How would you know, i don't remember sharing any rom yet.
Work good except:
- Bluetooth
- Sensors
- Camera
Other stuff is running well!
I look forward to this but mostly because of the PAC ROM, which is my planned future for the Ultra.
I guess that CM10.2 isn't far away when 10.1 is up and running. It feels like this month is when the big things happen for our Ultras.
Anyway, that is a good news

It used to be custom roms added functionality and speed or filled in when manufacturers lagged in updating Android. Now they do virtually nothing. Neither functionality or speed is an issue any longer and updating Android doesn't seem necessary. I tried just about all the custom roms including CyanogenMod when I had Note 2 and if anything it limited functionality, did nothing for speed and was one small step ahead of the manufacturer in updating Android. I find various launchers such as Nova, Apex, Smart and Action add the functionality we use to only get with custom roms. With the latest processors speed is absolutely not an issue. Updates to Android have been minimal since Ice Cream was released. What's the point? What do we gain with a Cyanogen or custom rom?

I would have to agree. I find that as long as my phone is rooted and I remove unnecessary apps it performs just as good or better than custom ROMS. Throw in a cool Launcher and I am happy. The irony is that I still end up installing custom ROMS. Go figure.

For a start if gives people options to explore something new. A lot of people prefer vanilla Android too (Especially when given the option of Touchwiz vs CM/PA/ETC). Once you're on a custom ROM you can then mess & play with other stuff too such as ribbons, boot animations, statusbar mods, transparency controls, colour profiles, different sound enhancements, hybrid/tablet layouts etc etc. Android was designed as an open platform & manufacturers of hardware decided to try & lock us out of all those options & force their own UIs on us.
I'm not trying to start an argument here but if you don't like having any control over your devices then I hear a company called Apple make a phone you might like...
Just give me tablet mode and i'll be contented... lol

well, everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but, I think several MILLION Adndroid users, who are members of XDA don't agree with you..
i used to want to load CWM, CM mod etc etc etc when I had devices like HTC G2... but nowadays who needs this crap work when most users strip the stock rom and remove bloatware. Snapdragon800 IS FAST NOW.
Well, for one thing, I'm gonna need tablet mode on this beast when I'm finally able to order it. That's a big point in favor of custom ROMs, in my opinion. I also prefer to use pie controls. In addition, it just kind of offends me on principle to see these OEM ROMs that are 300, 350, or even 400+ MB in size. I'd much prefer a fully-featured ROM that still manages to trim out all the fat and run fast, like Carbon or PA, or of course, CM. Which reminds me: I just kind of prefer AOSP.

Possibly a dumb question but if I customize my homescreens with adw launcher and other things (going to try for a "hubs" look) when ICS update comes around will that ruin all the customizations? It will be a decent amount of work to get the customization done so would hate to do it and then have to redo it all in a weeks time.

yes, more than likely it will erase all of that..sorry...but ICS own launcher n skin is better anyways so you can try to customize that. plus I heard something along the lines of Google making the ICS launcher n homescreen mandatory or something like that. not sure of the details. maybe that only goes for manufacturers n other companies so they don't put their own skin on top of ICS and slow it down. they said they will be some kind of customization option though. not exactly sure what it is though.

hmmmm, well think I will wait for the update either way just in case.
adw can back up settings, but last i checked, it can't backup your homescreen configuration.
but it's just going to depend on if the ICS update needs a data wipe, if it can be flashed on top of HC, then you should be fine, otherwise, you'll just need to reinstall adw and reconfigure it.
for the comment regarding the launcher being a necessary requirement for 4.x it's not accurate, google requires that OEM's include the stock "halo (holo?)" theme in the OS to be allowed access to gaaps/market, but it basically means OEM's can still **** up the OS however they want so long as unskinned apps default to the stock theme.
so people who are expecting this to help OEM's update their **** faster, it's not going to do anything at all for anyone really, aside from making apps that don't have their own chrome/framework/skin look like stock ICS apps.
ADW does backup home configuration including icons and arrangement.
I just bought ADW EX so I hope it wasnt a waste of time and money as I absolutely love it.

