What did you flash before Synergy. If it happened before it has something to do with how you are flashing or data locked in your device that is not wiping. It is not a known bug. Only thing reported close has been reports that flashing while on wifi can cause this. If ever flashed AOSP some files seem to want to persist after wipe and could be associated with the RIL. :cool:

Esch is there to add the toggle for nfc in the status bar? Lol also does anybody know why my wifi keeps reconnecting every 2 minutes or so? Just started happening and i did wipe caches and fix permissions and tried dirty flashing and still same thing. Not like I use it much considering I have unlimited data :D

Weird issue...this is my first custom rom on a GS3. Everything works great except GPS. When GPS is on, Google Maps never 'detects it' so it won't give me the option to navigate to a location, only get directions. It also won't show where I am on the map.

Common issue? Anyone know a fix?

BTW, GPS/Navi worked fine on stock Jelly Bean OTA.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] stargate125645:
Does the multiwindow use of back button long press to activate in any way modify how the system reacts to a single press? I still cannot get the back button on my external device to cooperate. For example, S Voice makes the system wait to determine if there is a double press of the home key coming. It doesn't make sense that the back key no longer functions as it should when using an external device.

Car Bluetooth Problem Persists

Still having bizarre behavior on clean superwipe 290 (w/ Ziggy) with my car's bluetooth audio. Either the phone disconnects (doesn't seem to happen at the beginning of almost every call like on 147), or it forces the car to disconnect (like the phone menu disappears as if the bluetooth was deactivated). Thought it could be the car module failing but only happens on this ROM (and the car disconnect only since the 290 clean).

Pretty bizarre, love the JB but last time I had bluetooth on Synergy was on 1.7 ICS. Any troubleshooting tips/suggestions? Is this a kernel issue? (I just tried a dirty 290 to stock, testing later)

Music streaming seems fine, just phone audio that is having problems. I see lots of bt problem posts in the thread, most pre the 16x 'fix'. Any suggestions appreciated, I'll update this with the results.

Thanks!

UPDATE: Stock or Ziggy's Kernel didn't produce a difference - behavior (initial pair fine, then a "forced disconnect" of the car bt system) persists.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Skyroket:
I'm on build 290, as well.

In addition to the occasional disconnects, I'm also having trouble with audio crackling on Bluetooth audio streaming. At first, I thought it was just the stereo being dumb, but on any other audio mode (AM/FM, CD, A/V Input) it has no crackling.

2011 Ford Explorer, Microsoft Sync. Sorry I don't know what version of Sync, to compare with you other Sync guys out there. 2012 models are on a different version path than 2011 (sigh).

Also crackles on my Bluetooth earpiece which is a Jabra Stone 2, but it doesn't really matter what model it is because this clearly means there's a problem with the phone BT. I am not an expert on it, so I really can't say if it's some firmware or driver or whatever. Just stating my experience.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jhanford:
Tried installing r290 and it failed to boot up. Now when I try to reflash TWRP is asking me for a password (for /data I presume). Is there a default password set on the install? I have not set one myself.

ODIN doesn't seem to get me around this.

EDIT: Never mind. Went with the "Format Data" option in TWRP. Now my /data is nice and clean :(

Increase kernel voltage if on Ziggy. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] silenthatred:
So reading over this thread...lockscreen auto rotate, which I know would piss me off before even seeing it, there really is no option to disable it? Also, blocking mode, aka do not disturb mode. Apparently this was a Verizon removed thing? Other GS3 users seem to have it on other carriers. Can we get it back?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] iflawdya:
Lots of lag using the stock messaging app. Also having issues syncing contacts after installing this rom. And losing data connection completely a few times.

Re: ☆ ★ | ROM | SynergyROM VZW S3 | JB 4.1.1 | Multiwindow | PDroid | 1-23-13 r290 |★

No offense but either you did something wrong or you need to increase your voltage a bit.

As far as losing data, that happened to me when I restored my old device ID via TiBu.

If you do a superwipe and only restore apps without their data, you really shouldn't have any issues at all besides your phone might not like the undervolt.

Other than that it may be user error. Just saying.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] krazienluv10:
been on the rom for about a week now... no major probems, but I am noticing lag as well. my main gripe is to wake up the phone which takes a good sec or two. I get soo anxious I accidently press it twicefast and turns the screen on then off which is a lil annoying. hope this is improved on the next build
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] iflawdya:
None taken. Your right I did not increase voltage. Im not sure I read that I needed to do that. As far as losing data, I mean mobile network. I lose it completely. No 4g, 3g nothing, nadda! Thanks for your help.

