Modus Operandi
After tens of thousands of downloads and millions of thread views accross multiple devices, Team Synergy has now expanded their operations to include the VZW Galaxy S3 :D
Team Synergy unites the various skills of numerous devs including TrevE, Ziggy471, Virus, Mr. X, freeza, as well as yours truly. 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.

Kernel Info
- Coming Soon
- Ziggy471 and Mr. X make some of the best customized Android kernels on the planet! Their kernel work has even been incorporated in the CyanogenMod tree. For the VZW GS3 SynergyROM they have teamed up to create what will likely turn out to be nothing short of magical. It's still under development, but will be available soon. Stay tuned!

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 your device by flashing this ROM or any other modifications posted in this thread or others.