Should let you revert back to Holo theme in most instances, and help to get a more uniformed look across differente devices from different manufacturer. This with the Disable App function should help the non-root user get closer to vanilla android. Good approach IMHO

i stand corrected, i looked at it last night and it does look like it does it now.
it backs them up on /sdcard though, so i would move those files to your computer or microsd card before updating so that if anything gets wiped you don't lose them

this is what i was referring to, but that does not effect the end user in any way, it's not a way for the user to choose the device theme, it introduces a default (holo) theme that developers can choose to force their apps to use (since it must be included in gaaps/market devices) and it seperates the skin/framework for OEM's to hopefully allow them to push updates quicker since they can work on their UI overlays outside of the OS itself. it also allows developers to let their app choose whatever is set as the default skin for any 4.x device, so if you have a TW or Sense device running 4.x the app can adapt to the framework for those overlays to provide the end user with a consistent UI experience if the developer chooses to do so.
however, as sense and TW dig deeper into the OS itself, this will still keep those OEM's from updating their devices even relatively quickly.
what android needs to do is sandbox the OEM overlays, and force them to release devices with vanilla android and then allow the user to install the OE skin if they choose to do so.
but being that android is made for manuf, and not end users, that's never going to happen.
THIS ROM IS BASED ON AN ALPHA CM10 BUILD BY SBRISSEN. PLEASE MONITOR ITS THREAD FOR POSSIBLE BUGS AND PROBLEMS!

PER-APP-DPI/LAYOUT This is not tablet mode! Hybrid engine allows you to target apps individually. You get to pick their actual layouts which can tranform content drastically. Keep in mind, this has nothing to do with build.prop hacks or DPI changes. We list all layouts an app brings, you choose one, its as easy as that. It does not matter if your device runs itself in Phone-, Phablet or Tablet-UI, your apps will always look as you like. On top of that you can scale apps, to fit your screen, that way you can even bring full fledged tablet apps and make them run perfectly. Nothing will break, nothing will shrink, your market will be fine. Additionally we have rewritten many parts of the android framework and fixed countless of AOSP bugs to make way for these modifications - our "tablet mode" runs better on a phone than on a real tablet, that is guaranteed.
PER-APP-COLOR Paranoidandroids newest invention. Define apps in your regular hybrid panel. See your phone fade into the color definition of your current app, press home or go elsewhere and it fades back. Create as many combinations you like, you can even dabble with opacity. This feature is made possible by our hybrid engine, which is unique to this rom.
To be honest, this is not tablet mode at all, it has nothing to do with silly build.prop hacks. This is the first and only Android rom to feature true Hybrid mode. This rom lets you scale and project every app, every widget, even systemcomponents individually. Remember, android is modular, everything is an app: Lockscreen, navigationbar, dialogs, popups, keyboards, widgets, and your regular apps of course. Apps have the capability to switch into various designs or layouts according to the device they run on. This can result in a complete new experience as many apps will transform to the better.
Now for every element that you like chose a mode (PhoneUI, Phablet/Nexus-7UI, TabletUI) and/or a size. You are 100% independent of the system DPI which runs nicely in whatever value it has been assigned to. You do not need to boot your phone into a certain DPI. Neither will most of the changes you apply require a reboot. You will not suffer from the myriads of troubles which normally haunt you under build.prop tablet mode. Your market, phone, etc. will all work, apps won't shrink on you unless you shrink them yourself. This project will entirely transform your device, but retain the aesthetics and the feel of your phone.

I have a feeling this is going to be a recurring question in every ROM thread for the Note 2. If its an AOSP based ROM(or not based on TouchWiz) you can bet it won't have any of the bells and whistles of the TW S-Pen, but you'll at least have the normal touch functionality of it. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but that was my understanding.
So if it's an AOSP ROM, unless it says something in the OP about cool S-Pen features that they implemented, just think of your S-Pen as a second finger. And if it's based on TW...chances are YES it does have all of the S-Pen features.

First off I love this rom!! I ran Notta's port on my Fascinate and S3!!! For a alpha build this thing is solid!! Spen works great, but I do have one request. Is there anyway a script could be made so when you removed the spen the nav buttons would pop up and disable hardware keys? That's really the only thing the spen needs for functionality since gestures do not work... such as drawing a less than sign to go back. Thx

Looks amazing great work! For me I don't even use the spen but I am hooked on multi Window that is the only thing now that I've come to appreciate and couldn't live without. Can't wait until someone either makes an app that does it or they build it into cm or some other aosp build.

