Been a die hard Synergy follower and have never had an issue with any of them until r326. So is it the AOSP lock screen causing the catastrophic failures? I used the AOSP lock screen on r290 without a hitch. If this is confirmed to be the issue then I'll devote more attempts at it tomorrow (already spent 7+ hours today). At first I thought it might have been ADW Launcher EX but then on a re-flash ADW went on fine and I thought I was good to go until I rebooted.

I'm still a little old school, wipe three times in recovery plus the superwipe in aroma. I chose NOT to have the landscape mode and each time I've had to pull battery and wipe and start again the screen would come on, not know whether to be in portrait or landscape, go off, etc

prdog have you enabled AOSP lock screen?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Also themed notification bubbles work. I prefer that all device options work. Get Widget locker and you can have AOSP any way you want. :laugh::cool:

Nope. Don't care for it. Have used WidgetLocker version. Much more configurable and the old day lag is pretty much gone. :cool:

Don't have too. Been crashing since incorporated in rom. AOSP and TW don't play well together. At least you can't blame on rotation. I have no Lockscreen or Homescreen rotation. Broke both mine on purpose. Unless you can change configuration on Homescreen it is worthless. Should be like 7x4. Whole page doesn't show. Only time I need is in car and IBolt Dock rotates anyway. :laugh::cool:

For some reason my phone hates ziggy kernel. Random reboots. Even in the last few releases.

:(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] KGBxxx:
LOLZ!!! Well f it, i'll try again and just let it sit there for 30 min. Hopefully phone doesn't catch fire.

EDIT: I flashed another ROM, then reflashed synergy with full wipe (internal 4ext) and all is good. Tempted to try AOSP lockscreen again but don't want to go through this hassle again. :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] suki7474:
I love this rom! how often should you do a superwipe? I did it two builds ago.andeverything has been running smooth. just wondering if I should do another superwipe or.just wipe the data. thanks guys you are the best!

too bad ziggy's don't play well with my phone. hate those random reboots while on the phone. stock is still fast w/ seeder anyway so i'm happy. i really love the lockscreen torch, not a big fan of ink.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Unheard:
I have the same issues with Ziggy's, not sure why. I usually switch over to LK, and then the rom works slick for me. I've tried all the tricks for Ziggy, but for some reason it hates me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] eschelon:
Yep, you had bad blocks and the updater either fixed them or marked them as bad so that they wouldn't be used anymore. Either way, this is a perfect example of letting it wait at that 18% to fix any bad blocks if the ROM finds them. Takes a while to fix sometimes, but once it's all fixed then you're good to go and you don't have to worry about bad blocks anymore

Yea, looks like I'd avoid the AOSP lockscreen for now, guys. Not sure what's going on with it, but we'll take a look at it. Use at your own risk for now. Thanks for letting us now

Which options did you choose in the AROMA config?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] arl16:
OK. Finally got around to leaving my old HTC Thunderbolt and joined the SG3 party. Doubled down and got one for my wife as well. Reading around looked like Synergy was the place to go, so I dove in head first. Started w/ 290 just the other day on mine, and loved it. Updated this morning to 326. Couple (hopefully) quick questions/problems:

Phone 1 (Mine)

Backed up all apps w/ Titanium (from 290)

Trying to restore them on 326, and a good chunk of the apps are crossed out. When trying to restore them in batch mode, it zips through them, says the restore is complete, but they don't restore.

When I try to restore them individually, the backup is there, but there's no option to restore.

I tried verifying them, and it comes back saying there's an error on the backups

Searched forums/Googled around, only tip I found were to try fixing permissions (didn't help)

Any other ideas? I'd really rather not install the 100 or so apps I have one at a time!

Phone 2 (Wife's)

When installing 326 w/ Aroma, strangely, it gets all the way through the install, says it's done, and when I push 'Next' it freezes.

I let it sit for 10 minutes, and it just stays on the same screen, w/ no reaction to pressing the screen.

Pulled the battery, reboot, and it comes up and 326 IS in fact installed, BUT

Get the "Unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped" message every reboot, and then "Unfortunately com.sec.sprextension has stopped". Further, every time I start navigating around the phone, these messages continue to pop up.

My understanding is that these are Sprint errors?! I double-checked the MD5 - I got the Verizon download!

Even crazier, I see Sprint Zone installed on her phone. How could this be? Even used the same memory card as the install on mine! I'm completely confused.

Maybe just too tired to see with a 3 month old getting me up at 4am (for no real good reason - just wanted to say hi)

Anyway, any ideas on these issues would be great. Thanks in advance!!

(Oh - should mentioned I wiped everything - Dalvik, factory reset, etc on both)

Sometimes you have to do a clean install, not really that big of a deal.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Sounds like you have wrong recovery. The original CWM recovery was Sprint based. Aroma looks at recovery to decide carrier so you get the wrong rom. Need to install newest version of CWM or TWRP and reflash the rom. :cool:

This is actually a very smart and maybe the easiest way to backup your internal SD as /sdcard is just a symlink to /data/media.

What I don't get, and this isn't a question specifically for you, is a "super wipe" is supposed to remove any corrupt files in the /data partition. However, if you adb pull all of /data/media, then wipe, then push everything back, wouldn't you be pushing back all the corrupt files you just removed?

