Have to activate in main settings. Lockscreen torch is not controlled from toggle. Synergy also doesn't like any data restore and can cause problems. It runs best with a complete wipe of system, data , dalvik and cache. Restore apps only without data for best performance. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] -Lawless:
Yep activated it in settings but didn't work. I then tried the actual app and nothing. from the toggles it stopped the UI.

Also found the cameras didn't work. I had factory rest, wiped dalvik, system, and cache but missed data.

I'll try that.

thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
If camera doesn't work need to revert to MB1 firmware or flash a MD3+ kernel such as LK or KT. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] -Lawless:
Ok, did a full wipe of everything including data and once going through the setup, I went right to the torch app in toggles and same issue, locks up the UI.

I am running ziggy 3.0.31 kernel this time and stock in the past attempts.

Maybe a bad download?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Could be a bad download. Also Ziggy kernel is MB1 and will break camera with MD3+ firmware. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] -Lawless:
rgr that.

MD5 checked out. I'll change up the kernel and see if that flies.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] -Lawless:
Kernel change out to LK did the trick.

Thanks again for your assistance.

Figured I would let you guys know since I'm thinking it might be a rom or pdroid related issue, but after installing the new Google maps app from the app store I was getting a no network connection error in the app. A simple restart fixed the issue and I was prompted to accept the new terms when I launched maps again.

Didn't have the issue on my RAZR maxx hd or my wife's DNA.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bucks130:
Hello all, been on V443 for a long time now (approx 3-4 months??) No issues at all and everything works well so didn't see much reason to flash the latest version.

Until the last 2-3 days or so, my phone has been dropping WiFi alot. As soon as I recycle power to it via the quick settings it comes right back on, then will shut off within a minute or so. I do a full reboot and it works fine for a few hours and then starts to happen again.

Any ideas? Anyone see the same issue? Can't imagine its the ROM but maybe the radio is having issues? Perhaps some app updated and is screwing things up. I'm kinda lost on it.

If any other details needed, let me know. No major changes done to the ROM, no themes, running nova prime. Stock kernal. Thanks for any help!

Hope its NOT my radio!!!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pepperdax:
I had the same problem I am also running 443.

I'm running stock kernal

I cleared dalvic cache and it cleared up.

Quick question to the masses...

Used Navigation app and I thought it was odd that I didn't get street names with my turn directions (all I get is "turn left", "turn right") I have noticed that I don't have the Google TTS on the phone (only Samsung's). So the question is any ideas on where the announced names go? Was it always gone or did I miss something? According to the WWW, it looks like it should work but so far nada.

Ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Weioo:
So development is dead on this, yes?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] haza12d:
Latest Map Update should fix this. If not, you can always try to Dirty Flash and select the Google TTS option... I think there's one in Aroma where it says that it needs it.

ASOP lockscreen shortcuts

After a quick search, I didn't find an answer to this. Sorry if I missed it, but is there any way to edit the shortcuts on the ASOP lockscreen in r484, or is it just a "take what we give you" kind of setup right now?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Can't edit. It is same way on most TW roms. :cool:

Hello everyone. I have a small problem. I use the aux jack in my car to play music while my bluetooth is synced in my ear.

Sorry if I missed it, does anyone have a flashable copy of the stock kernel that works with this ROM? I've tried every choice in Ziggy's and I have problems with all of them. I'd like to try another kernel before I end up trying a different ROM.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pepperdax:
You can Dirty flash the stock kernel through Aroma if your still on VRBMB1 firmware.

It may be time for me to say goodbye to Synergy. It's an amazing rom, but I got a new job and the corporate Exchange server wants to use security features that Synergy seems to have omitted. I'm still waffling, but since they offer me $50 reimbursement for phone costs, I figure I should go back to stock. It's going to be a sad day.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobcaruso:
This rom is waaaaaay long in the tooth, even if it has multi-window, it's missing so much from 4.1.2, and hasn't been updated since April, so I understand why it's being abandoned, there's a bunch of true 4.1.2 roms out there
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pnyboy27:
This ROM has been working fairly well for me. Recently, I'm having a few problems that never happened before, either from using an older version of this ROM, or prior to this week. Here are some of my issues, and any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

First issue: GPS seems to take a long time for me to be found. It doesn't matter if I'm using Google's navigation app, Waze, or just a GPS locate app. I have all the switches turned on, including WiFi.

Second issue: Today, while trying to take a few pictures with my camera, my phone would turn off. I tried using several cameras to see if it was just certain ones, but both the stock 4.2 and stock Samsung camera gave me issues.

Any help? Please and thank you!

In Aroma, chose Synergy recommended install. at Optimizing/data Filesystem in gs3 mode with fsck. Progress is 90% and it's been 10-15 minutes. If anyone is still up and has done this wondering if it is normal. I will not do anything for along time as I know it takes a while with some functions, just wondering about this though. Thanks

edit: using the latest CWM touch 6.3??

Also, what do I do to get back to CWM at this point if it hangs here?

Can take 20-30 minutes depending on how bad the blocks are on partition. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] iclickjohn:
Thank goodness your up prdog1. Thanks. but it has been close to 40 minutes and i am still there (90% Optimizing /data filesystem in gs3 mode with fsck)

Should I keep hanging on? if I need to move on, what is the best approach to get back to CWM and maybe I'll do a custom install instead. Just wondering if it has anything to do with the external card. It's been jacked up lately with a funky backwards U in front of folders etc.

EDIT: FWIW, I did a battery pull and with vol up, home and power went into recovery and did a custom install, left off the fsck and also went stock kernel. I'm booting fine now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:

Does the multi-carrier support work by changing apns, csc files, and other similar things that aren't going to brick the phone if someone was to install Sprint stuff on a Verizon phone? Because if it doesn't brick, is there a way to override the automatic detection? Some secret flag in the synergy configuration file or something?

It works on mine.

How GPSingly interesting.

I turned on Google now and my GPS location went to East NoWhere. I am not saying that is what caused it but it was in the same time frame. Yesterday I ran all sorts of GPS tests and had no issues. I turned off Google Now rebooted and GPS was fine.

Now I can not duplicate the issue which I hate because I am like "Monk" when it comes to my operating systems. The same scenario did not happen on my test unit.

I am running Imo 12-2 and 1.5.

Be Safe All!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] HolyGrail:
It has something to do with Google Now I believe.

Maybe this tip will help....others in the comments talked about similar issues happening to them and fixed it.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sensui123:
Eschelon, wanted to ask you since the question got buried from all the complements for the rom lol. For the hotspot toggle/stock verizon hotspot option, did you implement the framework mod from electron73/das7982? Is that why it doesn't ask for the confirmation for subscription to verizon tethering for $20 when I turned it on momentarily (usually it asks me since I'm on the unlimited data plan)? Trying to clear this up to be sure....I'd use wifi tether but why bother if if it's all nicely done with the toggle in the rom.

Also, has anyone got that google voice dialer to work properly? Or is it just totally borked.....I swear most of the times it doesn't hear what I say (call etc etc, number or contact) and when it does, it calls something totally wrong. I do wish the feature worked better since it's much better to use than S voice on the dialer pad. =P

Okay, I ran this from a terminal emulator:

sqlite3 /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db "update secure set value = '0' where name = 'wifi_networks_available_notification_on' and value = '1'"

The wifi notification is now gone. I don't see anything wrong with the syntax ... perhaps it should be run later in init? Or a sleep or something? I dunno.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] eschelon:
I did not include the arrays.xml hack. If you were able to successfully authenticate then perhaps Verizon is doing something on their end.

Remember: Though they were recently fined for all the tethering garbage, they are still claiming that the FCC changes should only apply to tiered data users. They say that it still does not apply to those who are still grandfathered with unlimited data.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Haro912:
I don't know what exactly was done but I know that there is a mod floating around that enables us to use Verizons tether app and not have to worry about provisioning and/or paying for it.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sensui123:
Yeah that's what I'm trying to clarify. Because I still had the pop up asking to confirm subscription when using the stock hotspot toggle when I ran the root66 stock rooted verizon rom since I'm on the unlimited data plan. Moving to synergy, I noticed the pop up is gone when you active the hotspot/toggle from the notification pulldown....so I wanted to confirm what has changed.

I see the fix from electron73 even that he says to flash over 1.3-1.5 but I didn't want to go flashing something before I verify what exactly is going on first.

I think you need to look @ this thread and make sure you're uninstalling the correct files using titanium backup:

prdog, since you're probably the most venerable one here with all the amazing work you do, I figure I'd ask you here about a pet peeve I've had for eons with android.

Choosing damn default applications all the damn time!

Does you know of any fix for this? If Windows users had to set their default browser every time Microsoft put out an update to Internet Explorer, they'd have killed Bill Gates by now. Once a default is set I never again want to be asked what to use no matter if I updated the app in question, the other apps I could have chosen but obviously didn't for a reason, or I install or update some app that suddenly gains that capability.It can't be that hard to set default flags and to prevent any apps from clearing them by merely being installed or updated.*Has anyone else had this gripe? I can't believe I'm alone. Is there any workarounds? PDroid? Some app? Anything?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
I have to look. It doesn't give you the use always option. There is an app in market that uses old ICS way but not sure if it sets default. :cool:

So I've been on 484 since it came out, switched from Ziggy to stock a couple of months ago because I, unfortunately, have one of those phones that dislikes his kernel.

Everything has been going well but something must have updated over the last 3 days and it is causing lockups where I have to do a battery pull. It is happening like once a day (and it has never happened since I switched to stock). Is anyone else having this problem? Hopefully whatever the troublesome app will get an update soon and all will be back to awesome.
