I am at a 10 Hr wait for r55 right now lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mytoy1:
I got r55 downloaded in 2 min Max has to be setting on your internet
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] voodoomanx:
What method did you use the first time? EZ unlock seems to be popular from the play store.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] doeboy711:
Where is the setting Max found at? I normally download it in 2 to 5 minutes.

Edit: I canceled the download about 3 or 4 times now and finally I have it downloading at 26 minutes remaining. It's not the greatest but it beats 10 hours lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Brian Gove:
I'm a little confused here by this imei stuff. (Its not hard to do sometimes lol)

Are we supposed to use this attatched zip when/if we experience a loss? Flash it in recovery?

Our do we flash it before loss in order to backup shtuff?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Schaweet:
Flash it now (or install nightly 55 as it is included) and then you have the backup zip. In case you lose imei you have the keys backed up as a zip in your sdcard/synergyrom/backups folder. Then you could just flash the zip. TrevE warned that you shouldn't do this unless your imei is gone. Don't try it just to try it. Kind of a last resort thing from what I gather.

Edit: flashing the zip now only backs up the keys and creates a zip in the before mentioned backup folder to be flashed only if you lose imei.

A little confusing at first but you are flashing a zip that creates a backup zip.

not an error message...its a warning that ROMs have the ABILITY to flash a stock recovery...

1. there really isn't such a thing as a kexec recovery...just a recovery that supports it...they work just fine with non-kexec ROMs

2. im using the latest CWM (6.0.1.2) and the warning is still there)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pschatz12:
I second this!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hub_cap:
How do I switch recoveries?

I'm having the same issue and yes I'm using the 6.0.1.0 version. How do we get an updated version?

Edit: Sounds like it's not really anything to be concerned about.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Metfanant:
if you want the latest CWM go here and you can get 6.0.1.2 in either touch or non-touch variety as an ODIN flash...you will still get the same warning though...its not an error...

First off just wanted to say that this ROM is great! Still on V1.1 and have had zero problems with amazing battery life. I haven't yet made the move to V1.2 so this may already be addressed, but I wanted to make a request for V1.3 or afterwards. Wanted to see if you guys can bake in music controls on the lockscreen. Had this feature on most of the roms I used to run on my OG Inc and have gotten really dependant on it.

I mainly use Google music. I know that the stock music player kind of has this but you have to pull down notifications to get it. Would be nice to have on the screen itself. Hopefully this can make it soon. You guys rocked this rom and looking forward to what comes next! Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NotATreoFan:
I listen to Google Music at the gym, and v1.2 has lockscreen controls for skipping tracks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] erept0r:
Very cool! I wonder if they'll implement volume rocker controls. I find it convenient to be able to long press a volume button to skip forward or backwards a track.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bucks130:
Awesome. Thanks for the info. Upgrading to V1.2 shortly. Next time I'll get the latest version before asking for new features!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pjamv5:
I assume you're using the Play Music app? I just fired up a track on it, and I'm not seeing the lock screen controls. Standard swipe screen lock?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] NotATreoFan:
Yep, Play Music. I have used the PIN lockscreen and the Face Unlock screen. Both of them give me music controls.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jprow507:
I have yet to flash this but will probably give it a try this weekend. Thanks for your work on this!

Is there anyway you can bake in USB mass storage capabilities in this ROM?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ty07allstar:
On the swipe unlock there is no music controls but on the face and pin there is. Who knows why?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zanktank:

I would just like to ask how's that Google Now along. That's my number one thing I'm waiting for.

Also do you guys know how we could get Imo's lean kernel on this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] eschelon:
Not only will we be adding custom battery icons soon, but we'll be scrubbing out the fugly green and moving the blue. This ROM has only been out two days so we're working as fast as we can to get the ROM the way you guys want it :)

init.d scripting to change buffersize, and force enable reuse/recycle/scaling and decrease timeout scripting

I'm not actually working personally on Google Now since there are already a ton of devs committed to it. I've spoken with them and they say they are working on porting the Jelly Bean TTS engine. Once that's done we'll ditch S voice and replace it with full on Google Now

