hmmmmmm...... a few ideas. The first thing that stands out is that there is a picture of the black lock ring in this thread, but they managed to capture that while the lock ring was centered - I believe they all "start out" at the bottom, because then you need to slide it up to unlock, or pull one of the custom icons into it to open the apps.

The updater should take care of all of that for you, if I remember correctly (and it's only been a few days lol). Meaning, you shouldn't have to do any of it manually. However, you could always boot into recovery and flash that zip manually if you want to make sure you have the right black ring.
[EVO 4G Android Development] gnmitchell:
Awesome! So I guess wirefly didn't charge you to switch numbers.
[EVO 4G Android Development] thfc1799:
As long as you see the black ring update in the synergy updater it's pretty straight forward...

- click it

- select black lock ring 1

- download

- allow it to update automatically

- grant superuser access

done.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mutant13:
well it worked, 2 calls, they both told me "NO WAY, you just bought your evo in November"... I used the old "I'm switching to Verizon" gag.... she said, ummm let me call you back???? I said "ok"....2 hour later I get a mystery 888 # calling me??? I answer its sprint.... full upgrade, $150 credit, can renew my contract anytime, effective now !!!

but with the move, I still can't yet justify $199, I need to get a job in Raleigh first !!!

but I can now get the 3D with ease soooo thanks Fred you are awesome

BTW 15 years of telemarketing experience helps !!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] tuscolavol:
I want to see that picture.

Heard you had some more bad weather. Got the boat built yet? Stay dry and stay safe.
[EVO 4G Android Development] dasingleton:
Nice work..even if it's Da U!!! :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] rrascal:
Downloaded it - It is in my download folder.

I hit the apply update button - it booted me to recovery.

From there I flashed the zip file - rebooted into synergy with no results. Tried it two times. I really don't recall if it asked me for su permissions or not.

I am going to try it again right now. I am sure I am screwing up.

Thanks for helping.
[EVO 4G Android Development] thfc1799:
if that still doesn't work for some reason just flash it in recovery...

The file update-fusion-black-lock-ring-supersonic-synergy is in your downloads folder... Just flash it like a rom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] gnmitchell:
Before flashing it, make sure to wipe data,cache and dalvik. Then flash synergy and then you flash the lockring.

Hope this helps
[EVO 4G Android Development] thfc1799:
He shouldn't need to reflash synergy... In all reality he shouldn't need to wipe anything (although i suppose wiping cache and dalvik never hurt anything)... However if it's still not working then that's probably the way to go.
[EVO 4G Android Development] gnmitchell:
I believe Myn mentioned that you needed to wipe, flash synergy, then lock-ring. I did it this way and it has worked worked for me.;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] marcusva79:
@Mutant

What up buddy, I am actually in the same boat as you were in. Me and my wife are in a family plan I updated my number with an EVO in November of 2011, and my wife yet still has to upgrade, sprint saying that she cant get an upgrade till Oct. I emailed customer service and they responded back saying that my wife can cancel her line for 35 instead of 170 and sending me into my own contract for 69.99. She can cancel hers for 35 and I can cancel mine for 170(org cancellation fee) to get us back on a family plan. I think this is ridiculous to have us do this. Do you think this is a great idea or should I ask for more? @Fred maybe you might have more info what to do in this situtation.

Thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] marcusva79:
gnmitchell you just have to wipe everything for the 3.0 rosie update, only. the black ring you can install anytime.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rrascal:
OK - thanks for the help.

Third time flashing like a rom and no go. 2 times I wiped cache/dalvik before flash.

Third time no cache/dalvik wipe before flash. No go

Maybe it does need to be flashed right after synergy. Damn I would hate to loose all I set up. Guess that is what nandroid is for.

Maybe the synergy lock screen is the black circle mod, but I thought way back in the posts it is supposed to be in the middle of the screen. I could be wrong - Not the first time in my life.