If you turn off ripple effect under lock screen options you will not freeze anymore. This will cause phone to freeze under any other lock screen option than stock.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] letinsh:
Great question. If you use Root Explorer and look at the /data folder, there is quite a bit in there other than the /data/media/ folder. When I do the pull, it grabs everything out of there. I'll wipe, flash rom, and boot up. Once all the ROM/Android specific files and folders are in the internal SD card from the fresh flash, I'll go through my backup and delete those files/folders before pushing the backup back to the phone. Essentially, I'm pushing back DCIM, some music, some pdf's I keep for reference, and the database used by my fuel mileage tracker....

I only put back the "user data" (ie my stuff that I care about, not apk or rom specific files).

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] PyroXian:
Thanks a bunch for that troubleshooting - my data loss and sms sending speed issues seem to have been resolved by omitting the sqlite mods. I've got 24 hours and half a dozen reboots along with a dozen app & data restores, half a dozen app updates, and a couple of new app installs since superwipe and re-install of 290 w/o sqlite mods. Everything seems to be great other than the usual media scan sucking up my battery life which I'm sure will settle down here shortly.

I'm now getting ready to jump to r326 & will see how that fares compared to 290 w/o the sqlite mods.

Then don't flash. Because I'm sure the developers don't want every lazy person giving bug reports over dirty flashes and sending our devs chasing smoking dragons.. if you dirty flash keep your comments to yourself.

I did the superwipe ext4 when going to r290, I assume I don't have to do it again going to r326, correct?

Just the normal factory reset, cache and dalvek is good?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] eschelon:
Those of you with kernel issues, try upping your voltages.

As to the comments regarding clean vs dirty flashing: We do always recommend a wipe. However, we understand that many of you try to avoid having to setup your stuff all the time and so we try to be sensitive to that. In fact, we've only REQUIRED a wipe 2 or 3 times since this ROM was released last summer, and there have been a TON of updates since then so that's saying something. But again, we do try to to be sensitive to the fact that some avoid wiping as often as they can.

I do recommend if you haven't already, skip lunch at Wendy's today and pick yourself up a license for TiBu with the few bucks you saved at lunch and be done with it. It's cheaper on his website than through the market. Then write yourself a little guide with a few bullet points of settings you prefer, homescreen setups, etc. Try to stick to restoring only apps + their data. Some simple system items likes wifi passwords are fine, but avoid any Samsung/Touchwiz/Verizon apks as we change these from time to time and if you restore them then you're overwriting our changes.

If it makes a difference, I practice what I am preaching here. I've wiped as many as 200 times in a single day and there are times when we're working on bug fixes for you guys that I run my phone naked for as long as 2 weeks at times. Nothing more than signing into Google to pull down my contacts and wifi passwords. Nothing else. So trust me when I say I understand the pains of having to restore data with TiBu all the time ;)

If this is truly too painful then before each Synergy update and flash, make yourself a nandroid. Then since it's a free country (at least for now ;) ) you are welcome to try a dirty flash and see how it rolls. If you're getting crazy errors, FCs, etc that others aren't reporting, you've got files in your /data folders that are conflicting with the new ROM. That's the price you pay for running a custom ROM. Your options at this point are to either a) go back to your nandroid, or b) wipe it all. You're probably not going to be able to get your old /data to work with the new ROM at this point. I'm not going to tell you what to do 99% of the time, so you are at liberty to choose. But it's impossible to make an updated ROM work with all dirty flashes all the time. It would be nice, but it just can't be done.

I've got another post here that talks a little more about this, so read here for some more info:

I just installed Synergy for the second time (was on 1.3, installed 1.4), and I thought I'd record my experience for those who haven't done it yet so you'll know what to expect.

Made sure Titanium Backup had a current backup of all installed user apps. Deleted all uninstalled app backups so that they wouldn't install when I restore.

Did a ROM backup with ROM Manager (non-touch version of Clockworkmod)

Downloaded Synergy v 1.4

Used Rom Manger to Install ROM from sdcard. Chose Wipe Data and Cache and Wipe Dalvik Cache.

After ClockWorkMod recovery finished, the phone rebooted.

I then had to choose my language, tell Verizon System Backup I didn't want it to do anything, and sign in to my Google Account.

I got a notification that I had 3 updates, one of which was Titanium Backup. I installed the updates.

Re-paired all bluetooth devices

Started Titanium Backup. It told me that my Android ID had changed and asked me what to do. I told it to keep the new ID. SInce I had told TB to backup its settings before I flashed, it automatically restored them. This may have caused Chrome-to-phone to stop working. I started chrome-to-phone, told it to disconnect my phone, then connected it again, and it started working again. Probably better to keep the old id.

Did a "Restore missing apps with data" in Titanium Backup

Then I restarted.

I use SwipePad, but it wasn't enabled until I opened the app and closed it again. Same with SmartScreenOff, Lux, and Tasker.

Turned Smart Stay back on in the Display Settings

Turned NFC back on under Wireless/More settings

Enabled Swype and made it default in Language and Input settings

Allowed Tasker in Accessibility > Services

Disabled Keytones, and set Device Ringtone and default notifications in Sound settings

Reset default gmail notification for my account inside the gmail app.

Reset default gTalk notification for my account inside the gTalk app.