Modus Operandi
Have you ever wished that all of your favorite skilled devs on XDA would all get together and collaborate to make an amazing ROM? That was the genesis behind Team Synergy when we founded a few years ago. Synergy unites the wide range of various skills of numerous devs including eschelon, TrevE, Ziggy471, Virus, Mr. X, freeza, NxtGenCowboy, and others. Our goal is to provide a fully optimized ROM that runs insanely fast, looks clean, and includes our special under-the-hood tweaks that all around kick a$$. SynergyROM is what you wanted your phone to be like right out of the box!
With millions of XDA thread views and hundreds of thousands of downloads, Synergy is a name you can trust. SynergyROM often has mods found nowhere else, and our work has made the front page of XDA on numerous occasions. For example, we were the first to bring Godmode to the EVO 3D, we were the ones who originally found and killed CarrierIQ (remember that scandal?), the first to port PDroid to a 4.1 Touchwiz ROM, the first to port multiwindow from the Note 2 to the S3, the only team to properly create fully automated multicarrier support for the S3, the very first to create fully floating re-sizable windows on the S3, and we solved IMEI loss issues for the S3 – not to mention countless other tweaks written and created by us. We’re excited to see what we can create for the S4!
The ROM
*** Currently only available for the Verizon S4. More carriers to be supported once we get a working AROMA ***
Android Jelly Bean 4.2.2 - Verizon build I545VRUAMDK
Fully Deodexed, Zipaligned, Busybox, Debloated, SuperSU, etc
Ziggy Kernel - Currently a work in progress as Ziggy always wants to spend a lot of time making it all just right
***Kernel source: http://projects.ziggy471.com/projects/ziggy471-sgs4-jb/repository
Samsung loggers blocked!
*** IF YOU AREN'T USING SYNERGY, YOUR ACTIONS ARE BEING LOGGED AND SENT TO SERVERS IN THE US AND ASIA. SYNERGY IS THE ONLY ROM TO BLOCK THIS
Carriers check to make sure your CSCs, ringtones, bookmarks, APKs, etc all match factory stock - otherwise they flag you. Synergy is the only ROM that bypasses this
ROM has been run through Team Synergy's exclusive memory optimization toolkit which decreases RAM load, improves ROM speed (Synergy is faster than stock), and imprints our own signature on each file
Ongoing wifi notification gone ( The PROPER way, by killing the actual service. Not by just deleting the icons, which drains battery since the service keeps trying to load nonstop)
SEAndroid notifications gone (Again, the PROPER way. You should not just delete/freeze the apk since this is needed for proper Android security)
TrevE Synergized Wifi Tether working right out of the box!
Synergized boot animation, made by our boy wrx (A little choppy on first boot only while the ROM unpacks itself. Nothing I can do about that)
"Installer" mode gone when plugging in via USB. MTP now mounts instantly rather than waiting for the installer mode to time out
All apps allowed in multiwindow, done nateively in framework. No need for a 3rd-party app!
4x5 launcher with 4x6 app drawer
Stock Android 4.2 camera added with 13mp support (1080 video recording works great, 480 and 720 disabled at the moment) - Samsung camera is also still included
3G/4G network speed enchanced with our special tweaks
Exclusive Synergy profiles and build scripts
RAM block read ahead
Infinite scrolling in app drawer
NFC works from lockscreen (did not include screen off with this mod for security reasons)
Image quality upgraded to 100%
Modded Youtube which includes screen off playback - by theos0o
4-in-1 reboot
1% battery mod
Added more notification toggles, including one for Wifi since Verizon disables it by default
Location reticle removed from statusbar
Modded MMS (screen on/off toggle, scheduled messaging, plus more!)
Increasing ringtone removed
Removed constant dim "eye" icon from statusbar. Brighter eye icon still comes on, but only when the service is actually running
Stock Android 4.2.2 keyboard added - Samsung keyboard is still included
Some default settings changed on first boot automatically to match popular preferences
Removed the annoying prompts to install software when plugged in over USB
Ad blocking from one of the best hosts files available for Android
ADB shell as root
Build.prop tweaks
init.d
Updated apps
Updated Google system apks
Many more of the miscellaneous tweaks, additions, and enhancements that you've come to love and expect from Team Synergy