Thought - Isn't it a credit to the developers and a great rom that this discussion is about a piddly issue like a modded lock screen - Great job myn and crew synergy is rocking.
[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
It's not in the middle of the screen. The lock rings start at the bottom and you slide them up into the middle. I thin that is where the picture came from - when they had it slid to the middle. I could be wrong, but I've not seen any of the lock rings start out anywhere other than the bottom. I have the black lock ring (I think LOL;)) and it starts at the bottom.
[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
Now I am confused. If we wipe everything and then apply the Rosie update....where is the rom LOL???
[EVO 4G Android Development] thfc1799:
Strange... Worked for me no problem.. guess It's one of those things...
[EVO 4G Android Development] k2buckley:
Agreed. Once we get root on this thing its all over. Its amazing out of the box. I felt well prepared for it after using synergy for a bit.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rrascal:
Slugbug you done it again - I am sure you are right.

Either way it is no big deal - I dig what is there anyway.

Sorry for being dumb but thanks for all the help - People on this thread sure are the best.

On to bigger and more bad$%^ things. Off to try that panoramic camera.
[EVO 4G Android Development] jbermi:
LOL. asian moms are tough. (i'm half vietnamese) my biological boy is a toehead blond with slanty blue eyes. ROFL.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mutant13:
I was straight with them and what i wanted, I told them I want the evo3D for $199, I told them I have been a customer for 8 years, and would like to upgrade, I was very nice, asked the lady how her day was???blah blah blah...it did not work the first time, but it did the second, its a grind, but if it take 5 calls so be it... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tA7-3FKF-lE
[EVO 4G Android Development] marcusva79:
@Slugbug.

Hahah forgot to say Wipe everything, Flash rom, then rosie 3.0 update :P I hate typing when there is people in from of me haha.
[EVO 4G Android Development] marcusva79:
Mutant great link bud. I just emailed them again and told them if they can have us both cancel and start our plan out evenly since we can no longer upgrade our phones once year. Our account is just all out of wack.
[EVO 4G Android Development] gnmitchell:
Speaking of the panoramic camera, has anyone gotten it to work?
[EVO 4G Android Development] gnmitchell:
Crap you are right. We were talking about the lock screen and I was thinking about Rosie 3.0! :o

trying to do to many things at work while trying to keep up on this thread.
[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
Man I am having one helluva time getting my phone to wipe and boot back up ok. Sometimes it boots, then it boot looped, then it booted but when I went to add widgets....that page was all sorts of messed up with some funky names, nothing in htc, etc. I know this is all user error. I think I am going to have to re-do all my settings and home screens. Again. blah! Oh well, a do-over once a week never really hurt anyone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] marcusva79:
time flies at work when I am on xda. Its fun.
[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
You guys multi-tasking combined with my never ending migraine......we're useless :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] marcusva79:
I know Slug...I restart from scratch all the time. Makes time fly by all the time, ecspecially at work. But now what I have been doing is making nandroids right after the rom loads up for the first time. So much easier.
[EVO 4G Android Development] mutant13:
glad you liked the link...LOL... my wife and I are just finishing up the latest season of Dexter... and when I was writing you I thought about that guy saying "TAKE IT" ...LOL

if I were you I would call the # Fred gave its your best chance !
[EVO 4G Android Development] Biofall:
Woe is me, right?

New shooter has a dead pixel in the menu key, light leakage in lower left corner, and a scuffed side out of the box. Wirefly's gunna have to send me a new one, bastards
[EVO 4G Android Development] marcusva79:
I know. When I see Fred on again I will ask them. I know in my situtation it can be done right?
[EVO 4G Android Development] marcusva79:
WTF already.....Man that really does suck dude.
[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
BRILLIANT!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] gnmitchell:
Tami you still have the migraine from yesterday? I really hope you get some relief soon!
[EVO 4G Android Development] jbermi:
that sucks. my screen is flawless. only thing that kinda annoys me is that aluminum ring around the camera is too soft and gets scratched easily...but that was before i got a case on it. i never carry a phone without a case. just habit...
[EVO 4G Android Development] gnmitchell:
Wow that sucks!!! Can't believe it was scuffed out of the box.

Hopefully they can replace it right away for you.
[EVO 4G Android Development] rrascal:
Darn I just accidentally hit that mirror app - scared the crap out of myself.

