I've never understood backing up recovery. You can't restore your nandroid without recovery, so what's the point in backing it up since you'd need it in place in order to restore it. ;) I suppose if you wanted to restore after installing Clockwork or something maybe. But I'd be afraid to have a nandroid restore of my recovery honestly.

Edit: As for Angry Birds (and others) that's why I said 'usually' not necessary. :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] vanessaem:
Ok people, I posted one of those thread thingamajigs over in the Evo themes section.

I've got a linky in my signature.

Same old stuff you've seen in here but I'll be adding more Synergy stuff over there. Post #2 is getting packed. :eek:

Oh yes, that's a good thing. ;)

Myn can you please addy?
[EVO 4G Android Development] CrippleB:
For me it is a paranoia thing. Just to make sure I have all my bases covered. But you are right it is a a weird thing to back.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Greenfieldan:
Here? Absolutely not! haha.
[EVO 4G Android Development] CrippleB:
Just wanted to be sure recently all the forums I have been following. I see "thanks banned" "poof gone" " I told you not to pee in your pants. banned"
[EVO 4G Android Development] vanessaem:
Come on you know better than that. We go from Cnet to Dr. Phil and back again in here. Banned? Never.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kippswanson:
Well it sure doesn't hurt anything.
[EVO 4G Android Development] CrippleB:
Well it could. I backed the very first time and then after that just occasionally. What if you jacked up your wimax keys, backed them and can't figure out why it's not restoring properly.
[EVO 4G Android Development] HipKat:
Cool cool.
[EVO 4G Android Development] linsalata28:
So if i flash this i dont need to do anything aftrer no commands ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] rconnjr:
Are you refering to the radio and PRI? I was unaware of a flashable zip for the PRL and data profile.
[EVO 4G Android Development] smw6180:
Well yes, actually it can. If you back up after you screw up your wimax keys (as CrippleB mentioned) and then restore it, it won't do you any good. Also you're better off never touching the wimax partition for any reason. Best bet is to do one backup of wimax, keep a copy on your desktop, then leave it be.

Looked it over. There are differences in the init scripts and build.prop, but nothing that should make swapon work on one ROM and not on the other. Still digging.

Not unless you want to further customize stuff, nope. It will move your dalvik-cache to internal storage, and really that's the only difference between it and the built-in a2sd.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Agent Droid:
Im looking for what files do i need for the clock/weather combo. The clock on my homescreen has the full screen weather animations....what files does it consist of....looked at htcclockwidget.apk which is the apk, but is there another file for the full screen animation?
[EVO 4G Android Development] vanessaem:
LOL...I like your signature. :p
[EVO 4G Android Development] Jpr0930:
Actually there are PRL scripts u can update with. Not zips of course.
[EVO 4G Android Development] reigndropz:
POW!

Pretty easy to do, I just did mine.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rconnjr:
Thanks for the info, but I would rather figure out and fix the issue. I had it once before a long while back on another rom but it just kind of went away after a day or so. No such luck yet.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cranbiz:
This rom is sweet! Good enough to get me back from AOSP.

One issue though, did anyone loose the sense clock/weather widget when flashing the carrousel/widget on top?

The other issue I'm having is setting custom ringtones for my contacts. Before, I could set a ringtone to any mp3 I had in the phone, now it works maybe 25% of the time. I can go in and select music, and select a song, select OK and when I back out, sometimes it changes the ringtone from default to my selection and sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes it takes 2 or 3 attempts to get it to stick.
[EVO 4G Android Development] smw6180:
Just re-add the clock widget. It just gets cleared, you can easily put it back. Not sure on ringtones, since I leave my phone on silent all the time.
[EVO 4G Android Development] cranbiz:
The problem was I could not find the clock widget in the widget list. It's still listed when I look at the apps/widgets in Titanium but not in the widget list.
[EVO 4G Android Development] smw6180:
Yeah, that's weird. I've never seen that one.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kippswanson:
Point taken. How would that happen though?
[EVO 4G Android Development] staindone:
Nandoided to check out latest MIUI, wasn't impressed so I nandroided back, and it got stuck on the Synergy Rom boot screen, wiped, did a fresh install, same thing. what happened?
[EVO 4G Android Development] JaiCameron:
I don't know of this has been brought up already but I believe there should be a connected media tab in the gallery app that allows you to stream videos and pictures from your computer.
[EVO 4G Android Development] gnmitchell:
Really enjoyed reading your review on synergy. It was definitely great seeing you mention this awesome awesome community of mynions.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kumite2010:
I really like that feature. I've been wanting something like that for a long time, makes me feel like I'm multi tasking.