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Metfanant:
im pretty sure on the stock launcher you can...on the Nexus (running JB) swipe up on the screen is the gesture to launch Google Now...so i just used the swipe gestures in Nova to make an up swipe launch it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Brian Gove:
Nope, you made it clear with the first part. I had a few thoughts in mind as to what was going on and that was sorta one of them. That flashing the attachment/r55 would create a flashable backup.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] natemiller82:
I don't reset GW at all when flashing nightlies, I just re-flash the Google wallet zip I have, then reboot. Works perfectly so far, r55
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] brockkk:
That's with 6012. I'll just flash it again. Thank you.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] td1320:
It works for me, but the app that gets launched seems hit or miss. I have Home button double tap to launch Google Voice Search but sometimes it launches Google Now with Google Voice Search open in the background waiting for your voice command. This seems to happen a lot on 4.0.4 based Roms. 4.1 Roms allow flawless Google now and Google Voice operation.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] boynamedstacy:
Wait, so you don't change your build.prop each time? Which wallet zip are you flashing? Mind sharing? :D

Eschelon just wanted to let you know that you have GoogleEars.apk in the /data/app folder, it needs to be in /system/app for the widget to work. For those of you who don't know what GoogleEars is, it is like shazam and soundhound but a widget made by google and works well tho it doesn't have all the features they have but that's how I am simple so i like it. :D Btw I will include the Transparent GoogleEars attached to this post.

Does anyone have a blue center clock mod that works with r55? I read a ways back that the old one didn't work? Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] clambert11:
LOL! I like that. "so far". :)

Personally, I'm not taking any risks with that NFC secure element right now. But honestly, I didn't know this worked. I thought you'd have to reset and modify the build.prop file every time. It freaked me out the first time I flashed without wiping and it was gone. :) It must be in the system apps, huh? Maybe I'll grow a pair. It's not really a huge deal because I'm usually good about doing a nandroid before flashing anyway.

Thanks for the info though. Good to know. :highfive:

Don't blame the ROM. Software can't brick you unless you messed up and didn't check md5. Even then you can easily recover. Don't be a noob and yell at the dev for YOUR mistake

Plus the only way to sought brick with a Rom is bad M.D.5 or you're flashing on incorrect hardware like a gsm s3 if you have a bad M.D.5 the the Rom just plainly won't install I think everyone should backup first the install if you don't the don't fkn cry about it it's your own fault

location not correct?

Hey guys, i was wondering if location in google maps is spot on for any one here? On stock when i go to maps and find my location is always like 30-50 feets from where i am. But Synergy is always 2 blocks away. Is this a hardware issue or the phones just have crappy location/gps services?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] voodoomanx:
Mine is good up to 13feet. Locks quick.no problems.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] WizeGuyDezignz:
My suggestion would be to just use cwm instead.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dimeloklk:
Mine locks really quick as well, but not at the right location. Is there any app that can make my location/gps more accurate? If i have wifi on it does get really close but keeps moving around.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hub_cap:
I don't think its the ROM... mine locks solid and close. After the initial flash if may take a few seconds but after that its quick. Make sure you're wiping data before flashing...just to be safe. Some say it doesn't matter but with GPS I think E recommended it a while back if you were having GPS issues....and I was with 1.7.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dimeloklk:
Well i always wipe cache and dalvik and then do the factory reset from cwm. After that i install the rom. Should i go back to one of the early roms and see if i get the same issue?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] C0ntr0lfr33k:
Wasn't bashing the devs... just a statement on my experience. It was a soft brick easily recoverable. No need to flame.

It was close, but not as close.....I'm running r55 currently.

It is gone.... have you rebooted after the initial boot??? If not, do so as the OP instructs so that it will dissapear. :)

I still haven't had a chance to flash r55 yet, been busy all day. Got a question tho. I've used a couple diff apps trying to have the CPU speeds set where I want, ROM toolbox etc...., I think using the different ones has left a bit of clutter for the phone to stumble over now because I'm getting weird hiccups. Would I need to do a complete wipe before flashing r55 to erase any trace of this? Or will just a dirty flash work in resetting all OC information back to the way it came with the ROM???
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hitman3984:
Battery life seemed to drop off drastically with r52. Android System was taking more battery then display. Did a full whipe, deleted everything, flashed r55, dark horse rises theme and the sound mod and now the phone is stuck in the synergy rom boot animation.

Battery pulls are such a pain with the phone in a defender. lol..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Schaweet:
Just use hashdroid from the market.

On the far right of the nightly rom there is a MD5 link. Click it and the MD5 shows up. Copy that with long press and paste it into the last tab on hashdroid.

Run the MD5 of the downloaded file on the second tab in hash droid. Paste it into the third tab other line. Click compare. Done.