Mommas (the wife) gonna love that thing.
[EVO 4G Android Development] marcusva79:
Right now I am running decks rom..I like it but I am going back to synergy right now. Just want to know if anyone gets this? Going from screen to screen it lags on my phone and mms sends pictures really pixelated. So..going use Gosms or Handcent.
[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
I have had a migraine nearly every day since May 15th. That was a Sunday. I have gone a total of 5 days without since then (2 x2days in a row, and 1 day). Some mornings I wake up with it - pounding concrete head. Other days it may not hit later. We have tried everything to stop it. I am with a good Neurologist. I've had 4 different IV sessions of abortive meds. I took 6 days of a steroid abortive meds. I've had a new MRI done and that shows up fine, except for an enlarged vein which is indicative of.....I have a migraine :( I have loving friends and family here that are helping me out because some basic things are very hard to do. For me, my migraines are very "ocular". My eyes have been almost fully dilated for the entire 6 weeks, they are dilated even when I feel ok. So any kind of light, especially fluorescent light, sends me in a downward spiral. I wear sunglasses at work when I can work. I where sunglasses at night because all the lights are horrid to me - I try not to drive at night right now. I can't "fake" my migraines - when they happen, my eyes are f*ed, my speech is slurred, I can't finish sentences, my fingers go numb, and oh yea...my head kind hurts (a LOT!).

It will end eventually because, well.....it has to, right? :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] joeyldev:
I asked wirefly for free activation and they got a sprint rep on the line. Sprint flat out told me not to use wirefly activation and to just go online and activate it myself through sprint.com. They said there would be no activation fee that way.

Bio, let me know what happens. I ordered my wirefly phone yesterday.
[EVO 4G Android Development] wase4711:
wonder how long it will take to get root...
[EVO 4G Android Development] aburgthing:
Synergy 6/23 with Rosie 3.0 observations flashed this last night and noticed these anomalies:

1. The news widget does not load any news. It's there, just does not connect to server. Says "loading" in the window. Left overnight (for me over afternoon) still said the same when I got up.

2. Only part of the "Pure Black" skin is evident when applied i.e. the rounded normal Sense rosie is on the bottom; not the squared one.

3. The carousel effect loads when unlocking, however I am unable to see this effect once the screen is loaded. Is there a trick to get the carousel to work/spin? Edit: I can get it work but it is very inconsistent.

4. Definitely requires a full wipe. We were warned but I tried to be lazy and restore SDext, data, and Android secure and it was a mess.

5. Still cannot update profile or PRL. I still get the 1012 error but this has plagued me for a while across multiple ROMS.

6. A few MyBackup Pro apps though there and restored force close when attempting to use. Most notably TiBack up does not get root access when restored, SlingPlayer, others. Have to uninstall and re-install. This has been a cross nightly problem so no surprises.

Still a beautiful ROM and runs smoothly with great battery life, sleeps like a baby. Even on 6/22 the performance was excellent when pushing the phone e.g. camera, video recording, browsing, weather etc. so no complaints there.
[EVO 4G Android Development] marcusva79:
Aburg..I used to get those annoying 1012 errors myself. What I did was either reboot the phone and then try again. (worked) Or you could be in a bad 3g area. That cause it to do that to.

Edit: Just flashed the rom again 6/23 got the 1012 error...rebooted Tried to update again and error is gone. Was able to update PRL and profile. Give that a try.

Hulu Plus on certain android phones:

http://www.bgr.com/2011/06/24/hulu-...android-phones-as-company-is-put-up-for-sale/

Do you think it would be possible to pull and modify that apk to work on our evo's?
[EVO 4G Android Development] aburgthing:
Yeah, I'm leaning towards bad 3G area. Rebooted full with battery pull to check some other stuff and no joy updating. Thanks for your reply though, I appreciate it.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lowetax:
very true !

although i like the feel of the evo better ...

the 3d doesn't feel manly !

maybe it's because i still have the purple bodyglove on it

think i'll run to sprint and best buy
[EVO 4G Android Development] ageesm:
So, interesting story. I got done with work a bit early today, headed over to BestBuy to check out the tablets I'm looking at.

The entire time I'm looking the guy is trying to tell me to wait til July 1st and get HP's TouchPad (little did he know I had no intention of making a purchase today anyway and not from BB). He was explaining how the HP rep that came in had 60 apps running at once, now I had to say something. How the guy found 60 apps on WebOS in the first place is beyond me :p, but anyway, clearly not spending 600$ on a platform that isn't support well enough. In addition the Tegra 2 processor are superior to the Snapgdragons from what I've seen. I do think their multitasking is somewhat brilliant, but past that there is nothing to pull me in...And it just isn't Honeycomb.

