Link in op brings you to newest download page, not change log/commits.

Love the camera mods. Been waiting patiently for the volume-shutter mod
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] im_on_fire:
Lol no worries. Thanks for the response and update!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] eschelon:
If by volume shutter mod you mean where you can snap a pic by pressing the volume key, that's in there :)

In picture mode hit volume down to instant snap, or volume up to focus then snap

In video mode hit volume up to start recording, volume down to pause recording, then volume up again to resume :)

We need to try a dump of stats first! I'm a noob and need some help with this one. Anyone?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sudermatt:
How will we know we need to do "the needful" (factoryreset)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] im_on_fire:
Also, starting with r20 we have included a new battery script that you can run to help pin down battery issues. Here are the steps you must follow in order to make the battery stats dump work properly

1) Charge device to 100%. Reboot device while leaving on charger. Once device is in Android and settled down unplug device

2) DO NOT touch your charger throughout the day until the battery is completely dead. Battery stats are reset on unplug of any type of charger (this includes plugging into your computer via USB) so you will muck things up. Once you are at ~5% power continue on to next steps

3) Go to Settings -> Power -> Battery Use and take a screenshot

4) Plug into USB on machine on which you have ADB (careful not to unplug) and run: adb shell su -c synergybatteryreport *OR* without plugging into USB and using ADB - In terminal emulator run: su synergybatteryreport

5) Pull the battery report using root explorer or ADB tools (the file lives in /data/local/tmp/synergybattery.log) and upload to pastebin. Paste pastebin link + screenshot from step 2 here

6) if you used ADB method before you unplug from USB make sure you have a valid report file with text in it, otherwise once you unplug you will need to start over from step 1

it turns out that the adds i was experiencing were due to GPSfix. that app caused it all. just fyi
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] eschelon:
You won't, necessarily. Read this post to understand why:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=30195631&postcount=3643

While I always recommend a wipe, you can dirty flash all day if you want. But if you start having problems others aren't seeing then almost certainly the first thing you will be asked to do is wipe and see if the issue occurs on the naked ROM
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Sniper_5:
Sorry if its been posted before. I'm doing my best to keep up to date here. I found that system seems to have an unusually high % rate

Synergy-1.7-I535
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] eschelon:
We are aware of the issue, but if you go to battery stats click on 'Android System' and then look at the installed packages you can see that there are a whole bunch of things in there that make up 'Android System', any of which could be causing the issue.

I posted a few pages back that we added a new script that can help us narrow this down. The method is posted here:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SilentNN:
For now you can put a file named ".nomedia" into the folder to hide it and it's sub folders irrc. Or use another gallery app.

Man this is driving me nuts. There has got to be a fix for this. I use the Parrott BT in my vehicle and it sometimes drops out so I have to go back into the settings each time. I take it that I am the only one with this issue. I would figure that others would be complaining.

When I read the commits I see that this was addressed this am--after the nightly.

I rember getting into a ton of trouble back with my Eris by not reading carefully. :p
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] eschelon:
Trev was digging around in some bluetooth files this morning and noticed some strings where Samsung has blacklisted certain BT devices (Parrott being among them). We'll remove the blacklisting, but that's no guarantee it will fix the issue

The latest build is r20. The commit I pushed an hour or two ago to fix the gallery auto rotate was r22, which means it will be in the build that comes out later tonight

I really can't live without the stock messenger and email so it's essential to me. Keep up the great work Eschelon, I'm still sporting 1.6 and although I somtimes get the high android OS usage....the battery life is still light years away from the stock rooted rom I was running (not to mention all the other goodies). It's going to be hard to convince me to flash to a newer synergy unless I see some major changes.....everything is just running great as a daily driver.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mkintop:
No, you only need to do this once and the bluetooth setting stays. Works pretty well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jedikcc:
You are on pace for a 19+ hour battery cycle. I don't consider that a battery problem. I call that a good day's battery. I rarely get more than 12-13 hrs.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jb_alphamale:
Nightlies. Yupiiiii!!!!

