The EVO mods should work as long as they don't specifically point to a EMMC partition but rather parse mtd for the "system" partition. The following is an example of something that should be flashable on almost all devices.

ui_print("Installing Wifi Adhoc..");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
show_progress(1, 15);
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/system");
ui_print("Installation complete!");

as you can see it will just flash to system regardless of which mtd partition system is on.

the following will only flash correctly on the shift since it directly calls the EMMC partitions.

ui_print(" ");
ui_print(" ");
ui_print(" Installing Synergy Shift");
ui_print(" RLS1 ");
ui_print(" ====================================");
ui_print(" Ported from myns Synergy for the EVO");
ui_print(" ");
ui_print(" ");

ui_print(" Deleting dalvik and boot cache");
mount("ext3", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p27", "/data");
mount("ext3", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p28", "/cache");
delete_recursive("/data/dalvik-cache");
delete_recursive("/data/boot-cache");
delete_recursive("/cache");
ui_print(" ");

ui_print(" Formating system...");
mount("ext3", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p26", "/system");
format("ext3", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p26");
delete_recursive("/system");

ui_print(" ");
show_progress(0.100000, 10);
ui_print(" Copying /system");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");

ui_print(" ");
ui_print("Symlinks and permissions...");

so just for sanity it would be wise to have a look at the updater-script before you flash anything not specific to the shift.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] strapped365:
Go ahead and keep flashing mods with scripts written for a different setup but look at the info your giving newbs making them think its okay to flash something from a different phone, now imagine if someone flashes something else for like the tbolt or anything and destroys their phone how smart would you feel then? If anything your giving out bad info at the very least

[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] zenulator:
Let's not start a flame war. You are correct. Some mods will flash. Some parse the build.prop for the phone type and will fail to flash but some will not check the phone type and flash to the wrong partition potentially causing problems. You are experienced enough to know but some people might not and have problems. That's why I guess the others were warning about potential problems.

We are all here because we like to mod our phones. Most know the risks involved and the steps to take to correct anything that goes wrong. If not these forums are here to help fix any problems.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] pwnyourace:
The funny thing is..99% of the mods are for our phone..i think some people forget that this was originally from the shift

ok took for a full ride

light comes on like mik rom

big problem with camcorder resets after 2 sec of recording

weather is a black screen

little lag but not to bad wish code was out for oc
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] zenulator:
On second thought just replace the camera with a deodexed one from our gingerbread 2.1 sense since synergy is based off of the shift anyways. I think myn just added the regular EVO camera for their rom since it has the front front camera.

You might lose the panorama and other add effects but im not sure how well they work anyway. seems more of a gimmickto me.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] strapped365:
Panorama is actually pretty sweet and it works well if you have a steady hand along with HDR that's another cool feature I wish there was a way we could add just them 2 features and not lose anything
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] rhodiggah:
now trying WARM SYNERGY and I must say, very responsive! So far I have used TB to restore my apps but not data (yet.) Weather works, KB light still turns on but I believe there is a fix for that. Anyone care to tell me what page it was on? Or link?

Thanks Zenulator for porting this...
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] zenulator:
No fix for the light. It doesn't really bug me too much since all you havr to di is touch the notification bar. There is an update a couple pages back that should help with any sense reloads as well as some options for smoother transitions and quicker call connection and shorter ring delay.

I might mess around with it again later tonight. I'm currently running the latest miui.

Question about the warm theme. Is it possible to get a port or anything for any Rom? Not trying to disrespect anyone, I like synergy great job

Sent from your Mom's Jitterbug
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] notsointeresting:
your asking for a port of the warm theme to another ROM? its definently possible what ROM?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] rhodiggah:
Well, battery life is pretty good with somewhat heavy use. 16hrs with 21% remaining. Phone is set up exactly the way I had it setup when I was using Supreme Sense V3. The biggest difference is I get no lag with this ROM (Warm Synergy) and is very responsive. So far, no reboots (didn't have to tweak) and updated data to all apps through TB just fine. Granted, there is a big difference between ROSIES and as much as I like SSV3, I can't stand the lag, unresponsive, and reboots.

This ROM (Warm Synergy) is stopping me from going back to CM7...

Kudos...

[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] prboy1969:
So I've got to ask, just what are you talking about? Lag :confused: ? Unresponsive :confused: ? Reboots :confused: ? Hmmm :confused:? Let's see I have about, no exactly 37apps. A big widget on every screen, and use the hell out of Supreme Sense v3 :rolleyes: . No reboots. LAG? Ummm no. No KB light. Everything works. So I'm not sure what your talking about. Also, I have about four other phones running the SS v3. People who don't know a thing about phones. They just like the way it looks, but need something stable and reliable. I've had no complaints. Now everyone's experiences vary, but honestly now. That's not at all cool. If you like SYNERGY better great. I'm all for choices :) .Yes I've checked out this Rom. Have even installed for a few people. BIG Kudos to the Dev. But don't knock one Rom on another thread with questionable statments. That's the kind of enviroment that creates animosity between Dev's and users. Not at all the enviroment we need here on XDA.