Unfortunately they didn't have the Transformer on display or anywhere in stock I could try one and that was the main one I was interested in. I must say I was pleasantly surprised by the Acer Iconia, guess my expectations were low. I would probably buy the Galaxy Tab 10.1 in a second if it had an sdcard slot, gorgeous device...Anxious (but carefully researching) to make a decision so I can have a shiny new device to play with, despite the fact it isn't the EVO 3D with all you lovely individuals :).
[EVO 4G Android Development] agreeler:
My friend had something like that if I remember right. I think he was eating too much protein or something. I don't quite remember. Hope that helps :/
[EVO 4G Android Development] wase4711:
only problem on 6-23 so far is the Stocks Widget wont load up..otherwise, everything is gr8 so far!
[EVO 4G Android Development] CrippleB:
Just dropped 56 dollars on otter defender.:eek: Well worth to keep my second baby evo safe.

People look at me funny when I have two evo's attached to my belt.
[EVO 4G Android Development] lowetax:
last night in the dark

i was using my evo's flashlight

to see some things on my 3d ! (2d / 3d switch)

this flashlight works on the evo 3d

always comes in handy at some point

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/12917383/Flashlight.apk
[EVO 4G Android Development] dan0412:
For all the features the ASUS transformer has, it is the best deal thus far IMO. I just ordered one from Amazon for $448 shipped.
[EVO 4G Android Development] luieavila:
I'm running nightly 6/23 and I have a question about a2sd. I have my card partitioned and have noticed that some apps get installed to the internal memory. I'm not sure if this is normal, not familiar at all with how a2sd really works. Thanks in advanced for the sharing of knowledge.
[EVO 4G Android Development] CrippleB:
Didn't even notice the flashlight was gone. thats odd.

Edit: Nice find works Great
[EVO 4G Android Development] lowetax:
the Mirror must be more important !
[EVO 4G Android Development] ageesm:
Yea I know, I've been leaning that way all along, has the sdcard slot and at least 100$ cheaper...I just really want to use one before ordering it, I'm not really interested in the dock, at least not now (I have an ASUS laptop).

Damn Samsung making beautiful devices and always shooting themselves in the foot somehow, at least with me. I mean why not put an sdcard slot in it, to make it the 'thinnest tablet ever' to compete with the iPad? Who cares, Honeycomb is the main pull IMO. Add a few mm, sheesh. I also was thinking maybe it was to push sales of the 32GB over the 16GB, cuz lets be honest, in reality 16GB does NOT cost 100$, 20-40$ for a decent 16gb card...:confused:
[EVO 4G Android Development] DustieBottums:
posted earlier today but got buried pretty quickly...lol Is there a way to get a brightness adjuster in the quick settings notification bar? If not i would like to request it for future releases if enough people would also like it. I work outside and am frequently wanting to adjust for the sun and it just seems to me that the auto dim is insufficient. This is the only thing that keeps me feeling like synergy is complete. Great job myn... my phone has been my new addiction.
[EVO 4G Android Development] incubus26jc:
I made one for the Incredible but it doesnt have 4G toggle. If you dont mind that, it will work.

Flash the attached file
[EVO 4G Android Development] CrippleB:
Yeah I paid 40 at best buy for a 16gb class 10. You know how it is, gotta make a buck (or several) and pass that on to consumer.
[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
This is not not directly answering your request (only the developers can do that :)) but I wanted to let you know about two things I do since I am frequently adjusting the display brightness (as well as a few other things). First - I put a short cut on my home screen for Display Settings (I think you could add that to one of the four icons on the lock screen too). Second - I use an app called Quick Profiles. It allows you to set up various scenarios and easily change to that profile. For example - I have a work profile where all sound is off, display is set to very dim, screen is set to never time out (I stream music at work). I have another profile for Car where all notifications are set to the loudest, screen never turn off, brightness bright, etc.