Kanging
Fellow devs and users: XDA rule #12 states that “if you are developing something that is based on the work of another member, you MUST first seek their permission, and you must give credit to the member whose work you used.”
Since Synergy tends to be the most popular and widely-used ROM and frequently contains mods found nowhere else, we’ve had lots of issues in the past with our work/logic/scripts being kanged. Just because Android itself is open source, that does not mean that all the code written by us can be taken for free. For example, if we write a script that creates a new method during boot to control a process outside of the Android OS (like we did with our EFS backup for the S3, for instance), the code in that script is OUR intellectual property and cannot be taken without OUR permission.
Effective immediately, if you wish to use our work, you MUST PM either myself or TrevE and receive permission for EACH MOD you use, every time. No more burying our name in some ‘Thanks’ post with 50 other names and considering that free license to take everything we do in perpetuity. Failure to comply will result in moderators being contacted and the potential shutting down your thread, as set forth in the XDA rules.
Legal Stuffs
Yeah yeah... I know you guys already know this but it's just one of those things you gotta say anyway: Bad things can happen to your phone when you flash custom ROMs and mods. We at SynergyROM are not responsible if anything bad happens to you, your associates, or your device by flashing this ROM or any other modifications posted in this thread or others.

Why thank you
In all honestly, we created our SVN repo for the S4 within one hour of people receiving their phones from FedEx. But we all got bogged down with other projects / family / work / vacations... plus it takes a while to do things right
But it's game on now :good:
Ran these ROMs on the S3 and Thunderbolt. Virus was the reason the Thunderbolt was relevant for me. Synergy was the only reason I kept it so long. Good to see you guys here

In all honestly, in order to properly do multicarrier, we need AROMA. But we'll get you guys up and running in no time soon enough.
I haven't had too much of a chance to look into other carriers yet, but if it's anything like the S3 it should be real easy for us. We learned how to do multicarrier the proper way on the S3 without aggravating the carriers with nonsense props like changing carrier name to 'LOL' (<-- terrible idea)

longtime Gnex user, excited that the dev community is picking up here. Heard good things about Synergy!
just a note. Since booting up i've had 3 hard reboots during simple setting up procedures (1 occurred immediately after the setup process, the other 2 during updating apps in market). I'm thinking it's a kernel issue? I'll flash Faux's latest and report back. Looking forward to this!
Coming from an S3, I was hesitant between waiting for the HTC One for Verizon or getting the S4
Now that Esh has officially created this thread, I think I know which phone I'll be choosing

What is it and why a CM 9?
Jellybean, in my opinion, despite what the masses will have one believe, is a buggy, slow mess on our device. Whether it's a 4.2 AOSP or 4.1 TW. I've run both for weeks at a time, and every time that new-car-smell wears off, I realize that I'm sacrificing speed and stability simply to say "I run jelly bean!" Although I very much hope those intelligent, compassionate, and diligent devs keep working on them to overcome the CM kernel mess of the past few months and Samsung's gimping of our 4.1 FW.
This Kang is all CM9's stability, speed, and battery life with all the, imo, meaningful enhancements from 4.1+. If you're frustrated with JB builds or you want to give your old Note to a girlfriend/wife/mom that isn't so hot with technology, this ROM is one you can put on it and not worry about, while it still being so tricked out that it will impress even cutting edge Android dorks from XDA.

Whoa! Where did this come from?!?! Definitly Giving this a go! Thank you! But a trusty friend dev of mine is making cm10 4.1.2 with all the sources added so no reboots!
I must wholesomely thank you for this. I love jellybean both Aosp based and TW, and love the devs who pump them out. Because of this I've flashed EVERY rom that has come through these threads, old and new. There are a select few JB roms that are "stable" and plenty speedy, but I didn't realize how well equipped ICS was for our phone until I recently went back and flashed an old ICS rom...best choice ever. Now I am going to be giving this a go. Much appreciated man :good:
Looks cool. Nice job. Definitely going to try this out

This is definitely legit. Not to be a stickler, but I turned off the animations.
Anyways, great rom. I think I'll be sticking around for a while on this one. The speed itself is blowing me away.
My man! I reflashed the Telus JB rom, and while better than the ATT, it still blows compared to ICS. Gonna give this a go ASAP!