I love these guys as they become more and more my favorites.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mapatton82:
Someone else asked this and I didn't see a reply, what time are the nightlies built?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mkintop:
I tried this and it didn't work for me. Has anyone else gotten this to work?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] s197:
Yup this, IMO, is the best way since it hides folders from all apps not just stock gallery. Just an FYI, when I initially put a .nomedia file in the folder, it still showed up in the gallery. I had to go to menu => applications and wipe data/cache for gallery AND media storage before it would work. Also, I believe by wiping media storage data you will need to reset your ringtone and notifications.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] slvfox:
I think I remembered midnight mentioned.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] CIPuyleart:
What are the chances of figuring out how to keep phone call audio routed to BT when connected via BT while ALSO having the AUX/Headphone connected (i.e. while in a car that has BT phone, but not A2DP for streaming audio)?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mkintop:
I just got the Ibolt car dock and was having the same problem. Here is the fix: pair your device, go in to Bluetooth settings, click the settings button to the right of your device name, uncheck the Media Audio option leaving only the Call Audio option checked.

This worked for the car dock so I assume it would also work for a 3.5mm jack. You only need to do this once and the setting stays that way.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] t0adman:
Quick update on my battery issue in 1.6. I rebooted and installed 1.7 and one or both of those solved the issue. Now the screen is the number 1 consumer of power, followed by a very distance group of others, including the previously offending Android System. I'm back on pace for 20+ hour battery cycles. All good!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pschatz12:
Lol! That is the first time it has happened with the system os so I figured I'd post it and it might help. Not complaining about the battery or rom one bit! It is awesome!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] eschelon:
The buildbot kicks in every night at midnight eastern. It usually takes about 10-15 minutes to make the build, run ziggy's custom optimization scripts on it, and then upload it (assuming server speeds are normal). So each build should be there around 12:15ish assuming everything goes off normally.

Also, the build will typically only launch itself if there were commits that day. If not, the buildbot will abort the process for the day since there is nothing new. We also have the ability to kick off a build manually if we need to rush out an emergent fix.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SFniner415:
Should i have CWM 6.0.1.0 recovery before i flash this rom? I just downloaded EX-recovery for VZW GS3 off the market and not quite sure if i should select 6.0.1 and hit flash or reboot recovery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobby janow:
Make sure ez-recovery has SU permissions, then flash recovery 6.0.1.0, then reboot recovery and nandroid your current setup. Then wipe and flash the rom.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
You can use either CWM 6.0.1.0 or TWRP, i recommend CWM 6.0.1.0 only because it allows you to use kexec custom kernels, so just incase you decide you want to use custom kernels, you'll already be setup. But for now either one will work.

Hey all - I'm new to the nightly build world and have a couple questions (maybe already asked so flame where appropriate). Is there an app through which we can install nightly builds or do they all need to be downloaded? Are they always the full ROM or can just the updates be downloaded (making it a much smaller file)?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] codyvance:
Which means 9:15 Pacific! Woohoo!! Know what I am doing tonight :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Sccrluk9:
They need to be downloaded at this point. It will also be the whole ROM as the build machine takes all of the changesets from the previous day and builds/packages them.

To get just the updates they would need to manually make a zip file for us.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobby janow:
Make sure you have all the settings correctly again. Some get turned off by default I believe.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] XTRoRDiNAiRE:
Is there any possibility of adding a 4G toggle?

And is it because there are no custom kernels that my phone feels laggy or is it that I'm using widget locker and nova launcher?

Cause I always thought this phone can handle it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] d1ez3:
Do you have power save mode on
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
Download the entire rom. As far as installing goes, i recommend ALWAYS wiping at the very least cache and dalvik, but i wouldn't flash too many nightly builds without doing a clean install once in a while.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Hitman3984:
I'm having the same problem. it works with 1.6 and other roms, but not 1.7

So, the bootloader is unlocked...

Many of you are probably wondering what this means for the future of SynergyROM. First, we want to wait til the waves calm down a wee bit (probably several days at minimum) so that we can all figure out what this means and what the implications are. We need to see how stable the unlock methods are, if there are ways to get back to stock, what kinds of kernels can be run, what things may cause bricks, etc. We don't just want to jump into this blindly yet without fully understanding what we are all getting in to. I've never been a fan of flash first, read later.

That being said, assuming this all goes well, SynergyROM will begin implementing tweaks to the custom kernel at first (such as minor ramdisk enhancements) and then we will graduate to bundling a custom kernel with the rom itself. This will not happen overnight so we've all got a little bit of time to observe things over the next several days.

But rest assured, if this ends up being the real deal then we will ultimately take full advantage of it :)
