Good to hear

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DieselNY:
So we need to format to fat32 in order to flash roms from the card but then we are limited to files no larger than 4gb?

We can't keep it exfat, lose the ability to flash roms from it but gain the advantage of being able to save files over 4gb? Or can we just not use exfat with this card on this phone?

Sent from my Samsung Galaxy SIII
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Aquila76:
I could not get the phone to see the 64GB exFAT at all. I had to format it to FAT32 using guiformat. Running r125, Ziggy's121112 kernel, and a SanDisk 64GB microSDXC UHS1 (SDSDQUA-064G-U46A).

If you can get the phone to see the exFAT formatted card, in theory you could just store ROMs & nandroids on the internal SD and load up your HD porn on the external SD.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DieselNY:
Thanks. I like to keep some movies (not porn) on the SD card as well as business files that are huge folders over 4gb.

That's just not fair, Ziggy471.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ziggy471:
^^^^^ What he said, wasn't really that much that changed, only about 5 lines that mattered.

Not for much longer, I can now see exfat in recovery.

Odd, but I only have the Class 10 right now, should have the UHS 1 later this week. However, it is working just fine. I am on a /slightly/ newer than the 28Dec kernel, problem with being the kernel dev, you're normally ahead of others. However, nothing has really changed since then, just me trying to fix a few /oddities/, while TrevE and Esch blow up my GTalk working on the ROM.

I just updated to the 122812 kernel, and still no luck. For shiggles, I formatted the card in the phone and it just comes up with 'SD card safe to remove' and cannot mount it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
I've tried both 32 and 64 gb cards and mine not seeing yet either. Don't know what's up. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybfmv96:
Okay. I will install when they build frok k3 instead of j1.. why did they not update this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Aquila76:
Is your Class 10 SDHC or SDXC? There are minor differences in the read/write methods to enable larger capacities. I'm gonna bounce the stock kernel on to see if it's readable. I wasn't using the card when I was on the stock ROM, so I might have something weird / flaky with the card. If you want me to test anything, let me know, as I would be glad to help iron this out. I'm disabled, so I have plenty o' free time. :D

EDIT: It is an SDXC card like mine. Wouldn't think UHS 1 vs Class 10 would cause issues, but bleeding tech usually does. Odd it works fine in FAT32, but even the Stock kernel didn't read it in exFAT. Gonna nandroid and load stock ROM/kernel for results.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bajasur:
I am not seeing it or is this ROM still running on the K1 build and not the K3 official OTA?

Brand new to Synergy considering flashing now.

Thanks

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bajasur:
Hmm, rls120 in the OP says updated to K1, looks like that's where it's at.

Thanks!

New build is coming tho!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] stargate125645:
Class 10, UHS 1, 64GB formatted from the phone, doesn't work with even your stock kernel link, so perhaps it's something else Android is doing?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zelet:
I saw "new build" and ran to the DL site. :) I love this ROM.

What app can I use to theme this ROM?

---------- Post added at 08:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:53 PM ----------

And sorry. New to this ROM, will I need to wipe data + cache for the new build?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Metfanant:
wasabi's themes which use the Aroma installer work just fine on Synergy...there are 27 different choices now...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1929403

esch (the lead dev) always recommends a data wipe for EVERY build personally...as do i...but if im honest i don't always...i do however always wipe when the base is changed...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thornev:
Esch did not say voltage settings are disallowed with the kernel he includes in his ROM (note I said it's not HIS kernel. He includes a kernel by Ziggy so your question is better directed at Ziggy in his thread for his kernel). He said that you can edit the file that contains the voltage controls. He even gave us the path to the file. You need to go back a few posts and find his post.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybfmv96:
And one more question about this ROM.. Whats the backup file it made when I flashed it?.can I just delete that?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
That backup file is incase you mess with another rom and lose your IEMI. I would keep it incase you lose data. Saves a lot of time and headaches. Everytime you flash it gonna put it back anyway. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cvo515:
i may have to do a fresh install of this rom...coming from my current set up it'll hold me over
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] eschelon:
Full wipe is going to be REQUIRED with the next build. Plan accordingly.

I had the same problem. I have the 64GB SDXC 1 class 10 card (not SDHC). I had to get the fat32format utility (I tried to attach the file to this post, but the upload attempt resulted in "invalid file") and format the card on my PC. Then the phone recognized the card. Formatting the card from the phone did not work.