Re: ☆ ★ | ROM | SynergyROM VZW S3 | JB 4.1.1 | Multiwindow | PDroid | 1-23-13 r290 |★

Did you restore anything? I completely lost data too and had to Odin back to stock. I restored some data....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] iflawdya:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] iflawdya:
Ill try both suggestions. Thank you for your help.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Malaclypse5:
Hey prdog, thanks for the suggestion - seems that this works well for those with the static issues (I'll update my post as well) - but with stock kernel I'm having the flat out disconnects or 'killed' paired device, any ideas? I did dirty flash 290 w/stock over a superwipe 290 w/ziggy, but that should have easily updated kernel, correct?

Thanks!

Update: Looks like my car issues persists even on CleanROM, trying my non JB restore to troubleshoot. Anyone have a link to 1.7 ICS? Looks like the old archive doesn't have it anymore.

Update2: Looks like this is more common than I expected with VW/Audi and many other cars. If anyone has any suggestions, or a link to 1.7, please update, thanks! (Many users report that JB causes the frequent disconnects. Kernel voltage should fix crackling, but this is a BT stack issue. Check your car maker website and see the BT stack they support, many are only reporting up to 4.0.4).

It will copy them all to your Gmail in a folder you specify.

I have used that in the past, but I didnt like just a ton of random emails, I like having the back and forth all in a thread. I use sms backup and restore, but like I said, the 40k+ doesnt always seem to copy.

As much as I hate to think I may need to do this, should I do a full wipe and start from scratch with the 290 rom?

Re: ☆ ★ | ROM | SynergyROM VZW S3 | JB 4.1.1 | Multiwindow | PDroid | 1-23-13 r290 |★

Pretty mich the same here except I never superwiped since I already wipe data, cache, dalvik, and system on TWRP. So IMO, the superwipe is unnecessary (but that's just me).

I also restore apps and texts from previous versions of ROMs (Touchwiz ROMs) and I don't have a problem.

OMG! ZERG RUSH!!! ㅋㅋㅋ ON MY GS3!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Did superwipe cause it was there. Can't ever wipe too much. Wipe never hurt any rom. I restore apps just never restore any data to these new builds cause I only want to flash once. Not worth it. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 1000cleverlines:
okay everyone's been saying bluetooth has this crackling noise... i've never had that problem until today when i was using 8tracks (a music streaming app). i kept hearing crackling the whole time, and it was on the stock headphones that come with the phone and aux cable. i thought it was the weirdest thing ever, but i've never had this problem pre-r290. poweramp works fine though, never crackles with headphones.

also been having about two times a day where the phone doesn't wake up and requires a battery pull to restart. kind of an annoyance, especially cause i have to take my case off the phone to get to the battery. never had this issue on r147 (or really any issues)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AndyMan386:
also my phone went from booting up in like 10-20 secs to now taking like 2 min..

I didn't realize how crappy MMS pictures turn out on the other end.. I'm using AOSP messaging.. is there a fix for this? I used to see settings for how large MMS messages get, but that's not an option that I've seen on any ROM lately (4.1, 4.2).

I'm hoping so.. text details are getting lost. And by text details, I mean if I send a screenshot with text in the picture...

If no fix... can I just dirty flash TW messaging with a cache and dalvik wipe?

Screw SMS backup, just use titanium backup and they can backup the SMS and MMS. I used backup SMS and MMS without any problem.

When you enter the titanium backup then click menu and click backup data to XML. It will show 4 list and you just click message (SMS & MMS). Very simple :D

Same goes to restore in titanium backup if you want restore your SMS and MMS.

Been running r290 for almost a week without any problems. Then I installed LightFlow on Sunday morning. I've now had crashes and lock-ups. One time I could hear the screen unlock and hear other sounds, but the display never turned on. The other time my phone just froze trying to get into settings. Both times were after a notification (text, missed call.)

Now, this didn't happen until LightFlow, so I've uninstalled it. But I would like to use it. I used LightFlow without much problems way back on Synergy r73 (ICS).

I spoke too soon r290 appears to be a no-go for me. Lost txt again on K3 modem after it worked fine for a couple days - nothing new installed nor SMS-related apps updated, just stopped receiving SMS and would take 5+ minutes to send one, during which time the phone would grow increasingly hot.

Flashed K1 modem and did cache wipe - same behavior.

Flashed G7 modem (which seems to have the best speed on LTE and "just works" on all prior Synergy releases) but lost both data AND sms continued to misbehave.

Did a factory reset while on G7 modem, set my google accounts back up and had data until a reboot, then nothing. This is with no data restored at all, no apps restored, nothing. I didn't even bother to test SMS at that point & just restored my r169 backup. I'll try again with the next release, I guess.

It's too bad though, I loved r290 when it was working.
