also volume skip song and no bugs, maybe keep these tree mods.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] upss16:
Agree totally. As flashing these mods sometimes results in corrupt installation of this wonderful rom.

Btw can someone link me to camera 4.2 flash able file which can be used with this rom. Thanks:thumbup:

Yeah, I corrected the text to be less confusing ;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Theshawty:
Hey mate, quick question. Is S Voice included per default? Checked OP and searched, but couldn't find whether it's removed by default or included.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] svetloslav:
About the issue with SDS I happen to have the affected production date. Luckily with XELLA and above stock kernels are supposed to have the work around for the buggy firmware of the sMMM so we should be ok for the daily usage. What has not been made clear enough here is that while in recovery the risk of SDS returns in full force. That is true even for the latest Clockwork_Recovery_6.0.2.7-CWM kindly provided in the VikingWay files. The solution is to flash philz_touch_4.00-b04-i9300 recovery which he updated with a XELLA kernel. That I think is a worthy link for the front page, or a valid candidate for the VikingWay files, because it won't be a nice thing if while in recovery the phone dies on someone and he has to ask SAMSUNG for a replacement and what not. And stay away from the new bootloader which makes it very difficult and demands numerous loops to triangle away the counter. I can hardly see the benefit it brings by fixing the processor exploit.

Re: [ROM][14Jan] ¤¤ V I K I N G W A Y v5.1 ¤¤ The Smooth, Clean & Epic Way!

Removed by default but you can install it afterwards it's in VikingWay file's.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Theshawty:
All I have to say is, WOW! This rom is by far the smoothest touchwiz based rom I have ever tried! It was a beast when I last ran it on ICS and it still rocks. Every mod suits me perfectly and 5.1 is complete in all ways possible. Center clock, black status bar, and one other thing I noticed: GPS locked instantaneously, unlike on say Omega.

I've only run it for 10 minutes, but this is hands down complete for 4.1.2.

I sincerely regret not running this rom for so long. I had forgotten how awesome it still is and was back then. You never fail to deliver, schoolsux. ^^

I will not change to to the Note 2. Its a cool phone, but the size of the S3 is just right for me. Even tho firmware is very similar on the Note 2, I want all focus on the S3 to give myself and my followers the best rom experience to use day in and out.

Dont know where to post , but I am on V5.1 and perseus Kernel. Did a fresh install few days back , and i dont know , the phone is heating up at the bottom , even though i am not doing anything cpu/gpu intensive.

What kernel are you guys using ?I didnt go with Viking Stock kernel coz that SDS is not patched. What should i do ? I dont know if its any app that is doing this. The phone seems a little laggy.

Should i also set anything in pereus kernel ? or change to someother kernel ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] nelly_boy:
Re: [ROM][14Jan] ¤¤ V I K I N G W A Y v5.1 ¤¤ The Smooth, Clean & Epic Way!

What do battery stats say? Running hot at the bottom is just the battery being drained by an app or process. Most likely a ****ty app. For example noom killed mine.

Re: [ROM][14Jan] ¤¤ V I K I N G W A Y v5.1 ¤¤ The Smooth, Clean & Epic Way!

I wrote some pages back, that the stock kernel is the best. No drain, no heat, no lags, fast and very smooth.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] boomboomer:
You need to do some searching, reading and learning - your understanding is incorrect on several points.

The stock kernel included with v5 has the SDS fix included and although you aren't doing anything cpu intensive it doesn't mean that your phone isn't without your knowledge. Post questions about the kernel in the perseus thread, this ROM is not causing the symptoms you describe.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] naveen_reloaded:
1D 18h 6m on battery

screen : 37%

voice call : 20%

Device Idle : 14% :eek:

Cell standby : 13%

Android system : 6%

Facebook : 4%

Android OS : 3%

Battlefriends (game) : 2%

wifi : 2%

I keep wifi always on. And this 1D battery stand involves few minutes connected to laptop for transferring etc.

I used Android Assistant to check the battery temp and when i switch on , the battery starts at 35-36c and very quickly climbs to 41c and more.

I dont know what is causing it. The phone becomes laggy then. Have tried restarting .

You mean in Viking V5 kernel ? can you confirm ? Someone told its not and perseus is one of the few kernel which has this SDS fix.

If it contains SDS fix , i too would love to have stock kernel . previously was on stock kernel and never had this problem.

To all , anyway to know which app / process is consuming resource second by second ? like our windows taskmanger ?

I did read , this thread doesnt list Viking as SDS fixed rom http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2091045

Kindly correct me if i am wrong.

Also as i stated , i didnt know where to post , either here or on kernel thread. I posted here to know whether ROM had any interference with the kernel.

Even though XXELLC is listed as fixed , schoolsux didnt mention it , so went for custom SDS fixed kernels
[Galaxy S III Android Development] IOIDroid:
Re: [ROM][14Jan] ¤¤ V I K I N G W A Y v5.1 ¤¤ The Smooth, Clean & Epic Way!

The SDS fix is not aomething we have to implement. It is built into the kernels and therefor anything above eklc is sds safe.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] naveen_reloaded:
Thanks. Now that i am on perseus , i should just download viking v5 kernel via vikingway app and flash right ?

Will report back if the heating problem still exist after moving to stock kernel.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
Info about the SDS thing:

VikingWay v5 stock kernel is XXELLC so it includes the fix by default.

However, you need a recovery that works with this kernel fix as well:

So, only thing you have to do if you have v5 stock kernel is getting one of the recoveries above and you should be SDS safe!

[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
Guys, you can't simply flash updates over a modified rom and believe everyhting works :)

Especially JKay modifies the framework and android.policy.jar!

You need to flash rom and updates before anything else to get everything it in the right order.

I know its an annoying process but it needs to be done when you've modified something! :)

v5.2 is in a complete & perfect condition in my opinion so you shouldent expect any more updates for v5 unless something unexpected is discovered! ;)

Is there any other changes in 5.2 other then your changlist? Havent bothered to dowload it sins i se no point because I use jkays framwork with modified lockscreens.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] svetloslav:
I did not get that last one. Do you have a brightness bug that drains battery in v5.2, or in v4.1? Cause I'm running v4 after a Mega Wipe and have just a green circle battery plus back to stock toggles and Samsung boot animation and I can tell you this rom is rock solid, fast, no battery drain, no brightness problems, nothing to complain about. And XELLA modem works very stable too.