Well we did have a big breakthrough about 30 mins ago. We've literally spent the last two days on this thing. But now we can get into the OS with this framework mod, GApps all work without FC, data is working, although a small issue with location services and signal reporting (my current signal strength is -393867 dBa; you'd get better reception on the moon :p ) so we've got some cleanup to do. We'll hit it as hard as we can tomorrow.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ziggy471:
Well, I originally just did this for the ROM, so I have no thread. There is a bug report/issue tracking on my projects site. Now as for that /file/, it's really not a file, sysfs files are interfaces into the kernel from userland, so you don't edit them, you echo to them. This explains it a little bit better.

Well, my SDXC SanDisk Ultra, that's what they call it, but it also says Class 10 on the packaging, works just fine formatted to exFat, both in the ROM and in Recovery.

You hop in the TARDIS again son???? That may explain that REALLY low signal.

Yeah, TrevE and Esch are, they blow up my GTalk anytime I walk away from the computer. 100+ messages while mixing a screwdriver last night. lol

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thornev:
Interesting. And you're using Synergy r125 with VRBLK1 baseband? I wonder what else could cause such a difference in behavior. I'm not using the KT474 kernel as my signature says. I'm using the Synergy kernel. I probably should note that I never fully wipe (sounds gross) when I install. I never wipe data, just system and the 2 caches. I get tired of restoring all my apps and their settings manually every time I flash.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] DieselNY:
I just put the 64gb card in the phone and also got the safe to remove SD card thing. So I'm going to wait and hope someone comes up with a fix so we can use exfat.

Also how can we check what format the card is in. Is there like an SD card app that tells us these things?

Sent from my Samsung Galaxy SIII
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thornev:
My card came formatted in exFat so unless you formatted it, my guess is it's exFat.

If it makes you feel any better, the Synergy build on all your phones is running much better than the one on mine at the current moment :p But we're getting closer...

I had a similar bad experience with phone info.. I switched to cdmA and could not get it to revert to lte. I tried rebooting, wiping and re flashing rom, I even un installed phone info. Still only cdma.

Do you think that we could maybe hit his ROM up with some AROMA installation? I'd love to have some options for excluded / included features.

I have the visual voicemail and I need that app reput in, but not everyone does, so that is one thing AROMA would be great for.

ALSO! Google Wallet could be an optional install with AROMA and you could make a separate disclaimer for it saying that it's your fault if you mess up your NFC chips secure element.

P.S. eschelon, do you think that you could post this on some home territory as well? :D I used to love going on InfectedROM to find my mouth watering updates for Synergy and Eternity.

Also, do you think that you could add support to swap out the bootanimation via some of the root apps on the market?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] drbveb88:
Hey eschelon, great rom btw!

Could we incorporate something like "synergy tweaks"? Coming from the rezound almost every rom had some sort of tweaks, where you could change the clock location, color, Miui battery bar, lock screen options, etc...

Just a suggestion, it does not make or break your rom by any means.. It's my daily driver and I'm loving it. Thanks

Haha, the wife says thanks. Her family is here for the holidays and they've all slipped back into speaking pidgin together.

Holy crap I just waited 30+ minutes to wait for my current rom to backup via CWM. Is this because of all those darn blobs? or maybe its because I just put in a new battery and when I do that the dreaded media download battery drain happens for a while..maybe also contributing to it? Can't figure out why and how to avoid this happening next time I back up a rom.

That's odd. Backups take less than 5 minutes including boot up. You can change the type of back from dup (blob) to tar.

You backing up to internal or external? Internal is much quicker

Quick question.

How do I tell the date on my CWM touch backups? They all say 1970 and some odd numbers or dates.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] eschelon:
Alright, ROM will be released either tomorrow or Wednesday, so now you guys can keep a timeline in the back of your minds. We're still trying to figure this last mod out. We'll keep working on it but we won't withhold the ROM in the meantime. If the feature is done by then, we'll release it all as soon as its ready. If not, we'll release the ROM as it is in the repo now minus this one feature (which is still a pretty awesome build) and then add that last item later on when it's done.

I back up to internal, this is the 1st time it took so long, usually takes a few minutes so I have never seen this before.

I do not know how to change the back up to tar.

Also what about just deleiting the files on the blob folder or unistalling CWM altogether then reinstall? Or will that mess up something on my phone?

Apparently there is a setting to make old time backup. Have to use root explorer or Rom Manager to rename backups since all recoveries have wrong date. TWRP makes old time backups and can rename within recovery. TWRP still rocks. :laugh::cool:
