Off topic but does our NOTE 4 updated to lollipop compatible with GEAR VR if shipped from outside INDIA...need confirmation about it...any help appreciated..thanks
[Galaxy Note 4 General] srini09:
Can confirm that factory reset of the phone worked wonders. I had done every other thing before that (Clearing cache, clearing data of few known rogue apps etc etc). Nothing worked. A factory reset and complete restoration of apps from google backup (lollipop works wonders here) did the trick. Can confirm now that the battery life is much better than KitKat. I am one of the heaviest users there is with no apps disabled, almost all apps on constant sync (4 Gmail accounts, twitter, fb, insta etc). I am getting a full day of battery life with 20% battery remaining before I hook it up to the charger again. SOT of 4+ Hrs and call time of 1.5 hours. That is awesome IMHO.

Can anyone confirm this -

I charge my battery to 100% with phone ON, calibarate with *#0228#, still 100%, when i switch OFF my phone & connect charger, the battery charge level goes to 90%...

anyone else with this problem ?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Mussels84:
could be an early sign of a faulty battery. my note 10.1 is kinda similar but at the other end - when it hits 15% it drops 1% a minute, and powers off. if i boot it back up straight away it says 14% and works fine -.-
[Galaxy Note 4 General] pratik_193:

Googlne now-Travel cards

Hi guys,

need your expert advice. Prior to using note 4 i was using s4 and i used to get the travel cards in google now. i remember i never had to switch on the GPS for this. i used to get the traffic updates at my regular office commute time...

However with note 4 i am unable to get any of the travel cards, i understand i have to switch on the gps to get location based card.... can anyone pls help me out with this??

am i missing something??

Also in a friend's HTC he can still see travel cards without switching on his GPS...

TIA

Sanjeev
[Galaxy Note 4 General] guitarmafia:
Google now basically tries to learn about ur travels and provide cards accordingly.. For example in my case , i connected my phone to my car through Bluetooth and navigated to my gym in the evening. Since then google now gives me the traffic details and option to navigate to the gym when i get into my car at home and connect my phone. And it gives me the option to navigate back home when i get back into my car after the gym. Without turning on wifi or gps. So basically google now learns about your travels through navigation data and wifi/Bluetooth data. Try navigating to ur destination with Google maps a few times to trigger it. It also helps if you are connected to wifi at your home. Also check ur google now settings. And i think u have to give access to google in the gps settings which might drain a bit of ur battery.

Sent from my SM-N910G
[Galaxy Note 4 General] sanju71821:
Thanks.. Thats a good idea.. I will try navigating to my home and back to office few days and will see if that corrects the issue.

I already have my home and office wifi as well as my car bluetooth in google now location settings.... lets see how it is after 2-3 days

Not available in India yet and no its not value for money or even the best card. 128 gig cards continue to make a lot more sense, even now.

Is it ok to buy a, imported note4 from ebay and if its a exanoyes version then can i change the rom on that

Please suggest
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dr.ketan:
You can't flash Indian rom on exynos. But there is no difference in rom as far as stock is concern. Just custom rom you may find little less compare to SD. Also confirm it's not n910h as that is exynos but have no lte. Better go for n910c if exynos is choice.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] sandeeppathak007:
Thanks a lot doc also is there any known hardware issues that i shall look for in note4

And would i need to flash any specific rom in order to receive future updates...
[Galaxy Note 4 General] dr.ketan:
First check bill and warranty. Though Samsung doesn't give international warranty so you may not get warranty in India but still that assures it's genuine.

Second thing check physically not damaged

Third check IMEI

It should be same when you dial *#06# and one on box as well under battery compartment.

Fourth dial *#0*# and go through all available tests specially sensor.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] sandeeppathak007:
About warranty it is seller warranty as per ebay listing

Will check the rest of details , thanks a lot for your help :)

[Galaxy Note 4 General] jayesh:
Seriously question. After the lollipop update, is it even remotely possible to downgrade directly via odin back to KK? I was searching on the net and found an 'ANK3' firmware build. I am going to be abroad for several weeks and given how moody lollipop is, was hoping to downgrade to Kitkat.

KK and this phone had way better battery life atleast for me with amazing standby. I could get through a very rough day and a half, before i even needed to hook it back to the charger. I am currently on the latest lollipop build and completely stock.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] srini09:
Factory reset done?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] jayesh:
Went ahead and did the downgrade anyway, since i had nothing to lose. A day later and this is the result

Phone feels good again.