I can easily switch from XDA to Miren to goSMS to gmail etc really quickly

On a side note. I asked earlier if anyone else was having issues with Chase mobile and didn't get a response. Cmon I know I'm not the only Chase user here
[EVO 4G Android Development] smw6180:
What did you backup with your nandroid?

Did you do a full wipe before restoring the nandroid? (data/cache/dalvik/sd-ext/etc/etc/etc)?
[EVO 4G Android Development] gnmitchell:
I have no problems with the chase app and i saw someone else earlier mention they had no problems either
[EVO 4G Android Development] linsalata28:
Does anyone know if those animated notification background from the uot kitchen work with this ROM?
[EVO 4G Android Development] life:
have tried with other sense 2.1 roms and it didnt work havent tried this one tho.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Agent Droid:
Yes, the animated background will work. Did for me.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ZEDEK:
Peace all,

thinking about giving this ROM a flash--to those that have have it did the Synergy crew include the "dancing Android" in-call animation (that was on Virus' B1) for unknown contacts?

-ZDK-
[EVO 4G Android Development] knoc:
Wow I totally agree and that's what I was telling my fiance and a friend at work..
[EVO 4G Android Development] sensate:
I asked this earlier in the thread, but maybe there are more people who would know on here now...

Would the gingerbread keyboard for warm twopointwo work on synergy? thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] Moricon:
Try clearing data on HTC Sense and see if you get all your widgets back.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Dredz:
So... I need help from one of you fine wallpaper creators out there. I have the concept but not the tools to build it. Anyone interested in bringing my vision to life? It will be great.:D
[EVO 4G Android Development] life:
one in the market, just download, enable, then select it in input settings
[EVO 4G Android Development] texasez:
Just Wondering?

I remember reading it when it was posted, but who came up with Mynions?
[EVO 4G Android Development] SprintTouchPro2:
Oh okay and what do I do about the battery issues? I'll let you know how updating the radio goes
[EVO 4G Android Development] Diesel74:
I had a similar experience but it was Rosie that was giving me the issues, I ended up having to well follow instructions :) and do a "big boy wipe" and then flash the ROM then Rosie in the same session and have had little to no issues since
[EVO 4G Android Development] CrippleB:
Just flashed and glad I moved up from Syn 23. Once again fellas you have made a great improvement on an already fantastic project. Synergy is keeping the old 4g alive.
[EVO 4G Android Development] caleby20:
Lol @ "had to end up following directions" Works every time xD

Sent from my Synergized EVO!
[EVO 4G Android Development] ruckstande:
Anyone still updating with nightlies?
[EVO 4G Android Development] albert221:
Is 4G working?
[EVO 4G Android Development] achllles:
Yes, the 4g works.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Greenfieldan:
Indeed it does good sir! In fact, everything on this ROM is working if I'm not mistaken :)

I will be updating tonight. Any particular reason why?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dkdude36:
neil hassman, thanks for the invite, but it turns out i can't accept because you 'need to be a certain age' :( lol that sucks. either way that means none of my friends could be on it...
[EVO 4G Android Development] Persnlmgr:
Very Cool

I was stuck in the car a lot today, and noticed on my new 4G they are very obviously using the same glass as on the 3D!!

I have a dash mount and occasionally the sun hits the screen head on. On my release day Evo, it just looked like sun-on-glass, but on my new one when the sun hits it just so it looks like The Matrix...very trippy...you can see the texture fused into the glass that makes the 3D come alive.