There is also a widget that I have on one of my screens that has Brightness, Timeout, Wifi, Auto Sync, and Bluetooth. I believe you can put a widget for just Brightness toggling, too.
[EVO 4G Android Development] DustieBottums:
Thank you very much incubus. You guys are definitely good at what you do... I dont use the 4G that often anyway cuz most of the time im on wifi at the house.
[EVO 4G Android Development] KB112:
Whats with all the 3 Amigos love on XDA. Lol Another guy had a pic of El Guapo as his avatar, we got another with the 3 of them on his av. I swear I saw Ned Neiderlander some where too! Ha ha, I love it.

FYI - I had a carnitas super burrito today at lunch...from 3 Amigos restaurant!
[EVO 4G Android Development] DustieBottums:
Thank you for the info. I probably will check out the Quick profiles. As for putting stuff on the home screen, I dont like a lot of clutter there and prefer the least amount of widgets possible. I use folder organizer to minimize time looking for all my apps with only 4 icons on home screen.
[EVO 4G Android Development] DustieBottums:
Its one of my favorite movies and i have been using the same handle on the psn and xbox live since as long as i can remember. I seen those same guys with the avatars so i figured i would follow suit :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] luieavila:
This looks great! Awesome job. Can't wait to see some full themes coming from you guys when this is in it's official release.
[EVO 4G Android Development] slugbug2010:
I hear ya! One of the biggest reasons I love simi clock is that I can assign 5 apps to about 4 different "touches" on the clock/battery, basically giving only one app that "houses" all of my most accessed apps. So when I tap on the left most part of semi clock - Quick Profiles, Gmail and Pandora show up.

I highly recommend it, especially if you like a rear minimal look. I swear that dang clock can hold nearly everything. That, plus the right rosie and the 4 icons on the lock screen....not much more is needed :)
[EVO 4G Android Development] Dredz:
What a Coincedence

So today Me and my GF jumped in the gas guzzler and drove to Sprint. Upon entering we were rushed by the greeter who really seemed set on selling me a EVO 3D, regardless why I was there. The issue is: My GF broke the screen on her TP2 and they refused to replace it and flagged the phone DBR. They said upgrade or ins claim. On top of that my mom has a Sammy Moment, which has been possesed like a 14yo girl:p, and she is ready to use it for skeet. Both phones purchased last year before the tier change and I was Premiere. So I tried the retention number and the rep placed me on hold for 26 seconds and came back with both lines available for upgrade. I'm even getting a Airave, because I have no signal at my home, free of charge.

Then I asked the guy when my ten year anniversary would be, and he said I became a Sprint customer on June 25, 2001! How's that for coincedence!

The point of it all: If not for Mynions, I would not have the number or the information to handle this.

3 hours later, text received on the two lines for full upgrade. Thank you, to everyone involved in making this thread a community.
[EVO 4G Android Development] CrippleB:
I actually put the three up cause I saw el guapo.

Netflix looks better than ever on the 3d screen.
[EVO 4G Android Development] marcusva79:
Yo!!!

Dredz congrats man. I am trying to get my family plan restarted. I got an upgrade back in November(when I got my EVO) and now my wife needs a new phone (she has my old Hero) They want her to cancel her line and have me start my own line at 69.99 and then have her pay the same rate as me, thus getting rid of our family plan. I have email them about this but have not gotten a response. I am hoping they will either restart our account or let us both cancel and restart with a family and get an EVO 3d. Fingers crossed!!!
[EVO 4G Android Development] CrippleB:
@El Guapo

I hope it all goes well for you, the 3d is an awesome piece of hardware. We are in for such a treat when it's rooted.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Dredz:
That sounds fishy to me. When is your wife due for a upgrade and were you premiere before the tier change? I don't know why Sprint would want you to cancel your plan for seperate ones, wouldn't that drive you to a carrier that would offer a family plan(maybe even cheaper then 2 seperate plans)? Even if you just get your wife's line upgraded, swap phones with her.

:D But I would call retention a try again.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Product F(RED):
You guys aren't going to believe this. I still have an upgrade on my line.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Solicitous:
Brightness profiles is an app that toggles brightness. You can even put different levels of brightness for access. For example, I have 25, 35, and 45 for brightness. I absolutely love it and I recommend it to anyone who needs a brightness app