Hi Amit,

I ordered Gear VR for S6 from Ebay, they are delivering it to me uing USPS, since you had also ordered can you let me know how much is the octroi charge that i have to pay.

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] amitoberoi:
Hi Kristech,

I actually ordered the vr from Samsung directly and got it delivered to a friends place in USA. From there he sent thru courier and the courier and import duty charges total was usd247. Sorry I don't remember the break up of the amount as it was a long time ago. But as far as I remember fedex wanted a form 38 to deliver the vr to Noida where I stay so I got it collected from their facility in delhi, so i think I did not pay any octroi.

Sm-n910u bri

Dear Friends,

I have bought a the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 in Taiwan ( SM-N910U BRI, PDA : N910UXXU1ANK7, CSC : N910UZZT1ANK7 , Exynos)

When back to India i had a small OTA update of 29 Mb after restart it become PDA : N910UXXU1AOA3, CSC : N910UZZT1AOA3 with status Official

Now i flashed lollipop PDA : N910UXXU1BOD4, CSC : N910UZZT1BOD4 via Odin since no update for AOA3 is still released

Now my note 4 is upgraded to lollipop with my previous apps and data working good , no lags, cache is only 2.98 mb plus LTE option is now enabled

my Note 4 status is still unrooted, stock, Official , Knox 0 and and have not made a factory reset after lollipop Upgrade.

I have three questions

1. Does switching to Different PDA, CSC Within same Region taiwan (BRI) has any ill effects ? ( As I don't see any apparent change in Mobile or WiFi Signals)

2. Do i need to factory reset after Odin Flash ?

3. As i did not factory reset after Lollipop update i still have Kitkat bloatware apps, will doing factory reset reduce atleast some of them
[Galaxy Note 4 General] m4gg0t:
I seem to have encountered a problem with wifi. I can connect to the wifi but ny speeds are horrrible and are lock to less then 1mb. I normally connect to my router at home and i het about 200mbps, now im getting less then 1mb. Sometimes i can't even load a webpage or load the Facebook app.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Sharp-Razr:
Not necessarily a problem with the phone, could be the router that only connects at low speeds due to a variety of reasons like signal strength, quality distance from router, signal interference etc.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] m4gg0t:
Can't be the router when it happens on almost every router connection. And im 100% sure it's my phone when ever other device like my mac book pro and my gf s5 all work fine. Soi think my wifi modem on my note 4 had something happen to it, cause it was working fine one day then now it's been like this for days.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Sharp-Razr:
So then you're probably looking at a backup, re-flash and reset? I've never had a problem with routers from multiple makes ie Asus, Linksys/ Cisco, Dlink.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] jayesh:
Tried just resetting the router? Failing which try changing channels/settings (for e.g. if its set to AC only, set it to B/G/N/AC? Try it on 5 ghz instead of 2.4 or vice versa? )
[Galaxy Note 4 General] m4gg0t:
Neither do i, but this happen recently only, was working fine before. So i have really no idea why.

---------- Post added at 04:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:08 AM ----------

Did all that, but still the same. Getting 0.35mbps when should be getting 200mbps. Maybe i have to factory reset my phone then re-flash theb reset again.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Sharp-Razr:
Give the reflash, reset procedure a shot, though I still think this may be due to signal quality and/or interference from a neighboring router or even cordless phone. Many cordless phones use the same 2.4 GHz bands as do WI-fi routers.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] m4gg0t:
I was standing by the router, getting full signals. I do notice though that in the wifi menu it shows my link speed at 5mbps and never goes up.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Sharp-Razr:
Use this app to decipher what's going on under the hood: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.farproc.wifi.analyzer&hl=en
[Galaxy Note 4 General] m4gg0t:
The thing is the app shows everything is ok. Nothing out of order. Even now my hot spot on my note 4 doesn't work.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Sharp-Razr:
Have you tried switching off the hotspot and connecting to the router? Is it possible for you to use another router only to double check?

Obviously either the router or the phone which is acting up. Since the router is working with other gadgets like your laptop, etc, you can do a full reset of the phone after a backup. If that still doesnt work, reflash the ROM and reset phone.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Mussels84:
Nice and vague post.

What firmware? stock? OTA? Have you custom flashed modems or bootloader?

