Thx again for Prdog1 & BillBauman for the gr8 help.

:cool:

With Prdog1's help used, Odin, RF NV manager and fixed my IMEI. Then my roaming was fixed, yet was still having issues with my IMEI and then BillBauman came to the rescue for the ERI showing unknown. After fixing the ERI back to 5 and finally getting a few hours to sleep after being up 40+ was able to think alittle clearer and realized that my efs key was corrupted as well. Seeing I succ Odin back my IMEI and fixed the ERI still having issues.

So when making the jump from root ics to jb and saving the key in options in aroma was basically saving my corrupt key. This was happening after getting the eri back. I would check and everything looked good in ics, once flashed over to r373 I would check and the IMEI was wrong again.Was saving the corrupt settings so I ended up doing this before making the jump from ics to jb

I ran this from adb before jumping to jb from ics

adb reboot nvbackup

Then while loading the Rom

I did not backup my key. Then once I

flashed over to r373 I ran the command below from adb

adb reboot nvrestore

After this everything is running normal.

ERI=5

IMEI now matches the S3

Cool that worked and now tried to use the following

commands in adb get the following

Found that the phone sent has has rev. 0 as well yeppie, thx Prdog1 had an issue at first running the abd shell was not seeing my device and remembered you need usb debugging turned on. Lol!

So the one they sent has the very same hardware as the one I have. Thx everyone, now to decide to keep or send back since I have fixed mine almost hate sending back.

After much reading it seems that nothing is replaced when the phones are refurbished, such as camera lens, buttons, front screen etc. Pretty much put back to stock and sent back out. So since I spent all this time and my phone is fixed and purring once again. I will be keeping my original phone not seeing anything I will gain by changing out the phones now. Wow what a fun ride this has been. Brushed my skills on Odin, Rvskills, RF NV manager, QPST, adb lol! Hope everyone has a good week!

Thanks for this! Saved my from a ROM switch. I HATE rotating homescreen on my phone. That's what my tablet is for.

Thanks man, exactly what I was looking for - I've never hit that case testing I guess. Ill try on the old framework to make sure I am doing it right, but below is a screenshot with the new 4.1.2 multiwindow code I am running on this device - I seem to be able to open a new message window OK and can browse through youtube videos without getting that half diagonal bar. Hopefully thats all you did to get it so I can mark this one fixed ;)

Is there anyway to use the s-pen on our s3? I see in sqlite we have the options to turn on the s-pen but I tried a friends and it didn't work. I may be stupid but I thought I would ask because the pen is a nice option
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TrevE:
We ported 90% of the spen stuff as it was tied into most of the multiwindow. Need a few more files to turn it on but I do not think it would work. As far as I know the note2 has an extra digitizer in it for spen, I doubt theyd leave that kinda hardware just deactivated in S3 as its prolly $$. Have not tried to confirm, but my guess is it wont work.

Home screen rotation flash any other stock launcher configuration and it will break the rotation. I run 4x6. There are many different configurations out there. Check theme and mod section on all carriers including International.

App rotation turn off with toggle in dropdown or in main phone settings. Don't know a way to kill full rotation. Haven't had a reason for it. Shouldn't turn upside down unless your gyro is bad. Should maintain your orientation. :cool:

The only way to be sure is to try running all sorts of apps(try most if not all of them in ur phone) together and see if it appears. It seems sporadic. If you run a bunch of different apps together and don't see it then I think it's safe to mark it as fixed :)

Pull the Seclauncher2.apk from any rom and replace in system. It will break the Home Screen rotation but no other ill effects. I use 4x6 and rotation been broke since they added it. Rotation is kinda worthless since there is no way to compensate for the loss of rows. Don't get whole screen. :cool:

The new code for multi window looks good. Yeah I didn't do anything fancy to get the bug to appear, just what I posted before.

Also, I think I was able to recreate the scaling bug in multi window. I have the xda app open with another app in the following screen shot. The xda app won't scale (when I move the bar the space where the app should expand is just navy color).

