SO has bought the S6 and color me unimpressed. Yes the device is light, designed well (the 'iphone speaker' copy is hilarious) with a good feel in hand and camera is indeed fast. Battery life on Vodafone 3G in Mumbai, is strictly average (blame it on the network at office/home). Phone feels fluid and fast and in places note 4 tends to lag a bit, there is no real animation lag on s6.

However that said, it has nothing that makes me want to buy it. My trifecta of (6plus, note 4, nexus 6) bury it on battery life and that is a sticking point for me. Plus iPhone and note 4 easily keep up by themselves, on the camera front. Before someone argues about the iPhone 6, don't bother. I am yet to come across a camera phone, that is as consistent under any condition. It's the closest to effortless point and shoot and reasonably quality is assured. Try using note 4 under semi-dark conditions and movement heavy atmosphere.

Video is where the phone truly shines (s6), but note 4 is literally just inches behind. All in all i think i can probably even sit out the year, till Note 6.

Well I like 5" devices ... easy to hold. Only drawback is battery life. Rest is rock solid.

Note 4 available on ebay for 37k press suggest if this is a good buy and what all things to check upon delivery
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dr.ketan:
37K may be exynos(N910C) version not SD (Indian N910G).

- Check IMEI number and it should be same as on box and should display same on dialing *#06#

rest things you needs to check is it is genuine and with bill and warranty.

If it is exynos then you have to clear that warranty can be claimed to Indian service center or not as exynos version usually imported from overseas and Samsung india may not give service here.

If it is so then you can think about purchasing Indian version from gray market if difference is not much.

[MENTION=4696762]darkera13[/MENTION] has released an alpha port of galaxy 6 edge UI for note 3.... For the moment it looks great in alpha stage, and seems pretty smooth in the review video. I hope somone will start this porject soon on note 4 as well :D. Even the camera is completely ported.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] pratik_193:
Doc can give us this...
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dr.ketan:
Nope. You know I never prefer s series ui. I better feel with original ui. Yes some s6 features are cool then nothing wrong to port. But I don't think it have anything except launcher and theme. Will like to use that if possible.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] siamr:
But i think this ui is unlike any other previous TW ui's of any s or even note series. I think its a complete overhauled TW in s6. Not just the theme or the launcher. The smoothness of ui is almost like a nexus, no hiccups or lags like all other TW released before s6. So IMO it would be great to have this on our note 4's . :o Opinions ?

Yes India is newer. Also it lacks pinning option that suggest it's same like old build (boc3 of other variant)

[Galaxy Note 4 General] m4gg0t:
Actually you are wrong. We have the pinning option on the indian rom. It's under security settings. I just found it a few days ago.

It's been several weeks, since lollipop came out. How are your phones performing now? I have not picked up my note 4 in a couple of weeks, using my n6, but wanting to get back to it.

Has battery life etc settled for you all? I am going to be formatting my phone ( reset blah blah blah) and just run whats bare bones necessary.

When i used it last, the wakelocks were driving me insane and the SOT was horrible.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] guitarmafia:
I dint reset my phone after the update (not that i recommend not doing it) i have been getting 5+ sot.. But that may be because it includes at least one movie too which consumes less battery as compared to apps with white background such as browser.

An odd exchange problem I was facing, seems to be resolved with the mail client. This was the first thing I checked, as I was using Outlook to keep that account active.

Yes it is good to buy.. i already bought it from ebay working like a charm.... and the seller name is nasirm15.... i got sm n910g singapore version
[Galaxy Note 4 General] m4gg0t:
I had the Indian version installed on my phone but I didn't receive the latest OTA because my firmware is not aligned to INU its aligned to SingTel. From what i understand if you need to aligned you CSC to Indian INU to receive the OTA. It's not really important really, you can just flash via Odin.

Btw, heres the link to the Indian INU BOD2 rom

But can i install OTA update after flashing to inu rom
[Galaxy Note 4 General] m4gg0t:
I think you can still install a OTA from your base rom CSC but not from the CSC of the rom you flashed. Maybe someone with more knowledge about this give more info.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] hashcheck:
yes CSC determines OTA but needs to be set after first flash of rom
[Galaxy Note 4 General] sandeeppathak007:
Can u please share the link, i am not able to find this seller , also u r using it since how many days

[Galaxy Note 4 General] srinathmc:
Help needed.. i have installed INU rom in my XSP rom note 4... how to change the firmware CSC to inu without rooting to get future OTA updates
[Galaxy Note 4 General] jayesh:
Some initial thoughts.

The phone on the overall seems to be showing improved battery life (for me at least). I averaged 4.5 hours SOT today, with around 22 hours totally for it to hit 20 percent. This is far better, than what i had with the previous build. Wakelocks seem to have reduced by a good margin. At any given time, they were always the largest battery consumption i had.

However the email client (Samsung mail client and not gmail) , seems to have developed a stutter in scrolling. Perhaps i am overreaching here after using the nexus 6, which is just a smooth scroll all over, but there is a definite deterioration here. It's nothing major, but all the same its a bit irritating, as this is the second most used app on my phone naturally. For some random reason, the gmail client requires an external apk to configure exchange accounts on the gmail client itself and that invariably causes exchange related wakelocks. Camera seems exquisite as ever and has rapidly replaced my iPhone for all but very odd circumstances.

