I know about the volume rocker issue. Working on that today. As far as the screen lag on home key. I will have a fix for that soon.

Also please look at the OP and the above quote from the op for bug reporting.

Do you have calendar sync on for your google account or facebook account or whichever account your birthdays are stored in?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] AlpineMan:
This is definitely my ROM of choice. Thank you!!!

One thing that I'm missing however is the Sprint Zone app. I suppose I can get that from other ROM's, but this ROM is a keeper.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] JBizzleFoSho:
I have all my birthday info in each contact and it is selected to show it within the calendar app.

Tried clearing calendar cache and everything and letting it re-sync

Edit: Also, I think this is a problem with even stock MA7, but if I try to enable the function to take pictures using voice commands in the camera app, it FC's. Can anybody else confirm?

Edit 2: Fixed my calendar issue by deleting my Google accounts and re adding them. Still can't figure out the camera though

I just noticed I now have some app on my phone called google settings. I think it has to do with google plus which I deleted. However I cant find the .apk for google settings in root explorer. Does anybody know what the app is called so I can delete it?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] kingdazy:
You can read all about the new icon right here: Silently Installing Itself On A Device Near You: The Green 'Google Settings' Icon - It's Just Google Play Services 3.0

PS, you can delete the G+ app, but all of El Googs services (and your profile within it) are now intrinsically linked to it/with it. Global sign-in (much like FB has tried to do) is an aspect of its use, as well as remember searches across devices, sync'ed bookmarks, etc. Might as well own it instead of fight it. ;)

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] WFG:
Morphology will still work, but you will have to flash MacksUpdater which will replace the "Synergized" SystemUI (so I'd advise against it) and add lidroid.. also Ma7 calls on a few different images so themes may lack completeness.. but you should not see any error in using it.. What I'd advise doing is pulling the images/themes from the Morphology ZIP and manually placing them into SynergyROM apks..

Yeah. I dont know why It happens with ziggys, and it doesnt happen all the time. It stays pegged at 1.8 ghz from time to time sucking up battery. Dont get me wrong, I love his kernel. I hope plattypus is able to squash tha bug (may not be kernel related, but that is what I have noticed so far).

It was like that for me sometimes. But the the bug comes and the cpu stays pegged at 1.8 ghz. Keep an eye at your cpu speed from time to time with any app that shows your cpu speed in real time.

Has anyone tried installing XBMC on Synergy? On my phone, somehow when it tries to pull the external storage directory from the system, it gets nothing, then tries writing its settings files to //.xbmc/ (instead of /sdcard/Android/data/org.xbmc.xbmc/.xbmc/ or similar), then (obviously) fails, and then crashes. Apparently it tries to pull this information via a call to the Android Environment class -- I'm not sure why it would fail to return the expected information, as every other app I've tried seems to be able to find the directory it needs without complaint.

Anyone else? or is it just me?

I've been running the ROM for a while without any issues. Some phones just don't run custom kernels well. Try garwins ma7, or perseus's latest. My phone seems to like both pretty well. I like ziggys kernel, but my phone doesn't seem to like it too much. The ROM is great tho, battery life on the other kernels is about equal for me. I'm a heavy user and get at least 18 hours with about 40% left over. And that's with about 6 hours of screen on time @50% brightness.

I can't get wifi tether to work and it says it works right out of the box.

My convoluted installation steps:

- Flashed Rom. Cleared cache and dalvik.

- Realized I hadn't uninstalled wifi tether-TrevE and it kept my old settings. Uninstalled wifi-tether, reflashed rom, cleared cache, cleared dalvik.

- From searching this thread, found reference to needing to flash the MA7 radio (I must have missed this in the first post, I can't find reference to doing this anywhere in first post). Flashed radio, reflashed rom, cleared cache, cleared dalvik.

- Wifi Tether still not working.

- From other searching of this thread, found a post saying to check that Device Profile is set to "Generic ICS/JB (wlan0)" and that "Routing Fix" were checked. I changed these settings to match.

- Wifi Tether still not working.

1 - are there any additional troubleshooting steps I should perform to get it to work?

2 - can someone who has it working go through what each wifi Tether setting is in the correct state?

Additional Info: I'm testing if wifi tether works by trying to connect my PS3 to the GN2. I get it to connect and get an IP address but it doesn't see an internet connection.

bump... really would appreciate the help on this 1
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mk8882:
Sorry for the delay in trying this, and thanks for the quick reply. I've run through multiple new attempts and recorded results below:

I first tried the exact steps above. As I somewhat expected from my earlier observations - but wanted to make sure, the settings in Wifi Tether were unchanged (I had set the channel to 9 before flashing the rom to test this).

Next, I tried uninstalling Wifi Tether -TrevE and repeating the steps you laid out. I checked and after doing this the channel has changed to "01", so I assume it wrote new settings because I uninstalled it before flashing the rom.

At this stage, running Wifi Tether it shows device profile as "auto". I enabled wifi encryption. I attempted to connect using a windows 7 PC (to eliminate the PS3 as possible problem.) The AP did not shows up on the PC. I connect with the default passcode "abcdefghijklm". Everything looks ok and it shows "Internet Access" in windows. I try to go to a website in the browser --> nothing. Wait a minute or two and the logo in the taskbar changes and it shows "No Internet Access".. The second time I attempted this the GN2 also rebooted after a few minutes....

At mackentosh's suggestion, I changed the device profile to GS3. Now, the AP shows up on the PC, and it connects, but then it can't make it to the internet. After a few minutes the PC shows "No Internet Access".

--Any more ideas? and TY in advance.

Edit: I performed an additional test. I have LTE here, so I set the GN2 to CMDA-only. The same results were encountered when running wifi tether.

I also noticed now that if I ever start wifi tether, the Home and ScreenOn/Of buttons do not work on short-press functions -- but they still work in long-press. I mean pressing home doesn't bring me to home screen, but holding it down brings up recent apps and pressing on/off doesn't turn off screen but holding it down brings up the "Device Options". This odd behavior is only resolved by restarting the phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] mackentosh:
Re: ☆ ★ | ROM | SynergyROM SPR GN2 | Wi-Fi Tether | JB 4.1.2 [MA7]| 2-23-13 r47| ★ ☆

Make sure you enable access control after you set your profile to gs3, when your computer connects youll get a notification on your gn2 that a device wants access, allow it and you should be good to go
