Just wondering if anyone else has had their Facebook message notifications stop working? I have them all enabled in the app, and they all seem to work except for when I get a message. I've cleared cache / data for it as well twice and still nothing. It's always worked in previous builds, but for some reason it's not working for me now. Nonetheless, that's the least of my worries! Everything else has been so smooth and rock solid!

EDIT: Never mind as this appears to be a problem with the app itself (BIG SURPRISE). I had recently installed the Facebook Messenger app to do voice messages, and notifications worked with that installed.

I clean flashed R257 from R169 with Superwipe w/ EXT4. ROM seems to be working flawlessy except I lost my GPS lock. This happened before and the only fix was going to Stock, getting a lock and then going back to Synergy. I'm not sure why I lost it on this flash since I don't see any updates to anything GPS related and not looking forward to that process again

Also I second the option to turn rotating lockscreen off is possible. I like the idea; however, when I unlock my phone it defaults to landscape and then I have to wait for it to go back to portrait. Its just been a constant fumble for me.

Thanks for all your hard work Esch and team!

Every since installing 257, reboots take approx. 4 minutes when restarting via power button, Quick Boot, etc.

I've seen this mentioned before, but don't know if an answer was posted yet. Is there something running during start ups which is extending the reboot time with 257?

Thank you! I finally got it working on my phone. I had been using VZW EZ-Recovery on the CWM Touch 5.8.4.9 recovery option and it was the cause of the Sprint ROM installation.

fwiw...This is the first time I have used a Synergy rom. So I cannot compare battery life with previous Synergy roms. But after trying r257 (coming from CleanROM 5.6), I have to say that r257 is considerably harder on my battery. I did try the ondemand governor, and it seemed to help a little. But still noticeably worse than I had with CleanROM. Something else I noticed was that r257 runs considerably warmer than CleanROM. I'm back using my old rom now until I learn if there are steps I can take to improve battery life on r257. Other than the battery issue, I did like this rom very much and I think the programmer(s) have done an excellent job!

So are themes breaking this build or working fine? Haven't been in the tw loop for a while. Wasabi's look pretty sweet, but see no mention of new synergy or multi-window support. I did see the simple blue and black with multi-window addon, is the main them ok to flash? I'm mainly asking due to the reports I read of any framework mods causing problems on this build.

Esch, any chance of you packing up the original awesome synergy Boot Animation in aroma as an option?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] eschelon:
Alright, you guys hate the lockscreen rotation. I get it. We'll have to figure something out cuz that was a full framework mod and there is no on off toggle. Either it works everywhere, or it doesn't work anywhere. I know some initial responses are "just add an option in AROMA"... but it's not that simple as it's fully integrated into the framework.

That's the life of a dev: People ask for a feature and so you work to add it in, then once you've figured it out people start asking for it to be removed :p But your complaints don't fall on deaf ears around here so we'll figure something out.

We've spent the last 36 hours getting data to properly work on all international variants, overhauling the updater to be significantly more clear, fixing the /data wipe issue (we hope), and attempting to address why people intermittently lose data for a few minutes then have it magically restore itself, as well as some more kernel enhancements to draw less power.

I know there's still some issues with the last digit of IMEI getting cut off (don't worry, all 15 digits are there, it just only displays 14 to the OS whan apps or settings asks for it), location services work (if you have all 3 services turned on and go into settings -> accounts -> google, then turn on location services) but we're still trying to see why the Verizon location services are being so fickle, and we're looking into contact syncing now.

We may end up releasing a build really soon to get the bug fixes we're got completed out there for you guys, then we'll keep working on the rest of the stuff as we go along.

I have flashed each one and upon reboot data does not work with any of them accept for the k3. Don't know if you are already aware of this or if I'm the only one but hopefully it might be useful info. Other than that everything running sweet and smooth. Thanks

The lock screen rotation is a silly complaint ech. Bugs are more important than whether you have to wait a couple of seconds for the screen to reorient

But then that's why everyone loves synergy. You guys listen and respond not matter what. :cool:

Debating on flashing synergy I'm on Cleanrom 5.6 and want to try Synergy but seems there's still a lot of issues, losing data IMEI and various features not working, just want some opinions is it still worth flashing love Cleanrom but synergy seems impressive just not sure its worth flashing with so many issues

Re: ☆ ★ | ROM | SynergyROM VZW S3 | JB 4.1.1 | Multiwindow | PDroid | 1-18-13 r257 |★

A true clean flash of this ROM you will not have any issues.

Battery life could still use a little improvement and their are some things some people don't care for but the true "bugs" are small.

