connect your xbox to your computer using ethernet. download and install pdanet tether to your computer, then create an internet sharing bridge between pdanet and ethernet. it will let your xbox connect to the internet via pdanets connection. youll need to hide tether usage via level 1 it will slow down and will prolly have lag but should work

It doesn't work for me. Wiped cache/system and so on but when I try to install it says this:

flash_zip'

A little help please. BTW I started off with 1.0.3 because it said in the post to start there if we're new to this rom. Thanks.

cuz i am such a nice guy, here is a cwm flashable zip that you can open up and swap out the files and make your own boot sounds/animations. the updater script is fine as is but obviously you may wish to customize it more. this is for people who would like to start to easily customize their phone and share their work

Hey shab, 2 part question.

1. Every time I restart the phone I hear the sonic music but don't see him. Where did he go?!

2. I downloaded this and flashed it in TWRP but don't see it on my phone. Where is it?

This last month or so, my life has turned inside out. Someone came into my life and it has been beautiful but also hard. Shabby is a beast and I love him thanks for everything

Side just like to point out that even though I've heard only good things about metropolis ROM, I feel a bit weird about it. Sometimes it lags, my phone doesn't wake very quickly, and occasional force closes. I know this is a whip and all but side like to ask if everyone else is experiencing similar situations?

Again, I love the ROM and all the work that's been going on. Thanks in advance and bless the devs that are making moves with the metro s3

the default stuff is in teh rom, i provided that zip as a base for anyone looking to change theirs can swap out the files and tada you now have custom bootanimations and a boot sound in cwm flashable zip to share with everyone

its not designed to have anything in it usable

 

[Guevage]

Can't wait for a month or two to pass. Gonna keep getting exciting. Any kernel for touch wiz Roms in the works?

 

[Boomkid]

Last question. I use an app called Nimbuzz to speak with my wife overseas instead of running up my bill or buying phone cards. But whenever I try to sign in to the app it freezes then 5 secs later it force closes and vibrates 3 times then tries again. What can I do to get it working.

Try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=33165746 its aosp sounds for sg3 ROM. I'm not a fan of the sounds that come with our phone.

 

[Guevage]

Kungfu, did you change the ringtone setting in the text app? I think they might be seperated from the phone settings menu and instead its in the text app settings

 

[kenosuke117]

Anyone help one why I can't send MMS anymore the first 2 days it was fine and now I can't send any

 

[kungfu411]