Another odd thing. The note 4 stopped reading my 128 gig sandisk card. I tried it on a friend's phone (htc m8) and it worked fine there, but here it would not read. Used it via a card-reader and it read fine. Just took backup, formatted it via the phone and moved my pictures/videos back. No issues after that.

So far not been able to poke around the standard settings or more, but it seems like a solid mini update. Two of my largest issues have been fixed
[Galaxy Note 4 General] m4gg0t:
Using the BOD2 update the phone seems faster and snappier. The lag that was present in BOC6 in the sound and notifications page is gone also.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] bala_gamer:
Just came here to post the very same. The performance is more fluid.

Texted from Note 4
[Galaxy Note 4 General] maksharma231:
Yup, overall the performance has improved.

One strange issue tho. If I open any action memo pinned to homescreen, it takes a lot of time to pop up ~2-3 seconds.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] sandeeppathak007:
Hi all i am able to see that note 4 is on ebay for 35k but that is exnoyus one and i m able to get note 4 using corporate discount for 45k with indian warranty

Place to buy note 4 charger

Hi guys,

I have heard that note 4 charger supports quick charge and charges very fast . I am using Sony Xperia Z3 and the supplied charger doesnt support. But with note 4 charger ,z3 charges in just more than an hour. SO i decided to buy one ...where can i buy it in india (chennai) and what is the price ??

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Sharp-Razr:
As of now, the fast charger is available only in the retail phone pack & not as a separate accessory. Fast chargers use variable voltages and are designed to be used with specific gadgets they are bundled with. I don't recommend using it with other products. Even my Nexus 6 comes with a fast charger but has **different** charging voltages compared to the Note 4 charger.

If you wish you can buy the Samsung 10W/2A charger that charges even large batteries pretty quickly. I use it to charge my tablets.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] prudhivisekhar:
Is the root process for bod2 same as previous ? using twrp ..
[Galaxy Note 4 General] pchetan2:
yes ...but a guy told me that he was using note 4 charger without any problems with Xperia Z3 ....Z3 is qualcomm quick charge 2.0 compaitable ,,will there be any problem after long usage ??
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Mussels84:
just because it works, doesnt mean its using the 9 volt quick charge - it could just be using the 2.0A 5 volt and charging quicker than whatever other charger he used.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Sharp-Razr:
Check your Experia charger specs for the output voltages. If they match the Samsung fast charger output then there's there's no harm. Otherwise you run a risk of damaging the phone. In the end it's your wish.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] pchetan2:
it is ok ..i will check ..Thanks for the replies

[Galaxy Note 4 General] v_square:
The only gripe I had with previous lollipop builds was the "Multitasking Key Lag". Well I must say it has been sorted out to a fair extent with BOD2. Still there's some stuttering and lag once in a while, but not pronounced as before.

And yes, on a side note, if you don't use the multi window all that often then just keep this feature off. Toggle it when you need it from the quick settings. You will immediately feel the difference with your multitasking key.

[Galaxy Note 4 General] prudhivisekhar:
Yes... Touchwiz is super.. But phone feels so little in size....
[Galaxy Note 4 General] m4gg0t:
Yea i feels so small now since im so used to the note 4. I absolutely hate the s6 edge and find it stupid. I actually find the design not so appealing anymore now that I've tried it.

Battery Life

Guys...how is the battery life after Lollipop update in general and the recent BOD update in particular. Google play services seems to be sapping my battery life like anything. Running out of battery life before close of office hours is difficult to gulp. With the same usage, I used to have 50% on KitKat.

Anybody else on the same boat? Many people have mentioned that the battery life increased dramatically after factory reset. Anybody here had a similar experience? Want to keep that as the last option though.....just way too many apps and data restoration activity.

Any pointers on resolving this without factory reset? Also, do launchers like Hola make a significant increase in battery consumption? Changed to Hola after the lollipop update...
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Mussels84:
BOD3 is great for battery life, and yes a factory reset is a massive help. Too many things stay running from kitkat that shouldnt be there and screw things up.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] needydude:
OMG that is AMAZING!

I turned off multi window and now the multitasking comes up so much faster!

Thank you SO much for that tip....been using Samsung's since the s3 and NEVER thought to do that!

Hat's off to you good sir!
[Galaxy Note 4 General] v_square:
Oh please. I'm too young too be called 'Sir'. Enjoy your new multitasking experience.[emoji4]
[Galaxy Note 4 General] jayesh:
Well Note 4 battery life is pretty much evened out and it's never been better. Very stringent use today and i barely had to even glance at the phone, as the phone just sips while on standby. (Trying a new trick... set my phone for only wcdma and this has helped my network coverage issues immensely with vodafone mumbai)

I even left my personal no at home today and barely noticed it. Thinking if this continues, i might sell my 6 plus and nexus 6.

[Galaxy Note 4 General] m4gg0t:
