one of the 50+'s :mad: and now i'm kind of confused.... doesnt restore data for apps? i thought only restoring system data was a problem. i kind of assumed restoring "apps + data" was an ok thing especially if staying on the same rom. just trying to understand rather than challenge poster's credibility

btw, is there a benefit to accepting to install the google apps in aroma vs manually installing them later after the rom is installed? what about using titanium to convert them to a system app? any difference? any benefit using titanium to convert to system app?

thanks

mark

Maybe Prdog1 can chime in later, at our age he is probably getting some zzzzs right now. Lol!

Prdog1 has always told me no data only app when restoring. Have not had any issues following this advise. Here's a link I found that explains Tibu very nicely, I think anyways.

Good tutorial

Solooking back home screen rotating is not working I assuned it was along with the l9ck sc4een.

But I still hvae forc cl9ses but they are. Not real force closes they l9ad but then right before painting the screen it says the app has stopped
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TheMainCat:
The problem that PrDog is explaining is that with so many apps out there, there isn't any way of knowing if its data files are tuned for certain aspects of a ROM and if you restored app+data..and you have issues...its hard to tell what the problem may be.

I agree if you restore your personal app+data from one version (say Synergy :) ) and restore it to the same version, nothing should happen. But if you go from .... say v373 to v443, quite a bit changed between those versions, and the app data may cause some weirdness. Then we have folks going on about "this app doesn't work" or "why do I get FC using this version" messages, and birds start falling from the skies, and the oceans turn red...pandemonium
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ylexot:
My argument is that there should be no difference between non-system app data that is restored and non-system app data that is created fresh. So, if the app is going to cause problems, it is going to cause problems whether you restore its data or not.

Can anyone give an example of non-system app data that is ROM framework-specific?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobcaruso:
Simply don't agree with this, and have never had a problem restoring apps from rom to rom, AOSP and non Aosp.

First off, many buisness apps contain data you cannot reproduce without painstaking effort,such as time/billing recording apps and Security Token apps (RSA SecureID) that are instantiated by my clients, so data restore for these apps is an absolute requirement.

Secondly, each app has it's own defined data storage databases & file structures, regardless of the rom they are installed on, so restoring these apps have no bearing on a rom's system data storage.

I go from Beans to Synergy to AOKP to CHAOS, to Paranoid without any issues restoring all of my 90+ apps & data for well over three years on multiple phones.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] HarleyChick:
I have to agree. In my experience from flashing rooting & flashing ROMs - starting with the Thunderbolt and through the Dinc, Dinc2, Rez & now GSIII - I have NEVER had a problem using TiBu to restore user apps + data, EVER. And I do it all the time. Again, that is just my personal experience, no emperical data or anything to back that up, just me.

Just sayin....

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] xm41907:
I never backup system apps, I just don't see the point for apps that will be included with the flash. I do restore user apps with data, but occasionally one won't play well. Lately, it seems Facebook hasn't liked well after a restore. If it doesn't, a quick clearing of data works.

First of all , Welcome aboard Harley Chick , its been a while. Glad to see you on here. and the Age thing, Age is just a number. Some numbers just happen to be higher :) .. that is what makes the Android community so great. We have young, old ,, male and female. We all have 1 thing in common, we enjoy the fact that we can do about anything we want with our devices (thanks to people like Esch and TrevE and the whole team of course) I love seeing a variety of ages on here. What I have seen is the Older generation helps the newer generation lean and that is the only way this community will stay alive. I honestly wouldnt know half what I do ( and it aint alot ) without the help of some OLD guy PRDog:cool:

Im 34 and only been in the game for bout 2 years now and I hope when Im 112 like PRdog I will know what he does and can contribute to the community and pass my knowledge to the next generation as he has done. Sorry this was long, Later.:cool:

I didn't install the entire theme, just certain mods, using the SystemUI zipped, as I was given the choice in the options while flashing.

I wanted to change my task bar to blue. Have the transparent curtain and such.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Dmavs3113:
Hello all so I've actually had synergy before and I wanted to try out the new floating window feature. So as I'm installing through AROMA mid way the installation the screen just turns off. I'm not sure what the issue is, i'm thinking it could be the ziggy kernel. I had to open recovery but it had erased my backups.. so I had to re-flash my previous AOSP rom. Anyone had this black screen issue? I'm on the vzw s3 btw. Thank for any help
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] daniel4653:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Yea if remove clock from homescreen the replacement is 4x3 instead of 4x2. Looks like widget in drawer is from 4.1.2. Just pull the clock package out of system from an older rom version or from stock. :cool:

I currently have cyanogenmod 10.1 running 4.2.2 on sprint galaxy s3...can I flash this synergy rom since it has 4.1.2 or will that cause problems as its downgrading from 4.2.2 to 4.1.2???
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Software version is irrelevant to flashing. But recommend wipe everything in recovery and superwipe in Aroma. Any AOSP files left from a dirty flash could cause problems. Once you wipe device you only on the latest firmware that you are on which could be ICS if you never upgraded firmware. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droid316:
Have had it for a month and I love it. 2 hours screen time so far today and just reached %90 just now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] acostaae90:
So basically just go into clockworkmod...wipe user data...wipe cache...wipe dalvic cache...then flash synergy ROM...once inside the aroma installer...is there an option to wipe in aroma..or is this also done inside clockwork mod somewhere??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Wipe system also. And superwipe is an option in Aroma. Save everything you need on internal sd and run rom zip from external. It will nuke your internal and will lose anything on there. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] acostaae90:
Lol okay so I don't have an external SD card..I have an internal...and inside the internal is the nandroid backup I made with clockwork of my stock recovery...if i do get an exterbal and so as you say will this nuke everything inside the internal such as documents...music and specifically the clockworkmod filder with my nandroid backup...in case things go wrong lol...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
It will nuke anything and everything. You can do a normal wipe in Aroma if have to but will get better results by cleaning and fixing bad blocks on internal. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] acostaae90:
Okay I'll go to the route. Thanks so much
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobcaruso:
You're dead wrong prdog, notification requests are NOT framework dependent, just how the fFW handles the notification is
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] spearoid:
55 year olds say "lol" ???
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
The notification requires framework to handle it or you get no notification so it is framework dependent unless Webster changed the definition of dependent. If it wasn't they would not have update Liteflow everytime something changes in OS and you could run any version of dropdown notification on any device. :cool:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BillBauman:
There are some here that feel the need to "defend" any statement that hints at suggestive feedback or something that they interpret as criticism.

I have finally concluded my app testing for the Ziggy kernel. Final conclusion, it's the kernel, on some phones. My friend's GS3 runs fine w/ Ziggy and pretty much any of the standard Aroma settings for it. I have 2 other phones, one is AT&T GSM, the other is a VZW phone, that simply are not smooth with the Ziggy kernel, especially not if it is balmy/muggy conditions or they get warm enough under load. It takes about one to 2 days of use on a stock load w/ Ziggy, but I can get it to start hanging w/o any additional apps loaded/restored, nothing, zilch, nada, no mods, no nothing.

To fix it, all I have to do is re-run install and choose stock. I've even tried re-running install, choosing stock, rebooting, letting it sit, back to recovery, choose Ziggy, come back up, within a day, I have the locking issue again. It's easily repeatable.

The GSM phone is solely for international use. I can survive on my Nexus 4 for now.

If Ziggy would like, I'll send him the phone for debug/test.

Been using Linux for almost 15 years too. One time a kid asked me what games I played and I said, "Games? The COMPUTER is all the game I like to play". About 8 yrs ago my daughter gave me an iPod Touch for Xmas which I jailbroke and still use for music when I roller-blade 4-5 days a week 4 miles per day. But I got tired of not being able to fool with as much as wanted and then they came out with the Samsung Epic.... and after that came custom roms.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mswilson2007:
I see the last few posts haven't really been on topic, and I hate to be the one to veer off-topic from the previous topics. But I've been running Synergy for awhile now, since early January and I enjoy it. One thing I'm wondering if it's just me or is this a problem everyone has. On occasion my screen will not come one for some reason. I'm pretty sure the phone is still running somehow because pressing the power button does nothing. IT's not a major issue because a batter pull fixes it right up, but the thing is I have a Otterbox case which makes it a tad bit more tedious each time I need to do a batter pull.

