its called easter eggs and we have already discussed it in roms mods topic, there is no need to start a whole new topic regarding this. Do search before posting.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] rhodrhi:
Sorry , but its hard for me to do a research before posting because I dont really know the exact name of the thing ( now I know : easter egg ) . I will delete the post anyway.
[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] vijai2011:
For somebody who are interested in changing the pics of Easter egg:

1.go to /res/drawable-nodpi of framework-res.apk and there are the images.

2.select your images and rename it accordingly and replace the old one.;)

Its my first android phone but I did use my friend's android phones before and when I connected them to PC I could choose the option to o use it as USB drive and I could connect it to any PC without any problems/drivers and connect it to my ps3, but with GS3 I need drivers for PC and I can't connect to my ps3 at all, so my question is: is there a way to enable USB drive like on other android phones or is there any other way to connect my SG3 to my ps3?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
You can try this. I haven't used it yet but its supposed to do what you want I think.

If it works there is a donate version in play store to consider.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Oh ok. Sorry bout that. I did a quick search and it looks like some folks were working on ways to mount internal via ums.

Ill check a little better later when ihave a little more time.

Maybe in theory you could use 2nd way to make internal SD as external and then use 1st way to make that external SD as USB drive but its not 100% safe and you have to do it each time you want to transfer something... I found an app to use my phone as media server so I can connect to ps3 via Wi-Fi but only to transfer files from phone to ps3 not the other way around... I just don't get it why would they make something that was simple and easy to be more complicated now, I wouldn't be surprised if they release something like iTunes and make it the only way to connect and transfer files...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] hucesar1017:
I don't think that will ever happen with android. But I have seen that even on the tabs like the 10.1 it can be a pain in the butt to use as simple as other androids. But you can always connect via SSH. I know this doesn't help op but just an idea for computer file transfer.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Thats kind of where i was going with it too. Just got busy and thought it might be something that could lead to a solution. I do think this is something that will be solved eventually. Hopefully soon!

I was looking at the thread for that app I linked to earlier and I think the dev is working on it. You my want to ask there to see if its still being worked on.

I doubt that will happen too, and even if it did I guarantee lots of the devs here would be all over it!
[Galaxy S III Android Development] schoolsux:
I have bought a new phone (Xperia Z) so VikingWay for I9300 is now discontinued. I would like to thank everyone that enjoyed VikingWay on the SGS3! :)

VikingWay is a light & fast rom that focuses on keeping the greatest parts of the stock experience and functionality.

Everything that I consider as bloatware or crap is removed and I personally think it gives the rom an amazing clean feeling.

With all crap removed, VikingWay is among the lightest Samsung firmware based roms avaliable - but fully functional and stable for daily use.

I'm personally NOT that interested in modding the rom like a freak and apply tons of tweaks. I think Samsung did most of it really good!

I just don't like all the extra crap that is forced upon the user. VikingWay leaves you at a truly clean scratch with some "schoolsux touches"!!

Mod whatever you like yourself or enjoy VikingWay just as it is - simple and slim with stock solid quality. :D

Quick Navigation:

¤ Changelog

¤ Screenshots & banners

Nice Mods: (optional)

¤ Theme mods for 4.1.2 by raubkatze!

¤ JKay Deluxe Framework.

*** I always dedicate time to test my roms on my SGS3 before releasing ***

*** BUT, I take no responsibility if this rom, or the evil snails in your garden, or whatever - kills your phone ***

*** VikingWay rom does NOT include any bootloader or recovery ***

* Doing a full wipe in recovery before flashing rom is always recommended. However, install script willl NEVER wipe your user data.[/INDENT]

1. Download base rom and latest update if there is any!

2. Copy downloaded zip(s) to phone internal/external sd card.

3. Google how to root your SGS3 and install recovery using Odin.

4. Reboot into custom recovery and do a full wipe.

5a. Wipe cache and dalvik if you have a previous version of VikingWay installed.

5b. Full wipe is always recommended for best experience, especially if coming from another rom its necessary!

6. Flash VikingWay rom using latest ClockworkMod recovery and then any updates on top of it.

7. Done & enjoy VikingWay! :)

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.

am new to android, so just a quick question. I dont know about the different ways to flash a rom(dont know what odin is, BTW I use mac).

So, download rom-> transfer to SD-> wipe data-> install from SD-> wipe cache/delvik cache-> Reboot? Would this work? Thats the only way I know :)

[Galaxy S III Android Development] colint3:
I have tried to dowload your rom yet again and get no further than 11.3mb before it stops. What is going on.
[Galaxy S III Android Development] Steelhog:
I downloaded and installed yesterday without a problem. Just tried downloading again and get as far as 12.5mB before coming to a screaming halt. Definite problem at the moment.

I came from Wanamlite which I have been running since I got the S3 4 months ago. Wanam ICS has been great, although doesn't seem too "lite" anymore. Wanam JB is just unusable for me, FC's, bluetooth problems, extreme lag with most functions for me. I did multiple full wipes, went back to stock, rerooted, wiped again installed JB again, just terrible at present so I went back to ICS 2.3 which was rock solid.

However Vikikng caught my eye and I have to say it is just awesome, lightning quick, not a single FC or problem other than when I tried to change the clock to blue? used raubkatze theme for this and lost status bar, toggles and phone locked up. I changed the battery, and status icons using the VxR addons, interested to know who's theme you guys are using for the clock. I see other themes that work but don't want to change the dialer etc, just the clock.

Also been unable to get swype app, downloads fine, installs but is just nowhere once I reboot.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] byxl:
Hey,

I'm running v5.2 and I'd like to update to v6. Just have a few questions:

Currently my SGS3 has XXELL4; is it necessary/profitable for me to change firmware to XXEMA2?

If so, do I fix this before or after the wiping/cleaning/flashing?

Another question; is it fine to restore a complete backup of userapps+system data from Titanium Backup after I complete the update to v6? Or could the restored system data mess something up?

:eek:

Regards~

Just install v6 on top of v5.2. No wipe needed. I did this and it's working just fine.

[Galaxy S III Android Development] boomboomer:
If it were just the external card then I'd guess the card was faulty, as it's the internal one to then either a hardware fault or you haven't wiped and formatted the phone between ROMs.

Download the SD formatting tool, use it to factory flash your external SD on a PC. Grab the mega wipe file on xda and wipe the entire phone then format the internal SD. Flash the stock ROM for your country and see if the problem is gone, if not then go to a service centre.

After flashing the last few releases over the top of existing ones I decided to do a fresh install of v6. Battery life was excellent before but now I'm getting easily two days full use with at least 7hrs screen on time.

I haven't installed any mods, just flashed the latest radio and ril for my country and frozen all the Samsung services that remain in the ROM.

Hello, I've been using Viking since 3 months now. Too be honest, V6 isn't what I was expecting. I'm more fond of V5, except that I had to get used to the tetris battery.

It had flashlight, volume rocker track skipping which is compatible with ubermusic, and felt different. Not stock :].

Anyway, nothing against it, but I'm reverting back to 5 :]