What wifi standard does your router use? What security? What speed is your wifi connected at according to the phone?
[Galaxy Note 4 General] m4gg0t:
My router is the asus RT-AC68U connected to it via 2.4ghz band sitting 2ft away from it. Signal is full bars. Just the other day i was getting ~150mbps then suddenly it started acting up. Wifi connection speed shows 5mbps on my phone. I speed test with my mac book pro in my room i get ~150mbps on the 2.4ghz band. Im running stock fw Indian BOD2 lollipop. This problem is not just with my homes wifi, it's on almost every wifi connection i use, which leads me to believe it's thw phone.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Mussels84:
that router is AC1900, which supports 600Mb on the 2.4GHz band (in theory, 300Mb with our phones) and 1,300Mb on the AC band.

Using 2.4GHz seems an odd choice if you're having speed issues, being stuck at 150Mb on your devices heavily implies the router is set up incorrectly - either you've used an incorrect security option (should be AES+WPA2) or you've locked it down to 20Mhz on a congested channel.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] m4gg0t:
I have it set up to offer the most speed. But I'm not getting the speed i used to get, and this was an over night change. So it leads me to think it's the phone when ever other wifi device i have gets the speed. I have this issue with every wifi hot-spot with my phone.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Sharp-Razr:
I have the DSL-AC68U which is the same router as yours except it has an ADSL/VDSL modem built in. Right now I am connected to it at 192 Mbps. Just reset your phone dude and check it out without switching on the hotspot feature.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] m4gg0t:
Yep it looks more like i have to do a factory reset on my phone.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] lycan_codex:
I am planning to switch back to Note 4 after using S6 for a month. How is the battery backup now post the lollipop update? Can the AOSP ROMs be used as a daily driver?

i just factory reset my phone and re-flashed BOD2 lollipop rom and i still have the stupid wifi issues. guess i have to get my phone looked at by samsung. sigh...
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Sharp-Razr:
Suggest you try connecting to another WiFi router before going thru the trouble of taking it to the service centre.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] m4gg0t:
done that, still the same. guess i really have to send it for repair.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] lycan_codex:

i generally get about 3.5hrs of SOT.

It's confirmed it was my WiFi dieing on my phone as i cant even turn on wifi anymore. Looks like it's time to visit the Samsung service center.

[Galaxy Note 4 General] prudhivisekhar:
Till now think it is released only for Singapore... I didnt get any updated. Checked again just now.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] Sharp-Razr:
No update yet.

Anyways, I am really happy with LP 501, after getting 2.75 days of battery life with light to moderate use., including few voice calls, mainly internet browser, WhatsApp etc. No games. :) Charge completed at around 00:00 hours on Friday (Thurs midnight) and the phone shut off automatically at 18:10 IST today.

None of my other phones have lasted this long on a single charge. The Nexus 6 lasts for a max of 1.8-2 days with the same usage pattern. Both phones have same SOC and battery capacity. Obviously Samsung has done something right. :good: Will attach the screen shot soon, the phone is charging up now.

PS - Googs is rolling out 511 now, my Nexus 5 already updated while the Nexus 6 is awaiting its turn. Wonder when Sammy will get around to it.

I have been reluctant to upgrade to Lollipop because of negative user reports but I am also looking forward to 4G especially since Airtel's prices are reasonable. If what you say is true I guess I will have to bite the bullet and upgrade to Lollipop and hope that I don't have too many problems.

[Galaxy Note 4 General] vizvin:
Agreed. It is one thing to shift to another OS ecosystem but also within the android ecospace one may shift only with regards to what he/she was looking for in a device. When you look at the note aesthetics and being called the "Note" what it really stands for is the multitasking, quickedit/annotation/spen capabilities. There really exists nothing "portable" enough in that segment. If we look at the Note to be just another phone with a big display; that's when "other" options start popping up. Agree with the Sony comment too. I owned an Xperia Ultra in the past and it was terrible. Add phantom touches to those list of issues as well.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] sandeeppathak007:
With Samsung price and availability strategy why don't we teach them a lesson and don't adopt their product on first launch

When they launched galaxy s5 and people refused it they were forced to launch the snapdragon version of s5 and that is the reason of them launching SD version of note 4 as well but still they need to learn the lesson

Also regarding iPhone yeah they are also not treating India well but what hurts is that Indian market did help a lot Samsung what it is today however apple was already strong so the expectations would be more from Samsung to do the pricing right it should have been launched around 45k