Black Weather Screen

I noticed that there was a folder named 'Weather' in the system/media directory in some of the other 2.1/3.0 Shift ROMs (MikShiftedG and Supreme) and is also in the WeatherPack mod here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1062962 that is not present in this ROM. I copied it over and now there is something there when I launch weather, but the videos are not being displayed properly (viewing them with a media player, they look fine.) I'm suspecting that's why they were left out of the ROM.

I've tried a few things, but this is above my skill level. Maybe someone can figure out what's going on.

Its the wrong file... To fix the light you have to edit the services.odex
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] pwnyourace:
this isnt mikshifted-g..its a deodex rom so there is no services odex, i used to use kingsrom on my shift (another deodexed rom) and thats the file i had to replace to get rid of the kb light

it could be the wrong file on this rom, if so then ill edit the post
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] drob311:
Ok... But the light is caused by the crt animations which is located in the services.odex.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] lvpre:
I haven't used this rom, but if there isn't a services.odex, I'm sure it would the services.jar file causing the issue. Because the odex is kind of like the jar file decompressed into two files. However, I think asop roms have the smali files for the animation in the android.policy.jar area.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] drob311:
They took the mod from aosp and baked it into sense so if it wasnt in the same location i wouldnt be shocked. There is a way to fix it but its very tedious and i dont really feel like doing it (seriously hung over)... It would involve odexing files editing and deodexing again...
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] strapped365:
The smali edits should need to be done to the classes.dex file inside of services.jar, since Synergy is already a de odexed ROM you shouldn't have to worry about the whole odexing de odex pprocess, the only time that comes into play is when you need to edit a file that's odexed,in that case you would have to de odex the file edit your classes.dex then re odex to work with the ROM

Every Time I try to flash a zip file containing a MOD, or a Lock Ring for example. CWM Aborts the installation and says

[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] jesusice:
No. It's the zips you're trying to flash. They use Amend scripting which no one, including Google, uses anymore. The devs need to update their scripts to Edify or you need to downgrade CWM to 2.5. Koush could continue to support Amend but he doesn't, and most others don't, see the point of supporting a dead scripting language. TWRP doesn't support Amend either.

I have heard good things about Synergy on the Evo and was excited to hear about it coming to the Shift.

That being said, why would I run this instead of Supreme Sense? The only thing I really miss from Supreme Sense is landscape mode on the home screen. Does Synergy do that? Also does it switch to landscape when the hardware keyboard is opened?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] strapped365:
Synergy is a de odexed stock Sense 2.1 ROM with a couple of sense 3.0 features, since synergy is still using the 2.1 Rosie yes it will landscape

to my understanding of it there wasnt a flashable, because their are things that need removed so there isnt any duplicate widgets and i think a couple other things
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] VICODAN:
Had to flash the ROM twice.

Performance and battery life was pretty bad. But I did enjoy the ROM.

Sense would be so much better if the kernel source code for 2.6.35 was released.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] AGiLiT:
I get really good performance and battery life is as good if not better than other Sense ROMs. Yeah; it's not over clocked, but for how I use it, I'm not complaining. I baked a2sd into it; that may help. I typically get through the day and often more than 24 hours on a charge with pretty decent usage, plus live wallpapers, hourly weather updates, a fair amount of music streaming, lots of email, etc. It does take a while for any new ROM load to settle down a bit; did you give it a chance?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] woodfinx:
I've noticed with this rom that after going into an app for a while if I hit the home button the app has killed my launcher and it has to reload it. Is this an issue overall or just a glitch I might be able to squeeze out with a reflash?
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] AGiLiT:
I'm no expert, but I don't think the launcher has been 'killed'; just means that not enough memory available when coming back from running the app and it has to kill some processes to free up space to load the launcher.

I don't see this behavior, but I've got a2sd baked into the ROM.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] woodfinx:
Well yeah, but it seems like the rom is killing apps if they dont get used for a while. My last rom ate up more memory than this one and I never had this problem.
[EVO Shift 4G Android Development] strapped365:
Yeah what your seeing is a Sense reload and it happens when Sense gets killed out due to your current app wanting all your memory so it kills everything else, there are tweaks that can be done to decrease the chances of a Sense reload i just dont know them all right off top hand