Rom is faster than any JB rom I have messed with!!! Did I also mention no reboots and stupid bluetooth issues

This well established Android distribution treats development differently than any other to further our Android platform as a whole. This is the fastest source built ROM you will find on this forum, and also the only one to utilize our unique build system and a custom LLVM 3.5 suite based toolchain globally.
Here is our very well supported Issue Tracker.
We utilize a plethora of unique optimizations in a build system unlike any other:
Utilizing the LLVM CLANG CI globally, working heavily with upstreams with a goal of furthering our entire Android platform.
Consistently updated upstream toolchain module source with our custom backports, fixes, and optimizations applied in a patch at build time.
Fully built utilizing Link Time Optimization and Polly optimizations (another custom ROM first). Feel free to google these a bit.
Much of our source have code fixes, cleanups, and many minor optimizations to set us even further ahead of the community. These are too generous to even speak of here.
Optimizations are toggled on and off based on device for the best experience we can achieve for your device without sacrificing stability
Many Qcom optimizations and AOSP master (upstream) optimizations and fixes using device specifications to determine usage.
Fully built utilizing strict aliasing and isognu++11 mode.
Utilizing all O4 optimizations (Optimization Level 4) including LTO (with binutils plugins), and additionally LLVM Polly.
Of course we also have several neat UI features, including but not limited to:
T-Mobile Theme Engine.
DPI Wizard (no junk like build.prop tweaks).
Quick Settings panel customizations.
Live network stats in your statusbar.
Button backlight customizations.
Hardware button customizations.
Volume button customizations.
Many more being added during the nightly builds.
link removed[/url]
Our thanks go out to all the open source developers who made our work possible.
Below is an ever-incomplete list of some of the 'indirect' contributors to our ROMs:
The Android Open Source Project
LLVM CI
Linux Foundation
Code Aurora Forum
CyanogenMod Inc.
Chainfire
The entire 8960 CM team for making this device relevant still!!
Many more!
Thanks for the new work
Thanks! I'm testing this out. It's quite nice!
The only issue I've run into in a few hours of operation is that I changed the App Switcher hw key to be Open/Close Menu. Then, pressing that on the home screen shows a UI with a couple of options. But, when I press on Settings, it doesn't do anything.
Definitely not a big issue since I always use Nova anyway (and it works fine in Nova), but just wanted to pass that along.

Testing fixes for that today...
Other notes on today's builds...
Today's builds should have fixes for most of the app related issues that have been reported thus far. Only exception is the FC that was reported with email app. That should be fixed in tomorrows builds.
Sent from my One Xl using Tapatalk
Checked the OP, I was just curious if there was anything not working on the ROM. Of course the work is much appreciated, I was just looking to flash something new for tomorrow. I just won't be around my computer tomorrow if I need any kind of fixes.
Only issue we still have that I know of is swype FC's. However all our servers are down for maintenance this morning. And haven't come back up yet

Has anyone who tried this ROM had the issue with the radio? I.E., the radio gets borked and the phone number comes up as all zeroes in the about phone section. That was the one reason I was never able to use a CM10 rom. Every one I tried borked my radio so I've been stuck with the stock ROM. I would love to get on a more traditional Android based ROM, but I can't have the radio problem.
Also, does this require any special version of CWM recovery?
Thanks....

If you have this issue on cm11 you will have it here as well.
You need a newer cwm or twrp capable of flashing. I would assume there one floating around here somewhere for CM11.