Just thought I'd share...:rolleyes:

PS - It's kinda lonely over in the WTPT thread. Y'all oughtta come visit...
[EVO 4G Android Development] Greenfieldan:

Um...So how's everyone doing? haha

i was in 8th now in 9th btw...

and yeah, trying to change my account info atm...
[EVO 4G Android Development] Greenfieldan:
No problem. I'm VERY serious about giving credit to the developers at xda on TA. They deserve a lot more credit than they get, and I'm hoping by showing off what goes on here at xda it will get more people involved (which leads to more donations, testers, helpers, etc). I'm just trying to give back to a community that has done so much for me :) (hence the Focus on Community articles, my constant reminding of my readers about xda, ROM reviews, etc). Few Android/Tech Sites give this place the credit it deserves :( I will change that, even if I do it by myself! haha
[EVO 4G Android Development] Greenfieldan:
Hey! No one lies about their age on the internet! :rolleyes: haha

Ironically enough in the pages following that, the discussion surrounded the ability to update profiles :D

re: updating profiles: don't sweat it. You'll be able to update them eventually. You can't do it over wifi. I don't think anyone has determined why it doesn't work sometimes and then suddenly...it does.
[EVO 4G Android Development] incubus26jc:
Thanks for the great review man. Very nice :)

Just updated the theme. Come get you some.

Yeah...I wanted to thank your post put I'm fresh out of Thanks clicks today. I'll hit you up tomorrow. Great theme. :)

Carousel Effect

Do I lose dkdude36's carousel/widget mod if I flash one of the themes?
[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
I agree!!!

That particular wallpaper looks great and really makes texts, fonts and widgets stand out. It is very WARM.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dkdude36:
you lose the carousel, and all your widgets permanently until you wipe data. that is unless you reflash my rosie in the same recovery session as the theme. but no themed rosie or widgets then.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Persnlmgr:
+1...Agreed.

When I first saw the pics, before I read the name, I thought it was the Warm theme for Synergy!!

:cool:
[EVO 4G Android Development] Greenfieldan:
*blushes* well thanks :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] vanessaem:
Gotta love the Mynion threads. No such restrictions or standands.

Anyone else's EVO turning off with RC1? Installed it when it first released and battery was having issues so I ran format all and formatted sd ext just because and reinstalled RC1. Today I noticed that my phone was quite, hit the power button and it's booting up, happened 4 times today.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Solicitous:
I went on Pulse to check for Android news (I have TalkAndroid as one of my news) and I see a review for Synergy. I look at the article and it's written by none other than you! I read it and it was a great review, always glad to have someone experienced who accurately reports the news

[EVO 4G Android Development] HipKat:
WOW, now THIS is ODD!

Because I was concerned about my memory showing only 124mb free internal, I reformatted my SD card, repartitioned (2048/128), then wiped everything and reflashed Synergy.

Then after I got it booted, using the synergy updater, I d/l'd the DT A2SD mod, went to recovery and flashed it. Seems like it worked, no problem.

Rebooted, checked my Memory and 363mb free internal. Cool!

Restored all my apps/data, went to Application Manager, checked and they all installed on the SD Card, and my internal memory is at 302mb. Awesome.

Rebooted, went to Connectbot, ran su > a2sd check and got a2sd not found.

Huh????????????????
[EVO 4G Android Development] vanessaem:
I waste my day's ration of Thanks credits on this thread alone...lol. Too many people in here to thank.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kellte2:
Curious if I'm alone on this one.

I enabled Twitter for HTC Sense and Facebook for HTC Sense because I hate the low-res contact photos that the stand-alone apps use. Anyways, I have accounts logged in, but have all boxes unchecked for syncing purposes. However, every time I reboot the phone, I see the syncing icon on the taskbar and notice that both Twitter and Facebook for HTC Sense have re-checked all the boxes and are presently syncing. Anyone else having a similar problem?
[EVO 4G Android Development] alaman68:
Hey Greenfieldan, great write up:)

I agree with everything except "battery life is fantastic". According to ricsim...

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11084797&postcount=3952

You may to consider the wording "battery life is as expected until HTC releases kernel source code" or "you may get 4% better battery". That would be more objective.

You are in position of power with this article and this may be a decent time and place to call HTC out on the source code. Obviously the ROM is the main focus, but minute ulterior motives could greatly benefit this community. Obviously HTC employees will read this article and the details will be spread through their community like a virus (terrible pun);)

Once again, great job, and use your power for the good of the many

Ok guys so ill just trow it out there when I rrestored data back up I lost the crtv animation and warm updater that's the only things I've noticed so far so how could I get them back
[EVO 4G Android Development] kennae1911:
SIGH!!!! still can't get this rom to boot
[EVO 4G Android Development] flooberz:
my problem was that all my facebook contacts that had phone numbers posted would sync to the dialer regardless. I would tell them not to sync, and they would still show up in the dialer.. in the contacts app. theres a option to not show those contacts.. and it works well there.. but the rest still showed up in my dialer.. so i ended up not even logging into facebook for htc
[EVO 4G Android Development] MRagu:
@ Myn,

I flashed the carousel w/ 3rd widgets from the second post and so now the rosie settings does not work due to the fact that the edits needed for rosie settings was not made in the carousel rosie zip. Is there any way you could post up a quick tutorial on the edits needed to make the rosie settings work with the carousel rosie? Thank you.