I'm just wondering is this a common issue, or should I just do a clean wipe, and reflash?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Molybdenite:
I've finally updated to 443 and applied the copy paste zip, pretty nice! Except now my internet browser (using the stock one) takes up the full screen and sits under the notification bar, so half the top is cut off (where the url bar and tabs are), any way to fix it to stop at the notification bar? Full screen mode properly makes it full screen above the bar, but I can't get it fit correctly. I'm using nova launcher, if that matters.

Different phones have different CPU revisions. Its easily seen in source here - line 1280

http://projects.ziggy471.com/projec...ster/entry/arch/arm/mach-msm/acpuclock-8960.c

The only ones we had available to us were revision 0, i think its 0x511F04D0 real cpuid, it actually shows the revision in aroma before you flash. Im guessing the ones with issues are revision 4 or whatever the newer ones are, they apply vmin differently at the hardware level IIRC

Ill ask him next time see him around if having a device would help. I know at the minimum getting that real cpuid would help.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Damn that was High tech. We got pong in the early 70's I think. Got first color TV in 1965. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BillBauman:
Thanks, man, it's definitely a Rev.4, no doubt. I had posted the cpuinfo way back when you guys were debugging the GSM stuff. I just check in term emulator to be 110% sure, it is a Rev.4 cpu.

I'll look at my VZW phone later today when I get back to it and let you know what the cpuinfo Rev. info is there.

Thanks for checking, and let me know what you hear back.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] innocent:
It's impossible to know 100% with out opening your phone and checking what is stamped on the cpu chip. Even Samsung said it's only about 95% accurate
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
System Tuner pulls the info from device for you. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BillBauman:
I didn't know either of these two facts. I will install System Tuner and confirm from there. Although, this is an extremely new hardware build ID, 13.01, the newest (and only) 13.xx build I've seen. So, I don't doubt it's a newer CPU build.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Yea. Under cpu info in system tuner will give same results as the ADB pull. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BillBauman:
Wait, if it's the same as ADB, doesn't that mean it's only 95% accurate as innoecentmod said?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
I don't know if I can believe that. If that is true there is no way to know and Samsung not gonna tell you. Both ways are pulling what the CPU says it is. Looks like Samsung covering it's ass for being caught. Didn't think we were smart enough to pull it. There are 50 Million out there that have no clue. We are a minority. And 50 million don't know this flaw exists. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BillBauman:
Okay, good to know. Well, everything on my end confirms Rev.4 CPU. I'll wait to see if Ziggy wants to work on it. Thanks for your input!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] innocent:
Again its only 95% accurate, even Samsung said it was
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Yea. Those odds of not getting a right output from CPU is slim. That like 1 in 2 million. :laugh::cool:

WiFi notification

I flashed this rom while only wiping cache and dalvik. It feels like I sinned something terrible not doing a full wipe. Honestly I feel like people who aren't willing to do a full wipe shouldn't be flashing roms. They especially shouldn't be posting in the rom thread about how things still work fine even if you don't follow the op's instructions explicitly.

That being said, I wiped only dalvik and cache, coming from 1.4 and I still have the the WiFi notification.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mpetruzz:
Flashed 1.5 and its sweet!! One question, can other themes be installed for the jelly bean keyboard?? If so how would you do it??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jlokos:
+1; i flashed over 1.4 with no issues. I also flashed imo's kernel (which we're not supposed to talk about). I love the swype keyboard so I didn't encounter the JB keyboard issue being reported. Everything is working for me. I love the center clock mod; I don't like the circle battery (but I can live with it). I much prefer a percentage rather than an icon. Excellent job Esc.

If you are doing a clean wipe, there is no need to wipe 3 times. Also, a clean wipe involves factory reset (data wipe) and format system. These wipe cache and dalvik. I note you did not format system. This maybe even more important coming from the CM10 rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] italysfinest327:
can someone post a screenshot of the modified notification bar?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] eschelon:
Did you reboot once?

Our script runs at each boot but the first time it runs, it does so before the database that contains the notification even exists as it is not created until right before you boot into the OS the first time

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hopesrequiem:

In that case try a full wipe in recovery, install the ROM, then let it boot once and before setting anything up or doing anything else, reboot once and see if it's still there.
