Flashed.. Runs very smooth but this one is also having GPS lock issue like the other LK4 based sammy custom ROMS. Anyone finds GPS Fix for this. Has anyone tried with the fix in Omega 3.2 thread.

Other APKs I installed after flashing is attached which may help other buddies...

Installable:

Talk.apk

flashplayer.11.1.115.17.apk

To be pushed to system/app and change permission to rw-r-r

This is the reason I have not flashed with Franco or Siyah (though I am tempted each time)

Stock kernel is very good and snappy too.

The updater script on the call recorder and no increasing ringtone phone mod is broken in the Viking files... it mounts system and data and then unmounts them without extracting the SecPhone.apk

These lines are missing:

package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
package_extract_dir("system", "/data");

Same problem with the Google Talk apk

Maybe you need to add the extract lines to it and reupload it?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:

impressive

last night i flashed my first custom ROM after being 2 months on stock :silly:

i must say m totalli impressed, havent yet got a chance to explore all the features but i like what i saw so far :good:

one noticeable item would be the lock screen. somehow even after pressing the power button, i seem to be unable to keep teh phone locked, the screen does go off. ideally it should be giving me the "swipe lock" effect, which i dont get and pressing the home key brings me back to the desktop.

secondly on stock i was using holo locker, even that does not want to work, thou it has been activated, when pressing the home key, it never shows up and m back on teh desktop(after the phone suppsoedly gets locked, i hear the water drop sound twice). am i missing something ?

nevertheless, this ROM is fantastic and definately a keeper (love the air balloon wallpaper):cool:
[Galaxy S III Android Development] shr95:
I guess so..as I can find some wake locks from Google maps and now...so I lost 1%+ on standby per hour with WiFi on and siyah kernel overnight

Hi

Can anyone help...

There is an option under settings/Lockscreen to enable weather info in Lock Screen. I have enabled it and it works fine. But the minimum interval to refresh is 1 hour. Is there a way to bring this refresh time down to 15min...

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] enigmaamit:
Dunno... that's probably going to entail modifying the Samsung weather app. And 15 mins is going to chew up battery like crazy, with frequent wakelocks... but we are all entitled to our choices, so best of luck...

awesome ROM

@schoolsux (i kinda like that name..true story)

first off, i want to thank you for this awesome ROM, this has been my first, and have been using it till now.

i am on v1, so wanted to know if its safe for me to directly flash v1.2 ?

also i read above that you are coming up with v2 :D

should i wait and do v2 directly ? or is there a seperate procedure involved ?

my apologies since i did not go through all the posts, and not sure if this query has bee answered already.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] BR377:
V1.2 is a small update as a flashable zip (under 3mb), not a whole new rom over 1.0. Give it a go find it here: http://lunsarn.se/vikingway/index.php?dir=updates

Apparently V2 is out very soon if you read above.

I'd assume that's a whole new rom and if it's anything like the previous VikingRom could be "no wipe" over V1.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] arnabasu:
yeah i recently saw that there was a v1.2 and i downlaoded it already, i was thinking of flashing it over v1, and as i was posting my previous comment i read the post abbout v2 coming tommorrow...yipeee cant wait to lay my hands on that.

however i have a noob query, i have never modded ROMmed previously, now when i try to goto recovery (power up+power+home) and then the volume up button, it takes me to the android logo and thats all, where do i get the options to proceed ?

i guess it needs CWM, where will i get it now ? i remember having CWM earlier on my phone, cant locate it anymore after i flashed vikingwayv1 on stock.

any suggestion ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] BR377:
If your running VikingWay which i presume you are, hold the power button and choose restart, you then see a menu where you can choose "recovery" that should get you into CWM if you have it.

Much easier then the button combo, if you have used the combo wrong then you will enter download mode, which is a Android logo.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] arnabasu:
yes i am running vikingway, i held the power button and chose restart however after that it says "device will now restart" cancel/ok...thats all.

as you suggested i do not see "recovery" how can i ensure i have CWM installed (super noob ques) i am pretty sure i dont have it installed, where can i get it from ?

appreciate your help so far

never mind, i did not realize i was being such a douche', i was using the wrong combo, and hence getting into downlaod rather than recovery, tried again and was succesful.LoL

however i still dont see the recovery option as you suggested (after i press power and then restart, the phone directly restarts)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] djshorty:
you dont see recovery option because you dont have update v1.2, there is MOD 4way reboot or something that gives you option to go to recovery.install update 1.2 and you will have;)
[Galaxy S III Android Development] arnabasu:
i have v1 now, so do i just flash v1.2 on top of this ? do i have to wipe?reset ? clear cache dalvik or all of those stuffs ?
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
Just flash v1.2 update on top of v1 in recovery :) Nothing more needs to be done!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] arnabasu:
actually i couldnt stop myself so went ahead and already did it, and yep got the "recovery" option now. plus also managed to bring in the mod+themes, wanted the circle battery and centre clock for a long time, also the transparent notification, got em all LoL....

one thing that i wanted (i am a greedy person and can never be satisfied with what i have)

i pull down my notifications, and the toggle buttons that i see on top are faint colored(cant describe the color type) and when i hoghlight, they become a bit bolder, is there a way to have them in blue too ?

when i goto settings i see the kernel version as se.infra@SEP-111#1 whats that suposed to mean ? and why would i want to change to a different kernel ? what are the pros/cons and what would you all suggest ?

thats enough for now (until i can think of another demand ) LoL

PS - what are the changes incorporated in v2 ? LoL

Oh yeah and instead to add Loco clock you should add deskclock.apk from 4.2 and remove samsung clock app. Widget looks the same as loco (gooood), function is the same as samsung clock (but better looking and a lot smaller). And apparently is working very good on viking.

Just my 2 cents of course...