I had the xda app open already and had selected the favorites tab before enabling multi window and then added a second app to the screen.

Other than that the Rom is working great for me. Just that minor multi window stuff and screen freezing problem (mentioned by others earlier) causing reboots on my phone. But best battery life and stability on jb so far

Every phone is different so you never know. What works great for 99 people might not work well on your phone. And as an FYI every ROM will have a number of issues bring reported (battery drain being a common one). There are many variables (phone, kernel, apps, etc...) and most have nothing to do with the ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jlyle:
You came to the right place. Of course as with any Rom/phone depends on how you use it etc. As for in General yes Synergy is TOPS in my book. She sleeps like a baby and runs like a rabbit when you need it too :D:good::cool:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Quickpaw:
I did a superwipe to r373 when it was released with Ziggy's kernal. Everything was running perfectly (best JB release so far!), but I noticed that when charging, it was losing more than what it was taking in when in use (when plugged into my car charger). When plugged into the wall at home, it would take over 6hrs to get a full charge.

I switched to LeanKernal 2.0, and that seems to have fixed the charging issue. Anyone else have/had this issue? Think a dirty flash with Ziggy would fix it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
The dalvik wipe and reboot when you flashed the other kernel is what fixed it. You had an app locked up. :cool:

I have experienced lag when accessing the dialer somewhat. I am running stock kernel.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] fixxxer0:
dialer lags for me too!

I had very bad lag with the dialer at first. it would lag upon opening sometimes for 10 seconds, and then stutter when scrolling through recent calls. contacts and favorites had no lag issues.

on the recent calls menu the phone would stop every so often, and then all the phone numbers below the contacts would refresh from 123-456-7890 format to (123) 467-7890. every few lines you tried to scroll it would keep lagging and refreshing the number format.

i cleared phone data and then dalvik/cache in recovery (even though this was a clean superwipe install) and now its only kinda laggy. definitely noticeably less smooth when compared to everything else on the phone.

...something doesn't seem to be right.

ETA: this was intially on ziggy kernel, but the problem is still occuring (slight lag) on leankernel 2.0

gps network location

Is anyone else having an issue with google maps not using the network location first before getting a precise fix?

i only have this problem on synergy jb roms (all versions i've tried)... cm10.1 doesn't do it. basically, the Gmaps will just show "no location available" until it gets a precise GPS fix, which could take minutes.

how it SHOULD and HAS always worked for me is you get a coarse location from cell towers (within 200m-1000m). then it gradually hones in once you get a gps sat fix.

the only way i can get a quick, up to date coarse location is if i have had a very recent GPS lock (whether in maps or GPStest program), or have WiFi turned on for using wifi location.

this is really a killer problem for me because when i'm driving I cant be searching around for where i am on the map, or waiting 3 minutes for a lock. all my google settings are allowing locations, and all gps options turned on. any ideas how to fix this?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] corbn89:
It's been like that for basically every Synergy ROM for this phone ever. Stock ROM also won't put me on the map until I get a precise fix. Maybe its a CM thing? Sometimes I get that honing in action you're talking about, but only when I try to get a lock it a spotty location (im usually in a place where i get good signal or none at all).

That being said, I don't think you should be relying on GPS that's accurate from 200m-1000m to begin with. Probably should wait until you get a complete lock before driving with it.

Network location (or something similar to that)

That was a fix in previous versions. Not sure if it will help. I didn't install pdroid this time so I can't be certain.

Apparently we arent made equal, but I flashed this a few times and did the superwipe with ext4 and did a slight overclock and selected every app and every performance boost and my phone has run like a dream. Actually my sons phone is running perfectly well as well. The only thing I didnt select is either one of the txt restores.

You have nothing to lose for sure and you can always go back and reflash and remove things you dont want. Obviously dont run the rom on your internal storage and make sure you are on the latest twrm recovery. It has worked for me on two phones.