Everything seems to be working fine. No problems with the borked radio so far. I do have a couple of questions about some options that used to be available in Android 4.2 and 4.3 based ROMs. I don't know if these were things that the ROM developers added or if they were there by default and Google took them away in android 4.4.
1.) There used to be more options for the status bar. Things like adding am/pm to the clock, changing the battery icon, etc. Were these options that Google took away or custom options that the ROM developers added? If they are custom, are there any plans to add them back?
2.) There used to be the option that if you pulled down the right side of the notification window, it would bring up the Quick Settings tiles by default. Again, was this an option that Google took away or custom options that the ROM developers added? If they are custom, are there any plans to add them back?
3.) Any plans to add an option to wake the screen using the volume buttons to help reduce overusage of the power button? Not a big deal, just curious.
4.) Not a big deal here, but how do you turn off the CRT animation when putting the phone to sleep? I know it's in there somewhere, but I can't remember which setting it is under.
Probably think of more eventually

Thanks for the feedback, glad to hear its running well. I never get much feedback here as there's a pretty limited userbase. Keep in mind CFX was designed to be minimal, as close to aosp as is functional and minimal set of important features.
1. That's all custom add-ons. We may add some eventually..
2. Custom addons as well but this is something I'd like to add as well.
3. Also custom, also something I'd like to get added.
4. There's no option here to kill just that animation. Under developer options in settings(tap build # in about phone 7 times to expose this menu) you can disable all animations.

Thanks for the answers. It is a nice smooth ROM and the things I asked about are not really a big deal. It won't keep me from using it because I finally found an AOSP rom that doesn't bork my radio.
Now I just need to figure out how to flash a few modified stock .apks. My updater script doesn't seem to work with Kit Kat or my current version of recovery. I may have to try and remember how to do it manually. It's been so long that i've forgotten the steps.
Just wanted to pop in and say while I would love to give you feedback on the ROM, I have no feedback to give. It has run without a hitch for everything I have used it for. I have no idea what you guys are adding in the latest nightlies, but the version I am using from February 8 is about as stable a ROM as I have ever used. I can't see how any of the newer nightlies could work better. I have no plans to update to a newer version until I see some significant additions, like the ones I mentioned a few posts up.
A couple of side questions. If you were me would you enable ART or stick with Dalvik? Is ART still in the infant stages at this point?
Also, what does the CFXTools.apk do? I always cleanup the ROMs I install by deleting apps, sounds, etc. that I have no use for. I was hesitant to remove the CFXTools.apk because I wasn't sure what it did. In looking inside the .apk, I think it is a weather app because I noticed all the .png files reference weather conditions.
Thanks for the great ROM. Others should really try this one if they want Kit Kat on their Inc4G.

At that point CFXtools was an unimplemented weather app and all of our internal shorcuts and java goodies...its a holding place for all things cfx. So don't delete it
ART here is stable as ive ever seen on 4.4. AOSP has moved to art exclusivley upstream now. I will warn you though, there are some apps that just wont work on ART. Also when you switch first bot will take 10-15 minutes, and then you should reboot 2 more times to let it finish optimizing apps. After that you should be solid. This procedure will need to be done again if you flash a newer nightly.
Oh and FYI...ART is fast!
Sent from my SCH-i705 using Tapatalk
Thanks again for the info. I went ahead and switched to ART. Every app I use seems to work fine. The one thing I noticed was that ART uses more space than Dalvik. I lost about 115mb of space switching to ART. For now I don't think that is a big deal. Apps do seem to launch a bit faster. The one I really noticed it on was PowerAmp. I'll be curious to see what it does for battery life.

Do you have anyone involved with Codefire that has any theming knowledge? I'm trying to change the blue dialer numbers to white and can't seem to figure out how to do that. I changed all the dial_num_*_wht .png files in the dialer.apk and teleservice.apk, but that only changed the numbers for the incall dialpad. It did not change the numbers for the main dialer. I've looked through a bunch of the .apks trying to find reference to the dial_num files but so far have only found them in the dialer and teleservice .apks and that didn't work. Thought maybe you had someone on staff who might know what I am overlooking. Thanks....
GPS and Ext sd card
Anyone having any issues with GPS locking on? Any suggestions?
Also get sd card unavailable, have tried to set path in root browser to /storage but no joy. Any suggestions?
Installed yesterday and is running very smooth.
Thanks
Sad day in the CFX world. CFX as we know it now is dead. Our 2 main leaders have parted ways with a difference of opinion in the future direction of the project. Thanks to all who have participated in this.
Mods its time to close up shop here.