[EVO 4G Android Development] spar10:
i saw your post earlier and i also saw that someone replied they were using the app without any problems.
[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
I am not sure what you were coming from to restore data, but gotta ask - why not just restore the nandroid?

I get the impression it's not your initial install since you know you had the crtv and updater.

I do not know why, and I have not been able to confirm this, but for SOME of us (likely due to not backing the data up in a way that is conducive to a good restore with this rom) restoring data via Titanium did not work out so well. I lost the Synergy Updater on the nightly, too.

Do you have a nandroid you can restore?
[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
I'm not sure where you are in the process, but a little more info and I'll try to help.

Did you wipe EVERYTHING, and I mean EVERYthing EXCEPT sd card, before you flashed this rom? Did you try booting immediately after flashing JUST the rom, with no mods? Have you updated your radios?
[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
I may be joining you. I'm gonna give myself the weekend to go check them out, see what a friend has to say about my broken evo, and decide soon~ish.

I liked my last BB so much, I STILL have the dang thing, in perfect working order, the original Bold. I can't imagine parting with my evo :(
[EVO 4G Android Development] kennae1911:
I've wiped, I've updated the radios using Calkulins......I formatted another sd card, I've done it all........
[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
Oh no :confused:

Ok. So where is the snag? I sit at the white htc screen? If so - have you waited a gooood long 5 minutes?

If so - Have you tried pulling the battery, booting into recovery, wiping cache and dalvik again, and then tried to reboot?

If so - what do you have on your sd card? Have you tried booting with JUST the rom on the sd card? I am not sure why that matters, but I have seen that help some.

ooo - how about this. Put the sd card in your pc and make sure it is not corrupted. It happens.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kennae1911:
The snag is at the white HTC screen, I let it sit for about 4-5 hours while I slept...I put a brand new sd card in with nothing on it except the rom, the radios, and VR superwipe...
[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
Ok. That's long enough ;)

Did you format the sd card before you put files on it?

even if not, have you pulled the battery, boot into recovery, wipe both caches, and tried to reboot?
[EVO 4G Android Development] KaL-EL3038:
The reason I didn't do a full nandroid restore is cause I've had issues before were for some reason it restores the old rom and gives me issues....I've tried titanuim before on other room to no this one and have had issues where some app disapear to...but this time I did a nand advance restore and it returned everythin ok it just deleted some of the apps the one I noticed was the updater and the animation ivehad this issue of erasing the updater on rs5 too but it was not a big issue cause its my gf phone so she don't notice it lol and yeah this waas my first instal but I went thru the new rom blank to see what was new and stuff and after a day I did the restore and thatsz when these stuff disapered
[EVO 4G Android Development] kennae1911:
Man I've exhausted all possibilies lol.........
[EVO 4G Android Development] KaL-EL3038:
Hey bro sorry slugbug the reply I did before this was fr you
[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
are you using clockwork or amon recovery?

What I'm not understanding is - you flashed the rom, it booted and was ok, you checked it out for a day and then....flashed what? Oh. You went thru it blank and THEN tried to restore data. Right? Yea, that might be a problem cuz your restoring data that was backed up using a difference version of Sense. Many of us have found that doesn't work out too well. MUCH better to install apps from the market and then only restore data for the apps you MUST have the data for (like games).

I started completely fresh, redid all my setting, installed all my apps new, etc. When I tried to restore some apps and some data, it went wrong (such as losing the updater)
[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
I gotcha :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
Could the new sd card be bad?

Oh. Wait. Could your download of the ROM be bad???? did you check the md5 sum? You didn't happen to dl it from the rapidshare site did you?
[EVO 4G Android Development] dkdude36:
try using clockworkmod. lol it's seriously the only thing that could get it to boot for me when i first tried the rom. but after it booted once, i could use amon-ra.