Aroma installer is touchy and boot time is abnormally long. ROM runs like butta

Camera on the new rom

I had ver. r169 and put r257 on all went well I picked both camera/ gallery options and when phone booted I noticed no cameras at all. One gallery app was there so I clicked the camera in it and gallery Fced. What did I mess up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] eschelon:
That's good feedback, actually. Can anyone else confirm this?

That screen actually asked which apps you want to REMOVE. We finished re-writing the aroma script last night to make that more clear so you guys shouldn't have that problem on the next build and going forward

Also forgot to mention that we fixed up the excessive boot times you guys are seeing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] natemiller82:
Re: ☆ ★ | ROM | SynergyROM VZW S3 | JB 4.1.1 | Multiwindow | PDroid | 1-18-13 r257 |★

There are a few issues with aroma acting a little funny. The first flash I wired in recovery and did the "super wipe", abs selected both AOSP and stock tw messaging recovery. I've tried several other ways of checking the boxes - stock tw messaging will not install from the aroma installer. Possibly a dl (didn't run an md5 check) issue, as others have been able to install, but I doubt that, as there are no other problems.

I suspect my messaging issue may be related to my initial wiping, but I'm not gonna put in more time to investigate that; rom's great otherwise.

Once in a while gapps won't install even though they are all selected.

That being said there are always going to be minor issues, even in a stable release.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] soopervoo:
I did a full clean wipe (internal SD as well) but still experienced more bugs (loss of data, long boot time, laggy apps) on r257 than r169.

im probably part of a small population but I like the rotation.

Re: ☆ ★ | ROM | SynergyROM VZW S3 | JB 4.1.1 | Multiwindow | PDroid | 1-18-13 r257 |★

what do you mean by "not install"? does it say app not installed when you touch the icon? if that's the case you just need to move the TW messaging icon down from your app drawer. when you move from aosp to tw messenger the stock icon it puts on your homescreen doesnt work - pulling down the icon from you drawer will fix

So no work on location services then? Seems like opening up the ROM to all carriers opened a can of worms. I don't envy you developers! I hope this doesn't put the Verizon bugs on the back burner since remaining ones are relatively minor.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] eueyj:
I actually went the other way, tried CleanROM but it lacked one of the key features for me. Allshare Cast only works on Synergy or stock. As for bugs in Synergy, if you follow the instructions and do a clean install there is nothing major. I'm running the latest synergy and my only real frustration is the slow bootup time but Esch has already stated this has been fixed for the next release.

If you do find any bugs at least you'll know the team will get those fixed very quickly. All developers on Synergy are very responsive.

Re: ☆ ★ | ROM | SynergyROM VZW S3 | JB 4.1.1 | Multiwindow | PDroid | 1-18-13 r257 |★

By "not installed," I mean exactly that. I mean that stock touchwiz messaging is not installed on the device; even if it is the only messaging option selected in aroma, even after everything is wiped. It is non existent in the app drawer as well as in all applications in settings. AOSP messaging will install, however.

Is there a way I can just take the secmms.apk out of the zip and make a flashable zip? I tried using root explorer, setting permissions to rw-r-r after placing it in the system/app folder, but that was a no-go. Not sure why I'm having aroma issues but I'm not going to deal with rewiping again for a bit, did it around ten times yesterday, but the stock messaging app will not install on my device when flashing. If someone could point me in the direction of what I would need to flash an apk, that seems like it would be a relatively simple solution to my problem.

Re: ☆ ★ | ROM | SynergyROM VZW S3 | JB 4.1.1 | Multiwindow | PDroid | 1-18-13 r257 |★

Yeah, I imagine that would probably work. I've thought about that. I just have been lazy and don't want to re download it (the zip was on my internal sd for some reason, so it went bye bye when I did the super wipe). I actually suspect wiping everything is somehow related to it but installing, as everything else seems to be ruled out.

I'm just looking for a way to sort of force it to install, as the apk (secmms.apk) is in the system/app folder, with proper permissions, but is missing from the apps installed on the device. I've installed system apps like this before, but for some reason this didn't work.

If I really really start to dislike AOSP messaging I'll re download r165 and dirty over it.

Re: ☆ ★ | ROM | SynergyROM VZW S3 | JB 4.1.1 | Multiwindow | PDroid | 1-18-13 r257 |★

Yeah, I like the super wipe function as it gave me a good excuse for a cleaned up sd. I suspect it may have gotten rid of something needed for tw messaging that didn't get installed by the installer afterwards, but it doesn't seem others are having this problem, so I really don't have a clue.

Wow, thanks! Unfortunately it fails in TWRP giving an error of "status 0." I'm not comfortable with what exactly goes where in flashable zips, but should the apk be in system/apps instead of just /apps in the zip?

Esch stated that the location services issue was being looked into.

Other than that we are just going to have to wait on the devs.
